Chapter 158: You Are All My Wings, Superior Spiritual Roots!

They say a little parting is better than a new marriage.

After a passionate night with Lu Miaoge, Lu Changsheng headdd to the cave area early the next morning.

“Xiyue, it’s me, open the door.”

At the entrance of a cave, Lu Changsheng took out Xiao Xiyue’s Communication Talisman.

Soon, the cave’s barrier opened.

Xiao Xiyue, wearing a moon-white dress, appeared, her face cold and pure like a fairy from the Moon Palace.

“Changsheng.”

Seeing Lu Changsheng, her cold face melted like snow, revealing a smile.

“Did you miss me these days?”

Lu Changsheng naturally held Xiao Xiyue’s soft, smooth, slender hand and said warmly.

Entering the cave, he embraced her.

The familiar rich fragrance at the tip of his nose was intoxicating.

Although they were already very close, after half a year of not seeing each other, Lu Changsheng’s intimacy made Xiao Xiyue’s cheeks blush.

However, his gentle words and actions did not repel her; instead, her heart trembled with emotion.

She didn’t suppress her feelings and softly said, “Yes, I missed you.”

“Xiyue misses me, and I’ve been thinking about Xiyue too.”

Lu Changsheng whispered in her ear as he held her.

Hearing this, Xiao Xiyue’s heart filled with sweetness.

But she wasn’t easily deceived.

She looked at Lu Changsheng with a teasing smile, “Hmph, sweet talker. With so many wives and concubines at home, how could you remember me?”

“Xiyue, are you jealous?”

“You are all my wings. How could I forget you? I came to you as soon as I had time.”

Lu Changsheng smiled and changed the topic, “Xiyue, let me check your Dao Foundation.”

“Hmm.”

Xiao Xiyue let out a soft hum and slowly closed her eyes.

With rustling sounds, her long, slender legs tensed.

Her snow-white feet wrapped in moon-white silk socks, with ten crystal-clear toes, curled involuntarily.

After a long time.

Afterwards.

Xiao Xiyue refined the Yin and Yang energies, solidifying her Dao Foundation.

She leaned lightly in Lu Changsheng’s arms and said, “Changsheng, I heard some news in the sect.”

“Meng Zhenren’s grandson, Meng Yibai, whom we met at the Cloud Peak Market, is dead.”

Xiao Xiyue spoke.

Meng Yibai was not only the grandson of a fake Core Formation Zhenren.

He was also a core disciple of Azure Cloud Sect.

Even in a sect like Cloud Peak, Foundation Establishment cultivators are quite valuable, considered the backbone.

Moreover, Meng Yibai was no ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator.

His death outside the sect is significant news in Azure Cloud Sect.

“Meng Yibai?”

Lu Changsheng, playing with her full, soft bosom, heard this and raised an eyebrow.

Since Xiao Xiyue told him this news, she must have guessed it was his doing.

He didn’t hide it, smiling lightly, “After I left the Market, he came to kill me for no reason, so I killed him.”

Xiao Xiyue wasn’t surprised by this.

As Lu Changsheng guessed, when she heard the news, she suspected it was related to him.

Especially after understanding the situation and knowing Meng Yibai, she was almost certain Meng Yibai was killed by Lu Changsheng.

Although she didn’t know how Lu Changsheng, who just broke through to Foundation Establishment, killed Meng Yibai, a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator.

But with his Yin-Yang Five Elements Dao Foundation and his previous feat of killing a Red-Clothed Youth, Lu Changsheng appeared even more majestic in her eyes.

She felt this matter, though shocking, was understandable.

After all, the person she liked, Xiao Xiyue, wasn’t simple.

“Changsheng, regarding Meng Yibai, although Meng Zhenren hasn’t traced it to you, she did investigate at the Cloud Peak Market, possibly suspecting us.”

“Because of my master, she didn’t question me.”

