Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family - Chapter 123: Foundation Establishment, It's Settled!
Chapter 123: Foundation Establishment, It’s Settled!
“Why are there two Foundation Establishment great masters coming here suddenly?”
“That old man in black, should be the ancestor of the Zheng Family from Wugong Ridge, right?”
“It should be, and the other one, without a doubt, is the Foundation Establishment ancestor of the Yu Family from Green Lake Mountain.”
“Why are the Yu Family from Green Lake Mountain and the Zheng Family from Wugong Ridge together?”
“Definitely because they saw us take down Hongye Valley, so they want to get a piece of the action.”
“No mistake, judging from the situation just now, they almost took action.”
“Now that our two families have just conquered Hongye Valley, people from Yu Family and Zheng Family have come. Obviously, they want to take advantage of the situation.”
Inside Hongye Valley, many Lu Family disciples and white-clothed cultivators looked on, guessing the intentions of the two Foundation Establishment masters, and couldn’t help but feel indignant.
Today, they had finally taken down Hongye Valley with great difficulty, and were just about to enjoy the fruits of their labor.
But before they could even enjoy the fruits, the Yu Family and the Zheng Family had sent over Foundation Establishment masters.
It was clear that they wanted to snatch the spoils of war.
Naturally, this made everyone feel very unhappy.
But even though they were unhappy, everyone only dared to discuss it in hushed tones.
“Lu Changsheng, thanks to you knowing that Foundation Establishment master, otherwise, we might have really been taken advantage of today.”
At this time, Lu Miaohuan also spoke up, her face filled with anger.
It was clear that she was very unhappy about the two Foundation Establishment masters coming to take advantage of the situation.
“By the way, Lu Changsheng, what was in the gift that Foundation Establishment master gave you?”
Lu Miaohuan continued to ask, completely unlike her usual cold demeanor, and instead looked like a curious child.
“Just some spirit stones and cultivation resources,”
Lu Changsheng replied casually.
He hadn’t taken a close look at the gift Meng Xiaocan had sent him.
He had only taken a quick glance.
He saw that the storage bag contained a pile of spirit stones, two ceramic bottles, and a jade box.
“Cultivation resources?”
Lu Miaohuan asked, not probing further.
She continued, “When we get back, the family will definitely reward you greatly, and by then, you won’t lack cultivation resources.”
“Should be,” Lu Changsheng replied, not very concerned about the reward.
After all, he had the Talisman crafting skill, and occasional external assistance, so he wasn’t lacking in cultivation resources.
If he really lacked anything, it would be a Foundation Establishment pill.
But the Lu Family clearly didn’t have a Foundation Establishment pill.
Even if they did, it was impossible that they would give him one as a reward.
Looking at the chattering Miss Lu Miaohuan in front of him, Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow and say, “Miss, if I were to ask the Patriarch to propose a marriage alliance instead of a reward, do you think the Patriarch would agree?”
“Ah!?!?”
Lu Miaohuan was shocked by these words and let out a loud cry.
Subconsciously, Lu Miaohuan thought that Lu Changsheng was going to propose to her.
Suddenly, a sense of shame surged in her heart, and her mind went blank.
Her delicate face, as white as jade, instantly turned bright red and hot.
“How would I know such a thing!”
Lu Miaohuan felt her face burning with shame, and her voice was filled with embarrassment as she shouted.
She quickly got up and left, leaving behind a trail of fragrance.
“Is it that easy to get embarrassed?”
Lu Changsheng looked at Lu Miaohuan’s retreating figure, her back view fleeing in a hurry, and couldn’t help but shake his head and laugh.
It seemed that teasing this Second Miss was quite entertaining.
Especially since this Second Miss usually looked cold and noble, but in reality, she was not as calm as she seemed.
One tease and she would blush with shame, which was quite amusing.
However, Lu Changsheng’s words weren’t entirely meant to tease Lu Miaohuan.
He indeed had this idea.
But it wasn’t to propose to Lu Yuanding and marry Lu Miaohuan.
Rather, it was to propose to Lu Yuanding and marry both Lu Miaoge and Lu Miaohuan.
