In the hall, Lu Yuanding and Uncle Fu both looked at Lu Changsheng, waiting for him to make a choice.

“Family Head, the terms here are naturally very good, and I am very satisfied with no objections,” said Lu Changsheng.

“It’s just that I have two questions. Whom do these children belong to, me or the Lu Family? And if I continue to live in the Lu Family, can I still take wives and concubines?”

Lu Changsheng spoke, saying so.

He wasn’t foolish enough to believe what Lu Yuanding said about thinking up the terms on the spot and suggesting he could raise any issues.

Although he had become an Elementary Talisman Master, he was still far from having the qualifications to negotiate with the Lu Family on an equal footing.

If he brought up leaving now, it would certainly affect how the Lu Family perceived him, their viewpoint, and arrangements.

Despite being dependant on others, he thought about leaving after getting through the initial stage.

But for now, he still needed the protection of the Lu Family to grow, and he would have to stay for a long time.

Thus, negotiating terms at this point was unwise.

The terms were more or less acceptable.

If they were harsh, then so be it.

Moreover, the contract from the Lu Family was not particularly harsh to the point of being unacceptable.

It was within a range that Lu Changsheng could accept.

After all, the Lu Family had nurtured him and allowed him to safely get through the initial stage; it was normal for him to pay a price in return.

Lu Changsheng was also confident in himself.

He believed that, once he had gotten through the early stage with the family, it would not be a big problem to repay the Lu Family threefold the resources with the help of the system and his second-grade talisman skills.

Not to mention, the lucre from making talismans with the materials provided by the Lu Family in the future, thanks to his hundred percent success rate in talisman-making, would earn him quite a bit.

It is well-known that the profits from magic artifacts, elixir medicines, and talismans are very high, bordering on excessive.

“???”

Lu Yuanding, upon hearing Lu Changsheng’s words, was startled and didn’t know what to say for a moment.

He had just seen Lu Changsheng’s hesitation and thought he was struggling with the terms and treatment.

He hadn’t expected Lu Changsheng to ask such questions.

Whom do the children belong to?

And whether he would still be able to take wives and concubines in the future?

It was simply…

But then he thought about how Lu Changsheng was just a common peasant, and he came to terms with it.

This was entirely a smallholder mentality, concerned only with a wife and children keeping a warm bed.

It was only because of a fortuitous coincidence that he possessed a Spiritual Root and stepped onto the path of immortality, while also having an innate talent for talisman making.

In Lu Yuanding’s view, this was even better, as it would make it easier for Lu Changsheng to integrate into the Lu Family and be of use to them.

Uncle Fu, on the other hand, was somewhat speechless because of Lu Changsheng’s questions.

He thought to himself that Lu Changsheng really had a mind full of lust for women.

After having taken nine Lu Family women, he was still not satisfied and was thinking about taking more wives and concubines.

It was fortunate that the servants he had previously arranged for Lu Changsheng were all older women; if they had been young and beautiful maids, they probably would have been spoiled by now.

It wasn’t that he was unwilling to part with the girls; he truly wished that Lu Changsheng would focus on the Talisman Path instead of being constantly engrossed in his desires for women.

Lu Miaoge, on the other hand, remained as indifferent as ever, her demeanor otherworldly, her thoughts unknown.

“Haha, don’t worry,” Lu Yuanding laughed, “According to these terms, you will be a son-in-law to our Qingzhu Lu Family, not just an added member. Naturally, all the children are yours.”

“As for taking wives and concubines, that’s your freedom. Our Lu Family naturally won’t interfere,” Lu Yuanding continued.

They valued Lu Changsheng as a person.

The talents and worth that Lu Changsheng displayed, a few children, and worldly women were trivial in their eyes.

“Thank you, Family Head!”

“Then I have no other questions,” Lu Changsheng said as he made an obeisance with his hands.

Immediately after, Lu Yuanding had Uncle Fu bring out the contract that Lu Changsheng had signed earlier to dissolve it.

And had a new contract signed with Lu Changsheng on the Spiritual Contract.

“From now on, consider the Lu Family your own home,” Lu Yuanding said with a gentle, scholarly smile.

He then gently patted Lu Changsheng’s shoulder and continued, “In the next few days, I will have someone prepare your identity plaque and arrange for your residence in Qingzhu Valley. Once everything is set up, Uncle Fu will notify you.”

“For the next few days, you’ll still stay here. As for your welfare and treatment, it will start from this month,” he added.

Lu Changsheng was slightly startled, aware that the other party was buying his favor.

But undeniably, these actions and words were indeed comforting; he nodded and said with his hands cupped, “Yes, Changsheng thanks the Family Head.”

Thereupon, Lu Yuanding, together with Uncle Fu and Lu Miaoge, departed.

Lu Changsheng went out to see them off.

“Sigh!”

Watching the three leave, Lu Changsheng took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.

From now on, he would be considered as having secured his footing in the Lu Family, wouldn’t he?

Afterward, a group of wives and concubines also hurried over.

Surrounding Lu Changsheng, the Family Head asked if his visit was due to Lu becoming a Talisman Master.

Ever since they learned that Lu Changsheng could draw First Grade talismans two days ago, they had been even more anticipating this than Lu Changsheng himself.

