Chapter 350: Chapter 157: The Effect of the Seven Luminaries Heart Lamp, Elder of the Nine Bags_3
The problem is that this son is too lively and always needs to be watched over.
Unlike his daughter Lu Qingzhu, who is usually quiet and well-behaved, not causing any fuss, very clever.
“Alright, since you want to go, let’s go together,”
Thinking that he rarely spent time with the child, Lu Changsheng still nodded in agreement.
Seeing that Lu Changsheng intended to take both children, Lu Yuanding also mentioned that he just happened to be visiting the Red Leaf Valley Market and would accompany Lu Changsheng.
Although the Red Leaf Valley Market was relatively close, he was still somewhat worried about the two children, who were not yet four years old, being taken out by Lu Changsheng alone.
Hearing this, Lu Changsheng naturally couldn’t say anything.
With Lu Yuanding there, at least someone would help look after the children, saving him from a headache.
Soon after, the two men each carried a child and rode the Iron Feather Eagle to the Red Leaf Valley Market.
…
Half a day later, the two arrived at the Red Leaf Valley Market.
The Red Leaf Valley Market now had a much larger crowd than before.
Lu Yuanding told Lu Changsheng that the four big families plan to hold an auction every year starting next year, to attract more loose cultivators.
He also hoped that by then, Lu Changsheng could bring out some top-quality Supreme Talismans for the auction.
“An auction, good,”
Lu Changsheng nodded upon hearing the news.
Now that the Red Leaf Valley had been open for three years, the flow of people had reached a small bottleneck.
To attract cultivators to come, naturally something had to be offered.
Otherwise, with a security guarantee like Red Leaf Valley Market’s being average, and lacking big shops from the Qingyun Commerce Guild or Myriad Treasures Pavilion to settle in, the appeal was indeed limited.
As the two talked and walked, they arrived at the ‘Lu Family’s Spiritual Talisman Shop’ of Qing Zhu.
“Dad, Changsheng,”
Lu Miaoge smiled when she saw Lu Changsheng and Lu Yuanding arrive, carrying the two children.
Immediately after, the group, along with the children, strolled around the market, enjoying themselves.
After wandering around for a long time and finishing their meal, Lu Yuanding gave the couple some space and took the two children back to the Lu Family’s compound.
Since Red Leaf Valley was initially divided by the four big families, the Lu family got the lion’s share, taking up almost forty percent.
So for the Lu Family people in this Red Leaf Valley Market, there was no shortage of places to stay.
“Changsheng, that Miss Xiao has come over again and is staying in the cave dwelling you used before,”
Back at the Spiritual Talisman Shop, Lu Miaoge said to Lu Changsheng.
“Sister Miaoge, thank you for the trouble,”
Lu Changsheng responded warmly upon hearing this.
Having stayed in the Red Leaf Valley Market for half a year previously, Xiao Xiyue was already known to Lu Miaoge.
Furthermore, with Lu Miaoge’s intelligence, she surely realized that the relationship between the two was not simply about cultivation.
“Changsheng, has Miss Xiao successfully reached Foundation Establishment?”
Lu Miaoge inquired.
From some information previously mentioned by Lu Changsheng, she knew about Xiao Xiyue’s attempt at Foundation Establishment.
But Xiao Xiyue was reticent in nature, and since Lu Miaoge was not one to talk much either, even if they had interacted, they did not really chat.
“Yes, she has successfully reached Foundation Establishment, but she still needs some of my help for her subsequent cultivation, which is why she has come over again,”
Lu Changsheng explained.
“Foundation Establishment.”
Lu Miaoge’s face showed a trace of envy and yearning upon hearing of Xiao Xiyue’s successful Foundation Establishment.
As a child of a cultivating family, raised from an early age to aim for Foundation Establishment, achieving it was the dream of all of them.
However, most of them gradually realized that Foundation Establishment was too far out of reach.
Lu Miaoge was aware that even though there was a slight chance of reaching Foundation Establishment, it was very slim.
“Sister Miaoge, I have a gift for you,”
Lu Changsheng, seeing the expression in Lu Miaoge’s eyes, knew well how her heart was set on cultivation and dreamt of breaking through to Foundation Establishment one day.
He then took out a porcelain bottle from his Storage Bag.
“A gift?”
Lu Miaoge said with a smile as she took the porcelain bottle to examine it.
