Lu Changsheng bids farewell to his children and leaves the Soul-calling Beast at Yiming Ghost Sect to guard it. He returns to Jiang Country as half a year passes, while the Heavenly Sword Sect notices Yiming Ghost Sect's unusual sealing of its gates and suspects a breakthrough to Nascent Soul. Meanwhile, Lu Miaoyun arranges for Lu Qingxuan to join the war and hosts a Core Formation ceremony for Wang Yanjing.

How did the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family end up with a Core Formation cultivator of an outside surname?

But when they learned that Wang Yanjing was the daughter of Changsheng True Master, Lu Xingchen’s wife, these forces, these cultivators were all dumbfounded, stupefied.

Two and a half years ago, the Qingxuan True Man of the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family had just broken through not long before, and then another Nascent Soul Celestial Phenomenon appeared.

Regarding this person who formed the core, the outside world was wildly speculating.

In the end, all fingers pointed to the daughter of Changsheng True Master and Xi Yue, the Lu Family’s pearl, the Talisman Fairy Lu Wangshu.

Yet no one ever imagined that the one who formed the core was not Lu Wangshu, whom everyone believed it to be.

Instead it was Changsheng True Master’s daughterinlaw, the wife of a Lu Family Foundation Establishment junior.

This was truly far too astonishing, utterly unbelievable.

With this level of talent, this qualification for Core Formation, you chose to marry?

And the one you married was not Lu Ping’an, nor Lu Qingxuan, those dazzling Lu Family prodigies in the spotlight.

But Lu Xingchen, whose reputation was comparatively ordinary and not particularly outstanding.

For a time, countless cultivators felt envy, jealousy, and hatred toward Lu Xingchen.

They thought, what virtue, what ability does a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator have, to actually possess a Nascent Soul Immortal as his wife!

You must know, in the Cultivation World, the number of highrank female cultivators is far fewer than male cultivators.

Most male cultivators, when seeking Dao Companions, have to lower their standards and accept downwards.

Just like back then, when Lu Changsheng married Xiao Xiyue, many cultivators felt it was "marrying up from below."

Now Lu Xingchen actually managed to marry a woman whose talent and literary grace were so extraordinarily high.

"This Lu Xingchen truly has the style of his father, Changsheng True Master. According to the ’Legend of Changsheng True Master,’ in his early years Changsheng True Master married into the Lu Family of Qingzhu Mountain, and when the Lu Family of Qingzhu Mountain and the Hundred Birds Lake Bai Family attacked the Chen Family of Red Leaf Valley, they relied on a female cultivator who admired Changsheng True Master."

"I’ve heard that at that time Changsheng True Master was only in the Qi Refinement Realm, still a soninlaw of Qingzhu Mountain, yet he won the admiration of a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator."

"My greatgrandfather had the fortune to participate in that battle back then, and he said that this female cultivator admired Changsheng True Master beyond measure, even preparing her own dowry, willing to become a concubine and marry Changsheng True Master."

"Looking at it now, that female cultivator truly had good eyes, actually discerning Changsheng True Master’s potential so early on."

"Hiss, could it be that this Lu Xingchen also has some extraordinary quality, so that he could win the favor of such a woman?"

"He does—his father is Changsheng True Master."

Many cultivators chattered endlessly, discussing Lu Xingchen’s situation, even dragging it back to Lu Changsheng, this Lu Family Ancestor.

After all, for several hundred years now, the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family and Changsheng True Master could be called the most dazzling new star of the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family.

His growth experience was talked about avidly by countless cultivators, held up as a model, a goal, and even compiled into several books.

As for the matter of Wang Yanjing, most loose cultivators and minor forces simply sighed and felt envy, jealousy, and hatred toward Lu Xingchen.

But some oldline forces with deep foundations learned that Wang Yanjing was once the legitimate daughter of the "Five Elements Royal Family," a Nascent Soul Seed.

With this piece of information, they immediately guessed that Wang Yanjing’s Core Formation absolutely had the sponsorship of the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family.

