However, with Lu Changsheng, the Second Rank Talisman Master and Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator as his father, these families were willing to marry their daughters to Lu Xianzhi. In the end, Lu Xianzhi and a girl with a Seventh Grade Spiritual Root from a smaller family took a liking to each other and nodded in agreement. For this, Lu Changsheng directly gave away three Second Rank Spirit Talismans as a dowry to settle the marriage. Faced with this generosity, the smaller family felt incredibly honored and flattered. You have to know, three Second Rank Spirit Talismans were worth thousands of Spirit Stones! The value of such a dowry could not be considered anything but high! But to Lu Changsheng, this was of little concern. Read the latest on freewebnovel.com His children were many, and in the future, most of them would need to marry, or even take concubines. And there were only so many families, big and small, around. There weren’t enough female cultivators to marry everyone. In such a situation, it was only natural for him, as a father, to manage his reputation well. Only then would the surrounding families be willing to marry their female cultivators into his family. Perhaps in the future, many female loose cultivators wandering outside, upon hearing of his family’s good reputation, would also be willing to marry into his household. Otherwise, with so many children, if everyone wanted to marry a ’fairy,’ establishing a family would be an enormous challenge in the future. This scene made many onlookers envious. As a Second Rank Talisman Master and a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator, he had the luxury to be capricious! Given that one son’s engagement could warrant giving away talismans worth thousands of Spirit Stones as a dowry. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖 This made everyone think that since the Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator, Lu Changsheng, was unwilling to take concubines, they might as well set their sights on his children. And so, the Foundation Establishment family banquet ended in a lively and bustling atmosphere. Nevertheless, many from the Lu Family who witnessed the banquet were somewhat surprised that Lu Changsheng did not take any concubines or maids. They had even made bets beforehand, guessing how many concubines Lu Changsheng would take this time. ... Evening. The night fell quietly, the moon shone like frost. In the courtyard with pavilions and towers amid rustling bamboo, goldfish frolicked, playfully distorting the moon’s reflection in the pond. "Hoo-hoo-hoo—" The sound of the wind rose suddenly, howling as it passed, causing the jade-green bamboo in the courtyard to rustle melodically. Inside the chamber, a warm light suffused the air. From the head of the bed’s incense burner, thick white threads of incense smoke curled up lazily, filling the room with a faint, tranquil fragrance. "Zi Xiao, how did it go?" Lu Changsheng asked tenderly as he cradled Ling Zixiao, her hair disheveled, cheeks flushed, and delicate body limp and powerless. Today, while healing through dual cultivation with Ling Zixiao, he suddenly thought that since his Yin Yang Energies could nourish the Nourishing Elixir for Nangong Mili, it might also have a healing effect. Therefore, he thought that using his Yin Yang Energies to nurture Ling Zixiao’s Dao Foundation might also benefit her meridians and Dantian. After all, the Dao Foundation is the very foundation of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator. If he could nurture her Dao Foundation, it might benefit her whole being. No sooner said than done. However, it was only when Lu Changsheng used his Yin Yang Energies to nourish Ling Zixiao’s Dao Foundation that he learned. Due to her Dragon Roar Physique, when Ling Zixiao had broken through to Foundation Establishment, her Dragon Roar Physique erupted and Yang Energies scorched her body, leading to mana disarray, an unsteady foundation, and flaws in her Dao Foundation. She formed a flawed Dao Foundation. And it was rather poor for a ’flawed Dao Foundation.’ It had several evident cracks and fissures, almost reaching the point of a shattered Dao Foundation. "Thank you, my lord, I can feel the cracks in my Dao Foundation being nourished and repaired," Ling Zixiao nestled in Lu Changsheng’s arms, her beautiful face blushing, and spoke softly. She had not expected Lu Changsheng to possess such Origin Source Qi that could nurture and repair her Dao Foundation. She had intended, once the issue with her Dragon Roar Physique was fully resolved, to seek heavenly materials and earthly treasures to heal her Dao Foundation. Unexpectedly, Lu Changsheng could directly solve this problem for her. This gave her another layer of understanding of the mystery surrounding Lu Changsheng. "As long as it is effective, that’s good. I’ve been so concerned about your Dragon Roar Physique issue that I forgot to pay attention to the Dao Foundation. Zi Xiao, rest assured, almost every month, my Origin Source Qi will be able to nurture your Dao Foundation once. Over time, your Dao Foundation can be fully recovered," Lu Changsheng said while gently stroking her smooth, white skin. "Mmm..." Ling Zixiao hummed softly in response. After a moment, she lifted her lovely face and asked Lu Changsheng, "My lord, you once mentioned establishing a family power; may I ask what preparations have been made so far?" When they met, she had asked Lu Changsheng about his intentions for her. Lu Changsheng said he planned to establish a family power and needed an Array Master to stand guard. Now, they had been back at Qingzhu Mountain for over a month. Seeing Lu Changsheng busy every day without any preparation towards establishing a family, she couldn’t help but be curious. Although in her eyes, Lu Changsheng had a shortcut. He could usurp Qingzhu Mountain for himself. But after being together for so long, she knew that he probably wouldn’t do such a thing. "I had planned, upon returning this time, to purchase a Spiritual Vein Blessed Land from the Qingyun Sect to establish as the Family Spirit Land, or to inspect the situation of the surrounding families and see if any of them had lost an elder in the battle at Blackwater Pool and were looking to sell their Family Spirit Land," "But as you know, since coming back, I’ve been so busy I haven’t had the time to investigate the Spirit Land situations around us," "Moreover, given the current situation of the Lu Family, it’s not appropriate for me to branch out on my own," Lu Changsheng sighed slightly and said. In fact, he felt quite an urgency to establish his own family. First of all, Learning about Jin Kingdom’s invasion by the Demon Path in Jiuxiao Immortal City, he was reminded that if such a situation were to recur, it added a sense of urgency in his mind.