“As far as I know, Meng Zhenren loved Meng Yibai dearly and won’t give up easily. She’ll keep investigating.”

“I disguised myself and hid my identity when I went down the mountain. You should be careful too.”

Xiao Xiyue whispered while leaning in Lu Changsheng’s arms.

After suspecting Lu Changsheng, she naturally looked into the situation.

She knew Meng Xiangu left Azure Cloud Sect immediately after Meng Yibai’s death to investigate, even visiting the Cloud Peak Market.

If she inquired at the Market, Lu Changsheng and herself might be suspects.

Cultivators never rely on evidence.

Especially when there’s a power difference, evidence doesn’t matter.

With her Core Formation master, she wasn’t afraid.

But if Lu Changsheng was targeted, it could be dangerous.

That’s why she told him.

“Alright, I’ll be careful.”

Lu Changsheng nodded.

Although he refined the Resentful Soul Silk, preventing Meng Xiangu from tracking him.

The place where he killed Meng Yibai was close to the Cloud Peak Market.

If Azure Cloud Sect investigated, they might find clues.

In the cultivation world, nothing is certain.

“Xiyue, what about Azure Cloud Sect?”

“Any reaction to Meng Yibai’s death?”

Lu Changsheng asked.

He wanted to know how the sect would handle it.

“The sect sent the Discipline Hall to investigate.”

“But since Meng Zhenren found nothing, it’s just a formality.”

Xiao Xiyue shook her head.

Although the sect was angry about a core disciple’s death.

They wouldn’t make a big fuss.

“Alright.”

Lu Changsheng nodded.

Half a year had passed, and Azure Cloud Sect and Meng Zhenren hadn’t made any moves, indicating they hadn’t linked it to him.

But Meng Zhenren wouldn’t give up on her grandson’s death, so he had to be cautious.

Meng Yibai’s spiritual tools, Earth Spirit Mouse, pet egg, and that Talisman Treasure, couldn’t be revealed.

If exposed or sold, Azure Cloud Sect or Meng Zhenren might notice.

After chatting and spending time together, Lu Changsheng left.

He had a wife and children to care for and couldn’t stay with Xiao Xiyue.

He came to check on Xiao Xiyue and help her repair her Dao Foundation.

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

During this time, Lu Changsheng stayed at the Hongye Valley Marketplace.

Every day, he made talismans, refined the Nine-Treasure Jade Ruyi, dual cultivated with Lu Miaoge, and repaired Xiao iyue’s Dao Foundation.

His days were very fulfilling.

With his Foundation Establishment, he could refine the Nine-Treasure Jade Ruyi faster.

In a year, he could finish refining it and use it to cultivate the Hundred Refined Body Technique.

With frequent Dual Cultivation, Lu Changsheng realized the importance of a strong body.

Although his body was strong, ordinary concubines couldn’t withstand his full strength.

He felt that even if he improved the Hundred Refined Body Technique, he couldn’t fully enjoy Dual Cultivation and needed female cultivators with strong bodies.

Half a month ago, after taking the Three Yang Pill, Lu Miaoge smoothly broke throogh from the eighth to the Ninth Level of Qi Refining.

In five or six years, she could reach the peak of Qi Refining and prepare for Foundation Establishment.

Living a fulfilling life at the Hongye Valley Marketplace, Lu Changsheng didn’t forget his wives and concubines at home.

He told Lu Miaoge and Xiao Xiyue and eturned to Qingzhu Mountain.

After all, his base was still at Qingzhu Mountain.

He always remembered his original intention: to raise and create children well.

Returning to Qingzhu Mountain, Lu Changsheng learned that his efforts over the past half month had made his concubine, Kui Si, pregnant.

He was pleased and, after checking on his wives and children, continued his efforts to create more children.

After staying at Qingzhu Mountain for half a month and getting another maid pregnant, he rode the Iron Feather Eagle to Ruyi County.

To visit his wives and children.

And to see Bai Ling.

