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

Chapter 2856: As Long As You Surpass Me, You Can Pass the Demonic Tribulation!

Previously, Shen Yiren hoped her son would recognize his bond with Lu Changsheng.

Now, she feels her son is perfectly fine as he is.

Shen Yuanming was immersed in cultivation, unaware of his mother’s expression, only responding with a reassuring word to her.

Soon, Shen Yiren transformed into a verdant escape light and returned to her palace.

Upon returning, she saw Xuanmu Taoist waiting in the great hall.

”Greetings, Lu True Monarch.”

Shen Yiren gazed at Xuanmu Taoist’s handsome and gentle face, slightly dazed, as she bowed and addressed him.

Lu Changsheng discerned from her expression and gaze that Shen Jianjia had revealed his true situation to Shen Yiren.

Though he intended to confess to her himself, Shen Jianjia telling her held a different significance than if he did.

”That woman!”

Lu Ancestor inwardly remarked on how the Goddess Palace Master was particularly wary and cautious of him.

She seemed to treat him as if he were a mischievous child.

But on second thought, Shen Jianjia, as an elder sister, held great care for Shen Yiren, who was hundreds of years old, like a mother to her.

”Yiren, I’ve come to discuss some matters with you, it seems the Great Palace Master has already informed you about me.”

Lu Changsheng spoke with a gentle smile, his demeanor warm and scholarly.

”Yes, my sister has shared some details about Lu True Monarch with me.”

Shen Yiren, clad in a light green dress, gracefully brewed and poured tea for Lu Changsheng.

As she looked at Lu Changsheng’s face, she lightly bit her red lip and said, ”Lu True Monarch should return to his true appearance...”

Previously, she found Lu Changsheng’s appearance unfamiliar and couldn’t recognize him as the former Xuanmu Taoist.

Now that she knew Xuanmu Taoist was merely a disguise, she felt much calmer and accepted it openly.

”Alright.”

Lu Changsheng replied with a smile, also not wishing to continue using the guise of Xuanmu Taoist with Shen Yiren.

As he spoke, his graceful and handsome face blurred, transforming into a youthful man of unparalleled beauty.

Even though Shen Yiren had seen Lu Changsheng once before,

Upon seeing his appearance again, she was still slightly stunned.

Too handsome, too extraordinary.

Like a banished immortal stepping out of a painting, flawless and without a single blemish.

Especially his eyes and demeanor.

His deep and bright eyes were like a vast starry sky.

His aura transcendent, as if an immortal in the mortal world, seemingly ready to ascend, carrying an elegant celestial charm.

Shen Yiren had been feeling heavy-hearted and chaotic,

But upon seeing Lu Changsheng before her, for some reason, she felt a bit more tranquil.

Lu Changsheng did not speak.

His deep and affectionate gaze met Shen Yiren’s eyes.

Shen Yiren’s heart stirred, her mind inexplicably flustered, and she hurriedly returned to her seat, pouring herself tea to hide her inner turmoil.

”???”

Lu Changsheng looked at the uneasy beauty, wondering if he was that intimidating?

He knew he typically restrained his irresistible charm as much as possible.

Now, showing a bit of it, Shen Yiren reacted this way.

”What did the Great Palace Master tell you, Yiren?”

Lu Changsheng’s smile was warm, his eyes kind and pure, without a hint of desire or possessiveness, as if talking to an old confidante.

”Just some details about True Monarch...” Shen Yiren replied softly, her eyes lowered, somewhat afraid to meet his gaze.

”I apologize to Yiren for previously keeping matters from you.”

Lu Changsheng cupped his hands, then gently explained his situation and why he came to the Goddess Palace.

Shen Yiren listened quietly.

For some reason, in the presence of Lu Changsheng, she felt inexplicably calm, a sense of closeness, peace, and trust.

”Though the events of that day were a twist of fate, sparked by the Second Palace Master, mere fleeting romance.”

”But a day as a couple leads to a hundred days of grace, and in prior interactions, I found that I have already developed feelings for you, Yiren, so I came hoping you would give me a chance.”

As he spoke, Lu Changsheng rose and approached Shen Yiren, taking her delicate hand.

Although Shen Yiren did not reject Lu Changsheng, she was still caught off guard, instinctively pulling back, ”Lu True Monarch, please mind yourself!”

”If Yiren is unwilling, I won’t force you.”

Lu Changsheng was silent for a moment, looking peacefully at the embarrassed lady.

Upon hearing this, Shen Yiren, who was lightly struggling, froze.

Lu Changsheng continued, ”The only thing I can’t let go of is your Nascent Soul matter and our child.”

”If Yiren is unwilling, once you’ve broken through to the Nascent Soul, I will leave.”

Lu Changsheng spoke with a light smile, showing himself to be very candid.

After all, given his current character as someone with many wives and concubines, acting too passionately wouldn’t be appropriate.

Better to proceed gradually, taking it step by step.

It’s not like he would leave and never meet again.

”Lu True Monarch’s willingness to help me with my Nascent Soul matter, I am deeply honored, but I feel unworthy.”

Shen Yiren spoke softly, her exquisite pale face slightly flushed, trying to pull her hand from Lu Changsheng’s grasp, yet unable to do so.

”Why speak of feeling unworthy, Yiren? With a breakthrough to the Nascent Soul, you’ll have better conditions to care for Yuan Ming.”

Lu Changsheng smiled slightly, ”If you, Yiren, were to accept me in the future, there wouldn’t be any sense of unworthiness.”

”True Monarch, do not jest.” Shen Yiren turned her head, her jade-like face blushing, looking splendid beyond words.

Lu Changsheng gently pulled her into his embrace, speaking seriously, ”Yiren’s greatest heart demon is me; only if you can overcome me, you can easily pass the demonic tribulation.”

”True Monarch, please behave!” Shen Yiren was both bashful and annoyed, feeling this Lu True Monarch was somewhat roguish, lacking the demeanor of a great cultivator.

Lu Changsheng met her embarrassed and annoyed gaze with a righteous expression, ”If the Third Palace Master cannot face even this, how can he break through the heart barrier and pass the demonic tribulation!”