Lu Changsheng didn’t conceal anything and spoke the truth.

He told the women that in some time, his whole family would be able to move and live in Qingzhu Valley with the children.

Upon hearing this news, all the women were unexpectedly overjoyed, their eyes looking at Lu Changsheng with even deeper affection and tenderness.

…

The next day.

News of Lu Changsheng becoming an Elementary Talisman Master and soon moving to Qingzhu Valley spread throughout Qingzhu Villa.

This news was like throwing a huge rock into a calm lake, creating ripples upon ripples.

It made the Lu Family disciples in Qingzhu Villa extremely envious and jealous of Lu Changsheng.

You should know, despite being Lu Family disciples, they weren’t qualified to live in Qingzhu Valley and could only reside in Qingzhu Villa.

Yet now, Lu Changsheng, a son-in-law from another clan, was able to move into Qingzhu Valley.

This implied that Lu Changsheng’s status as a son-in-law was already higher than theirs.

As for the group of Immortal Seedlings who had arrived at the Lu Family along with Lu Changsheng, they were even more envious to the point of grinding their teeth.

There’s a saying that one fears not only the hardship of one’s brothers, but also their driving of luxury cars.

Usually, they wouldn’t compare themselves with the Lu Family disciples.

But like them, Lu Changsheng was also discarded by the Qingyun Sect and moreover, he was a son-in-law who had married into the Lu Family.

Seeing Lu Changsheng’s achievement now naturally sparked their envy, jealousy, and discomfort.

They secretly cursed their lack of talent in this area.

No matter what they thought, now that Lu Changsheng had become an Elementary Talisman Master, they chose to ingratiate themselves with him.

One after another, they came to offer congratulations and present gifts.

After all, having been in contact with cultivation for so long, everyone knew the value of a twenty-year-old Talisman Master.

Not just the Immortal Seedlings, many among the Lu Family disciples of Qingzhu Villa also put aside their pride to come to Lu Changsheng’s house to offer congratulations and gifts, seeking to make his acquaintance.

“Changsheng, congratulations, congratulations!”

Li Feiyu from next door was the first to come over, bringing his wife to celebrate.

He also brought a box of Spiritual Tea.

He had broken through to the Innate Realm six months ago and was now capable of impregnation; his wife was also pregnant.

“Thank you. We’re friends; you didn’t need to bring anything. That’s very polite of you.”

Lu Changsheng came forward with a smile.

He could see that Li Feiyu was somewhat disappointed.

After all, Li Feiyu had been devoted to cultivation, and with a Seventh Grade Spiritual Root, he had always been far ahead of Lu Changsheng in terms of cultivation level.

Now that Lu Changsheng had become an Elementary Talisman Master, overtaking him on a shortcut with a bright future far exceeding his own.

Of course, Li Feiyu was genuinely happy for Lu Changsheng becoming a Talisman Master.

He wasn’t the narrow-minded type who couldn’t bear to see others succeed.

Over the past two-plus years, he had formed a very good relationship with Lu Changsheng.

“It’s no big deal, such a joyous occasion deserves a gift. How could I come empty-handed?”

Seeing that Lu Changsheng had no pretenses and was the same as before, Li Feiyu also responded with a smile.

Afterward, the two of them caught up with each other and chatted leisurely as one after another, people arrived with gifts to offer their congratulations.

After receiving visitors throughout the day to offer their congratulations, Lu Changsheng looked at the gifts he had received that day and realized he had gotten quite a few.

Some gave Spirit Stones directly, others gave Spiritual Tea, Spirit Fruits, and materials for Talisman Making; in total, he had received roughly fifty-six Spirit Stones.

This made Lu Changsheng sigh in amazement.

If in the future he were to have a child and hold a banquet, wouldn’t he receive so many gifts that his hands would grow tired?

But this was just a thought.

With the Blessing of Many Children System, Lu Changsheng’s approach to his future was to be prudent in everything he did and establish good relationships.

After all, he had a family and not a few children, so he needed to pay attention to his reputation.

Such matters, being done once or twice, were fine, but doing them excessively would affect his reputation and how others perceived him.

It wasn’t necessary and could be more trouble than it was worth.

In the following days, Lu Changsheng continued his usual routine, calmly practicing cultivation, spending time with his children at home, while waiting for Uncle Fu’s news.

Meanwhile, his wives had joyful expressions as they went to meet their sisters and close friends, visiting and chatting.

Simply put, they were showing off the fact that Lu Changsheng had become a Talisman Master.

This made the sisters and friends who were married to other Immortal Seedlings envious, jealous, and resentful.

They secretly lamented why they hadn’t married Lu Changsheng.

Lu Changsheng observed this behavior and said nothing.

After all, his wives were people, not baby-making machines, capable of emotions and desires.

For now, this was acceptable and caused no harm, but he could already foresee that in the future, his numerous wives and descendants were bound to cause trouble for him, ‘the old ancestor’, implicating him in their troubles.

A family had its benefits, but sometimes it could also be a burden.

But that’s the nature of cultivation, gains come with losses.

Having chosen this path with the Blessing of Many Children System, Lu Changsheng was mentally prepared for it.
