Chapter 36: Lu Changsheng's Surprise

"It's better outside, I feel so restless in there."

Lu Jiuyuan said as he walked towards the Thousand Ghost King, with Ling Qingping nodding in agreement beside him.

"Young Master, you're out? Huh, what's this?"

The Thousand Ghost King greeted Lu Jiuyuan enthusiastically upon seeing him, but his attention was quickly drawn to Long Aotian on Lu Jiuyuan's shoulder.

"Oh, this is a True Dragon, what's wrong?"

Lu Jiuyuan stated it without reservation. Hearing this, the Thousand Ghost King couldn't help but gasp, and then sincerely congratulated him.

"Congratulations to the Young Master on obtaining a beloved pet."

"Ah, keep it down, keep it down, it's just a small matter."

Lu Jiuyuan said modestly. The Thousand Ghost King then shut his mouth and gave Lu Jiuyuan a knowing look. After all, any True Dragon that doesn't die young is destined to become a terrifying existence at the Mahayana Stage.

"Alright, the trip to the secret realm is over, take us back."

Lu Jiuyuan said. The Thousand Ghost King then led him and Ling Qingping back towards Qingfeng Town in the distance.

At this moment, Uncle Liu, who had just rushed back: ???

But there was nothing he could do, so he could only rush back in the direction of Qingfeng Town.

Meanwhile, in the City Lord's mansion of Panshi Town, a young man in a green robe sat in the mansion, looking curiously at the annihilated Yuan family in the distance.

"I wonder how Yuan Changqing managed to provoke that girl Qingping. But it doesn't matter, he's just a cultivator at the Void Refining Stage, it won't have much impact on our Yuanwu Kingdom."

The young man in the green robe was none other than the City Lord of Panshi Town, Ling Qingping's third uncle, Ling Xuanyu.

He had no interest in politics many years ago, so he came to Panshi Town to be a City Lord. Ling Xuanyu was also a genuine cultivator at the Peak Body Integration stage.

The Thousand Ghost King's speed was extremely fast. Soon, Lu Jiuyuan and his group returned to Qingfeng Town and stopped in front of the Lu Family. Before Lu Jiuyuan could speak, Lu Xuan and Lu Changsheng appeared before him.

"Jiuyuan, you've broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage?"

The two naturally sensed the change in Lu Jiuyuan and said with surprise. Lu Jiuyuan naturally wouldn't deny it in front of the two Old Ancestors.

He nodded and said with a serious expression.

"I found some opportunities in the secret realm and luckily broke through to the Foundation Establishment Stage."

"So that's how it is."

Lu Changsheng and Lu Xuan nodded. Ling Qingping spoke at this moment.

"Senior Lu, Jiuyuan, since you still have matters to discuss, I will take my leave. I also feel the opportunity to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage."

Ling Qingping turned to leave, while Lu Jiuyuan looked at the Thousand Ghost King.

"Thousand Ghost, escort Qingping back to the Princess's Mansion."

"Thank you."

Ling Qingping was surprised for a moment, then bowed. Soon, the Thousand Ghost King disappeared with Ling Qingping.

Only then did Lu Jiuyuan explain what had happened in the secret realm.

Upon hearing about the Glazed Treasure Liquid, Lu Changsheng and Lu Xuan were both shocked. Lu Jiuyuan managed to find the opportunities that others couldn't, which indicated that Lu Jiuyuan's fortune was probably quite significant.

Although fortune is invisible and intangible, it truly exists. At the same time, fortune has a crucial impact on a cultivator's cultivation. Those with excellent fortune can break through to extremely profound realms with little effort.

Then, upon hearing Lu Jiuyuan mention the Glazed Immortal Body, their brows furrowed. Because they had never heard of a man possessing the Glazed Immortal Body.

From ancient times to the present, the possessors of the Glazed Immortal Body have basically all been women.

Taking a deep breath, Lu Changsheng gravely instructed.

"Jiuyuan, you absolutely must not tell anyone about possessing the Glazed Immortal Body, otherwise, it might bring about considerable disaster."

"Yes, I understand."

Lu Jiuyuan nodded with a serious expression. Lu Changsheng then inquired again.

"By the way, who else knows that you possess the Glazed Immortal Body?"

"Ling Qingping, but we have a very good relationship, she shouldn't leak this matter."

Lu Jiuyuan thought for a moment and then said. Lu Changsheng and Lu Xuan exchanged a glance. It seemed understandable. Ling Qingping and Lu Jiuyuan felt like they were on the verge of a breakthrough in their relationship, so Ling Qingping wouldn't do such a thing at this time.

"In short, cultivate well, and absolutely do not reveal the matter of the Glazed Immortal Body."

Lu Changsheng instructed with a serious expression. Lu Jiuyuan nodded again.

And it was at this moment that Lu Changsheng noticed the True Dragon on Lu Jiuyuan's shoulder, looking somewhat surprised.

"There's actually a True Dragon in the Qingfeng Secret Realm?"

Long Aotian was already coiled on Lu Jiuyuan's shoulder, not daring to move. He had already felt the Thousand Ghost King was very powerful, let alone Lu Changsheng now.

This feeling was like a single glance could instantly kill him, a presence whose pressure he might not even be able to withstand. He also became curious, what kind of terrifying family did his master have?

"Yes, he has now become my spirit beast, named Long Aotian."

Lu Jiuyuan introduced him, and Long Aotian respectfully greeted them.

"I am Long Aotian, paying my respects to you two seniors."

"Hmm, Long Aotian, is it? You'd better be a good spirit beast to our Lu Family's Young Master, or I'll scatter your soul."

Lu Changsheng said with a cold snort. At this moment, Lu Jiuyuan could be considered the most talented individual in the history of the Lu Family, and naturally, he wouldn't allow anything to harm Lu Jiuyuan.

"Yes, senior. I will certainly assist my master well," Long Aotian said quickly under the immense pressure.

"Hmm, this drop of Dragon Blood was something I stumbled upon in a secret realm. Take it and use it."

As Lu Changsheng spoke, he took out a drop of Dragon Blood from his storage ring. The Dragon Blood emanated a terrifying pressure, indicating that its former owner's cultivation was absolutely formidable.

"Hiss, thank you for the ancestor's gift!"

Long Aotian felt the terrifying energy within the Dragon Blood. Absorbing it would undoubtedly be greatly beneficial to him, so he repeatedly thanked Lu Changsheng.

As Long Aotian guided the Dragon Blood into his body, Lu Jiuyuan spoke up.

"Ancestor, I just came out of the secret realm and am quite tired. I won't disturb you further. Farewell."

With that, Lu Jiuyuan walked back into the Lu Family. Lu Xuan and Lu Changsheng both shook their heads. Lu Jiuyuan carried the burden of the Lu Family's prosperity, and the pressure was undeniable.

"It seems I need to expedite the marriage between Jiuyuan and that girl Qingping. Finding a woman will help Jiuyuan relax and, incidentally, help our Lu Family expand its lineage."

Lu Changsheng sighed. His and Lu Xuan's cultivation was high; if they were to rely on just the two of them to expand the Lu Family, it would likely take a very long time.

At this moment, Lu Jiuyuan was unaware that the two old ancestors were once again worrying about his marriage. The same was true for Ling Qingping on the other side.

After returning to the Princess's Mansion, Ling Qingping immediately began her closed-door cultivation to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

However, she wasn't as fortunate as Lu Jiuyuan, and breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Stage would naturally take some time.
