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

Chapter 129: Li Feiyu Left, The Death of Lu Familyʼs Ancestor!

【Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have obtained the ‘Six-Winged Golden Silkworm’ larva!】

【The reward has been sent to the system space, and the Host can view it at any time.】

A golden light flashed, and a silkworm pattern with double wings emerged from the large turntable, accompanied by a system prompt tone.

“Six-Winged Golden Silkworm?”

Lu Changsheng looked at the reward drawn from the system, raising an eyebrow.

Who would have thought that among the pets, there were not only beasts but also insects?

“It seems that the pet lottery includes all sorts of living creatures, including birds, beasts, scales, insects, plants, and more.”

“If that’s the case, If I drew a plant based demon pet I won’t have to worry about cultivating the Heavenly Spirit Plant for the ‘Heaven and Earth Immortality Method’ in the future.”

Lu Changsheng thought to himself.

He hadn’t forgotten the ‘Heaven and Earth Immortality Method’ he had obtained from Xiaolong.
He had been thinking that once he had the power and conditions, he would let his wives and children cultivate and become immortals.

But he didn’t think about it too much.

Lu Changsheng’s mind stirred, and he looked at the Six-Winged Golden Silkworm he had just drawn.

【Rare Insect: Six-Winged Golden Silkworm】

【Rank: Top-Heavenly Tier】

【Description: One of the ancient, rare, and exotic insects, which takes 100 years to lay eggs and 100 years to hatch into a larva. The newly hatched larva has only one pair of wings, and it grows into three pairs of wings when mature. It is not afraid of divine abilities and has a brutal and violent nature, but is difficult to tame due to its low intelligence.】

“Wow, an Top-Heavenly Tier rare insect?”

“It’s even higher than the Nine Netherworld Hound’s bloodline.”

“I wonder how long it will take to cultivate the Six-Winged Golden Silkworm to its peak.”

Lu Changsheng thought to himself as he looked at the information about the Six-Winged Golden Silkworm.

He was most concerned about how long it would take to raise the Six-Winged Golden Silkworm.

After all, the most difficult part of raising pets for him was the cultivation phase.

It would take dozens or even hundreds of years to cultivate, which was really exhausting.

For example, the Nine Netherworld Hound had been in the initial stage for many years.

It was only half a year ago that Lu Changsheng had finally saved up enough money to buy some spirit beast pellets, which Lu Ping’an would feed it occasionally. ȑΆ𝐍ȏВĘȘ

Now, it was almost at the mid-stage of the first rank.

As for the system’s introduction that the Six-Winged Golden Silkworm was brutal and violent, with low intelligence and difficult to tame, Lu Changsheng didn’t take it to heart.

What did it matter to him that it was hard to tame?

“Extract!”

Lu Changsheng’s mind stirred, and he took out the Six-Winged Golden Silkworm from the system space.

Immediately, a small, inch-long, golden-colored silkworm appeared, with a pair of thin, cicada-like wings on its back.

The wings flowed with a faint golden light, and its body radiated a brutal, murderous aura.

“Six-Winged Golden Silkworm, it takes 100 years to lay eggs, 100 years to hatch, and once hatched, the larva is as strong as iron, comparable to magical weapons, and immune to Primary Level spells.”

“It takes 200 years to grow from a larva to a four-winged stage, with a third stage of power, and another 1,000 years to grow from four wings to six wings, reaching the fourth stage peak.”

Lu Changsheng looked at the Six-Winged Golden Silkworm in his hand, and he had a general understanding of its situation.

It was indeed powerful.

The newly hatched larva already had the power of a late-stage first rank.

After a few decades, it would have the power of a second-rank Foundation Establishment.

After the first transformation, it would grow a second pair of wings, reaching the third stage of power.

And after another 1,000 years, it would grow a third pair of wings, reaching the fourth stage peak, comparable to the fifth rank.

For a demonic beast, this time wasn’t long.

But for Lu Changsheng, this time was too long.

“Right now, pets are still somewhat useless for me, and can’t directly increase my power.”

“But if these pets can be cultivated and grown, they will all be unparalleled existences of the same rank.”

Lu Changsheng sighed and shook his head.

He then tried to sense the Six-Winged Golden Silkworm in front of him.

Like the Nine Netherworld Hound and Peach Blossom Gu, this Six-Winged Golden Silkworm had a connection with him.

