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

Chapter 2786: Chapter 898: Qu Changge’s Shock! (Part 2)

It’s not just that she has complex feelings towards Lu Chensha, but Lu Chensha also lacks closeness towards his mother, Xu Ruyin, who he’s seen only a handful of times since childhood.

"Sigh." Hong Lian saw the slightly awkward mother and son, and felt a sigh in her heart, trying her best to ease the relationship between them.

...

Lu Changsheng was unaware of Xu Ruyin’s matters.

He, together with Qu Zhenzhen, rode on Qu Changge’s Spirit Treasure Flying Boat and arrived at the Jin Kingdom, Yiming Ghost Sect.

"Husband, is Quanzhen here?"

Although Qu Zhenzhen knew that the Jin Kingdom is a Demon Path country,

she couldn’t help but frown as she looked at the ghostly and overcast Yiming Ghost Sect, wondering how such a place could accommodate human living.

She really disliked it, even felt a bit resistant.

"Yes, this is Yiming Ghost Sect."

Lu Changsheng knew his wife was affected by the Auspicious Tree, not fond of places with heavy yin and evil energy, so he held her hand, helping her isolate, and activated the Sensing Talisman connected to their son Lu Quanzhen.

Not long after, a rainbow light flew from the depths of Yiming Ghost Sect.

"Father, Mother? Uncle?"

Lu Quanzhen was quite surprised to see the three figures on the purple-blue Demon Boat.

He hadn’t expected his father to bring his mother along.

However, what surprised him the most was his uncle Qu Changge on the boat, dressed in a broad, dark robe with cloud patterns.

"Are you, Quanzhen?"

Qu Zhenzhen scrutinized when the young man called her mother.

At this time, Lu Quanzhen was in disguise, not his true appearance, so she didn’t recognize him at first sight.

"Mother, it’s me." The black light on Lu Quanzhen’s face fluctuated and blurred, then he removed the disguise.

Yet, he looked at his father with some confusion, not knowing why his uncle was there.

"Quanzhen, this is your uncle..."

Qu Zhenzhen immediately introduced her son with a face full of joy.

But as soon as the words came out, she paused, realizing her son recognized Qu Changge as his uncle right away.

"Eh?" Qu Zhenzhen looked at her son, then at her brother with some confusion.

"Quanzhen, long time no see." Qu Changge smiled at his nephew, and noticed he had already broken through to Core Formation.

Even though, in his eyes, breaking through to Core Formation at this age wasn’t a big deal.

But as an elder, there would always be some pride for the younger generation of his family.

"Let’s head inside and catch up."

Lu Changsheng held his wife’s hand, smiling faintly, looking forward to seeing Qu Changge’s reaction upon knowing his son’s cultivation realm.

Previously, Qu Changge had disdainfully thought he had mistreated his niece and nephew-in-law.

Now he could show him the cultivation strength of his son, Lu Quanzhen, under his careful nurturing.

"Father, Mother, Uncle, please come inside."

Lu Quanzhen immediately said, using the Array Plate to open a crack in the Great Formation, and led the three into a palace of the Yiming Ghost Sect.

"Quanzhen, do you usually live here? Aren’t you scared?"

Amidst the howling Yin wind and the misty ghost fog, even the buildings were filled with eerie cold ghost energy in Yiming Ghost Sect, Qu Zhenzhen asked her son.

If she were to live here alone, she absolutely wouldn’t!

"It’s alright..." Lu Quanzhen was somewhat speechless about his mother’s question.

"Right, Quanzhen, how do you know your uncle?"

Qu Zhenzhen continued her earlier inquiry, realizing her son and brother had something hidden from her.

Lu Quanzhen immediately thought back to when his uncle returned, and his mother was unaware.

With a calm expression, he answered, "Mother, have you forgotten? When we were young, you drew a portrait of Uncle, so when I saw him, I recognized him at just one glance."

"Oh." Qu Zhenzhen nodded, thinking that was indeed the case.

Lu Changsheng: "..."

Qu Changge: "..."

Both felt that only Qu Zhenzhen would believe so easily.

Soon after, Qu Zhenzhen showed various concerns for her son, asking about his life through the years and whether he had met any suitable, beloved women in the Jin Kingdom.

Previously, when Lu Changsheng brought Lu Quanzhen out, he mentioned looking around for any suitable women.

Although it was said casually, Qu Zhenzhen took it to heart.

Lu Quanzhen was already very adept at dealing with his mother’s concerns.

Qu Changge knew his sister was quite concerned about her nephew’s future, always hoping he could settle down.

