Chapter 788: Chapter 291: Foundation Establishment Celebration, Zhao Qingqing’s Initiative_1

Half a month later,

Hong Yi arrived at Bi Lake Mountain.

This chapter is updat𝙚d by freeweɓnovel.cøm.

He had also received an invitation from Zhao Qingqing.

Therefore, this trip to Bi Lake Mountain was to prepare to visit Qingyun Sect together with Lu Changsheng.

He also took the opportunity to visit his son, Hong Xuanji.

...

“You won’t need much longer to break through the Sixth Level Energy Refinement!?”

Hong Yi felt both surprised and delighted upon hearing his son’s words.

His son, now twenty-three years old, was about to break through to the Sixth Level Energy Refinement.

This pace of cultivation had already surpassed most of his peers.

It should be known that he himself was still at the cultivation level of Sixth Level Energy Refinement.

“Yes, and Uncle Lu has allowed our family to teach me an Exquisite Level Cultivation Technique,”

Hong Xuanji said to his father in a quiet voice.

“An Exquisite Level Cultivation Technique…”

Upon hearing these words, Hong Yi was inwardly shocked.

Though the father and son had exchanged letters, the son had not mentioned this matter in his letters.

Now, hearing it for the first time, he was at a loss for words.

“With such kindness from Brother Lu, I, Hong Yi, have no way to repay.”

Hong Yi felt deeply moved, not expecting the other party to take such good care of his son.

Thinking of their thirty years of acquaintance, and how he owed much of his current achievement to Lu Changsheng’s support, he spoke solemnly, “Xuanji, you concentrate on your cultivation and responsibilities at Bi Lake Mountain.”

“If there is anything, you can ask your Quanzhen brother for advice and write to your father,”

Hong Yi so instructed.

Since Lu Quanzhen had experienced the secular world in his early years, Hong Yi always encouraged his son to keep company with Lu Quanzhen, and the two had a very good relationship.

“Your son understands,”

Hong Xuanji responded in a low voice.

He resembled his father, Hong Yi, in appearance.

But compared to Hong Yi in his youth, he lacked a bit of haughtiness and possessed a bit more steadiness.

When Lu Changsheng found out that Hong Yi was coming over, he went to the guest hall to greet him.

“Brother Lu!”

“Uncle Lu.”

Both of them promptly said with respect.

“Ha ha, Brother Hong, Xuanji.”

Lu Changsheng, in a green robe, smiled and appeared casual and at ease.

“Xuanji has been causing Brother Lu trouble these years.”

Hong Yi politely said to Lu Changsheng.

He was dressed in a purple brocade and wore a Purple Gold Crown, and having long been accustomed to a life of dignity and high position, he carried an aura of authority without anger.

Yet in the presence of Lu Changsheng, he unconsciously took a very humble posture.

“Ha ha, Brother Hong, you’re too courteous. Xuanji has performed quite well over the years, and there’s no trouble at all,”

Lu Changsheng said as he waved his hand.

Since Lu Quanzhen had gone out into the world, Hong Xuanji had taken on a leadership role in the wine brewing workshop, and he was quite capable in both personal conduct and skill.

Moreover, Lu Changsheng had learned from his wife Qu Zhenzhen that, due to the relationship with Lu Quanzhen, his daughter Lu Caizhen and Hong Xuanji had grown quite close.

Straight away, the two men sat down to catch up and chat.

“Who would have thought that among the six of us back then, three would become Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators? Such an achievement is enough for me to boast for many years; I have no regrets in this life,”

Hong Yi said with a smile, remarking with emotion.

It was beyond his expectations that, thirty years ago, six of them were selected to join the Qingyun Sect for the Immortal Sects assessment.

As time passed, three of them consecutively broke through to Foundation Establishment.

“Brother Hong is still young. If you focus on cultivation, perhaps you too can break through to Foundation Establishment,”

Lu Changsheng noticed Hong Yi’s cultivation level, at the Sixth Level Energy Refinement.

If he put in the effort, he had a chance to attempt Foundation Establishment by the age of sixty.

Although the hope of successfully establishing his foundation was very slim.

“Brother Lu jests; how could I dare to dream of such a thing as Foundation Establishment,”

Hong Yi said with a shake of his head and laughter.

Though there were three Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators around him,

such an endeavor still seemed out of reach for him, and he dared not covet it.

Currently, even a High Rank Breakthrough Elixir was too costly for him to consider buying without hesitation.

Besides, now that his son, Hong Xuanji, proved to have such promise, if he, as a father, could save up a considerable sum of money, his son might have a future chance to break through to Foundation Establishment.

“Heh heh…”

Lu Changsheng chuckled and didn’t dwell on the topic.

He was aware that after becoming the Marquis of Ruyi, Hong Yi gradually lacked ambition in cultivation.

Furthermore, given the other’s age and Spiritual Root, unless there was a major fortuity, there indeed wasn’t much hope for Foundation Establishment.

After briefly catching up, they stayed at Bi Lake Mountain for two days before heading to Qingyun Sect.

…

Three days later,

a Flying Boat descended in front of the gates of Qingyun Sect.

Lu Changsheng took out a Transmission Talisman.

Not long after, a verdant Escape Light flew from the gate, enveloped in the spiritual pressure of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

“Greetings, Martial Uncle!”

“Greetings, Martial Uncle!”

The disciples guarding the gate promptly offered their respects upon seeing the newcomer.

Although they didn’t necessarily recognize the person,

In Qingyun Sect, Energy Refining Cultivators addressed Foundation Establishment Cultivators as Martial Uncle as a matter of course.

“Lu Daoist, Hong Daoist,”

The newcomer was Zhao Qingqing.

Her skin was fair, her figure tall and graceful, wearing a green-colored dress, with her long, silky black hair neatly gathered, and with a Plum Blossom Jade Hairpin slanting across it. Her beautiful features were adorned with a gentle smile.

After breaking through to Foundation Establishment, her charisma was exceptional. Her entire being exuded a vibrant and fresh aura of flourishing plants and grass, elegant like an orchid in a secluded valley, touching the soul.

“Zhao Daoist, congratulations on your breakthrough to Foundation Establishment,”

Lu Changsheng and Hong Yi bowed with their hands folded and then offered the congratulatory gifts they had prepared.

“Thank you both, Daoist Friends. Please, this way,”

Zhao Qingqing accepted the gifts and looked at Lu Changsheng with a tender gaze.

It is customary to adjust one’s state thoroughly after a breakthrough to ensure the vitality, energy, and spirit are abundant, and one’s thoughts are clear.

At the time of her breakthrough, she had questioned her deepest heart and had come to understand many things more clearly.

Then, the three of them entered the gate and came to a mountain peak filled with ancient pines and green cypresses, cascading waterfalls, and palaces reaching thousands of feet high where they descended at the waist of the mountain.

“This Spirit Vein of Qingyun Sect is truly grand,”

Lu Changsheng remarked, eyeing the many peaks of Qingyun Sect, guessing each must contain at least a Second Rank Spirit Vein, and he couldn’t help feeling envious.

Zhao Qingqing’s modest Foundation Establishment celebration was to be held at her own abode.
