Establish A Long-Lived Family From The Son-In-Law

Chapter 121: No, Brother Lu!

The journey from Qingzhu Mountain to Hongye Valley is not very far.

It's only a distance of over a thousand li.

Because of the proximity, the two families often compete for resources and have conflicts around their family residences.

The Ling Shi Mine incident over ten years ago became the breaking point for all the conflicts, leading to a full-blown blood feud that cannot be resolved.

After traveling hundreds of li, Lu Changsheng saw a large army coming in this direction.

At the head of this army was an old man with a weathered face, tall stature, and dressed in a robe embroidered with flying birds.

He stood with his hands behind his back, his black bird-patterned robe fluttering in the wind, riding on a black eagle, exuding a powerful aura.

Behind him were three flying boats and a group of cultivators riding on spirit birds.

"Brother Lu, Friend Yuan Zhong!" The old man bowed to Lu's ancestral patriarch and Lu Yuan Zhong.

"Brother Bai! Friend Bai!" Lu's ancestral patriarch and Lu Yuan Zhong also returned the gesture to the Bai family's ancestral patriarch.

After a brief exchange, the three of them led their respective armies and accelerated towards Hongye Valley.

Obviously, they had arranged to meet here.

"So this is the Bai family of Bai Bird Lake, the ancestral patriarch of the Bai family?" Lu Changsheng looked at the Bai family's large army beside him.

There were about sixty people, apart from the only Foundation Building cultivator, the Bai family's ancestral patriarch.

In terms of the strength, number, and appearance of Qi Refining cultivators, it seemed to be similar to the Lu family.

However, as far as Lu Changsheng knew, apart from Lu Yuan Zhong, the newly promoted Foundation Building cultivator, the overall strength of the Bai family should be slightly stronger than the Lu family.

It seemed that the Bai family did not empty their entire family's combat power like the Lu family and put it all into this battle.

"Bai Bird Lake is rich in spirit fish and aquatic products, and many spirit birds come to the lake to catch them."

"So many Bai family cultivators are skilled in beast taming. They not only catch fish but also capture spirit birds and cultivate them to earn spirit stones."

Lu Changsheng looked at the spirit birds ridden by the Bai family's large army.

He could tell that these spirit birds were quite good.

They were not ordinary means of transportation like the Iron Feather Eagle.

They should have some combat power.

Like the majestic black eagle under the Bai family's ancestral patriarch, it was probably a peak-level monster of the first stage.

"When we arrive at Hongye Valley, you don't need to disembark from the flying boats. Just follow my arrangements," the four elders on the flying boat, including Lu Changsheng, Lu Miaoyun, and others, spoke.

They explained what to do after arriving at Hongye Valley.

The first step was to form a formation.

Then, using the talismans provided by the family, attack the formation and break it.

After the formation was broken, they would attack together with the four elders.

Obviously, the Lu and Bai families had already made detailed plans and arrangements for this battle.

"Yes, Grandmother!"

"Yes, Four Elders!"

Everyone on the flying boat nodded and responded.

Two hours later.

"Everyone, get ready. Hongye Valley is just ahead!"

Lu Yuan Zhong's loud voice reached everyone's ears.

The young disciples of the Lu family, who were eager to fight, were instantly invigorated and became fully alert.

"So this is Hongye Valley?" Lu Changsheng looked ahead.

He immediately saw a misty area covered by formations, where only the crimson valley could be seen.

This was his first time coming to Hongye Valley.

He knew that Hongye Valley was similar in size to Qingzhu Mountain and was known for its red leaf trees.

Inside Hongye Valley at this moment.

"Not good, enemy attack!"

The Chen family's stationed patrol saw the flying boats and cultivators approaching Hongye Valley from a distance and immediately changed their expressions, realizing that something was wrong.

They quickly sent a message to the clan, indicating that they were under attack.

At the same time, they activated the defensive effect of the large formation and entered a defensive state.

After the Lu and Bai families' large armies arrived around Hongye Valley, they began to spread out in an orderly manner.

They surrounded Hongye Valley from different directions.

Two formation masters who were proficient in formations took out their formation tools and began to set up formations outside Hongye Valley.

One was to prevent the Chen family cultivators from escaping.

The other was to break the Chen family's second-stage formation.