But, as the system introduction said, this Six-Winged Golden Silkworm was brutal and violent, with low intelligence, and couldn’t communicate properly.

It could only receive simple commands.

Such as killing.

“If it weren’t for the system having already tamed it for me, this Six-Winged Golden Silkworm would probably kill anyone it sees.”

“I’ll just raise it for now, and if I can find a way to drive and tame it, the growth of this Six-Winged Golden Silkworm will likely accelerate greatly.”

Lu Changsheng thought to himself, and didn’t continue to look at it.

He put the Six-Winged Golden Silkworm into the Love-locking Gu’s spirit beast bag.

The Love-locking Gu, which seemed to be on the verge of death, suddenly stirred, as if it was afraid of the Six-Winged Golden Silkworm.

Lu Changsheng saw this scene, and couldn’t help but think of Meng Xiaochan.

She was clearly an expert in taming demonic beasts.

“I don’t know how to cultivate the Six-Winged Golden Silkworm.”

“If I had the corresponding cultivation method, my growth rate would increase significantly.”

However, Lu Changsheng didn’t think much about it.

He and the other party were connected only because of the Love-locking Gu.

Now, he didn’t know where the other party had gone.

Moreover, cultivating a rare and exotic insect like the Six-Winged Golden Silkworm was likely to be very difficult.

Jin State, in the vast wilderness of the southern mountains…

A purple-clad young girl was driving a group of insects, killing several demonic beasts.

After the insects and a blood-red spider had devoured the demonic beasts’ corpses, the girl continued on her journey.

When she emerged from the wilderness, she saw a majestic, mysterious mountain peak shrouded in purple-black clouds, and her face lit up with excitement.

“Grandma told me that our Ancestor was from one of the three great demonic gates of the Jin Kingdom, the Heavenly Web Weaver of the Five Poisons Sect.”

“I possess the Thousand Poison Body, and I can join the Five Poisons Sect with Grandma’s token.”

“It’s a pity I lost the Love-locking Gu; otherwise, I might have become the Holy Maiden of the Five Poisons Sect.”

Meng Xiaochan gazed at the Spirit Vain Mountain before her, feeling a pang of regret.

When she thought of the Love-locking Gu, her heart skipped a beat.

She remembered the young man with the handsome face and upright posture.

“It’s said that the Five Poisons Sect’s unique Phoenix Gu can cultivate the Great Phoenix Nirvana Technique, allowing one to be reborn from the ashes, washing away all impurities.”

“I wonder if it can remove the effects of the Love-locking Gu.”

Meng Xiaochan suddenly thought to herself.

But as soon as she had this thought, her heart began to flutter.

She shook her head, dispelling the idea.

“Who goes there?”

Two black-clad disciples stood guard at the mountain gate, looking at Meng Xiaochan and asking.

The Five Poisons Mountain was the site of the Five Poisons Sect, and not just anyone could approach it freely.

“I am Meng Xiaochan, a descendant of the Heavenly Web Weaver of the Five Poisons Sect.”

Meng Xiaochan took out a token from her sleeve and handed it to one of the disciples.

“A descendant of the Heavenly Web Weaver!?”

The two disciples examined the token, exchanging a glance.

One of them immediately said, “Please wait, I’ll go report this.”

About the time it took to burn an incense stick…

A purple light flashed from the Five Poisons Mountain, and in the blink of an eye, a figure appeared before Meng Xiaochan.

“Greetings, Heavenly Web Weaver!”

The remaining purple-clad disciple saw the arriving figure and hastily bowed in respect.

“You are the descendant of the Master.”

The person who arrived was a 28- or 29-year-old purple-clad woman.

Her face was breathtakingly beautiful, with skin as white as snow.

Her slender, jade-like legs were perfectly proportioned.

Her two crystal-like jade feet were as white as jade, without a single blemish, like a work of art that made one want to hold them gently.

Her luxurious purple silk clothes accentuated her slender yet curvaceous figure, exuding an irresistible charm.

Her narrow, phoenix-like eyes were deep and mysterious, radiating an otherworldly allure as she gazed at Meng Xiaochan.

A teardrop mole under her phoenix-like eyes added to her enchanting beauty, making her even more captivating.

“Greetings, senior,” Meng Xiaochan bowed respectfully.

She took out a few insect eggs from her storage bag and released a blood-red spider.

“The Blood Jade Spider, it seems you are truly the descendant of the Master.”

