Chapter 20: The Lu Sisters
by xennovelAfter arriving at his new home, Lu Changsheng took some moving items out of his Storage Bag and went to his new practice room to meditate.
He wanted to see how different the cultivation effects were on the Second-Tier spirit vein of Qingzhu Valley compared to the First-Tier spirit vein of Qingzhu Mountain Estate.
Several hours later, Lu Changsheng opened his eyes, filled with joy.
“As expected of a Second-Tier spirit vein! The Qi is several times richer than Qingzhu Mountain Estate. My cultivation speed has increased by 30%!”
At this moment, Lu Changsheng clearly felt the benefits of the Second-Tier spirit vein.
Moreover, the 30% increase was only because his speed of refining Qi was limited.
Otherwise, Lu Changsheng felt his cultivation speed could be even faster.
However, he was already very satisfied with this improvement.
From then on, Lu Changsheng became passionate about cultivation.
Four days later, a steward named Uncle Lu from Qingzhu Valley came to Lu Changsheng’s residence.
He brought a golden-bristled talisman brush and one hundred sets of talisman materials.
Lu Changsheng was to deliver twenty fire bomb talismans within a month.
This was one of the terms in the contract between Lu Changsheng and the Lu Family.
The Lu Family provided materials, and Lu Changsheng made the talismans.
For Lu Changsheng, making twenty fire bomb talismans in a month was no problem at all. It was pure profit.
However, this was also because the Lu Family was still in the nurturing stage with Lu Changsheng.
In the future, they would increase both the quantity and quality requirements for Talisman Making.
……
In the blink of an eye, Lu Changsheng had been living in Qingzhu Valley for over a month.
On this day, his eighth child was born.
It was a daughter.
When the child was born, Lu Changsheng didn’t feel any spiritual root tremors.
He immediately knew this child had no spiritual root.
Since he was sure the system could detect a child’s spiritual root, the lack of one in this child made him feel a bit disappointed.
But it was only a slight disappointment.
Regarding the matter of children’s spiritual roots, he had become much more open-minded and could accept it calmly.
Looking at the newborn child, Lu Changsheng suddenly remembered that today was the last day of the month, and tomorrow would be the first day of a new month.
In Qingzhu Valley, there was a small trade fair on the first day of every month.
“I haven’t seen this kind of trade fair among cultivators before. I might as well go take a look tomorrow.”
Lu Changsheng thought to himself.
After becoming a Talisman Master, he had received gifts from the Lu Family disciples and spirit seedlings, giving him some spare money.
So, he wanted to see what this small trade fair within the Lu Family was like.
Early the next morning, Lu Changsheng went to the trade fair location in Qingzhu Valley.
The place for the trade fair was called Bamboo Heart Lake, with pavilions and waterside structures built around it.
In these pavilions, members of the Lu Family displayed items for trade on stone tables.
Or they put up signs indicating what resources they wanted to buy.
Lu Changsheng wasn’t sure if he had arrived too early or if there were just so few people, as only about a dozen people had set up stalls.
There were only a few scattered items for sale, nothing he could use.
Lu Changsheng walked around once and found it uninteresting, ready to go back.
Just as Lu Changsheng was walking out of the waterside pavilion, he saw two women walking arm in arm towards him.
He recognized one of them as the eldest young lady, Lu Miaoge..
The eldest young lady was dressed very simply, her long black hair tied back with a moon-white silk ribbon, looking elegant and graceful.
She wore a plain, moon-white long dress without any other accessories, very simple and with an otherworldly aura, as graceful as an immortal.
Lu Changsheng hadn’t seen the other woman before.
But when he saw her, he couldn’t help but look a few more times.
This woman looked to be eighteen or nineteen years old, very beautiful, and bore a 70-80% resemblance to Lu Miaoge..
But her makeup, clothes, and temperament were worlds apart from Lu Miaoge..
Her makeup was very exquisite, her jet-black hair pulled back with a dark gold hairpin, with a few strands falling on her chest. Her white, delicate earlobes were adorned with two dazzling luminous stone earrings.
She wore a dark black, sexy, form-fitting dress embroidered with gold thread and off-the-shoulder, perfectly showcasing her curvaceous figure for all to see.
