Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family
Chapter 231 - Chapter 231: Chapter 120: No, Lu Lang! _1Chapter 231: Chapter 120: No, Lu Lang! _1
Qingzhu Mountain wasn’t very far from Red Leaf Valley.
The journey was just over a thousand li.
It was precisely because of their proximity that both families often fought over resources around their clan territories, leading to conflicts.
An incident involving a Spirit Stone mine over ten years ago had become the flashpoint for all these conflicts.
It had led both families into an all-out conflict, creating an irreconcilable blood feud.
After the Lu Family’s main forces had traveled several hundred li,
Lu Changsheng saw a formidable and impressive army heading in their direction.
Leading this army was an elderly man with an old face and a tall figure, wearing a robe embroidered with flying birds.
He stood with his hands behind his back, his black bird-embroidered robe fluttering in the wind, riding atop a black hawk with a formidable presence.
Following him were three Flying Boats and a group of Cultivators riding Spirit Birds.
“Brother Lu, Daoist Yuan Zhong!”
The old man greeted the Lu Family Ancestor and Lu Yuanzhong with a clasped fist.
“Brother Bai! Daoist Bai!”
The Lu Family Ancestor and Lu Yuanzhong also returned the gesture to the Bai Family Ancestor.
After a brief exchange, they led their respective troops and hastened towards Red Leaf Valley.
It was clear they had planned to meet here.
“Is this the Hundred Birds Lake Bai Family and the Bai Family Ancestor?”
Lu Changsheng looked towards the large troop from the Bai Family traveling with them.
About sixty people in total.
Aside from the Bai Family Ancestor, who was a Foundation Building Great Cultivator,
the strength and the number of the Energy Refining Cultivators seemed roughly equal to those of the Lu Family.
However, Lu Changsheng knew that excluding Lu Yuanzhong, who had just recently achieved Foundation Establishment, the overall strength of the Bai Family was slightly stronger than the Lu Family’s.
It seemed the Bai Family hadn’t, like the Lu Family, completely emptied out their clan’s forces to commit to this battle.
“Hundred Birds Lake is teeming with Spirit Fish and other aquatic products, attracted by many Spirit Birds that come to the lake to hunt.”
“Thus, Bai Family Cultivators are mostly adept in the art of beast taming, not just fishing but also capturing and domesticating Spirit Birds to earn Spirit Stones.”
Lu Changsheng once again observed the Spirit Birds ridden by the Bai Family troops.
They were noticeably quite good.
Not just typical transport Spirit Birds like Iron Feather Eagles.
They ought to possess some combat capabilities.
The majestic black hawk beneath the feet of the Bai Family Ancestor, for instance, was probably a peak First Grade Demon Beast.
“When we arrive at Red Leaf Valley, you don’t need to disembark from the Flying Boat; just follow my instructions,” said the Fourth Elder as they neared Red Leaf Valley.
He began to instruct those on the Flying Boat, including Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoyun, on what to do upon arrival.
The first step was to form up.
Then, using Talismans and Attack Formations issued by the family, they would begin breaking through the Formation.
Once the Great Formation was breached, they would follow the Fourth Elder in the assault.
Clearly, the Lu Family and the Bai Family had a detailed plan prepared for this battle.
“Yes, grandma!”
“Yes, Fourth Elder!”
The people on the Flying Boat nodded and replied.
Two hours later,
“Everyone, get ready; we’re approaching Red Leaf Valley now!” Lu Yuanzhong announced, his booming voice reaching everyone’s ears.
The eager Lu Family young disciples, stirred upon hearing this, braced themselves and focused attentively.
“So this is Red Leaf Valley?”
Lu Changsheng gazed forward,
immediately spotting a place shrouded and obscured by Formations, hazy to the point where only a vast expanse of crimson could be seen.
This was his first visit to Red Leaf Valley.
He knew that, like Qingzhu Mountain, Red Leaf Valley was known for a particular type of red-leaf tree.
Meanwhile, within Red Leaf Valley,
“Not good, enemy attack!”
The Chen Family scouts stationed for patrol, seeing the Flying Boats and Cultivators approaching from afar in the sky toward Red Leaf Valley, instantly changed their expressions, realizing something was amiss.
They urgently relayed a message to their clan, signaling an enemy assault.
At the same time, they activated the Great Formation’s defenses at full strength.
The large forces of the Lu Family and the Bai Family arrived around Red Leaf Valley and began to fan out systematically.
They surrounded Red Leaf Valley from various directions.
Two Array Masters proficient in Formations then took out their instruments, beginning to set up Formations around the perimeter of Red Leaf Valley.
One was a Formation to prevent the Chen Family Cultivators from escaping.
The other was to break through the Chen Family’s Second Rank Great Formation.
“Everyone, get ready; begin breaking the Formation!”
The Lu Family Ancestor and the Bai Family Ancestor didn’t bother with pomp and ceremony; with a simple raise of their hands, they ordered everyone to start breaking the Formation.
The next moment.
“Boom, boom, boom!”
“Boom, boom, boom!”
“Boom, boom, boom!”
All Lu Family and Bai Family Cultivators pulled out Talismans, cast Spells, and launched bold Spiritual Light attacks slamming into the Second Rank Great Formation of Red Leaf Valley.
The Formation’s shield rippled and thundered in response.
Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoyun, along with the Fourth Elder, joined in the assault from the southeast side of Red Leaf Valley, activating their Talismans to bombard the Great Formation.
“It seems that war is always a drain on resources, no matter where,” Lu Changsheng couldn’t help thinking to himself as he watched the unfolding scene.
Even with three Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators from the Lu and Bai families, breaking through the Chen Family’s Second Rank Great Formation was not going to be easy.
They had no choice but to force their way through.
And such an assault was, frankly, just burning money.
Each wave of attacks cost hundreds of Spirit Stones.
To break through the Chen Family’s Second Rank Great Formation would likely require tens of thousands of Spirit Stones.
In front of Red Leaf Valley,
The Lu Family Ancestor looked towards the Great Formation of Red Leaf Valley,
and transmitted a message to Lu Yuanzhong who was beside him, “Yuan Zhong, when the Great Formation breaks, you stay back and press the attack, try not to get involved.”
“Otherwise, in desperation, Old Ghost Chen might decide to target you for a suicidal struggle.”
“I, the ancestor, don’t have much longer to live, so I have no worries. It’s a good opportunity to exterminate him and remove future troubles,” said the Lu Family Ancestor in a grave tone.
Although they had three Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators on their side,
facing a single Ancestor Chen, success seemed almost certain.
But there was always the chance that Ancestor Chen had some tricks up his sleeve.