The purple-clad woman nodded slightly, her expression warm and gentle. “You’ve come to the Five Poisons Mountain, so you have to join our Five Poisons Sect.”

“Yes, senior, I want to join the Five Poisons Sect,”

Meng Xiaochan replied respectfully.

“Since you are the descendant of the Heavenly Web Weaver, are you willing to become my disciple?”

The purple-clad woman looked at Meng Xiaochan, smiling.

“I am willing!”

Meng Xiaochan replied, bowing in respect.

“Good, from today on, you will be my disciple, Nangong Miluo.”

Nangong Miluo chuckled and led Meng Xiaochan into the Five Poisons Mountain.

Ten days after Lu Miaohuan gave birth…

Lu Miaoge’s child was also born.

It was a girl.

This child also had a Spirit Root.

But it was only a seventh-grade Spirit Root.

Lu Changsheng’s expectations had been raised because of Lu Miaohuan’s child.

Seeing that the child only had a seventh-grade Spirit Root, he felt a slight disappointment.

However, he quickly adjusted his mindset.

After all, having a Spirit Root was already a blessing.

It was impossible for everyone to be born with exceptional talents.

“This is also the result of superior upbringing and education, I suppose,” Lu Changsheng thought to himself.

This time, Lu Miaoge and Lu Miaohuan’s child was born with a bit of luck involved.

However, this also proves that the higher the parents’ cultivation, the higher the quality of the Spirit Root, and the higher the probability of the child having a Spirit Root.

The quality of the Spirit Root is also more likely to be better.

After Lu Miaoge gave birth to her child, Lu Changsheng stayed at Qingzhu Mountain for three days before returning to Julong Market.

Because both women had given birth, he had already taken a long leave of absence, so he didn’t want to delay any further.

After returning to Julong Market, Lu Changsheng found some books about insects and purchased various spiritual materials to try to raise the Six-Winged Golden Silkworm, experimenting with different feeding methods.

Blood!

The Six-Winged Golden Silkworm had no qualms about blood.

This made Lu Changsheng think to himself that the Six-Winged Golden Silkworm was indeed extremely vicious.

Two months later…

Lu Changsheng returned to the mortal world to visit his wives and children.

On this day, Li Feiyu also came to bid farewell to Lu Changsheng.

He said he was preparing to leave Ruyi Region City to venture into the Immortal World.

“Feiyu, where are you planning to go to cultivate?” Lu Changsheng asked aloud.

He had previously mentioned the Hongye Valley market.

He had also said that Hongye Valley market would be completed and opened in about half a year.

But looking at Li Feiyu’s expression, it was clear that he didn’t plan to go to Hongye Valley market.

Lu Changsheng roughly understood Li Feiyu’s thoughts.

He knew that his friend had his own pride and stubbornness, and didn’t want to rely on him for an easy life.

He knew that going to Hongye market would be difficult and wouldn’t lead to much achievement.

“For now, I haven’t decided, but I plan to take a look at Qingluan Immortal City,”

Li Feiyu said with a carefree expression.

“Qingluan Immortal City.”

Lu Changsheng’s heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

He naturally knew about Qingluan Immortal City.

Jiang Country had three great immortal cities.

Jiuxiao Immortal City, Dream Immortal City, and Qingluan Immortal City.

Jiuxiao Immortal City is located in the central part of Jiang Country. It is the first immortal city in Jiang Country. It is a prosperous immortal market.

Dream Immortal City was located in the northern border of Jiang Country, backed by the vast and mysterious Great Dream Marsh.

This lake was boundless and endless, shrouded in mist for centuries, able to block the divine sense of cultivators.

It was said that even Core Formation true persons who entered it would never return.

So no one knew what lay beyond Great Dream Marsh.

There were rumors that it was a forbidden area, a place of absolute danger.

There were also rumors that it was a more vast and prosperous cultivation realm.

Qingluan Immortal City was located in the southern border of Jiang Country, near the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range, and bordered the Yue Country.

Not only could one go to the mountain range to temper themselves and hunt demonic beasts for money, but they could also go to the Yue Country to exchange with Yue Country cultivators.

Many Yue Country cultivators would gather at Qingluan Immortal City, making it a sacred place for Rouge Cultivators.

Many Rouge Cultivators who wanted to make a name for themselves would go to Qingluan Immortal City to take a chance.

But similarly, this place was extremely dangerous.