After all, with the relationships between the sisters having reached this point, it was time to take their relationship to the next stage.
Lu Miaoge, who was sitting quietly beside him, also slightly froze when Lu Changsheng asked this question, her lips lightly pursed.
Seeing her sister’s face flushed with shame, fleeing in a hurry, she let out a soft sigh.
Then, with a calm and gentle tone, she said, “I’ll go take a look at Huanhuan.”
“Sister Miaoge.”
Lu Changsheng called out to Lu Miaoge.
“What’s wrong?”
Lu Miaoge looked at Lu Changsheng with a calm expression.
But her autumn-water-like eyes couldn’t help but reveal a hint of panic.
“Sister Miaoge, if I were to propose to Patriarch, would you be willing to marry me?”
Lu Changsheng asked in a transmitted voice.
He felt that Lu Miaoge’s mindset was difficult to overcome, especially since his relationship with Lu Miaohuan had added another obstacle in her heart.
So Lu Changsheng felt that he needed to take the initiative with Lu Miaoge.
“No worries, Sister Miaoge, you can take your time to answer me.”
Seeing Lu Miaoge pursed her lips and didn’t speak, Lu Changsheng didn’t press and said so.
He knew that such matters couldn’t be rushed.
It was necessary to give the other person some time to think.
“Okay.”
Then Lu Miaoge nodded slightly, and left with a confused heart.
“Is the husband planning to propose to Uncle Yuanting, to marry Sister Miaoge or Miaohuan sister?”
“Or, is he planning to marry both Sister Miaoge and Miaohuan sister and bring them home together?”
Lu Miaoyun, who was standing aside, saw the two sisters leaving, and pouted at Lu Changsheng, her voice tinged with a hint of jealousy.
“Hmm.”
Lu Changsheng was teased by his wife, and couldn’t help but touch his nose.
After all, his wife was by his side, and he was flirting with her sister.
Moreover, it was his wife’s sister.
Even though Lu Miaoyun had mentioned this before, he still felt a bit embarrassed.
“I think Sister Miaohuan has already fallen deeply in love with husband, if husband proposes to Uncle Yuanting, I’m sure he will agree.”
“But if the husband proposes to Uncle Yuanting and wants to marry both Sister Miaoge and Miaohuan sister at the same time, it might be a bit difficult.”
Lu Miaoyun looked at her husband with a loving gaze.
“Yun’er, I’m sorry for wronging you.”
Lu Changsheng didn’t mind his wife’s teasing, and gently hugged her, speaking softly.
“Husband.”
Lu Miaoyun leaned against Lu Changsheng, resting her head on his chest.
She had indeed opened up to the idea of Lu Changsheng taking concubines.
But to say she wasn’t a little unhappy would be impossible.
Or rather, in the past, Lu Changsheng would only buy some servant girls, and she didn’t mind.
But if Lu Changsheng really brought Lu Miaoge and Lu Miaohuan home as wives, the two women would definitely not be willing to be concubines.
In this situation, as the wife, she couldn’t help but feel a little unhappy.
“If husband really wants to marry both Sister Miaoge and Sister Miaohuan, he can ask the ancestors for permission.”
Lu Miaoyun leaned against Lu Changsheng, speaking softly.
Although she felt a little jealous.
But thinking that even a Foundation Establishment cultivator was in a relationship with her husband.
Who knew if her husband would bring back other women in the future?
Rather than that, it was better to let her husband marry her own sisters.
At least they would be family, knowing each other’s roots, and could live in harmony.
“Yun’er.”
Lu Changsheng felt even worse when he heard his little wife giving him advice at this time.
In his heart, he had already made up his mind to make it up to Lu Miaoyun in the future.
Night had fallen.
“Changseng, Yun’er, let’s go back with me.”
The busy Fourth Elder and two clan elders, who had been preparing to ride the flying boat, were taking some of the younger generation and the wounded back to Qingzhu Mountain.
Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoyun immediately boarded the flying boat and headed back with the Fourth Elder.
After all, they didn’t have anything to do in Hongye Valley anymore.
