But even with doubts and knowledge, it was useless. He was old. He didn’t dare to fight anymore, he couldn’t win. Now, he could only live in miserable comfort under the protection of the Yu Family. At least after his death, the Family Spirit Land could ostensibly be preserved. If the younger generation proved capable and one of them achieved Foundation Establishment, perhaps they could wrest back control of Wugong Ridge from the Yu Family. .... Not only the Yu Family, but the Bai Family and the Zheng Family as well. Many of the smaller family powers in the vicinity received information about the Lu Family, about Lu Changsheng. "What a pity that the Lu Family doesn’t celebrate the Foundation Establishment ceremony, otherwise I would have offered my daughter as a concubine to Lu Changsheng." "Hmph, your daughter may possess a Sixth Grade Spiritual Root, but with such plain looks, would Lu the Master even spare her a glance?" "Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator, Second Grade Talisman Master..." "I must find out which child of Lu the Master is favored, there might be a chance to foster good relations through that connection." Upon hearing about Lu Changsheng’s breakthrough in Foundation Establishment, these people immediately thought of offering their daughters. After all, those families who had previously given their daughters as concubines or maids to this Master Lu now all had offspring. If the offspring possessed Spiritual Root Talent and the future looked promising, it wouldn’t be necessary for them to do anything for their maternal home. Just this connection alone would be enough to bring them many benefits. Lu Changsheng was unaware of these external affairs. In the last few days, he had been at home accompanying his wives and concubines, concerned about the well-being of his children. Of course, he hadn’t forgotten the little girl Bai Ling either. About Bai Ling’s situation, he had gathered some information in Jiuxiao Immortal City. It was much as he had suspected. There was a high probability that her ancestors carried the bloodline of the Demon Race. Now, a reversion to ancestral traits was occurring. But based on the state of Bai Ling’s scales, Lu Changsheng was unable to determine exactly which Demon Race bloodline was reverting. He could only guess that it was a snake demon bloodline. "Brother~" Bai Ling was still as affectionate and sweet-voiced when facing Lu Changsheng. If Qu Zhenzhen’s personality was like that of a child who never grew up, Then Bai Ling was even more so, her nature incredibly simple and pure. "Ling’er." Lu Changsheng naturally pulled her into his embrace, kissed her porcelain forehead, and then gently ruffled her little head. Over a year had passed, and though the little girl hadn’t grown much taller, her figure had become increasingly exquisite and attractive. With curves that were alluring, Especially the slim waist of the young girl. She perfectly embodied the concept of a Water Serpent Waist! "Hmm, does Ling’er have something she wants to say?" Lu Changsheng chatted casually with Bai Ling, caring about her situation. Your next read is at empire Seeing Bai Ling hesitate to speak, her face blushing, he asked. "Brother, Ling’er is eighteen years old now." "Brother once said... when I turned eighteen, I could... marry Brother." Bai Ling clasped her white dress, lifted her beautiful head slightly, lightly bit her moist cherry lips, and with a pair of watery eyes full of hope, she looked at Lu Changsheng with a timid expression. From the moment Lu Changsheng took her home, she had been smitten with him. But she was too young then to understand all of this. When she reached fourteen or fifteen, she gradually came to understand. She started to anticipate furthering her relationship with Lu Changsheng, Hoping to bear Lu Changsheng children, just like the sisters in the house. But Lu Changsheng had never broached the subject. Finally, she mustered the courage to ask Brother if he liked her. Lu Changsheng, seeing Bai Ling in such a state, knew she was experiencing the first stirrings of love, So he said to wait until she was a little older, after she turned eighteen. This promise had Bai Ling eagerly looking forward to the day, waiting for it. A few days ago, when Lu Changsheng returned, she was filled with joy and anticipation, but Brother had not brought it up, had not initiated the conversation. So, after much thinking and restless nights, she finally decided to take the initiative and gather her courage. "Ah." When Lu Changsheng heard this, he too remembered that it had been seven years since he’d brought Bai Ling home. Because she was so young at the time, and considering her physical condition, he’d always kept her at his side. Which led him to feel almost as if he were raising a daughter. "Hehe, it seems Ling’er can’t wait any longer." Lu Changsheng looked at the shy, pitiable girl before him, who nearly cried out in her eagerness to speak, and laughed as he said, He pinched her delicate and flawlessly smooth, beautiful face. In the seven years that had passed, the little girl had become a woman who could cause the downfall of a state. Even among his harem, there were few who could rival the beauty of Bai Ling, this little girl. Her delicate and pure face was naturally gorgeous, Conveying an ethereal, untainted innocence that seemed removed from the mortal world. Her large, clear eyes were like peach blossoms, misted with dew, appearing enchanting and seductive, captivating the heart. An innocent and enchanting face, An exquisitely curvaceous figure, A moving, endearing, coy demeanor. All these qualities in one person made every move, every smile, deeply stirring. Lu Changsheng felt that only a manlike himself could remain unmoved by Bai Ling’s charm. Looking at the girl’s blushing face, with eyes like silk, and peach blossom-like, dew-wet eyes, Lu Changsheng chuckled and said, "Ling’er, wait for Brother to finish his current matters, then I’ll marry you, alright?" As soon as he spoke, he was slightly taken aback. He felt as if his words were like establishing a flag for impending death. "Mmhmm~" Bai Ling, hearing this, immediately nodded vigorously, her face alight with happiness.