"Everyone, get ready to break the formation!"

The ancestral patriarchs of the Lu and Bai families did not shout or call for a formation.

They simply raised their hands and gave the order for everyone to start breaking the formation.

The next moment.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

All the Lu and Bai family cultivators took out talismans, cast spells, and erupted with intense spiritual light, bombarding the second-stage formation of Hongye Valley.

Causing ripples and rumbling sounds to appear on the barrier of the formation.

Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoyun also activated their talismans and bombarded the formation with the four elders in the southeast direction of Hongye Valley.

"It seems that no matter where you are, war is a money-burning affair."

Seeing the situation in front of him, Lu Changsheng couldn't help but think to himself.

Even though the Lu and Bai families each have three Foundation Building cultivators, it is not easy to break through the Chen family's second-tier formation.

They can only forcefully break the formation.

And this kind of attack method, to put it plainly, is burning money.

Each wave of attacks costs hundreds of spiritual stones.

To break through the Chen family's second-tier formation, it would probably cost tens of thousands of spiritual stones.

In front of the Red Leaf Valley.

The Patriarch of the Lu family looked at the formation in the Red Leaf Valley.

He transmitted his voice to Lu Yuanzhong beside him, "Yuanzhong, when the formation is broken, you can suppress it and try not to take action."

"Otherwise, that old ghost Chen might try to kill you."

"I have little life left, so I have no worries. It's just right to kill him and eliminate future troubles."

The Patriarch of the Lu family said in a deep voice.

Although they have three Foundation Building cultivators on their side.

Facing a Patriarch from the Chen family, victory is almost certain.

But there might be some means that the Chen family Patriarch possesses.

In a desperate struggle, they might try to kill Lu Yuanzhong and put the Lu family in crisis.

After all, the Patriarch of the Lu family is nearing the end of his life.

For the sake of Lu Yuanzhong's Foundation Building and this battle, the Lu family has consumed a great deal.

They don't have the ability to cultivate a second Foundation Building cultivator.

So there absolutely cannot be any accidents with Lu Yuanzhong.

"Patriarch."

Lu Yuanzhong's expression changed.

He also knows that the Patriarch has already embraced the idea of certain death in this battle.

He plans to fight with his life and kill the Chen family Patriarch.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to persuade the Patriarch of the Bai family.

To have the Bai family Patriarch bring so many people to participate in this battle.

Because in this kind of family war, it is necessary to kill the Chen family Patriarch, a Foundation Building cultivator.

Otherwise, if the Chen family Patriarch, a Foundation Building cultivator, escapes, it will bring endless troubles to the Chen and Bai families.

"Lao Gui from the Lu family, Lao Gui from the Bai family, do you really think you can break my Chen family's net and kill us?"

As the light in the Red Leaf Valley formation dimmed, a stream of light emerged from the Red Leaf Valley, emitting a terrifying spiritual pressure.

It was the Chen family Patriarch.

He quickly controlled the second-tier formation of the Qingzhu Mountain.

Causing the originally dimmed second-tier formation to burst with light at this moment, forming an indestructible glass-like giant bowl.

"The fish may die, but the net may not break."

The Patriarch of the Lu family said indifferently.

Then he shouted loudly, "Break the prohibition talisman, break the formation!"

With one command.

Immediately, the mid-stage Qi Refining cultivators from the Lu family and the Bai family all sacrificed first-tier prohibition talismans and bombarded the weak points of the formation.

Causing the giant bowl, which had just burst with light and looked like an inverted glass, to immediately dim slightly.

"Lu Yuanzhong from the Lu family, you actually broke through to Foundation Building!"

At this moment, the Chen family Patriarch saw Lu Yuanzhong beside the Patriarch of the Lu family, and his pupils contracted.

The Chen and Lu families are mortal enemies, so he naturally knows about the Lu family.

He knows which people have the potential to break through to Foundation Building.

At a glance, he recognized Lu Yuanzhong and realized that he had broken through to Foundation Building.

"Lao Gui from the Lu family, I never expected that before you die, the Lu family would actually produce a Foundation Building cultivator!"

The Chen family Patriarch looked at the Patriarch of the Lu family, his face darkening.

He thought that the Patriarch of the Lu family would die in a few more years.

But unexpectedly, at this time, the Lu family actually had a new Foundation Building cultivator.

