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

Chapter 611: The Wealthy and Boorish Uncle! Phoenix Gu!

Red Leaf Valley Market.

In a room of a restaurant,

Qu Changge listened to his nephew’s recount of their life over the years, the family situation, and the condition of his sister, Qu Zhenzhen.

Learning that after so many years his sister’s nature was still carefree, naive, and cheerful as before, a hint of a smile emerged on his stern face, and the malevolent and evil Qi between his brows softened considerably.

Especially when he heard his nephew helplessly express that he and his siblings were being urged to marry by their mother, Qu Zhenzhen, and he had no choice but to run here to manage the business, he couldn’t help but chuckle.

“Quanzhen, Yuzhen, Caizhen, Huai Zhen….”

...
Qu Changge muttered the names of his four nephews and nieces.

He knew that among the four nephews, Lu Quanzhen and Lu Caizhen possessed Spiritual Roots, while Lu Yuzhen and Lu Huaizhen were without, merely mortals.

But the Spiritual Roots of Lu Quanzhen and another were poor, possessing only Eighth Grade Spiritual Root and Ninth Grade Spiritual Root.

“Quanzhen, what are your plans for the future, what do you desire?” Qu Changge asked gently.
“Plans? Desires?”

Lu Quanzhen paused upon hearing his uncle’s words, unsure if the other was testing him or was sincere.

After a moment of thought, he said, “I am quite satisfied with my current life, my only hope is that in the future I can break through to Foundation Establishment so that I too have the ability to protect my family, protect my mother, brothers, and sisters.”

“If I were to think further ahead, perhaps I would hope to explore the world after achieving Foundation Establishment.” Lu Quanzhen said.

Although these words were not his complete thoughts, they were truly from his heart.

“Break through Foundation Establishment, go out and see the world.” Qu Changge nodded slightly.

From the chat just now, he could see that his nephew was a very clever and opinionated person.

These words might not be completely genuine, but they did contain quite a bit of truth.

He understood this.

Having met only a short while ago, how could the other completely trust him?

Perhaps this nephew was only chatting with him because he was apprehensive of Qu Changge, unaware of his real situation.

He whispered, “With your Eighth Grade Spiritual Root, it won’t be easy to break through Foundation Establishment.”

“True, but I believe in making efforts.”

Lu Quanzhen’s expression was firm as he seriously said, “My father only had a Ninth Grade Spiritual Root, but he still became a Foundation Establishment Cultivator. With the support of our family now, as long as I work hard, there is hope to break through Foundation Establishment.”

“Lu Changsheng…”

When Qu Changge heard this, he looked at his nephew’s determined expression, slightly startled.

From information he naturally knew of his cheap brother-in-law’s situation, and therefore suspected the other had turned to the Demon Path, the Heretical Path.

After all, for a cultivator with a Lower Grade Spiritual Root to hope for Foundation Establishment was exceedingly difficult, let alone Ninth Grade Spiritual Root.

He asked, “Do you respect your father a lot?”

“Yes, my father might have some shortcomings, but he is very kind to our mother, to us siblings…” Lu Quanzhen recounted some family issues and his father, Lu Changsheng’s matters.

Like scrimping and saving, using cultivation resources for their stepmother and mother, laying foundations for himself and others.

Mostly establishing the family for their sake, even if the family was always in deficit, to ensure they had sufficient cultivation resources and welfare benefits.

As for his father’s marriage and concubine matters, as a son, he felt it inappropriate to comment further.

Listening to these words prompted Qu Changge to show a thoughtful look, somewhat eager to meet this cheap brother-in-law of his.

His instincts told him that his brother-in-law surely had a big secret!

“Quanzhen, with your Eighth Grade Spiritual Root, it will be difficult for you to break through Foundation Establishment in the future.”

“This Elixir Medicine is called Heaven-replenishing Elixir, it has the effect of refining pure cultivator’s Spiritual Roots, take this elixir and it will enhance your Spiritual Root, aiding you.”

Qu Changge’s hand revealed a black jade porcelain bottle, which he handed to Lu Quanzhen.

He knew his nephew didn’t trust him yet.

So, he planned to let the other drop their guard by offering benefits.

Moreover, the biggest barrier currently preventing his nephew from breaking through Foundation Establishment was his Spiritual Root.

Since that was the case, by enhancing his Spiritual Root, wouldn’t that solve the problem?

“Heaven-replenishing Elixir, pure Spiritual Root effect!?”

Lu Quanzhen, hearing this, looked at the porcelain bottle, his mental spirit shocked, unsure whether to believe these words.

Even though he had never heard of the Heaven-replenishing Elixir, he knew such Elixir Medicines capable of enhancing Spiritual Roots were extremely precious Heavenly and Earthly Treasures!

Once news spread, who knew how much chaos, bloodshed, and even coveting by Nascent Soul Immortals it might incite.

His uncle was actually able to produce such a rare Elixir Medicine, which made him inherently suspicious.

“But this elixir was obtained by chance, I’m not entirely sure of its efficacy or nature, dare you try it?” Qu Changge said with a smirk.

“Since uncle intends it, I am naturally willing to try!” Lu Quanzhen thought for a moment and responded respectfully.

He felt that the other had no reason to harm him.

If he wanted to kill him, he could just act directly.

Unless the other intended to control him through the elixir, thus targeting Bi Lake Mountain.

But that seemed unlikely.

Moreover, he dared to come over this time, having some preparation.

It was the ‘Substitute Talisman’ given by his father, Lu Changsheng, which could be activated to escape in any danger.

He took the porcelain bottle, opened it, and poured out an elixir about the size of a longan, radiating a shimmering luster.

The Elixir Medicine seemed to possess life, its glow flickering now and then, currents of light autonomously flowing.

“Heaven-replenishing Elixir…”

Lu Quanzhen gazed at the Elixir Medicine in his hand, his pupils constricting slightly.

Based on the appearance alone, it was evident that this Elixir Medicine was extraordinary, different from the usual kinds.

Immediately, he swallowed the Elixir Medicine.
