Chapter 68 Ershun Filial Piety
The good news is.
Li Erqing's ninth son, Mu Jiu'an, was taken in as a disciple by a real person passing by while he was out picking herbs.
The identity of the real person is so mysterious that Li Erqing's father and son have never heard of him in Liang.
Lu Changan's first reaction was not that Mu Jiu'an had good chances, but that it was fishy, or that the letter concealed certain details. Mu Jiuan's qualification is close to the top grade spiritual root, which is indeed good, but not so good that it would make the JieDan real person particularly moved.
Most of the people who have achieved false dan are those who started out with a top-grade spiritual root.
For those who have achieved true dan, many of them have Earth Spiritual Roots.
In the eyes of a real person, a top-grade spiritual root is not a scarce resource.
"Could it be that Mu Jiuan is harboring a hidden innate treasure body? Or, there is something hidden in this matter......"
Lu Chang'an pondered.
The Innate Treasure Body was too rare, Lu Changan had only seen a few cases in his previous life.
Mu Jiu'an, was taken away by that real person.
Lu Chang'an had no difficulty in guessing: the real person took away the disciple, and most likely had to give Li Erqing, the father, a little favor.
"This guy, he ate another wave of benefits of having a baby."
......
Bad news in the letter.
After years of hard work, the Huang family finally joined forces with the Imperial Beast Zhou family and befriended one or two of the veins.
What's worse.
The Zhou Family and the Zhuo Family have clashed, and their affiliated Immortal Cultivation Clans have gone to war.
The Zhou family's energies have been tied up, and the Mu family of Fei Yue Lake, which is at the edge of their influence, is somewhat beyond their reach.
This is very unfavorable to the Mu family.
"The Maple Leaf Huang Family has taken every step to gain understanding by first favoring the Royal Beast Zhou Family. Subsequently, it also drew the Zhou Family together through the bond of interest in the marketplace, until it joined with one or two of the veins in marriage years later."
Lu Changan had run a family in his previous life and had a premonition of the tactics of the person at the helm of the Huang family.
The Huang family's strategy did not happen overnight.
It was reached subconsciously through a long period of twenty to thirty years.
The Bamboo Leaf Mountain Market is a key part of the process, generating huge profits for the Huang Clan, and there is enough financial support to carry out many of the plans.
Steady business, hibernation for twenty to thirty years.
The Huang Clan is now more powerful than ever, and the fourth Foundation Builder has been born.
Now, finally waiting for the opportunity!
Once the conflict between the Zhou Clan and the Zhuo Clan escalates, I'm afraid they won't have time to care about Lake Fei Yue.
......
When Li Erqing wrote this letter, his cultivation had already reached the ninth level of Qi Refining, and he had broken the rules to become an Elder of the Mu Family.
At the end of the letter, he said:
His second son, Mu Ershun, will bring a gift to Huanglong Immortal City to honor Lu Changan.
After reading the letter, Lu Chang'an realized the potential crisis of the Mu family in Fei Yue Lake.
Li Erqing's life change is quite dramatic.
From being a farmer, to joining a family of Immortal Cultivators, in a few decades, he has mixed up to become a family elder?
His life experience can be written into a biography.
"From a peasant family to a family of Immortal Cultivators".
Lu Changan even thought of the name of the biography, it's eye-catching enough. With a few more erotic episodes, it's sure to be a bestseller.
......
Two months later.
A thick-browed, big-eyed and simple-looking young man stepped on a flying boat and arrived at the mountains in the northern part of Liang.
"This is the Yellow Dragon Immortal City!"
The young man's face was shocked as he looked at the majestic crystal yellow city covering hundreds of miles in his vision.
Compared to it, Fei Yue Villa was like a small grasshopper.
The passing cultivators, occasionally accompanied by the light of the Foundation Establishment Stage, made his heart skip a beat.
"It's much more prosperous than the Bamboo Leaf Mountain Market! No wonder Uncle Lu abandoned his family and came here to seek opportunities."
Entering the Immortal City, the young man looked left and right, his eyes wide open.
The young man looks similar to Li Erqing, it is Mu Ershun.
After inquiring along the way, Mu Ershun entered the inner city of Huanglong and found the residence of Golden Cloud Valley.
"Excuse me, is Lin Lu in?"
Mu Ershun asked the Golden Cloud Valley cultivator guarding the gate.
Not long after, a young man walked out of the compound.
The young man was thin and had a short beard under his jaw. When he saw Mu Ershun, he hesitated for a moment.
"Are you Mu Ershun?"
"Haha! I haven't seen you in all these years, but brother Lin still recognizes me at a glance."
Mu Ershun laughed brightly.
"Brother Ershun still has the same elegance, how could I not recognize him? I have long wanted to go to Bamboo Leaf Mountain to visit Brother Ershun."
