Chapter Index

    “Second Young Miss?”

    Lu Changsheng knew immediately that he had overthought it.

    It was not the eldest young miss Lu Miaoge..

    But instead, her younger sister.

    He had once seen her at Zhuxin Lake.

    Indeed, Lu Miaoge was not only beautiiul and gifted, but also a Talisman Master. It would be unlikely for the Lu Family to marry her off, especially not to him.

    However, marrying the second young miss to him was significant.

    After all, the second young miss not only had a Sixth-Tier Spirit Root but was also the daughter of the Lu Family’s head.

    It seemed his talent in Talisman Making, as a newly promoted mid-grade First-Tier Talisman Master, had made the Lu Family willing to invest heavily in him.

    Recalling the unforgettable memory of black silk stockings and long legs, Lu Changsheng nodded and cupped his hands, “Uncle Lu, I’ll definitely be there on time tomorrow.”

    Even if he suspected the Lu Family’s intention to bind him closer to them, Lu Changsheng didn’t mind.

    In fact, he was quite pleased.

    It wasn’t because of the second young miss’s appearance or her dazzling legs in black silk.

    But his travels three years ago made him realize this world was more dangerous than he thought.

    Given his temperament, surviving in such a world was tough.

    Moreover, he now had a family to support.

    So, Lu Changsheng had come to terms with joining the Lu Family.

    Anyway, with his child-blessing system, he would stay with the Lu Family and patiently wait.

    He would wait until his children were many and grown up, until he could break through the Foundation Establishment, then consider the future.

    Though living under others could seem limiting, due to his talent in Talisman Making, the Lu Family had treated him well after moving to Qingzhu Valley.

    The Lu Family was an upright immortal cultivating family.

    It was definitely safer than wandering outside alone.

    If he married the head’s daughter, he would not only have a wife with a Spirit Root but would also be truly seen as part of the Lu Family.

    He could then stay with the Lu Family, reassured, without worries.

    As for leaving the Lu Family, he still thought about standing on his own, but it seemed far off now. Lu Changsheng didn’t want to think too much about it.

    When the time came, and if the Lu Family treated him well, he wouldn’t leave them unfairly.

    “Alright.”

    Uncle Lu patted Lu Changsheng’s shoulder warmly, “The family head has already agreed with the second young miss. So, just perform well tomorrow, and it should go smoothly.”

    “Yes.”

    Lu Changsheng nodded in response and sent Uncle Lu off.

    However, he couldn’t help but recall Lu Miaohuan’s noble and aloof demeanor.

    He remembered being told, “If you keep staring, I’ll gouge out your eyes,” just for looking at her legs.

    He felt that the second young miss might be difficult to handle, and meeting her tomorrow could be challenging.

    “I hope the head really agreed and that the second young miss’s temper has mellowed out, not as bad as I imagine.”

    “Otherwise, even with a Sixth-Tier Spirit Root, the head’s daughter wouldn’t be worth it.”

    Lu Changsheng took a deep breath and returned to the courtyard.

    Though he was pleased with the marriage, he wasn’t desperate enough to beg for a wife just because of her Spirit Root.

    Not to mention his pride, but considering he already had four wives and concubines, he couldn’t afford to deal with someone difficult.

    Having such a wife would disrupt the harmony and stability in the household.

    “Husband, did Uncle Lu bring good news?”

    At this moment, a wife looked at Lu Changsheng and asked.

    “Haha, I’ve recently made a breakthrough in Talisman Making, advancing to a mid-grade First-Tier Talisman Master.”

    “So, Uncle Lu came to discuss some matters with me.”

    Lu Changsheng replied.

    He didn’t mention that Uncle Lu came about the matchmaking.

    After all, telling his wives he was going on a date the next day felt awkward.

    It would be better to discuss it after it was confirmed.

    What? Husband advanced to a mid-grade First-Tier Talisman Master?”

    “Husband, you’re amazing!”

    “If husband has advanced in Talisman Making, can he become a Second-Tier Talisman Master in the future!”

    “Husband has worked hard these days!”

    Several wives who overheard were immediately delighted, looking at Lu Changsheng with admiration and affection.

    Since Lu Changsheng became a Talisman Master, they had learned about the field.

    They knew advancing was tough, and his progress meant elevated status in the Lu Family.

    They would benefit from his newfound esteem.

    Nearby, children, although not understanding, saw their mothers’ joy and started cheering, “Wow, Dad is awesome! Dad is amazing!”

    Seeing this, a smile appeared on Lu Changsheng’s face.

    It felt great to be admired and loved by his wives and children.

    It satisfied the male ego thoroughly.

    That night.

    Afterwards!

    Afterwards!!

    Afterwards!!!

    Afterwards—

    Lu Changsheng held his affectionate and extraordinarily active women, realizing he needed to prioritize the Hundred Refined Body Technique.

    ……

    Early next morning, Uncle Lu came by to ensure Lu Changsheng wasn’t late or had forgotten.

    Lu Changsheng quickly got ready and headed with Uncle Lu to Zhuxin Villa.

    The Zhuxin Villa was near Zhuxin Lake. It was surrounded by lush grass and flowers, offering a beautiful environment.

    Except for the monthly market fairs on the first, it was a quiet and serene place.

    “The second young miss will arrive shortly. Please wait.”

    “The second young miss is simple-minded. Just flatter her a little, and agree with her.”

    Uncle Lu cared a lot about this matter and instructed Lu Changsheng before leaving.

    He stood guard outside to prevent any disturbance during the meeting.

    After all, Lu Yuanshan Ding was particularly concerned and had given him instructions.

    Hearing this, Lu Changsheng nodded and sat at a stone table in the courtyard, taking out a set of purple clay tea tools to brew Spirit Tea as he waited.

    After about half an hour, he heard a crisp, alluring sound in a rhythmic ‘click, click, click.’

    He looked up to see a tall, elegant figure, like a proud peacock, walking gracefully toward him.

    It was his blind date for the day, Lu Miaohuan.

    Lu Miaohuan had clearly dressed up today, her face adorned with exquisite makeup.

    She wore a fitted dress mixed with dark black and deep blue, speckled with shimmering stars, resembling a night sky, stunning.

    The black-blue starry dress was more conservative than the black-and-gold embroidered dress he had seen before, revealing only her elegant swan neck and shoulder.

    Yet, the shapely figure wrapped inside the dress still captured his imagination.

    “Click, click, click—”

    Lu Miaohuan walked gracefully, her black-stockinged legs partially visible under her dress, and her feet in matching starry-heels, each step leaving starry traces.

    Lu Changsheng quietly admired her stunning figure as she approached.

    Beauty is meant to be appreciated.

    Since the second young miss put thought into her attire, wouldn’t it be a waste not to appreciate her?

    One has to admire more than just appearance at such caliber; it is about grace and aura.

    The second young miss was tall and graceful, with a cold and noble beauty, exuding an aloof dignity that demanded respect.

    But also sparked a desire to conquer.

    “Lu Changsheng greets Miss Miaohuan.”

    Lu Changsheng withdrew his gaze, stood up, and greeted Lu Miaohuan warmly.

    Although she was enchanting and struck his aesthetic chord, Lu Changsheng had seen much in life and had enough poise to handle himself.
