Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family-Chapter 886 - 321: Brothers Talk, Movements from All Directions!_2

Chapter 886: Chapter 321: Brothers Talk, Movements from All Directions!_2

But in order to set an example for the family, Lu Miaoyun imposed very strict requirements on the behavior and character of Lu Yun and his siblings.

During his early years under the doting care of Qingzhu Mountain’s Fourth Elder, Lu Yun had been somewhat arrogant.

However, under Lu Miaoyun’s strict guidance, his personality gradually became subservient, always listening to his mother Lu Miaoyun’s arrangements, lacking in decisiveness and self-confidence.

In his usual conduct, he always tried to follow in his father Lu Changsheng’s footsteps, yet he only managed to mimic the surface, resulting in indecisiveness and being overly righteous.

This was not only Lu Yun’s problem; many of the Lu family’s sons shared this issue.

“I understand,”

...

Lu Yun nodded, then said with a bitter smile, “Brother Quanzhen, I’ve always thought that you would be better suited for the position of Family Head than me.”

“In two more years, when the family’s leadership term is up for renewal, if you are willing, I believe father will certainly agree.”

Lu Yun had always been aware of his own indecisiveness and lack of ruthlessness.

“Hehe, Brother Yun, do not underestimate yourself. With you as Family Head, at least the family is harmonious, and all your younger brothers and sisters acknowledge you,”

Lu Quanzhen said with a smile.

Although Lu Yun did lack ruthlessness and decisiveness,

he had always been diligent and fair in his role as Family Head, unprejudiced and uncorrupted by power, thus he was well-recognized by his siblings.

After the two brothers chatted casually for a while and settled on their plans, they began assigning tasks, mobilizing all the Lu family disciples.

…

“Tsk, tsk, tsk, the Zhao family, with nearly a thousand years of heritage, truly has quite a foundation,”

said Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge as they arrived at the cave mansion where the Zhao Family Ancestor had been in closed-door cultivation.

This place was at the Spiritual Spring of the White Tiger Mountain Spirit Vein, where the spiritual energy was very dense, having reached the level of second-order superior grade.

It’s not to say that the White Tiger Mountain Spirit Vein was second-order superior grade.

Rather, with only one Foundation Establishment Cultivator—the Zhao Family Ancestor—and a second-order Demon Beast on White Tiger Mountain, there was an abundance of spiritual energy.

Thus, through a Spirit Gathering Array, the concentration of spiritual energy in the cave mansion easily reached that of second-order superior grade.

Through the Origin Spirit Pupillary Art, Lu Changsheng could see that this Spirit Vein of White Tiger Mountain already showed signs of progressing towards a second-order superior grade Spirit Vein.

It would immediately be promoted to a second-order superior grade Spirit Vein with just one Spiritual Origin Pearl infused into it.

“However, this Spirit Vein is destined not to advance to a second-order superior grade,”

Lu Changsheng exhaled lightly,

preparing to extract part of the vein’s origin source to nourish his own family’s Spirit Vein.

However, to extract from the Spirit Vein, he still had to make some preparations.

Although he had acquired the skills of a Dragon Seeker, due to time constraints, he had not yet prepared the basic artifacts necessary for a Dragon Seeker.

Thus, Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge stationed themselves at White Tiger Mountain,

ordering Li Feiyu to take Lu Xianzhi, Lu Xiaoru, and the other children back to Bi Lake Mountain.

After all, these children had their own responsibilities within the family, and being away for too long would have an impact.

They only left Lu Quanzhen, Lu Yun, and Lu Ruyi behind to handle affairs here.

At this time, after reviewing the assets and expenditures of the Zhao family over the years, Lu Changsheng also came to understand why the Zhao Family Ancestor had coveted his family’s Spirit Stone mine.

Too poor!

The Zhao family’s conditions were decent and they once had their peak, but after the battle at Blackwater Pool, the family suffered heavy losses, leading to them scraping by just barely.

Therefore, the Zhao Family Ancestor increased the cultivation of the family members, which resulted in White Tiger Mountain running at a loss year after year.

It’s important to know that not every family is like Bi Lake Mountain, with a patriarch like Lu Changsheng,

who not only doesn’t rely on family profit for income but continuously digs into his own pockets to subsidize the family.

The White Tiger Mountain’s expenses were greater than its income, but the ancestral cultivation expenses couldn’t be skimped on, leading to the selling of many family possessions and a growing deficit.

Eight years ago, the Foundation Establishment hopeful cultivated by White Tiger Mountain failed their breakthrough, plunging White Tiger Mountain into even more dire straits, and making the past years extremely difficult.

“Alas, although the Zhao family has a special skill in Artifact Refining, the majority of the family’s income comes from mineral veins,”

“Now that the mining has become severe, yet they haven’t developed new sources of profit, even if this incident hadn’t occurred, they would face a family crisis in a few decades,”

Lu Changsheng said, shaking his head.

Due to environmental conditions, White Tiger Mountain wasn’t suitable for the large-scale cultivation of Spiritual Medicine or Spirit Fields, so it was difficult for the Zhao family to find new sources of profit.

“The situation at White Tiger Mountain could be used to set up factories or open marketplaces,”

Lu Changsheng mused to himself.

However, he definitely wouldn’t use White Tiger Mountain to establish a marketplace.

He planned to establish a branch family here and build several factories after his children’s Foundation Establishment breakthroughs.

“However, to establish factories, we still need to deal with the Jin Family first, because if the two families are neighbors and White Tiger Mountain comes under attack, wouldn’t my losses be severe?”

Lu Changsheng shook his head and did not dwell on this idea, deciding that White Tiger Mountain would continue as usual for now and would be considered later.

Although White Tiger Mountain was poor, as a family with nearly a thousand years of heritage, it still had some foundation.

For example, in the areas of Magic Artifacts and Spiritual Artifacts.

The Zhao family didn’t have many ordinary Magic Artifacts and Spiritual Artifacts left, having sold most of them.

But the treasury still held several top-grade Artifacts and Spiritual Artifacts that had been passed down.

These were top-grade Artifacts and Spiritual Artifacts forged by previous generations of patriarchs for the family.

If sold, they could easily fetch tens of thousands of Spirit Stones.

Nonetheless, Lu Changsheng naturally wouldn’t sell these Artifacts but chose to keep them for his own family’s use.

…

The next day,

the news about Bi Lake Mountain and White Tiger Mountain immediately spread, like a boulder thrown into a pond, creating huge ripples in the surrounding area,

and the news also quickly spread throughout the entire Qingyun Region!

Because it was truly astounding!

It wasn’t that Bi Lake Mountain had taken over White Tiger Mountain!

It was that Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge, together, had defeated Jin Zan, the Great Elder of Jinlong Ridge Jin Family!

And during the battle, they had called upon a Foundation Establishment friend for help, and also revealed a second-order Demon Beast!
