Chapter 848 -310: Dragon and Phoenix Twins, 3rd Stage Music Mastery!_3 After all, such a grand ceremony could elevate Qingyun Sect’s reputation and prestige to a whole new level. Thus, all the Foundation Establishment families and powers under Qingyun’s rule had received an invitation and could attend the ceremony. “Yun’er, ask Qingzhu Mountain and Hundred Birds Lake later about what gifts they plan to send, and our family will prepare accordingly,” Lu Changsheng said to his son, Lu Yun. Attending such a ceremony naturally required a generous gift. He had no intention of being unorthodox or giving an exceptionally rare item. Just something somewhat superior to what Qingzhu Mountain and Hundred Birds Lake would offer would suffice. ... “Yes, Father,” Lu Yun responded, nodding to his father’s words. “Yun’er, although you are the Family Head and busy with many matters daily, do not neglect your cultivation too much,” Lu Changsheng said softly after glancing at his son. His son possessed a Seventh Grade Spiritual Root, but his current cultivation level was only at the fifth level of Qi Refinement, which indeed lagged behind. However, he also knew that, on one hand, Lu Yun devoted his time to the family affairs. On the other hand, this son had one wife, five concubines, and eight children. “Your child understands,” Lu Yun responded respectfully upon hearing this. “Hmm,” Lu Changsheng patted his son’s shoulder and did not say much else. Cultivation was not something that could be forced. Lu Yun probably understood that even with effort, his talent meant there was no hope of reaching the Foundation Establishment without focusing on other areas. Later, Lu Changsheng went to inspect the Puppet Factory and visit his son, Lu Xianzhi. Currently, of the Lu Family’s three major factories—the Puppet Factory, the Wine Brewing Factory, and the Talisman-Making Factory—only the Puppet Factory was thriving and showed great promise. The Wine Brewing aspect was profitable but only minimally so; its future prospects were limited. Or to put it another way, even though Lu Changsheng possessed Second Rank Wine Brewing skills, he couldn’t make a hit product or break into the market without investing significant time testing it. As for the Talisman-Making Factory, its earnings were even less. It was fair to say that his family also counted as a Talisman Path family, with everyone possessing some skill in talisman making. Through years of his guidance, his son Lu Xianzhi had reached the level of a High Grade Puppet Master. This talent was quite ordinary. Compared to some recruited puppet apprentices—even other children—it was nothing special. But fortunately, he was diligent in his work and competent in all aspects. With him managing the Golden Armor Spirit Bean, the core Fusion Formation, and the Inscription Skill, Lu Changsheng felt very reassured. “Father, the factory is now capable of producing ‘Battle Beast Puppet Number Four,’ but the process is not yet stable, and given the raw material costs, it’s challenging to turn a profit if we scale up, so we can only use it to break into the market and gain a reputation,” “The child plans to test the waters at the auction, then gradually release it into the market,” Lu Xianzhi reported on the factory situation to Lu Changsheng. “Hmm, alright, you can decide on these things yourself,” Lu Changsheng said, nodding. Though he understood puppetry and had a general grasp of the business, he never interfered. He generally left it to his children. After inspecting the Puppet Factory, he went to see his beloved daughter, Lu Wangshu, to teach her cultivation and talisman-making, and then he joined her in fishing. After many years of fishing, Mr. Lu, despite his poor luck, had also become skilled at it. Although it might seem he favored his daughter, after spending time with her, he would also pay attention to all his children. Of course, for talents like Lu Qingxuan, Lu Xingyang, Lu Xingchen, and Lu Qingyan, he focused a bit more. After all, if the family were truly to rise to prominence, it needed a core group of strong leaders. And these talented sons were easier to develop. As for his son Lu Quanzhen, he spent most of his time in the Red Maple Marketplace. Regarding this son, he, as a father, frankly lacked a sense of achievement. However, his daughter Lu Caizhen and Hong Yi’s son, Hong Xuanji, were set to marry. Lu Changsheng didn’t care much about this. After all, on the secular side, not only did his son Lu Wuyu marry Li Feiyu’s daughter Li Xue’er, but the two families had also intermarried. Hong Xuanji was commendable in his conduct and dealings. The only issue was Lu Changsheng felt this nephew wasn’t entirely sincere towards his daughter. It seemed likely he partly intended to marry into the family to climb up socially. But since his daughter was willing and the young man treated her well, he had little to comment on. … [Congratulations, host, seventy of your progeny have broken through to Martial Dao Innate, gaining a Bloodline Effect: Probability of Progeny Increase by 5%, and a chance for a draw!] That day, while Lu Changsheng was crafting a talisman, a system notification echoed in his mind. “Martial Path is doing well, well-organized,” Lu Changsheng said with a smile upon hearing the notification. “I wonder what I’ll draw this time?” He opened the drawing system and immediately said, “System, draw!” Instantly, a golden light began spinning on a light red wheel. After a moment, the golden light stopped on Skills. [Ding, congratulations, host, you have acquired a Third Rank Music Mastery!] [The reward has been placed in the System Space, and the host can check it at any time] A symbol of Music Mastery appeared as a light orb from the big wheel, accompanied by the system voice. “Third Rank? Music Mastery?” Lu Changsheng looked at the reward, momentarily stunned, then speechless. The good news was admitting that among the skills, one could draw a Third Rank skill. The bad news was, it was Music Mastery! Regarding it, Lu Changsheng was unsure what to say. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖 After all, if he got something more useful, not to mention Formation or Artifact Refining. Even Spirit Plant, Medicine, Beast Taming, Gu insects, or Swordsmanship would be many times better than Music Mastery. If it were Second Rank Music Mastery, Lu Changsheng wouldn’t feel so dismayed. After all, this wasn’t his first time drawing a useless skill. “Sigh, Music Mastery then. While not very useful, if I were to think about it, it might be of some use.” “Maybe even with a good command of music, I could capture the heart of some art-loving female cultivator,” Lu Changsheng sighed, comforting himself. Presently, with a slight movement of his will, he looked at the Music Mastery skill in the System Space. [Third Rank Music Mastery: Upon use, immediately obtain the full Third Rank Music Mastery along with basic scores.]
