Cultivation: the Rise of a Live-In Son-In-Law-Chapter 227 - 225: Northern Territory’s Number One Female Cultivator, Red Cloud’s Stubbornness, "Lu Ye, Have You Ever Met the Hermit Grandmaster?

Chapter 227: Chapter 225: Northern Territory’s Number One Female Cultivator, Red Cloud’s Stubbornness, "Lu Ye, Have You Ever Met the Hermit Grandmaster?

The situation of the Jiang Family is unclear to others, but the Red Cloud Fairy knows it.

The ancestor has long been severely injured, and now perhaps... is no longer alive.

Now that she has descended, as long as she shows some attention to Lu Ye, the Jiang Family, even if uncomfortable, likely won’t dare to continue targeting Lu Ye.

In that case, the resentment of the young man who was sent away for a political marriage... should also diminish somewhat.

...

"What? The Red Cloud Sect Leader has come, and wants to see me?"

When a maid hurriedly came to report, Lu Ye frowned slightly in the small courtyard.

This woman appeared outside Cloud Leaf City last night, and today she actually came to the Jiang Family.

And explicitly wants to see him?

"Red Cloud Sect Leader?!" Beside him, Jiang Qingge, hearing the disturbance, also came out, somewhat shocked.

This name to her is truly as well-known as thunder to the ears!

In the Northern Territory, the weight of what this name represents is immense!

Seeing Lu Ye frown, seemingly unwilling to go, Jiang Qingge was nearly dumbfounded.

The Red Cloud Fairy specifically requested him, and he seemed not too eager to go?

That night outside the city, struck by the power of moonlight, Jiang Qingge fainted in advance and did not see Lu Ye’s lack of courtesy towards the Red Cloud Fairy.

"Let’s go... I’ll go with you." Jiang Qingge tugged at Lu Ye’s clothes and whispered.

...

The Jiang Mansion’s main hall.

Seeing the two figures walking side by side, seemingly quite familiar, Jiang Lianshan smiled and said, "Here you are? Lu Ye, the Red Cloud Sect Leader has come from afar, and as a disciple of the Red Cloud Sect, the Sect Leader has always been thinking about you."

At this moment, the resting Red Cloud Fairy slowly opened her eyes.

Looking at the seemingly perfectly matched couple, the Red Cloud Fairy lightly nodded and said, "You’re here? You haven’t returned to the sect for a long time; if you have time, you can visit the sect."

"As long as you are a disciple of the Red Cloud Sect, the sect will always be your shield."

After speaking, her eyes, faintly carrying authority, swept over Patriarch Jiang and the elders who dared not breathe loudly.

Jiang Lianshan immediately gave a sheepish smile. By now, how could he not see that the Red Cloud Fairy, busy as she usually is, came to the Cloud Leaf Jiang family...

It seems to somewhat support Lu Ye, the disciple sent out for marriage!

However... by now, Jiang Lianshan had already accepted this son-in-law.

A few days ago, Jiang Lianshan also learned that Lu Ye had instructed the Jiang Family’s guard team, and his strength was actually at the Postnatal Second Layer Realm!

This kind of son-in-law, how could Jiang Lianshan be dissatisfied?

"Cough cough..."

As the words fell, the Red Cloud Fairy suddenly coughed a few times, with a faint trace of paleness appearing on her face.

Seeing this, Jiang Lianshan quickly said, "Sect Leader, this is..."

"It’s nothing, I went to the Black Tide Forbidden Land some days ago and tangled with a Tier Four late-stage vicious beast, got a bit injured." The Red Cloud Fairy calmed down, her tone indifferent.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Lianshan couldn’t help but inhale sharply.

No wonder she is the number one female cultivator in the Northern Territory, leading the Red Cloud Sect!

A Tier Four late-stage fierce beast is also comparable to a Grandmaster late-stage power!

Such a beast, even if the whole Jiang Family banded together, wouldn’t be enough for it to hit.

Yet in the Red Cloud Sect Leader’s mouth, it seemed quite understated, as if not worth mentioning!

Meanwhile, Lu Ye’s expression turned a bit odd.

Went to the Black Tide Forbidden Land... and ended up fighting a Tier Four late-stage fierce beast?

Why does it feel like she was attracted by the commotion from his breakthrough last night, came to inspect... and then was beaten by Youluo?