He also understood that the Lu and Bai families were fully prepared and clearly intended to annihilate his Chen family today.

If the formation is broken, not only will the Chen family perish.

Under the siege of the three Foundation Building cultivators, he will also be unable to escape calamity.

"Chen old ghost, the grudges between our two families should also come to an end."

The Patriarch of the Lu family said in a cold voice.

"Lao Gui from the Lu family, do you really think my Chen family is easy to bully?"

The Chen family Patriarch sneered, his expression becoming extremely calm.

Immediately, he transmitted his voice, "Friend Meng, please help!"

In no time, a stream of light flew through the air and transformed into a slender young man.

"A Foundation Building cultivator!"

"How is this possible? How can the Chen family have two Foundation Building cultivators!"

"No, this person is not from the Chen family!"

Even though this young man did not emit the spiritual pressure of a Foundation Building cultivator, the Patriarch of the Lu family, the Patriarch of the Bai family, and Lu Yuanzhong all recognized at a glance that this young man was a Foundation Building cultivator.

All of their faces changed.

They came to the Red Leaf Valley for this battle, relying on the three Foundation Building cultivators, while the Chen family only had one Foundation Building cultivator.

With three against one, victory was within their grasp.

But if it became three against two, it would be difficult to kill the Chen family Patriarch.

And in this battle, they must be quick and decisive.

To take down the Red Leaf Valley with the force of thunder.

Otherwise, when the Zheng family from the Wugong Ridge receives the Chen family's call for help and rushes over, they will have no hope of taking the Red Leaf Valley.

"Patriarch."

"Brother Lu, do we fight or retreat?"

Lu Yuanzhong and the Patriarch of the Bai family looked at the Patriarch of the Lu family, asking him what he planned to do.

None of the three expected that the Chen family would have a second Foundation Building cultivator.

Their Lu and Bai families, on this trip to take the Red Leaf Valley, have spent a great deal of resources to distribute to all their disciples, all in the form of precious spiritual stones.

If we fail to take down Hongye Valley, it would be a huge loss for both families.

Moreover, choosing to retreat now would greatly affect the morale of our clan.

The patriarch of the Lu family remained silent.

His face was extremely ugly.

He did not expect this situation.

With little time left in his life, he didn't have much time.

Once he passed away, the Lu family would only have Lu Yuanzhong, a cultivator who had recently broken through the Foundation Building stage.

At that time, the Lu family would face great difficulties against the Chen family.

The Chen family might even join forces with the Zheng family from Wugong Ridge to attack their Qingzhu Mountain.

"Friend, you are not from the Chen family, right?"

"This matter is a grudge between my Lu family and the Chen family. As long as you leave and do not participate in this battle, my Lu family is willing to offer generous rewards."

"Or if you have any requests, you can also mention them."

The patriarch of the Lu family looked at Meng Xiaochan and politely said.

He also realized that the other party was not from the Chen family.

He hoped that the other party would leave and not participate in this battle.

"Meng friend, I have already sent a message to the Zheng family from Wugong Ridge. As long as the patriarch Zheng comes, the crisis will be resolved."

"My Chen family will not let Meng friend help for nothing. There will be generous rewards!"

The patriarch of the Chen family also hurriedly said to Meng Xiaochan.

Although Meng Xiaochan came here to settle an old grudge with the Lu family.

She wanted to participate in the Chen family's extermination of the Lu family and seek revenge while sharing the spoils.

But now, with three Foundation Building cultivators present, he didn't dare to bet on whether Meng Xiaochan would leave or not.

So if he wanted Meng Xiaochan, a Foundation Building cultivator, to help, he naturally had to pay a price.

Meng Xiaochan remained silent.

Because at this moment, she finally knew where her previous uneasiness came from.

The Locking Love Gu!

After breaking through the Foundation Building stage, she could barely suppress the influence of the Locking Love Gu.

But at this moment, her heart couldn't help but tremble, and affection began to spread.

Her divine sense involuntarily looked towards the southeast direction of Hongye Valley.

She saw a handsome and tall young man on a flying boat in the distance.

"Kill him, he must be killed!"

Seeing Lu Changsheng, the suppressed effect of the Locking Love Gu erupted like a tide, making Meng Xiaochan feel fear.

