Lu Changsheng and Zhao Qingyi finalize their marriage plans and discuss past promises regarding Core Formation and Nascent Soul cultivation. Zhao Qingyi grapples with her feelings about Lu Changsheng's relationship with her Master, Yun Wanshang, and Lu Changsheng reassures her. They then prepare to face their son, Lu Shouzheng, and Lu Yunxiao.

Yet it was precisely in this way that Lu Changsheng and Chu Qingyi both noticed the child’s subtle distance.

Lu Changsheng did not mind, and asked him about his cultivation situation with care.

As for Lu Yunxiao, he was somewhat unfamiliar with his father Lu Changsheng, whom he had only met a few times, lacking closeness, displaying similar traits to Lu Shouzheng.

"Your mother won’t return for quite a while yet. Let me take you out for a stroll."

Feeling somewhat awkward, Lu Changsheng took his son Lu Yunxiao out of the Qingyun Sect, to nurture the father-son bond.

On the other side, a talisman-based incarnation with Chu Qingyi, Lu Shouzheng, and their family of three went out for a leisurely walk.

Although the incarnation formed by the Talisman cannot be too far from the original.

But under Lu Changsheng’s Nascent Soul Late Stage soul, unless separated by hundreds of miles, there was no problem.

"There’s no need to be too reserved in front of me, your father."

Lu Changsheng said to his son Lu Yunxiao.

As a Nascent Soul Cultivator, the Lu Ancestor could easily see through his son’s personality.

If son Lu Shouzheng could be described as truly earnest, then Lu Yunxiao was falsely earnest.

On the surface, he appeared mature beyond his years, prematurely wise and disciplined, courteous.

Yet he had been quietly observing, studying his father, seemingly pondering and grumbling within.

"I understand, Father." Lu Yunxiao nodded with a bow, knowing that his father was not as harsh as he seemed.

"Did you learn this from Shouzheng, or did your mother teach you?"

Lu Changsheng thought the latter was more likely, considering Yun Wanshang’s personality was somewhat stern and upright.

"Mother once said, ’Without learning courtesy, one cannot stand,’ and the books also say, ’Courtesy is the foundation of one’s conduct,’ although I am young, I know I must not be disrespectful."

With a calm expression, Lu Yunxiao spoke: "Of course, in daily interactions with Brother Shouzheng, I have also benefited greatly from observing his words and actions."

"..." Lu Changsheng felt a bit speechless towards his son who was like a little adult. .

Though they say educating children should start from an early age.

Yet the Lu Ancestor didn’t favor such a rigid personality, preferring liveliness and spontaneity.

"At your age, you should have the innocence that comes with it." Lu Changsheng said to him.

"Father means childlike nature, right?"

Lu Yunxiao tilted his head slightly, pondering whether his father wanted him to appear na?ve and adoringly reverent?

Though he found it childish, if his father preferred it, he wouldn’t mind displaying it a bit, to enhance the father-son relationship.

"Never mind, just be yourself."

Lu Changsheng, utilizing the Taiyi Divine Soul, discerned his son’s thoughts and sentiments.

He realized this son couldn’t be seen as an average five or six-year-old, possessing exceptional wisdom.

"What hobbies do you usually have?" Lu Changsheng inquired.

"Reading books and practicing swordsmanship." Lu Yunxiao replied earnestly.

In reality, he lacked interest in sword practice, but sparring with Lu Shouzheng held some appeal, otherwise he preferred delving into the Great Luo Sword Embryo.

After all, most sword techniques and swordsmanship, he understood instantly without needing extensive cultivation.

"Come, let me see how much you’ve learned from the Sword Embryo over the years."

Lu Changsheng smiled faintly, eager to see the progress in his son’s Sword Dao talent over the years.

This son possessed the Sword Embryo Dao Body and had continually been nurtured by the Great Luo Sword Embryo, essentially undergoing cultivation and Sword Dao enlightenment constantly.

"Yes." Lu Yunxiao did not use the Great Luo Sword Embryo but rather the wooden sword given by Lu Shouzheng.

"Use the Sword Embryo," Lu Changsheng said.

The son hadn’t formally cultivated; all cultivation and magical power originated from the Sword Embryo.

Unleashing the Great Luo Sword Embryo would fully demonstrate his swordsmanship prowess.

Lu Yunxiao was surprised, aware of the power of the Great Luo Sword Embryo.

But since his father said so, he dutifully complied, the Great Luo Sword Embryo from his Qi Ocean Core landing in his hand.

The sword embryo, although capable of size at will, felt somewhat large in Lu Yunxiao’s hand.

"Father, be careful." Lu Yunxiao bowed and said.

"Just go ahead and use it." Lu Changsheng beckoned him, disfavoring his son’s overly mature demeanor at such a young age.

Lu Yunxiao said no more and acted with a serene composure.

What seemed a peaceful strike, upon reaching Lu Changsheng, exploded with astounding power.

Lu Changsheng formed a Magic Sword in his hand to gently parry.

Lu Yunxiao continued his moves, the sword unpretentious, the aura calm, flawlessly natural, but imbued with a certain dignity.

Lu Changsheng could see that his son’s mind was truly quiet and seamless, akin to a state of Sword Heart Clarity, quite enigmatic.

"Not bad, not bad, the sword unpretentious and calm, spirit like thunder yet to burst, heart as unyielding as a frozen lake."

Although Lu Changsheng found his son’s overly mature demeanor somewhat displeasing.

Yet his son’s remarkable Sword Dao talent at such a young age truly delighted him.

"I am still far from matching Father." Lu Yunxiao calmly stated, aware that his strength and sword techniques were trivial before his father.

Years ago, he remembered hearing his parents’ chats, his father seemed to have mentioned ambushing Nascent Soul cultivators?

"Ha ha, you’re only a few years old and already contemplating comparison with me."

Lu Changsheng laughed, continuing to spar in swordplay with his son.

"How long would it take for me to reach your level, Father?"

Lu Yunxiao asked, his Sword Embryo steady and unwavering, already capable of multitasking.

Under normal circumstances, his children might never reach his achievements in their lifetimes.

But if referring to his current cultivation level, being at Nascent Soul Second Layer...

"At least a hundred years."

Lu Changsheng said, fearing that a longer timeline might dampen his son’s enthusiasm.

Lu Yunxiao was not discouraged, aware that cultivation involved Qi Refinement, Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, and Nascent Soul.
