Cultivation: the Rise of a Live-In Son-In-Law-Chapter 311 - 309: Jiang Lingyue: Lu Ye Is Thinking About Me?! Red Cloud: The Saint Sons of Both Sects Defected—Was That Your Doing Too?
Thinking about the timeframe mentioned by the Red Cloud Fairy earlier, there are less than two weeks left until the Sect Secret Realm opens.
After contemplating for a moment, Lu Ye decided to return to the Red Cloud Sect.
His Grandmaster opportunity should lie within this upcoming opening of the Secret Realm.
"I need to go out again. If you have any issues, just contact me via the Communication Jade Token."
In the small courtyard, Lu Ye spoke calmly to Jiang Qingge, who was sitting across from him.
"Alright, you go ahead and handle your matters." Jiang Qingge gently nodded, stepping forward to help Lu Ye straighten his collar slightly.
"I’ll be waiting for you at home..."
This gesture now seemed perfectly natural for Jiang Qingge.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Ye said.
"Wang Xingluo from the City Lord’s Mansion is a hypocrite with a human face and beastly heart. If he gathers the families of Cloud Leaf City to seek Jiang Family’s help for something, don’t easily trust his words."
"If you encounter something you can’t handle, you can mention my name and seek Elder Tian Qing. He will assist you."
In the past two weeks, Lu Ye had been observing the movements of the City Lord’s Mansion.
He had even directly killed several waves of Wang Xingluo’s Dark Guards.
Lu Ye could guess that at this moment, Wang Xingluo was likely in a state of paranoia.
To prevent Wang Xingluo from using his undiscovered identity to rally the families of Cloud Leaf City for something, Lu Ye explained the situation to Jiang Qingge in advance.
"Actually, I had already guessed that you’re connected with Elder Tian; otherwise, given Elder Tian’s prior affiliation with the Tian Family, he wouldn’t have been so amicable with our Jiang Family."
Rolling her eyes slightly at Lu Ye, Jiang Qingge said, "It’s just that you thought I didn’t know."
Upon hearing this, Lu Ye wasn’t surprised.
Jiang Qingge’s mind was indeed much sharper than her sister’s.
After all, considering her status as the Nine Nether Empress, it wouldn’t make sense for her to be as clueless as Jiang Lingyue.
...
While Lu Ye was thinking this, far away at the Wuxiang Mountain, Jiang Lingyue sneezed several times, looking puzzled.
"Huh, who’s talking about me again..."
Her eyes shifted slightly, and Jiang Lingyue appeared somewhat pleased.
Could it be... that annoying brother-in-law Lu Ye?
There’s definitely a possibility!
After all, it’s been a while since they last met after leaving the Red Cloud Sect.
She thought, being so clever... Lu Ye must also be unable to stop thinking about her!
Jiang Lingyue believed she certainly wasn’t lacking in charm!
Thinking this, Jiang Lingyue couldn’t sit still anymore.
"I miss you too, you villain... Achoo!"
Saying this, Jiang Lingyue sneezed once more.
"No, I need to find something to do."
Filled with energy, Jiang Lingyue quickly left the small courtyard, heading towards Dan Peak.
Alchemy... she needed to earn points!
Just as Jiang Lingyue left the courtyard, Yu Yu, who wasn’t far away, followed out.
Watching the direction Junior Sister Jiang was heading, Yu Yu sighed.
"With such talent and effort, Junior Sister Jiang is bound to be successful, earning a place under Steward Su’s tutelage to learn the Alchemy Dao."
Now, with Su Liuying having advanced to a Tier Four Alchemy Master, her Alchemy Dao accomplishments were second only to the Pill Peak Master, who had been a Tier Four Alchemy Master for years.
In the sect, she was already a prominent figure, with other elders and even the Sect Leader needing to give her face.
The Wuxiang Sect’s Dan Peak Master is quite mysterious, rarely staying within the sect.
Therefore, Su Liuying, as a newly advanced Tier Four Alchemy Master, was essentially the only one in the sect.
And as Su Liuying’s sole disciple, Jiang Lingyue, with her budding ethereal beauty and lively personality,
had now become the object of admiration for many sect disciples who had intentions to pursue her.