It was better to head back and rest early.
“Grandma, are those two Foundation Establishment cultivators from Green Lake Mountain Yu Family and Wugong Ridge Zheng Family?”
As the flying boat took off, Lu Changsheng asked the Fourth Elder.
Although he had already suspected that the two Foundation Establishment cultivators were from the Yu Family and Zheng Family, he still wanted to confirm with the Fourth Elder.
“No mistake, those two Foundation Establishment cultivators are the ancestors of Green Lake Mountain Yu Family and Wugong Ridge Zheng Family,” the Fourth Elders replied.
“The Yu Family is full of wild ambition. Previously, during the conflict between our Lu Family and Chen Family, we discovered the Yu Family’s shadow lurking in the background.”
“Now it seems that many things are related to the Yu Family.”
“Changseng, this time we’re lucky to have you, which made that senior Meng come out to help. Otherwise, we would have been taken advantage of by the Yu Family.”
The Fourth Elder continued, her tone somewhat angry and fearful.
She was very clear about the situation.
If it weren’t for Meng Xiaochan’s help, they would have been caught off guard by the Yu Family.
And the two family ancestors would have suffered heavy losses.
Today, they would have been caught in the Yu Family’s trap, with no way to escape.
“Yu Family,” Lu Changsheng muttered, nodding slightly.
He thought about how the third young master of the Yu Family had tried to recruit him, and how Lu Miaoge had been attacked by four Foundation Establishment cultivators, and how he and the Second Elder had encountered an ambush on their way back.
At that time, he had obtained a Yu Family token from the three Foundation Establishment cultivators, but he wasn’t sure if they were from the Yu Family.
Now, after hearing the Fourth Elders’ words, he was almost certain that they were sent by the Yu Family.
It was all to weaken the Lu Family’s power and deepen the hatred between the Lu Family and Chen Family, allowing the Yu Family to reap the benefits.
“Grandma, what’s the situation now?” Lu Changsheng continued to ask.
“Although the Yu Family is powerful and overbearing, they don’t want to completely fall out with our Lu Family and the Bai Family, and engage in an all-out fight.”
“But this matter can’t be resolved peacefully, and currently, our Lu Family and the Bai Family are letting out some benefits to the Yu Family.”
“As for the specifics, Grandma isn’t clear, and we need to wait for the Ancestor’s decision.”
The Fourth Elder spoke up.
Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng nodded.
He knew that the matter was settled.
Next was the distribution of benefits.
“Although our Lu Family has two Foundation Establishment great masters, our overall strength is still no match for the Yu Family.”
“Now, our Lu Family’s Ancestor doesn’t have much time left, but the Yu Family’s two Foundation Establishment great masters are still young.”
“Previously, the Yu Family’s Third Young Master said that the Yu Family would produce a third Foundation Establishment great master within ten years.”
“If they really do produce a third Foundation Establishment great master, it’s likely that our Lu Family, the Bai Family, and the Zheng Family will have to form an alliance.”
Lu Changsheng thought to himself.
He felt that if the Yu Family really did produce a third Foundation Establishment great master, it would be difficult to remain at peace.
If he wanted to live a peaceful life, it wouldn’t be that easy.
“I still need to hurry up and establish my foundation, only then can I truly stand firm.”
“If the Yu Family causes trouble in the future, affecting my cultivation, I’ll just use the Demonic Curse of Fate to take care of them.”
Lu Changsheng thought to himself.
“Changseng, can you still contact that Senior Meng?”
At this time, the Fourth Elder asked Lu Changsheng.
“Grandma, I didn’t leave any contact information with Xiaocheng.”
Lu Changsheng slightly shook his head.
He understood that it’s probably the Fourth Elder’s intention to have him invite Meng Xiaocan to sit in and intimidate.
This will give the Lu Family more leverage in the upcoming negotiations and distribution of benefits.
However, he didn’t have Meng Xiaocan’s contact information.
“No problem, Grandma was just asking casually.”
The Fourth Elder nodded slightly, not saying much more.
She could see that Lu Changsheng’s relationship with that Foundation Establishment cultivator was somewhat unusual.
