My starting summon is a small skeleton-Chapter 277 - 274 Night Talk (Subscribe please)

Lu Haikong was stunned for a moment, but Lu Wu unceremoniously grabbed a bottle, unscrewed it, and took a big swig.

This was Lu Wu’s first time drinking since he had crossed over, as well as his first encounter with white liquor in both his lives.

And because that gulp was a bit too large, he choked a little, couldn’t help but cough violently, taking a while to recover.

This gave Lu Haikong a good laugh.

“Choking on a drink, kid, you’re no good. You’ve got none of my style from back in the day.”

“Why would I want your style from back in the day?”

Lu Haikong still hadn’t detected the abnormality in Lu Wu’s words and naturally said, “Because you’re my son!”

“Are you sure?! I don’t think it’s necessarily so.”

“You unfilial son!”

Hearing this, Lu Haikong immediately gave a kick in his direction.

“What’s wrong with you, saying that kind of thing?

New novel chapters are published on freewёbn૦νeɭ.com.

Also, your performance today was very poor. What did you mean by constantly spacing out when your mom was talking to you?

And why were you staring at your sister for so long? You almost scared her to tears.

Don’t think you can… just because you caught me slipping a little.”

“Whose body does my mom have?”

Lu Wu’s sudden question interrupted Lu Haikong’s rambling, leaving him completely frozen.

Lu Wu didn’t stop there, continuing to speak, “And what’s the deal with my sister’s body?

What’s the situation with that summoned beast of my mom’s?”

It took a while before he caught on.

He fell silent for a moment, took a hard swig of liquor, then turned to look at the lake.

After a while, Lu Haikong finally let out a long sigh.

“So it’s like that, huh? You’ve figured it out? That’s something. How much do you understand?”

Lu Wu took another gulp and turned to look at the lake, “If I’m not mistaken, my mom’s body should belong to someone else, and she should now be in a state of spirit possession.

With my sister, her body contains a strong death energy, and if we’re not careful, it could erupt at any moment, leading her toward Undead Transformation.

If that happens, she’ll either die or become an Undead creature without spiritual wisdom.

And my mom’s so-called ‘double-tailed cat’ isn’t actually a double-tailed cat at all, but a Netherworld Cat cub.

Its power even reaches the Lord Level and its talents are soul control and death energy control, mainly to stabilize the death energy in my sister’s body and the soul issue in my mom’s.”

Lu Wu’s outburst.

It took Lu Haikong aback; he knew Lu Wu had noticed something, but didn’t expect him to notice so much.

What puzzled him even more was, “How did you figure it out?”

Lu Wu didn’t answer directly, simply replying, “I’m said to be the most ‘demonic’ Cultivation Master!”

“You? A Cultivation Master?”

Lu Haikong pursed his lips, indicating disbelief.

Lu Wu glanced at him sideways, “Didn’t you read the message I sent you?”

“I was worried your mom might see, so I haven’t used that phone in a long time, hardly paying attention to any Summoner related news.

The only thing we watch on the family TV is either variety shows or melodramas; I’ve been dragged by your mom to watch hundreds of episodes of melodramas recently.

What do you mean by telling me this? You really became a Cultivation Master.”

Lu Wu realized, this old man wanted to change the subject.

Without another word, he snatched up Little Skeleton’s phone, pulled up his related information, and tossed it over to the old man.

Old Lu picked it up and looked.

He froze on the spot.

After a while, he looked at Lu Wu with a face full of doubt, “Are you really my son?

Back in the day, I was well known as a ‘cultivation idiot’; how could I have fathered a son with such demonic talent in cultivation?”

“Where is this sense of superiority coming from for you?

Does being a ‘cultivation idiot’ make you proud?”

Lu Wu snatched the phone from Lu Haikong’s hand and returned it to the resentful-looking Little Skeleton.

“Let’s get back to what we were just talking about.

What’s the situation with my mom? And am I really your son?”

“Not, I get why you’d ask about your mom’s condition, but asking if you’re really my son is what kind of situation?”

“I’ve observed it already. My mom’s condition must’ve been going on for ten to twenty years.

