After all, the income from the Lu Family and his own sales of talismans to Hong Yi and the Spiritual Talisman Shop.

Altogether, it only comes to two or three hundred Spirit Stones a month.

Compared to before, it could naturally be considered a substantial amount.

But with so many wives and children, and their diet consisting of Spirit Rice, spiritual vegetables, Spiritual Tea, and demon beast meat, it’s also quite an expense.

Lu Changsheng had calculated that these expenses amounted to seventy or eighty Spirit Stones each month.

He would occasionally buy small gifts and trinkets for his wives and children, which also cost a pretty penny.

Add to that his own cultivation needs for purchasing Elixir Medicines, as well as routine purchases, and he spends a considerable amount of Spirit Stones.

So, he hadn’t saved many Spirit Stones.

Like the Second Rank Puppet he crafted, it still hadn’t been fitted with Middle Grade Spirit Stones.

It was because he couldn’t save much money.

“However, now that I’ve revealed myself as a Superior Grade Talisman Master, once I can stably provide Superior Grade Talismans after some time, my income will increase significantly.”

Lu Changsheng let out a sigh.

Although he is known to the outside world as a Superior Grade Talisman Master.

His success rate in Talisman Making will have to be steadily demonstrated, it can’t happen overnight.

So, the talismans he usually crafts, as well as those for the Lu Family’s missions, still tend to be of the Middle Grade.

Once he can stably reveal Superior Grade Talismans, his income within the Lu Family will increase significantly.

“Moreover, at this stage, what matters most to me is the improvement of my strength and cultivation level.”

“With the Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture, once I’ve converted all my spiritual power into Seven Luminaries spiritual power, I will be able to consume Elixir Medicines without any inhibitions.”

“And raise my cultivation level and strength at the fastest speed!”

“As long as my strength and cultivation level increase, not only will my income increase, but finding wives and maids will also become much easier.”

Lu Changsheng pondered in his heart.

Planning to focus his energy mainly on cultivation for the upcoming period.

If his strength increased, what man would lack in wives and concubines!

After all, in this world, cultivation level and strength are paramount.

With strength, fairies, goddesses, witches, princesses, and empresses were not an issue.

Half a month later.

Inside the Spiritual Talisman Shop.

Lu Changsheng was crafting talismans.

When he heard from Zhang Shan that Lu Miaoge had arrived.

He immediately went downstairs to greet her.

“Changsheng.”

When Lu Miaoge saw Lu Changsheng, she smiled and nodded.

She was still dressed in her snow-white garments, her face as clear and exquisite as the snow itself, her hair lightly tied and cascading down her back, exuding an ethereal and elegant charm.

“Sister Miaoge, you’re here.”

“I’m sorry to trouble you this time.”

Lu Changsheng said to Lu Miaoge in a familiar manner.

Afterwards, he went with Lu Miaoge to the third floor, picked up the Spiritual Tea from the table, and poured her a cup.

“It’s no trouble, I’m not busy usually.”

Lu Miaoge said softly, her voice clear and melodiously captivating.

“I’ve still inconvenienced you.”

“But if you have other matters and need to leave, just let me know, and I’ll come over.”

“I don’t have much to attend to on this trip back, so I can come over at any time.”

Lu Changsheng spoke up.

He intended to return mainly to focus on his cultivation and spend more time with his wives and children.

It wasn’t to say that he wouldn’t come back after returning.

Although he didn’t care much for the income of this Spiritual Talisman Shop.

It would still be somewhat inconvenient on Qingzhu Mountain.

In due time, he would also need to visit Nine Dragons Marketplace to buy some things or handle some matters.

“Okay, got it.”

Lu Miaoge nodded lightly.

She then smiled and said, “By the way, congratulations on becoming a Superior Grade Talisman Master.”

“It was just a stroke of luck, not comparable to you, Sister Miaoge. I also owe a lot to your guidance back then.”

At these words, Lu Changsheng smiled.

When both he and Lu Miaoge were at the Spiritual Talisman Shop, she would occasionally pay attention to his progress in Talisman Making and teach him the craft.

Though he didn’t need it, her guidance was a kind gesture.

Saying this now was to reinforce their relationship, as it had been quite a while since he’d seen Lu Miaoge.

“When do you plan to return to Qingzhu Mountain?”

Lu Miaoge asked with a light smile.

“The Second Elder is about ready to go back, so I plan to return with him.”

Lu Changsheng replied.

