Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family - Chapter 121: Lord Lu is Lu Changsheng?

Chapter 121: Lord Lu is Lu Changsheng?

“What’s going on!”

“Master Meng, how could you attack the Ancestor!”

“Be careful, Ancestor!”

Inside Hongye Valley, the Chen Family cultivators who were operating the grand formation saw Meng Xiaocan suddenly rise to the sky, with purple flames appearing in her hands, charging towards the Chen Family Ancestor. Their faces were filled with shock.

Not just them.

Outside Hongye Valley, the two families of cultivators who were breaking the formation, including Lu Family’s Ancestor Lu Yuanzhong, also witnessed this scene and couldn’t help but be stunned.

It was utterly bewildering.

They couldn’t understand what was happening.

Why did Meng Xiaocan suddenly attack the Chen Family Ancestor?

But then they saw the purple flames in Meng Xiaocan’s hands.

She then merged her powers and unleashed a massive purple fire python, emitting intense magical fluctuations, charging towards the Chen Family Ancestor.

“Daoist Meng, what are you doing?!”

The Chen Family Ancestor also sensed something was off and hastily turned around, looking at the incoming fire python in shock.

He quickly took out an icy blue Talisman and activated it.

In an instant, a terrifying cold wind swept out.

It seemed to freeze the entire sky and earth, forming a wall of ice to block the fire python.

The fire python let out a roar, quickly melting the ice walls.

“Dare to harm Lord Lu, you’ll die!”

Meng Xiaocan glared at the Chen Family Ancestor, her eyes filled with killing intent.

She took out a set of flying knives, magical weapons, and swiftly attacked.

At the same time, she slapped her Beast pouch, and a swarm of colorful, differently sized insects poured out, charging towards the Chen Family Ancestor.

“Lord Lu? Who is this Lord Lu? Could it be someone from the Lu Family?!”

“Daoist Meng is actually the Lu Family’s back-up!?” 

“The Lu Family is truly capable of enduring, actually letting a Foundation Establishment cultivator infiltrate our Chen Family!”

“You Lu Family have three Foundation Establishment cultivators, but you’ve been retreating step by step, showing weakness, it’s truly detestable!”

“It’s over, our Chen Family is finished!”

Patriarch Chen Shuisheng and the Chen Family elders saw this scene and heard these words, their faces changing drastically, revealing despair.

They thought Meng Xiaocan was a mole from the Lu Family.

Initially, when Meng Xiaocan came to the Chen Family, they naturally investigated Meng Xiaocan’s background information.

But they didn’t discover any connections with the Lu Family.

Moreover, they were cautious around Meng Xiaocan and didn’t reveal too much information.

But who would have thought that Meng Xiaocan would actually betray them at this critical moment?

The Chen Family was already struggling to resist the Lu Family and the Bai Family, with three Foundation Establishment masters. 

Now, another Foundation Establishment master had turned against them, launching a sneak attack from within. The Chen Family was powerless to resist.

In an instant, a sense of fear and despair spread through the hearts of the Chen Family cultivators.

“Lord Lu? Who is this?”

Lu Family’s Old Ancestor and Lu Yuanzhong, who were facing off against the grand array, looked at each other in confusion, both somewhat bewildered.

They didn’t know what was going on.

Who was this so-called Lord Lu?

They clearly didn’t know this Foundation Establishment master!

“Old Ghost Lu, I didn’t expect you to be hiding so deeply!”

The Bai Family’s Old Ancestor, who was not far away, was also shocked beyond measure.

Upon hearing the name Lord Lu, he subconsciously believed that Meng Xiaocan was a secret agent arranged by the Lu Family.

This made him more cautious towards the Lu Family in his heart.

Lest he be schemed against by the Lu Family one day.

After all, the two families had been on good terms for generations, with no conflicts over interests.

But if it involved fundamental interests, this friendship could be severed at any moment.

“It’s him!”

Just as everyone was wondering who Lord Lu was, Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.

At a glance, he recognized the slender young man.

It was the young man who caused trouble with a Foundation Establishment artifact when he returned to Jiulong Market. 

Because the youth was the only person to have escaped from his hands.

And later, he had invited Lu Changsheng to explore the cave, which had led to the Peach Blossom Gu indicating Romantic Luck.

So Lu Changsheng remembered him deeply.

Who would have thought that they would meet again today?

And that the youth had become a Foundation Establishment great master?

“Could this Lord Lu be calling me?”

Lu Changsheng looked at the slender young man who was controlling the swarm of insects to attack the Chen Family’s Old Ancestor, and suddenly thought of something.