Among them were not only other elders’ true disciples but also individuals with deep backgrounds from the mortal world’s dynasties.
"If others were to know, that Junior Sister Jiang actually already has someone in her heart, one wonders... what kind of expressions would they have?"
Thinking about this situation, Yu Yu couldn’t help but laugh.
Judging by Junior Sister Jiang’s conduct, it was evident that her feelings for her crush were already deeply rooted.
Others’ pursuit, no matter how persistent, would be a futile effort.
...
Jiang Family.
Jiang Qingge gazed in the direction Lu Ye had left earlier, her eyes fixated on the courtyard gate, not moving for a long time.
Suddenly, Jiang Qingge felt a headache, and couldn’t help but rub her temples.
Fortunately, the headache only lasted for a moment, disappearing in a blink, returning to normal.
But what Jiang Qingge didn’t know was...
At that moment, it seemed a faint imperial aura flickered across her delicate body.
"Strange, why does my head hurt?"
Shaking her head, a hint of confusion flashed in Jiang Qingge’s eyes.
Feeling this headache was somewhat peculiar, Jiang Qingge was slightly worried.
On the other side.
In the Red Cloud Sect, the sect was bustling with activity.
Ever since the unexpected appearance of a disciple like "Lu Xuan", he quickly became a model for the Northern Sect’s disciples.
The disciples of the Red Cloud Sect felt more motivated in their cultivation.
Watching this change across all disciples, the Red Cloud Fairy had mixed feelings of amusement and helplessness.
Honestly, even the Red Cloud Fairy did not anticipate the current scenario.
Originally, she simply intended to use the sect’s resources to persuade Lu Xuan to stay.
Unexpectedly, although Lu Xuan didn’t stay, he inadvertently ignited the sect disciples’ zeal for cultivation.
"This... could be considered a blessing in disguise; perhaps I should thank him." Red Cloud Fairy mumbled softly to herself.
Thinking of Lu Xuan, the Red Cloud Fairy was reminded.
With less than ten days left for the Secret Realm opening, yet he still hadn’t returned.
She was contemplating sending him a message to remind him not to miss the opportunity.
Otherwise, once the Secret Realm shuts, he’d have to wait for the next chance.
Then he would certainly claim it was intentional, and although Red Cloud wanted him to remain, she didn’t want to carry a nonexistent burden.
Just as she took out the Communication Jade Token, she saw a figure rapidly shooting over from afar...
The Red Cloud Fairy, with excellent eyesight, suddenly narrowed her eyes.
Indeed, speaking of Lu Xuan... there he was.
The person she was just muttering about appeared right before her eyes in the blink of an eye.
Moments later, Lu Ye, already donning the "Lu Xuan" mask on his way to the Red Cloud Sect, landed at the Sect Leader Peak’s summit.
Seeing the Red Cloud Fairy standing in the open space, Lu Ye said, "Is the Sect Master here specifically to welcome me?"
Just about to deny it, the Red Cloud Fairy recalled something, then continued, "Yes, I’ve come specifically to welcome you, after all, you’re the number one genius disciple returning to the sect from our Red Cloud Sect."
"Look, because of your immense prowess, even they are now filled with motivation."
The Red Cloud Fairy pointed towards the buildings on the mountainside, at the bustling disciples.
Turning her gaze to Lu Ye, the Red Cloud Fairy said, "Do you know what is being said about you outside?"
Lu Ye was quite curious and asked, "What are they saying?"
The Red Cloud Fairy, with a slight complexity, replied, "They’re saying... you’re the number one among the younger generation across the major sects in the Northern Territory!"
"Even Xiao Yun from the Myriad Laws Sect, the defected Five Poison Saint Son from the Five Poison Sect, and the defected Three Yin Saint Son... are not your match!"
Number one...
Lu Ye was surprised and asked, "Why is there such a saying? Under this identity, I shouldn’t have faced them in combat."
"Naturally, it was your two ventures into the Forbidden Land that made them feel ashamed in comparison, by the way..." Red Cloud seemed to remember something, and shifted the topic.
"Why did the Five Poison Saint Son and Three Yin Saint Son suddenly defect from their respective sects when they were doing well?"
"Could it be... you had a hand in this as well?"
