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

Chapter 2704: Chapter 874: Myriad Beasts Demon Sect, the Choice of the 9-Spirit True Monarch!

"Pacify Liang Country, and replace Liang Country with Jiang Country!?"

During the discussion of future strategic plans, Xuanjian True Monarch revealed Lu Changsheng’s current visit purpose to Primordial True Monarch and Purple Light True Lord.

Upon hearing this, their tense and uneasy emotions calmed down.

However, thinking about how after the war is settled, Yue Country would border Jiang Country under the rule of this Great Dream City Master, they couldn’t help but sigh.

Currently, Jiang Country is under the control of the Heavenly Sword Sect. The two forces are evenly matched, and with formidable enemies like Jin Kingdom and Liang Country, they are reliable allies.

But once Jiang Country is controlled by the Great Dream City Master, who has captured and killed four Nascent Soul True Lords, Yue Country would be at Jiang Country’s mercy.

If the other party harbors discontent and wants to annex Yue Country, they would be utterly powerless to resist.

Yet, under the current circumstances, they cannot refuse the assistance of the Great Dream City Master, so they could only agree at Xuanjian True Monarch’s suggestion.

After the meeting ended, Primordial True Monarch, Purple Light True Lord, and Absolute Sword True Monarch released the battle achievements of the Great Dream City Master and Yangming True Master.

Purple Light True Lord and Primordial True Monarch also took the opportunity to dispel rumors.

They stated that both Purple Light True Lord and Yuan Qi True Monarch were unharmed.

The previous news about Yuan Qi True Monarch’s demise and Purple Light True Lord’s magic body shattering was pure Liang Country rumor, a psychological tactic.

In no time, the news about the Great Dream City Master and Yangming True Master being the same person who captured four Nascent Souls spread like a tempest across the Yue Country battlefield.

The news also spread toward Jiang Country, Jin Kingdom, Liang Country, Wu Country, the Endless Wilderness, and beyond.

After all, this news was truly astonishing.

In the past, in the Vast Sand Illusion Realm, the Yangming True Man who fought against Nascent Soul True Lords with a Core Formation cultivation level and the City Master of Jiang Country’s Great Dream Immortal City turned out to be the same person.

Upon making a move, he captured and killed four Nascent Soul True Lords of Liang Country, which was truly shocking.

"Could the Great Dream City Master really be Yangming True Man of the past, who with a Core Formation cultivation level, countered Nascent Souls?"

"Rumor has it that back then, Yangming True Man used a secret technique, burning life to assist Azure Phoenix True Monarch, even going so far as to self-destruct his dharma body. Hadn’t he already fallen? How could he and the Great Dream City Master be the same person?"

"Having just broken through to Nascent Soul, how could he capture and kill four Nascent Soul True Lords? How is that possible?"

"Is this Jiang Country and Yue Country’s psychological warfare counter against Liang Country?"

"This news was released by Jiang Country and Yue Country’s high levels; all the cultivators of Red Peak Immortal City personally witnessed and testified to the process, there can be no mistake."

"This is too astonishing! What is the origin of this Yangming True Master? Is he a reincarnation of some great power, a possession reincarnation? Otherwise, how could he grow to such an astonishing level when thirty years ago he was just a Core Formation cultivator!"

The cultivators of Jiang Country and Yue Country discussed this topic at length, all finding it hard to believe, feeling it too far-fetched and like a tale out of myth.

After all, throughout the many years of the Liang Yue War, Yue Country had always been at a disadvantage.

Recently, Liang Country’s demon path army had invaded on a large scale, capturing towns and cities, forcing Yue Country into a continual retreat.

Even news came of Yuan Qi True Monarch’s demise and Purple Light True Lord’s magic body destruction.

But within just a few days, the situation reversed, how could one not be astonished and shocked?

Especially since Nascent Soul True Lords are the top-level existences in the cultivation world.

Capable of stirring and controlling the winds of change in the cultivation world, standing aloof, transcending the mundane.

Yet now, by the hands of Yangming True Master, four have been captured and killed, which is truly shocking to the world.

"Yangming True Master, Great Dream City Master... Changsheng has come!"

Xiao Xiyue and Chu Qingyi had been on the Yue Country battlefield all these years, responsible for patrolling, enforcing, and supporting, just like Lu Qingshan.

Upon hearing the rumors about Yangming True Master and the Great Dream City Master, the two women were filled with joy, surprise, and bewilderment.

Others may not know, but they were naturally aware that Yangming True Master and the Great Dream City Master was Lu Changsheng.

As for Xiao Xiyue, she even knew that three years ago, Lu Changsheng went to the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range to attempt his Nascent Soul breakthrough.

In just three years after breaking through to Nascent Soul, he captured and killed four Nascent Soul True Lords of Liang Country...

Even after being accustomed to Lu Changsheng’s various incredible deeds over a hundred years of marriage, Xiao Xiyue couldn’t help but be surprised.

After all, those were four Nascent Soul True Lords.

Throughout the prolonged Liang Yue War, only a Heavenly Fiend True Monarch had been lost.

But then, a wave of pride and longing surged in her heart.

He is her husband...

If it weren’t for the task at hand, she would have wanted to rush to Red Peak Immortal City to meet Lu Changsheng.

Compared to Xiao Xiyue, Chu Qingyi’s emotions were more twisted and complex.

She was both delighted and happy for Lu Changsheng’s achievements, yet felt that the gap between them had significantly widened.

Once, they met in the Tianyuan Secret Realm; she was at Core Formation Third Layer, while Lu Changsheng was at Core Formation Second Layer.

At that time, her true elixir was shattered and reformed;

Lu Changsheng, with the Nascent Soul Origin of Tianyuan True Monarch and her Primordial Yin Origin, broke through to Core Formation Third Layer.

Now, sixty-five years have passed.

Lu Changsheng broke through to Nascent Soul, achieved worldwide fame, capturing and killing four Nascent Soul cultivators of Liang Country.

And she, had just broken through to Core Formation Seventh Layer...

Although to outsiders, breaking through from mid to late stage of Core Formation at her age is considered exceptionally talented, with a Nascent Soul True Lord as a master, her future seemed limitless.

But in the face of a genius like Lu Changsheng, she couldn’t help feeling... inferior.

Thinking of Lu Changsheng who was in Red Peak Immortal City, she also thought of her son Lu Shouzheng and her master Caiyun True Monarch, who were far away in Jiang Country.

Even though Xiao Xiyue, upon coming to Yue Country for support, told her that Lu Shouzheng was doing well and was cultivating with their master on Caiyun Peak.

Yet, the more it was so, the more she felt guilty towards her master, not knowing how to face Yun Wanshang.

Regarding her son Lu Shouzheng, she was full of guilt and self-blame.

At the age when he needed his parents the most, she has always been away, unable to go back to see or accompany him.