The danger level was estimated to be tens of times that of Julong Market.

Every year, countless cultivators would lose their lives in the wilderness.

“I want to see the cultivation realm, it’s so big.”

“I’ve heard that Qingluan Immortal City is a sacred place for Rouge Cultivators, and as a Rouge Cultivator, I naturally have to go take a look.”

“I’m not saying I’ll mix in or anything, but I’ll just take a look at this cultivation realm.”

Li Feiyu laughed.

He had investigated Qingluan Immortal City and knew its dangers.

But danger and opportunity coexisted.

For an ordinary Rouge Cultivator, if they wanted to make a name for themselves, this was the best place to do so.

Otherwise, with his seventh-grade Spirit Root, he would struggle to achieve anything in the mortal world or small markets.

“There’s still a year and a half left on our ten-year agreement, will you come then?” Lu Changsheng asked.

Previously, Hong Yi had written a letter asking about the ten-year agreement, and Xiao Xiyue, Zhao Qingqing, and Han Lin had all agreed to meet up then.

“I should be able to make it. I’m not planning to go directly to Qingluan Immortal City, but rather to travel around and take a look first.”

“I’ll wait until the agreement is fulfilled before truly heading to Qingluan Immortal City.”

Li Feiyu didn’t hide his thoughts.

He knew that Qingluan Immortal City was extremely dangerous.

And it wasn’t possible to just rush in blindly.

Over the years, he had gained some understanding of the cultivation realm, but he hadn’t truly entered it.

Most of the time, he was at Qingzhu Mountain, and his understanding of the cultivation realm was still not very direct.

He planned to use this year and a half to adapt to the cruelty of the cultivation realm.

“Changseng, if I don’t come back, please help take care of my family.”

Li Feiyu continued.

He had said this before, but now, on the eve of his departure, he said it again.

“I promise to take care of it, but I believe that won’t happen.”

Lu Changsheng nodded slightly, not in the mood for joking.

He took out a stack of Talismans, a medium-grade puppet, 300 spirit stones, and a storage bag.

“Feiyu, be careful on your journey. Take these things to protect yourself.”

“When you return, we’ll drink and celebrate together.”

Lu Changsheng said so.

Li Feiyu was his first friend in this world.

He had even saved his life before.

Now that he was about to embark on a perilous journey, Lu Changsheng naturally hoped that his good brother would have a smooth journey.

“What?! This is too precious, I can’t accept it.”

Li Feiyu shook his head, refusing the offer. The stack of Talismans, the puppet, and the numerous spirit stones were too valuable.

He had struggled to earn five or six spirit stones a month when he was at Qingzhu Mountain.

Now, in the secular world, he earned about ten spirit stones a month by teaching Lu Changsheng’s children and working for Hong Yi.

Lu Changsheng’s generosity was like a fortune to him.

“If you still treat me like a brother, then take it.”

“Now, I don’t lack these things. You’re going out to cultivate, and you’ll need some magical weapons. Take these spirit stones to buy a few magical weapons to protect yourself.”

Lu Changsheng said seriously.

Li Feiyu currently had a cultivation level of only fourth stage.

Although he had the strength of a martial arts grandmaster, he was still vulnerable when facing mid-stage cultivators who wielded magical weapons.

Having Talismans and magical weapons on him would make him much safer.

The reason Lu Changsheng didn’t give him magical weapons was that, apart from the Qingyan Sword, all the magical weapons on him were high-grade or top-grade, which Li Feiyu couldn’t use.

“Alright, I’ll consider it a debt I owe you.”

Li Feiyu looked at Lu Changsheng’s expression, took a deep breath, and nodded solemnly.

Then, he said with a carefree tone, “You don’t have to worry, I, Li Feiyu, started cultivating at twelve and have been through thick and thin. I won’t fall so easily.”

“I’ll make sure to stay alive to repay this debt.”

Li Feiyu said so.

After that, the two of them chatted for a long time.

Their ten-plus years of cultivating had many memorable moments worth reminiscing about.

Especially since this might be their last conversation.

The next day, Li Feiyu called Hong Yi over, and the three of them had a meal together before saying their goodbyes.

As they parted ways, Hong Yi also gave Li Feiyu a low-grade flying sword, telling him to be careful.

“Ah.”

Lu Changsheng watched Li Feiyu’s departing figure, letting out a deep sigh.

He felt a heavy sense of separation and longing.

