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

Chapter 2328: Chapter 773: Storm Approaching, Even a Fearless Woman Fears a Persistent Man

Xiao Xiyue stepped into the Immortal Ceremony Hall and immediately saw Chu Qingyi in a blue palace dress, her black hair loosely coiled up, holding a young child in her arms.

She lowered her head slightly to look at the child in her arms; the usual icy aloofness was nowhere to be seen. Her brows and eyes were like the warm sun of spring, flowing with the gentle radiance of motherhood.

"Senior Sister..."

Even though Xiao Xiyue cultivated the Supreme Forgetful Love Technique and was usually undisturbed by emotion or external matters, when she saw the scene before her, the Heart Lake that was as calm as still water seemed to have a stone dropped into it, sending out ripples one after another.

"Junior Sister, you’re back."

"Shouzheng, this is your Martial Aunt."

Seeing Xiao Xiyue before her, whose cold and holy face was like a Moon Palace Fairy, Chu Qingyi lightly pressed her red lips together, then spoke softly to the child in her arms, her voice gentle and melodious.

"Martial Aunt!"

The young child was not afraid of strangers at all. He stared straight at Xiao Xiyue and called out loudly.

"Mm."

Xiao Xiyue looked at the child’s carved-jade features and the still slightly baby-fat cheeks and found a faint familiarity in them.

Although she had not cultivated any Blood Path Cultivation Technique and could not sense the bloodline aura between the two of them,

just from her senior sister’s words, actions, and expression, as well as the child’s facial contours, she knew this was her senior sister’s son, her own flesh and blood.

She even knew who the father of this child was...

"Shouzheng, his name is Lu Shouzheng, isn’t it?"

Although Xiao Xiyue had long known that her senior sister and her own husband had an extraordinary relationship, and that in the future the two of them might become sister-wives...

seeing that after she had been away for years they already had a child, she still felt a few emotions surge up in her heart.

But her Supreme Forgetful Love Technique instinctively circulated, instantly suppressing and smoothing away these emotions.

"Mm."

Chu Qingyi gazed at her junior sister’s beautiful eyes that were as indifferent as the bright moon in the sky, untouched by emotions or disturbances. Her heart paused slightly, then she gently nodded.

Even though she had been turning these matters over in her mind for years, she was still a little nervous facing her junior sister.

"Shouzheng, come, let your Martial Aunt hold you."

Xiao Xiyue forced herself to suppress the circulation of the Supreme Forgetful Love Technique and looked at the child in her senior sister’s arms.

Even if she felt a bit of emotion over this matter, she could not possibly blame her senior sister.

After all, as fellow disciples for decades, she knew her senior sister Chu Qingyi’s temperament very well.

Back in those early years, her senior sister had always felt guilty towards her.

In a matter like this, it was definitely her own husband’s doing.

As the Supreme Forgetful Love Technique ceased circulating, when she thought of Lu Changsheng, even the icy aura around Xiao Xiyue that kept others a thousand miles away seemed to melt a little.

The young child took a look at his mother. Seeing Chu Qingyi put him down, he immediately stepped forward, calling "Martial Aunt" as he went.

"Shouzheng, how old are you this year?"

Looking at the young child before her, Xiao Xiyue did not quite know how to face him for a moment.

Although she had a daughter, she did not have much experience as a mother, in raising a child.

Towards her daughter Lu Wangshu, she had always been accommodating in everything, treating her with a mindset of guilty compensation.

"Martial Aunt, do you know when my father will come back?"

The child’s big black eyes, bright as lacquer, looked at the Martial Aunt before him as he asked.

"Your father?"

Hearing this, Xiao Xiyue looked at her senior sister in some surprise, wanting to know whether Lu Changsheng had been away for a long time.

"Lu... Lu Changsheng, he should be busy with the Nascent Soul matter." Chu Qingyi lightly pressed her red lips together and said.

"Nascent Soul?"

Xiao Xiyue understood Lu Changsheng’s situation even better than Chu Qingyi did; she knew that his cultivation level had reached Core Formation Late Stage long ago.

It was reasonable that he would now be seeking the opportunity for Nascent Soul.

She asked Chu Qingyi how long Lu Changsheng had been gone.

"Four and a half years."

"That long?"

Although Lu Changsheng had often gone out in his early years, he would usually return within two or three years at most.

After she spoke, she seemed to think of something and looked at her senior sister, saying, "Senior Sister, does he know about Shouzheng?"

At this moment, Chu Qingyi, who was a Core Formation True Man, was completely tense and ill at ease. Under her junior sister Xiao Xiyue’s gaze, she said softly, "He probably doesn’t know."

Xiao Xiyue sighed inwardly, then said, "Senior Sister, all these years you’ve been taking care of Shouzheng by yourself? You haven’t gone to Bi Lake Mountain?"

Seeing her senior sister purse her lips without speaking, looking nervous and ill at ease, Xiao Xiyue rose to her feet and held Chu Qingyi’s hand, saying, "Senior Sister, I’m planning to go to Bi Lake Mountain to see Wangshu. Come with me."

"Let Shouzheng and Wangshu get to know each other as well. He can’t stay by your side like this all the time, can he?"

No matter what, Chu Qingyi was her senior sister.

Their relationship was much closer than that of many of Lu Changsheng’s other wives.

Besides, since her senior sister and her husband already had a son, what else could she say?

Naturally, she had to help sort out this relationship.

Especially since no one knew where Lu Changsheng was now, and her senior sister herself didn’t know how to handle it.

If Lu Changsheng never came back, when this son grew up, he might very well harbor resentment towards this unreliable father.

"Mm."

Although Chu Qingyi was apprehensive and did not know how to face Lu Changsheng’s other wives, when she saw the hint of concern in her junior sister’s eyes, she still nodded.

She knew she could not keep the child by her side forever.

As for waiting until Lu Changsheng came back to deal with it, they didn’t even know when Lu Changsheng would return now.

"Buzz!"

Xiao Xiyue raised her hand lightly, and a palm-sized Jade Sedan grew larger as it met the wind, carrying Chu Qingyi and Lu Shouzheng away from Caiyun Peak and Qingyun Sect, heading toward Bi Lake Mountain.

"Junior Sister, have you been in any danger these years?"

Inside the Jade Sedan, Chu Qingyi looked a bit ill at ease, not knowing what to talk about, so she asked after Xiao Xiyue and inquired about the situation of the Liangyue War.

She had previously gone to Yue Country together with Xiao Xiyue and knew that this mission carried a certain degree of danger.

It was because she had encountered the Flood Dragon Saint Heir of Beast God Mountain and suffered heavy injuries that she returned to the sect early.

"The situation is very unfavorable..."

Xiao Xiyue did not conceal anything and told her about the current situation.
