Chapter 153: Chapter 107 The Legend of the Merfolk!
“Not bad, you’ve just had your Foundation Establishment breakthrough recently, don’t spread this out yet.”
Lu Li whispered cautiously.
“I understand.”
Zhuang Guxue nodded solemnly, looking obedient.
The two quickly returned to the cave, and after exchanging thoughts for more than an hour, the sky gradually darkened.
Lu Li turned his head, looked at her ethereal beauty, and smiled, “It’s getting late, let’s rest.”
Zhuang Guxue’s face turned red, and she did not speak.
Soon after, Lu Li led her deeper into the secret chamber.
In no time, a rustling sound began to emerge from inside, which eventually grew increasingly intense, lasting several hours.
The moon quietly hid among the clouds.
…
…
…
The next day, early in the morning.
Golden sunlight bathed the earth.
In the cave at the foot of the mountain, Lu Li slowly opened his eyes.
His head still resting on a jade-like arm, with strands of a delicate fragrance lingering by his side, making him somewhat restless.
He had slept refreshingly.
At this moment, Zhuang Guxue’s cheeks still bore a hint of blush, her eyes slightly closed, pretending to sleep.
“Xue Er, let’s meet the family this afternoon.”
Lu Li smiled.
“After that, I’m planning to go out for a while; it might take some time.”
Zhuang Guxue nodded and whispered, “Mm… I’ll stay with the clan. Be careful outside.”
The two then lingered affectionately until the afternoon.
At this time, the Lu Family and a group of clansmen gathered together in the square at the mountain’s foot.
There was a cacophony of voices.
They had heard since yesterday that the Clan Leader had brought back a beautiful female cultivator and were intensely curious.
Some of the clansmen who had seen her boasted to the others.
“They say the old ancestor is taking a concubine; she’s quite young, her Qi Refinement is complete, and she is strikingly beautiful.”
The crowd began to discuss fervently.
Then, two tunnelling lights rapidly approached from the distant woods and landed on the high platform within moments.
It was Lu Li and Zhuang Guxue.
Zhuang Guxue, dressed in white, was radiant and stunning, with eyes gleaming like pools of spring water after the previous day’s nourishment.
She stood quietly by Lu Li, a slight smile on her lips.
“We pay our respects to Aunt Xue.”
The gathered clansmen all stood up and bowed down reverently.
As the Clan Leader’s first concubine, representing the old ancestor’s face, she was not someone they could afford to offend.
Moreover, since the Clan Leader currently had no Daoist couple, this person was likely to receive much affection from him.
“Please, there’s no need for such formalities; today’s main purpose is to get to know the clansmen better. I hope for everyone’s support in the future.”
Zhuang Guxue brushed a lock of hair and smiled.
“We wouldn’t dare.”
The crowd responded again with reverence.
Seeing this, Lu Li smiled and said, “Everyone, please sit.”
The cultivators then sat down, eating Spirit Fruit and drinking Spiritual Wine.
Shortly after, Lu Li stood up to leave, and the atmosphere on site grew warmer.
Zhuang Guxue also quickly integrated into the collective of the Lu Family and became familiar with Lu Yuling and others.
On discovering that Zhuang Guxue was an Array Master, they were all visibly astonished.
Several Array Masters within the clan began to discuss with her and were even more amazed to find that she was extremely proficient in Arrays.
They all exclaimed at the Clan Leader’s good fortune, as the clan would now have a legacy of a second-order Array Master.
This also indirectly strengthened the clan’s foundation.
…

Lu Li left Mystic Moon Island and leaped into the Celestial Abyss, soaring through endless clouds.
The Gang Wind blew fiercely around him, whistling through his robes.
Only after breaking through the second Divine Map and greatly enhancing his Divine Power did his speed increase significantly.
Using Divine Skills and tunneling technique, he covered about twelve miles in a single breath, which was quite astounding.
After an hour.
More than a thousand miles southeast of Mystic Moon Island, over an unfamiliar sea area.
Lu Li stood firmly on the sea surface, looking ahead at a medium-sized island.
Named Red Rock Island, it extended hundreds of miles, surrounded by a large Array, with ancient trees providing shade on a lush green landscape.
This island served as the trade island directly overseen by the Flowers Sect and was prosperous, often frequented by Foundation Establishment Cultivators. One could buy Spiritual Objects with Spirit Stones, including various special pieces of information.
He swiftly flew toward the island’s dock and landed on an open space ahead.
At that moment, a middle-aged beautiful matron emerged from behind the Array, dressed in a white skirt with a plum blossom embroidered on it.
Her Qi Refinement was complete, clearly a stationed cultivator of the Flowers Sect.
“May I ask how long you plan to stay on the island, senior?”
Sensing that Lu Li was a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, the matron was very respectful.
“Short-term stay.”
Lu Li answered with a smile.
The matron then took out a white Jade Token and handed it over.
Afterward, she turned around, her hands moving swiftly, sending streams of Pure Energy behind her, forming a two-person wide pathway in an instant.
Lu Li took the Jade Token and walked through.
Passing through the Array, he was on a neat bluestone road leading directly to the heart of the market.
He walked among the bustling crowd, with some Qi Refinement cultivators stepping aside to give way, sensing his Foundation Establishment Cultivation.
Before long, Lu Li entered the market.
Shops on both sides were neatly arrayed, offering high-quality Spiritual Objects.
He walked straight forward until stopping at a corner.
Looking up, he saw a large shop with an extravagant exterior.
Three red characters “Heavenly Pavilion” were engraved above the door.
Lu Li stepped inside.
Upon entering, a black-robed elder sensed his presence and immediately greeted him.
The elder had white hair and a beard, with a Cultivation at the early stage of Foundation Establishment.
“Fellow Daoist seems unfamiliar, may I ask what information you are seeking? Our Heavenly Pavilion will surely satisfy you.”
The elder smiled kindly.
Lu Li’s expression was calm. “Does your establishment have any information on Dragon Transformation Grass or Dragon Saliva Stone?”
What do you think?