It had been half a year since they last met.

He didn’t want the girl to forget him.

She could also start cultivating.

Arriving in Ruyi County, Lu Changsheng went home to visit for a while before heading to Bai Ling’s place.

“Brother~”

Bai Ling was learning to weave with Granny Zhao.

Seeing Lu Changsheng arrive, her little face immediately showed a look of surprise, and she ran over.

She was still wearing that beautiful white flowing dress.

But Lu Changsheng looked at the current Bai Ling and always felt she was more charming than six months ago.

Although the word “charming” was quite inappropriate for a twelve-year-old girl.

But Lu Changsheng just had this feeling.

Moreover, he could clearly sense that this was not an illusion.

She really had this kind of change.

This made Lu Changsheng speculate that it should be related to Bai Ling’s physical condition.

After all, he had seen Bai Ling’s eyes appear dazed and slightly lost before.

“Master.”

Granny Zhao saw Lu Changsheng and respectfully said.

She also knew that her current life was entirely thanks to Bai Ling.

So she was very clear about her position.

Usually, she also made Bai Ling think well of Lu Changsheng.

“How has Xiaoling been lately?”

Lu Changsheng nodded, then looked at the little girl in front of him, rubbed her double ponytails, and asked gently.

“Ling’er has been very happy lately. Not only is there good food, but Wuyou, Xile, and Ruyi also take me out to play.”

Bai Ling tilted her head and happily talked about her life.

She missed Lu Changsheng very much after not seeing him for half a year.

Not only had Lu Changsheng saved her, but he had also been like a light, gradually soothing her scarred heart.

This made her have a special feeling for Lu Changsheng.

“Xiaoling, do you remember what brother told you before, that you have a destiny with immortality?”

After chatting with Bai Ling for a long time, Lu Changsheng asked.

“Yes, brother, can Ling’er really cultivate immortality?”

Bai Ling’s eyes sparkled with hope as she spoke.

Although she spent most of her time at home in the past six months.

But because of Lu Changsheng’s advice, Lu Wuyou, Lu Xile, and Lu Ruyi often came to play with her.

During this time, she also learned a bit about Lu Changsheng, fate with immortality, and cultivation.

So she had always longed to have a fate with immortality and to cultivate so she could stay with Lu Changsheng.

“Of course, brother wouldn’t lie to you.”

Lu Changsheng smiled and took Bai Ling to the Lu mansion.

In the backyard of the Lu mansion, he had set up a small gathering spirit formation.

The Qi there was enough for early and mid-stage Qi refining cultivators to meditate and practice.

Walking on the street, when pedestrians passed by, Lu Changsheng noticed that Bai Ling looked a bit timid, holding his hand tightly.

She was obviously still socially anxious and afraid of strangers.

He understood in his heart that she only behaved naturally in front of him.

Once she left home and faced strangers, her social anxiety would kick in.

Lu Changsheng also knew that this was psychological trauma.

It was not something that could be completely healed quickly.

“It’s okay, brother is here.”

Lu Changsheng squeezed her little hand and said gently.

“Mm-hmm.”

Bai Ling looked at Lu Changsheng’s handsome face and felt like a spring breeze was blowing, making her heart calm and not so scared anymore.

Arriving at the backyard where the small gathering spirit formation was set up, Lu Changsheng began to teach Bai Ling the “Return to Origin Technique.”

This technique was a non-attribute cultivation method.

It was not only easy to learn but also convenient for switching to other techniques later.

After Lu Changsheng’s half-day explanation, Bai Ling also understood the cultivation method.

Through exploration, she could sense the Qi of heaven and earth and try to guide it into her body.

“This Qi is very friendly.”

Lu Changsheng watched Bai Ling sit cross-legged, her small face tightly shut, seriously absorbing the Qi of heaven and earth, and he was amazed.

As a Foundation Establishment cultivator, he could clearly capture the Qi of heaven and earth moving in the air.