The skirt on the lower half had high slits on both sides like a qipao, allowing one to see part of the woman’s plump thighs and jade-like, round calves.
However, her long, slender legs weren’t snow-white, but covered with a layer of black silk stockings as thin as cicada wings, making her legs look even more slender and alluring.
What surprised Lu Changsheng and made him look twice, besides the black see-through stockings, were the woman’s shoes – a pair of elegant high heels with thin, high heels, black with gold patterns.
The thin heels were probably three or four inches high, making the woman’s leg contours look even more perfect and alluring, truly a leg enthusiast’s dream.
She looked cold and noble, sexy and alluring, half a head taller than the eldest young lady Lu Miaoge beside her..
“What are you looking at? Keep staring and I’ll gouge your eyes out!”
The woman in the black dress and high heels noticed Lu Changsheng’s gaze on her and spoke with a voice as cold as ice.
“Huanhuan.”
Seeing this, Lu Miaoge gently tugged at hee sister’s arm.
Then she gave Lu Changsheng an apologetic look.
Lu Changsheng also felt he had been a bit inappropriate.
Mainly because he hadn’t expected to see such an outfit with black stockings and high heels in this cultivation world.
Moreover.
The woman’s dark gold dress paired with black stockings and high heels was indeed eye-catching.
The noble and cold beauty mixed with a hint of sexy allure made him look twice involuntarily.
“Greetings, Young Lady Lu.”
“Greetings to this young lady as well. I apologize for my rudeness.”
Lu Changsheng bowed slightly with a composed demeanor.
If it were the past him, he might have felt embarrassed.
But now, as a man with three wives and six concubines and several children, this little incident didn’t embarrass him.
Food and sex, nature of all!
Isn’t it human nature to look twice when seeing black stockings for the first time?
However, from Lu Miaoge’s words and the twoowomen’s resemblance, he realized they were sisters, which surprised him.
He hadn’t expected the sisters to have such different temperaments and personalities.
“Lu Changsheng, are you here to buy something?”
Lu Miaoge asked Lu Changshenggin a gentle voice.
“I heard from Uncle Fu that there’s a small trade fair here on the first of every month, so I thought I’d come take a look.”
Lu Changsheng replied.
“The trade fair doesn’t get busy until noon. You’ve come a bit early.”
Lu Miaoge said softly..
“I see. Well, I’m not here to buy anything specific, just to have a look and broaden my horizons. Now that I’ve seen it, I’m planning to head back.”
Lu Changsheng nodded, not engaging in much more conversation.
It’s normal to admire beauty, but women like Lu Miaoge weren’t something hh could afford to get involved with for now, so it was better to have less contact.
Who knows if he might be targeted by her admirers or followers just for exchanging a few words with Lu Miaoge in public??
With that, Lu Changsheng bowed slightly and took his leave.
Watching Lu Changsheng’s retreating figure, the woman in the black dress next to Lu Miaoge showed a hint of diidain and said, “So that’s Lu Changsheng? He really is as lecherous as the rumors say, already with nine wives and concubines, yet still so lustful.”
“Huanhuan, you should also pay attention to your dress and appearance. It’s a bit…”
Lu Miaoge said in a gentle tooe.
“A bit frivolous, right, sister? I dress up for my own pleasure, not for others to see.”
Hearing her sister’s words, Lu Miaohuan pouted, completely unconcerned.
……
“It seems I still know too little about this world.”
“That’s right, I spent the first eighteen years of my life in the village, and besides being brought to the Azure Cloud Sect, the farthest place I’ve been to is the county town.”
“Now that I’ve come to the Lu Family, I’ve never left even half a step, learning everything from books. How could I possibly understand too much?”
“This is a world with cultivation after all, how can I view it with such a limited perspective?”
“In my past life’s wuxia and fantasy animations, weren’t high heels and long legs common? So having things like stockings and high heels is quite normal.”
Lu Changsheng returned to his residence, feeling somewhat emotional.
He didn’t dwell too much on today’s events.
It was just a small episode in life.
But in the future, he might look for places selling such shoes and stockings.
He had no other intentions, just purely wanting to send some gifts to his wives and concubines.
