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

Chapter 540: Hong Lianʼs Past, The Effect of Ancient Runes!

“Hong Lian only wishes for the young master to give Ruyin a chance,”

Hong Lian said with a slight sigh.

She knew that Lu Changsheng couldn’t possibly let Xu Ruyin go at this moment.

In their recent conversation, after gaining a detailed understanding of Lu Changsheng’s various actions and deeds, she also made some judgments in her heart.

She believed that Lu Changsheng, this person, shouldn’t be some reincarnated old monster from the Demon Path or Heretical Path, and that his character was relatively decent.

Therefore, she had also done some ideological work with Xu Ruyin, preparing her mentally.

After all, although now they were trapped in a difficult situation, life was just so—seizing the opportunity could turn a predicament into an opportunity!

And Xu Ruyin’s initiative in calling out to Lu Changsheng clearly showed she had made a decision in her heart.

“Hehe.”

Lu Changsheng laughed upon hearing this.
Then, with a smile that was not quite a smile, he turned to Xu Ruyin and said, “Right now in my Cave Heaven, I just happen to need a servant girl. In consideration of Hong Lian, as long as she is obedient and performs well, I’ll honor all my previous words and will not treat her badly.”

“Thank you, young master,”

Hong Lian said, giving a deep bow, and did not continue to speak.

“Don’t you have any other conditions you wish to ask for?”

Seeing this, Lu Changsheng’s brow arched, thinking that the Hong Lian before him was far too agreeable.

Or rather, her attitude was unbelievably accommodating, and the process of subduing her was going too smoothly.

Logically speaking, as a Mighty Soul and a Nascent Soul True Lord, shouldn’t she be full of arrogance?

But the Hong Lian before him showed not the slightest arrogance and even seemed somewhat humble, which made him somewhat uncomfortable.

“Hong Lian has not yet made any contributions to the young master, I dare not ask for too much.”

“Moreover, I believe that in the future, the young master will not treat me unfairly, just as the young master promised before—to restore my body and return to the peak,” ℞𝖆Ɲȏ𝐁ĚṨ

Hong Lian said in an elegant and gentle voice.

She was dressed in a gorgeous palace gown, wearing a pearl crown, her face refined and perfect, giving off a sense of sacred nobility.

Yet, before Lu Changsheng, she was like a servant girl, offering a great sense of accomplishment.

“Alright, Hong Lian, rest assured, once the time is right, I will restore your body,”

Lu Changsheng said with a nod and a smile.

In his heart, he thought, truly worthy of being a Mighty Soul.

This attitude of maintaining a proper balance regardless of the situation made him extremely comfortable and his favorable impression soared.

“By the way, Hong Lian, at your peak, what was your cultivation level, where did you come from, and how did you end up in such a state?”

Lu Changsheng asked.

His purpose in subduing Hong Lian was mainly with the thought of making her his child’s mother.

But since she was currently in a state of soul without a physical body, she still needed to serve other purposes.

Leaving everything else aside, just having Hong Lian with her vision and strength to instruct his children would be very good.

At present, the cultivation of his children was primarily overseen by Lu Miaoyun and Ling Zixiao.

Although the two of them were capable, honestly speaking, they were not that great.

“Replying to the young master, at my peak I was at the Seventh Level of Nascent Soul, from the Northern Plains Cultivation Realm, the Vermilion Bird Palace,”

Hong Lian said softly, “As for how I ended up in such a plight…”

“Originally, my Sect’s disciples discovered a mysterious cave dwelling, suspected to be the Sect ruins of the Feathering Ice Palace from the ancient times.”

“I led the Sect’s disciples to fully explore and attempt to solve the ruins. The Ice Divine Palace attacked us during this, and in this great battle, we accidentally broke open the ruins’ restrictions.”

“As soon as the ruins were broken open, there were countless treasures bursting forth, which made both sides go completely insane, fighting one another.”

“Reflecting on it now, at that time, there was a mysterious force affecting our Mental Spirit and consciousness.”

“In that battle, I was gravely injured, and for some reason, I didn’t think of retreating. Instead of escaping into the Great Void with my Nascent Soul, I chose to self-destruct my Nascent Soul, to die alongside the enemy.”

“But at the moment of my Nascent Soul’s self-destruction, a mysterious power captured my soul. When I awoke, I was inside this Ancient Beast Taming Charm, awakened by the young lady Xu,”

Hong Lian said without hiding anything, slowly explaining how she had fallen to such a state.

She still couldn’t figure out what had happened to her at the time.

Not just her—all the people present at the scene were severely affected, leading to such an intense and devastating battle.

Otherwise, not just Nascent Soul True Lords,

but even Nascent Soul Immortals, in a battle of equals, wouldn’t fight to the death like that.

After all, everyone cultivates for Changsheng.

Once you become a Nascent Soul Immortal, you have a lifespan of five hundred years, why would you fight others to the death?

So, she also wanted to see if Lu Changsheng, this Mighty senior, might know what was going on with her situation.

“Nascent Soul Seventh Level! Northern Plains Cultivation Realm? Vermilion Bird Palace, Feathering Ice Palace, Ice Divine Palace? Self-destruction of Nascent Soul? Woke up inside an ancient charm!”

Upon hearing Hong Lian’s words, Lu Changsheng’s expression was filled with surprise and disbelief.

He had not heard of the Northern Plains Cultivation Realm, nor of the three Sects.

However, based on their names, he roughly guessed that this Northern Plains Cultivation Realm must be similar to the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm.

As for Hong Lian’s cultivation level, Nascent Soul Seventh Level, it also surprised him a little.

Keep in mind that the number one Cultivator of Jiang Country, Li Duanxuan, was probably only at the Early Stage or Middle Stage of Nascent Soul!

Yet the Hong Lian before him was a late-stage Nascent Soul Cultivator!

This was quite astonishing.

But Hong Lian’s experience also made him feel deeply moved.

A late-stage Nascent Soul Cultivator, having gone through a battle over a secret realm’s ruins to the extent of self-destructing her Nascent Soul.

This was simply outrageous…

“So that’s why, Hong Lian senior, you have fallen into such a situation,”

It was only then that Xu Ruyin beside him came to know of these matters.

Previously, Hong Lian had not disclosed to her why she had fallen to such a state.

“Hong Lian, is this Northern Plains Cultivation Realm similar to the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm?”
