Chapter 474: Chapter 193: Fell for Ling at first sight, hence wanted to become Dao companions!_2
The young man, clad in a green robe, stood tall and straight, embodying a fresh vigor that was calming to the heart, simply by sitting still.
“I’m planning to establish a family power and I need an Array Master to hold the fort.”
“Yesterday, I was smitten with Ling Zixiao at first sight, so I wish to form a Dao Companion bond with you, to support each other and cultivate the Great Dao together.”
“If Ling Daoist friend is willing, I will do everything in my power to help you resolve the issues with your Dragon Roar Physique.”
“Of course, if Ling Daoist friend is unwilling, I won’t force the issue. These three secret techniques can be exchanged for other goods.”
Lu Changsheng reverted to his true appearance, his face handsome and otherworldly, and finished the tea in his cup in one gulp before speaking out.
After reading Ling Zixiao’s message yesterday, he had been considering making her the mother of his child.
Not only was Ling Zixiao an Array Master.
He was preparing to establish a family.
A family could not stand on one person alone; he couldn’t handle everything by himself.
Nowadays, cultivation, childbearing, talisman making, alchemy, and educating his children were already keeping him quite busy.
Even if he won a formation through the system lottery, it would still consume a great deal of his time and energy.
Moreover, once the family was established, there would be even more issues and troubles.
Relying on the children he currently had at home would be difficult to manage.
Therefore, many matters would eventually fall upon him as their father.
He needed someone to share the burdens with him.
Ling Zixiao was not just an Array Master.
She was also a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
If the family had another Foundation Establishment Cultivator, it would greatly ease his burdens.
Moreover, Ling Zixiao had an exceptional talent and potential for improvement both in her cultivation level and the Formation Path.
Such a talented and unattached female cultivator was a golden opportunity he intended to seize and make her the mother of his child.
After all, given his current status, having a mere concubine to bear children was hardly an issue.
What he needed now were wives like Xiao Xiyue and Lu Miaoge, who could not only bear children but also share worries and difficulties, build the family, and support each other on the cultivation journey — a wife, a Dao Companion.
He saw Ling Zixiao as just that kind.
She came to Jiuxiao Immortal City alone and made a name for herself through her mastery of formation paths.
This spoke not just of her talent and knowledge of formations but also her acumen and abilities.
However, this also meant she was not a naive and easily flustered girl.
Winning her over to become the mother of his child would not be easy.
Thus, after some thought, he decided to keep it simple and straightforward.
Using the issue of the Dragon Roar Physique as a starting point, he proposed for them to form a Dao Companion relationship, starting from there.
The bond between cultivators as Dao Companions is similar to that of husband and wife.
But it’s more free-spirited.
If their Dao aligns, they support each other and advance together!
If not, they part ways without hard feelings!
Of course, if Ling Zixiao was unwilling.
Or if she preferred to take the techniques to find someone else to resolve her issue, he would not press the matter.
After all, a melon forcibly twisted off its vine is not sweet.
This kind of Dao Companion, this kind of wife—he would not force it if it were solely for the purpose of satisfying thirst or bearing children.
Ling Zixiao, upon seeing Lu Changsheng before her and hearing his words, was stunned.
On the one hand, she was shocked at how she had failed to detect any sign of Lu Changsheng’s disguise and was astonished by his transformation.
On the other hand, Lu Changsheng’s remarks caught her off-guard, leaving her astonished and unprepared.
Although she ventured alone to Jiuxiao Immortal City and faced many challenges,
she indeed lacked experience in matters of the heart.
She hadn’t expected that Lu Changsheng’s intention was to form a Dao Companion bond with her.
However, she was not the type to blush and be shy easily, quickly regaining her composure.
“You’re quite direct, Daoist Ye.”
Ling Zixiao chuckled lightly, her face reflecting a poised and elegant demeanor.
Assessing Lu Changsheng’s handsome features, she spoke, “It seems that you are confident in resolving my Dragon Roar Physique issue.”
“I just wonder, if Daoist Ye intervenes, what is your chance of success?”
Although Lu Changsheng’s words were very direct,
with a clear purpose and utilitarian nature,
she felt more at ease because of that.
After all, why would someone go to such lengths, at such a great cost, to resolve the issue of her Dragon Roar Physique without any motive or goal?
for some reason, she found Lu Changsheng’s current appearance and sincere speech trustworthy, which made her inexplicably trust him.
This caused Ling Zixiao to speculate in her heart whether Lu Changsheng could be some Flower-Picking Heretic Cultivator, intending to harvest the Origin Source of her Dragon Roar Physique?
Otherwise, why would the methods to resolve her issue all be Dual Cultivation Techniques?
And now, with his changed appearance and a charm that seemed akin to a Bewitching Technique, it kindled a familiarity in her heart.
She also had to admit, albeit grudgingly, that Lu Changsheng’s appearance was indeed that of a rare beauty.
The features by themselves might not be perfect,
but together, they presented an indescribable harmony, just right, making him appear handsomely dashing, without a single flaw to find.
What attracted her most was Lu Changsheng’s demeanor, which was as refreshing as a spring breeze, and his celestial-like quality.
It was extremely comforting to behold, eliciting a favorable impression and a spontaneous desire to be in his company for a long time.
“Since Ling Daoist friend has seen these three secret techniques, you should know that theoretically, they can resolve your situation with the Dragon Roar Physique.”
“As for these three secret techniques, I have already mastered them to the point of perfection. With the addition of several life-saving elixirs, I am ninety percent certain that you will be safe throughout the process.”
“However, as to whether it can completely eradicate the Dragon Roar Physique, I cannot guarantee that, as it involves the Spiritual Body and mysteries I am not fully aware of.”
