Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family

Chapter 159: Chapter 98: Ah, these days are indeed full of hope! (Reset)_2

“In over three hundred years, I could have at least a thousand children.”

“By then, as long as the children work hard and make me proud, won’t I just be lying down to achieve Core Formation?”

“After Core Formation, with a lifespan of five hundred years and an extra hundred years from Lifespan Extension Pills, forming a Nascent Soul shouldn’t be a big problem, right?”

“Nascent Soul True Lord, tsk tsk, in this Jiang Country Cultivation Realm, a Nascent Soul True Lord is a dominant presence.”

“Even looking at the entire Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm, Nascent Soul True Lords are rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns!”

“Ah, life is indeed full of things to look forward to.”

“But with such a long lifespan, what am I going to do with my time? I can’t just stay home and keep having kids every day, can I?”

Lu Changsheng suddenly found himself in a happy predicament.

Before he knew it, over a month had passed.

During this time, Guan Xin and the maid Ye Lian became pregnant.

And Yun Qianqian’s child was also born.

However, this child did not have a Spiritual Root.

Lu Changsheng wasn’t disappointed by this.

Now that he had many wives and concubines, many of whom possess Spiritual Roots, they had all virtually had a turn giving birth.

Thus, his excitement over Spiritual Root-bearing wives and concubines having children had gradually diminished.

He could now look at it all with a normal heart.

After the child was born, Lu Changsheng took Yun Qianqian and the child to report the good news to Yu Maocheng and his wife.

After all, not only were they Yun Qianqian’s elders, they were also their matchmakers.

Now that the child was born, it was only natural to pay them a visit.

On hearing the joyful news, they were delighted and even hosted a small celebration with two tables at the Jade Meal Hall.

In the meantime, Yu Ningrong shared a piece of inside information with Lu Changsheng.

She said that the Lu Family Ancestor had at most ten years to live.

These words gave Lu Changsheng a momentary pause.

Previously, when he was in the Lu Family, he had vaguely heard that the Lu Family Ancestor was not in good health.

Now that Yu Ningrong was saying this, it felt very likely to be true.

This indicated that the situation for the Lu Family was not optimistic.

“If no new Foundation Building Great Cultivator emerges in the Lu Family before the Lu Family Ancestor’s demise, safeguarding the Spiritual Vein of Qingzhu Mountain will be very difficult.”

Lu Changsheng thought to himself.

In the Cultivation World, a Spiritual Vein Blessed Land is very important.

Many Loose Cultivators dream of owning their own Spiritual Vein Blessed Land, which is also considered a way to establish oneself in the Cultivation World.

If the Lu Family Ancestor dies and the deterrent is gone, Qingzhu Mountain will become a big juicy piece of meat, and everyone will want to take a bite.

Without going far, the Chen Family of Red Leaf Valley, the Lu Family’s sworn enemy, will not miss this opportunity.

Lu Changsheng didn’t give it much thought.

These were not matters he could concern himself with.

If the Lu Family Ancestor really runs into trouble and the Lu Family faces a crisis, he will naturally contribute where he can.

If he can’t help, then he’ll have to take his wives, concubines, and children and flee.

After all, he is just the son-in-law of the Lu Family, not one of their own.

He keeps the Lu Family’s kindness in mind.

But he won’t risk his life for the Lu Family.

He also doesn’t have the capability for that.

Half a month later.

Lu Changsheng received a letter from Qingzhu Mountain.

This came as a surprise to him.

After all, he used to visit once a month.

Now he only returns once every six months.

So, normally, there wouldn’t be any correspondence.

Moreover, the letter was delivered using urgent avian messenger service.

Lu Changsheng opened the letter.

It was from Lu Miaoyun.

In the letter, Lu Miaoyun said that something happened at home and he needed to come back to handle it.

The incident began when Lu Ping’an and a few little ones were playing outside with a Nine Netherhound.

A member of the Lu Family named Lu Miaoyang, seeing the Nine Netherhound, was filled with greed.

Seeing that Lu Ping’an and the others were young, he thought about tricking them into giving up the Nine Netherhound.

Lu Ping’an and the others, although young, were not foolish and quickly saw through the ruse.

This caused the other party to become furiously embarrassed and attempt to lay hands on Lu Ping’an.

In such a situation, how could the Nine Netherhound just watch its little master get hurt? It fiercely intervened.

And severely injured the Lu Family member.

Immediately, the incident blew up.

In a cultivation family like the Lu Family, the first rule is a strict ban on fighting.

Family disciples, under no circumstances, may engage in private feuds or conflicts, or raise their hands against others.

If there are any unsolvable resentments or differences, they can be reported directly to the family.

Then the Family Head or the elders can manage and resolve them.

