Words : 1718 Updated : Sep 12th, 2025

On this day, Lu Changsheng received a letter.It was from Hong Yi, reporting that his sent agents had learned some news in Zhoushan Prefecture. A strange man had appeared at the Qu Family estate. Based on the investigation, there was a high likelihood that this man was Qu Changge. Someone had recognized Qu Changge by appearance at the time, and the fact that the man appeared inside the Qu Family estate and asked about what had happened with the Qu Family made it almost certain that this man was indeed Qu Changge. However, something was off, as Qu Changge had once been known for his refined, scholarly appearance, but now he seemed to have become sinister and demonic. His eyes were a deep red, like those of a monster. Hong Yi wrote in the letter that Qu Changge vanished after his appearance, leaving no further information. Hong Yi suspected that Qu Changge might have also started cultivating, but his path was that of the demonic, urging Lu Changsheng to be cautious. “Demonic path.” After reading the letter, Lu Changsheng narrowed his eyes slightly. As far as he knew, the Jiang Country’s cultivation world was dominated by the Heavenly Sword Sect, with several immortal sects, cultivation families, and immortal cities all aligned with the righteous path. There were no known demonic forces in the Jiang Country. Occasionally, there might be some rogue cultivators who had obtained demonic inheritances. Lu Changsheng did not expect his brother-in-law to have gone down the demonic path. “I wonder if my brother-in-law will come looking for Qingzhu Mountain.” Lu Changsheng pondered this. He was not particularly concerned about his brother-in-law finding his way to Qingzhu Mountain. After all, his conscience was clear, so he had nothing to fear. He had not only saved Qu Zhenzhen, but they also shared mutual affection. How could his brother-in-law cause him trouble? Even if Qu Changge did not know the whole truth and came to confront him, he would need the ability to find him first. In Lu Changsheng’s opinion, Qu Zhenzhen had an eighth-grade Spirit Root. Even if her brother also had a Spirit Root, it was unlikely to be particularly exceptional. Moreover, in Jiang Country, demonic cultivators were treated as outcasts, and no one would risk openly pursuing Lu Changsheng. “Sigh, it seems my brother-in-law is also a tragic figure,” he thought. “He pursued the path of cultivation, but followed the demonic path. He returned home only to find his family wiped out.” Lu Changsheng sighed and shook his head. He had a somewhat favorable impression of his brother-in-law, even though they had never met. Qu Zhenzhen had told him many stories about her childhood, and she often mentioned her brother. According to Qu Zhenzhen, her brother was always studying and had a serious demeanor. He loved to lecture her and discuss complex principles, but he was not entirely rigid. He cared deeply for his sister, often helping her out when she made mistakes and covering for her in front of their parents. “I won’t tell Zhenzhen about this for now, so as not to worry her.” “If, in the future, I have the ability and the chance to help my brother-in-law, I will consider doing so, provided he is still alive.” “But as for now, it’s not something I can do much about.” Lu Changsheng took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, deciding not to dwell too much on the matter. After all, he was only a low-level cultivator at the third stage of Qi Refining, simply trying to get by on Qingzhu Mountain. He didn’t have the capacity to assist his brother-in-law at the moment, so there was no need to worry about it. Shortly after, he replied to Hong Yi, telling him not to inquire about Qu Changge’s news anymore. Otherwise, getting involved with the demon cultivator will be a problem. … Half a month later. “Husband, I’ve completed the process of guiding qi into my body and have become a cultivator!” On this day, Qu Zhenzhen, wearing a golden hairpin and a pink and white dress, approached Lu Changsheng with joy and excitement. After more than a year at Qingzhu Mountain, the baby fat on her face had disappeared, and her youthful innocence had matured. Her figure had become more voluptuous. Her pure and lovely face now had a touch of charm and grace of a married woman and mother.

