"Mother, rest assured, thereâs no danger in slaying such a Third Rank demon beast."
Lu Qingshan laughed loudly, entered the mountain gate, and then saw Lu Miaoyun in the distance and cupped his hands, "Aunt."
"Qingshan, youâre back, are you unhurt?"
Lu Miaoyun looked at the young man with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, who appeared dignified and impressive. She asked with concern, feeling quite emotional.
The once most mischievous boy in the family had unknowingly grown into a high and mighty Nascent Soul Cultivator.
Looking at Lu Qingshan before her, she couldnât help but think of Qu Zhenzhenâs son, Lu Quanzhen.
He had also long since broken through to Core Formation, and her cousin Lu Miaogeâs son, Lu Qingxuan, showed promise of reaching Core Formation in the future;
Ling Zixiaoâs son, Lu Lingxiao, was extraordinarily talented, and his potential was in no way inferior to Lu Qingshanâs, making his Core Formation a certainty. Even Xia Zhizue had given birth to six Spiritual Root children, all attaining Foundation Establishment, and there was also Lu Xuanqian, such a prodigious grandson, she couldnât help but feel envious.
Among the official wife Dao Companions of the Lu Family, only she had yet to give birth to an exceptionally gifted child.
"Aunt, donât worry, Iâm fine."
Lu Qingshan grinned and said, then looked toward the True Man of the Azure Wolf next to him, "And who is this?"
"This is the True Man of the Azure Wolf from the Spirit Taming Sect. He heard that our Nine Netherhound advanced to Third Rank, so he came to witness it."
Lu Miaoyun said with a warm smile, her voice gentle.
"Nine Netherhound?"
Lu Qingshan was taken aback for a moment, not reacting immediately.
"Itâs Little Black."
Lu Miaohuan quickly reminded.
The True Man of the Azure Wolf next to them twitched his face at the words âLittle Blackâ, finding it hard to imagine a Third Rank Demon King being called such.
To a Beast Taming Cultivator like him, this was simply insulting.
"Oh, so Little Black has advanced to Third Rank?"
Lu Qingshan raised an eyebrow in surprise and astonishment.
Thinking about his fatherâs situation and methods, cultivating a Third Rank Demon King seemed reasonable, then he inquired about his sister Lu Qingzhu, Lu Qingqi, and his brother Lu Qingsong with his mother Lu Miaohuan.
"Little Bamboo and Little Qi should be at the Red Leaf Valley Market, and Qingsong is at the Great Dream Marsh..."
Lu Miaohuan said to her son, directly ignoring the True Man of the Azure Wolf beside them.
"By the way, Mother, is Father not home again?"
Lu Qingshan continued to ask.
"You sure know your father well."
Lu Miaohuan snorted in slight annoyance, finding that in past years it was fine, but now he spends increasingly long periods away.
"I thought so."
Lu Qingshan also found it a bit frustrating, returning home only to find his father not present.
At this, Lu Miaoyun spoke up, indicating that the True Man of the Azure Wolf was about to head to White Tiger Mountain to see Little Black. She suggested Lu Qingshan could go along to check it out as Lu Qingzhu and Lu Qingqi might also be there.
Lu Qingshan didnât have much interaction with the Nine Netherhound and wasnât particularly interested in this spiritual beast, but he understood the implication in Lu Miaoyunâs words and said with a smile, "Itâs been a long time since Iâve seen Little Black. Iâll go have a look."
Immediately, Lu Qingshan placed the Flame Lion into Bi Lake Mountain and flew towards White Tiger Mountain with Lu Chensha and the True Man of the Azure Wolf.
At this time, many Lu Family disciples, hearing the news, hurried over to observe the frozen Flame Lion.
Unexpectedly, they had seen a living Third Rank Demon King not long ago, and now they saw a dead one.
"Slew a Third Rank Demon King!"
"Iâve heard that demon beasts that advance to Third Rank Demon Kings awaken innate divine abilities, their combat power is not weaker than Nascent Soul Cultivators, and due to their robust physical bodies, their life force is tenacious, making them extremely difficult to slay."
"Indeed, except for the top-level talents, trying to slay a cultivator, demon beast, of the same rank is as difficult as ascending to the heavens!"
"Uncle Qingshan is not even a hundred years old and hasnât broken through to Core Formation for long, yet he can slay a Third Rank Demon King!"
"Is this what they call an invincible sword cultivator of the same rank..."
The Lu Family disciples looked at the frozen Flame Lion, marveling and discussing in admiration and respect for Lu Qingshan.
Wang Yanjing and her son, Lu Xuanqian, also came over to observe, shocked and envious, admonishing her son Lu Xuanqian not to be arrogant and to learn from these uncles.
Now, external forces realized that the Bi Lake Mountain Lu Familyâs true strength was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.
She, as a daughter-in-law, had naturally realized this long ago.