“With the Talismans and puppet by his side, and relying on Feiyu’s abilities, he should be able to hold his own against late-stage Qi Refining cultivators and escape.”

“And who knows, in the world of cultivation, anything can happen. Maybe Feiyu will stumble upon a lucky opportunity.”

Lu Changsheng consoled himself, trying not to be too sentimental.

He then discussed the Hongye Market project with Hong Yi.

It would take about half a year to complete and open.

The matter of the shop’s name had already been settled with the Lu Family.

However, the shop was just an ordinary one, located in a mediocre spot.

The good locations were mostly reserved by the four major families or given to other powerful forces.

According to Lu Changsheng, the four major families had invested a lot of effort and resources to establish the Hongye Market.

Not only did they spend a lot on the Blue Cloud Sect, but they also gave away some shops to other forces.

Hong Yi didn’t mind, though.

Because the good shops were too expensive, and even the Marquis Ru Yi’s estate couldn’t afford them.

If it weren’t for Lu Changsheng’s connections, they wouldn’t have been able to get this ordinary shop.

Before long, two months had passed.

One day, the Second Elder found Lu Changsheng and informed him that he needed to return to the Lu Family immediately.

The Lu Family’s Ancestor had passed away!

“The Ancestor has passed away.”

Lu Changsheng had previously sensed the Ancestor’s declining vitality and knew that his time was limited.

But he didn’t expect it to happen so soon, so suddenly.

He thought back to a year ago, when the Ancestor had presided over his wedding ceremony, and felt a pang of sadness.

“The Ancestor had always wanted to see the completion of the Hongye Valley Market, but unfortunately, he didn’t make it.”

The Second Elder’s expression was sorrowful.

The high-ranking members of the Lu Family, including the Second Elder, were more aware of the Ancestor’s physical condition than Lu Changsheng.

After the Hongye Valley war, the Ancestor had known that his time was running out and had begun to settle his affairs.

His only regret was not being able to see the completion of the Hongye Valley Market.

But in the end, the Lu Family’s ancestor didn’t get to see that day.

Immediately, Lu Changsheng followed the Second Elder and several Lu Family juniors back to Qingzhu Mountain.

The Lu Family juniors returned to Qingzhu Mountain one by one.

The entire Qingzhu Mountain was filled with sorrow and grief.

A cultivation family relies on blood ties and kinship.

All the family juniors, from a young age, receive family training, learn cultivation arts, get married, have children, and spread their roots, all on this land.

And the Lu Family’s ancestor was the sky that all the Lu Family juniors looked up to.

Now that the ancestor had passed away, everyone was heartbroken.

Several days later, at the Lu Family ancestral hall.

“Alas, our ancestor lived a life of diligence and dedication, his heart tied to the family, and now his spirit has returned to heaven and earth. We, the Lu Family juniors, are all filled with sorrow and grief.”

Lu Yuanding spoke with a sorrowful expression, eulogizing the Lu Family ancestor’s contributions and achievements.

After finishing the eulogy, Lu Yuanzhong stepped forward.

He invited the Lu Family ancestor’s spirit tablet into the ancestral hall, lit three incense sticks, and bowed solemnly.

He called out loudly, “Lu Yuanzhong of the Lu Family, respectfully send the soul of Ancestor back to heaven and earth!”

The Lu Family juniors all called out in unison, “Lu Family juniors, respectfully send the soul of the ancestor back to heaven and earth!”

“Lu Family juniors, respectfully send the soul of the ancestor back to heaven and earth!”

“Lu Family juniors, respectfully send the soul of the ancestor back to heaven and earth!”

All the Lu Family juniors bowed in unison, paying their respects.

“Is this the family’s bloodline inheritance?”

“Compared to those Rouge Cultivators who are like floating duckweed, the Lu Family ancestor was able to sit in the family, die in the family, and be buried in the family’s spiritual land, with his spirit tablet placed in the ancestral hall, and his achievements recorded in the family’s genealogy. His life can be considered complete…”

“After all, not all cultivators can live a long life like Immortals. Through this method, they can let their bloodline and spirit continue to pass down.”

Lu Changsheng also bowed and called out, his emotions infected by the atmosphere.

He gradually came to understand this world, why family ties were so deep.

On one hand, it was because of blood ties and kinship.

On the other hand, it was because from the moment of birth, people were bound together with their family, tied together for life.

The entire family was working towards a single goal, striving with conviction.