With Spirit Roots, Lu Changsheng naturally hoped that his wives would also embark on the path of cultivation and accompany him for a longer time. Even if they didn’t become a help in the future, at least cultivation would benefit their bodies in various ways. The reason why Qu Zhenzhen only broke through the first level of qi refinement now was because she had previously been pregnant, nursing her baby, and recovering her body, which delayed her cultivation. Otherwise, with the second-level Spirit Vain in Qingzhu Valley, even without cultivation resources, she would have broken through the first stage of Qi Refining long ago. Looking at his charming young wife, whose every expression was full of allure, Lu Changsheng embraced her and said, “To celebrate my dear Zhenzhen becoming a cultivator, let me reward you properly.” Even though she was already a mother, Qu Zhenzhen’s shy nature had not changed. Upon hearing this, her heart fluttered with embarrassment, her cheeks flushed crimson. Before she could say anything, she felt warm lips on hers, and then her body softened. Soon, she was almost clinging to Lu Changsheng. After a while, she reluctantly parted her lips. “Husband, let’s… let’s go back to the room…” “It’s alright, we’re in our own home, and there’s no one here.” Lu Changsheng chuckled lightly. Then, amidst Qu Zhenzhen’s stuttering and the rustling sound, the courtyard, in the midst of autumn, gained a hint of spring. In the following days, Lu Changsheng devoted most of his energy to Qu Zhenzhen. Now that Qu Zhenzhen had broken through the first stage of Qi Refining and had rested for half a year since the last childbirth, he naturally had to take good care of her and prepare for the second child. In the blink of an eye, it was the end of the month. At the end of each month, it was the day when the fourth elder taught talisman-making. On this day, after breakfast, Lu Changsheng went to the residence of the fourth elder. Since he had been there before, he didn’t need anyone to show him the way. Walking through the corridor, Lu Changsheng arrived at a quiet courtyard. The walls of the courtyard were surrounded by emerald green bamboo, and in the middle stood a small pavilion with five tables and chairs placed beside it. At this moment, there was a stunning figure standing tall beside the pavilion. Her face was beautiful, her eyes clear as water, wearing a simple and elegant white dress. Her long, lustrous black hair cascaded down her shoulders, framing her slender waist and round hips, contrasting with her white attire. Despite her simple white dress and embroidered shoes, her graceful figure and elegant temperament exuded a unique charm, giving off an ethereal and otherworldly aura. The gentle breeze brushed by, carrying with it strands of sunlight that fell upon the woman’s white dress, giving her an aura of sanctity, as if she were adorned with a layer of holy golden radiance, making her appear more sacred and noble. Seeing her standing there so gracefully, like a character stepped out of a painting, Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but show a hint of amazement in his eyes. He couldn’t help but wonder if it was because he had awakened memories, and the first “immortal” he saw in the cultivation world was Lu Miaoge, which led to him harboring a special sentiment towards her. Before, when he saw Lu Miaoge, due to the gap in their status and identity, Lu Changsheng had thoughts about her but didn’t feel much. Now, with the confidence given by the system and the elevation of the Lu Family’s status, Lu Miaoge in front of him was no longer so unattainable. As a result, when he saw Lu Miaoge, he couldn’t help but have some thoughts that he hadn’t had before, and he wanted to indulge in the idea of pressing this seemingly ethereal fairy down and enjoying her freely. “Sigh, it’s no wonder many people, once they have wealth and power, become morally corrupt.” Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but shake his head inwardly. He had only recently married his wife, Lu Miaoyun, and now he was having inappropriate thoughts about his wife’s cousin. “Miss Lu,” Lu Changsheng greeted Lu Miaoge without much thought. As the talisman master of the Lu Family, Lu Miaoge would often come to learn talisman making from the fourth elders on this day every month. Since the other Lu Family juniors who came to learn talisman-making were all apprentices, the fourth elders divided the teaching into two batches. In the morning, it was Lu Miaoge and Lu Changsheng, and in the afternoon, it was the other Lu Family juniors. “Lu Changsheng,” Lu Miaoge greeted Lu Changsheng with a faint smile when she saw him. Her smile was shallow, like a snow lotus on the Tianshan Mountains, just blooming and then retracting, returning to its otherworldly and elegant appearance. This made Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but think to himself that the two sisters were quite alike in this aspect. They both didn’t like to smile, but when they did, they were very attractive. He didn’t go up to talk to her or anything like that. Even though he had thoughts about Lu Miaoge in his heart, he couldn’t just go pursue her. One reason was that his identity and situation weren’t suitable for pursuing her, and another reason was that girls weren’t pursued; they were attracted. Lu Changsheng sat down at the nearby table, waiting for the fourth elder to come over.
