Longevity starts with dual cultivation

Chapter 266 Liuying Ziying: Can’t Wait

In the territory of the Shengyu Immortal Dynasty, deep in an unknown stone mountain, Ling Changqing's figure quietly emerged.

He looked around and made sure that no other creature noticed him, then he breathed a sigh of relief.

The Goddess Queen of the Great Xia Dynasty was too terrifying. If I continued to stay by her side, it was hard to say what would happen next, so it was better to seize the opportunity and run away.

As for how angry and unwilling Xia Qingying and her guards would be after he left, that was not something Ling Changqing needed to worry about.

"...This woman is indeed difficult to deal with. Master, you cannot control her now. You must at least reach the Nascent Soul True Lord realm before you can do that."

Gong Ling's sweet and charming voice sounded.

"Well, I know."

Ling Changqing said that he really didn't like the feeling that the situation was not under his control.

Xia Qingying has been in a high position for a long time and is known for her strong and overbearing personality. She is even more difficult to deal with than Luo Qingxuan and Bai Qingyi, and it is almost impossible to get along with her peacefully.

"Your current abilities are not enough. How could she actually detect something wrong? Does that mean that I have to wait until I advance to the Nascent Soul True Lord stage before I can eliminate the hidden danger?"

Ling Changqing asked again.

Gong Ling responded: "That's right. Only when your cultivation level is high enough, my body's recovery rate can be improved, and then I can awaken more great powers."

"understood."

Ling Changqing nodded silently. This kind of thing could not be rushed. Fortunately, he was not far from the Yuanying Zhenjun realm.

After pondering for a while, he turned back and entered the paradise of Jiyuan Star Palace, intending to talk to the girls.

As the main body of the Era Star Palace gradually recovered, the space inside has reached a scale of more than ten miles in radius, and the concentration of spiritual energy has become more abundant, which can satisfy the needs of many Nascent Soul True Lords to practice in it all year round.

Therefore, the women marked out an area here and decorated it as their boudoir, with facilities such as a beautiful jade embroidered bed, tables and chairs, carpets and screens, and hot spring baths.

When Ling Changqing had nothing to do, he would go in and talk to them and practice for a while.

At this time, Yu Yalan, Zhao Wanyi, Zhao Wanqing, Yu Youqin, Luo Qingxuan, Bai Qingyi, and Fu Yinxue were all chatting inside. They were wearing pearl hairpins, skirts and jackets, and their green and red floating on the water, and their intoxicating body fragrance filled the space.

"Husband, are you becoming more and more courageous?"

The girls were not surprised to see Ling Changqing come in. The bright and charming Yu Ya bit her red lips and teased with a smile.

"That's right. You even dared to provoke that tigress. Aren't you really afraid that she would capture you and imprison you in the secret hall of the underground palace for hundreds of years?"

Yu Youqin, who was dressed in a palace gown as white as snow, was intellectual and elegant. She frowned slightly and said coquettishly.

Ling Changqing said helplessly: "I didn't mean to provoke her. She just insisted on coming over. What can I do?"

Bai Qingyi, wearing a dark purple phoenix palace dress embroidered with a hundred flowers and cloud patterns, and a phoenix hairpin, smiled dignifiedly:

"You are not to blame for this, my husband. However, your fate with this person is not over yet. We will meet again sooner or later."

"By then, I should have reached the Spiritual Transformation Realm, right? I won't have to be afraid of her anymore."

Ling Changqing said.

If you are not strong enough, you won’t have enough say. If you don’t want to be controlled by the other party, you can only work hard to improve yourself.

Zhao Wanyi smiled and said, "Let's not talk about this. It's rare that my husband has some free time. Why don't you come and practice with us for a while?"

Upon hearing this, the girls stood up and gathered around Ling Changqing. Ling Changqing did not refuse. He thought that he should relax after just experiencing a fierce battle.

At this moment, a strong wind suddenly blew in the sky outside, and rolling dark clouds covered the sky and the sun.

Dozens of figures emitting terrifying auras appeared quietly, and many powerful divine thoughts that were as condensed as substance swept everywhere, almost digging three feet into the ground to explore every inch of the area.

After a long while, a cold and harsh voice sounded faintly: "Nothing was found. The son of luck should have gone in another direction!"

Another old voice sighed, "Your Majesty was indeed careless this time. Since you already know Ling Changqing's identity, you should have kept him stable at all costs. How could you be so hypocritical?"

"...That's right. Not to mention her, even if all the unmarried noble ladies of the royal family were given to him, it would be worth it. But because of a single thought, the Great Xia Dynasty missed the chance to unify this world. She... is really a sinner of the Dynasty!"

