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

Chapter 2655: Chapter 862: Secrets and Rich Rewards! (Double Chapter)

Minghai True Monarch heard this and said with some surprise, ”Ancestor, has something happened?”

Before, the ancestor instructed me to explore the situation in the Southern Wilderness and capture the offspring of Yangming True Monarch, but now, in the blink of an eye, I’m told to return quickly.

”Nothing has happened. Cancel the plan against Yangming True Monarch. Come back immediately.”

Sea Suppressing Ancestor spoke in a deep voice, his tone carrying a hint of authority.

”Yes, Ancestor.”

Although Minghai True Monarch was puzzled, he remained very respectful and trusting towards the Sect’s ancestor, Sea Suppressing Ancestor. Without further questioning, he replied respectfully.

After disconnecting from the communication, Minghai True Monarch pondered whether the sect had encountered some problematic situation.

If the sect was indeed facing trouble, rushing back might be of no use.

However, out of respect for Sea Suppressing Ancestor, Minghai True Monarch decided to heed his instructions, contacting the Shadow Tower, Seven Killings Sect, and other forces to indicate that the previous bounty was canceled, before returning to the Starry Sky Sea.

He planned to investigate once back at the Starry Sky Sea to understand if there was some issue within his sect.

Otherwise, the ancestor’s attitude was truly unusual.

...

Lu Changsheng saw Minghai True Monarch had not yet acted against his son, so he didn’t pursue the matter against Sea Suppressing Ancestor.

After all, if not for the Demon Control Talisman, there would be an irreconcilable feud between him and the other party.

Now, conquering the other party and going over past grievances felt meaningless.

Mainly because the other party hadn’t yet acted.

He attempted to calculate the situation concerning his son, Lu Lingxiao.

But the distance between the Starry Sky Sea and Yue Country was vast, and affected by the Liangyue War, the heavenly secrets in both Liang Country and Yue Country were in chaos, making calculations difficult.

”This is the Divination Art...”

The Turtle Immortal Ancestor and Sea Suppressing Ancestor were surprised seeing Lu Changsheng perform calculations, with a slight power of heavenly mechanism flowing around him.

They hadn’t expected Lu Changsheng to be knowledgeable in the Divination Art.

One must know, diviners have the means to avoid misfortune and pursue auspiciousness.

It is extremely difficult to scheme against and assassinate a diviner, several times harder than against an ordinary cultivator!

Thinking of this, Turtle Immortal Ancestor recalled the ominous and auspicious senses from his talent.

Whether crossing from the Forbidden Sea, waiting for the right moment, or before taking action, his bloodline talent always indicated auspicious signs.

Yet, how could an auspicious sign have led him to such a predicament?

”This...”

When Turtle Immortal Ancestor once again activated his bloodline talent’s ominous and auspicious sensing, he was utterly stunned.

Surrendering to the person in front of him, for him, was a sign of auspiciousness and opportunity.

Th-this...

Turtle Immortal Ancestor was bewildered.

What kind of origin does this person have, that being enslaved and surrendering to him is an auspicious sign?

Isn’t this too absurd?

”What is it?”

Lu Changsheng, seeing Turtle Immortal Ancestor’s expression, inquired.

”Reporting to my lord, this old servant’s bloodline talent, besides nurturing clones, can also predict auspiciousness and ominousness...”

”Years ago, this old servant chose to leave the Forbidden Sea sensing the presence of an opportunity. Now, surrendering to my lord, I realize the opportunity was to serve my lord, hence my overwhelming joy.”

Turtle Immortal Ancestor replied with a face of delight and flattery.

Previously, his respect towards Lu Changsheng was somewhat influenced by the Enslaved Demon Talisman.

But now, upon realizing that serving the other party was not a calamity, but an opportunity, he felt it was no big deal.

After all, his father, the Pure Blood True Spirit, Xuanming Mountain Sea Turtle, also served Sea Control Mountain as the Sect Guardian Beast.

Why couldn’t he serve the Yangming True Monarch before him? Perhaps it could lead to a broader future.

One must understand, sometimes choices are more important than effort.

”???”

Lu Changsheng was taken aback by Turtle Immortal Ancestor’s ingratiating words.

Come on, you’re still a top-level Demon King, why refer to yourself as an old servant?

”Gui Dang, you don’t need to debase yourself. As long as you serve me well, benefits will not be lacking in your future.”

Lu Changsheng never valued empty fame.

Turtle Immortal Ancestor was already confined and enslaved by the Enslaved Demon Talisman, with no chance of breaking free. He didn’t mind offering some verbal respect and benefits.

”Thank you, my lord,” Turtle Immortal Ancestor replied respectfully, speculating about Lu Changsheng’s origins.

”By the way, how did you persuade Star King to come? With his escape, will there be any subsequent trouble?”

Lu Changsheng looked at Sea Suppressing Ancestor and asked about the situation concerning Star Moon Palace.

As he knew, Star Moon Palace was a neutral force that generally didn’t participate in Starry Sky Sea conflicts.

Why then, did Star King come to ambush him?

Moreover, Star Moon Palace is renowned for the Way of Divination, and Star King, being a top-level diviner, should have predicted the dangers of this battle.

”Previously, I thought you were the ’East Emperor’s Successor,’ so I went to test Star King Moon Venerate...”

Sea Suppressing Ancestor truthfully revealed how he invited Star King.

”Star King’s personality is arrogant; upon seeing your methods, he likely won’t sit idly by. So, you should deal with him as soon as possible.”

For the Lu Changsheng in front of him, Sea Suppressing Ancestor couldn’t harbor resentment.

All his hatred was directed towards Star King, wishing nothing more than to have him sliced into a thousand pieces.

Thus, he hoped Lu Changsheng would go to Star Moon Palace now to confront Star King and eliminate him.

”East Emperor’s Successor? Sun, Moon, and Star Palace?”

Hearing Sea Suppressing Ancestor’s words, Lu Changsheng raised an eyebrow, unaware of the situations regarding the East Emperor’s Successor, Star King Hall, and the Sun, Moon, and Star Palace.

”This person is indeed not the East Emperor’s Successor, nor is he from the Eastern Sea Cultivation Realm.”

Both Sea Suppressing Ancestor and Turtle Immortal Ancestor finally realized, confirming that Lu Changsheng was neither the East Emperor’s Successor nor related to the Eastern Sea Cultivation Realm.

Otherwise, with such power, he would surely know some of the secrets of the Eastern Sea Cultivation Realm.

”My lord, Star Moon Palace was established by the Star Moon Two Veins that fled to the Starry Sky Sea after the Sun, Moon, and Star Palace’s destruction in the Eastern Sea Cultivation Realm in the past...”

Turtle Immortal Ancestor immediately spoke up to explain the origins to Lu Changsheng.
