Chapter 1310: Chapter 452: Core Formation Again, Xuanjian True Monarch
Bi Lake Mountain, Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven.
After Xiao Xiyue arrived at Bi Lake Mountain, she informed Ling Zixiao, Lu Miaoge, and others about the Tianyuan Secret Realm and Lu Changsheng’s situation.
“What? Changsheng is missing in the Tianyuan Secret Realm.”
“How could this be?”
When Lu Miaoge and Lu Miaoyun heard this, their expressions grew solemn, their faces full of worry.
“Being chased by a Nascent Soul Immortal?”
Ling Zixiao frowned slightly, her expression odd.
Lu Miaoge and Lu Miaoyun might not understand Lu Changsheng’s combat prowess and have always thought their husband was mild-tempered and not adept at violence.
But she knew very well her husband’s methods.
At the initial stage of Foundation Establishment, he had deployed talisman formations to suppress and kill five Foundation Establishment cultivators.
By the late stage of Foundation Establishment, he could easily slaughter a False Core Immortal and calmly escape from a Third Rank Demon King.
Now, having broken through to Core Formation and condensed the Immortal Golden Core, you say he’s being chased by a Nascent Soul cultivator?
If anything, the Nascent Soul cultivator should be the one being chased by her husband.
“Yes, but I heard from my master that a sword cultivator appeared in the secret realm and saved Senior Sister, so I suspect that this Nascent Soul sword cultivator is Changsheng.”
“However, at the time, the situation was urgent, and Changsheng was unable to reveal his identity, so he took Senior Sister and left the secret realm.”
Xiao Xiyue continued, sharing her speculation, indicating to the other women not to worry too much.
“A Nascent Soul sword cultivator.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Miaoge and Lu Miaoyun relaxed a little, but their beautiful eyes still showed hints of concern.
“Seriously injured…”
However, Ling Zixiao’s expression grew even stranger at these words.
She thought, if this were true, wouldn’t Lu Changsheng returning mean another sister would join their ranks?
After all, given her husband’s incredible luck in romance and this classic hero-saving-damsel scenario, it seemed unlikely for the two not to develop something more between them.
Moreover, if this Nascent Soul sword cultivator truly was her husband, would he let go of this Fairy Qing Yi?
“Ling Daoist, what’s the matter?”
Xiao Xiyue felt Ling Zixiao’s gaze toward her was inexplicably strange and asked aloud.
“Nothing. My husband hasn’t left behind a soul lamp, soul plate, or any life-bound artifact at home.”
Ling Zixiao shook her head and said, “However…”
She turned towards the Cave Heaven and respectfully called out, “Senior Mount Sumeru, do you know my husband’s situation?”
The Mount Sumeru Tree King was her husband’s contracted spiritual beast, and the connection between the two might provide some clues.
“The master is unharmed…”
Mount Sumeru replied.
It had no master-servant contract with Lu Changsheng.
But the subtle connection between the two allowed it to sense that Lu Changsheng was still alive.
“Phew!”
Upon hearing this, Lu Miaoge, Lu Miaoyun, and Xiao Xiyue all breathed a sigh of relief.
They say worry blinds the mind.
Previously, they had all forgotten about Mount Sumeru’s existence.
“Thank you, Senior Mount Sumeru.”
Lu Miaoge, Ling Zixiao, and the other women expressed their gratitude.
Although Mount Sumeru Tree King was their husband’s spiritual pet, as a Third Rank Demon King, they still showed respect.
Knowing Lu Changsheng was safe calmed Xiao Xiyue considerably as she went to Changsheng Hall to retrieve Lu Changsheng’s frequently used talisman brush, preparing to return and report.
However, just before departing to fulfill her mission, she thought for a moment and decided to bring Lu Miaoge and Lu Qingxuan along to Qingyun Sect.
On the one hand, they could use the bloodline connection between Lu Qingxuan and Lu Changsheng to estimate his general situation.
On the other hand, considering Lu Changsheng had encountered trouble in the Tianyuan Secret Realm, if he delayed his return, other family forces might test or provoke them.
Lu Miaoge, as the Lady of the Lu Family, visiting Qingyun Sect and Caiyun Peak, would also send a message to the outside world, possibly serving as a deterrent.
“Miaoyun, once news of the Tianyuan Secret Realm spreads, rumors about my husband’s situation will certainly circulate among the opportunists.”
“Since the family’s commerce is just starting to gain traction, notify Lu Yun and Xingyang to prepare in advance.”
Meanwhile, Ling Zixiao also addressed Lu Miaoyun.
“Sister Ling, I understand.”
Lu Miaoyun nodded gently, responding.
Though her demeanor was fresh and lively, like a playful maiden, years of managing internal affairs for the Lu Family had shaped her into a woman of refined elegance and noble grace.
…
Lu Miaoge and Xiao Xiyue piloted their Spirit Boat and gently landed outside Qingyun Sect’s mountain gates.
“So this is Qingyun Sect?”
Lu Qingxuan looked curiously at the cloud-covered, ethereal peaks and the radiant, misty scenery of Qingyun Sect.
Bi Lake Mountain wasn’t far from Qingyun Sect, yet he had never been here.
“Yes.”
Lu Miaoge, her face gentle and her demeanor fluid like water, gave her son a brief introduction to Qingyun Sect.
However, she had only visited twice before and wasn’t very familiar with the sect herself.
“Uncle Master Xiao.”
Seeing Xiao Xiyue, the disciples at the mountain gate immediately bowed and greeted her.
“Mm.”
Xiao Xiyue’s expression remained cool and noble as she nodded slightly and led Lu Miaoge and Lu Qingxuan into Qingyun Sect, heading toward Caiyun Peak.
“Master!”
She reached the palace at the summit and paid her respects.
“Hmm!?”
Yun Wanshang, seeing Lu Miaoge outside, was struck by a strange sense of unease.
She recalled how she had cultivated the Virtuous Woman Reincarnation Technique years ago, entering the Soul Path dreams of Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge, and there… intertwined with Lu Miaoge…
Though it was merely a dream, the experience had left an impression on her.
“Sigh.”
Yun Wanshang felt a vague sense of agitation.
If Lu Changsheng were truly in danger or had an accident, she wouldn’t just be unable to face Xiao Xiyue but would also be ashamed before the Lu Family and Lu Miaoge.
“I hope that little scoundrel is alright…”
Yun Wanshang took a deep breath, suppressed her miscellaneous thoughts, and walked out of the palace.
“Greetings- Elder Caiyun!”
Lu Miaoge promptly bowed respectfully alongside her son.
“Mm.”
Yun Wanshang nodded slightly.
Taking the talisman brush from Xiao Xiyue’s hands, she raised her palm lightly and led Lu Qingxuan toward Elder Du to deduce Lu Changsheng’s situation.
As Lu Miaoge watched Caiyun True Immortal leave, for some reason, she found the departing figure vaguely familiar.
Yet she knew this was her first time meeting Caiyun True Immortal; she had never seen her before.
What do you think?