There was only one thought in her mind, to kill Lu Changsheng quickly and take back the Locking Love Gu.

"Chen patriarch, I can help you, but I need you to kill a cultivator from the Lu family for me."

She suddenly covered her chest, suppressing the twisting pain caused by the Locking Love Gu, and said in a deep voice.

"Who should be killed?"

The patriarch of the Chen family asked directly.

"I once made a vow not to harm him, so as long as the Chen patriarch is willing to take action, I am willing to help your Chen family overcome this disaster!"

"This person is on a flying boat in the southeast direction."

Meng Xiaochan gritted her teeth, her face filled with pain, and her voice difficult to utter.

She took out a jade slip and handed it to the patriarch of the Chen family.

Inside was Lu Changsheng's appearance.

Seeing Meng Xiaochan's painful appearance, the patriarch of the Chen family couldn't help but be somewhat surprised by her situation.

He believed fifty percent of Meng Xiaochan's words.

He could tell that she must have been bound by some kind of vow or curse.

He secretly thought that this was an extremely domineering vow.

To make a Foundation Building cultivator develop ill intentions towards someone and show such a painful expression.

But in the world of cultivation, there were all sorts of strange methods.

For example, some master-servant contracts would make the servant like this, unable to break free.

Once ill intentions arose, they would suffer from the backlash of the contract, making them suffer unbearably.

"Good, I, Chen, will accept this matter!"

The patriarch of the Chen family directly agreed.

At this moment, he had no choice but to agree.

Otherwise, once Meng Xiaochan left, their Hongye Valley would be in danger.

Moreover, looking at Meng Xiaochan's appearance, he also knew that if Lu Changsheng didn't die, once the great battle started, it might even affect the strength of his Foundation Building cultivation.

"Old ghost Lu, give up. This Meng friend is a worshipper of my Chen family. How could she leave?"

"I have already sent a message to friend Zheng. If you leave now, it's not too late!"

Immediately, the patriarch of the Chen family looked at the patriarch of the Lu family and said coldly.

"Continue breaking the formation!"

The patriarch of the Lu family gritted his teeth and said.

For him, this moment was already the point of no return.

Facing this situation, the Lu family had no choice but to fight.

"Brother Bai, rest assured, I will use a secret technique at that time. Even if I can't kill that old ghost Chen, I can severely injure him and shorten his lifespan!"

The patriarch of the Lu family said in a deep voice to the patriarch of the Bai family.

Compared to the Lu family, the Bai family's situation would be slightly better, and they could still retreat.

So if he wanted to continue fighting, he had to stabilize the patriarch of the Bai family.

"Good, since Brother Lu says so, I will continue fighting!"

The patriarch of the Bai family nodded.

He also didn't want the Chen family to become too powerful.

He hoped that the patriarch of the Lu family would take the patriarch of the Chen family with him before he died.

Suddenly, the three Foundation Building cultivators exchanged glances and began to attack the formation in front of them, accelerating the breakthrough of the grand formation.

"Everyone, form a formation!"

Chen Jia's ancestor shouted loudly.

Let each Chen family disciple simultaneously use their cultivation to merge with the formation, resisting the attacks.

But the battle between the Lu family and the Bai family was well-prepared, with thorough preparations.

Not only did they distribute a large number of talismans to attack the disciples of both clans.

They also prepared many forbidden-breaking talismans, constantly weakening the restrictions of the formation.

At this time, the formation masters of the Lu family and the Bai family also began to manipulate the external formation, attempting to disrupt the second-level formation in Hongye Valley.

"No, if this continues, it will be difficult for me to hold on until Zheng Dao-you arrives."

Chen Jia's ancestor knew that under the current circumstances, it would be difficult to rely on the formation to persist until Zheng Jia's ancestor arrived.

Moreover, if they continued to stalemate, their own and their clan's spiritual power would be continuously consumed by the formation.

By the time the formation was broken, he would also suffer and be unable to escape calamity.

"Meng Dao-you, I will fulfill our agreement now!"

Chen Jia's ancestor made a decisive decision.

He planned to give up defending the formation.

He and Meng Xiaochan would rely on themselves to hold on until Zheng Jia's reinforcements arrived.

As soon as he finished speaking,

he presided over the formation and caused a huge heavy hammer to appear in the sky above the second-level formation, resembling a glass jade bowl.