It was about the time when a mysterious purple-robed girl had attacked him with a Love Gu in Julong Market.

But back then, he couldn’t figure out what was going on.

How had he offended the other party?

Now, looking at the slender young man, he suddenly had a guess, a hunch.

The slender young man in front of him was actually the purple-robed girl.

It was through the Peach Blossom Gu’s Romantic Luck that he knew the young man was actually a woman in disguise.

Moreover, the insects didn’t distinguish between families, and the young man was skilled in controlling insects.

“If it’s like this, then everything makes sense?”

“She suddenly turned against them and attacked, could it be because the Chen Family’s Old Ancestor attacked me earlier?”

“If it’s like this, then the effect of that insect is too overbearing, right!?”

Lu Changsheng thought to himself.

He felt that things were very likely to be as he had guessed.

But he didn’t speak out.

After all, this was just a guess in his heart.

He didn’t dare to be 100% certain that the slender young man in front of him was the purple-robed girl.

Just as Lu Changsheng was thinking, Meng Xiaocan’s purple fire python had already broken through the ice wall and killed its way to the Chen Family’s Old Ancestor.

“Despicable, simply despicable!”

The Chen Family’s Old Ancestor looked at Meng Xiaocan’s killing intent and didn’t have time to think, let alone ask what was going on.

He took out a crimson flying sword, unleashing a powerful wave of spiritual energy, slashing towards the fire python in front of him and splitting it in two.

But at this time, a swarm of insects was surrounding him, making him panic, and he hastily used a spiritual seal, his robes fluttering, as a rolling wave of red flames spread out, like a fire cloud sweeping across, exterminating the insects.

“Break the array, break it with all your might!”

The Lu Family’s Old Ancestor saw the Chen Family’s Old Ancestor and Meng Xiaocan engaging in a fierce battle, causing the formation’s power to greatly decrease.

He knew that the Chen Family’s Old Ancestor was currently unable to focus on both the battle and maintaining the formation.

He immediately shouted out loud.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

The order was given, and the cultivators from the two families surrounding Hongye Valley all took out their magical weapons, activated their talismans, and unleashed their spells, attacking the formation.

Several formation masters also, at this moment, directly activated the formation to its limits, using the formation to push against the Hongye Valley’s grand array.

“Break!”

The Lu Family’s Old Ancestor, Lu Yuanzhong, and the Bai Family’s Old Ancestor all joined forces to attack the Hongye Valley’s grand array at this moment.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

“Rumble!”

The Hongye Valley’s grand array, which had already been weakened by the Chen Family’s Old Ancestor’s transformation from defense to offense, was now even more vulnerable.

With the Chen Family’s Old Ancestor currently unable to focus on maintaining the formation, the array’s power had dropped by another stage.

Under the continuous bombardment, with a loud explosive sound, the second-level grand array, like a jade bowl, shattered open.

“Pfft!”

The Chen Family’s Old Ancestor, who was maintaining the array, suddenly turned pale, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Not just him, the Chen Family disciples who were connected to the array through their qi also let out a groan, their breathing becoming disordered.

“No!”

Looking at the broken array, the Chen Family’s Old Ancestor, who was entangled with Meng Xiaocan, turned pale, his eyes almost bursting with anger.

He knew that their Chen Family was finished today.

“The grand array has been broken, kill!”

The Lu Family’s Old Ancestor gave the order.

At the same time, he transmitted a message to Lu Yuanzhong: “Yuanzhong, you suppress the array!”

After saying that, he held a Qingzhu flying sword, unleashing a sharp and fierce aura, killing his way towards the Chen Family’s Old Ancestor, who was still entangled with Meng Xiaocan, to prevent him from escaping.

“Old Ancestor, you must leave quickly!”

Inside Hongye Valley, many Chen Family elders shouted loudly towards the Chen Family’s Old Ancestor.

They were very clear in their hearts.

The Chen Family was finished.

After today, there would be no more Hongye Valley Chen Family.

But if the Chen Family’s Old Ancestor could escape, he could still take the Chen Family disciples outside and flee to a distant land to develop.

Their Chen Family still had hope for a comeback.

But if the Chen Family’s Old Ancestor also died, their chances of revival would be extremely slim.

“Old Ghost Chen, it’s time for you to take your leave!”

The Bai Family’s Old Ancestor also gave the order, letting the Bai Family cultivators kill their way towards Hongye Valley.

