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

Chapter 135: My Cultivation with the Fairy!

Under Hong Yi's envious gaze, Lu Changsheng and Xiao Xiyue left.

"I wonder how Xiao Daoist friend is planning to travel this time?" Lu Changsheng asked Xiao Xiyue.

Since he had agreed, he naturally couldn't just let the other party stay in his house or in the city without any care.

He had to show some hospitality.

"To travel far and wide, observe the lives of mortals, and experience the hustle and bustle of the mortal world," Xiao Xiyue said softly.

Her words were not entirely false.

Indeed, the cultivation of the Supreme Forget Love Technique required such experiences.

However, she had skipped this step with the help of the Mortal World Pill.

But the Mortal World Pill was ultimately an external object and did not completely satisfy her state of mind.

"The lives of mortals, the hustle and bustle of the mortal world," Lu Changsheng nodded thoughtfully.

He felt that the cultivation technique the other party was practicing was not simple.

After all, ordinary cultivation techniques like the Return to Origin Technique and the Eternal Spring Technique did not require any state of mind.

Only cultivation techniques of the Profound level or above would have such requirements.

That was why the higher-level cultivation techniques were more difficult to cultivate and had higher thresholds.

"I wonder if Lu Daoist friend has any suggestions," Xiao Xiyue asked calmly.

"I don't have any good suggestions, but in the next few days, I can accompany Xiao Daoist friend to explore the secular world," Lu Changsheng said. "Then we can go to the cultivation market."

"If Xiao Daoist friend wants to hunt demonic beasts or explore secret realms, I'm afraid I won't be of much help due to my low cultivation level," he added.

In the cultivation world, many people would choose to hunt demonic beasts or explore secret realms when they encountered bottlenecks.

By honing themselves between life and death, they could see through the great terror between life and death, stimulate their potential, and break through bottlenecks.

Although Xiao Xiyue was not in this situation, he had to make it clear.

"Thank you for your trouble, Lu Daoist friend," Xiao Xiyue nodded gently.

Then she looked at Lu Changsheng and asked calmly, "Lu Daoist friend has a youthful appearance. Is it because you cultivate wood or water-based techniques?"

She still didn't know why she felt a tremor in her heart and the Supreme Forget Love Technique automatically activated when facing Lu Changsheng.

But looking at Lu Changsheng's handsome face, she couldn't help but speculate whether it had something to do with the cultivation technique he practiced.

Because Lu Changsheng's appearance, temperament, and aura had changed drastically.

Although it had been thirteen years, she almost forgot what Lu Changsheng looked like back then.

But she vaguely remembered that he was ordinary in a crowd.

But now, even with her discerning eyes, she had to admit that Lu Changsheng was extremely beautiful.

Not only was he beautiful in appearance, but his skin, figure, and temperament were all perfect.

It was very pleasant to look at, and it evoked a sense of closeness and goodwill.

Xiao Xiyue naturally knew that there were many wood and water-based techniques that had the effect of preserving youth and beauty.

But in the Qi Refining stage, ordinary techniques definitely couldn't achieve the effect that Lu Changsheng had.

"Yes, I only have a ninth-grade mixed spiritual root, so I chose to cultivate a wood-based health-preserving technique," Lu Changsheng said. "As for the preservation of youth, I also took some youth-preserving pills."

Lu Changsheng said without blinking an eye, his heart not speeding up.

He had already come up with this kind of explanation.

And because of the cultivation of the Immortal Beauty Technique and the Peach Blossom Gu, he really looked like someone who cultivated a wood-based youth-preserving technique.

But Xiao Xiyue's inquiry made him a little more vigilant.

He suspected that this Fairy Xiyue had seen something from him.

After all, he was very aware of the changes in his appearance and temperament.

If someone was observant, they would be able to see something.

That's why he usually concealed this aura with treasures.

Otherwise, after so many years, the cultivation of the Immortal Beauty Technique and the effect of the Peach Blossom Gu would be enough to make him attractive to mortal women with just one glance.

It also had a considerable impact on cultivators.

"I didn't expect Lu Daoist friend to pay so much attention to appearance," Xiao Xiyue nodded slightly, her tone carrying a hint of teasing.

She found that when she was with Lu Changsheng, her state of mind was no longer as calm as usual, like a bright moon in the sky, without any ripples.

This also made her realize that she could use this to temper her state of mind.

"Since we are cultivating immortality, we naturally need to have the appearance of an immortal," Lu Changsheng said casually. "After all, with my talent and aptitude, I have no hope of achieving the Great Dao in this life, so I can only focus on this aspect."

