Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family-Chapter 579: The Tactics of the Abyssal Ghoul Blossom, An Unprecedented Harvest! (2)
He didn’t even know how he died, how he had fallen.
He wanted to roar and struggle, but he couldn’t move an inch. His consciousness grew more and more blurry, and it felt like he was sinking into darkness.
As the Abyssal Ghoul Blossom completely devoured Xiahou Wuwo, its roots disappeared, reverting to its original appearance—beautiful, enchanting, and flawless. No one would have suspected the horror that had just occurred.
The ‘Dark Demon Corpse’ that was as huge as a small mountain also seemed to have its runes dimmed considerably.
Its flickering bull horns and eyes appeared to be extinguished and turned a greyish black color.
...
“This…”
Lu Miaoge, Ling Zixiao, and Xu Ruyin, who was not far away, witnessed this scene with surprise and suspicion, their minds in turmoil.
On one hand, they felt the Abyssal Ghoul Blossom’s methods were somewhat reminiscent of the sinister Demon Path.
On the other, they were shocked to see a False Core Immortal being subdued and devoured in such a manner; it was hard to believe.
After all, for them, a False Core Immortal was an exalted existence that was looked up to in their everyday lives!
“These methods do seem a bit demonic…”
Upon seeing this scene, Lu Changsheng’s eyes narrowed slightly, mumbling to himself.
If the Abyssal Ghoul Blossom’s methods were seen by others, it would undoubtedly be deemed demonic.
“However, now that Xiahou Wuwo is dead, I can go to Yue Country’s Jinyang Sect with peace of mind.”
Lu Changsheng exhaled softly.
Although the Mount Sumeru Tree King stood guard at home, making him unafraid of attacks, he would still feel somewhat uneasy as long as the other wasn’t dead.
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh—”
At that moment, magical treasures, spiritual artifacts, storage bags, and storage rings were expelled by the Abyssal Ghoul Blossom.
The Abyssal Ghoul Blossom not only fed on flesh, blood, and souls.
The remains of dead beings, and even spirit plants and spiritual materials, could be its food.
Even these magical treasures and spiritual artifacts could be corroded by it, turned into energy.
But of course, Lu Changsheng would not let it refine these items.
“Zi Xiao, Sister Miaoge, time to clean up the loot.”
Lu Changsheng chuckled softly, speaking to Lu Miaoge and Ling Zixiao in a gentle voice.
“Okay~”
Upon hearing his words, both women replied softly, not commenting further on the Abyssal Ghoul Blossom.
Ling Zixiao, who was currently studying the Twelve Capital Demon Gods Technique, didn’t care about such demonic methods at all.
While Lu Miaoge thought it seemed rather peculiar and wicked, she wouldn’t say anything about it.
However, Xu Ruyin couldn’t help but swallow hard, not expecting the demon plant to be so dreadful.
Being a practitioner of the ‘Beast Technique’, she was very sensitive to the aura of demon beasts.
The aura of the Abyssal Ghoul Blossom earlier had given her palpitations.
“Huh, so many spirit stones!? And two magical treasures!?”
Opening a storage ring and breaking its seals, Lu Changsheng was pleasantly surprised to find not only a pile of spirit stones and heavenly materials and earthly treasures but also two magical treasures. ⱤàΝꝋᛒĚş
One was a purple thunder bead the size of a fist.
Another was a fiery red, jade-like sharp little sword.
He took out the two treasures to inspect, and it seemed they were both life-bound magical treasures.
“Spiritual Origin Pearl, Foundation Establishment Elixir, Core Formation Spiritual Object…”
“So many spiritual ores, demon beast materials…”
Lu Miaoge and Ling Zixiao, examining a few storage bags, also cried out in surprise. They were somewhat astonished.
Because Xiahou Wuwo was indeed too wealthy, not fitting the profile of a False Core Immortal at all.
“My Lord, Xiahou Wuwo had just set up a magic artifact outside Bi Lake Mountain to interfere with the Great Formation’s operation, your concubine needs to check on it.”
At that moment, sensing something, Ling Zixiao spoke up.
“I’ll go with you, and we need to briefly reassure everyone after what just happened.”

Lu Changsheng nodded in agreement.
The recent assault on Bi Lake Mountain by Xiahou Wuwo, although brief, had caused quite a commotion.
As the Mountain Master, it was only natural for him to calm the situation.
Afterward, the two of them stepped out of Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven.
“My Lord!”
“Mountain Master!”
“Father! Daddy!”
At the foot of Bi Yun Peak, Lu Miaoyun, Lu Yun, Lu Ping’an, and others rushed forward with questions upon seeing Lu Changsheng and Ling Zixiao.
“Heh, it was just a Robber Cultivator who came to cause trouble, but it’s been dealt with.”
Lu Changsheng didn’t elaborate much.
Although the news of killing Xiahou Wuwo could be used to intimidate others to a certain extent,
and he could even claim a hefty bounty from Qingyun Sect,
once the news got out, explaining and justifying it would become difficult, and continuing to live discreetly would no longer be an option.
So, without a second thought, he fed the corpse to the Abyssal Ghoul Blossom.
After simply reassuring everyone that the Robber Cultivator had been destroyed by the family’s Great Formation and ordering the guard to stand down, Lu Changsheng and Ling Zixiao headed outside Bi Lake Mountain.
“This must be some kind of Formation Path magic artifact.”
Ling Zixiao examined the ‘Spirit-Restricting Stele’ softly saying so.
Then, along with Lu Changsheng, they tried to collect the eighteen ancient steles.
Now that Xiahou Wuwo was dead, it was easy for them to gather these steles.
After finishing up, the two returned into the Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven to continue sorting through the spoils of battle.
Such rich spoils made all three of them deeply moved.
“Hmm?”
Just then, Lu Changsheng received a ripple from the Abyssal Ghoul Blossom.
It signified that the memory fragments of Xiahou Wuwo had been extracted.
Raising his eyebrows, he moved beside the seductively beautiful blossom, laying his palm on the flower.
Immediately, a series of broken and disjointed images began to unfold before his eyes.
The memories were extremely chaotic, making it quite challenging to sort through the useful information, and it vastly drained his mental spirit.
“It’s rumored that the Xiahou Family are the covert descendants of the Heavenly Corpse Sect in Jin Kingdom… So, Ancestor Xiahou was once a disciple of the Heavenly Corpse Sect…”
“Back then, realizing that Qingyun Sect was targeting them, the Xiahou Family had sent a portion of their core descendants to Yue Country… Xiahou Wushang…”
“Tsk, tsks, I didn’t expect Xiahou Wuwo to actually take part in the beast tide in Imperial Spirit Sect’s Domain, becoming a traitor…”
