Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family

Chapter 2642: Chapter 858: Return to Starry Sky Sea, Still an Auspicious Sign! (Part 2)

However, now that he had reached the Starry Sky Sea, Lu Changsheng planned to visit the Fu Hai Sect once more.

He wanted to see if any significant events had occurred in the Starry Sea over the years.

For example, whether the Six Paths Demon Consort had emerged from the Land of Eternal Night.

Had Shen Yiren attempted to break through to the Nascent Soul stage?

He also wanted to see if the opponent’s techniques that obscured and disrupted the heavenly secrets had weakened.

According to Lu Changsheng’s judgment, even if the opponent possessed the means to obscure and disturb his heavenly secrets, it couldn’t be maintained indefinitely, and it would certainly come at a great cost.

Thus, Lu Changsheng naturally wanted to bring along the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng and the Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror.

”Hmm.”

Xuanjian True Monarch nodded, but didn’t mention returning to the Heavenly Sword Sect to prepare.

His visit to the Great Dream Immortal City to see Lu Changsheng was already well-prepared.

...

After returning to the City Lord Mansion, Hong Lian inquired if Lu Changsheng had reached an agreement.

”Hmm.”

Lu Changsheng nodded with a smile and briefly recounted the general situation.

To this, Hong Lian was not surprised.

She simply sighed, ”It seems the war in Liang Yue is more perilous than imagined. The Heavenly Sword Sect’s urgency is understandable.”

”Indeed.”

Lu Changsheng nodded, ”Therefore, I think if there’s no opportunity in the Starry Sea, and the Sea Suppressing Ancestor doesn’t act, I’ll first visit Yue Country.”

As he spoke, the Michen Banner appeared in Lu Changsheng’s hand, ”I’ll first go back to retrieve the Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror.”

”Husband, you mentioned last time helping Chensha tame and train an Illusionary Shadow Mink. Chensha should be about the Ninth Level Foundation Establishment by now, right?”

Hong Lian suddenly recalled something and asked Lu Changsheng.

”Hmm.” Lu Changsheng nodded.

”I have some time now, husband. Why don’t you bring him and the Illusionary Shadow Mink over? I can give them some pointers.”

Hong Lian, clad in a red and gold Vermilion Bird skirt, spoke elegantly and with an ethereal beauty.

Although she was amicable and close with the Lu Family women like Ling Zixiao and Lu Miaoge,

besides Lu Changsheng, the person she cared most about was Xu Ruyin, who had awakened her in her early years.

However, Xu Ruyin had gone on a journey early on, searching for an opportunity to form her Core, and never returned, with no news whatsoever.

Faced with this situation, she could only show as much care as possible for Xu Ruyin’s son, Lu Chensha, as some form of compensation.

”Alright.”

Lu Changsheng readily agreed.

Previously, he thought Hong Lian needed time for cultivation and planned to bring Lu Chensha to her when he reached the Foundation Establishment Peak.

Since Hong Lian made the offer herself, he naturally wouldn’t refuse and was pleased to have her instruct this son.

...

Returning to Bi Lake Mountain through the Michen Banner, Lu Changsheng did not delay further.

He took the Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror, the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng, Lu Chensha, and the Illusionary Shadow Mink and quickly returned to the City Lord Mansion.

However, this brief trip back and forth also consumed a certain amount of his mana.

So when he returned to the City Lord Mansion, Lu Changsheng directly burned Spirit Stones.

Considering the plentiful harvest from Yiming Ghost Sect before, Lu Changsheng no longer valued several hundred thousand Spirit Stones.

”Greetings, Peach God Senior.”

Lu Chensha respectfully saluted Hong Lian, adorned in an elegant red and gold skirt, her form radiant and unparalleled.

He showed great deference towards Hong Lian, knowing she had been very considerate of him in their early years.

”Chensha.”

Hong Lian nodded slightly, then looked at the Illusionary Shadow Mink beside him.

”Chirp chirp chirp...”

The Illusionary Shadow Mink, having been with the Lu Family for so long, had grown obedient.

Seeing Hong Lian looking at it, and knowing she was someone not to provoke, it immediately put on a pleasing look and cupped its paws politely.

”Chensha, you will stay in the Immortal City for cultivation in the coming days and follow the arrangements of the Peach God.”

Lu Changsheng instructed his son, then left with the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng.

As for Lu Lingjing, due to its injuries not being completely healed, Lu Changsheng did not bring it along.

With the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng and the Michen Banner for travel, there was no need for the Sea Splitting Mysterious Dragon Whale to give them a ride.

”Let’s go, Xuanjian Daoist.”

Lu Changsheng returned to Yun Meng Restaurant and called out to Xuanjian True Monarch, then the two left Great Dream Immortal City, heading toward the Starry Sky Sea.

...

After flying for a long time, Lu Changsheng could no longer tolerate Xuanjian True Monarch’s escape speed and suggested, ”Xuanjian Daoist, how about... I give you a lift?”

Actually, Xuanjian True Monarch’s speed wasn’t slow at all.

It even surpassed most Nascent Soul cultivators by a bit.

It maintained a balance between mana consumption and speed.

But Lu Changsheng, who was accustomed to traveling with the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng and having the Tianyuan Lotus as his Second Dantian, was unwilling to travel so leisurely.

Moreover, he intended to help his daughter Lu Wangshu with the last step of her Core Formation using the Yin-Yang Source once he returned from the Starry Sea.

At Xuanjian True Monarch’s pace, they might not make it in time.

”Hmm!?”

Xuanjian True Monarch paused, realizing that Lu Changsheng was dissatisfied with his speed.

Looking at the long banner in Lu Changsheng’s hand surrounded by five-colored radiance, he thought for a moment and nodded.

Although doing so would put himself in potential danger,

if this Great Dream City Lord harbored malicious intentions towards him, a close-range attack could be life-threatening.

But considering they had reached an agreement for cooperation, if Lu Changsheng had any ill intentions, it would be more troublesome to act on the Yue Country battlefield.

So he chose to trust Lu Changsheng.

”Buzz!”

Seeing Xuanjian True Monarch coming nearby, Lu Changsheng’s mana roared like a river, flowing into the Michen Banner and continually burning Spirit Stones.

In an instant, the Michen Banner radiated glorious lights, engulfing both him and Xuanjian True Monarch, stirring up ripples in the void as they soared toward the Starry Sky Sea.

Xuanjian True Monarch was filled with suspicion, wondering if Lu Changsheng wasn’t afraid of exhausting his mana traveling like this.

If his mana was depleted, there was no Fourth Rank Spirit Vein here to restore it.

Moreover, choosing to meditate and restore mana would be slower than traveling steadily.

If they were caught by a tsunami, storm, or Fourth Rank Demon King along the way, it would put them in further danger.
