Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family

Chapter 2113: 566: Lu Changsheng: Master... True Man, Why Are You Here?

Although Yun Wanshang found Lu Changsheng’s behavior highly distasteful, she couldn’t deny their profound mutual trust.

"Of course, I don’t mind," Lu Changsheng gladly replied.

Despite their close understanding of each other, Lu Changsheng was willing to collaborate even with an unfamiliar cultivator to gather information about the Land of Eternal Night.

Moreover, aside from Qian Zhuyan, he was also searching for the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng.

If he could gain the assistance of a local force from the Land of Eternal Night, finding the Golden Peng would be simpler.

Furthermore, the Six Paths Demon Consort was also supposed to be in this realm.

In his current dormant state of cultivation and magical power, if he could get Yun Wanshang’s help, he would feel more assured when encountering this Demon Consort.

"Hmm, Xi Yue...how is she now?" Yun Wanshang asked, looking at Lu Changsheng.

When she had set off on her travels, she hadn’t anticipated being away for so long. Unexpected incidents led her to end up in this world, leaving her deeply concerned for the Qingyun Sect, her disciple Chu Qingyi, and Xiao Xiyue.

"Xi Yue is doing well; she has long since broken through to Core Formation," Lu Changsheng replied, a wave of longing surfacing as he mentioned Xiao Xiyue.

When he visited her at the Qingyun Sect, the Sect Leader had informed him that she had gone to the Yue Country War.

Now, so many years had passed, and he could only wonder how the war was faring and whether Xi Yue was in danger.

Learning that her disciple Xiao Xiyue had broken through to Core Formation, Yun Wanshang felt a sense of relief and asked about the state of the Qingyun Sect.

"True Man, while you were traveling, perhaps you did not know: previously, Liang Country waged a Magic Artifact War against Yue Country... The Liangyue War is now at a stalemate, and Yuan Country is infiltrating Wu Country, so the Heavenly Sword Sect summoned the Nascent Soul cultivators from the Four Great Immortal Sects to help Yue Country bear the pressure..."

Lu Changsheng recounted some current events in Jiang Country and the Qingyun Sect.

"The Liangyue War," Yun Wanshang thought, as a member of the Qingyun Sect’s higher-ups, she had anticipated the outbreak of war upon her departure, though she hadn’t expected the conflict to be so intense.

She suddenly asked, "Lu Changsheng, with the fierce fighting between Jiang Country and Yue Country, how did you end up at the Starry Sky Sea?"

If Lu Changsheng had broken through to Nascent Soul, he should have been able to influence the war situation, yet here he was mysteriously appearing in the Land of Eternal Night.

"Like you, True Man, after reaching the pinnacle of Core Formation, I sensed my opportunity for Nascent Soul lay within the Starry Sky Sea," Lu Changsheng explained candidly, without concealing his cultivation status.

On one hand, Yun Wanshang was already aware of his breakthrough to Core Formation.

On the other hand, the two needed to work together to leave this realm.

Under the circumstances, he couldn’t afford to be secretive and had to display some of his strength and techniques.

"The pinnacle of Core Formation? You haven’t broken through to Nascent Soul?" Yun Wanshang was taken aback.

Although Lu Changsheng’s reaching the pinnacle of Core Formation at his age was impressive, it was still relatively common compared to a breakthrough to Nascent Soul.

After all, a Nascent Soul cultivator over a hundred years old couldn’t be found in the entire history of Jiang Country’s Cultivation World.

Even within the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm, such cultivators were legendary, as rare as phoenix feathers.

"No, I haven’t," Lu Changsheng noticed Yun Wanshang’s expression and was amused, knowing she had assumed he had reached Nascent Soul.

But upon reflection, it was understandable.

He not only had a Fourth Rank Puppet like Qian Zhuyan but also possessed a Spiritual Treasure and three top-level Third Rank Puppets.

Upon hearing that Lu Changsheng hadn’t reached Nascent Soul, Yun Wanshang felt relieved but also somewhat disappointed.

According to the rumors, only Nascent Soul cultivators who mastered Space Force could escape.

Since Lu Changsheng hadn’t broken through to Nascent Soul, their chances of leaving had just become much harder.

"Don’t worry, True Man. I have some opportunities; once I can recover my mana, I’ll have a way to leave this world!"

Now that he knew the method of leaving, Lu Changsheng was confident about leaving the Land of Eternal Night.

"Hmm," Yun Wanshang acknowledged, looking at the confidence in Lu Changsheng’s brow, as she continued to elaborate on the conditions of the Land of Eternal Night.

Although Lu Changsheng had learned much from Yuan Yi’an and others about the Land of Eternal Night, their knowledge was limited and didn’t compare to Yun Wanshang’s.

"By the way, True Man, have you noticed any Heavenly Light or a golden peng bird appearing somewhere about two months ago? I was sucked into this place by the Ghost Ship along with my Spiritual Pet," Lu Changsheng asked Yun Wanshang.

He had to find the Golden Peng that had fallen into this world.

As a True Spirit Level Demon King, the speed of the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng was unmatched; finding it would not only boost their strength but might also aid in their escape.

"Two months ago, Heavenly Light, a golden peng bird?" Yun Wanshang pondered briefly before shaking her head, saying she’d need to inquire upon her return.

As a City Lord, unless a Heavenly Light Treasure emerged, she rarely went out.

The two conversed like long-lost friends, deeply engrossed in their discussion.

Although Lu Changsheng’s past proclamation at Caiyun Peak about one day reaching Qingyun Peak and embracing the clouds had left their relationship awkward, neither mentioned it now.

After a long while, they rose, bringing along Qian Zhuyan, the three puppets, and Yun Wanshang’s Golden Armor Guards, they ventured into the deep mountains to search for Spiritual Objects.