He then transformed into a streak of light, killing his way towards the Chen Family’s Old Ancestor.

Even though he currently had some reservations towards the Lu Family in his heart.

But he couldn’t possibly go back on his word and not take action at this time.

After all, now that the Hongye Valley’s grand array had been broken, it was time to divide the spoils.

“Old Ghost Lu, you’ve been hiding very deeply. When did you start plotting against my Chen Family?”

The Chen Family’s Old Ancestor’s robes were fluttering, his hair was disheveled, and his body was surrounded by a fierce, blazing flame, burning away the swarming insects.

He looked at the Lu Family’s Old Ancestor, who was killing his way towards him, and asked in a deep voice.

“You can take your doubts to your grave!”

The Lu Family’s Old Ancestor replied coldly.

He himself was also puzzled, unsure of what was going on with Meng Xiaocan, who was fighting the Chen Family’s Old Ancestor.

But no matter what the situation was, this was an opportunity.

He would take this opportunity to kill the Chen Family’s Old Ancestor, ending the blood feud between their Lu Family and Chen Family.

“Good, good, good, today I’m finished!”

The Chen Family’s Old Ancestor looked at the three Foundation Establishment masters surrounding him and knew that he couldn’t escape his fate today.

He tapped his Dantian, causing his entire body’s qi and magical energy to surge, and his pale face to regain some color.

It was clear that he was using some kind of secret technique to temporarily suppress his injuries and boost his combat power.

“Even if I’m going to die today, you’ll have to pay the price too!”

The Chen Family’s Old Ancestor glanced at Lu Yuanzhong in the distance, feeling some regret.

He then looked at the Bai Family’s Old Ancestor, let out a loud roar, and killed his way towards him.

He was very clear in his heart that among the three Foundation Establishment masters, the Bai Family’s Old Ancestor was the one who didn’t dare to fight him head-on, and was the weak point.

If he could kill the Bai Family’s Old Ancestor, it would cause chaos in the Bai Family.

As for the Lu Family’s Old Ancestor, he only had a short time left to live anyway.

With Lu Yuanzhong around, even if he killed the Lu Family’s Old Ancestor, it wouldn’t have much significance.

“Old Ghost Chen, you think you can bully me like this!!”

The Bai Family’s Old Ancestor saw the Chen Family’s Old Ancestor killing his way towards him and couldn’t help but curse in anger.

This was clearly a scheme led by the Lu Family, so why was he being targeted?

But he also guessed the Chen Family’s Old Ancestor’s plan, thinking that he wanted to use him as a breakthrough point, and quickly took out a colorful feather robe, unleashing a radiant divine light.

“Chen Family cultivators, kill!”

“Those who resist and refuse to surrender, kill!!”

“Those who intentionally damage property, kill!!”

Just as the three Foundation Establishment masters were surrounding the Chen Family’s Old Ancestor, Lu Yuanzhong stood tall in the air above Hongye Valley, maintaining the formation, and watched as the two families’ cultivators killed their way towards the Chen Family.

At this time, the Fourth Elder didn’t ask Lu Changsheng about the second-order talisman.

They drove the flying boat, bringing Lu Changsheng, Lu Miaoyun, and others into Hongye Valley, and began to kill with a flying sword.

“Ah, this is the world of cultivation.”

Lu Changsheng looked at the killing before his eyes and let out a soft sigh.

He had also experienced many killings.

Usually, when encountering a calamity, he would kill without any emotional fluctuations.

But at this moment, the large-scale killing before his eyes still made him feel a sense of regret.

However, he didn’t have too much sentiment.

Over the years, he had gradually adapted to the rules of the cultivation world, where the strong preyed on the weak.

If you didn’t kill others, others would kill you.

If the Lu Family lost today, this would be their fate.

“Ah, I’ll fight you all to the death!”

A Qi Refining ninth-stage Chen Family cultivator controlled magical weapons, manipulated puppets, and activated several Talisman arrays to fight against the three Lu Family elders.

But in the next moment, Lu Yuanzhong, who was maintaining the formation in the air, took action.

With a wave of his hand, he directly slapped the Chen Family cultivator to death.

Lu Changsheng recognized this Chen Family cultivator.

It was Chen Shuisheng, the Patriarch of the Chen Family, who had ambushed him and Lu Yuanding on their way to Qingzhu Mountain from Blue Cloud Sect.

But now, this Chen Family Patriarch had been slapped to death by Lu Yuanzhong.

“This is the difference between Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment.”

Lu Changsheng thought to himself.

