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

Chapter 1059: 233: Nangong Mili’s Shock, Visitors from Red Sun Peak! (2)

But because of this, she became increasingly determined to uncover the mystery that surrounded Lu Changsheng.

”When the time comes to go to Bi Lake Mountain, I must be extra cautious...”

Nangong Mili murmured inwardly, her vigilance toward Lu Changsheng rising another notch.

After all, the man was not only audacious enough to nurture Golden Core Charm for others, but could also produce rare treasures like the Misty Sky Bead.

Now, various signs were pointing to the fact that he was far from ordinary, forcing her to keep her guard up.

Otherwise, if she miscalculated and fell into his trap, wouldn’t that be...

”Hmph, no matter what, he is merely a Foundation Establishment cultivator.”

”Even if he possesses False Core-level strength, or techniques comparable to Core Formation, as long as I tread carefully, it won’t matter.”

Nangong Mili stood up resolutely, her figure graceful and enchanting, dressed in a flowing purple mist silk dress. The hem swayed lightly, revealing a glimpse of her fair and slender legs, paired with sharp purple high heels. She exuded an air of elegant nobility and alluring charm.

...
Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven.

Lu Changsheng gazed at Bai Ling, who was seated in meditation and cultivating.

After obtaining a legacy cultivation technique, Bai Ling’s cultivation speed had nearly doubled.

This was truly remarkable!

It was akin to elevating her original top-grade spiritual root speed to the level of an Earth Spirit Root, or even comparable to a Heavenly Spiritual Root.

”At this rate, Ling’er might be the fastest in the family to cultivate to the peak of Foundation Establishment...”

Lu Changsheng thought to himself with deep emotion.

He knew that Bai Ling’s remarkable improvement in cultivation speed was not only due to the compatibility of the technique but was also connected to her recent bloodline awakening.

This bloodline awakening effectively raised Bai Ling’s innate talent by a whole level.

”But the more extraordinary Ling’er’s bloodline, the more extraordinary the child she carries will be.”

”I just don’t know whether this child will be human... or half-demon...”

Lu Changsheng glanced at the flat belly beneath Bai Ling’s white dress and pondered silently.

”Brother~”

After briefly assessing her cultivation progress, Bai Ling opened her eyes with a delighted expression, calling out cheerfully to Lu Changsheng.

”Very good. But Ling’er, you’re pregnant now, so there’s no need to cultivate so diligently every single day.”

Lu Changsheng said softly to Bai Ling.

During the early stages of pregnancy, women could still cultivate. However, after several months, cultivation could pose some risks.

”Okay~”

Bai Ling beamed with joy and nodded earnestly.

Although it was her first pregnancy, she was already well aware of the taboos surrounding it.

The two walked out of Changsheng Hall together, arriving at the Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven, near the Peachwood Spirit Womb.

”Hong Lian...”

Lu Changsheng asked Hong Lian whether she had ever heard of a True Spirit named Bai Xi.

”Bai Xi?”

Hong Lian pondered for a moment before replying that she hadn’t heard of such a True Spirit.

It wasn’t that the True Spirit didn’t exist.

Rather, information about True Spirits was incredibly scarce.

Aside from certain Zhenling families, or forces that had served True Spirits, others had little access to such information.

Most people could only glean a fragmented understanding from the brief snippets found in ancient texts.

”Alright.”

Lu Changsheng didn’t mind the reply.

The less information there was, the more mysterious the True Spirit seemed—an indicator of how extraordinary it might be.

”Ling’er, just focus on nurturing the child. Don’t mind these matters. If you feel unwell at any point, let me know immediately.”

Lu Changsheng reassured Bai Ling gently, noticing her slight worry.

Soon, the two made their way to the Lu Family Mansion.

Bai Ling joyfully shared the news of her pregnancy with Ling Zixiao, Lu Miaoyun, and Qu Zhenzhen.

”Ling’er, congratulations.”

”Ling’er, congratulations to you!”

The other women immediately congratulated Bai Ling upon hearing the news.

After years of living together, they had grown fond of the shy and timid young woman.

They knew she had always longed to bear descendants for her husband.

Yet, all these years, she had been unable to conceive.

Now, upon learning that Bai Ling was finally pregnant, they were sincerely happy for her.

Just as Lu Changsheng was chatting with his wives and concubines—

Lu Xingyang arrived to report some news: the Sima Family had sent people.

”So the Sima Family finally sent someone, huh.”

Ling Zixiao, dressed in a lake-blue gown, her demeanor poised and elegant, commented.

The feud between the two families had become a widely discussed topic.

Though the Lu Family hadn’t taken the initiative to contact the Sima Family, the latter could hardly ignore the matter regarding Sima Tong.

”Father, the people from the Sima Family have arrived along with representatives from the Qingyun Sect.”

Lu Xingyang continued.

”Qingyun Sect?”

Lu Miaoyun and Qu Zhenzhen were visibly surprised upon hearing this.

Although the Sima Family had influence within the Qingyun Sect—

This conflict was, without doubt, caused by the Sima Family. Why should the Qingyun Sect get involved?

”It might be due to Ping’an’s False Core combat prowess and husband’s status as a Third-Rank Talisman Master.”

Ling Zixiao explained calmly.

Ordinary families usually wouldn’t attract Qingyun Sect’s attention.

But once a family reached a certain level of strength—such as having multiple top-tier Foundation Establishment cultivators, or False Core-level warriors—the Qingyun Sect would begin to take notice.

There was even a belief that when a family’s power reached those heights, it was almost obligatory to seek a faction within the Qingyun Sect as a patron or ally.

Furthermore, if a family produced a Third-Rank Talisman Master, even the Qingyun Sect would consider extending an olive branch, inviting them to become a Guest Elder.

”With both the Qingyun Sect and Sima Family representatives arriving together, it’s likely they’re here as mediators.”

Ling Zixiao smiled gracefully as she continued.

”Since they’ve come, let’s meet them.”

Lu Changsheng said with a smile, joining Ling Zixiao to greet the guests.

Moments later, the two entered the reception hall.

Inside, a man and a woman were seated.

The man appeared to be about thirty years old, with a heroic and commanding presence. He possessed Ninth Layer Foundation Establishment cultivation.

The woman was around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, her features serene and refined, with Sixth Layer Foundation Establishment cultivation.

”Greetings to Mountain Lord Lu and Lady Lu. I am Song Cheng, a disciple of Qingyun Sect’s Red Sun Peak.”

The man stood up promptly upon seeing Lu Changsheng and Ling Zixiao, offering a respectful fist-and-palm salute.