And Bai Ling’s speed of guiding Qi into her body was top-notch.

He quietly watched Bai Ling cultivate.

“Brother, I followed what you said, let the energy flow here, here, and here, then stop here.”

Half an hour later, Bai Ling opened her eyes and gestured with her small hands as she spoke.

“Only half an hour and you refined the first wisp of Qi.”

“And it was in this small gathering spirit formation in the mundane world.”

Lu Changsheng was a bit shocked.

He still remembered that when he had only a Ninth-Tier spiritual root, it took him one night at Qingzhu Mountain Estate to refine the first wisp of Qi.

“So, Bai Ling’s spiritual root is at least a superior spiritual root!”

“Or even if it’s not a superior spiritual root, due to her physique, her cultivation speed is not inferior to a superior spiritual root!”

Lu Changsheng made a judgment in his heart.

He had previously checked Bai Ling’s body with his Divine Sense.

But Bai Ling’s situation was very special.

He couldn’t see her physical condition or the quality of her spiritual root.

Even the snake scales on her hand were a mystery to Lu Changsheng.

“Brother?”

Bai Ling saw Lu Changsheng staring at her in a daze and called out softly.

She thought she had done something wrong and made Lu Changsheng disappointed.

“It’s okay, Xiaoling is amazing to have done it so quickly.”

Lu Changsheng came back to his senses, rubbed her little head, and smiled gently.

“Hehe.”

Hearing this, Bai Ling immediately showed a happy and contented smile.

“Should I take Bai Ling to Qingzhu Mountain?”

Lu Changsheng thought to himself.

In the mundane world, although there was a small gathering spirit formation, early cultivation wouldn’t be affected.

But it was ultimately not as good as Qingzhu Mountain.

And if he took Bai Ling to Qingzhu Mountain, it would be easier to check her condition and cultivate feelings.

After thinking for a while, Lu Changsheng decided to take Bai Ling to Qingzhu Mountain.

It was indeed inconvenient in the mundane world.

Besides, Bai Ling’s situation would eventually require her to go to Qingzhu Mountain, so it was better to go now.

Moreover, with Bai Ling’s cultivation speed, which was at least a superior spiritual root, he felt uneasy leaving her in the mundane world.

Although there were no powerful cultivators in the mundane world, one couldn’t be too careful.

Who knew if a powerful cultivator might pass by, see Bai Ling’s extraordinary potential, and take her away.

At Qingzhu Mountain, it would be much safer.

“Sigh, if only I had my own spiritual land, my own home, it would be much more convenient and stable.”

“I wouldn’t have to be so busy, running around all the time.”

Lu Changsheng suddenly thought.

If he had his own spiritual land, it would be much more convenient for situations like Bai Ling’s.

Xiao Xiyue wouldn’t have to live in the Hongye Valley Marketplace all the time.

Even his non-spiritual root offspring like Lu Ping’an could build a small village or city to live in the spiritual land when they grew up.

“It seems that reaching a certain level, one still needs a home.”

Lu Changsheng sighed in his heart.

He then told Bai Ling that he was going to take her to another home.

Hearing this, Bai Ling was also very happy.

But she was a bit reluctant to leave her new friends, Lu Wuyou, Lu Xile, and Lu Ruyi.

After all, in the village, she was always despised and called a monster, having no friends. Now she finally had some friends.

If they parted, it would be a long time before they could see each other again.

“It’s okay, brother will come to see them when he has time, and he can bring you along.”

Lu Changsheng rubbed the little girl’s head and said with a smile.

He didn’t expect that after just half a year, Bai Ling had formed a friendship with his daughters.

After staying at home for half a month, Lu Changsheng took Bai Ling and Granny Zhao to Qingzhu Mountain.

Bai Ling’s social anxiety was severe, and she lacked a sense of security. If she went to Qingzhu Mountain and he wasn’t there, she would definitely feel insecure. Having Granny Zhao around would be much better.