Lin Lu was slightly more attentive, and there was no trace of his arrogance from back then.
Twenty years ago, when they were teenagers, they first met at the store in Bamboo Leaf Mountain.
At that time, Lin Lu, as a disciple of the clan, did not like Mu Ershun, who was an apprentice. Until the early death of his father, his life was at a low point.
Lin Lu decided to resume his relationship with his father's former friend.
A decade ago, when he was at his worst, he went to Bamboo Leaf Mountain and borrowed a spirit stone from Mu Ershun.
After coming to Huanglong Immortal City, the two sides have occasionally exchanged letters.
"Brother Ershun is here to visit Uncle Lu, right? I'll show you the way, and have a cup of tea at my house on the way."
After going to the garrison to ask for instructions, Lin Lu took Mu Ershun and flew him to Jinxiu Fang.
Lin Lu's housing was right between the Golden Cloud Valley Residence and Lu Chang'an's residence.
Lin Lu was a little bit nervous when he was confronted by Mu Ershun, who was a bright and friendly person.
"Ershun came to Yellow Dragon Immortal City to be the first to look for me, it wouldn't be to collect a debt, would it?"
The spirit stones he owed Mu Ershun had not been paid back yet.
It wasn't that Lin Lu was deliberately delinquent.
In the past few years, he got married and settled down in Huanglong Immortal City, so his expenses have increased.
His wife said that renting was unstable, so they bought the house they were renting and owed twenty years of installment debt.
Huanglongxiancheng has regular money changers, but the interest rate is not low.
Nowadays, Lin Lu tightened his belt to live a tight hand.
Lin Lu doesn't want to buy a house, but his wife comes from an Immortal Cultivation family in the city, with a rich dowry, and she is stronger than him.
......
The way to Lin Lu's home.
"Brother Ershun, this is my wife Li Qiuyue."
Lin Lu introduces both parties.
"Sister Qiu, this is my closest friend Mu Ershun, a senior mid-grade talisman master."
"Good day, younger sis! This is a token of appreciation that I brought at the behest of my father."
Mu Ershun surveyed Lin Lu's wife, her looks were mediocre, not as pretty as his own daughter-in-law.
He took out fifty spirit stones and a talisman box.
"Brother Ershun! This is not acceptable--"
Lin Lu was ashamed in his heart and hurriedly excused himself.
He thought Mu Ershun was here to collect a debt, but he didn't want to send a generous gift.
"Brother Ershun! This gift is too heavy!"
Li Qiu Yue's eyes lit up and she nimbly took the spirit stone and talisman box, glancing at Lin Lu unexpectedly.
That look seemed to say: you, a poor man, still have such a generous friend?
When the two of them got married, Lu Chang'an only sent thirty spirit stones and a few medium-grade talismans.
Li Qiuyue is a rare virtuous tea and water.
Mu Ershun finished his tea and went to Uncle Lu's house.
Lin Lu accompanied and led the way, lamenting: "I've been alive for more than 30 years, and only then did I realize the intention of my father's dying will. If I had been half as practical as Uncle Lu, practiced hard, and stayed away from women, I wouldn't still be at the bottom of the clan."
Lin Yi's dying advice: to learn from Uncle Lu's steadiness, low-key and down-to-earth.
Over the years, Lin Lu regretted not listening to his father's last words.
Mu Ershun praised: ''Uncle Lu is indeed admirable, not marrying and having children for decades, outstanding talismanic skills, but low-key and pragmatic. My father once said that Uncle Lu is our family's nobleman."
"Uncle Lu is able to be on the same level as two Foundation Establishment cultivators, Uncle Zhao and Uncle Zhang, and this kind of ability is difficult for ordinary cultivators to reach."
Lin Lu served in the Golden Cloud Valley Residence and knew more about Lu Changan.
......
A quarter of an hour later.
Mu Ershun and Lin Lu arrived at the Water Moon Residence.
They were greeted by a pure and pretty blue-skirted maid.
Mu Ershun was staggered: the maid of Uncle Lu's family is far better looking than his own mother-in-law, and can be compared to his young mother Mu Caiwei.
In the courtyard, a bushel-sized tortoise is perched at the edge of the pool.
When it sees a stranger, the turtle's round eyes look at it with curiosity, and it is very cute and adorable.
"Earth Grade Spirit Beast, Xuan Shui Turtle."
Mu Ershun's heart stirred, thinking of certain rumors in Bamboo Leaf Mountain.
Entering the house.
A warm and serene, long and elegant man in white, came into view.
"Little nephew, greet Uncle Lu!"
Mu Ershun bowed respectfully.
After more than ten years, seeing the familiar figure that does not age in years again, he was so excited that his eyes were moist.
