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

The moonlight was like frost, and a gentle breeze blew softly.

At the top of Spirit Pond Mountain, there was a serene tranquility.

Only the pine trees not far away swayed gently, making a rustling sound.

Yet this sound carried a certain solitude and desolation.

No one knew how much time had passed.

Nangong Mili slowly opened her eyes.

Previously, when facing Lu Changsheng, her heart pounded uncontrollably.

Love, murderous intent, tenderness, anger, and bitterness surged, making it impossible for her to face Lu Changsheng directly.

Her whole being seemed overwhelmed by a flood, leaving her struggling to free herself.

Now, as Lu Changsheng had departed, her heart gradually calmed down. Explore hidden tales at empire

"Xiao Chan, tell me, what's going on between you and that dog... Lu Changsheng?"

Nangong Mili looked at her disciple with a complex expression and spoke.

"Master..."

Meng Xiaochan, upon hearing her master's words, turned pale.

She knew her master had become aware of the Lockheart Gu matter.

Her teeth bit tightly on her lower lip, almost to the point of drawing blood, her delicate frame trembling, stuttering without speaking.

"Sigh!"

Nangong Mili quietly watched her disciple.

Seeing Meng Xiaochan like this, she let out a deep sigh.

Her heart was certain there was something wrong with Lu Changsheng.

Her love for Lu Changsheng must have been manipulated by some means.

And Meng Xiaochan must know something about it.

But she had been influenced by Lu Changsheng even more so.

Otherwise, she would not show such a demeanor.

"Get some rest."

Nangong Mili glanced at her disciple, remained silent, and closed her eyes again.

Meng Xiaochan saw a fleeting disappointment in her master's eyes.

It was like a knife twisted in her heart; she bit down on her lips firmly enough to draw fresh blood.

Her heart quivered as she faced a choice between her master and Lu Changsheng.

Finally, she spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, her complexion pale as paper, and uttered a single sentence.

"Master, it's the Lockheart Gu..."

...

In the night sky, a Spirit Boat streaked under the moonlight.

On the boat stood a man and a woman.

The man had a handsome face and a tall figure, dressed in a long robe of green, his aura detached from the mundane world.\\

Like an orchid or a dignified mountain, he inspired awe in those who saw him.

The woman was beautiful, with her hair coiffed up, wearing a light blue dress, graceful and dignified.

Her face was pale and devoid of color, making her appear voluptuous and frail.

But her beautiful eyes were as clear as autumn water, lucid and spirited, commanding respect from anyone who saw her.

"My lord..."

Ling Zixiao noticed that Lu Changsheng was somewhat troubled and gently took his hand.

Although she did not know the situation between Lu Changsheng and Nangong Mili,

she knew that Lu Changsheng was bothered by this matter.

"Could it be that my lord has fallen for Nangong Mili?"

Ling Zixiao guessed in her heart.

Aside from that reason, she really couldn't figure out why Lu Changsheng had such a change of attitude towards Nangong Mili.

But falling for Nangong Mili would be normal.

After all, her beauty and charm were enough to move even her, another woman, to fondness and adoration.

Every time Lu Changsheng was intimate with Nangong Mili, she couldn't help but marvel at how a woman as beautiful as Nangong Mili could exist in this world.

It was just that she was too enchanting and domineering, which made her somewhat displeased.

"I'm fine."

Lu Changsheng held Ling Zixiao's hand and gave a slight smile.

He was not saddened by matters concerning Nangong Mili,

but the separation had made him a bit sentimental.

He felt his own power was still too weak.

One woman was carrying his child, the other had deep feelings for him,

yet at that moment, facing pursuit and assassination from the Heavenly Sword Sect, he could only leave it up to fate.

"Alright."

Ling Zixiao, seeing that Lu Changsheng didn't speak of his troubles, did not ask further and simply responded softly.

Then, holding his hand, they stood side by side on the Spirit Boat.

...

A major event recently occurred in the Qingyun Region.

Xiahou Yunie transformed into a Demon Cultivator and wreaked havoc everywhere.

He had destroyed the Feng Family Fortress overnight.

This fortress was home to a Foundation Establishment Clan.

The clan had three Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators.

Although one Foundation Establishment Ancestor had fallen during the previous campaign against the Xiahou Clan,

there were still two Foundation Establishment Ancestors in the clan.

The strength and heritage of their family were extraordinary.

But such a Foundation Establishment Clan was annihilated overnight by a Demon Cultivator.

This news instantly caused widespread panic across the entire Qingyun Region.

Especially the families that had participated in the Qingyun Sect's campaign against the Xiahou Clan,

they all feared retaliatory strikes against their own clans by Xiahou Yunie, now a Demon Cultivator.

In these times, all families and marketplaces were on high alert, conducting rigorous patrols.

After all, if the Feng Family Fortress could be destroyed overnight, it surely indicated an issue within the family itself.

Otherwise, not even a False Core powerhouse could breach and obliterate a cultivation family in one night.

In Qingzhu Valley, the Lu Family,

"Miaoge, has there been any news from Changsheng?"

Lu Yuanding inquired of his daughter Lu Miaoge.

Due to the affair with Lu Miao Feng some time ago, Lu Miaoge had not returned to the Red Leaf Valley Market and had stayed at the family stronghold.

Not only was the family anxious over the long absence of Lu Changsheng, but the house's backyard also needed Lu Miaoge to calm the people's spirits.

"No."

Lu Miaoge, hearing this, pursed her lips and shook her head gently, feeling somewhat downhearted.

Lu Changsheng had been away for a year and three months now.

His prolonged absence naturally caused her worry.

Moreover, with the issue of Xiahou Monie, the whole Qingyun Region was feeling uneasy.

And Lu Changsheng was usually quite prompt.

If he said a year, it was usually a year.

But now, it had been over a year, and he had yet to return, a fact that made her uneasy.
