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

Chapter 2777: Chapter 896: Qu Changge, Wealthy and Magnanimous, Gains Another Seed of Law!

In the evening, Lu Caizhen returned to Bi Lake Mountain with her husband Hong Xuanji and several children from the Red Leaf Valley Market.

”Mom, what’s the reason you called me back?”

Although Lu Caizhen was the main person in charge of the Red Leaf Valley Market, she wasn’t very busy and would return every so often to spend time with Qu Zhenzhen.

For this reason, the Lu Family provided her with a top-level second-rank flying boat for convenient travel.

Qu Zhenzhen was preparing a spirit meal with a few juniors, and she happily said to her daughter, ”Your father and uncle have returned.”

”Uncle?” Lu Caizhen was puzzled.

Because of Lu Changsheng’s connections, she had many uncles in name.

But Lu Caizhen knew that if it were an uncle from Qingzhu Mountain or another place, her mother wouldn’t be so delighted.

”Come over and give Mom a hand, and you’ll find out soon.”

Qu Zhenzhen said to her daughter, asking her to help and to show her culinary skills to her uncle.

Even though Bi Lake Mountain had an exotic treasure, the Five Qi Cauldron, which could directly cook second-rank spirit meals,

these spirit meals mainly focused on nutrition, while the color, aroma, and taste were average at best.

So, Qu Zhenzhen usually preferred to cook herself.

Her daughter Lu Caizhen, under her influence, also became a second-rank spirit chef, learning many spirit meal recipes.

”Mom, could the uncle you’re talking about be the one I’ve never met?”

Although Lu Caizhen’s innate ability was average, making her a worry-free daughter of the Lu family, she wasn’t foolish.

She guessed that the uncle who could make her mother so happy could only be her mother’s biological brother.

But wasn’t this uncle long dead outside?

Even if he wasn’t dead, now after more than a hundred years, he should have passed away from old age, right?

”Yes, it’s your real uncle.”

Qu Zhenzhen said with joy, telling her daughter that her uncle had encountered danger and fell off a cliff, was saved by a great cultivator, taken to cultivate immortality, and having now finally succeeded, he had come to Bi Lake Mountain to find them.

Hearing such a bizarre experience, Lu Caizhen wondered if it was just like a story and if someone was deliberately pretending to be her uncle to deceive the family’s wealth.

Ever since Bi Lake Mountain became more prosperous, such things weren’t unheard of.

For instance, someone claimed to be a distant relative of a concubine of the Lu Ancestor, or carried a child asserting it was the offspring of a Lu family disciple.

Some female cultivators, when encountering dangerous situations, even impersonated a concubine of the Changsheng True Master, claiming they had an encounter with him and a brief romantic affair, tarnishing the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family’s reputation.

However, the Changsheng True Master had many wives and concubines; no one knew how many women he had encounters with outside.

So, when faced with some women of outstanding appearance, out of respect for the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family’s reputation, these claims were somewhat effective.

But considering her father had returned and her mother was also a Foundation Establishment cultivator, it would be difficult to fool her with bloodline sensing, Lu Caizhen congratulated her mother, feeling a bit curious about the uncle she had never met.

Mother and daughter chatted while preparing the spirit meal.

When almost ready, they informed Lu Changsheng and Qu Changge to come for the meal.

This was considered a private family gathering for the Qu family, so there weren’t many people.

Just Lu Changsheng, Qu Changge, Qu Zhenzhen, and Lu Caizhen’s family.

”Dad, greetings to the father-in-law.”

”Grandpa, grandpa...”

Lu Caizhen and Hong Xuanji, along with their children, paid their respects to Lu Changsheng and looked at Qu Changge by his side, dressed in dark cloud-patterned robes.

At that moment, Qu Changge’s white hair had turned black, tied up with a wooden hairpin, adding a touch of elegance to him.

But his handsome face was still somewhat icy and rigid.

”Caizhen, Xuanji, this is your uncle.” Qu Zhenzhen immediately introduced her daughter and son-in-law.

Hong Xuanji and Lu Caizhen had been married for more than ninety years. Although it appeared like marriage, it was somewhat like attaching a son-in-law, as they had been living in Bi Lake Mountain, helping the Lu family.

During this time, they showed great respect to Qu Zhenzhen, their mother-in-law, so she also treated him as half a son.

”Caizhen greets Uncle, Xuanji greets Uncle.” The couple clasped their hands in a greeting bow.

”Caizhen.”

Qu Changge looked at his niece, who resembled his sister somewhat, and felt an instant closeness.

He couldn’t sense any bloodline connection from those of the third and fourth generation of the Lu Family.

But he could feel it from Lu Caizhen in front of him.

This was the bloodline bond of the cultivation world!

Unlike mortals, it’s difficult for them to sense the ties and kinship deep in the bloodline.

But when cultivators’ cultivation levels reach a certain point, they can clearly sense the connection and resonance deep in their bloodlines.

However, seeing his niece had only reached the sixth layer of Foundation Establishment, Qu Changge couldn’t help but frown.

From when he returned to visit his sister, he had seen Lu Caizhen.

At that time, she had already grown up.

Given the age, she should be at least a hundred and twenty years old now.

Such cultivation level, even if she breaks through to late Foundation Establishment, leaves her almost without hope of reaching Core Formation.

”What’s Lu Changsheng doing?”

Qu Changge’s dissatisfaction with Lu Changsheng deepened instantly.

He believed the man had neglected his niece.

Otherwise, how could Lu Caizhen, at her age, only be at the sixth layer of Foundation Establishment?

When he saw Hong Xuanji, whose hair was gray and looked older than his niece by twenty years, he couldn’t help but frown even more.

Foundation Establishment First Layer?

Moreover, his mana was unstable.

Presumably, he relied on secret techniques and external forces to break through to Foundation Establishment and had exhausted his potential.

How did Lu Changsheng find such a husband for his niece?

Qu Changge’s dissatisfaction with Lu Changsheng was at its peak.

But now with his sister Qu Zhenzhen nearby, the whole family was happy, so he refrained from losing his temper.

Smiling, he handed over a prepared storage bag to his niece and said, ”Caizhen, this is a meeting gift from your uncle.”

”Xuanji, right, here, this is a token from your uncle.”