It was also because of the Lu Family’s current situation that she asked about it.
She was thinking if they could use Meng Xiaocan, the Foundation Establishment cultivator, to alleviate some pressure for the Lu Family.
After all, the distribution of benefits in the future would depend on actual strength.
Under the full-speed flight of the Spirit Boat.
Four hours later, they returned to Qingzhu Mountain.
In the dark night, the entire Qingzhu Mountain was shrouded in a faint, ethereal glow.
It was as if it was wearing a layer of cyan-colored gauze, looking solemn and mysterious.
Lu Changsheng could see that this was the effect of Qingzhu Mountain’s grand formation being activated to a certain extent.
Activating the grand formation would likely consume a significant amount of energy.
The elder guarding Qingzhu Mountain saw the Fourth Elder and the others, and immediately released part of the formation, inquiring about the frontline battle situation.
Upon learning that the Lu Family and the Bai Family had already taken down Hongye Valley, they were overjoyed and welcomed everyone in.
“Changseng, Miaoyun, you’ve had a long day, go rest early.”
The Fourth Elder said to Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoyun as they entered Qingzhu Valley.
She still had to arrange for the wounded with several elders.
There were many Lu Family juniors injured in this battle, and they needed treatment.
“Grandma, you should rest early too.”
Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoyun nodded in response.
They then went to rest.
The lights in the house were still lit.
Qu Zhenzhen and several concubines had not rested yet, clearly worried about them.
When they saw Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoyun return, they immediately felt relieved.
“It’s okay, let’s rest early.”
Lu Changsheng led his wives back to their chambers to rest.
He didn’t overexert himself either.
After a busy day, he wasn’t tired.
But Lu Miaoyun seemed somewhat fatigued.
The next day.
Lu Changsheng woke up, spent some intimate time with his wives, and then headed to the study.
He took out the storage bag given to him by Meng Xiaocan yesterday.
Let’s see what’s inside.
In an instant, a pile of spirit stones appeared in the room.
Lu Changsheng counted them and found there were two thousand in total.
He then looked at the white jade porcelain bottle and white jade brocade box in the storage bag.
It was clear that these white jade porcelain bottles and brocade boxes were used to store precious pills and treasures.
Out of caution, Lu Changsheng took out his second-level puppet.
Then, he stood aside and let the puppet open the porcelain bottle and jade box.
Seeing that the porcelain bottle and jade box opened safely without any accidents, Lu Changsheng knew he was overthinking.
“Is this… Blood Spirit Mushroom?”
Lu Changsheng’s eyes narrowed slightly.
He immediately saw a Blood Spirit Mushroom, about the size of an infant’s arm, with a red mist surrounding it, placed in the jade box.
He recognized this spirit mushroom.
He had read many books and knew that this spirit mushroom, like the ‘Blood Yang Fruit’ he obtained from Xiaolong, was a Foundation Establishment spiritual object.
It could help break through the Qi Blood Barrier in the three levels of Foundation Establishment.
“Is this because I previously obtained a Foundation Establishment spiritual object for spiritual energy and spiritual consciousness from her, and I still needed a spiritual object for the Qi Blood Barrier, so she specially sent this to me?”
Lu Changsheng looked at the Blood Spirit Mushroom in front of him, feeling somewhat surprised.
He didn’t expect her to send him a Foundation Establishment spiritual object.
Although he already had a spiritual object to break through the ‘Qi Blood Barrier’, and each Foundation Establishment spiritual object could only be used once when breaking through the stages.
But who would complain about having too many spiritual objects like this?
Not to mention leaving it for the children in the future.
No matter where you sell it, it can at least sell for three thousand spirit stones.
Seeing this Blood Spirit Mushroom, Lu Changsheng had higher expectations for the things inside the two ceramic bottles.
He covered the jade box and looked inside the ceramic bottle.
“What is this?”
Lu Changsheng looked at the Pill inside the ceramic bottle and his eyes widened in disbelief.
He then carefully poured the crystal-clear Pill into his hand, examining it carefully.