As he saw his sister urging his nephew, he immediately aligned with her and said, "Quanzhen, you are not young anymore; if you plan to settle down, it might be good to decide early."

"If there is a woman you have feelings for, your uncle can help propose."

"And if you don’t have one yet, your uncle can introduce a few for you later."

Even if the woman in question were a Nascent Soul Cultivator, Qu Changge would be willing to help arrange a match, as long as his nephew had feelings for her.

"..." Lu Quanzhen’s face twitched, looking towards his father, hoping for a little reprieve.

However, Lu Changsheng was curious, with Qu Changge’s protective nature, about what kind of woman he would introduce to his son.

"Now, ordinary female cultivators cannot match Quanzhen." Lu Changsheng smiled faintly.

Lu Quanzhen: "???"

"Of course." Qu Changge rarely agreed with Lu Changsheng.

"?"

Lu Changsheng saw that Qu Changge did not get the meaning of his words, took a sip of tea, and said calmly, "But Quanzhen has now broken through to the late stage of Core Formation; he should prepare for Nascent Soul matters, not rush into family affairs."

"What, late stage of Core Formation?"

Qu Changge was stunned, his eyes dark and deep as he looked at his nephew.

Previously, Lu Quanzhen concealed with secret techniques and magical treasures, so he hadn’t seen through his nephew’s cultivation realm.

But now with his divine sense extended and the Heavenly Demon Pupil running, he instantly saw that his nephew’s cultivation was more than just breaking through Core Formation, having reached the Core Formation Seventh Layer.

Moreover, his mana was vigorous, and his qi-blood was surging, far surpassing the same realm, mastering dual magic and body cultivation!

"This..."

Even when Qu Changge saw his nephew’s cultivation situation, he couldn’t help but be astonished.

Back in the day, Lu Quanzhen was only a cultivator at the Sixth Level Energy Refinement.

With his help, his cultivation broke through to the Ninth Level Energy Refinement, paving the way for Foundation Establishment and Core Formation.

Now, in a hundred years, breaking through to Core Formation Stage was already commendable.

Yet, his nephew broke through from the Ninth Level Energy Refinement to the Core Formation Seventh Layer!

Moreover, his nephew was also dual cultivating magic and body, reaching the late stage of the Third Rank in body refinement.

At such age, with such cultivation and physique, even in the Demonic Sect, he would be considered a top-level genius!

Although he couldn’t compare to him.

But how many in the world could compare to him?

Meanwhile, Lu Quanzhen, upon his uncle’s scrutiny with his divine sense and gaze, felt as if he was being seen through, his heart filled with doubt and wonder.

He mused about what cultivation his uncle had.

To know, even with his Kunpeng Body, ordinary Core Formation cultivators simply couldn’t see through him.

"Has Uncle broken through to Nascent Soul?" Lu Quanzhen wondered, deeply incredulous.

After all, it was already mind-boggling that his father reached Nascent Soul in a hundred years, likely a reincarnation of a great power.

But what was his uncle’s situation, also breaking through to Nascent Soul in a little over a hundred years?

Even though Lu Quanzhen had been through many trials and tribulations, he couldn’t help but find it surreal.

Lu Changsheng saw Qu Changge’s expression and felt a satisfaction inside.

Even though he had no intention of showing off or face-smacking,

as a parent, in front of others, showcasing and boasting about one’s outstanding children always carried a sense of pride.

"Quanzhen, have you broken through to the late stage of Core Formation?"

Qu Zhenzhen knew her son had broken through Core Formation long ago, but she wasn’t aware of his specific cultivation level.

Now hearing her husband’s words, she looked at her son in surprise.

In her mind, aside from her husband, wasn’t her son the highest cultivated in the whole Lu Family?

"Hmm..." Lu Quanzhen lightly nodded, looking at his father, who was sipping tea with a smile.

"Good, good, good, as expected of my nephew!"

Qu Changge clapped with joy, feeling that, indeed, his nephew, carrying the blood of the Qu Family, was exceptional!

"Quanzhen, your uncle didn’t prepare any gifts for you on this trip, but I heard these two had persecuted you before; they’ll serve as your uncle’s gift to you!"

Qu Changge said, lightly raising his hand, a colossal hand appearing, covered in dark patterns and emanating thick demonic energy, its nails like swords.

The hand was surrounded by black mist, wrapping two faintly shaped, frightened Nascent Soul Spirit Bodies.

It was none other than Wu Gu Old Demon and Shi Hai True Monarch!
