Red Leaf Valley Market.
Due to the buzz created by the Lu Family of Blue Lake Mountain, the final highlight of this year’s auction is the Foundation Establishnt Elixir, and with continuous hype, the traffic in Red Leaf Valley Market has surged in recent months, creating extraordinary excitent.
Even many loose cultivators who know they have no chance at the Foundation Establishnt Pill have rushed over to join in the excitent, hoping to stumble upon an opportunity or good fortune.
"Yet another Foundation Establishnt Ancestor, tsk tsk tsk, this auction is really lively."
"I’ve counted, and today alone there have already been seven Foundation Building Great Cultivators who have arrived."
"That spirit boat, seems like it’s from Purple Cloud Ridge, isn’t it? Didn’t soone from Purple Cloud Ridge just break through to Foundation Establishnt recently? Why would they also attend this auction?"
"As for Foundation Establishnt Elixirs, who would think they have too many?"
"This auction might require the Lu Family Ancestor Lu Changsheng and his Dao companion Lu Miaoge to preside together, otherwise, it would be impossible to maintain order..."
Outside the market, streaks of spiritual light flew by, accompanied by the landing of spirit boats, magic artifacts, and birds.
Many wearing the law enforcent robes of Red Leaf Valley Market from Blue Lake Mountain, Qingzhu Mountain, and Hundred Birds Lake were on patrol, maintaining order.
If any Foundation Building Great Cultivator landed, Lu Muping from the nearby pavilion would co out to greet them actively and invite them into the market.
After all, this auction was too exciting and unprecedented.
Faced with this situation, the three families had no choice but to be cautious.
If this auction were to be ruined and unforeseen events occurred, not only would Red Leaf Valley Market’s reputation plumt, but the three families would also be affected.
Just then, a dazzling blue spirit boat descended from the sky.
Leading them was a woman with an exquisite figure, with her raven hair in a high bun, a clear and beautiful countenance like snow, wearing a plain white dress, and a tall and graceful physique.
"The Lady of the Lu Family from Blue Lake Mountain, Lu Miaoge!"
"The Lu Family Ancestor from Qingzhu Mountain, Lu Yuanzhong!"
"Hmm, why is the Lu Family Ancestor Lu Changsheng from Blue Lake Mountain not seen?"
As soon as a cultivator saw the figures on the spirit boat, they imdiately exclaid, causing a little commotion.
After all, Lu Miaoge is now also a well-known Foundation Establishnt Cultivator, recognized by many.
As for Li Xingruo, not many knew her.
"Greetings to the Ancestor!"
"I have seen the Lady!"
"Auntie!"
Several patrolling disciples imdiately ca forward to greet them upon seeing this.
These days, the patrol in Red Leaf Valley Market has been very strict, both inside and out, with children from the three families visible everywhere.
"Hmm."
Lu Miaoge gently nodded in response, then turned to inquire from a 27 or 28-year-old woman, "Qingyan, where’s Wangshu?"
"Auntie, Sister Wangshu has been inside the market these days," replied Lu Qingyan, a beautiful woman in silver armor, with an unadorned face, looking spirited and valiant.
"Has anything happened in the market these days?" asked Lu Miaoge, continuing to show concern. f
"Occasionally a few petty thieves, but all have been dealt with," Lu Qingyan spoke with efficient grace.
Although Red Leaf Valley Market is protected by Foundation Establishnt cultivators, and even the Nine Netherhound is brought over, there are still so bold robber cultivators who take risks and commit robbery in the vicinity.
In the past few months, they have responded to several reports and dealt with nurous robber cultivator incidents.
"Uncle, Sixth Uncle, Aunt, Qing Xuan, Qing Xi."
At this mont, Lu Munian from the small pavilion greeted Lu Miaoge and the others as he saw them approaching.
"Muping."
Lu Yuanzhong and Lu Miaoge briefly asked a few questions before leading the group into the market.
"Hmm? Why is it only Lu Miaoge, where’s Lu Changsheng?"
"At such a ti, Lu Changsheng isn’t here?"
"Could it be that Lu Changsheng has disguised himself, deliberately concealing himself to lure us into action?"
"It’s also possible that Lu Changsheng is worried about accidents happening on White Tiger Mountain or Monkey Mountain, so he’s causing a diversion and is currently on White Tiger Mountain," speculated so cultivators watching Lu Miaoge and others as their figures disappeared and then quietly relayed the ssage out.
....
"What a lively scene."
Under the support of Lu Miaoge and Lu Qingxuan, Lu Yuanding looked at the bustling market street, his aged face slightly flushed with excitent. This was a scene he had never dared to imagine.
"Grandfather, in the future, Red Leaf Valley Market will beco even more prosperous and lively with our family, becoming a grand marketplace," Lu Qingxuan earnestly said, feeling Grandpa’s arm gripped his own tight, his youthful handso face full of seriousness.
"Good, Grandfather believes that day will co," Lu Yuanding reassured, patting his grandson’s hand, his face full of contentnt.
As they spoke, they arrived at Red Leaf Peak.
Besides several cave mansions rented out at the foot of the peak, the rest were for the families’ own use.
Standing on the mountain peak, Lu Yuanding looked down at the bustling scene of the marketplace, as if he wanted to etch this image forever in his heart.
Lu Qingxuan accompanied his grandfather at his side.
However, Lu Yuanding’s energy was weak, and after watching for a while, he had to return to his room to rest.
...
Inside a small courtyard.
Lu Wangshu was chatting with her mother, Xiao Xi Yue.
Hearing the noise outside, she imdiately got up to check.
"Mother, Aunt Xingruo, you’re here, Qing Xuan, Qi’er."
Upon seeing Lu Miaoge and the others, Lu Wangshu called out.
Having been raised by Lu Miaoge since she was a child, she was quite close to her and usually called her "Mother."
"Wangshu, you’ve been working hard these days," said Lu Miaoge gently to the bright and flawless girl before her.
"It hasn’t been too bad, eh, where’s my dad?" Lu Wangshu looked up, searching for her father Lu Changsheng’s figure.
After all, having worked so hard these days, her father must properly reward his precious daughter.
"Your dad has so matters at ho and can’t get away, so he hasn’t co," Lu Miaoge explained as she stroked her smooth, soft hair, her deanor gentle as water.
