Lu Miaoyun looked at her husband in this state, and tilted her head adorably as she said,
“Yun’er feels wronged.”
Lu Changsheng didn’t care about his wife’s jesting and gently embraced her, whispering softly,
“Husband.”
Lu Miaoyun hugged Lu Changsheng, resting her head against his chest.
She indeed had come to terms with Lu Changsheng taking more wives and concubines.
But to say she felt no grievance at all was certainly impossible.
Or rather, when Lu Changsheng had only bought some maids, she didn’t mind.
But if Lu Changsheng truly married Lu Miaoge and Lu Miaohuan, it was certain that neither woman would become a concubine.
Under such circumstances, she would inevitably feel somewhat jealous as his wife.
“If husband really wishes to marry Sister Miaoge and Sister Miaohuan, he could ask the Family Ancestor to grant the marriages,”
Lu Miaoyun said softly as she snuggled against Lu Changsheng’s chest.
Though she felt a little jealous,
considering that even a Foundation Building Great Cultivator behaved that way towards her husband,
who knew whether her husband would marry other women in the future.
Rather than that, it was better for her husband to marry her sisters instead.
At least they were family, well-acquainted, and capable of living together harmoniously.
“Yun’er.”
Lu Changsheng was even more remorseful hearing his dear wife giving him advice at this time.
He made up his mind that he must properly compensate Lu Miaoyun in the future.
…
Night fell.
“Changsheng, Yun’er, come back with me.”
The busy Fourth Elder and two family elders prepared to steer the Flying Boat, taking some of the disciples and the wounded back to Qingzhu Mountain first.
Hearing this, Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoyun promptly boarded the Flying Boat, returning with the Fourth Elder.
After all, there was nothing left for them to do in Red Leaf Valley.
It was better to return and rest sooner.
“Grandmother, are those two Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators from Bi Lake Mountain Yu Family and Wugong Ridge Zheng Family?”
Once the Flying Boat set off, Lu Changsheng asked the Fourth Elder.
Although he had already guessed that the two Foundation Establishment Cultivators were from the Yu and Zheng families,
he still wanted to confirm it with the Fourth Elder, to understand the current situation.
“Yes, those two Foundation Establishment Cultivators are indeed Bi Lake Mountain Yu Family’s Foundation Establishment Ancestor and the Zheng Family Ancestor from Wugong Ridge,”
the Fourth Elder nodded and said.
“The Yu Family has wolfish ambitions. We had already noticed the Yu Family’s interference during the disputes between the Lu and Chen families.”
“Now it seems, many incidents from back then cannot be separated from the Yu Family.”
“Changsheng, we were fortunate to have you this time, prompting Elder Meng to help us out. Otherwise, we would have truly let the Yu Family profit from our misfortune,”
the Fourth Elder continued, with a tone mix of indignation and relief.
She was very clear.
If it hadn’t been for Meng Xiaochan’s intervention, allowing the Lu and Bai families to quickly break the Great Formation,
and the two family ancestors only suffering injuries,
today they would have most certainly fallen victim to the Yu Family’s ploy.
“The Yu Family,”
Lu Changsheng muttered, nodding slightly.
He thought of the time when the Third Young Master of the Yu Family had tried to recruit him,
and the incident where Lu Miaoge was attacked by four Robber Cultivators, as well as his and the Second Elder’s encounter with an ambush on the way back.
At that time, he had obtained a Yu Family token from the three Robber Cultivators and felt that the attackers were sent by the Yu Family, yet he was not certain.
Now, hearing the words of the Fourth Elder, he knew in all likelihood it was the Yu Family’s doing,
aimed at weakening the Lu Family’s power,
as well as deepening the animosity and friction between the Lu and Chen families so they could profit from it.
“Grandmother, what’s the situation now?”
Lu Changsheng continued to ask.
“The Yu Family, though tyrannical and overbearing, does not wish to completely fall out with our Lu and Bai families and come to blows,”
“But this matter won’t just end peacefully; the current situation involves our Lu and Bai families conceding some interests to the Yu Family,”
“As for the specifics, Grandmother is not clear; we must wait for the Family Ancestor to make a decision,”
the Fourth Elder explained.
Hearing this, Lu Changsheng nodded in understanding.
He realized that’s how the matter was settled.
What followed would be the division of interests.
“While the Lu Family has two Foundation Establishment Cultivators, our overall strength is far inferior to that of the Yu Family,”
“Now the Lu Family Ancestor doesn’t have much time left, but the Yu Family’s two Foundation Establishment Cultivators have quite a few years ahead of them,”
“Previously, the Third Young Master of the Yu Family mentioned that within ten years, the Yu Family would have a third Foundation Establishment Cultivator,”
“If they really do produce a third Foundation Establishment Cultivator, I’m afraid the Lu, Bai, and Zheng families would have to form an alliance,”
Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but think to himself.
He felt if the Yu Family truly produced a third Foundation Establishment Cultivator, there would likely be no peace,
and it wouldn’t be so easy for him to lie low as he wished.
“I still need to achieve Foundation Establishment sooner to truly gain a foothold,”
“If the Yu Family really causes trouble later on and affects my development, I might as well use the Book of Malevolent Curses and Fates against them,”
Lu Changsheng pondered.
“Changsheng, can you still contact that Elder Meng?”
At that moment, the Fourth Elder asked Lu Changsheng.
“Grandmother, I did not keep a contact method with Miss Xiao Chan,”
Lu Changsheng shook his head slightly,
understanding that probably the Fourth Elder wanted him to invite Meng Xiaochan to stand by and deter others,
giving the Lu Family more confidence and weight in the upcoming hearings and profit distribution.
But he truly didn’t have any way to contact Meng Xiaochan,
“No matter, Grandmother was just asking,”
the Fourth Elder responded with a slight nod, without further comment.
She could tell there was something unusual about the relationship between Lu Changsheng and that Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator,
It was only because of the current situation of the Lu Family that she had asked,
hoping that through Meng Xiaochan, a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator, the Lu Family could alleviate some of the pressure.
After all, the upcoming division of interests was simply a matter of strength.
Under the full-speed flight of the Spirit Boat.
