“Hmm, a marriage proposal?”

“Providing access to a Spiritual Vein Blessed Land and a Cultivation Manual?”

Those who had been eliminated and had to leave the mountain stirred with excitement upon hearing the words of the man in green.

When Lu Changsheng heard this, his heart was also moved.

Through his recent analysis, he concluded that if he could join a cultivation power, it would naturally be the best option.

As for the marriage proposal, becoming someone’s son-in-law was no big deal.

Cultivating, well, it wasn’t disgraceful.

However, he didn’t speak up, opting to wait and observe instead.

After all, there were no such things as pies falling from the sky.

He didn’t know anything about the situation with the Lu Family of Qingzhu Mountain.

Who knew what the specifics behind this marriage proposal were, if it was a mere façade?

“May I ask, Senior, what are the requirements for your son-in-law?”

“I remember that cultivation families usually don’t nurture foreign bloodlines, right?”

Immediately, someone in the crowd asked.

Among those who had been eliminated, there were many offspring of nobles, merchants, and even loose cultivators, who had a certain understanding of the cultivation world.

“Hehe, since my young friend asked, I, Lu, will not conceal it but will speak candidly,”

“In recent years, my Lu Family has lost quite a number of its youngsters, leading to a generational gap. That’s why we have made this exception to take in sons-in-law to replenish fresh bloodlines.”

“As for the requirements…”

“Within twenty years, you must father fifty offspring. If you father one with a Middle Grade Spiritual Root, or three with Lower Grade Spiritual Roots, you’ll be deemed to have completed the task.”

“During this period, not only will my Lu Family provide you with a Spiritual Vein Dojo and Cultivation Techniques, but you will also receive a certain quota of cultivation resources every month,”

the man in green said to the crowd, his face gentle and scholarly as he spoke slowly.

However, as soon as these words were spoken, many in the audience felt this was not a call for sons-in-law.

It was tantamount to looking for breeding pigs, soliciting people for reproduction!

After all, heterosexual relations were known to greatly deplete vital energy and essence.

For cultivators, even more so.

They had been eliminated by Qingyun Sect and were already of limited potential.

If they were to engage in such activities daily, their prospects in cultivation would probably be very limited, with little hope for significant accomplishments.

Lu Changsheng also twitched the corners of his lips slightly upon hearing this.

Indeed, fathering fifty children in twenty years seemed somewhat excessive.

Even if one were to father one child a year, there wouldn’t be fifty in twenty years.

It appeared that the Lu Family’s call for sons-in-law wasn’t one-on-one; each candidate might be matched with three or four wives.

However.

The more he thought about it, the more it seemed like not something he couldn’t accept?

Upon further reflection, Lu Changsheng even felt it was quite appealing and appropriate for him.

Not only would he have a place for cultivation, but he would also get wives and assistance with raising children.

It perfectly resolved the difficulties of his system’s initial stage.

Moreover, hearing such stringent requirements, Lu Changsheng felt somewhat relieved.

If the conditions weren’t harsh, how would these eliminated folks like him have a chance to join a cultivation family?

Hong Yi, who was beside him, saw a hint of interest on Lu Changsheng’s face and spoke.

“Lu Changsheng, I have heard about the Lu Family of Qingzhu Mountain; they are a proper cultivation family with a Foundation Establishment Ancestor within their ranks.”

“And indeed, as he said, they fought a large battle with the Chen Family of Red Leaf Valley over a Spirit Stone mine a few years ago, resulting in heavy losses of their young and strong.”

“If you have nowhere else to go, this could be an option for you,” Hong Yi said.

Previously, he had been haughty and somewhat dismissive of Lu Changsheng, Han Lin, and Zhao Qingqing due to his own status.

But now that Han Lin and Zhao Qingqing had entered Qingyun Sect while he was eliminated, his pride had all but dissipated, and he started to face reality.

He realized that once they embarked on the path to immortality, the gap between princes, generals, merchants, or servants would not be as significant.

If Lu Changsheng were to join a cultivation family, even if his future achievements were modest, he would still be another friend and another connection.

“Thank you for the reminder, Brother Hong,”

Lu Changsheng said, his remaining anxieties ebbing away after hearing this.

He felt becoming a son-in-law of the Lu Family was a very sensible choice for the time being.

With the system in hand, as long as he could get through the early phase, the sky would be the limit!

Right then, Lu Changsheng stepped forward to sign up.

