Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family

Chapter 44: My Daughter Seems Quite Suitable for Lu Changsheng

In a villa in Qingzhu Valley.

“What?”

“Lu Changsheng was promoted to the first-level medium-grade Talisman Master?” 

“I remember it’s only been about two years since he became a novice Talisman Master, right?”

Lu Yuanding, who was handling matters, heard Lubo’s report.

It was reported that Lu Changsheng was able to draw first-level medium-grade talisman and was promoted to a medium-grade talisman master. A look of surprise immediately appeared on his face. 

During these times, he didn’t pay much attention to Lu Changsheng’s progress in making talismans. 

All he knew was that Lu Changsheng had perfectly completed the talisman-making tasks given to him every month.

Unexpectedly, Lu Changsheng was actually able to draw a first level mid-grade talisman, thus going from being a novice Talisman master to a first level mid-grade Talisman master.

“Yes, Patriarch. It has been exactly two years since Lu Changsheng became a novice Talisman master.”
“When I heard the news, I couldn’t believe it either. I even asked Lu Changsheng to draw a Fire Cloud Talisman in front of me.”

“This is the first mid-grade Talisman drawn by Lu Changsheng – Fire Cloud Talisman.”

Lu Bo nodded, took out a talisman and said. 

He guessed that Lu Yuanding might be very surprised to hear this news and might not believe it.

So he asked Lu Changsheng to draw a Fire Cloud Talisman in front of him.

“Sure enough, it’s a mid-grade Talisman, Fire Cloud Talisman. Lu Changsheng’s talent in Talisman-making is truly…”

Lu Yuanding took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly.

He also didn’t know how to describe Lu Changsheng’s talent in Talisman making.

From a novice who had never touched Talisman, he explored it on his own and became a novice Talisman master in a year and a half.

Then, in almost two years, he went from being a novice Talisman master to a first-class mid-level Talisman master.

This was amazing.

You see, his eldest daughter, Lu Miaoge, was very talented in making talismans.

But it took her almost three years to progress from a first-class low-grade talisman maker to a middle-grade talisman maker.

In addition.

Compared to Lu Changsheng, Lu Miaoge not only had better conditions, but also had a master to teach and guide her.

In this comparison, Lu Changsheng’s talent in making talismans was truly extraordinary!

If Lu Changsheng knew how difficult it was for a low-grade first-class talisman maker to become a mid-grade talisman maker, and that it took Lu Miaoge three years, he would probably have waited another year or so. 𝐑𝓪ꞐՕΒËş

He figured that since it only took him a year and a half to progress from a beginner to a first level talisman maker, it was almost time for him to progress to a medium-grade talisman maker in two years.

“All right, go and inform the elders. We’ll have a small meeting tomorrow.”

“Let’s see what they have in mind for Lu Changsheng.” 

Lu Yuanding put down the Fire Cloud Talisman in his hand and tapped his fingers on the table and gave instructions.

Compared to a novice talisman maker, a first-class mid-level talisman maker was already worthy of the Liu family’s attention.

Especially considering Lu Changsheng’s current performance in talisman making, there was a high probability that he would become a second-level talisman maker in the future!

A second-level talisman master, even a great foundation building cultivator, has to give him some face. 

“Unfortunately, it’s a pity that Lu Changsheng is not from our Lu Family bloodline, after all, he is an outsider.”

Lu Yuanding sighed deeply.

Even though he had always told Lu Changsheng that he was family, in the end, Lu Changsheng wasn’t of the Lu Family bloodline, and he couldn’t be treated completely as one of their own.

In the Qingzhu Valley, in the Qingzhu Hall.

The simple and elegant meeting hall.

The incense burner was slowly burning the incense stick.

Lu Yuanding sat on the main seat, while several high-ranking members and elders of the Lu family sat on both sides of the long table.

“Regarding the information about Lu Changsheng’s situation, I think you all should have some understanding. I wonder what your thoughts are?” Lu Yuanding looked at the elders and said.

“This child has such a talent for making talismans, and he is expected to become a second level talisman master in the future. He should be used by our Lu Family. He will never be allowed to leave our Lu Family!”  

Said one of the gray-haired old men.

He was the Grand Elder of the Lu Family with the Peak level strength in Qi Refining Realm. He is responsible for managing the family’s finances and assisting the patriarch in managing the family.

“Patriarch, this child has only been in our Lu Family for a little over four years. Does he really belong to our Lu Family?” 

Said a thin, gray-haired elder.

He was the Third Elder of the Lu Family, responsible for matters related to Spirit Bamboo, spirit fields, spirit medicine, and so on.

“Based on Lu Changsheng’s behavior over the years, it is obvious that he lacks great ambition and is content with a modest life,” said another elder. “He may not be completely devoted to our Lu family, but he has a sense of belonging.”

