She was very assured of her husband’s precious daughter.
As a Talisman Cultivator, possessing nurous Third Rank Talismans, and with the treasures given by her husband, it can be said that unless encountering a Third Rank Demon King or a Nascent Soul Immortal, no one is her match.
Even if a False Core Immortal were to et Lu Wangshu, in a direct confrontation, they would likely suffer defeat.
“Aunt, don’t worry.”
Lu Wangshu replied playfully, then left the Immortal City with Xiao He through the passage of the City Lord Mansion.
“Sister, where are we going?”
Lu Linghe looked at the slowly spreading sea, the Wind-Fire Wheels appeared under her feet, holding the Black Dragon Spear, her little face excitedly asked.
“There’s no hurry in adventures, it’s all about fate.”
Lu Wangshu said leisurely, releasing her Cold Blue Dark Turtle.
“Stupid turtle, if you can’t sense a great opportunity, I’ll stew you for Xiao He to eat!”
She said fiercely to the Cold Blue Dark Turtle.
Then she handed a fishing rod to Lu Linghe, and the sisters sat cross-legged on the Cold Blue Dark Turtle, quietly fishing, drifting aimlessly.
...
Bi Lake Mountain.
Now that the Lu Family Ancestor Lu Changsheng had broken through to Core Formation and ford a Dao Companion bond with Xi Yue of Qingyun Sect, the Lu Family of Bi Lake Mountain was flourishing, thriving like never before.
Almost every now and then, Loose Cultivators would co to pay respects at Bi Lake Mountain, wishing to join the Lu Family, serve as Honored Guests, or even sell themselves into servitude, becoming apprentices.
In the guest reception hall, Lu Qingxuan finished eting with a visiting Foundation Establishnt Cultivator and gently rubbed his brow.
Although their family is a Core Formation Noble Family,
when a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator cos to visit, he still sees them personally.
On one hand, it shows importance.
On the other hand, the family’s growing stature attracts other forces to plant spies within.
Yet, he had awakened the Taiyi Divine Soul, his Divine Sense reaching the level of Core Formation, and mastered the Observation Skill, allowing him to discern the situation and the truth of words.
Therefore, over the past year, he had uncovered many people with ulterior motives and gathered much information from them.
“Young master.”
After leaving the hall, the maid Xiao Yu called out, reminding him of the day’s agenda.
This maid was brought back from Qingyun Market, or rather, picked up by his sister Lu Qingqi.
The latter originally wanted to join Qingyun Sect, but after bringing her back, Lu Qingxuan taught her cultivation thods and gave her a regular stipend.
In these four years of getting along, Xiao Yu ultimately chose to continue serving as Lu Qingxuan’s maid, now becoming a trusted aide by his side.
“Alright.”
Lu Qingxuan nodded, then, carrying a Storage Bag, visited each courtyard to deliver this month’s award resources.
Although such tasks could be delegated to others,
in his view, delivering these award resources personally has a bit of an encouraging effect.
He could also take this opportunity to get to know the brothers, sisters, and younger generation in the family better, enhancing family recognition.
After finishing his work, he took the maid Xiao Yu to the al Hall.
“Brother!”
Just then, a beautifully dressed woman in a black skirt hurried over, calling out to Lu Qingxuan. It was Lu Miaohuan’s daughter, Lu Qingqi.
“Sister, is there sothing you need?”
Lu Qingxuan looked at this sister, who was half a year older than him, and smiled.
“I have sothing to tell you.”
Lu Qingqi, a bit forthright by nature, directly pulled Lu Qingxuan aside and whispered: “On my recent trip to Jinxia Valley, I inadvertently heard that so Lu Family disciples were associating with unknown Loose Cultivators, engaging in oppressive conduct.”
“I then caught a few people for questioning, they said that over the past year, soone has been inviting them to gatherings, exploring ruins, indulging in drinks, gambling...”
Though she doesn’t manage family affairs, after reaching Foundation Establishnt half a year ago, she was also called by her brother Lu Qingxuan to oversee Jinxia Valley.
At Jinxia Valley, unable to hold back her nature, she secretly went out to play, and upon arriving at the Jin Family Marketplace, she unintentionally heard so news.
Lu Qingxuan’s gentle and elegant face turned cold.
As the Family Head, he was already aware of such matters.
Since his father broke through to Core Formation and beca a Dao Companion with Aunt Xi Yue, their family had beco the Crownless King in the vicinity.
In such circumstances, no other family forces dared to offend them.
Even an ordinary Lu Family disciple would be treated with deference outside.
Apart from so forces attempting to plant spies in Bi Lake Mountain, they would naturally also send people to connect with Lu Family disciples, inserting spies through them.
Even if he was aware of such matters, he couldn’t eradicate them, only prevent them to the best of his ability.
Now, hearing his sister’s words, he imdiately realized that what he feared had indeed occurred.
“Do you know who they are?”
Lu Qingxuan took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, and asked his sister.
“I don’t know the specifics, after hearing about this, I caught a few for questioning, and ca back to tell you. Didn’t you always tell you’re most afraid of such situations?”
Although Lu Qingqi was forthright, she had a very good relationship with this brother and was extrely supportive of his role as Family Head.
“Sister, do you have anything to do? If not, shall we go to Jinxia Valley?”
Lu Qingxuan thought for a mont and said.
“I haven’t eaten since I ca back.”
Lu Qingqi imdiately replied.
Ever since Bi Lake Mountain acquired the Five Qi Cauldron, the food quality had greatly improved. She even sneaked out from Jinxia Valley because she found the Fasting Pill too bland.
“Thank you for your hard work, sister.”
Lu Qingxuan shook his head helplessly and went to the al Hall with his sister.
After the siblings had eaten their fill, Lu Qingxuan thought for a bit, then went to Bamboo Mist Courtyard to pay respects to Aunt Lu Miaoyun.
He briefly explained the situation and borrowed the Thousand Faces Puppet Fox.
This Third Rank Puppet was currently kept at Bi Lake Mountain for ergencies.
