Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 2857: Journey to the Forbidden Sea!

Shen Yiren’s heart trembled, and she remained silent.

Indeed, if she couldn’t calmly accept these things, how could she break through the heart barrier and overcome the Demonic Tribulation?

One must know, the Demonic Tribulation infiltrates without a trace, illuminating the deepest parts of one’s heart.

"If the Third Palace Master insists on risking the fall due to the Demonic Tribulation to break through to Nascent Soul, I won’t force it, and I’ll turn away now,"

"But I have one request, and that is to take my bloodline from the Goddess Palace with me."

Lu Changsheng’s face was no longer as gentle as before, instead showing a bit of cold dominance.

"No way!" Shen Yiren immediately refused angrily.

Earlier, she hoped that her son Shen Yuanming would recognize Lu Changsheng as his father.

But now, knowing Lu Changsheng’s situation, she didn’t want her son to know about his condition.

Lu Changsheng didn’t release the beauty in his arms, his tone softened slightly, and he said, "I have full confidence in the Third Palace Master."

"I believe that with you present, this child can receive good resources, education, and nurturing."

"But regarding your sister, I’m not assured, especially your second sister Shen Baishuang."

Lu Changsheng’s words were clear, implying that he believed Shen Yiren’s current situation had a low probability of breaking through to Nascent Soul.

Shen Yiren wanted to say that even if she fell, her son was still the Young Master of the Goddess Palace and would be cared for and nurtured by her sisters.

But she swallowed the words before they passed her lips.

She knew the core issue of this matter wasn’t there, but was actually about mutual trust.

The Lu True Monarch before her didn’t trust her two sisters.

If she wasn’t present, he wouldn’t want the child to remain at the Goddess Palace.

At that time, both sides might even fight over her son Shen Yuanming.

Shen Yiren’s expression was stunned, her teeth lightly biting her lip, momentarily unsure how to respond.

Lu Changsheng looked at Shen Yiren, whose struggling movement had paused, sighed softly, his gaze softened a bit, and he said, "Everyone has heart vulnerabilities. If you never confront and think about them, this hurdle can never be overcome."

As he spoke, he gently stroked the hair at her temples with his fingers, his voice carrying an irresistible tenderness, "You can try to accept this relationship, treating me as an ordinary Dao Companion, the child’s father."

"..." Shen Yiren thought Lu Changsheng’s words made sense, yet they felt somewhat off.

If this matter were so easy, why would it become a heart vulnerability?

Lu Changsheng released her, his gaze looking into the distance, hands clasped behind his back, and said, "The past incident at Bailu Palace was a heart barrier to the Third Palace Master, and how could it not be for me?"

"This not only disrupted many of my plans, but afterward, I also encountered the Ghost Ship amidst the Chaotic Flow of Void, being swept into the Land of Eternal Night."

"If not for the methods I carried over from a previous life, this lifetime would have been trapped and died in the Land of Eternal Night. You tell me, why am I able to face this matter calmly, and walk peacefully to the Goddess Palace?"

Lu Changsheng, donned in a green robe, handsome and calm, spoke with a serene detachment.

"Ghost Ship, Land of Eternal Night?"

As the Third Palace Master of the Goddess Palace, Shen Yiren naturally knew about the Ghost Ship, one of the four great plagues of Starry Sky Sea.

The Ghost Ship is unbelievably mysterious, and its origins are unknown.

Like a phantom wandering the Starry Sky Sea.

The records in ancient books about the Ghost Ship are also half true and half false.

Some say the Ghost Ship connects to a space fissure called the Netherworld;

Some say the Ghost Ship is a broken Supreme Treasure; some say it was a warship of a great power, for some unknown reason, the cultivators onboard perished, becoming the ship spirit, awaiting revenge;

No matter what, the danger of the Ghost Ship is undeniable, and most cultivators who have seen the Ghost Ship either go missing or die.

Shen Yiren did not expect that while escaping from the Goddess Palace, the Lu True Monarch encountered such a forbidden danger.

If it were to be calculated, this would be a deep-seated feud of life and death...

"Lu True Monarch..." Shen Yiren’s heart was in turmoil, wanting to apologize on behalf of her second sister.

But such experiences and encounters, how could an apology be enough to move on?

"I say these things to the Third Palace Master, without other meanings, merely to express that the path of cultivation is fraught with hardships and obstacles; we will encounter many events that seem insurmountable."

"But as long as you successfully cross them, looking back afterward, they are but a bit of wind and frost."

"Once the Third Palace Master breaks through the heart barrier and successfully reaches Nascent Soul, you’ll understand this mindset."

Lu Changsheng did not elaborate further on the matters of the Ghost Ship and the Land of Eternal Night.

Part of mentioning this was to add a sense of guilt to Shen Yiren’s heart.

The other part was addressed to Shen Jianjia.

Even though his Divine Sense hadn’t detected a third person,

Yet his Spiritual Sense inexplicably felt someone was observing his conversation with Shen Yiren.

Lu Changsheng believed in his Spiritual Sense.

He guessed that Shen Jianjia was employing some method to observe and eavesdrop on him and Shen Yiren.

"I’ve said all that I can, how you choose is up to you, Third Palace Master."

Lu Changsheng felt he had said enough, and there was no need to continue talking.

Shen Yiren was silent for a moment, then raised her gentle and beautiful face, and said, "Lu True Monarch, Yiren wants to try yesterday’s Heart Demon Illusion Realm again, could I trouble the True Monarch..."

Yesterday’s Heart Demon Illusion Realm, she benefited greatly.

The words just spoken caused slight changes in her condition again.

She wanted to use the Heart Demon Illusion Realm to directly contemplate and question her true intentions.

"Okay." Lu Changsheng nodded, operating the Six Desires Heart Demon Technique, invoking Shen Yiren’s heart demon, seven emotions, and six desires, to form a Heart Demon Illusion Realm.

Meanwhile, in the Goddess Hall, Shen Jianjia watched the jade mirror connected to the array formation restriction in front of her.

The mirror’s surface was reflecting Lu Changsheng and Shen Yiren.

Just as Lu Changsheng sensed, when the two met, Shen Jianjia used the array formation restriction within Shen Yiren’s palace to observe and listen to their conversation.

She could see that her sister was completely being led by this "old monster" Lu Changsheng.

But in terms of breaking through to Nascent Soul, her interests aligned with Lu Changsheng’s, so she didn’t intervene to stop it.