“Besides, considering the previous contract, the possibility of Lu Changsheng leaving our Lu family is not very high,” Lu Yuanding added.

“I heard that this Lu Changsheng only has one hobby, which is to marry women and have children,” another elder chimed in. “Not content with marrying nine secular women from our Lu family, he even brought three women from the secular world to marry, one of whom possesses a Spirit Root.”

“It seems that Lu Changsheng knows that he has no hope of cultivating immortality, so he is pinning his hopes on the next generation and wants to have more children with Spirit Roots,” the elder continued. “As it happens, my granddaughter, Miaoyi, is twenty years old this year, she is obedient and sensible, and has an eighth-grade Spirit Root. I am willing to marry my granddaughter to Lu Changsheng.”

“In this way, Lu Changsheng will truly become a son-in-law of our Lu family,” he concluded. “Then I will have my granddaughter give birth to more Spirit Rooted children for Lu Changsheng, completely binding him to our Lu family.”

“In addition, Lu Changsheng also has the family name of Lu. The children he will have in the future will also be able to integrate well into our Lu Family and become descendants of our Lu Family!” 

At that moment, a senior elder with gray hair but a youthful appearance spoke up.

He was the Fifth Elder of the Lu Family, a winemaker in charge of the Lu Family’s liquor business.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the elders and the patriarch sitting in the main seat subtly changed.

Sitting in the main seat, Lu Yuanding couldn’t help but feel moved.

He had quite a few children and grandchildren.

But there were only three Spirit Rooted children in the family.

The eldest daughter, Lu Miaoge, was the one who gave him the most peace of mind.

Not only was she reasonable and diligent in her cultivation, but she also had a talent for making talismans.

However, his second daughter, Lu Miaohuan, was the one he couldn’t help but worry about.

Although she possessed a sixth-grade Spirit Root, she tended to play around and didn’t pay much attention to cultivation.

Moreover, after he became the patriarch of the Lu Family, he neglected to discipline his children, which caused this daughter to develop a somewhat spoiled and arrogant temperament.

As long as she was in the Lu Family, he could still keep an eye on her.

But that untested arrogance and pride would easily lead to trouble once she got married and he wasn’t around anymore.

And once trouble started, it could escalate quickly.

Now, hearing the words of the Fifth Elder, he suddenly had a thought.

Why not let his daughter, Lu Miaohuan, marry Lu Changsheng?

After a few exchanges and considering Uncle Fu’s and Lu Bo evaluations of Lu Changsheng, he also felt that Lu Changsheng was not a bad person.

Not only did he have a natural talent for making talismans, but he also seemed honest and reliable.

Although he had a fondness for women and had quite a few wives and children, at least he didn’t neglect his talisman-making responsibilities.

And based on the information, he knew that Lu Changsheng treated his wives and children very well and was always attentive to them.

Considering these factors, and also considering Lu Changsheng’s secular farmer background, which meant that there would be minimal interaction with other families, even if he settled down on Qingzhu Mountain and became half a member of the Lu family, he wasn’t afraid that his daughter would suffer.

As this thought occurred to Lu Yuanding, it became more and more feasible.

He thought that Lu Changsheng would be a good son-in-law.

“Lu Changsheng has such a talent for making talismans, it should not be wasted. We should take good care of him,” he said. 

“I am also willing to let my granddaughter, Miaoyun, marry Lu Changsheng and teach him about talismans at the same time, so that he can fully dedicate himself to our Lu family and become a second-level talisman master for our Lu family.”

At this point, a dignified woman in her thirties or forties spoke up.

She was the Fourth Elder of the Lu Family, a high-ranking first level talisman master in charge of the Lu Family’s talismans.

“The old man also has a granddaughter,” another elderly woman with gray hair spoke up.

Following Elder Wu’s lead, one by one, the elders of the clan agreed to marry their Spirit Rooted offspring to Lu Changsheng.

Although the Lu family was a single family, it had various branches that looked out for their own interests. Someone like Lu Changsheng, who was only half a member of the Lu Family, but had such extraordinary talents in talisman making, was naturally considered a desirable match by the elders of the clan.

They were more than willing to marry off Spirit Rooted descendants to Lu Changsheng. This way, it would be like binding Lu Changsheng, a future second-level Talisman master, to their own branch. 

Even if Lu Changsheng didn’t become a second-level Talisman master in the future, he would still be a top-level first-level Talisman master. 

In any case, it was a win-win situation for them.

As he watched the elders continue to talk, Lu Yuanding cleared his throat and said, “I think Miaohuan is also about the right age. She seems suitable for Lu Changsheng.”