“Patriarch! Even if we die, our Chen Family will never surrender!”

“We’ll fight to the death!”

Except for a few outer-sect cultivators who knelt down to beg for mercy, the Chen Family’s bloodline all fought back to the death.

Because they knew they were going to die anyway.

It was better to fight than to wait for death.

“Kill!”

At this time, a Chen Family cultivator with a ferocious face drove a flying sword towards Lu Miaoyun.

“Miaoyun, be careful.”

Lu Changsheng immediately activated a Talisman array, transforming into a protective light shield that protected Lu Miaoyun.

Then, the Qingyan Sword was unsheathed, transforming into a sharp sword light that shot out, piercing the cultivator’s chest.

“Ugh… ugh… ugh…”

The Chen Family cultivator’s mouth was filled with blood, and he looked at Lu Changsheng and the others with a unwilling expression before falling to the ground.

“Miaoyun, you stay by my side.”

Lu Changsheng said calmly to Lu Miaoyun.

Although Lu Miaoyun had a Qi Refining of fifth stage, she didn’t have much experience in actual combat.

This was also the reason why the Lu Family and the Bai Family had brought their younger generation to this place.

Cultivation wasn’t just about sitting in meditation and riding on a crane, feeling carefree.

It was about having a fearless heart, killing demons, and seeking the true self through a path of blood and fire.

This long and arduous path of cultivation was destined to be filled with countless tribulations and tempered by blood.

“Yes.”

Lu Miaoyun nodded obediently, somewhat surprised by her husband’s strength.

In the midst of this killing, he was still so calm.

The Fourth Elder on the side also looked at Lu Changsheng with some surprise, feeling that their son-in-law was becoming more and more mysterious and hard to understand.

Not only did he just take out a second-tier talisman.

Now, he’s even killing a Qi Refining sixth-stage cultivator with such ease.

You should know that Lu Changsheng’s cultivation is only at Qi Refining sixth-stage as well.

“No wonder Changsheng was able to escape from three Qi Refining late-stage cultivators back then.”

The Fourth Elder couldn’t help but think to herself.

She then instructed, “Changseng, Miaoyun, you both be careful and don’t stray too far from Grandma.”

Although this battle was a walkover, the cornered beast would still struggle.

The Chen Family’s final counterattack would inevitably harm or even kill some of the Lu Family and Bai Family juniors.

This was unavoidable.

“Don’t worry, Grandma.”

Lu Changsheng nodded.

He wasn’t interested in taking credit for killing enemies.

If Chen Family cultivators came to attack, he would take them down.

If not, he would stay by the Fourth Elder’s side with Lu Miaoyun.

At this moment, in the sky above Hongye Valley,

“Ah!!”

The Chen Family Patriarch, under the siege of three Foundation Establishment cultivators, had disheveled hair, spat out blood, and was covered in wounds, his entire body trembling with rage.

The moment the grand formation was broken, his spiritual powers were damaged.

Now, being surrounded by three people and seeing his clansmen being slaughtered, he was filled with utmost frustration.

“Die, all of you!”

“Rumble!”

The Chen Family Patriarch knew he was done for.

His secret technique had reached its limit.

He directly detonated his spiritual weapons.

And took out a blue orb, charging towards the Bai Family Patriarch.

After all, in his eyes, this battle was indeed because of Meng Xiaochan.

But he hated the Lu Family and Bai Family even more, and he would take them down with him even in death.

“Rumble rumble!”

Under the explosion of the spiritual weapons and the Heavenly Thunder Bead, a shocking and earth-shaking sound and a dazzling white light erupted in the sky, causing everyone in Hongye Valley to look up at the brilliant white light.

“Ancestor!”

“Old Man Lu!”

Lu Yuanzhong and the Bai Family Patriarch rushed towards the white light.

“Cough, cough, if I hadn’t been prepared earlier, I might have really fallen due to Old Spirit Chen’s desperate counterattack.”

The Lu Family Patriarch coughed up blood.

“No worries, I had also anticipated this old demon’s desperate struggle.”

The ancestor of the Bai family also coughed up blood in his mouth, and the spiritual weapons and feather cloak on his body were also damaged. 

He became very angry when he thought that the ancestor of the Chen Family wanted to die with him. 

The injuries from this battle would take at least three to five years to recover from.

As the massive explosion subsided, the Chen Family Patriarch died, and Meng Xiaochan’s mind cleared up a bit.

Her disguise as a young man also broke at this moment.

From a slender young man, she transformed into a beautiful, slender, and elegant purple-clad girl with a refined face and an otherworldly aura.