That means it should’ve been like this since before I was born.

Under such circumstances, if she really gave birth to me, my current state should be similar to my sister’s.

So, I suspect I’m not her biological child.”

After finishing, Lu Wu even kicked Lu Haikong, “Hurry up and tell me, are we biologically related or not?

If we’re not related, let’s sever this father-son relationship at once.

Make an announcement to the whole world.

I don’t want someone popping up every other day, kidnapping me, and locking me up for ten or fifteen days.

While you’re at it, tell me about all those women you’ve been with who have daughters, because if I can’t be your son, I can still be your son-in-law.”

Lu Wu’s words almost destroyed the atmosphere, and Lu Haikong’s head was covered in metaphorical black lines.

He slapped Lu Wu on the back of the head.

Grinding his teeth angrily, “My Lu Family has been loyal for generations, how could I have fathered such a scumbag as you?”

Look at that resentful expression.

Anyone who didn’t know better might think Lu Wu was the kind of scumbag that deserted dozens or hundreds of people.

After slapping him, Lu Haikong gave an explanation.

“Let me tell you, don’t think about all that nonsense.

You’re my own flesh and blood. Do you really think I traveled for two hundred days a year for nothing?

It’s all because your mother insisted on having a son.

To conceive you, I don’t know how much effort it took, and it was a full ten years to solve your problem.

Just as I had resolved your issue and hadn’t had a few good years to myself, your mother again wanted to give me a daughter.

You have no idea how exhausting that was, your sister’s problem still hasn’t been completely fixed.”

However, Lu Wu didn’t just take his word for it and asked how Lu Haikong had solved it last time.

Regarding this, Lu Haikong didn’t hide anything and explained in detail.

After hearing the explanation, Lu Wu pondered it carefully.

“That method is brilliant, who thought of it?

Also, why not use it on my sister?”

“Your sister’s Death Energy is much stronger than yours; it’s not so easy to resolve, but we’re almost there. We just need the right opportunity to handle it.”

Lu Haikong outright ignored Lu Wu’s first question.

Lu Wu didn’t press on it but instead asked about Li Ruyu’s current situation.

Since this topic had come up.

Lu Haikong decided to no longer hide the truth from Lu Wu and roughly explained the reason why Li Ruyu had become this way.

Lu Wu initially thought there might be some complicated story behind it.

But there wasn’t, it was surprisingly simple.

Or rather, Lu Haikong made it sound incredibly simple.

His exact words were, “Your mom was my first love, who had passed away due to illness. Then I heard about something that could grant any wish, found it, passed the preliminary tests, and then your mom was resurrected, just like that!”

“Is that all?”

Lu Wu was very disappointed with his father’s storytelling ability.

The same story, if given to Nu Xiao, wouldn’t just be told better but with more flair, stretching out to several million words before calling it quits. Yet in Lu Haikong’s mouth, it was just this dry sentence.

Lu Wu inquired further, but there were many details Lu Haikong was unwilling to discuss.

For instance, who told him about this information?

What was the thing that could grant any wish?

Whose body did Li Ruyu have?

Lu Haikong didn’t answer any of these.

The only question he did answer was about the preconditions for granting the wish.

“Gaining the true hearts of ninety-nine girls!

That’s the precondition to making the wish come true!”

Lu Haikong gave Lu Wu a definitive answer.

To this, Lu Wu responded with a “Heh!”

And gave the old man a few more kicks.

“Do you really think I’m an idiot? What kind of ridiculous condition is that?

You’re clearly trying to legitimize and rationalize your scumbag behavior, not a chance!

Let me tell you,

you, Lu Haikong, are defined as a scumbag in my book, a confirmed case that’ll never change in this lifetime!”

After finishing, Lu Wu guzzled down a bottle of liquor.

Then he went back to his room to sleep with Little Skeleton.

With Lu Wu gone back to sleep, only Lu Haikong was left in the pavilion.

He too guzzled the bottle of liquor and gazed at the moon’s reflection on the lake, murmuring to himself, “Scumbag, huh? Hmm, I guess I am indeed a scumbag, no mistake about that!”