Although the trouble was initially caused by the other party.

But now that he had been severely injured by a Nine Netherhound, according to the Lu Family clan rules, Lu Changsheng was also responsible.

Especially since this Lu Family disciple named Lu Miaoyang had a rather special situation.

He was a direct descendant of the Lu Family.

Both his parents were core members of the Lu Family.

However, ten years ago, Lu Miaoyang’s parents perished together in a great battle between the Lu Family and the Chen Family.

Now, only he remained in his household.

The Lu Family had always felt indebted to him and provided compensation.

Now, with this incident, he went directly to the Family Head, weeping and complaining, making a big fuss.

The Family Head, faced with such a situation, was helpless and thus had Lu Miaoyun send a message to Lu Changsheng.

Asking how he planned to deal with it.

If he could resolve it privately, that would be for the best.

Though Lu Miaoyang had unclean motives to begin with,

the fact that the Nine Netherhound had bitten someone and caused severe injuries was indeed a violation of the Lu Family’s clan rules.

If they were to follow the clan rules, there would be punishment for Lu Changsheng’s side; the Family Head hoped Lu Changsheng would understand.

“Although I had long anticipated that this day would come, I didn’t expect it so soon,”

Lu Changsheng said, shaking his head slightly.

He had known for a long time that as his wives and children increased,

these wives and children would inevitably cause trouble for him, the head of the family.

He would need to solve and clean up after these troubles.

He had also realized that as the Nine Netherhound grew, it became increasingly extraordinary, and could potentially become a target for others.

“But this cannot be blamed on Ping’an and the others; it was Lu Miaoyang who sought trouble first,”

“I had also instructed the Nine Netherhound not to harm people,”

“Now that Lu Miaoyang has been bitten, it shows that he brought it upon himself.”

Lu Changsheng exhaled lightly.

During his many years in the Lu Family, he had heard of someone like Lu Miaoyang.

He had a bad reputation.

He was known for his unruly character.

Relying on his parents’ legacy and the love of the Lu Family Ancestor, he had caused quite a few problems within the Lu Family.

He never thought that his own family would become entangled with such a person.

“Considering the Lu Family’s image, if it’s just a matter of paying some money to settle it privately, let’s try to settle it that way,”

After reading the letter, Lu Changsheng exhaled slowly,

deciding on his course of action.

If the other party was willing to let the matter go without making a fuss,

he was willing to pay to settle the problem in consideration of the Lu Family’s reputation.

If the other party was to make unreasonable demands, he couldn’t possibly just comply.

After all, the Lu Family owed Lu Miaoyang, but he owed him nothing.

Moreover, in Lu Changsheng’s view,

although the Nine Netherhound had caused severe injury, the beast wasn’t to blame.

You couldn’t possibly still lecture me about excessive defense after traversing to a new world, could you?

Lucky for him that this happened within the Lu Family,

if it had happened outside, dealing with such a matter by killing the other party wouldn’t have been too much.

After all, the Cultivation World is a jungle where the strong prey on the weak.

The other party coveted his Pet Beasts and lured his children, how could there be any reason for that?

Furthermore, he had always behaved properly, walking on thin ice and abiding by the rules, for fear of causing trouble.

Now that he had gained some strength and confidence,

if he continued to shrink back in the face of trouble, then what was the point of his efforts in cultivation?

With the increase in strength, a few more ounces of confidence grew in his heart, and Lu Changsheng’s attitude also shifted.

He was unwilling to be as compromising as before, suffering injustices.

His willingness to visit and resolve the matter was already in consideration of the Lu Family’s face.

Immediately,

Lu Changsheng put away the letter, went to the courtyard, and spoke to a group of wives, “There’s a small matter at home, I need to go back.”

He didn’t want to delay.

He planned to set off for Qingzhu Mountain right away and deal with the issue sooner rather than later.

“Husband, are you rushing back because something happened at home?”

Lu Qing’er knew that Lu Changsheng usually returned home once every six months.

His sudden return must mean that something had happened.

“It’s just a small family matter that requires me to make a trip back,”

said Lu Changsheng with a smile,

Then he turned to Xiao Qing and instructed, “Xiao Qing, go to the Spiritual Talisman Shop tomorrow and convey a message to Zhang Shan for me, tell him I had to leave due to urgent matters and that he should look after the shop.”

“Yes, young master,”

replied Xiao Qing obediently, noding.

She often visited the Spiritual Talisman Shop, so she was acquainted with Shopkeeper Zhang Shan.

Having finished giving instructions, Lu Changsheng then left the Nine Dragons Marketplace.

He took out an Iron Feather Eagle from his Spiritual Pet Bag and flew towards Qingzhu Mountain.
