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

Chapter 297: Chapter 140: Yun Wanshang: How Could It Be Him?_2
“Xi Yue.”

Lu Changsheng stepped forward, calling out to Xiao Xiyue.

When they had parted last, Xiao Xiyue had suggested they address each other as fellow daoists, creating a sense of estrangement.

Therefore, it was only natural that their form of address had changed.

“Changsheng.”

Upon seeing Lu Changsheng, Xiao Xiyue, with her cold, proud features, immediately revealed a gentle look in her calm and indifferent beautiful eyes, and the corners of her mouth also curled up.

“Is this also your daughter?”

Xiao Xiyue, seeing the baby bottle in the arms of Lu Changsheng who was holding Lu Qingzhu, asked.

She knew that Lu Changsheng had many wives and children.

But she hadn’t expected that Lu Changsheng would come to the marketplace while also holding a child.

It left her really not knowing what to say.

She could only say that Lu Changsheng truly liked children.

“Yes, this is my daughter Lu Qingzhu.”

“Little Zhu’er, this is your Auntie Xi Yue.”

Lu Changsheng introduced them to each other with a candid expression.

“Hee-hee, Auntie.”

The little girl, clutching her baby bottle, paused, then spoke in a babyish voice.

In Qingzhu Mountain, with so many lady mothers, she had learned to call out a bit.

But her pronunciation was still not clear.

“Ah, what a cutie.”

Xiao Xiyue looked at the little girl drinking her milk and showed a faint smile on her face.

One reason was that the child was indeed adorable.

The other was love for the house and its crow.

Straight away, the two of them walked into the Red Leaf Valley marketplace, laughing and talking.

However, as the two chatted,

“Is it him!?”

A hidden figure, camouflaged in the void, upon seeing Lu Changsheng, revealed expressions of shock, astonishment, embarrassment, anger, and disbelief in her dreamlike beautiful eyes.

It was like when Duan Yu learned that the person he loved, unexpectedly, was his own half-sister from the same father but different mothers.

But in the end, he was not the child of his biological father, instead born from his mother’s secret affair.

“Xi Yue’s destined lover in her emotional tribulation, how could it be him!?”

Yun Wanshang stood quietly in mid-air, wearing a colorful dress, her expression incredibly shocked, her feelings indescribably complex.

Her heart felt as if a bottle of mixed emotions had been overturned.

After Xiao Xiyue had left, she had been somewhat worried about her.

She also wanted to see for herself the person her pupil had chosen for her emotional tribulation.

After all, this tribulation could significantly influence her disciple’s future.

As a teacher, she naturally had to take a good care of her.

Therefore, she had followed Xiao Xiyue all the way here, ready to keep an eye on things.

But she had never imagined that her pupil’s lover would turn out to be the Qi Refinement cultivator with whom she had had a one-night stand.

This left her brain in chaos, overwhelmed with shock, astonishment, embarrassment, anger, and even murderous thoughts, stunned to the core.

A moment later,

“Truly, fate makes fools of us all.”

Yun Wanshang watched the receding figures, sighed helplessly and bitterly, a wry smile on her face.

Under the surge of emotions just now, she had even thought of slaying Lu Changsheng with a single sword stroke.

But recalling the past incident, she couldn’t really blame Lu Changsheng.

The cause lay with her.

Moreover, she could not possibly do such a thing.

Lu Changsheng was merely together with Xiao Xiyue, what reason did she have to kill him for that?

Furthermore, judging by Xiao Xiyue’s demeanor and attitude towards Lu Changsheng, it was clear that she had developed feelings.

Love is born unknowingly.

Once the emotional tribulation was triggered, the rest was up to Xiao Xiyue herself to overcome.

If she, in a fit of rage, were to kill Lu Changsheng, it would be like severing her own pupil’s future.

“Sigh.”

Yun Wanshang sighed deeply once again.

Her emotions were complicated beyond words.

She had thought that if Lu Changsheng were promising enough to reach the Foundation Establishment within twenty to thirty years, she might give him a chance.

To bring him to the Qingyun Sect for cultivation.

Forming a True Elixir would naturally be difficult, hopeless even.

But with her help and nurture, forming a False Core could be feasible.

In such a case, the man would be worthy of being her partner.

Later, by leveraging the Spirit-nurturing Energy she left within Lu Changsheng, a dual cultivation between them was not outside the realm of advancement.

But now, upon seeing that Lu Changsheng had become Xiao Xiyue’s destined lover in her emotional tribulation, she could only abandon such thoughts and plans.

Even if Xiao Xiyue were to cultivate the Supreme Forgetful Love Technique and forget this romance after passing her emotional tribulation, as a teacher, she could no longer entertain such notions.

Otherwise, what would be the propriety in sharing a husband between master and pupil!

She, Yun Wanshang, being a Nascent Soul Immortal, must she not care for her own dignity?

“But looking at him just now, with his child, has he given up on cultivation?”

Yun Wanshang thought of how Lu Changsheng had been holding a child and her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

If cultivators could preserve their essential purity, not breaking their primordial yin and yang, it would provide some aid in their early cultivation.

This is why most young cultivators would not consider marriage.

“He is but an Eighth Grade Spiritual Root; even if he had an opportunity back then and had a breakthrough in cultivation level with me, the possibility for him to reach Foundation Establishment is extremely slim.”

“Moreover, Xi Yue visited Qingzhu Mountain some time ago, and I recall that Qingzhu Mountain is a Foundation Establishment cultivator family; if this child belongs to that family, with mediocre talent, indeed he can only marry and live out a peaceful life.”

Yun Wanshang muttered to herself.

Seeing that Lu Changsheng already had a wife and child, she didn’t know why, but she felt a pang of disappointment, displeasure.

“Hmph, already married with children yet still so close with Xi Yue!”

Yun Wanshang’s face showed a hint of coldness again.

“No, that’s not right, Xi Yue said that she managed to escape from Robber Cultivators thanks to him.”

“Moreover, Xi Yue asked me to refine the Golden Crow Elixir for his Foundation Establishment preparations, which means… his cultivation level has already reached Qi Refinement Perfection.”

The next moment, Yun Wanshang suddenly looked up, realizing another incongruity.

Since Lu Changsheng had her gift of the Androgynous Jade…