Of course, Lu Ye knew that being a leader of a sect, saving face is quite normal.

...

After about ten minutes, having declined Jiang Lianshan’s invitation to stay for dinner, the Red Cloud Fairy looked at Lu Ye with a calm tone. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"If you’re not busy, would you accompany me for a walk?"

Lu Ye’s brow imperceptibly furrowed a bit.

Bringing this up in front of everyone, the Red Cloud Fairy knew that he couldn’t possibly refuse the Red Cloud Sect Leader’s request in front of so many people.

After all, by any account, their statuses are not equal.

So, Lu Ye nodded to agree: "Alright, I’ll accompany the Sect Leader for a walk."

Watching the Red Cloud Fairy gracefully leave, Lu Ye followed, and Jiang Lianshan finally let out a sigh of relief.

After letting the Jiang Family elders leave, Jiang Lianshan asked Jiang Qingge to sit down.

Moments later, Jiang Lianshan was puzzled: "When this son-in-law first came to the Jiang Family, wasn’t it said that he was just a servant disciple? Why would the Red Cloud Sect Leader suddenly take an interest in a servant disciple?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qingge pondered for a moment and also shook her head.

This did indeed seem strange.

"Forget it, the thoughts of such great figures are not something we can fathom," Jiang Lianshan spread his hands and said, "In any case, as long as the Red Cloud Sect is around, this relationship will be enough to support us until the Jiang Family produces another in the Innate Realm."

Jiang Qingge’s eyes moved slightly, she felt that at this pace...

Given a year... perhaps she truly has a chance to touch what was once only a distant hope of the Innate Realm!

When Wang Xingluo sent someone to deliver a gift to the Jiang Family, he himself walked in cheerfully, only to learn from Jiang Lianshan that the Red Cloud Sect Leader had already left.

It was only a matter of ten minutes or so.

Wang Xingluo was somewhat regretful that he didn’t get to meet the Red Cloud Sect Leader.

Yet somewhat glad, it seemed she wasn’t here because of the mysterious disappearances in the city, having nothing to do with him.

...

Outside the city.

In the city, the Red Cloud Fairy ultimately still drew too much attention, her aura clearly not that of an ordinary person, and her looks were unparalleled.

In case someone recognized her again...

So, the two directly came to a grassy area outside the city.

"My presence today, I believe, will ensure that no one in the Jiang Family dares to belittle you again."

The Red Cloud Fairy, with hands behind her back, said softly, "Lu Ye, do you still refuse to admit that you are a disciple of the Red Cloud Sect?"

"As long as the Red Cloud Sect exists, with this identity... if the Jiang Family bullies you, feel free to seek me out."

Hearing this, Lu Ye’s eyes didn’t show the slightest change.

He didn’t know what had gotten into the Red Cloud Fairy, to come and say such things to him, a former servant disciple.

Could it be, after being beaten by Youluo, her state of mind changed?

Not caring that Lu Ye didn’t respond, the Red Cloud Fairy pondered for a moment, then asked, "By the way, have you heard any news about a Hermit Grandmaster during your stay in the city?"

"No," responded Lu Ye reflexively, then, thinking about it, asked: "Why, does the Red Cloud Sect Leader have business with the hermit great power?"

The Red Cloud Fairy replied, "Indeed, there is business."

As for her venture into the Black Tide Forbidden Land, finding the Dual Divine Fruit, and plans to allocate a sect secret realm slot, she didn’t mention further to Lu Ye.

After all, although she wanted Lu Ye to explicitly acknowledge himself as part of the Red Cloud Sect,

The main reason was being a sect leader, apart from those expelled, the Red Cloud Fairy, with a strong belief in expanding and advocating the sect’s glory, didn’t want to hear any disciple denying their association with the sect.

And other matters were unrelated to a small disciple like Lu Ye.

Seeing the Red Cloud Fairy’s expression, Lu Ye speculated that she indeed had matters to seek a Hermit Grandmaster.

Furrowing his brow slightly in thought, Lu Ye had already devised a plan.

"Alright, Red Cloud Sect Leader, I need to return to cultivate, so I’ll take my leave," Lu Ye said before turning to leave, "As for the hermit grandmaster you mentioned, I don’t know where they are, but..."

Upon hearing this, the Red Cloud Fairy’s heart moved slightly; when conversing with others, the most feared words are indeed "but."

"But what?"
