Chapter 942: Chapter 338: Repeat Rewards, Head to the Purple Shadow Secret Realm!_2 He had his own matters to attend to, just like his parents had theirs to do. “Yes, I’ll come visit Jiu’er when I have time.” Lu Ping’an quickly nodded and said. He planned to take care of the Parasitic Cultivators who had tried to kill him before, then return home. When he headed for Jiuxiao Immortal City, he would come to see his sister. “Brother Ping’an, you can’t lie to me. Come see me when you have time; let’s pinky swear.” The girl’s eyes seemed to twinkle with a bright glow as she stretched out her fair finger and solemnly said. “Okay.” Lu Ping’an grinned and extended his finger to pinky swear with the girl. “Brother Ping’an, when do you plan to leave?” After the pinky swear, Su Jiu’er smiled with her eyes squinting, appearing radiant and moist under the night sky. “Uh, in a few days.” Lu Ping’an thought it over, feeling he should spend a little more time with Su Jiu’er. “Mhmm, Brother Ping’an, please take good care of yourself when you leave. Grandma says it’s very dangerous outside.” Although Su Jiu’er felt quite disheartened, she tried to appear as natural as possible. She knew that showing her sadness would affect him. That night, the two talked for a long time until the grandmother reminded Su Jiu’er to go to bed, and she returned to her bamboo house to rest. Lu Ping’an also returned to his own room to rest. “Lu Ping’an.” At this moment, an old woman with white hair, a withered face, holding a serpent-headed cane, appeared in the room. “Grandma.” Lu Ping’an looked at the old woman and called out. After spending so much time together, he knew that this grandmother was a cultivator. But her specific name and cultivation level were unknown to him. He only knew that she was taking care of Su Jiu’er. Otherwise, he would have considered taking Su Jiu’er home with him, so she wouldn’t be so lonely and bored. “When you leave this place, you must not speak of Jiu’er’s matters to anyone.” The old woman’s voice was aged as she said this. “Please rest assured, Grandma. I will certainly not speak of your and Jiu’er’s matters.” Lu Ping’an might have been a bit naive, but he wasn’t foolish. He was aware that Su Jiu’er and the grandmother must have some secret, which was why they lived here. After some thought, he took a Heart Demon Oath on the spot. Because words alone were not reliable, for cultivators, this oath was extremely solemn. “Good, you can come see Jiu’er when you have the time.” Seeing this, the old woman’s voice softened slightly, and she vanished. Through her observations over the past six months, she saw that Lu Ping’an was forthright and not a malevolent person. Otherwise, even if he appeared to be a descendant of a True Monarch, she wouldn’t have let him leave so easily. However, throughout these six months, she felt that Lu Ping’an didn’t seem like the descendant of a True Monarch at all. He seemed more like an ordinary martial artist who had come upon a great fortune. Otherwise, how could it be that one on the Immortal Path still practiced everyday, crude martial arts? Seven days later. Lu Ping’an bid farewell to Su Jiu’er. He wanted to say something but felt that anything he said would be superfluous. Eventually, he merely scratched his head and softly said, “Jiu’er, take care.” “Brother Ping’an, this is the peace charm I made for you, I hope everything goes your way, safe and sound!” The girl’s eyelashes trembled slightly as she nodded with a smile, taking out a talisman pouch. “Thank you, it’s very pretty.” Lu Ping’an received the talisman pouch and earnestly said. He had noticed, days earlier, that the girl had been clumsily making the talisman pouch, obviously putting in a lot of effort. “I’m off.” Taking a deep breath, he waved his hand and said. “Mhmm.” Lu Ping’an took large strides without looking back, knowing that Su Jiu’er must be watching him. But at that moment, he couldn’t help remembering his own parting with Qin Yi years ago. Back then, like Su Jiu’er, he had bid farewell. Only at that time, they were divided by their mortal and immortal realms. She was headed for the distant Heavenly Sword Sect, while he had chosen to return home to take over the family business, so their chances of meeting again were virtually nonexistent. But now, it was not a farewell forever! Suddenly, Lu Ping’an turned around, his face beaming with a smile, and loudly said, “Jiu’er, don’t worry, I’ll come back to visit you when I have time!” “Brother Ping’an, have a safe journey!” The girl’s face showed a smile. “Whew!” At that moment, Lu Ping’an felt his heart was much more relaxed and carefree. Then, with a light step, his figure blurred like a phantom towards the direction of the cliff and the ruined temple. … Time flew quickly, and in the blink of an eye, three months had passed. Originally, Lu Changsheng had planned to take Lu Wangshu to the Luoyun Mountain Range during this time to visit Xiao Xiyue. But because of the opening of the Purple Shadow Secret Realm, and the return of Lu Qingshan and Lu Qingzhu to the family, this plan was naturally postponed. He planned to wait until the matters of the Purple Shadow Secret Realm were finished before taking his daughter Lu Wangshu out for a trip. As the time for the Purple Shadow Secret Realm’s opening drew near, many family forces and Loose Cultivators headed towards the realm. During these times, though sales of Elixir Medicines, Talisman, Puppets, and Magic Artifacts had increased, it wasn’t by a staggering amount. One reason was that everyone was aware of the Secret Realm and would have made preparations in advance. Another was that, although there were many going to the Secret Realm, once averaged out, the numbers seemed quite ordinary. However, sales of the Puppets from Bihu Mountain had seen a significant increase over these months. In the Puppet Workshop, within a side hall. Lu Changsheng was crafting a custom-made Puppet for his beloved daughter. His daughter, Lu Wangshu, was helping by taking care of the children, playing with Lu Lingxiao and Lu Linghe. “Biu!” Lu Wangshu made a gesture towards Lu Linghe, who paused for a moment before “Ah, awoo” collapsing to the ground. Sitting beside them, Lu Lingxiao watched the scene with disdain and speechlessness, feeling that the two were exceedingly childish, while focusing on their father engraving Spiritual Patterns. Lu Linghe, however, was having a great time, and then looking up with a ‘sister, sister’, he called out to Lu Wangshu for some candy. “Wangshu, eating too much candy is bad for your teeth.”
