He listed a talisman inventory and brought a batch of talisman-making materials.

He hoped that Lu Changsheng would dedicate more time in the following period to drawing talismans according to the list.

“Rest assured, Family Head.”

“In the time to come, I will spend more time on drawing talismans.”

Lu Changsheng glanced at the list and nodded in agreement.

He also knew that the friction between the Chen Family and the Lu Family had become increasingly severe.

It was almost as if they were preparing for war.

In such a situation, the Lu Family was nearly in a state of preparing for battle.

They needed to stockpile more elixir medicines, talismans, and magic artifacts for the upcoming confrontation.

And at this time, as a talisman master of the Lu Family, he also had the duty to contribute and support the family’s supplies.

“Alright, you will be busy during this period.”

Lu Yuanding patted Lu Changsheng on the shoulder and spoke in a warm voice.

After saying a few words briefly, he then left without lingering.

Apparently, the situation of the Lu Family was so pressing that the Family Head himself was very busy.

After Lu Yuanding left, Lu Miaoyun came to ask what the Family Head had come for this time.

Lu Changsheng did not conceal the truth and told her straightforwardly.

“I heard from grandma that not long ago, there was a minor dispute at the Spirit Stone mine jointly mined by our family and the Chen Family.”

“Three days ago, the Great Elder took many juniors to oversee the Spirit Stone mine.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Miaoyun spoke.

“Is it that serious?”

Lu Changsheng was somewhat surprised.

He knew there had been constant friction between the Lu Family and the Chen Family.

But he hadn’t expected it to escalate to this extent.

Now they had reached the point where disputes erupted, and the Great Elder had to go and oversee the situation directly.

Then Lu Changsheng asked with some confusion, “Wasn’t that Spirit Stone mine halted by the intervention of the Qingyun Sect, which made a judgment to allow the Chen Family and the Lu Family to mine it together?”

“How could the Chen Family dare to make a move under these circumstances?”

Lu Changsheng knew about the Spirit Stone mine matter from more than a decade ago.

At that time, the Lu Family and the Chen Family had fought over the mine, resulting in many casualties.

It was precisely because of this that Lu Yuanding went to the Qingyun Sect to recruit a son-in-law to replenish the Lu Family with fresh blood.

“I’ve asked grandma about this question too.”

“Grandma said that the Chen Family is just starting trouble in secret, finding excuses to come cause trouble, and haven’t fully ignited the conflict.”

“In this case, the Qingyun Sect would not intervene or care.”

Lu Miaoyun said with some indignation.

“I see.”

Lu Changsheng nodded slightly.

“Indeed, the Chen Family dares to do this because they know it won’t provoke the Qingyun Sect.”

“Or rather, as long as the Qingyun Sect’s forty percent share of profits remains unaffected, the Qingyun Sect would not bother itself with the grievances and disputes between the Chen Family and the Lu Family.”

“After all, no matter what happens between the Chen Family and the Lu Family, or even if other forces intervene, it still wouldn’t affect the interests of the Qingyun Sect.”

Lu Changsheng instantly understood the crux of the issue.

In such matters, it would be difficult to rely on the Qingyun Sect as the arbitrator.

After all, the Cultivation World at the end of the day is a place where the strong prey upon the weak.

Although a certain level of reputation and face might be considered, it wouldn’t go that far.

“The reason for the escalation between the Chen Family and the Lu Family might also be related to the Purple Shadow Secret Realm.”

“Not long ago, Lu Yuanshan returned from the Purple Shadow Secret Realm, which surely caused the Chen Family to be wary.”

“Now they are making a move against the Lu Family to test our attitude and to distract us.”

“Otherwise, if a new Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator emerges from the Lu Family, it will be the Chen Family who’ll be restless.”

Lu Changsheng thought to himself, tentatively guessing why the matter had escalated so quickly.

“If so, the grudge between the Chen Family and the Lu Family will likely escalate with the frictions and lead to an outbreak.”

“One even fiercer than the battle between the Lu Family and the Chen Family ten years ago.”

Lu Changsheng thought to himself.

The grudge between the Chen Family and the Lu Family, which started ten years ago, showed no signs of reconciliation.

Over the years, there had been no indications of any truce.

Just like previously, when he was accompanying Lu Yuanding back to Qingzhu Mountain, they had encountered an assassination by the Chen Family.

“Originally, I thought that with the Lu Family Ancestor around, there would be peace for at least the next two to three years, but the turmoil has come so fast.”

“The fact that the Great Elder has personally led people there indicates the Lu Family’s tough stance in retaliation.”

“Is it because the Lu Family had gains in the Purple Shadow Secret Realm and feels confident? Or is it because they are just putting on a show of strength while being weak inside?”

Lu Changsheng pondered.

He had been thinking about sending Lu Ping’an and a group of children to the secular world next year.

With the situation escalating so quickly now, he felt that it was necessary to do it sooner.

But at the moment, he couldn’t rest assured to take a group of children to the secular world either.

Who knew if the Chen Family would, just like before, send people to lie in wait on certain routes outside Qingzhu Mountain?

“There’s no rush for the time being, let’s just observe for now.”

“As long as the Lu Family Ancestor is not on his deathbed, it’s unlikely that the Chen Family would blatantly tear their facade and start a war.”

“Moreover, with the Formation guarding Qingzhu Mountain and the Foundation Establishment Ancestor presiding, even two or three Great Cultivators at Foundation Establishment level would not be able to breach it.”

Lu Changsheng was not too anxious or thrown off balance.

The situation had just begun and had not reached a point where it would affect him.

In the following time, Lu Changsheng also spent more time making talismans each day, contributing talismans to the family.

These contributed talismans, of course, were not given for free.

The Lu Family would calculate contribution rewards.

Considering the materials provided by the Lu Family for talisman making, the price was about half the original cost.

It was a decent deal.

After all, the initial investment by the Lu Family in resources to cultivate him was intended for future returns.

Before he knew it, more than three months had passed.

The dispute between the Lu Family and the Chen Family had not affected Lu Changsheng.

Or rather, just as Lu Changsheng predicted, the dispute was merely a probe.

It was unable to extend its impact to Qingzhu Mountain or affect the Lu Family.
