Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 1848: 476: Fivefold Tribulation Transformation, Spirit Origin Stone!

Once Lu Changsheng finished organizing his gains, he made his way back to the City Lord's Residence.

"Lu Lang, you've returned!"

"Brother..."

"Daddy, Dad..."

Within the rear garden, Meng Xiaochan, Bai Ling, and Bing’er engaged in conversation with Lu Baixi, Lu Mengchan, and Lu Minghuang. The moment they spotted Lu Changsheng, joyful cries escaped their lips as they dashed toward him, nestling into his arms just like returning swallows.

"Little Chan, Ling’er, Bing’er..."

A wide grin spread across Lu Changsheng's face as he enveloped the three young ladies in his arms, then let Bing’er cling to his limb. His gaze shifted to Lu Baixi, Lu Mengchan, and Lu Minghuang.

Since his departure, the aura surrounding his daughter Lu Baixi had grown even stronger, indicating her advancement to the mid-phase of Second Rank.

Such progress in cultivation appeared rather ordinary at first glance.

Yet, given that her practice mirrored that of a spirit beast, involving both magic and dual cultivation paths, it proved truly remarkable.

All in all, the True Spirit Bloodline she possessed, combined with the deep foundations built in her womb, enabled swift breakthroughs up to a particular level.

His daughter Lu Mengchan had reached the pinnacle of Qi Refining in her cultivation.

Over the span of eight years, advancing from initial Qi intake to the summit of Qi Refining represented an impressive pace.

Nevertheless, possessing a Calamitous Poison Body and parents like Lu Changsheng and Meng Xiaochan, this rate was deemed merely standard.

Meng Xiaochan, however, felt no urgency, preferring her daughter to fully grasp and solidify the "Myriad Calamities Poison Spirit Secret Scripture" prior to any further progress.

Without that, relying on her innate gifts and the Lu Family's resources, breakthroughs could happen whenever.

Regarding his son Lu Minghuang, his progress remained modest, stuck at the Third Level of Energy Refinement.

This came as no surprise.

About two and a half years prior, Lu Changsheng had crafted a custom magical treasure for him, which finally allowed him to begin mastering the "Divine Mechanism Hundred Refinement Technique."

The technique itself demanded profound insight and proved tough to practice. Early hurdles were inevitable, and since Lu Changsheng lacked the opportunity for constant instruction, Meng Xiaochan had stepped in to guide him.

Settling in alongside his spouses and offspring, Lu Changsheng inquired about their recent discussions and overall well-being.

"Husband, Xiao Xi has missed you daily."

Lu Baixi often faced cultivation dilemmas that only Lu Changsheng or Hong Lian could resolve.

Yet, with Lu Changsheng and Hong Lian frequently absent, she turned to Meng Xiaochan for advice and constantly longed for her father.

"Should Xiao Xi face any cultivation doubts, Daddy will guide you soon."

Gazing at his daughter, who appeared no older than eleven or twelve, Lu Changsheng offered a gentle smile while stroking her hair, intending to assign the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng to watch over her shortly.

In the coming days, he had little use for the Golden Peng himself.

Moreover, after devouring the Nascent Soul Spirit Body of the purple-robed elder, the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng needed a period to digest and strengthen, and it could assist in looking after the little one too.

"Do Mengmeng or Minghuang have any cultivation queries?"

Ensuring fairness among his children, Lu Changsheng checked on the progress of his daughter Lu Mengchan and son Lu Minghuang.

"Uh, no."

Lu Mengchan nibbled on her slender finger, thought briefly, then shook her head in reply, her refined and lovely features radiating a shy allure that stirred warmth in the heart.

"No."

Seated nearby, Lu Minghuang shook his head as well.

At present, his practice centered on basic energy refinement.

This stage rarely presented major confusions or obstacles, ones Meng Xiaochan could easily address.

Only as his level rose would the accompanying secret arts, spells, and artifact forging skills pose real difficulties, demanding substantial dedication.

"Alright, feel free to approach Daddy with any questions."

With a kind tone, Lu Changsheng continued by asking after Xiao He.

His daughter Lu Linghe typically stuck close to Lu Baixi and Lu Mengchan.

"Xiao He headed to Dragon Fish Island."

Bai Ling answered promptly, explaining Xiao He's keen fascination with raising the Black Dragon Daoist Soldiers, and how she'd lately accompanied Lu Qingyan.

"Hmm, and what of Ling Xiao and Wangshu?"

Lu Changsheng nodded, considering a visit with his son Lu Ping’an to see his daughter and present her with the Shariputra.

After questioning about Lu Lingxiao, Lu Wangshu, and the rest, he ceased his inquiries, savoring the rare peace and warmth shared with his family.

...

Aware of Lu Changsheng's frequent thoughts toward his elder brother, Ling Zixiao took the initiative to notify Lu Wangshu and bring her along.

"Daddy!"

Clad in a form-fitting red skirt, with her dark locks pulled into a high ponytail, Lu Linghe cried out in delight.

Though Ling Zixiao viewed her daughter as perpetually naively joyful, Lu Changsheng adored this satisfied and upbeat side, always feeling his mood brighten upon seeing her, her cheer spreading to all.

"Little He."

Approaching, Lu Changsheng gently pinched his daughter's cheeks, eager to hand over the Shariputra.

However, upon noticing his daughter Lu Wangshu in her elegant pink-and-white gown, radiating poise and stunning beauty unmatched, standing with his other girls, he restrained himself, opting to present it privately later.

After all, such gifts came at a cost.

The Shariputra counted as a precious item, and he possessed only a limited number of elite presents for his kids.

Before long, Lu Changsheng summoned Lu Ping’an, announcing preparations for a family feast.

"Big brother!"

Lu Linghe beamed upon spotting Lu Ping’an.

Their bond was strong; they trained in martial forms and punches side by side, and in her younger days, she often rode atop his shoulders.

His absences left her yearning deeply.

"Little He."

Lu Ping’an cherished his spirited and joyful sibling, using his big, soft palm to tousle her locks before greeting Lu Wangshu: "Wangshu, Lingxiao."

"Brother."

Lu Wangshu grinned, wondering aloud why Lu Ping’an’s journey had stretched on so long.

"Well, I ran into a few issues and ended up journeying farther than planned."

Lu Ping’an replied sheepishly, then glanced toward Lu Mengchan and the others.

Still, he felt unacquainted with them.

Lu Changsheng facilitated introductions between them.

"Big brother."

The younger siblings greeted him right away.

"First time meeting, so big brother has a small present for you all."

Swiftly, Lu Ping’an retrieved various Heavenly and Earthly Treasures from his Storage Ring and distributed them among the children.
