"Dad, you’re back."
"Dad, you’re finally back!"
Lu Ping’an and Lu Wangshu had pletely different expressions and tones when they saw their father.
The former had a calm demeanor with a slight smile, politely bowing with hands clasped.
His tall, robust build was profound like a deep abyss, exuding a powerful Qi Mechanism.
The latter was less formal, shouting with a mix of joy and reprimand, her rosy lips slightly pursed, and her expression warm and indescribably radiant.
"Hmm."
Lu Changsheng found his daughter’s eager gaze amusing, knowing she was impatient about the Core Formation matter.
He looked at his son, Lu Ping’an, and asked with concern, "Ping’an, how is Little Qin doing now?"
Lu Ping’an’s stern face instantly brightened into a dazzling smile at these words, and he replied, "Dad, Yiyi is due in about two months."
Though he didn’t have a strong attachment to having children.
Yet ever since Qin Yi was pregnant, the thought of soon being a father filled him with an indescribable joy, a deep-seated happiness.
"Then I’ll have to postpone my closed-door cultivation, or I won’t make it to the full month celebration of my nephew."
Lu Wangshu playfully teased.
She had a very close relationship with Lu Ping’an and Qin Yi, and already knew roughly when the nephew would be born.
"Ha ha."
Watching his son’s joyous expression filled Lu Changsheng with emotion, recalling when his wife Lu Lanshu was pregnant with Lu Ping’an.
Though back then as a son-in-law, he and Lu Lanshu didn’t have a foundation of affection.
Upon hearing of her pregnancy, he felt unprecedented excitement and happiness nonetheless.
Especially when his son Lu Ping’an cried at birth, holding him in his arms brought profound joy.
Unknowingly, a hundred and twenty-six years have passed.
The once rosy, wrinkled infant held and lifted by him has grown into a person revered as a Nascent Soul Immortal, about to have his own child.
This is family, legacy!
Only the wife Lu Lanshu, lacking a Spiritual Root, had long passed, unable to witness this.
"I obtained a [Corpse King Pearl] outside, it will benefit your cultivation, keep it well."
Lu Changsheng tossed the Corpse King Pearl to his son, then threw another Storage Bag after, "Inside are some cultivation resources, sufficient for your needs."
"There are also several pieces of Spiritual Medicine that will benefit the child, you can give them to Little Qin."
Lu Ping’an, always stationed at home, had relatively limited cultivation resources.
Having gained a bounty this time, Lu Changsheng naturally wouldn’t hold back.
"Dad, my resources are still sufficient."
Lu Ping’an quickly responded, indicating that the resources Lu Changsheng had given him before leaving were still abundant, many remained unused.
"Just take them, don’t talk so much."
Lu Changsheng waved his hand.
He was the type to give generously when conditions allowed.
Saving the hassle of being occupied outside and neglecting these matters.
"Big brother, why be modest with dad."
Lu Wangshu smiled, her eyes crescent-shaped.
She was never modest with her father.
As a Third-rank Talisman Master, she was not lacking in money, even was considered a small rich lady in the Lu Family.
But earning money oneself couldn’t pare to direct support from dad.
"Thud!"
Despite the words, facing a daughter ignorant of the family obligations, Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but lightly tap her head.
Then he threw the Corpse King Pearl and Storage Bag into Lu Ping’an’s hands, "Father has other matters, might not be home, take these in advance."
"Thank you, dad."
Though his father treated wealth casually and freely.
Lu Ping’an deeply felt his father increasingly busy, constantly traveling.
In such circumstances, as the eldest son, enjoying many family blessings, yet unable to ease his father’s burdens.
Even treated by his father as a child, persistently gifted abundant cultivation resources, he felt a heavy heart.
In other family forces, children like himself would generally be working outside, earning resources, supporting the family.
"Cultivate well, later father has tasks for you."
Knowing his son bears heavy responsibility, Lu Changsheng patted his shoulder.
Planning to take him for some tasks later.
Like dealing with the Seven Killings Sect, bringing his son Lu Ping’an along.
Heading to Jin Kingdom to resolve issues with Yiming Ghost Sect, with Lu Quanzhen assisting, handling trivial matters would ease the process.
Believing in having one or two capable children, bringing them along to be quite helpful.
"Yes, father."
Lu Ping’an knew his father’s words were meant to reassure him, telling him not to worry too much.
Thinking of plans for years later, after the child’s birth, when siblings like Lu Wangshu break through to Core Formation, he and Qin Yi would set out, sharing the family’s pressures, or head to the warfront.
Over these years, he kept track of the Liangyue War’s situation.
Knowing that after Yue Country’s defeat, Jiang Country would be extremely precarious.
Given his Bi Lake Mountain Family is now Jiang Country’s leading Great Clan, they would inevitably be affected.
At that time, it wouldn’t merely be brother Lu Qingxuan leading support.
The entire Family force would be drawn into the Cultivation World’s war.
Lu Changsheng also inquired about Lu Ping’an’s cultivation progress, then turned to his daughter Lu Wangshu, smiling, "Wangshu, did you sense the second opportunity for Heavenly Dao Core Formation?"
From his daughter’s eager and expectant expression, he guessed she had a breakthrough but faced bottlenecks inhibiting further progress.
"Dad, I’ve fully prehended the opportunity for Heavenly Dao Core Formation."
"Give me time, and I can align my state to this point to sense the Heavenly Dao Core Formation opportunity."
