Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family-Chapter 708 - : 265
Chapter 708: 265
“Good, since that’s the case, we’ll do as you suggest, Zi Xiao.”
“However, your body has not yet recovered, so don’t push yourself. The formation can wait, there’s no need to rush.”
“If the setup process involves anything related to Mount Sumeru, you can communicate directly with it.”
Lu Changsheng spoke to Ling Zixiao.
He knew that setting up a great formation was extremely draining on one’s mental spirit and energy.
Ling Zixiao had just finished setting up the ‘Inverted Five Elements Formation’.
Now she was about to set up an even more complex and troublesome ‘Divine Wood Great Formation’, which made him worry about her health.
However, from the desire he saw in her beautiful eyes, he didn’t want to disappoint her.
“Thank you, my lord. I will take care of myself,” said Ling Zixiao, her elegant face breaking into a charming smile.
“Xi Yue, Zi Xiao, now that we have Mount Sumeru supporting us, I leave the family affairs in your hands.”
“I will be heading to Red Leaf Valley Market to oversee things for a while to prevent any danger to Qingzhu Mountain or the Red Leaf Valley Market.”
Lu Changsheng said.
Although the specifics of the robber cultivators’ incident were still unclear,
he planned to stay at the Red Leaf Valley Market for a while in case anything unexpected occurred.
“My lord, rest assured.”
“Alright, Changsheng, don’t worry.”
The two women responded upon hearing this.
Then, Lu Changsheng mentioned his trip to the Red Leaf Valley Market to Lu Miaoyun, Lu Miaohuan, and Qu Zhenzhen.
Upon hearing this, Lu Miaohuan expressed a desire to visit Qingzhu Mountain and take a stroll through the Red Leaf Valley Market.
Lu Changsheng did not object and agreed to take her along the next day.

After all, the Red Leaf Valley Market was not far from Bi Shui Lake, and he needed to return periodically to treat Ling Zixiao’s condition,
especially now that she was setting up a great formation and he needed to pay even closer attention to her health.
That night,
Lu Changsheng treated Ling Zixiao throughout the night, and the next day he took Lu Miaohuan to the Red Leaf Valley Market.
Due to the robber cultivators’ incident, the Red Leaf Valley Market had seen a slight decline in foot traffic.
However, the market had been struggling for the last decade.
Ten years ago, a hard-won auction held by the four major families boosted name recognition and traffic, but a subsequent robbery by cultivators wiped out all those efforts.
And over the past decade, incidents involving the Demon Path and the families’ internal struggles meant the market’s reputation suffered, and few loose cultivators visited.
After all, when loose cultivators look for a marketplace to settle down, they generally prefer well-established and stable ones.
Despite offering many favorable policies to loose cultivators, the Red Leaf Valley Market still lacked competitiveness.
Now with some time to spare, upon arriving at the Red Leaf Valley Market, Lu Changsheng took Lu Miaohuan to inspect the family’s properties and review the situation.
The talisman shops and the fishing stores were currently doing well.
The puppet shop had opened a month ago but had little business so far.
Lu Changsheng knew that such things required time to gain a reputation, so more customers would come as the name and quality became recognized.
After all, the Red Leaf Valley Market was only so big, and most loose cultivators belonged to the lower levels of the cultivation world, so asking them to spend two hundred spirit stones on a puppet was somewhat difficult.
After staying in the Red Leaf Valley for ten days, Lu Changsheng took Lu Miaohuan back to Qingzhu Mountain and then returned to Bi Shui Lake to treat Ling Zixiao.
Ling Zixiao also presented Lu Changsheng with a formation diagram to look over.
She said she had reorganized and adjusted the formation setup of Bi Shui Lake during this time.
The ‘Oceanic Bead’ formation set with thirty-six Oceanic Beads in Bi Shui Lake was no longer linked to the ‘Heavenly Azure of Bi Shui’ formation.
