Lu Manor.
Lu Sheng sat boldly in front of the painting of a pine tree and a black crow. He held a cup of tea in his hand and sipped it slowly. The refreshing aroma of the tea permeated the entire parlor. It was quiet and solemn.
"Kneel!"
Shang Qinglong kicked Yang Yundu's knee and sent him crashing to the ground in front of Lu Sheng.
Yang Yundu did not say a word. He tried to get up again, but was forced to kneel again by another kick. He had no choice but to accept his fate and stop moving.
Lu Sheng looked at the gentle-looking young scholar below him with an indifferent expression.
"Have you thought it through?"
Yang Yundu smiled bitterly.
"I didn't expect that after so many years of hiding, I would be dragged out because of this." He looked up at Lu Sheng.
"What will you do if I don't?"
Lu Sheng glanced at him.
"Divorce your current wife and formally marry Lu Yingying with betrothal gifts. Otherwise, I'll kill your entire family. Which … will you choose? "
Yang Yundu was stunned. He could tell from Lu Sheng's words that he was not joking. He was really going to make a move.
Since young, he had been taught by an extraordinary person and trained hard in evil arts. His strength grew stronger by the day. He did not expect to be discovered even at his current level.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll run away in the future?" Yang Yundu asked.
"If you run away, I'll kill your entire family," Lu Sheng said casually.
"But I'm not sincere with Lu Yingying. Aren't you afraid that I won't treat her well in the future? "
"If I don't treat you well, I'll kill your entire family," Lu Sheng continued casually.
"…" Yang Yundu felt that he could not communicate with the other party. He was an Intent Proficiency expert and a handsome young master. Was he really going to be forced to live with Lu Yingying forever?
He was not resigned to it.
"Any more questions?" Lu Sheng glanced at him.
"Do you really believe me? That I'll live with Lu Yingying forever? "Yang Yundu was in disbelief.
"No," Lu Sheng answered seriously. "But I believe in the saber in my hand."
Yang Yundu felt his balls aching.
It was clear that he didn't care whether he was a rapist or not. The attitude of the man in front of him was: no matter whether he was a good person or not, he would be caught, stuffed into a cage, and forced to do so with a knife.
It had to be said that this method was crude but effective.
Before long, Yang Yundu gave in. With his strength, he couldn't even move a single finger of Lu Sheng's. Who knew how many experts were surrounding the perimeter?
Even if he escaped, the vast lands of the Northern Lands belonged to Crimson Whale Sect. Where else could he run to?
After settling Yang Yundu's matter with the Yang Family, Lu Sheng made the necessary arrangements and handed them over to Jade Lotus to oversee. Then, he returned to Lu Manor to gather with the younger generation.
Autumn was bleak, and fallen leaves swirled in the air.
The next day.
In the little garden of the Lu Manor.
Lu Sheng was casually chatting with Lu Tianyang, Lu Yiyi, and the others. They talked about some of the changes at home, Yiyi's college life in the outer city, and some academic exchanges.
Finally, all the younger generation from home had gathered.
Eldest Uncle's son and cousin, Lu Hongying, had originally been practicing martial arts outside. This time, he had also moved to Mountain-Edge City with his father.
Lu Hongying was a man of striking appearance. At a young age, he had grown a long beard. Coupled with the strength of his martial arts practice, he was as steady as a mountain among the younger generation.
Lu Tianyang was still the same, with dark circles under his eyes as if he had been drinking too much.
Lu Yiyi, on the other hand, had matured quite a bit. In the past, she had the air of a pure young lady from a wealthy family. Now, she had a hint of independence and decisiveness. Coupled with her good looks and figure, she was the center of attention among the younger generation.
Next was Zhang Xiuxiu. She sat very close to Lu Sheng on purpose. Dressed in a black, low-cut dress, she tried to rub herself against Lu Sheng from time to time, looking very alluring.
She was from the same bloodline as Lu Sheng's maternal grandfather's brother. The distance was too far, and she did not have much status in the Lu Family. It was understandable that she was trying to get close to Lu Sheng.
The last person was a girl that Lu Sheng had not seen much of.
Sun Ruoqing.
She was the younger brother of Lu Sheng's mother. In other words, she was his uncle's daughter. She was his real cousin, just like Lu Yiyi.
Lu Yiyi was the younger sister of Lu Sheng's mother, Sun Zining, and Lu Dian of the Lu Family. Because Lu Dian was not the legal wife, the relationship was still considered on Sun Zining's side.
To put it simply, Lu Yiyi was the daughter of Lu Sheng's aunt.
There were also some distant relatives present. There were more than ten of them, clustered around Lu Sheng in the middle.
Everyone was chatting and laughing as they sat in the gazebo in the garden. The atmosphere was harmonious.
Amidst the chatter, a black-robed man came forward and whispered something into Lu Sheng's ear.
Lu Sheng was taken aback, and then muttered to himself.
"I have something to attend to. You guys chat first. I'll arrange for Hongying and Yiyi's matters later."
"Big Brother, you're busy. We're all idlers. We can enjoy ourselves when we're free, but it wouldn't be nice to hold you up." Lu Hongying stood up to send him off.
"Mm. If there's any trouble, you can send someone to the Golden Jade Greenhouse. I'll make a move first." Lu Sheng nodded.
Everyone stood up to send him off and out of the garden.
Lu Sheng left the Lu Family immediately. The horse carriage was already waiting outside. He boarded the carriage, and Jade Lotus was already waiting inside.
"Sect Master." Jade Lotus bowed slightly.
"You've found one? Have you verified it? "Lu Sheng asked in a low voice.
He had not expected to find a spot left behind by Li Shunxi so soon.
