Lu Yuanzhong, who had always been stationed at the Red Leaf Valley Market, also came back. After greetings were exchanged, Lu Changsheng tousled his daughter's hair and sized up his son before laughing and saying, "It seems you've made quite some progress." Although they had not seen each other for just over four years, it was clearly evident that his son had undergone significant changes. The contours of his eyes and brows had developed a sharper, more heroic edge, and his whole body exuded a vigorous and prominent energy. Lu Changsheng knew that this was the effect of the "Sword Charging Bull's Might" Seed of Law. "Hehe, all thanks to the excellent teaching of father." Lu Qingshan smiled broadly, displaying a face of humility. Though he was proud and ambitious, he knew that his rapid progress in Sword Dao, as natural as eating and drinking, was wholly due to the sword dao seed his father had given. Otherwise, even with his Gengjin Body Constitution and some talent in Sword Dao, it would not have been to this extent. Moreover, hearing from his grandfather today about his father's exploits over these years and combining it with the sword dao seed made him deeply realize his father was no ordinary man. The whole person seemed to be veiled by a layer of mist, filled with a mysterious air! "Qingshan really does look a bit like a Sword Immortal now." Lu Miaoge looked at her son and complimented him warmly. "Hehe, aunt, I won't hide it from you; I'm currently nicknamed 'Little Sword Immortal' back at the Sect, and Little Zhu can attest to that." Upon hearing this, Lu Qingshan immediately spoke with a face full of pride. As the saying goes, being rich and not returning home is like walking at night in brocade clothing. This trip home, if he didn't properly boast about his achievements, it would be more painful for him than death. "Alright, alright, let's eat, you're getting too cocky." Lu Changsheng slapped his son on the head somewhat irritably. This son was too dazzling. Continuing to show off like this was likely to create a big psychological gap for his other son, Lu Qingsong. The two were brothers, and after not seeing each other for fifteen years, their growth was worlds apart. "Qingshan, I heard from your mother about the Jinyang Sect's sword competition which happens every five years, how did this competition go?" After everyone was seated, Lu Miaohuan asked her son cheerfully. Although her son liked to show off, she, as a mother, did the same. Now that her son made her proud, she naturally wanted others like Lu Yuanding and Lu Yuanzhong to know about her son's achievements and the matters concerning Jinyang Sect. After all, she Lu Miaohuan might not be like her sister, but her son was formidable! Lu Qingshan, hearing this, immediately perked up. In his heart, he thought his mother really understood him perfectly. He coughed lightly, straightened his posture, and with a nonchalant demeanor called out to his sister Lu Qingzhu, "Little Zhu." Lu Qingzhu clearly understood what her brother meant. However, she still obediently played along and crisply said, "Aunt, brother won first place in the Sect's sword competition this time." "Hisss!" "Hisss!" "Hisss!" Lu Yuanzhong, Lu Yuanding, Lu Muping, Lu Miaochang, and others at the table inhaled sharply upon hearing this, their faces full of surprise as they looked towards Lu Qingshan. Even Lu Qingsong couldn't help but look at his brother, whom he hadn't seen for more than ten years in astonishment. Although they were not aware of the specifics of Jinyang Sect, they knew it was one of the Five Great Immortal Sects of Yue Country! To obtain first place in such an Immortal Sect's sword competition undoubtedly confirmed his talent and strength! "First place!" Lu Miaohuan looked at her son with a face full of surprise and joy. "Mother, it's just a contest among Qi Refinement disciples, it's not that big of a deal." Lu Qingshan said with a nonchalant demeanor. But Lu Changsheng, seeing his son's corners of mouth continually rise, was quite speechless. He thought to himself, how did his son develop such a temperament, couldn't he be more composed like himself? "It's already very impressive, there must be several thousand Qi Refinement disciples in Jinyang Sect, right?" Lu Yuanzhong chimed in, feeling amazed. He was not only surprised by his young grandson's cultivation level of Ninth Level Energy Refinement, but also astonished that he stood out from among thousands in the Sect and won the first place! Such an achievement was unthinkable for them in the past. To produce such a prodigy in the family was literally 'golden light bursting forth from the ancestral tomb'! However, he felt some regret that Lu Qingshan was not enrolled under Qingyun Sect. If that were the case, with this relationship, both families could gain many conveniences. "About that, actually only a thousand disciples participated." Lu Qingshan said. "By the way, Qingshan, Little Zhu, why did you come back so suddenly?" Lu Miaohuan continued to show concern. The journey from Jinyang Sect was long, and they had experienced it themselves. "I heard that the Purple Shadow Secret Realm was about to open in Jiang Country, so I thought to come and temper myself and also bring Little Zhu home, so I asked the master to send us back." Lu Qingshan explained. "Purple Shadow Secret Realm!?" "Qingshan, you are going to the Purple Shadow Secret Realm?" Everyone was quite surprised upon hearing Lu Qingshan's words. They hadn't expected his trip home was actually aiming to head to the Purple Shadow Secret Realm. Although the Purple Shadow Secret Realm contained many Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, mostly Loose Cultivators and Family Forces went to try their luck! Disciples of the Immortal Sects generally didn't go as often; mostly used as a trial and exploration. "Purple Shadow Secret Realm..." Lu Changsheng's brows furrowed slightly, not expecting Lu Qingshan to also go to the Purple Shadow Secret Realm. He immediately looked towards his daughter Lu Qingzhu and asked, "Qingzhu, you're not going, are you?" His son going in, he could understand. But he couldn't put his mind at ease about his daughter's capabilities. He would not allow it. "Father, don't worry, I wouldn't possibly let Little Zhu go for such a thing," Lu Qingshan immediately said. Then with a face full of confident ease he reassured, "Mother, Grandfather, don't worry, with my strength, there won't be any danger in going to the Purple Shadow Secret Realm." "If there were any danger, my master wouldn't agree." Lu Qingshan said, assuring everyone.
