Chapter 2225: 599
After entering Yue Country, Lu Changsheng let the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng enter the Tianyuan Lotus.
The Liangyue War erupted, and Yue Country was on full alert. If the aura of the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng was detected, it could easily cause unnecessary trouble.
Moreover, coming to visit his wife and children required his true body to appear.
If he were to appear on the frontline of the battlefield without anyone knowing, it would only arouse suspicion.
Then Lu Changsheng threw out a Third Rank Spirit Boat and let his daughter Lu Qingqi control it, heading towards the battlefield frontline.
"The situation is not optimistic."
Lu Changsheng, dressed in a broad cyan robe, stood with his hands behind his back on the spirit boat, looking at the occasional mountains, family spirit lands, marketplaces, and cities along the way, unable to help but sigh.
It could be seen that the years of war had already severely impacted Yue Country, far less prosperous and bustling than in earlier years.
Along the way, Lu Changsheng even saw many spirit lands abandoned, like ruins, with no one managing or tending them.
Lu Changsheng knew this was because cultivators from enemy countries had sneaked into the rear to destroy and incite rebellion.However, after the destruction, these spirit lands and marketplaces remained unrestored and unreconstructed, which showed the seriousness of the issue.
As they continued forward, the patrolling and inspecting cultivators gradually increased.
Many of the patrolling and inspecting cultivators were from Jiang Country and recognized Lu Changsheng, the Changsheng True Master of Bi Lake Mountain.
Or rather, it was necessary for the patrolling and inspecting cultivators to recognize people.
And it was essential to recognize the Nascent Soul Immortals from countries like Yue, Jiang, Liang, and Wu to verify their identity.
On this day, just as they were about to reach the Qingyun Sect’s base, Lu Changsheng suddenly sensed a faint fluctuation of mana and the scent of blood from afar.
His mind stirred, and his divine sense extended.
"Hmm!?"
Lu Changsheng raised an eyebrow slightly and took over the control of the spirit boat from his daughter, Lu Qingqi, fully activating the flying boat, and dashed towards the combat area.
"Boom, boom, boom—"
At this moment, a Second Rank spirit land was in ruin, with flames everywhere.
Several Qingyun Sect cultivators, severely injured, were surrounded and attacked by a False Core Immortal and three Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Seeing Lu Changsheng’s spirit boat approaching, the cultivators on both sides were startled, unsure whether the newcomers were friends or foes.
However, among the Qingyun Sect disciples, one immediately recognized Lu Changsheng with a look of joy and respectfully shouted, "Is it Changsheng True Master? These are Yuan Country cultivators; please, True Master, assist us!"
Before he could finish his words, Lu Changsheng had already made his move.
A talisman several feet large appeared above his head, then flew towards the Yuan Country cultivators, imprisoning and suppressing them all.
While traveling outside, Lu Changsheng always remembered his identity as "Changsheng True Master" and his training in the Talisman Path cultivation technique.
So, naturally, his actions had to align with his identity.
"Father even knows sister’s spell and is better at it than her!"
Seeing this, Lu Qingqi parted her red lips slightly, somewhat amazed.
Although she knew that Talisman Formation was her father’s famous technique, she had never seen him use many Talisman Path methods. She had, however, witnessed him slay a Core Formation Cultivator with one strike.
"Thank you, Changsheng True Master!"
"Greetings, Changsheng True Master!"
These Qingyun Sect cultivators were awed to see Lu Changsheng suppress the False Core Immortal who had been overwhelming them, all stepping forward to bow in salute.
"Zhaoyang, just call me brother-in-law."
Lu Changsheng looked at a man in his thirties, with a heroic face and calm demeanor, among the crowd, and said with a smile.
This man was none other than his wife Xia Zhiyue’s brother, Xia Zhaoyang.
He didn’t pay much attention to this brother-in-law.
But he knew that the latter was doing well in Qingyun Sect, even forming a Dao Companion with the daughter of a False Core Immortal.
Though now at the Eighth Level of Foundation Building, with little hope of Core Formation, with some effort, he still had a reasonable chance at a False Core in the future.
"Brother-in-law!"
Upon hearing this, Xia Zhaoyang immediately called out to Lu Changsheng, though still with some reverence in his expression.
Then he asked why Lu Changsheng had come to Yue Country, whether he had also been summoned.
But the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family had contributed enough to this war.
Unless the Qingyun Sect intended to constrain them, Lu Changsheng, a Nascent Soul Immortal, would not be on the frontline.
"I’ve been making talismans in closed-door cultivation for a long time, so I came out for a walk. Do you know where Miao Ge True Man or Qing Yi True Man are presently?"
Lu Changsheng asked with his hands behind his back, his presence like an ancient tree, serene and unspeakably profound.
"Miao Ge True Man has been stationed at Yulin Lake earlier, but as for Qing Yi True Man, responsible for patrol and enforcement, he moves unpredictably, so I don’t know," Xia Zhaoyang replied with a slight thought and respectful tone.
Lu Changsheng nodded slightly, then asked if the war in Yue Country had become so dangerous now, with enemy cultivators attacking even the rear.
With a bitter smile, Xia Zhaoyang replied that the situation was very unfavorable now.
Especially a few months ago, when the "Red Dragon Qi Family," the top clan in Yue Country, betrayed and defected to Liang Country, dealing a heavy blow to Yue Country, leading many enemy cultivators into the territory.
Over the years, Jiang Country had been fully supporting Yue Country.
But Liang Country and Yuan Country then chose to heavily target the three sects of Qingyun Sect, Luoxia Sect, and Spirit Taming Sect, causing them to hesitate and not dare to lend aid again.
Just earlier, they came to check the situation upon receiving news.
Who would have thought these Yuan Country cultivators, instead of fleeing after annihilating this family, would lay an ambush here.
"If not for your timely arrival, brother-in-law, we would probably have met with misfortune."
Xia Zhaoyang said with lingering fear, thinking he should apply to return to the sect later and not continue here.
"Thank you, Changsheng True Master!"
Several Foundation Establishment cultivators nearby hurriedly expressed their gratitude to Lu Changsheng.
"By the way, brother-in-law, I remember Xingyang and Qing Xuan were arranged to display their abilities at the Pray Family, but it was too far, and I couldn’t know the specific situation here."