She had also been injured in the battle and the spiritual weapons’ self-destruction.

Her face was a bit pale, making her beauty seem even more pitiful.

“This Love-locking Gu is too terrifying.”

At this moment, Meng Xiaochan had a deeper understanding of the horrors of the Love-locking Gu.

She hadn’t even taken action against Lu Changsheng herself.

She had only let the Chen Family Patriarch take action.

But seeing the Chen Family Patriarch attack Lu Changsheng, the emotions in her heart overflowed, causing her to lose her rationality.

Her mind was filled with only one thought: to die for love.

“Once the Love-locking Gu takes effect, it’s difficult to escape, no matter how hard you try.”

“I can’t continue like this; it’s better to leave Jiang Country while I still have my senses and never see him again.”

“And this person is like my natural enemy.”

At this moment, Meng Xiaochan’s heart was filled with fear and no longer harbored any malice towards Lu Changsheng, only love.

She didn’t dare to suppress the effects of the Love-locking Gu anymore.

She knew that the more she resisted, the more she would sink into it.

Especially with these emotions bursting forth like a tidal wave, causing her to lose her rationality.

Moreover, after being defeated by Lu Changsheng three times, she had given up on her thoughts of revenge.

The first time, she almost lost her life and had to sacrifice two Foundation Establishment spiritual objects.

The second time, not only did she lose the Love-locking Gu, but the Gu Insect also backfired, causing her to lose even more.

Now, in the third instance, she had fought the Chen Family Patriarch for Lu Changsheng’s sake, almost losing her life again.

She didn’t dare to think about what would happen if she tried again.

“Many thanks to this fellow Daoist for their assistance.”

The Lu Family Patriarch didn’t pay attention to Meng Xiaochan’s change in appearance, and politely bowed his hands.

This battle would have been impossible to win without Meng Xiaochan’s help.

Even if they could have taken down Hongye Valley, he, the Lu Family Patriarch, would have had to fight the Chen Family Patriarch to the death, sacrificing himself in the process.

“No need to be polite, I helped you all because of Lord Lu,” Meng Xiaochan said with a hint of resentment in her voice.

As she spoke, her beautiful eyes, filled with resentment and emotions, gazed towards a young man with a tall and straight figure, a handsome face, and a sword in hand, inside Hongye Valley.

“Lord Lu?”

The Lu Family Patriarch, the Bai Family Patriarch, and Lu Yuanzhong were all taken aback upon hearing this title.

They didn’t know who this Lord Lu was.

Following Meng Xiaochan’s gaze, they immediately saw the Fourth Elder, Lu Changsheng, Lu Miaoyun, and others.

“Lu Changsheng?”

The Lu Family Patriarch’s eyes locked onto Lu Changsheng, and he guessed that this Lord Lu was indeed Lu Changsheng.

This made the Foundation Establishment Patriarch’s heart surge with shock and astonishment.

He had initially thought that Lu Changsheng was extraordinary, with great luck and fate.

But this was too unbelievable.

How could a Qi Refining cultivator like Lu Changsheng make a Foundation Establishment cultivator like Meng Xiaochan reveal such emotions?

Moreover, he remembered that Lu Yuanding and the Fourth Elder had told him about Lu Changsheng’s situation, saying that he liked to marry and have children, with many wives and concubines.

And yet, despite this, a Foundation Establishment cultivator like Meng Xiaochan had fallen for him.

The Lu Family Patriarch was at a loss for words.

“Lu Changsheng?”

Lu Yuanzhong also followed Meng Xiaochan’s gaze, his eyes filled with shock and doubt as he looked at Lu Changsheng.

He wasn’t very clear about Lu Changsheng’s situation.

But Meng Xiaochan’s words and gaze had left him bewildered.

“Lu Changsheng?”

The situation before him made the Bai Family Ancestor feel uneasy as well.

This Foundation Establishment cultivator seemed to be not just a spy arranged by the Lu Family Patriarch within the Chen Family.

It seemed to be because of a Lu Family junior.

Looking at Meng Xiaochan’s gentle and affectionate gaze, filled with resentment, towards a Qi Refining cultivator, he felt like he was in a dream.

Even though this Qi Refining cultivator was indeed handsome and extraordinary.

“When did the cultivation world become so focused on looks?!”

Just as the three Foundation Establishment Patriarchs were doubting their lives, Meng Xiaochan’s clothes fluttered in the wind as she flew towards Lu Changsheng in Hongye Valley.
