Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 1932: 504: Lu Ping’an’s Wedding, Upgrading Bi Lake Mountain! (part 2)
Previously on Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family...
Yet, by crossing the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family, connections with various other clans began to fade away gradually, and some even cut them off entirely.
"Greetings, True Master Feixue."
As the wedding procession came back, Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge stepped out to welcome and host the visitors, offering cupped-fist salutes to Lan Ruoxue on the flying boat.
"True Master Changsheng, True Master Miaoge."
Lan Ruoxue gave a light nod, feeling a positive vibe toward Lu Miaoge while showing clear detachment from Lu Changsheng.
No special cause existed for this.
Just as a woman in cultivation, she held little regard for types like Lu Changsheng, overly sentimental and overly indulgent in desires.
Once they guided Lan Ruoxue to the central hall, everyone awaited the propitious time.
"From Great Dream Immortal City, True Master Luo arrives to offer a congratulatory gift..."
"From Qingyun Sect, Master Xiyue comes to join the celebration..."
During this period, an increasing number of powerful factions showed up one after another.
Not every Nascent Soul force sends a Nascent Soul Immortal in person to deliver gifts.
Typically, they send a False Core cultivator as the envoy for the presentation.
For example, Great Dream Immortal City had Hong Lian send a False Core Immortal to extend the felicitations.
"From Heavenly Sword Sect, True Master Zhao arrives to offer a congratulatory gift..."
Soon enough, yet another Nascent Soul Immortal from Heavenly Sword Sect made an appearance.
He had journeyed with Lan Ruoxue, but the procession's leisurely pace kept them from traveling as a group.
"Zhao Mingchou?"
To receive him, Lu Changsheng headed out and identified the True Master Zhao from Heavenly Sword Sect delivering the gift.
Previously, while using the alias Yangming True Master, he had dealt with Heavenly Sword Sect.
This individual traveled alongside the sect master of Heavenly Sword Sect, which stood out as unusual.
With his own strength now bolstered and having stepped into the Way of Divination, Lu Changsheng could pick up on certain details; this man was likely a Diviner!
"Why dispatch a Diviner from Heavenly Sword Sect alongside Lan Ruoxue, the mentor of young Qin?"
Lu Changsheng pondered inwardly, advancing with a friendly demeanor to welcome him.
Noticing Zhao Mingchou scanning Bi Lake Mountain like one appreciating the view, Lu Changsheng surmised the reason for his visit.
Qi Observation!
Achieving such growth in merely a century, boasting four Core Formation experts, many called them blessed by the heavens, drenched in luck.
Heavenly Sword Sect probably shared that view, hence dispatching Zhao Mingchou to gauge the fortune and aura of Bi Lake Mountain.
"Such scrutiny could only reinforce the notion that the Lu Family enjoys heavenly favor."
Having grasped Second Rank Divination, Lu Changsheng applied the Qi Observation Technique to assess his clan's destiny.
Likely due to the Mysterious Heaven Spiritual Vine's influence, the fortune at Bi Lake Mountain outshone that of other clans by a wide margin.
It appeared expansive and thriving, without any hint of waning.
Lu Changsheng knew nothing of Zhao Mingchou's prowess in divination or his skill with the Qi Observation technique.
However, barring him being a Fourth Rank Divination Grandmaster, uncovering fine details would prove tough; at best, he'd see Bi Lake Mountain's fortune blooming vibrantly.
"This Bi Lake Mountain, plainly a Second Rank Spirit Land, boasts such splendid fortune!"
Right then, as Zhao Mingchou conversed and chuckled with Lu Changsheng, a wave of shock and marvel stirred within him.
Fortune remains a slippery notion, and even a Diviner employing the Qi Observation technique catches only a fuzzy glimpse.
Even so, that fuzzy glimpse alone revealed something off about Bi Lake Mountain's fortune.
It was excessively vast!
Admittedly, fortune isn't fixed, shaped by fengshui, individuals, artifacts, and more.
Still, Bi Lake Mountain's fengshui held nothing remarkable, just average quality.
Even counting Lu Changsheng, Lu Miaoge, and Lu Ping’an—these three Nascent Soul Immortals—the fortune shouldn't climb to such heights!
Moreover, amid the steady state of Bi Lake Mountain's fortune, it displayed a gentle upward momentum!
This defies all reason!
Bi Lake Mountain's fortune didn't match what a Second Rank Spirit Land warranted, and it kept climbing steadily, utterly illogical.
"Is it possible that Lu Ping’an’s recent breakthrough to Core Formation has boosted Bi Lake Mountain’s fortune even further?"
"Yet his Core Formation happened just lately, and he hasn't settled in for long—how could the fortune rise so swiftly!"
Zhao Mingchou felt baffled, steering clear of ideas involving a Treasure of Fortune.
After all, items capable of swaying heavenly fortune were rare even for Heavenly Sword Sect.
How could the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family hold such an item?
Thus, after deep reflection, he settled on a single deduction: The Heavenly Talisman Lu Family—or more precisely, Lu Changsheng—must be a child of immense fortune, cherished by fate!
In that instant, he itched to apply the Qi Observation Technique directly on Lu Changsheng to glimpse his personal fortune.
But seeing it was uncertain, and such probing counted as rude and forbidden in the Cultivation World.
He curbed his urge with effort, intending to watch more closely afterward for any overlooked clues.
...
By the time the auspicious hour neared, envoys from nearly all factions had gathered.
Regarding those absent, Lu Changsheng paid them little mind, proceeding straight to commence the wedding.
With those words spoken, blue waves rolled forth, and Bi Lake Mountain glowed in five hues of light, as myriad spirit birds soared and swirled, filling the air with enchanting melodies.
Though not quite rivaling the splendor of the Dao Companion rite that Qingyun Sect arranged for Lu Changsheng and Xiao Xiyue, the spectacle fell only slightly short.
Beneath everyone's watchful eyes, Lu Ping’an and Qin Yi entered Biyun Grand Hall to conduct the matrimonial rite.
The initial bow honored the Great Dao's benevolence, for granting Spiritual Root and the destiny of Immortals!
The next bow expressed gratitude to parents and sect for guiding them onto the path of the Dao!
Thus, Lu Ping’an and Qin Yi first paid respects to Lu Changsheng, Lu Miaoge, Lan Ruoxue, and the rest, then directed bows toward Heavenly Sword Sect's direction.
The final bow was between the pair themselves!
Signifying that starting today, they would tread the Great Dao side by side, aiding one another in joy and hardship!
"On this blessed day, as the heavens rejoice, Lu Ping’an and Qin Yi unite their hearts with the Dao today, observed by the Great Dao itself, joined in matrimony at Bi Lake Mountain. May your Immortal journeys stretch endlessly, your bond endure forever, you cultivate past countless trials, achieve timeless life, light up the Immortal Sects, and bestow fortune upon endless lineages!"