“Is this… Three Suns Elixir?”
Looking at the elixir inside the bottle, Lu Miaoge showed a look of surprise and doubt.
“That’s right, it is indeed the Three Suns Elixir, also known as the ‘minor Foundation Establishment Elixir,'”
“Sister Miaoge, taking this Three Suns Elixir should allow you to break through directly from the Eighth Level of Energy Refinement to the Ninth Level,”
Lu Changsheng said with a smile.
He had also prepared a Foundation Establishment Elixir for Lu Miaoge, so there was no need to wait until Qi Refinement reached perfection before taking this elixir.
Taking it now would yield the same effect.
“You should keep this Three Suns Elixir for yourself,”
Lu Miaoge said with a gentle smile, her lovely and graceful appearance particularly charming.
Although she didn’t know where Lu Changsheng had acquired this Three Suns Elixir, she was aware of its preciousness.
If put on the market, one pill would be worth at least three to four thousand Spirit Stones.
Even though she was a Top-Level Talisman Master, she couldn’t afford such a valuable elixir.
After all, not all Talisman Masters were like Lu Changsheng, possessing a one hundred percent success rate in talisman making.
Moreover, she didn’t need to spend Spirit Stones on materials for practicing Talisman Making.
“I have already taken one, and this one is specifically for you, Sister Miaoge,”
Lu Changsheng said with a smile.
He had guessed that Lu Miaoge would refuse, so he had prepared his response.
“This… Changsheng, thank you,”
Lu Miaoge said, gazing into Lu Changsheng’s eyes that shimmered with tenderness, and she didn’t refuse any further.
“Between husband and wife, there is no need for thanks,”
Lu Changsheng chuckled and continued, “If Sister Miaoge plans to enter closed-door cultivation after taking the elixir, I can manage the shop.”
“Father and Qing Zhu, Qing Shan have all come here, let’s talk about it later,”
Lu Miaoge said softly.
As she spoke, it seemed she remembered something and added, “Oh, right, your good friend Li Feiyu came by earlier, but he didn’t wait for you to return, so he left some things for me to give to you.”
“Things?”
Lu Changsheng was somewhat surprised to hear this.
In a little while, Lu Miaoge took out a Storage Bag from the room and handed it to Lu Changsheng.
Lu Changsheng opened the Storage Bag and saw that it contained a pile of Spirit Stones.
Almost two hundred Spirit Stones.
There was also a letter.
He opened the letter to read it.
“Sigh.”
After reading the letter, Lu Changsheng let out a light breath.
The letter was a farewell.
It mentioned that he had made arrangements with someone to head to Azure Phoenix Immortal City, so he wouldn’t wait any longer for Lu Changsheng; they would catch up and chat some other time.
The two hundred Spirit Stones were his current spare stones, so he wanted to pay back a portion first.
As for the remaining Spirit Stones, he would repay them after coming back from Azure Phoenix Immortal City next time.
He also told Lu Changsheng not to worry, as he would return when he had time.
Then, the letter mentioned some trivial matters and his own insights into the Cultivation World.
“Ah, Feiyu is still the same old Feiyu, not willing to owe even a little,”
Lu Changsheng sighed and shook his head.
He wasn’t in need of these two hundred Spirit Stones at all right now.
But these two hundred Spirit Stones were probably all that Li Feiyu could offer at the moment.
“Changsheng,”
Lu Miaoge also knew that Li Feiyu was one of Lu Changsheng’s few close friends.
They had come to the Lu Family together and shared a deep friendship.
“I’m fine, just feeling a bit emotional,”
Lu Changsheng shook his head slightly, not hiding the matter of Li Feiyu from his wife.
Sometimes, having someone close to talk and confide in could make one feel much better.
Since he was harboring many secrets, he would not hide ordinary matters from his wife.
“Sister Miaoge, it’s getting late,”
After talking for a long time, Lu Changsheng, gazing at his wife’s soft, beautiful, and stunning countenance, suddenly spoke.
Immediately, he supported his lovely wife’s slender shoulder and captured her full, moist, soft lips, extracting sweetness.
“Mm~ let’s go to the room…”
Lu Miaoge didn’t expect that while they were having a good conversation, her husband would suddenly turn romantic. Her eyelashes quivered slightly, then her arms encircled her husband’s neck, and she gasped, speaking in short breaths.