Otherwise, based on Wang Yanjing’s own talent alone, her chance of breaking through to Core Formation would not exceed thirty percent!

And the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family had just nurtured Lu Qingxuan into a Nascent Soul Cultivator, with many more juniors still waiting to be cultivated, yet they could still afford to sponsor an outsidesurname daughterinlaw—its foundations were simply unimaginable!

Although Changsheng True Master is one of Jiang Country’s toplevel Talisman Masters and surely holds many rare resources in his hands, these Family Forces were still shaken by such largesse.

For a while, many families conceived the idea of marrying their talented female cultivators off to outstanding Lu Family juniors.

Under normal circumstances, such female cultivators would never marry out.

But if they can obtain Core Formation fortune, then that’s a different story.

So long as this woman can break through Core Formation, then with a slight future repayment to the family, it would be more than enough to surpass the help brought by a Foundation Establishment Peak cultivator.

The force most shocked and utterly dumbstruck by this news was Huang Yuan Mountain.

Huang Yuan Mountain is exactly the former Five Elements Mountain.

Long ago, Huang Yuan Zhenren and several friends seized Five Elements Mountain and, not long after moving in, renamed it Huang Yuan Mountain.

They had never imagined that, after several decades, the oncedeclining Five Elements Royal Family would actually produce a Nascent Soul Immortal.

Their Huang Yuan Mountain possessed two Nascent Soul Cultivators and a Third Rank Demon King, so they naturally did not fear a newly advanced Nascent Soul Cultivator.

If the other party came seeking revenge and trouble, they could easily kill her.

But this Wang Family Core Formation is a daughterinlaw of the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family—that made the problem serious.

They suspected that the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family found Bi Lake Mountain lacking and had set their sights on Five Elements Mountain, this Spiritual Vein Dojo, so they cultivated Wang Yanjing, this former legitimate Wang Family daughter.

They wanted to use that connection, under the Wang Family banner, to seize Five Elements Mountain.

The Nascent Soul Cultivator sitting in town at Huang Yuan Mountain immediately sent someone to relay the message to Huang Yuan Zhenren, who was at the front line.

Then he prepared congratulatory gifts and personally went to Bi Lake Mountain to attend the ceremony, to probe what sort of attitude the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family held.

"Seventh Uncle, I said back then, I will no longer involve myself in Wang Family affairs."

At Bi Lake Mountain, Wang Yanjing looked at the Wang Family cultivators who had come to pay respects to her at the first possible moment and spoke.

Back then, when she asked her husband and grannymother to step in, borrowing the Nine Netherhound to rescue the Wang Family cultivators of Five Elements Mountain, she had already gone above and beyond—she could not possibly help again.

What’s more, everything she possessed now came entirely from her husband Lu Xingchen and her father and motherinlaw’s bestowals.

How could she have surplus resources to sponsor Wang Family cultivators?

Right now she only wanted to contribute to the Lu Family, to do her utmost to prepare her son Lu Xuanqian’s cultivation resources and Core Formation resources in full.

As for Five Elements Mountain, she had no designs.

Not to mention that she did not have that level of strength and was no match for Huang Yuan Mountain.

Even if she did have the strength, she would leave it for her son Lu Xuanqian, for him to reclaim it after he broke through to Core Formation.

Otherwise that Spiritual Vein Dojo would still have people carping over whether its surname was Wang or Lu!

"We understand..." These Wang Family elders sighed inwardly at her words, cupping their hands and bowing, not daring to say more before Wang Yanjing.

After all, the other party now was a Nascent Soul Immortal, with a noble status.

If they leaned on kinship and seniority, angered her and cut off Wang Family’s emotional ties completely, it would be they, the Wang Family, who would suffer.

For now, by relying on this connection, they could at least continue to stay in the Qingyun Region and live quite well.

...

As for Wang Yanjing, Huang Yuan Mountain, and all that, Lu Miaoge, Lu Miaoyun, and the others were unaware.

At this moment, several Lu Family Main Mothers were all within the Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven.

Quietly watching Lu Miaohuan, who was about to break through to Core Formation!
