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

Chapter 293: Chapter 139: The Master and Apprentice Arrive Together!_1
“Suddenly so proactive.”

Watching Xiao Xiyue riding away on the immortal crane, with her clothes fluttering and full of immortal aura, Lu Changsheng touched his nose.

He could still faintly smell the rich fragrance at his fingertips.

He could clearly feel the change in Xiao Xiyue after she woke up from her fainting spell.

Not only was her tone and demeanor no longer cold, but she also became much more proactive.

This feeling was quite pleasant.

“Phew, I should head back too. This trip has also shown me the gap between Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment. I need to reach Foundation Establishment as soon as possible.”

“Otherwise, without a Talisman Treasure or Treasure Bones, if I encounter another Foundation Building Great Cultivator, it would be troublesome.”

Lu Changsheng exhaled a long breath and rubbed his still faintly aching sternum.

That strike from the Treasure Bones meant he would need to recuperate for a while before he could fully recover.

“But what exactly did Xiao Xiyue mean when she said she would help me with Foundation Establishment?”

Lu Changsheng thought back to Xiao Xiyue offering to help him with his Foundation Establishment.

But when he asked about it, Xiao Xiyue remained silent and mysteriously indicated it would be a surprise for him.

Lu Changsheng speculated in his heart; could it be a Foundation Establishment Elixir or perhaps some kind of Secret Technique that assists with Foundation Establishment?

“But I already have a Foundation Establishment Elixir, and with my current situation, as long as I reach Qi Refinement Perfection, I have about a 90% chance of achieving Foundation Establishment. How else could she help?”

“Ninety-nine percent?”

Lu Changsheng smacked his lips and didn’t think further.

After causing the cave to collapse and dealing with the scene, he rode the Iron Feather Eagle and left.

Two days later, Lu Changsheng safely returned to Qingzhu Mountain.

His wife Lu Miaoyun, Lu Miaohuan, and several other women asked him why he had stayed in the secular world for so long.

Especially Lu Miaohuan, who was now about to give birth.

Seeing that Lu Changsheng had not yet returned, she was so distressed that she needed a lot of comforting from him.

He also explained why his trip took so long.

After the gathering, a good friend was leaving the mountain to gain experience, but had nowhere to go, so he accompanied him for a while.

Of course, he did not go into detail about how he provided the accompaniment.

After all, discussing such matters of helping others in their cultivation with his wife felt a bit strange to Lu Changsheng.

Especially since the second young mistress was about to give birth.

Hearing this, Lu Miaohuan and Qu Zhenzhen didn’t think much of it.

But Lu Miaoyun felt a strange sense of oddness when she heard that the Qingyun Sect disciple who accompanied her husband was a woman.

She always felt that her husband’s popularity with women was a bit too good.

Now, whenever she saw any woman with her husband, she couldn’t help but suspect something might happen.

However, she didn’t say anything about it.

She simply suggested that Lu Changsheng should cultivate a good relationship with Xiao Xiyue.

After all, the Cultivation World is also about personal connections and worldly wisdom.

Being able to maintain a good relationship with an Inner Sect Disciple of the Qingyun Sect was also a good thing.

…

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Xiao Xiyue had also returned to the Qingyun Sect.

“Senior Sister Xiao.”

“Junior Sister Xiao.”

“Senior Sister Xi Yue.”

Along the way, many Qingyun Sect disciples greeted Xiao Xiyue respectfully, paying respects or calling out to her.

Xiao Xiyue was not only beautiful and talented, but she was also a disciple of the Peak Master of Caiyun Peak, a Nascent Soul Immortal.

Thus, she had a wide reputation within the Qingyun Sect.

She was the goddess in many disciples’ hearts and was well-liked.

However, Xiao Xiyue was also known for her aloof and cold demeanor.

Many talented disciples of the Qingyun Sect sought her, but all were met with rejection.

“Hmm.”

Xiao Xiyue, with her cool and indifferent demeanor, was like the distant moon high above, unapproachable.

But she still retained her previous habit of responding simply to others’ greetings.

This was another reason many disciples liked her.

Xiao Xiyue did not delay much and upon entering the Qingyun Sect, she flew swiftly towards Caiyun Peak on her Cloud Veil Magic Artifact.

Arriving at the palace halls at the peak, she stood before a grand hall.

“Master.”

Xiao Xiyue paid her respects in front of the great hall.

The doors opened with a bang.

“Xi Yue, why have you returned? Has something happened?”

Yun Wanshang’s voice arose.

She knew that Xiao Xiyue’s trip down the mountain for her cultivation experience was to experience the trial of love and to find an opportunity for a breakthrough.

Thus, without anything major, she would not return so soon.

But now Xiao Xiyue had come back so quickly, and with her aura somewhat disordered, it made her realize that something must have happened.

“Reporting to Master…”

Xiao Xiyue walked into the great hall and related the encounter with the youth in red.

However, she chose to conceal specific details.

She changed the account of killing into escaping.

After all, Qi Refinement cultivators slaying a Foundation Building Great Cultivator was truly astonishing.

Especially since the red-robed youth was not a regular Foundation Establishment Cultivator, her master might even know him.

Yun Wanshang’s brow furrowed sharply as she listened, and a chill enveloped her heavenly features.

She had suspected that someone was intentionally meddling when Xiao Xiyue had been attacked by Red Luan, the old demon, on her way back with the Purple Spirit Liquid.

Now that her disciple, Xiao Xiyue, had been targeted so soon after leaving for her cultivation experience, and the attacker was targeting Xiao Xiyue and knew Yun Wanshang, it confirmed her suspicion that someone was targeting her from the shadows.

This led her to believe that this person was very likely within the Qingyun Sect itself.

“Xi Yue, don’t worry, leave this matter to me to handle,” said Yun Wanshang, suppressing the anger in her heart.

“Yes, Master,” responded Xiao Xiyue with a nod.

Then her mouth curved slightly as she said, “Master, I have found the opportunity for a breakthrough on this trip down the mountain.”

“What!?”

Yun Wanshang was taken aback, somewhat astonished.

She hadn’t expected that Xiao Xiyue would find her breakthrough opportunity just a little over a month since she had descended the mountain.

She knew that the trial of the Supreme Forgetful Love Technique was not easy to overcome.

Especially since others who practiced this technique usually experienced the trial of love at the beginning, amidst the turmoil of the world, before they continued with their cultivation.