As an auxiliary formation on its own, it nurtures the spirit vein fishes and shrimp in the lake, promoting the rapid advancement of the lake’s spirit vein to the second rank.
Using the principle that water nourishes wood, the spiritual vein of Bi Shui Lake was connected to the Mount Sumeru Tree King.
Once the Great Formation was established, it could harness the spiritual energy of the spiritual vein of Bi Shui Lake to nurture the Mount Sumeru Tree King.
What’s more, the hazy mist over the waters could further conceal the condition of the Mount Sumeru Tree King.
As for the ‘Bi Shui Tian Qing Great Formation’ and the ‘Divine Wood Great Formation,’ those remain unchanged.
Under normal circumstances, the Great Formation will still be the ‘Bi Shui Tian Qing Great Formation,’ with the inner core being the ‘Divine Wood Great Formation,’ both of which can be switched via the Mount Sumeru Tree King.
“This is something you can handle yourself.”
Lu Changsheng said with a smile.
He did not understand formations, but he believed in Ling Zixiao.
Besides, if there were any issues with the Divine Wood Great Formation, the Mount Sumeru Tree King would detect and sense them.
After treating Ling Zixiao, Lu Changsheng spent some time with his wives and children, then returned to Qingzhu Mountain to preside over the Red Leaf Valley Market.
Thinking back to when the Elder Ancestor of the Xu Family had asked him to craft a ‘Mystical Frost Talisman’ for Xu Ruyin, Lu Changsheng thought it had been almost three months.
He immediately drew two Mystical Frost Talismans and had the people from Zheng Family at Red Leaf Valley Market notify Xu Renguang.
Meanwhile.
Nine Dragons Market.
In a small courtyard.
“Big brother, all four families have kept their doors closed, and even when they go out, they cover their tracks.”
“I think there’s no need to delay any longer. We should take care of them soon and avenge our fifth brother.”
A middle-aged man with a fair face and a soft, sinister look said.
“Indeed, the four families combined have only five individuals at Foundation Establishment, and they’re all just straw bag cultivators at the early stage of Foundation Establishment. Aside from Lu Changsheng, who possesses a legacy of talisman formations, the others are not worth mentioning,” a bald man with a rough face and a scar on his head said with a vicious laugh.
“Second brother, I’ve investigated, and although Wugong Ridge Zheng Family doesn’t have a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, they have invited a mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator from Yu Shui Xu Family to guard the place,” Tao Xiaolan, who was dressed in a peach-colored gown, spoke up.
“Just a mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator,”
“Moreover, this Xu Family cultivator may not even wish to get involved in this mess,” the bald man scoffed, clearly undervaluing the mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.
“Indeed, there’s nothing worth dithering over. I see our fifth brother is also getting impatient these days.”
“Has there been any movement from Qingyun Sect during this time?” the red-robed big man sitting at the head of the table asked nonchalantly.
“Qingyun Sect has no time to worry about such matters. The beast tide has just ended; they must be busy,” the fair-faced, dark-browed middle-aged man snorted with disdain.
“Well then, let’s make it five days from now. It’s a good day for killing,” the red-robed man said with a sneer upon hearing this.
“Thank you, big brother!” Fang Yu’s eyes lit up with joy as he got up and bowed his thanks.
After returning to Qingyun Region, the seed of hatred in his heart had quickly sprouted, anxiously wanting to exact revenge.
Throughout these days, this seed of hatred had grown into a towering tree, causing images of his parents’ tragic deaths to frequently flash across his mind.
He knew that for these ten years, hatred had been the driving force propelling him forward, becoming his obsession, his Heart Demon; he must use this hatred to unravel the obsessions in his heart.
“Heh heh heh heh, in that case, five days from now, I will join our fifth brother in warming them up,”
“Once people from all four families gather, big brother and second brother can make their move, allowing our fifth brother to take his revenge joyfully.” The slender and shadowy figure in a black robe cackled with laughter.
