Chapter 725: Luminous Eye, Testing Swords in the Purple Shadow Secret Realm (2)

His words and eyes conveyed respect and admiration.

Not only for Lu Miaoyun, his official wife!

But also for a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator, the Foundation Establishment Ancestor!

Then, Lu Changsheng called his son, Lu Yun, and instructed him to prepare for the Foundation Establishment ceremony.

“Ah, mother, you’ve broken through to Foundation Establishment!?”

Lu Yun looked at Lu Miaoyun, who appeared to be only seventeen or eighteen, and was utterly baffled.

He had never imagined that in such a short time apart, his mother would break through to Foundation Establishment, leaving him baffled and feeling as if he were dreaming.

“Isn’t it quite normal for your mother to break through to Foundation Establishment?”

“If you diligently cultivate on ordinary days, you might break through to Foundation Establishment in the future.”

Lu Changsheng said to his son.

With so many children in the family, he couldn’t possibly attend to all of them personally.

But if the children were motivated enough, with the family’s resources, they could cultivate to the ninth level peak of Energy Refinement.

As a father, he would always be prepared with Foundation Establishment Elixirs and Foundation Establishment Spiritual Objects for them to attempt Foundation Establishment.

“How is that normal…”

Lu Yun really wanted to say this.

But still, he obediently responded respectfully, “Your son will certainly try his best.”

Then, he turned to his mother, Lu Miaoyun, and congratulated her, “Your son congratulates mother on her breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, her mana achieving great success, her Immortal Path flourishing, and the future prospects of reaching Core Formation!”

“Where did you learn such exaggerated flattery? The path of cultivation should be grounded and modest, don’t look beyond what is feasible.”

Lu Miaoyun chided her son with a glance.

“Yun’er isn’t wrong, with today’s breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, Core Formation is just a matter of time,” Lu Changsheng said with a smile.

“Husband~”

Thinking of the Heavenly Longevity Technique and the Myriad Spirits Heaven Dew, Lu Miaoyun felt that indeed, Core Formation was likely, and looked at Lu Changsheng with soft, tender eyes.

“???”

Lu Yun, witnessing this exchange, felt somewhat redundant, completely unsure of how to engage in his parents’ conversation.

“Husband, perhaps we don’t need a big ceremony, just a small family celebration would suffice.”

Lu Miaoyun suggested, her arm linked with Lu Changsheng’s.

She was not fond of large gatherings, feeling that a celebration with just the Bi Lake Mountain and Qingzhu Mountain families would suffice.

“It still needs to be done, though not too elaborately.”

“Just around Bi Lake Mountain, invite those who do business with us.”

Lu Changsheng pondered slightly, then said to his son, Lu Yun.

“Father, when should we set the date?”

Lu Yun immediately asked.

“Just handle those arrangements yourself.”

Lu Changsheng waved his hand dismissively, feeling it was a trivial matter.

“Let’s set it for two months from now;

keep it simple and just a bit lively.”

Lu Miaoyun, worried her son might misjudge, instructed.

After they had discussed everything, later that evening, Lu Changsheng hosted a family banquet to celebrate.

The other concubines, upon hearing the news, looked at Lu Miaoyun with eyes full of respect and envy.

Especially those who were daughters of families pledged to Lu Changsheng later on.

Their talents were quite decent, possessing Middle Grade Spiritual Roots.

If they cultivated diligently, and even if childbearing delayed them by three to five, or even ten years.

They still hoped to cultivate to the ninth level peak of Energy Refinement and attempt Foundation Establishment by the age of sixty.

But in their circumstances, without the resources, they dared not attempt Foundation Establishment.

To do so would be akin to seeking death!

Now, seeing Lu Miaoyun’s breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, they naturally guessed that Lu Changsheng had supported her with resources.

They felt envious, hoping one day to receive Lu Changsheng’s favor and support for Foundation Establishment.

“I wonder if I could give birth to a Qilin child.”

One concubine looked at her protruding belly, hoping it would perform well and produce a Qilin child, thereby gaining Lu Changsheng’s favor.

Having been at Bi Lake Mountain for many years, they had come to understand.

Without extraordinary capabilities, gaining Lu Changsheng’s favor would only come from the value of their children.

Like a concubine named Shao Yuyao, originally bought by Lu Changsheng as a maid,

but because she gave birth to a son with a Fourth Grade Spiritual Root, Lu Qingxuan, her conditions were far superior to many others.

Another concubine, Xia Zhiyue, who had given birth to four children all with Middle Grade Spiritual Roots, had even more enviable conditions.

…

Deep into the night,

At Bi Yun Peak, in an ancient-style room.

Afterward!

Afterward!

Afterward!

“Hmm, husband…”

Lu Miaoyun, who had just broken through to Foundation Establishment, was now limp as mud, her face fresh and ethereal, flushed with a lazy post-activity glow, her delicate brows and eyes exuding a charming allure.

Though she had broken through to Foundation Establishment and the Heavenly Longevity Technique endowed her with stamina and recovery beyond ordinary, she was still no match for Lu Changsheng’s vigor.

After all, Lu Changsheng’s stamina was simply astounding.

All these years, their intimate moments were usually spent with Qu Zhenzhen, or Little Qing, Xia Zhiyue, Shao Yuyao, among others.

It had been rare for them to have such alone time.

Today celebrating her breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, they revisited their wedding night together.