It heavily smashed towards a flying boat in the southeast direction.

"Hmm!? What does Chen old ghost want to do?"

"Does he want to break through the defense and escape?"

"Not good, it's in the direction of the Fourth Elder!"

The ancestors of the Lu family, the Bai family, and Lu Yuanzhong were all shocked when they saw this scene.

They didn't expect Chen Jia's ancestor to launch a counterattack at this moment.

They thought he was going to tear through their defense and escape, so they quickly flew towards the southeast direction.

"Not good!"

And in the southeast direction, on the flying boat, the Fourth Elder was commanding everyone to break the formation.

When she saw Chen Jia's ancestor suddenly manipulating the formation and launching an attack towards them, her face changed drastically.

She patted her storage bag, activating and using a stack of life-saving talismans.

They were all top-grade talismans, turning into layers of golden light to protect everyone.

And she also sacrificed a blue treasure bead, flying into the sky and radiating a brilliant light, trying to block this towering heavy hammer!

Lu Changsheng's face also changed when he saw this scene.

He didn't expect that the Chen family would suddenly counterattack when things were going smoothly.

And it happened to be attacking towards his side.

He could clearly feel the horror of this attack.

This was no longer an ordinary Foundation Building cultivator's strike.

With the first-grade talismans of the Fourth Elder, it was probably difficult to block!

At this moment, Lu Changsheng couldn't care about hiding his clumsiness.

Take out the only second-grade intermediate defense talisman on his body and directly activate it.

In an instant, a thick golden divine light burst out from the talisman, turning into a golden light shield that enveloped the entire flying boat, giving off a sense of invincibility.

"Hmm? This is a second-grade talisman!?"

The four elders were shocked when they saw the talisman Lu Changsheng used, recognizing it as a second-grade talisman.

They didn't expect Lu Changsheng to actually have a second-grade talisman.

Without waiting for them to think too much,

"Boom!"

The giant hammer in the sky had already come crashing down.

It directly smashed the blue gem that the four elders had sacrificed into powder, causing their faces to turn pale and let out a muffled groan.

"Boom boom boom—"

The giant hammer continued to fall, quickly shattering the defense formed by the several life-saving talismans of the four elders in a few breaths.

Only the light shield formed by Lu Changsheng's second-grade intermediate talisman remained slightly sturdy for a moment.

And in that instant, Lu Changsheng activated another second-grade low-grade talisman, turning it into a layer of golden light shield.

The four elders also didn't have time to be surprised or think too much. They once again sacrificed several talismans from their storage bags, activating and using them to form a defense.

"Hmm?"

Chen Family Patriarch was also somewhat surprised when he saw this scene.

He thought that with his attack, he would easily be able to kill the people on the flying boat.

He didn't expect that these people actually had so many talismans.

And they even had second-grade talismans to protect themselves.

"Kill!"

Chen Family Patriarch's expression turned fierce.

He continued to draw power from the formation, intending to kill Lu Changsheng and the others.

However, at this moment, Lu Yuanzhong and the Lu Family Patriarch also arrived.

The two of them saw the four elders and Lu Changsheng fighting desperately, immediately sacrificing their spiritual weapons, casting spells, and blocking the formation's giant hammer.

At the same time,

Inside the formation, Meng Xiaochan watched this scene.

Watching Chen Family Patriarch controlling the formation and attacking Lu Changsheng, there was no trace of satisfaction in her heart.

She tightly held her chest, feeling extreme pain, unable to breathe, her heart felt like it was being twisted by a knife, tears streaming from the corners of her eyes.

"Quick, quick!"

She could feel the lock of the love gu, the affection in her heart, gradually causing her to lose her rationality.

The last trace of sanity in her heart urged Chen Family Patriarch to quickly kill Lu Changsheng.

But in the next moment, under the influence of the love gu, the overflowing affection in her heart finally made it impossible for her to maintain her clarity and rationality.

"No! Lu Lang!"

Meng Xiaochan suddenly looked up, let out a long howl, and with tear-filled eyes, she looked at Chen Family Patriarch who was about to attack Lu Changsheng, a strong killing intent filled her heart.

She suddenly soared into the sky and rushed towards Chen Family Patriarch who was controlling the formation.