With the Second Elder present, he naturally prepared to hitch a ride on the tailwind.

At the same time, he would bring Lu Zi’er, Lu Qing’er, and Little Qing back with him.

The other maids, on the other hand, would stay in Nine Dragons Marketplace for the time being.

After all, the house was rented for five years; he would have to come back at that time.

Moreover, keeping the maids here would provide him with an extra reason to return to Nine Dragons Marketplace in the future.

“Good, then I will stay here for the time being.”

“When you want to return, just let me know in advance.”

Lu Miaoge nodded slightly.

Afterward, the two of them chatted for a while, talking about past events involving Lu Miaoyang and topics related to Talisman Making.

Seeing that their conversation was winding down, Lu Changsheng invited Lu Miaoge to have a meal at Jade Meal Pavilion.

Upon arriving at Jade Meal Pavilion and seeing Yu Maocheng, he too informed him of his plans.

He conveyed that he would be returning to Qingzhu Mountain and that any matters could be addressed to him there through the mail.

Although there probably wouldn’t be any issues, and he wasn’t leaving never to return,

he still felt the need to notify this long-time acquaintance and friend.

Once home, he also informed Gao He of his plans.

As for Xia Long, he was not at home.

He remembered that the last time he saw him was three to four months ago.

He couldn’t help but worry about his neighbor, fearing that something unexpected might have happened to him.

In the blink of an eye, another half month passed.

That day, the Second Elder sent someone to the Spiritual Talisman Shop to inform Lu Changsheng of his return to Qingzhu Mountain.

Lu Changsheng inquired about the number of spots available on the Second Elder’s Flying Boat.

But he was told there were three spots.

“Only three spots?”

Lu Changsheng furrowed his brow upon hearing this.

He had planned to take Lu Zi’er, Lu Qing’er, and Little Qing back with him this time.

If there were only three spots, that meant only the three ladies could take the Flying Boat while he would have to ride the Iron Feather Eagle.

“Changsheng, if you are bringing a large entourage of wives, concubines, and maids, you can hire a Spirit Boat to take you back.”

Seeing Lu Changsheng’s expression, Lu Miaoge spoke up.

She knew that on this trip back, Lu Changsheng intended to spend some time with his wives and children, and to rest and relax.

Under such circumstances, he would naturally bring his wives and maids back with him.

“Oh, they have that service within the Marketplace?”

Lu Changsheng was somewhat surprised to hear this.

He had been in Nine Dragons Marketplace for quite a while and was unaware that one could hire a Spirit Boat to transport people.

If that was the case, he thought of taking Guan Xin, Yu Yao, Shao Yuyao, Xiao Yueru, Yun Qianqian, and the five children back to Qingzhu Mountain as well.

After all,

he planned to spend a long time on Qingzhu Mountain, focusing on his cultivation and spending time with his family.

It would be better to have all his consorts and children stay at Qingzhu Mountain.

Although the matter with the Lu Family Ancestor had made the situation for the Lu Family not very optimistic,

there was no need to be too concerned for at least the next few years.

“Within the Marketplace, the Spiritual Boat Pavilion handles the business of transporting cultivators; they usually travel between it and several other marketplaces.”

“You can charter a Spirit Boat directly to Qingzhu Mountain, but as for the price, I am not quite sure,” said Lu Miaoge, her face lovely and her voice soft and gentle.

“Alright, thank you, Sister Miaoge. I will go to the Spiritual Boat Pavilion and ask,” Lu Changsheng replied immediately upon hearing her words.

He was aware of the Spiritual Boat Pavilion.

They not only sold Flying Boats and Spirit Boats,

but also had seven or eight large Spirit Boats specifically for transporting cultivators and goods,

conducting trades with other marketplaces and powers.

However, he hadn’t realized they also offered charters.

Without delay, Lu Changsheng left and headed to the Spiritual Boat Pavilion.

He inquired about the price to charter a Spirit Boat to Qingzhu Mountain.

After asking about the number of passengers, the person in charge at the Spiritual Boat Pavilion told Lu Changsheng that it would cost a total of one hundred sixty Spirit Stones.

On hearing the price, Lu Changsheng’s first thought was that it was expensive.

He wanted to bargain,

but the other party immediately stated that they did not negotiate prices,

saying that this type of charter included personal escorts to ensure safety.

Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng nodded,

paid a deposit of fifty Spirit Stones, and reserved a Spirit Boat.

They were scheduled to depart three days later, heading straight for Qingzhu Mountain.