After a moment…
“It’s really a Foundation Establishment Pill, and there are two of them!”
Lu Changsheng looked at the two Pills in his hand, taking a deep breath and exhaling slowly.
For a moment, he didn’t know what to say.
He had previously thought that if he wanted to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage, he would have to find a way to get a Foundation Establishment Pill.
But he didn’t expect that Meng Xiaocan would directly give him two.
And one of them was a high-quality Foundation Establishment Pill.
“This Foundation Establishment Pill has a dark color, it should be a low-quality Foundation Establishment Pill, which will have pill toxins and inferior effects after consumption.”
“But this Foundation Establishment Pill is a genuine high-quality Foundation Establishment Pill.”
Lu Changsheng looked at the two Foundation Establishment Pills in his hand, still in disbelief.
Originally, he had some resentment towards Meng Xiaocan in his heart.
He had thought that he would take revenge when they met again.
But now, seeing these two Foundation Establishment Pills…
Lu Changsheng felt that his hatred towards her could be written off.
“With these two Foundation Establishment Pills, I don’t have to worry about getting a Foundation Establishment Pill anymore, and I can focus on cultivating to the Qi Refining stage.”
“Next, I just need to focus on cultivating, and I can directly break through to the Foundation Establishment stage!”
Lu Changsheng was excited in his heart.
He had originally thought that he had a 50-60% chance of breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage.
But now, with his Spirit Root upgraded to medium-grade and the Foundation Establishment Pill as assistance, Lu Changsheng felt that breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage was a sure thing!
“But where did she get these Foundation Establishment Pills from? She can actually give me two at once?”
“No, she must have at least three Foundation Establishment Pills herself, since she’s already broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage!”
At this moment, Lu Changsheng was also shocked by Meng Xiaocan’s wealth.
He felt that she was simply a rich lady.
The first time he met, he obtained two Foundation Establishment spiritual objects from her.
The second time he met, he acquired a Gu Insect and even made Meng Xiaochan fall in love with him.
Now, on his third meeting, she’s sending him gifts.
Not only did he receive 2,000 spirit stones and a Foundation Establishment spiritual object, but also two Foundation Establishment pills!
If Foundation Establishment spiritual objects are already considered rare treasures, then Foundation Establishment pills are priceless.
Even if one of the two Foundation Establishment pills is of inferior quality, it could still be sold for a high price, attracting many buyers and fetching a price of over 10,000 spirit stones.
“Could it be that she obtained the materials to refine Foundation Establishment pills in the Purple Mist Secret Realm?” Lu Changsheng wondered to himself.
After all, aside from the Purple Mist Secret Realm, there’s hardly any other way for the Rouge Cultivator to obtain Foundation Establishment pills.
And considering Meng Xiaochan’s methods, it’s not surprising that she could gain something in the Purple Mist Secret Realm.
“However, before breaking through to Foundation Establishment, I mustn’t expose this inferior Foundation Establishment pill, or it’ll definitely attract unwanted attention.”
Lu Changsheng carefully put the two Foundation Establishment pills back into the porcelain bottle and stored them in his inventory bag.
He decided that he wouldn’t expose the Foundation Establishment pills until he broke through to Foundation Establishment.
It’s difficult for the Rouge Cultivator to obtain Foundation Establishment pills, and even if they appear at large auctions, one needs to have the power to protect them.
After all, Foundation Establishment pills are not only needed by Qi Refining cultivators, but also by many powerful forces to cultivate their younger generations.
That’s why Foundation Establishment pills are priceless, and every time they appear, they stir up a storm.
“Is it considered eating soft rice if I obtain Foundation Establishment pills so easily, and they’re even sent by a girl?”
Lu Changsheng thought about the Foundation Establishment pill he had been craving, and how it had fallen into his hands so effortlessly, feeling a sense of fantasy.
He also thought about the jade pendant given to him by the Core Formation true person.
As long as he broke through to Foundation Establishment, the other party would give him an opportunity.
“Alas, I really didn’t want to eat soft rice.”
Lu Changsheng let out a soft sigh, feeling that he was indeed walking the path of eating soft rice.
