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

Chapter 2008: 527 (3)

”Have I met this Elder Xuanmu before? Or did he meet me?”

Song Yudie speculated in her heart, but couldn’t recall and stopped her wild thoughts, heading off to handle some matters on the island.

Seeing Song Yudie leave, a divination coin appeared in Lu Changsheng’s palm, using a thread of azure silk as a medium to begin his divination calculations.

This thread of silk was precisely what he had just plucked from Song Yudie’s clothing.

With his cultivation level and skills, silently plucking a strand of hair from the head of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator was simplicity itself.

Using this thread of silk, Lu Changsheng discerned through divination a vague notion of his earlier impulse.

The latter was likely in possession of some kind of fortuitous treasure, representing a moderate opportunity for him.

”A treasure... a hidden spiritual body, perhaps.”

Divination should not be exhaustively calculated.

Moreover, most of the time, divinatory symbols provide only a general outline, not precise details, unless one is willing to pay a significant cost.
Yet through the subtle sensing of the Peach Blossom Gu earlier, Lu Changsheng instantly guessed that this opportunity likely involved the subject possessing some hidden spiritual body related to dual cultivation.

Only thus could the Peach Blossom Gu sense the presence of Peach Blossom Luck!

”Alas, my current aim is the Third Palace Master...”

Lu Changsheng was still contemplating how to further his relationship with Shen Yiren, the Third Palace Master, relegating the matter of Song Yudie to the sidelines. .

After all, he had just become an Honorary Elder of the Goddess Palace.

If he were to immediately target disciples of the Goddess Palace, it would tarnish his reputation.

If Shen Yiren learned of this and considered him promiscuous, it would be a Pyrrhic victory.

Moreover, according to the divination’s calculations and the subtle sensing of the Peach Blossom Gu, even though Song Yudie possessed a hidden spiritual body, it wasn’t extremely rare, likely just an upper class spiritual body.

Under such circumstances, the cultivation level of Foundation Establishment First Layer couldn’t offer him substantial help.

...

Time flew by unnoticed, and Lu Changsheng had been an Honorary Elder at the Goddess Palace for a month already.

He adapted to this new identity with ease.

One day, the Third Palace Master, Shen Yiren, came to visit.

Apart from catching up, she also delivered the first batch of talisman-making materials to his Cave Mansion.

Additionally, Shen Yiren brought along two disciples with considerable talent in talisman making, hoping he could guide them in his spare time.

As a leader of a force, a Guest Elder of Qingyun Sect, Lu Changsheng was well-versed in such matters.

He understood that such disciples were sent with hopes for his guidance and teaching.

On the other hand, it was to see if he would be inspired to take them as registered disciples.

This not only cultivates sect disciples but also strengthens his bonds with the Goddess Palace.

”Rest assured, Third Palace Master.”

Lu Changsheng said with a smile, chatting with Shen Yiren over tea and then using ”Public Administration Medical Skills” as a talking point.

He expressed his recent reflections from reading the book.

Shen Yiren’s interest was piqued instantly, and the two conversed animatedly.

Lu Changsheng didn’t exhaust the topic in one go.

After an hour, with lingering interest, he suggested hosting a banquet and cooking today.

Otherwise, he would need to focus on drawing talismans soon and wasn’t sure when he’d be free again.

”If so, then I’ll trouble you, Daoist Xuanmu.”

Seeing Lu Changsheng show such hospitality, Shen Yiren nodded in agreement.

Lu Changsheng did not take out the rare ingredients from his Storage Ring but instead instructed Song Yudie to send some food supplies over.

”Coincidentally, I’ve previously prepared some excellent ingredients at my mansion; Daoist Xuanmu, please wait a moment.”

Shen Yiren responded immediately upon hearing this, not wanting to take advantage.

”The Third Palace Master shouldn’t blame me for wasting your ingredients then.”

Lu Changsheng accepted without refusal, replying thus.

Occasionally asking the lady to contribute or request minor assistance fosters the relationship between the two.

”How could I?”

Though aware that Lu Changsheng was joking, Shen Yiren still gave him a charming glance.

Once the ingredients were brought over by Shen Yiren, Lu Changsheng began displaying his culinary skills.

Even though his cooking skills were at the Second Rank Top Level.

The Nascent Soul Level Soul’s precise control over fire and ingredient management was sufficient to elevate the food to the next level.

Even Shen Yiren, upon seeing it, couldn’t help but be dazzled.

”These are just ordinary dishes; please try them, Third Palace Master.”

As soon as a dish was prepared, Lu Changsheng invited Shen Yiren to taste it.

”Daoist Xuanmu’s spiritual chef skills seem to be advancing into the Third Rank.”

Shen Yiren seriously praised, admiring Lu Changsheng, who unexpectedly excelled in cooking.

”Mainly due to the quality of the Third Palace Master’s ingredients.”

Lu Changsheng also praised.

After a long while, a table of spirit food delicacies was ready, and the two sat down to feast.

Lu Changsheng didn’t forget his primary task: to use the Goddess Palace to inquire about the Infant Transformation Elixir.

”Third Palace Master, I wonder if your palace or Penglai Island hosts a high rank cultivator trading event?”

The best way to learn about the Infant Transformation Elixir is to continually attend high rank auctions or cultivator trading events.

However, such auctions usually occur once every ten years, or even decades.

Moreover, only people within the current circles know about high rank cultivator events, requiring connections.

Although Lu Changsheng is a high rank cultivator, he hadn’t yet cultivated a network of connections, so he wasn’t clear.

”High rank cultivator trading event?”

Shen Yiren gracefully contemplated, stating that Penglai Island does have such events, but they are held with auctions and occur once every three years.

Regarding smaller events organized by Nascent Soul Cultivators, she was not well-informed.

”I wonder if such high rank auctions or trading events have Nascent Soul resources available for sale?”

Lu Changsheng casually chatted while pouring Shen Yiren another glass of fruit wine.

”Yes, they do...”

Shen Yiren responded with a gentle smile, indicating that besides Nascent Soul Cultivators, elusive Nascent Soul True Lords would appear at these high rank auctions.

Thus, rare resources, including superior Nascent Soul Spiritual Objects, were often spotted there.

”However, such superior Nascent Soul Spiritual Objects are often hotly contested and auctioned at high premiums.”

Despite being the Third Palace Master of the Goddess Palace, Shen Yiren understood the difficulties faced by loose cultivators.

They often fought fiercely for one or two Nascent Soul Spiritual Objects or served major forces, spending their savings.

”If Daoist wishes to reach Nascent Soul, and is missing any Nascent Soul Spiritual Objects, needing purchase or exchange, perhaps I could help.”

Shen Yiren, as the Third Palace Master of the Goddess Palace, wielded considerable influence.

Having a favorable view of Lu Changsheng and considering him to have Nascent Soul potential, was willing to support him genuinely.

”I express my preliminary gratitude to the Third Palace Master.”

Lu Changsheng raised his glass in thanks, then continued chatting, inquiring whether the Starry Sky Sea would have any Infant Transformation Elixir flowing out.

”Apart from the Dan Alliance, there is rarely any Infant Transformation Elixir flowing through normally.”

Shen Yiren noted softly.
