Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family

He didn’t offer his own magic artifacts because, apart from the Green-Face Sword and a few others, all were of high-grade or exquisite quality, which Li Feiyu couldn’t utilize.

“Okay, I’ll just owe you then.”

Li Feiyu, looking at Lu Changsheng’s expression, took a deep breath and nodded earnestly.

Then he said with a carefree attitude, “Don’t worry, Li Feiyu began adventuring through the world at the age of twelve, traveling to all corners; it’s not that easy for me to stumble and fall.”

“Just to repay this debt, I will also make sure to live well.”

Li Feiyu said this.

Subsequently, the two chatted for a long time.

More than a decade of cultivation life had many memories worth reflecting upon.

Especially since this might be the last time the two of them talked.

The next day, Li Feiyu called Hong Yi over, and the three of them had a meal together before parting ways.

At the moment of departure, Hong Yi also presented a lower-grade Flying Sword to Li Feiyu, advising him to take good care of himself.

“Sigh.”

Lu Changsheng watched Li Feiyu’s retreating figure and sighed deeply.

His heart was laden with the heavy feeling associated with life’s separations and death’s finality.

“With the Talisman and Puppet by his side, and relying on Feiyu’s own strength and means, he should be able to fight against cultivators at the Energy Refinement Late Stage, or at least escape.”

“Moreover, in the Cultivation World, anything can happen. From cliff-diving to find treasures to accidentally entering the secret realm of an ancient cultivator’s cave, who knows, Feiyu might just stumble upon an opportunity.”

Lu Changsheng consoled himself in his heart.

He didn’t indulge too much in sorrow or sentimentality.

He discussed with Hong Yi about the Red Leaf Valley Market.

It would be almost half a year before it would be completed and open.

He had already alerted the Lu Family about the matter of the market’s entry spots.

However, as for the shops, only ordinary ones with mediocre locations were available to them.

The desirable shop locations had been mostly retained by the four major families or allocated to other powers.

Lu Changsheng learned that to establish the Red Leaf Valley Market, the Lu, Bai, Yu, and Zheng families had all invested a great deal of thought and energy.

Not only had they made expenditures to appease Qingyun Sect, but they had also semi-gifted some shops and cave dwellings to certain powers.

To this, Hong Yi minded not the slightest.

Because for the better shops, the Ruyi Marquis’s Mansion lacked enough Spirit Stones and simply couldn’t afford them.

If it weren’t for the light cast by Lu Changsheng, they might not have even secured such an ordinary shop.

…

In the blink of an eye, another two months had passed.

On this day,

The Second Elder sought out Lu Changsheng and informed him that he must immediately return to the Family.

The Lu Family Ancestor had passed away!

“The Ancestor has passed away.”

In the past, Lu Changsheng had seen hints of the deathly aura upon the Lu Family Ancestor and knew his end was near.

But he hadn’t expected it to come so swiftly, so suddenly.

Recalling how just a year ago this elder had presided over his wedding, he couldn’t help but feel emotional.

“The Ancestor had always hoped to see the Red Leaf Valley Market completed, to take a good look at it, but sadly, he didn’t make it to that day.”

The Second Elder said with a sad expression.

Those high within the Lu Family ranks understood the Lu Family Ancestor’s health more acutely than Lu Changsheng.

After the great battle at Red Leaf Valley, the Lu Family Ancestor knew his days were numbered and had started making arrangements for after his demise.

His only lingering regret was his wish to see the Red Leaf Valley Market.

Yet in the end, the Lu Family Ancestor did not live to see that day.

Soon after, Lu Changsheng followed the Second Elder and several Lu Family Disciples back to Qingzhu Mountain.

The Lu Family Disciples gradually returned to Qingzhu Mountain.

All over the mountain, everyone’s mood was somber with sorrow.

Cultivation families are maintained through the bonds of blood and kinship.

All of the Family Disciples, from a young age nurtured by the family, practicing cultivation, marrying, bearing children, spreading branches and leaves, all on this land.

And the Lu Family Ancestor was the sky within the hearts of all Lu Family Disciples.

Now with the Ancestor’s passing, it was natural for all to be engulfed in profound grief.

Several days later, in the Lu Family ancestral hall,
