Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family-Chapter 1066 - 235: Xiao Xiyue: Why is Master together with Changsheng... (3)

The two trembled violently and dared not say more, obediently following Song Qingzhi back to Red Sun Peak.

...

Caiyun Peak.

"Greetings, Master."

Xiao Xiyue looked at her master and Lu Changsheng standing before her, bewildered.

What’s going on?

How is Master together with Changsheng?

"From now on, he will be Caiyun Peak’s Visiting Noble Servant. Xiyue, take him to the Record Hall for registration."

Yun Wanshang did not explain much to her disciple, tossing out a handwritten decree and speaking curtly.

After finishing her statement, she left Lu Changsheng behind and returned to her own palace. Ads by PubFuture

"Changsheng, how did you end up with Master...?"

Xiao Xiyue’s beautiful eyes carried confusion as she looked at Lu Changsheng, trying to understand how he managed to be brought into Qingyun Sect by her master.

Although her master knew of Lu Changsheng, the two had supposedly never interacted before.

Besides, hadn’t Master been in closed-door cultivation all these years?

"Xiyue, this is a long story...."

Lu Changsheng had anticipated this scenario long ago, and he immediately adopted a dreamlike, reflective demeanor as he recounted his acquaintance with Yun Wanshang.

He described how, fifty-six years ago, while traveling between Nine Dragons Market and Qingzhu Mountain, he had witnessed a fierce battle in the distance and quickly hid.

After waiting for the battle to subside for a long time and preparing to leave the dangerous area, he encountered a heavily injured Nascent Soul Immortal.

At the time, he did not recognize Caiyun True Immortal but still chose to treat and save her.

Afterward, Caiyun True Immortal gave him a token, stating that if he encountered danger, he could activate the token or come to Qingyun Sect to seek her help.

"However, all these years, I haven’t encountered any major trouble, so this token had remained unused."

"A few days ago, due to Ping’an’s issues with the Sima Family, the Sima Family invited disciples of the Chiyang True Immortal, who came to Bi Lake Mountain carrying Chiyang True Immortal’s decree, and so I thought about the token."

"I figured that using the favor from back then might allow me to establish a solid connection within Qingyun Sect."

"But I never expected that the person I saved would turn out to be your master, Caiyun True Immortal."

Lu Changsheng spoke earnestly, mixing truth with lies, full of emotion.

"Fifty-six years ago..."

Xiao Xiyue suddenly recalled that back then, her master had indeed gone out to refine the Red Dust Elixir for her and returned with a somewhat unstable aura, as if she had been injured.

However, hearing that Lu Changsheng had saved her master, Xiao Xiyue felt a trace of oddness in her heart.

Years ago, she herself had been saved by Lu Changsheng.

Her senior sister had also escaped danger thanks to Lu Changsheng’s intervention, saving her life.

And now it seemed that her master had also been rescued by Lu Changsheng...

Could it be that all three of them—the master and her two disciples—had been saved by Lu Changsheng?

Moreover, Xiao Xiyue vaguely felt that her master’s relationship with Lu Changsheng wasn’t that simple.

She recalled how, years ago, when she had asked her master to approve her union with Lu Changsheng, her master’s attitude—and Lu Changsheng’s affairs with Lady Meng at Qingyun Sect—had seemed strange.

"Actually, I vaguely guessed years ago that the person I saved back then was Caiyun True Immortal, but I wasn’t sure."

Lu Changsheng knew Xiao Xiyue to be sharp and perceptive. She might deduce something about his connection with Yun Wanshang.

Reaching out, he gently held Xiao Xiyue’s delicate hand and said proactively, "I remember you once mentioned that True Immortal has some minor grievances with Red Sun Peak."

"And Caiyun True Immortal’s token—I really don’t have much use for it now. So I thought this would be a good opportunity to confirm."

"If things go well, not only can we resolve the troubles with Red Sun Peak and secure a strong support for the family within Qingyun Sect, but I can also use this chance to gain an official affiliation with Caiyun Peak."

"This will make visits to Qingyun Sect easier, allowing me to assist you with your cultivation technique issues."

"Moreover, with this favor from the past, if I perform well, it will be much easier for us to request True Immortal’s approval of our union in the future."

Lu Changsheng’s voice was gentle and filled with deep affection.

Although his words, upon closer inspection, had some inconsistencies, he wanted Xiao Xiyue to notice them now and prepare herself mentally for what was to come.

"Changsheng..."

Xiao Xiyue was cultivating the Supreme Forgetful Love Technique, a method that would normally make her quick to discern discrepancies in such situations.

Yet, whenever she was with Lu Changsheng, the technique seemed ineffective.

Especially now, with Lu Changsheng activating his Enchanting Demon-like aura, even Xiao Xiyue found herself subconsciously influenced, not reflecting deeply, trusting Lu Changsheng wholeheartedly, and feeling touched.

After chatting for a while, Xiao Xiyue then led Lu Changsheng to register his Visiting Noble Servant status.

If it were for an Honorary Elder, the Qingyun Sect Leader’s approval was required.

However, for a Visiting Noble Servant, the approval of the respective peak’s Peak Master would suffice.

"That shameless scoundrel! Full of lies!"

Within the palace at the peak, Yun Wanshang used her Divine Sense, her expression both anxious and indignant, as she listened to Lu Changsheng and Xiao Xiyue’s conversation.

Seeing Lu Changsheng deceitfully gazing affectionately at her disciple, her frustration burned deeply.

Yet, upon hearing Lu Changsheng claim he could help Xiao Xiyue resolve her cultivation technique issue, she was somewhat surprised and puzzled.

She knew perfectly well the intricacies and profundity of the Supreme Forgetful Love Technique. Once cultivated, it led down an irreversible path unless abandoned entirely.

But now, Lu Changsheng claimed he could resolve Xiao Xiyue’s issue with the technique?

How could he have such confidence?

Could he be lying to Xiao Xiyue again?

However, Yun Wanshang felt that Lu Changsheng’s words might not be entirely baseless.

Moreover, Xiao Xiyue was pure-hearted;though emotionally swayed now, surely she couldn’t keep being blindly deceived.

"Could it be that this scoundrel truly has a solution..."

Yun Wanshang pondered deeply as she thought about Lu Changsheng’s various peculiarities.

She had always known that Lu Changsheng possessed extraordinary opportunities and secrets.

But with time and deeper understanding, she found herself increasingly struck by how unique and extraordinary those secrets were, far beyond those of an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator.

"If this scoundrel can truly solve Xiyue’s problems..."

Yun Wanshang suddenly recalled the fifty-year agreement Lu Changsheng had made with her years ago.

If he and Xiao Xiyue could both break through Core Formation within fifty years, she had promised to approve their union.

She had even outright stated that if they succeeded in reaching Core Formation, she would personally host their Dao Companion ceremony.

Thinking back now, Lu Changsheng actually had considerable hope for a breakthrough into Core Formation.

As for Xiao Xiyue, as long as she could overcome her emotional tribulations and sever her connections to sentiment, reaching Core Formation was not an issue.

At this moment, Yun Wanshang faintly sensed that Lu Changsheng had deliberately set her up back then!

"That despicable scoundrel!"

Thinking of this, Yun Wanshang felt a surge of frustration, her pale hand clenched tightly.

"Junior Sister Caiyun..."

At this moment, Yun Wanshang heard a deep, resonant voice—the Qingyun Sect Leader.

A moment later, Yun Wanshang transformed into a stream of rainbow light, flying from Caiyun Peak toward the main hall of Qingyun Sect’s main peak.