Another cold and pleasant voice came, and the anger in the tone was difficult to conceal.

"Forget it, let's keep looking. I hope we can still remedy the situation in time!"

The old man finally said.

Many figures suddenly disappeared into the distance, and the gloomy sky returned to normal immediately, as if nothing had happened just now.

After they left, several waves of monks of unknown origin came here one after another. After investigating without any results, they left in a hurry.

After seven days and seven nights.

Ling Changqing, who had been squeezed dry, dragged his exhausted body and climbed up from the unusually large jade-embroidered bed with some difficulty. Around him, there were plump, enchanting, snow-white and dazzling bodies lying in a disorderly manner.

He got up and soaked in the hot spring pool next door for a while. His body, which was on the verge of exhaustion, has recovered to its peak state of vigor and vitality.

After Ling Changqing put on his clothes, he came to the study area, took out dozens of storage instruments, and began to check and count the property and resources inside.

It didn't matter that he just saw it. Even Ling Changqing, who had seen a lot of huge wealth, couldn't help but be moved at this moment.

One of the magic-level storage bracelets was filled with mid-grade and high-grade spirit stones, the total number exceeding 100,000.

Another storage ring was filled with pill bottles of different styles. Each of the pill bottles contained third and fourth level pills, which were divided into different categories such as healing, restoring mana, increasing qi and vitality, improving cultivation, etc. The total number was hundreds and thousands.

In addition, there are various talismans, Taoist soldier puppets, disposable magical tools, formation flags, formation diagrams, etc., which are filled with different storage tools.

When Ling Changqing finished counting all the trophies, the number he came up with left him speechless for a long time.

This is a resource that is roughly equivalent to 300,000 high-quality spirit stones, which is equal to the Ling family's current financial income for fifteen years.

"...The Cui family and the Yuanying Zhenjun of the Taiqing Divine Dynasty are really wealthy. However, it is also possible that they are part of the logistical supplies for this expeditionary army?"

Ling Changqing pondered silently.

It is a common practice in the world of immortal cultivation that when a large number of cultivators go on an expedition, their logistical supplies are usually divided into many portions, which are carried and kept by cultivators above the Nascent Soul True Lord level. When needed, they are distributed per person.

Those Yuanying Zhenjuns killed by Xia Qingying before were probably the unlucky guys who were responsible for keeping logistical supplies in that legion. They were killed when she caught them.

"Well, if you think about it this way, I owe her a favor! Should I find a chance to pay her back in the future?"

Ling Changqing muttered to himself, of course this can't be rushed, he has to wait until he is able to ensure his own safety before considering this matter.

Although considering her status as the contemporary Divine Emperor of the Great Xia Divine Dynasty, this little thing is not worth mentioning.

However, with this resource support, the Ling family's future development can be accelerated again.

After finishing the cleaning, Ling Changqing went to talk to Luo Qingxuan and the other girls before leaving the paradise space. In the depths of the stone mountain outside, Ling Changqing's figure appeared again. Only then was the surroundings truly safe.

Seeing that the Wujian Gate on the Other Shore was already in a usable state, he decisively activated it and returned directly to the Zhao family's territory.

Shangguan Qingying was naturally delighted to see him come back. Although Ling Changqing had not been away for long this time, she still missed him very much.

In the inner room of the boudoir.

"...Husband, what did you do outside that even the guy from the Great Xia Dynasty is thinking about you?"

Deep in the brocade curtains, Shangguan Qingying's charming and plump body was lying beside him, her white jade-like, undulating waist and hip curves were clearly visible, her beautiful face was blushing like a rosy cloud, and she asked in a low voice.

"You know it too?"

Ling Changqing said in surprise. At this time, Zhao Wanyi and her sister had not met her yet, so she shouldn't know about this.

"Humph, the Great Xia Dynasty has publicly offered a reward to all the states for the whereabouts of the Son of Fortune, and also said... they also said that the Goddess Queen has chosen you as her husband. As long as you are willing, you can go to see her at any time and choose an auspicious day to get married!"

There was obvious jealousy in Shangguan Qingying's charming and soft voice.

"Is there still this?"

Ling Changqing was also a little confused. He didn't expect Xia Qingying to do such a thing and directly make the matter public.

After he slipped away that day, Xia Qingying was angry and regretful, and immediately ordered the guards around him to go out in full force to conduct a dragnet search of the area around Jinchen County.

Although nothing was gained in the end, the number of cultivators of the Great Xia Divine Dynasty in Yuzhou has increased more than tenfold in a short period of time.

The only secret mission they received was to track down Ling Changqing's whereabouts at all costs.

"Be careful next time, don't let those guys notice you again!"