"The path of cultivation is afraid of losing confidence. If Lu Daoist friend has a glimmer of faith, there will inevitably be a trace of hope," Xiao Xiyue said as she looked at Lu Changsheng.

"Lu Changsheng learned his lesson."

Lu Changsheng slightly bowed, knowing that the other party meant well and didn't want to argue about such matters.

They continued to chat as they walked and arrived at the Lu family mansion.

"Daddy!"

In front of the mansion, Lu Xile sat on a small stool, eating candied hawthorns.

Seeing Lu Changsheng return, she immediately stood up excitedly and shouted.

Then the little girl's gaze shifted to Xiao Xiyue and she asked, "Daddy, is this the new aunt?"

"Fairy Aunt, hello, my name is Lu Xile."

The little girl looked at Xiao Xiyue with an adorable face and said in a sweet voice.

"Cough, this is Daddy's friend."

"You can call her Aunt Xiyue."

Upon hearing his daughter's words, Lu Changsheng lightly coughed twice.

He didn't blame the child for speaking without restraint.

Then he looked at Xiao Xiyue and said, "Xiao Daoist, please don't mind."

"It's alright, Lingyuan is very cute."

Xiao Xiyue shook her head slightly.

Her face still had that cold and proud expression, but her tone carried a hint of gentleness.

She gracefully adjusted her moon-white dress, squatted down with a graceful posture, looked at Lu Xile, and asked with a soft gaze, "Little sister, how old are you this year?"

"Um, I'm ten years old this year!"

Lu Xile bit off the half-eaten candied hawthorn in one bite.

Then she handed it to Xiao Xiyue and said, "Aunt Xiyue, Daddy said there's a guest coming, and we should treat them well. I invite you to have some candied hawthorn."

Xiao Xiyue was slightly taken aback.

She couldn't help but think of herself when she was young.

There was a time when she was just like the little girl in front of her, lively and fond of eating candied hawthorns.

With a gentle expression on her face, she opened her tempting lips and took a bite of the half-red candied hawthorn from the little girl's hand.

"Mmm, it's delicious."

Xiao Xiyue touched Lu Xile's head and said, her serene state of mind showing a ripple.

This made her even more certain in her heart that Lu Changsheng was her chance to break through the Shattering Void realm and transcend her current state of mind.

A sparkling moon-white jade pendant appeared in her hand, which she handed to Lu Xile, saying, "This is a gift from Auntie."

Lu Xile didn't accept it and looked at her father.

"Since Auntie gave it to you, you should accept it."

Lu Changsheng said.

He could tell that this jade pendant was not an ordinary one, but a spiritual jade.

As for the price, he couldn't tell at a glance.

But since it was for his child, he didn't refuse.

He also knew that Xiao Xiyue was expressing her gratitude for troubling him by giving gifts to the child.

"Thank you, Aunt Xiyue!"

The little girl happily accepted the jade pendant.

She saw that the jade pendant was translucent and beautiful, and she liked it very much.

Then she became even more enthusiastic in talking to Xiao Xiyue.

She asked if Xiao Xiyue had eaten and wanted to take her to play.

Faced with the enthusiastic little girl, Xiao Xiyue didn't refuse and went along with it.

Lu Changsheng saw this scene and didn't say anything.

He let his daughter chat and stroll with her.

"What's the situation with this Xiao Daoist?"

Seeing Lu Xile and Xiao Xiyue leave, Lu Changsheng narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself.

Through their conversation along the way, he could almost confirm that Xiao Xiyue had some ulterior motives.

Asking him to accompany her on a journey was definitely not as simple as traveling the mortal world without a destination.

She must have some purpose in mind.

He believed that Xiao Xiyue's trip down the mountain was to travel the world, temper her heart in the mortal realm, and find an opportunity to break through.

But saying that she had no destination and asking him to accompany her made Lu Changsheng feel a bit forced.

After all, as a disciple of the Foundation Establishment stage of the Qingyun Sect, how could one go on a journey without a destination?

There must be someone who would directly plan for her or accompany her.

Even Hong Yi seemed more suitable for this journey of experiencing the mortal world than himself.

This reason was the most strange and barely acceptable to Lu Changsheng.

But along the way, Lu Changsheng had been observing Xiao Xiyue.

He noticed that Xiao Xiyue's gaze often fell on him, as if she was sizing him up.

And he keenly sensed that Xiao Xiyue's gaze, tone, and demeanor were changing.

This change was very subtle, and he didn't know how to describe it.

If he had to say, it was that she wasn't as cold and indifferent as before.

