Chapter 1469: Chapter 504: _3
“Lord, didn't you say you were going to Jin Kingdom to fetch your daughter? Is this the daughter you have with True Man Nangong?”
Ling Zixiao stood tall and elegant in a blue palace gown, her demeanor graceful and poised, and she smiled faintly as she looked at Meng Xiaochan.
Lu Changsheng: “…”
“What are you saying.”
Ling Zixiao had seen Meng Xiaochan in her early years and was aware of Nangong Mili's pregnancy, so how could she make a mistake.
Back then, at the Spiritual Pool, she simply didn't like the look of Nangong Mili and her apprentice, so she intentionally teased Meng Xiaochan.
Or perhaps to give this new 'sister' a bit of a hard time.
“Hmph.”
Meng Xiaochan, giving face to Lu Changsheng, didn't retort, but she looked at Ling Zixiao unkindly.
Though she behaved obediently and sensibly at Lu Changsheng's side.
She was no pushover to outsiders either.
Otherwise, how could she have broken through to Foundation Establishment from a loose cultivator?
And then, single-handedly traveled from Jiang Country to Jin Kingdom, joined the Five Poisons Cult, and grew to her current status.
Lu Quanzhen stood by, acting as if he didn't notice anything.
Thinking to himself, how could his father have time and energy for cultivation like this.
“Zixiao, has there been anything at home lately?”
Lu Changsheng, along with Lu Quanzhen, Meng Xiaochan, and Ling Zixiao, entered the large manor.
“Husband!”
“Master!”
“Dad, Father, Father.”
“Hey, Quanzhen brother, you're back!”
The wives and children at home were not too surprised to see Lu Changsheng.
When he was absent these days, Ling Zixiao and Lu Miaoyun would occasionally use the Thousand Faces Puppet Fox to disguise as him, so many concubines and children didn't know he was away.
“There's nothing major at home, but Qingshan and Little Bamboo came back half a year ago.”
Ling Zixiao said.
She did pay attention to family matters, but usually not the minor ones.
“Oh, Qingshan and Little Bamboo are back?”
Lu Changsheng raised his eyebrows, slightly pleased.
However, why do these two children always return home every time he goes out?
“Qingshan and Little Bamboo are still at Heming Mountain, they should be back in a few days.”
Ling Zixiao briefly talked about the situation at Heming Mountain.
“Husband, Sister Ling, hey, Quanzhen is back too.”
When Lu Miaoyun came to the large mansion, she was pleasantly surprised to see Lu Quanzhen.
She treated Qu Zhenzhen as a sister, and she had watched Lu Quanzhen grow up, treating him as a son.
“Hmm?”
But the next moment, she looked at Lu Quanzhen, and her heart skipped, noticing something amiss.
He seemed to have a strong blood fiend aura circulating all over him.
Just as her eyes glistened with a crystal light, wanting to check on Lu Quanzhen's situation, Lu Changsheng's voice sounded in her mind, gesturing for her not to.
Lu Miaoyun, who cultivated the Heavenly Longevity Technique, had refined the 'Luminous Treasure Tree' into her life-bound spiritual root.
After breaking through to Foundation Establishment, she condensed the Dao Foundation Seed, gaining the ability—the Luminous Eye, which could pierce through illusions, illusion techniques, and concealment techniques.
So at this moment, she could see Lu Quanzhen's situation.
“Mother-in-law.”
Lu Quanzhen cupped his hands in a bow.
“All these years, you never wrote back a few letters, your mother has been worried about you.”
Seeing this, Lu Miaoyun knew Lu Quanzhen must have encountered some incident, so she smiled and said.
Then she glanced at Meng Xiaochan beside her, somewhat surprised, uncertainly saying: “You are… Miss Xiaochan!”
Years ago, during the battle between Lu Family of Qingzhu Mountain and Chen Family of Red Leaf Valley, if not for Meng Xiaochan's defection, it would have been hard for the Lu Family to defeat the Chen Family.
In that battle, Meng Xiaochan eventually called Lu Changsheng “Lu Lang,” hence a few of them remembered Meng Xiaochan vividly.
“Xiaochan, this is Yun'er, Lu Miaoyun, back then…”
Lu Changsheng nodded with a smile, introducing Meng Xiaochan.
Because of past events, Lu Miaoyun had a fond impression of Meng Xiaochan and showed goodwill.
In turn, Meng Xiaochan was also very friendly, not showing at all that she was a demoness of the Demon Path.
Then, Lu Miaoyun discussed with Lu Changsheng what had happened in the family during his absence.
For instance, when Yu Fei was three months from childbirth, Lu Miaoge and the Thousand Faces Puppet Fox took her to Bi Lake Mountain, and now the child has been born.
Xia Zhizue's and Zhao Qingqing's children have already been born, but Bai Ling's unborn child has yet to be delivered.
And then, it's about Lu Xingchen, other Lu Family disciples getting married and so on.
These family trivial matters, Ling Zixiao didn't pay much attention to, but Lu Miaoyun was well-informed.
“Yun'er, Zixiao, thank you for your hard work these days.”
Lu Changsheng held his wife's hand and said sincerely.
Though he was the head of the family, he rarely got involved in family affairs except for major decisions; his wives managed everything.
Moments later, Qu Zhenzhen arrived.
“Quanzhen, you finally decided to come back, mother even thought something happened to you…”
Qu Zhenzhen looked at her son with reddened eyes.
Back then, her son said he would return after a few years of traveling.
But with his departure, it turned into over twenty years.
And besides sending back two letters at the beginning, there was complete silence afterward.
If Lu Changsheng hadn't consistently assured her that Lu Quanzhen was fine, she would have suspected that something happened to her son.
But as the years passed without any news, she even started to assume her son was like his brother, gone forever.
So at this moment, seeing her son return, she was deeply emotional.
“Mother, I'm sorry I made you worry.”
Lu Quanzhen, aware of his mother's temperament, voiced his remorse.
Though he was alone outside facing dangers, he forgot about his family who always cared for him.
“It's good that you're back. What's wrong with your complexion? Are you injured? You've gotten so skinny.”
Qu Zhenzhen watched her son's appearance, speaking with some heartache.
“When I ran into Quanzhen earlier, he had just come out of a secret realm, faced danger, and got injured. A good rest at home should mend him up.”
Lu Changsheng interjected to provide an explanation for his son.
“I knew it; traveling is not without risks. But it's good you're back, good you're back, just rest and recover at home this time, don't go anywhere.”
Qu Zhenzhen didn't nag much, speaking softly.
Then she told him about Caizhen marrying Xuanji and having a son and a daughter.
Huai Zhen and Yu Zhen also married; she asked if he had someone he fancied all these years.
Now that you're back, settle down, don't wander outside anymore. With the family's growth, there's no need to push yourself too hard…
