Words : 1470 Updated : Sep 10th, 2025

On that day, Lu Changsheng was chatting with his wives and concubines when a servant came to report to him.The servant said that there was someone outside who wanted to see him and handed him a token. When Lu Changsheng saw the token, he immediately knew that it was Hong Yi’s people. He returned to his study, took out a finely prepared box of talismans, and went out into the courtyard. It was impossible for Hong Yi’s people to enter Qingzhu Mountain casually, so they must be waiting outside. When Lu Changsheng arrived in front of Qingzhu Mountain, he immediately saw a luxurious carriage not far away. On the carriage was a flag with the three characters “Marquis Ru Yi”. Surrounding the carriage were a group of burly men dressed in sturdy black robes, armed with long knives and powerful crossbows. They were all riding strong steeds, each measuring over a meter in length and standing eight feet tall, with shiny black fur and agile limbs. Leading this group was the tall and imposing figure of Hong Yi, dressed in magnificent silk robes. Lu Changsheng had not expected Hong Yi to come on this trip in person, let alone with such a large entourage. From the imposing aura of these black-clad men, Lu Changsheng could tell that they were all martial arts experts. However, Lu Changsheng could understand this. This was their first transaction, so naturally, Hong Yi wanted to show his importance. Besides, this transaction was worth hundreds of Spirit Stones. For Marquis Ru Yi’s Mansion, such a large amount of Spirit Stones was probably not a small amount, so they couldn’t just let anyone bring it over. “Brother Lu, long time no see!” Hong Yi saw Lu Changsheng come out and immediately greeted him warmly and enthusiastically. He was wearing a purple-gold crown and a purple brocade robe, looking more graceful and dignified than before. “Brother Hong, I didn’t expect you to come personally this time.” Lu Changsheng also smiled and greeted him. “I didn’t have much to do, so I decided to come myself.” “And to be honest, this is the first time I’m dealing with such a big business, so I feel more comfortable coming myself.” “Otherwise, if something unexpected happened on the way here and back, I would have to face my father with my head down.” Hong Yi shook his head and smiled bitterly. Marquis Ru Yi’s residence had a certain foundation, but it wasn’t rich. Losing over a hundred Spirit Stones would definitely hurt. “Haha, Brother Hong is joking. Entrusting this matter to you shows the trust your father has in you.” With that, he took out a brocade box of talismans from his storage bag and handed it to Hong Yi. “Hong Yi, these are the talismans you requested. There are twenty fireball talismans, twenty water shield talismans, twenty banishing talismans, twenty concealing talismans, and twenty healing talismans. You can check them.” “As for the price, it’s twenty percent lower than the market price, as we agreed before. So it’s a total of one hundred and twelve Spirit Stones. You can just give me one hundred and ten.” Lu Changsheng said. There were a total of one hundred talismans in the box. According to the market price, it would be one hundred and forty spirit stones. However, Lu Changsheng and Hong Yi had previously agreed to offer a twenty percent discount off the market price. After all, with a stable long-term supply channel and active delivery, offering a twenty percent discount wasn’t too much. Besides, Lu Changsheng now had a lot of talismans with him. He was willing to sell them at a lower price as long as he could do so safely and steadily. After all, the cost of making talismans is very low. Most of the materials were leftovers from helping the Lu Family make talismans, and only a small portion of the materials were bought for himself. Hong Yi took the brocade box, opened it, and saw five stacks of talismans inside, a hint of joy appearing in his eyes. As long as he brought back this batch of talismans, his position in Marquis Ru Yi’s mansion would be completely stabilized. If Lu Changsheng could eventually provide mid-level talismans on a consistent basis, then the position of the eldest son would not be so far away. “Alright, of course I trust Brother Lu.” Hong Yi didn’t inspect it closely, he just glanced at it a few times and then closed the brocade box again. Next, he took out one hundred and twelve Spirit Stones from the bag and handed them to Lu Changsheng. “Thank you, Brother Hong.” Lu Changsheng didn’t mind the two extra spirit stones and accepted them with great pleasure. “Brother Lu is too polite, I should be the one to thank you.” “I have prepared a gift for Brother Lu.” Hong Yi smiled and waved his hand, then looked at the carriage and clapped his hands. “A gift?” Lu Changsheng was surprised. Next to the carriage, a stocky figure that was vaguely recognizable as a woman pulled open the carriage curtain. Then, a crisp ringing sounded from the carriage. A red haired woman with a pair of beautiful emerald eyes, a prominent nose, snow-white and moist skin, and exuding exotic charm leaned out of the carriage. The woman covered her hair and face with a red veil, and wore a red dress that exposed her navel, showing off her beautiful swan-like neck, exquisite collarbones, and flat stomach. With a graceful posture, she stepped down from the carriage, her slender legs moving under the hem of her dress. Her thighs were plump and strong, her calves long and powerful, barefoot with ten jade-like toes painted with crimson flower sap that shone against her pale skin. On her delicate and slender ankles, she wore a pair of golden anklets with two small bells hanging from them, making a ‘ding-dong’ sound. After the woman with the exotic charm got out of the carriage, she saluted Lu Changsheng gracefully. With her charming demeanor, she resembled an enchanting fox. Shortly after, another crisp bell rang inside the carriage. A woman who bore a striking resemblance to the redhead, with a similarly high nose and deep eyes that exuded exotic charm, stepped out of the carriage. Unlike the redhead, this woman’s hair, eyes, and pupils were all deep ocean blue. Compared to the alluring beauty of the redheaded woman, her facial expression was somewhat distant, giving off a cold yet seductive aura. The two women had very similar facial features. However, their pupils, hair color, dress, and temperament were completely different, and standing next to each other, they exuded a stunningly different allure. Next, two women with long legs and exotic features, each with their own unique style, approached Lu Changsheng. Their steps were light and graceful, their skin was pale and delicate, their movements were elegant, and even though their bare feet were covered in rouge, they did not leave a speck of dust on the ground. Lu Changsheng could tell at a glance that the two women were skilled in martial arts. This was evident from their ability to channel their internal energy into their feet, allowing them to avoid getting dirty. “Jiu’er pays her respects to the master.” Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ NʘvᴇlFirᴇ.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality. “Shui’er pays her respects to the master.” The two women stood in front of Lu Changsheng and bowed gracefully. One had a voice like a soft whisper, full of temptation. The other had a voice as cold as ice, yet it stirred desire in the heart. Upon hearing the two women address him as Master, Lu Changsheng raised his eyebrows slightly. Just now, when he saw the two women get off the carriage, he had a vague idea of what the gift might be. But at this moment, he confirmed that the gift Hong Yi mentioned was indeed the two women in front of him. He couldn’t help but admit that the two women were indeed beautiful and alluring, capable of arousing people’s desires. Especially since the two of them had similar appearances, but completely different temperaments and charms, which added a touch of astonishment at first glance. Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but think of the Lu Family sisters he saw at Zhuxin Lake before. They also had similar facial features, but completely different personalities and temperaments. But the problem is… Who would think of giving girls as a gift? Even though in this world, such things are considered normal. But when faced with such a situation, Lu Changsheng still felt strange and awkward.