When he saw Xiao Xiyue for the first time today when he went to meet the three of them with Hong Yi, he could tell at a glance that she exuded a sense of purity and coldness all over her body.

Like a fairy in the sky, calm and indifferent, making people dare not approach.

As they arrived at Ruyi Tower, everything remained the same.

It was only after chatting for a while that Xiao Xiyue's indifference gradually dissipated.

At that time, Lu Changsheng noticed that Xiao Xiyue was sizing him up, but he didn't think much of it.

When Xiao Xiyue suggested that he accompany her for a while, Lu Changsheng became more cautious and observed her along the way, confirming that she must have some kind of purpose for him.

"Wait, when we're together, her expression and attitude change. How should I interpret this situation?" Lu Changsheng's mouth twitched.

He suddenly felt like a goddess was interested in someone, which was why she let down her usual aloofness.

"Although I have great charm now, it shouldn't be to this extent." Lu Changsheng rubbed his chin.

He was a person who had a good understanding of himself.

He knew that his current charm had a significant impact on the opposite sex.

But it shouldn't be enough to make someone like Xiao Xiyue, a fairy-like beauty, fall in love at first sight and actively pursue him.

"Could it be..." Lu Changsheng had a sudden realization.

His mind stirred, sensing the Peach Blossom Gu in his brow.

He wanted to see if this thing had brought him good luck again.

After all, his relationship with Xiao Xiyue was just average.

Now that she had come down the mountain for a journey and showed such unusual behavior, he couldn't help but speculate if it was due to good luck.

"Buzz..." The Peach Blossom Gu in his brow faintly reacted, transmitting a thought.

It seemed to be telling Lu Changsheng that it was indeed good luck.

"Wow!" Lu Changsheng received the feedback from the Peach Blossom Gu and couldn't help but exclaim.

He understood that Xiao Xiyue's abnormal behavior was indeed related to good luck.

This made him momentarily at a loss for words.

But it also put his mind at ease.

He knew that Xiao Xiyue's request for him to accompany her was not malicious or for some ulterior motive.

"However, this good luck is not easy to come by." Lu Changsheng took a deep breath and exhaled lightly.

It was impossible for him to have no thoughts about Xiao Xiyue.

After all, this Xiao Fairy not only had a stunning appearance but also possessed a fourth-grade spiritual root.

She even had some kind of spiritual body.

If she were just an ordinary disciple of the Qingyun Sect, there might be some hope.

But she was not an ordinary disciple.

She was a disciple of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

With such status and position, if he let her bear his children, it would likely cause trouble.

After all, being accepted as a disciple by a Foundation Establishment cultivator meant that she had exceptional talent and high expectations from the sect, focusing solely on cultivation.

If she were to bear a few children, it would delay the good times in the early stages.

Perhaps the Qingyun Sect would sever their ties to prevent their disciples from being entangled in worldly affairs and even kill him.

Then his good luck would turn into a calamity.

Therefore, Lu Changsheng was well aware that he couldn't handle a woman like Xiao Xiyue at the moment.

On the other hand, under the guidance of Lu Xile, Xiao Xiyue met Lu Changsheng's other wives and children.

She knew that Lu Changsheng had married many wives and had many children.

But when she saw so many wives and children at once, she was still somewhat surprised.

However, she didn't know that these twenty-plus children were only a small part of them.

After parting ways with Lu Changsheng and spending some time chatting and playing with Lu Xile and a few children, Xiao Xiyue found her state of mind gradually becoming calm and indifferent again.

Returning to her usual state of transcendent tranquility.

"It seems to be true." Xiao Xiyue murmured to herself, her eyes clear as water, calm and serene.

She could almost be certain that only Lu Changsheng could help her break through the Shattering Void realm and advance.

As for how to break through, she had some thoughts in her mind.

When she was by Lu Changsheng's side, her state of mind would be influenced, causing the Taishang Forget Emotion Art to automatically operate.

If she could remain unaffected, maintaining a tranquil and indifferent state of mind no matter what, it would mean that she had achieved a breakthrough in the Shattering Void realm and reached a state of great tranquility.

However, she still needed to confirm it further.

In this way, Xiao Xiyue stayed in the Lu Mansion.

Lu Changsheng originally planned to return to Qingzhu Mountain after the gathering.

But because of Xiao Xiyue, his plans changed.

He spent time taking Xiao Xiyue around Ruyi County, observing the so-called vicissitudes of life and worldly troubles.

Lu Changsheng didn't know exactly what these worldly troubles were.

And Xiao Xiyue couldn't explain it clearly either.