“Brother Lu, let’s do this together.”

At this moment, Li Feiyu, as if making a difficult decision, spoke up.

“Brother Li, you want to join the Lu Family as well?”

Hong Yi was somewhat surprised to see Li Feiyu choosing to join the Lu Family.

Lu Changsheng was of peasant origin, which he could understand.

But Li Feiyu came from the Crimson Whale Gang, a sizeable faction, and as the Vice Gang Leader, he had decent conditions. Yet, he was willing to become this sort of son-in-law who serves like a breeding partner.

“Life is but a dream of a hundred years; once a chance for cultivation presents itself, it cannot be missed.”

Li Feiyu said in a deep voice.

Insiders knew the state of their own affairs. Although the Crimson Whale Gang was not bad, it wasn’t solely his father’s decision to make.

They also couldn’t provide too much wealth for his cultivation.

If he were to return, his future might be to take over his father’s position as the gang leader and live out an ordinary life.

But knowing that he had a Spiritual Root and could cultivate, he was unwilling to go back.

He had once seen his own father kowtow in front of a cultivator.

He knew that no matter how high one’s status in the secular world, or how advanced one’s martial skills, they were nothing but ants in the eyes of a cultivator.

So even if it was difficult, as long as there was a glimmer of opportunity, he would strive to pursue it!

At least he would have no regrets in the future!

“Then I wish Brother Li and Brother Lu an auspicious cultivation journey. If there’s anything in the future, feel free to send a letter to Ruyi Marquis Mansion.”

Hong Yi also understood the reasoning and didn’t try to persuade them further, bowing in farewell.

Being of noble birth, he would still have some financial resources at home and could continue with his cultivation, so he needn’t become a dependant son-in-law.

Suddenly.

Lu Changsheng and Li Feiyu came before the man in green clothes, indicating their willingness to join the Lu Family.

Upon hearing that Lu Changsheng only possessed a Ninth Grade Spiritual Root, the man in green showed a hint of hesitation.

Because the better the Spiritual Root, the greater the probability and higher the grade that the offspring will possess one.

However, seeing that Lu Changsheng and Li Feiyu were together, and with Li Feiyu having a Seventh Grade Spiritual Root, he still nodded his head.

“Have you thought this through? Once you go to Qingzhu Mountain, there’s no turning back, and you’ll need to sign a contract.”

“If you cannot meet the conditions within twenty years, not only will you have to compensate three times the resources, but you’ll also serve the Lu Family for ten years.”

The man in green said seriously.

“We’ve made our decision.”

Lu Changsheng and Li Feiyu exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.

About half an hour later, all twenty sons-in-law were recruited.

All were youths with humble backgrounds and no notable connections.

Not only those of noble birth could not lower their status to do this, but the man in green clothes also didn’t want anyone with a significant background.

“My name is Lu Yuanding, and I am the Patriarch of the Lu Family. From now on, you can address me as Family Head.”

“Now, follow me back to Qingzhu Mountain.”

Lu Yuanding said to Lu Changsheng and the others.

He then took out a golden thread bordered pouch and opened its mouth.

A series of white lights flew out from within, transforming into majestic horses with golden manes and sturdy limbs, the color of bright yellow.

“Ride horses?”

Many people were taken aback upon seeing these horses.

Previously, an Executor from Qingyun Sect had simply waved his sleeves, and those selected were mounted on auspicious clouds and flew away.

And now, following Lu Yuanding, they could only ride horses?

Lu Changsheng also felt that now that they were cultivators, riding horses seemed rather low.

“These are no ordinary horses. They are spiritual horses bred by the Lu Family, able to travel a thousand miles in a day, and you’ll manage even if you don’t know how to ride.”

Seeing the crowd’s disappointment, Lu Yuanding explained.

He had no other choice.

The Lu Family was but a small clan.

Although they possessed a Magic Flying Boat, it wouldn’t be used lightly on normal days.

Speaking of flying with others, it was even more out of the question.

With his Eighth Level Energy Refinement cultivation, even flying on his own would strain his spiritual power during long-distance travel, let alone flying with others.

With so many people, riding horses was the most convenient and fastest way.

And so, Lu Changsheng and the rest mounted the spiritual horses and left with Lu Yuanding.

At the foot of Qingyun Sect’s mountain, five cultivators from the Lu Family were waiting, accompanying them to prevent unexpected events on the road.