Shangguan Qingying snorted, and hugged the beautiful boy tightly with her charming arms. She didn't dare to imagine the consequences of losing Ling Changqing.

"Well, don't worry, ma'am. I know the pros and cons."

Ling Changqing spoke softly, holding her smooth and tight waist and stroking it gently.

However, the forces of the surrounding states were obviously not happy to see the Great Xia Dynasty successfully obtain the Son of Fortune, and all kinds of conspiracies and plans must have been arranged in advance.

Ling Changqing was convinced that as long as he really intended to go to the Great Xia Dynasty to find Xia Qingying, he would be immediately intercepted by the spies lurking within the Dynasty and then kidnapped and taken back to their own territory.

Anyway, it is impossible for him to wander around outside in public with his true face now, otherwise all kinds of monsters will come to him at the first opportunity.

……

Yuzhou Goddess Mountains, the Liuying Family Headquarters.

In the magnificent and majestic palace, countless female cultivators from different families were constantly coming and going, and their beautiful figures were a sight to behold.

In the secret hall shielded by numerous formations and restrictions.

Liuying Ziying, with her hair piled up in emerald green and dressed in gorgeous attire, sat on the throne. Her extremely beautiful face looked dignified, just like a blooming peony, rich, dazzling, and gorgeous.

There were people in the family who were puzzled by some subtle changes in the head of the family, such as the sudden and significant increase in her luck and fortune, and also her cultivation level.

Of course, if Liuying Ziying didn’t say it herself, no one would dare to ask her directly. The authority of the head of the family should not be violated.

Under the throne stood Liuying Mengluan, Liuying Bingchan and twelve other stunningly beautiful women, ranging from lolita to teenage girls, mature ladies and other types.

Except for Liuying Mengluan, Liuying Bingchan was at the peak of the Golden Core Realm, and the other twelve women were all at the level of Yuanying Zhenjun. They were all carefully dressed and radiant.

Moreover, their spiritual roots and aptitudes are very good, all of them are at the upper earth level. The most outstanding one among them, Liuying Bingchan, is a heavenly spiritual root. However, because she is too young, she has not yet been promoted to the Nascent Soul True Lord.

"You...are all members of the clan who have gone through the most rigorous screening process of the clan, and your loyalty is beyond doubt."

After a long silence, Liuying Ziying said slowly:

"So this time, I will arrange for you to carry out a mission. It is top secret and you must not mention it to any of the clan members, not even your direct blood relatives or trusted maids!"

"I will follow the orders of the Patriarch!"

The girls of Liuying Mengluan all bowed and saluted, responding respectfully.

They had been summoned one by one by Liuying Ziying, and had to go through strict screening and examination by several groups of supreme elders before they were able to stand in front of the head of the family.

However, including the most favored Liuying Bingchan, all the women in the tribe didn't know what would happen next, because Liuying Ziying had never revealed anything to anyone.

Liuying Ziying nodded slightly, her eyes swept across their faces, and she transmitted her voice with her divine thoughts:
"From now on, Ling Changqing, the son of destiny, is the son-in-law of the family and your husband. Later, you will follow me to serve him."

"???"

Including Liuying Mengluan, all the clan girls present stood there in a daze, with expressions of disbelief and shock in their beautiful eyes.

Ling Changqing's whereabouts has become the biggest unsolved mystery in Yuzhou's immortal cultivation world. Many powerful people have been searching for him in secret, but have never found anything.

How come Ling Changqing was suddenly found by the head of the family and became their husband?

However, after a brief moment of surprise, the girls came to their senses and immediately understood what the head of the family meant, and the joy in their hearts was beyond words.

This means that a great opportunity has fallen upon them, a chance that will allow them to change their fate and live forever.

"Master, shall we set off with you now?"

Liuying Mengluan took a step forward and asked in a low voice, her soft and graceful voice trembling slightly.

Liuying Bingchan looked around and asked in confusion: "Master, those sisters haven't come yet, are they..."

What she meant were the clan girls whose names were on the marriage certificate. Logically speaking, since Ling Changqing's whereabouts were known, they should all be his Taoist companions.

Liuying Ziying frowned slightly, glared at her unhappily, and said:

"They can't act rashly now. Many eyes are on them both inside and outside the family! I took the risk to bring you two here."

"Yes, junior understands."

Liuying Bingchan said embarrassedly.

Thinking about it, this arrangement is a good idea, as long as I can meet Ling Changqing as soon as possible.

Liuying Ziying smiled, her expression softened a bit:
"I didn't want to do that in the first place, but for the sake of my family, I just can't wait any longer! How can I feel at ease if I don't send you to his bed right away?"

Liuying Mengluan: “…”