So, considering her scholarly background and her entry into the Qingyun Sect for cultivation at the age of fifteen, he decided to show her some of the hardships and lower-class life.

Like a woman forced to sell herself in a brothel.

Street vendors on every corner, ruffians and beggars with physical disabilities.

Dock workers, doing hard labor.

Restaurants, teahouses, and hotels, with all kinds of customers.

Jianghu factions, fighting and killing each other for their own interests.

On this day, Lu Changsheng brought Xiao Xiyue to a village in Ruyi County.

It was a very poor and backward village.

The yellow earth stretched to the sky, with potholes on the muddy road.

On both sides of the road were farmlands.

The crops in the fields had already been harvested.

But you could still see some emaciated farmers, weak and wearing tattered clothes, carrying baskets and picking up leftover grain in the fields.

Among them were some women who had just given birth, carrying infants who were crying for milk, their faces extremely haggard.

When they saw Lu Changsheng and Xiao Xiyue, their eyes showed a humble and fearful expression, with forced smiles on their faces.

"Alas."

Lu Changsheng looked at this scene and sighed deeply.

He didn't know how Xiao Xiyue was feeling these days.

But the hardships of this world weighed heavily on him.

He felt a sense of gratitude and fear, panic.

He was grateful for having spiritual roots and gaining immortal opportunities in the past.

Being able to go to Qingyun Sect and participate in the examination for entry into the immortal sect.

Otherwise, as a peasant-born boy, even if he awakened his memories and had a system, it would still be very difficult for him.

It would take a lot of time, energy, and effort to struggle out of this lower class.

"Friend Xiao, have you gained anything in these few days?"

Lu Changsheng sighed slightly and asked Xiao Xiyue.

Seeing all the hardships, it made him cherish his current life even more and gave him the motivation to strive.

"All beings suffer."

Xiao Xiyue said softly.

These days, she had seen a lot with Lu Changsheng and gained a lot of insights.

But she could feel that these insights didn't help her breakthrough much.

It mainly depended on Lu Changsheng.

But through these days of getting along, Xiao Xiyue's heart was also immersed in the influence of Lu Changsheng.

Whenever the two of them were in close contact, Xiao Xiyue felt herself surrounded by a spring breeze, shaking her mind, and activating the Supreme Forgetfulness Technique.

But she also realized that this alone was not enough to make her capable of Shattering Void and breaking through her mental state.

She understood that she needed to go further with Lu Changsheng.

To experience the so-called "emotional tribulation" in order to truly temper her mental state, achieve great enlightenment, and be capable of Shattering Void and Supreme Forgetfulness.

"You have worked hard these few days, Friend Lu."

Xiao Xiyue looked at Lu Changsheng and spoke up.

Her voice was no longer as cold, but much gentler.

Then the two of them returned to Ruyi County and prepared to go to the Immortal Market tomorrow.

Night fell.

Since they were leaving tomorrow, Lu Changsheng naturally spent a good time with his wives and concubines.

At the same time.

Xiao Xiyue sat cross-legged in her room.

Her mind was in chaos, unable to sleep, and unable to enter a state of cultivation.

"Emotional tribulation."

Xiao Xiyue understood that she needed to use Lu Changsheng to temper her mental state and be capable of Shattering Void.

But at the same time, these days had also troubled her with Lu Changsheng's influence.

Although her mental state had improved, she was sinking deeper and deeper, and she had to rely on the "emotional tribulation" to achieve great enlightenment.

She activated the Supreme Forgetfulness Technique to suppress her distracting thoughts.

She walked out of the room, her skirt fluttering, landing on the rooftop, quietly looking at the bright moon in the sky.

Moonlight sprinkled, bathing her pure white long dress, her flawless body, making her even more sacred and noble, like the goddess Chang'e in the moon palace.

The night breeze gently blew, lifting the corner of her moon-white dress, revealing her ivory-like round and slender legs, without a trace of excess flesh, naturally perfect, exceptionally beautiful.

The wind also blew the fairy's black hair.

Strands of black hair and the moon-white dress swayed in the wind, dancing with the wind, expressing the current mood and state of the owner.

Her moon-like beautiful eyes absentmindedly looked towards a courtyard in the mansion.

"Ah!"

Xiao Xiyue took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

She understood that if she didn't have the enlightenment in her mental state, she would never be able to cultivate the Supreme Forgetfulness Technique.

Immediately, a resolute look appeared in her eyes as she floated towards Lu Changsheng's courtyard.

She was ready to directly tell him that she needed to experience the "emotional tribulation" in order to completely achieve Shattering Void.

Instead of just observing the worldly phenomena and being disturbed by the mundane.
