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

Chapter 197: Chapter 109: Trouble is Brewing, Heart Demon!_4
 

Lu Yuanding spoke with a gentle tone.

“Thank you, Family Head, but I have already made arrangements for the child’s future, which is to settle him in our ancestral home in Ruyi Prefecture.”

“I had a friend procure some farmland and houses there beforehand.”

Lu Changsheng bowed slightly in acknowledgement.

He could clearly discern from Lu Yuanding’s words that it was hoped he would settle the child within the Lu Family.

“Since you have already made arrangements, that’s naturally for the best.”

“Once you’ve decided on a time, just inform me, and if you encounter any issues in the secular world, feel free to discuss them with me.”

Hearing that Lu Changsheng had made arrangements, Lu Yuanding said no more.

His tone remained gentle and unchanged.

After all, this world placed great importance on familial bloodlines.

While Lu Changsheng’s heart had become intertwined with the Lu Family, he saw it as perfectly natural to want to establish his own bloodline in the secular world.

“You needn’t worry too much about the current situation of the Lu Family, Yuan Shan made not insignificant gains in the Purple Shadow Secret Realm, giving us hope to overcome this difficult period.”

Seemingly aware of the concerns in Lu Changsheng’s heart, Lu Yuanding revealed some news.

“Significant gains in the Purple Shadow Secret Realm? Getting through a difficult period?”

Lu Changsheng’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing this.

Although he didn’t know whether what Lu Yuanding said was true or false, at this moment, Lu Changsheng could not possibly show lack of response.

He immediately bowed deeply, expressing his attitude, “Family Head, I have long considered Qingzhu Mountain as my own home. This time, sending the child to the secular world is partly because he is not so young anymore, and also to leave bloodlines in the world, wishing to share life and death with the family!”

Lu Changsheng said this with a look of firm conviction.

Seeing Lu Changsheng’s determined expression, Lu Yuanding also showed a relieved and moved expression.

He patted Lu Changsheng’s shoulder and said, “Haha, it’s the thought that counts.”

“However, our Lu Family will never let our people, our own, make sacrifices in vain, so you don’t have to worry too much.”

Lu Yuanding said so.

“Yes, Family Head!”

Lu Changsheng nodded in agreement.

He then continued, “By the way, Family Head, I have a good friend named Li Feiyu.”

“A few years ago I troubled the Fourth Elder to have him released from his position as a son-in-law to become a free man, but he still remains with the Lu Family.”

“This time, I would like for him to return to the secular world with me to help look after the child.”

“So, I would like to request the Family Head’s permission to allow him to take his wives, concubines, and children back to the secular world with him.”

Lu Changsheng spoke again.

“No problem, you can go directly to Uncle Fu and have him arrange it.”

Lu Yuanding, upon hearing this, agreed without hesitation.

Because of Lu Changsheng, he had a recollection of the man named Li Feiyu.

But his understanding wasn’t clear.

Since Lu Changsheng had made the request, it was of no consequence to grant this favor.

“Thank you, Family Head!”

Lu Changsheng bowed deeply in gratitude.

Then, Lu Changsheng took his leave from Lu Yuanding.

That night.

Afterward

“Lan Shu, Zi’er, Qing’er, I’m planning to send Ping’an, Wuyu, and Wuyou to the secular world in three days.”

“They are still young and in need of care, so you will come with them to provide it.”

Lu Changsheng said to the three women.

He did not mention anything about the crisis facing the Lu Family.

Sending the children to the secular world now and having his wives look after them was the most legitimate reason.

“Alright, I’ll follow my husband’s decision.”

“Whatever you arrange, husband.”

The three women nestled close to Lu Changsheng and replied in soft voices.

“Don’t worry, I will visit you whenever I can.”

Lu Changsheng caressed the three women, speaking gently.

He still had quite a lot of affection for his first three wives.

Great Dream Immortal City.

“Meng fellow daoist, before we begin alchemy, I must clarify that since Foundation Establishment Elixir materials are hard to come by, aside from the Second Rank alchemists of the great Immortal Sects, other alchemists are not very proficient in the making of the Foundation Establishment Elixir.”

“Under normal conditions, I can produce two elixirs. If luck is against me, there might be only one, and only when luck is particularly favorable can three be produced.”

“Hence, if you accept this outcome, I can begin the alchemy process for you.”

An old man with hair as white as a crane’s feathers and a complexion as rosy and youthful as a baby slowly spoke to a young girl in a purple dress.

“Of course, please rest assured, Chen Alchemist, no matter the outcome, this young lady understands and the agreed payment will not be shortchanged,”

Meng Xiaochan smiled as she handed over a Storage Bag.

Although Chen Ping was an old hand at alchemy,

he was one of the few who could reliably produce the Foundation Building Elixir.

Moreover, it was not easy for a Loose Cultivator to find someone to make the Foundation Building Elixir for them.

The alchemist Chen Ping before her was someone she had managed to ask for a favor through various connections and at a considerable cost.

“Very well, since Meng fellow daoist has no objections, then I shall commence alchemy.”

“In the next few days, you may wait outside the Alchemy Hall or return after seven days.”

Chen Ping nodded slightly, took a glance at the Storage Bag to ensure the materials were complete, and then, accompanied by two boys who fanned the flames, entered the Alchemy Hall.

Meng Xiaochan did not depart but waited outside the hall for the outcome.

At this moment, her mind drifted.

Wondering if Chen Alchemist managed to produce only one Foundation Establishment Elixir, how she should plan.

Whether she should use it herself or… give it to him.

“Huhuhu, this Lockheart Gu is too overbearing. Once I achieve Foundation Establishment, I must kill him.

Otherwise, he will become my Heart Demon!”

In the next moment, Meng Xiaochan formed a Spiritual Art with her hands, pressing it on her forehead, taking deep breaths.

She was acutely aware that the influence of the Lockheart Gu on her was getting more severe.

She would often involuntarily think of Lu Changsheng.

Sometimes, she even dreamed of him at night.

“If it weren’t for the fact that I know I’m afflicted with the Lockheart Gu and have the Pure Heart Technique, any other person would likely be unable to withstand the effects of the Lockheart Gu.”

“That’s why I must kill him and take back the Lockheart Gu!”

Meng Xiaochan’s eyes were downcast as she muttered to herself.