"I've verified it. I'm a hundred percent sure that it's there. It's just that the location is a little dangerous, "Jade Lotus replied in a low voice. "The first to be confirmed is the Soul Consolidating Grass. There are two of them. Rumor has it that hunters and herb gatherers have seen them from afar. But because they're hidden in the mist, they can't be harvested. There seems to be some ferocious creature guarding them. "
Lu Sheng nodded.
"It's good that you can confirm it's real." Now that he had confirmed the authenticity of this treasure map, it meant that the other precious herbs on it were likely to be real as well.
Precious herbs were of great help to him. Some could even greatly reduce the consumption of Yin Qi. Directly using precious herbs and Yin-Yang Jade Crane Skill could raise his martial arts realm without harming his body.
And these were just ordinary precious herbs.
"I'm going into seclusion for a while when I get back," Lu Sheng said after some thought, "Assemble the men in five days. I want all of them archers."
"Understood!"
"Also, as for the juniors in my family, Lu Hongying and Lu Yiyi, just assign them to some unimportant positions. Don't be too important. Just take care of them. "
"Yes."
After making all the arrangements, Lu Sheng made a trip to Chen Yunxi's place to visit his fiancée. Then, he returned to the Crimson Whale.
In the massive Crimson Whale Sect, most of the upper echelons were in charge of their own duties. There was no need for him to attend to them personally. Only when there was a major issue or a general direction would he be needed.
Hence, he had enough time and space to spend on his gains from this trip.
…
In the sanctuary.
Lu Sheng sat cross-legged. A few jars of Golden Fragrance Ointment were placed beside him. There were also two barrels of concocted medicinal soup.
"Deep Blue," he took a deep breath and called out the Modifier that he had not checked for a long time.
Amidst the messy pile of skills, his gaze refocused on Ultimate Crimson Nine Furies Skill.
'The Yin Qi that Tea Sect obtained last time hasn't been completely used up. Perhaps I can cultivate the corresponding Yin Extreme Mode this time.'
Yang Extreme Mode was attained after mastering a hard body skill. Yin Extreme Mode … Lu Sheng vaguely sensed that there was hope for him to cultivate Yin Extreme Mode.
'My current cultivation can be roughly divided into two parts – my physical body and inner Qi,' Lu Sheng sorted out his thoughts.
'Inner Qi can only continue to liquefy if my physical body is strong enough. And the more I liquefy the inner Qi, the more lethal I'll be against Noblemen and demons. '
He scrutinized the messy pile of hard body skills that he had learned.
'I've learned too many hard body skills, but they're all non-overlapping. Only by combining all of them can I form such a powerful state as Yang Extreme Mode. If I combine all these hard body skills training methods, perhaps I can view them all as a single martial art, and view them as a whole. '
He pondered for a moment. Not long after this idea surfaced in his mind …
Instantly, the Modifier screen vibrated slightly. All the hard body skills actually began to blur. Following which, the lines disappeared one by one, and finally, a new frame was formed.
'Unknown Martial Art: Yang Extreme Realm. Special Effect (s): Additional Strength Level 6, Recoil Level 3, Penetrating Force Level 3, Additional Defense Level 3 … '
A whole bunch of skills and special effects appeared one by one behind this new unified martial art, forming a long list of names.
'It can actually be done like this?' Lu Sheng was momentarily stunned, then instantly overjoyed.
There was a limit to the number of frames on the Modifier screen. He had been worried that he would not be able to cultivate new martial arts in the future. He did not expect that it could be combined like this.
'Since it's the combination of so many hard body skills that can stimulate Yang Extreme Mode, this martial art can be said to be the most powerful among all hard body skills. I'll name it Yang Extreme Dao then,' Lu Sheng thought to himself.
Immediately, the unknown martial art on the Modifier screen was replaced by the words' Yang Extreme Dao '.
Without a large block of hard body skills occupying the frame, the Modifier looked much cleaner.
Lu Sheng looked at Ultimate Crimson Nine Furies Skill and Yin Yang Jade Crane Aquarius Qi.
'Upgrade Yang Extreme Dao first. Strengthen my physical body. '
He had expended about thirty units of Yin Qi previously. He did not know how much was left. Lu Sheng had no way of measuring it. He could only make a rough estimate based on the flow of Yin Qi as it was expended.
He looked at the button behind Yang Extreme Dao on the Modifier screen. Indeed, there was enough Yin Qi to continue the derivation.
Moreover, he had been studying the newly acquired Thousand Trees Burning Heart Palm in detail these days. Because of the Yang attribute and his high attainment in hard body skills, he was able to learn it quickly. This palm technique had also been integrated into Yang Extreme Dao.
'Upgrade Yang Extreme Dao by one level,' Lu Sheng commanded in his mind.
"Buzz!!"
In an instant, the entire Modifier screen blurred.
His derivation upgrade this time was different from the previous ones.
This was because Yang Extreme Dao was a martial art that combined many other hard body skills. Upgrading it by one level was equivalent to upgrading all other hard body skills by one level.
Lu Sheng immediately regretted this expenditure …
Vast amounts of Yin Qi were being consumed like a tidal wave. His skin began to turn bright red. Countless hair-sized vibrations spread and circulated on his body like threads.
These were not inner Qi, nor were they physical objects. Instead, they were purely hair-sized vibrations.
These vibrations frantically upgraded and adjusted Lu Sheng's physical body.
If it were an ordinary martial artist, to achieve this level, they would need to derive all these martial arts one by one, break through their limits, and then fuse them together to advance at the same time. Only then would they be able to achieve such an effect.
Without the Modifier, even Lu Sheng himself would need at least a hundred years to achieve this.
