Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family - Chapter 339

Chapter 339: Chapter 154: This Peach Blossom Luck is Really a Punishment!_2

He absolutely didn’t believe he could have inexplicable thoughts about a little girl.

Especially such a dirty little girl.

“This little girl has a problem!”

Lu Changsheng scrutinized the little girl carefully.

He immediately found, beneath the girl’s tattered grey hemp clothes, on her neck and wrists, there were white scales resembling those of fish or snakes.

“A half-demon?”

Seeing these scales, Lu Changsheng raised an eyebrow.

But he didn’t sense any demonic energy from the little girl.

He employed his Spiritual Eye Technique, looking at the little girl.

He saw a faint spiritual energy swirling around her, indicating she possessed a Spiritual Root.

“There’s a problem, definitely a problem.”

At this moment, Lu Changsheng became even more aware of the issue with the little girl.

He had recently achieved Foundation Establishment, shedding his mortal shell, and his spiritual perception and senses had all improved.

Even without using the Spiritual Eye Technique, he could tell whether a person had a Spiritual Root or not.

Yet he hadn’t noticed the Spiritual Root in the little girl before.

It was only after using the Spiritual Eye Technique that he saw the Spiritual Root in the little girl.

“Could it be some special constitution?”

Lu Changsheng scrutinized the little girl, thinking to himself.

The little girl seemed to sense that Lu Changsheng was looking at her, and fearfully shrank her petite body.

“Immortal, it must surely be this monster that brought the bandits!”

A villager who saw Lu Changsheng examining the little girl immediately spoke out.

“That’s right, she’s a disaster star.”

“It’s this monster that nearly doomed our village!”

“We implore you, Immortal, to eliminate this monster!”

Soon, several more villagers spoke out.

The little girl, upon hearing these words, immediately began to tremble with fright, her eyes brimming with tears.

“Little girl, don’t cry, don’t cry.”

A nearby old woman with grey hair and dressed in grey hemp clothes immediately hugged the little girl to comfort her.

“Granny Zhao, this monster is a disaster star, and since you adopted it, that’s why your son and daughter-in-law never returned from their work outside.”

Another villager spoke out.

This statement instantly caused the old woman to stiffen.

“What’s the matter with this little girl?”

Lu Changsheng raised his hand slightly and asked in a mild tone.

He saw that the little girl was problematic.

But he could not see exactly what the issue was.

Now he heard the words of the people, it seemed that the villagers had long known that there was something wrong with the little girl.

“Reporting to the Immortal, this monster was originally Xu’Er’s daughter.”

“Xu’Er used to be a famous hunter in our village, but ever since the birth of this monster, his life became miserable.”

“First, his wife died in childbirth while delivering their second child, both the mother and child perished.”

“After a few years, Xu’Er himself never returned from a hunting trip in the mountains.”

“Granny Zhao, out of pity, adopted her, but when she was seven or eight, she started growing scales on her body, just like snake scales, if that’s not a monster then what is.”

“Moreover, after Granny Zhao adopted this monster, her son and his wife went to the city to work and they too have not returned.”

“Now that our village was doing well, it suffered a bandit attack, which must surely be caused by this disaster star.”

A few villagers said.

“Disaster star, monster.”

As for a monster, Lu Changsheng couldn’t deny it.

After all, the girl’s condition was indeed strange.

But regarding the disaster star, he did not agree.

In this era, especially for poor families, childbirth was fraught with great risk.

And hunting in the mountains or working far from home also came with their own dangers.

“What’s your name, would you like to leave with me?”

Lu Changsheng asked the little girl, his tone gentle.

He saw that the girl was extraordinary, problematic.

Since this village couldn’t accommodate her, he thought it best to take her away and care for her.

And see exactly what the situation with this little girl was.

Whether she possessed some special constitution, or something else.

The little girl, hearing Lu Changsheng’s words, was slightly taken aback.

She felt a warmth and peace from the young man that she had never experienced before.

It was a kind of aura and feeling.

Like a spring breeze, making her subconsciously drawn to him, feeling a sense of goodwill.

She didn’t answer.

She just timidly looked at the granny by her side.

“Immortal, the child is very well-behaved, not a monster,” Granny Zhao, thinking that Lu Changsheng was about to exorcise a demon, cautiously said.

She certainly knew that there was something wrong with the little girl.

But after so many years together, she had long considered the little girl her own granddaughter.

Not only was she obedient and well-behaved, but she also took the initiative to do farm work, laundry, and cooking.

Usually, when she was wronged or bullied by other children, she would hold it in secretly and not tell anyone, which broke Granny Zhao’s heart.

As for her son and daughter-in-law’s situation, although it was painful for her, every year some villagers followed trade caravans to work outside, and never returned.

So it wasn’t entirely fair to blame the child.

“Hehe, I saw that this child has a connection with the immortals, so I thought about taking her away,” Lu Changsheng chuckled and said.

“Connection with the immortals!”

“What, this m… girl actually has a connection with the immortals?”

“Immortal, could you have made a mistake?” the other villagers, upon hearing this, exclaimed with envy.

“Girl, quickly accept the Immortal’s offer!”

Upon hearing Lu Changsheng say the little girl had a connection with the immortals, Granny Zhao immediately urged the little girl.

“But I am a monster…” the little girl said in a low voice.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to leave with Lu Changsheng.

But she also felt inside that she was a monster and could bring trouble, feeling somewhat apprehensive.

“I said you are not a monster, would you like to leave with me?” Lu Changsheng continued.

“The girl is willing to leave with the Immortal,” the little girl said, looking up with a docile and timid demeanor.

After speaking, her eyes were expectant, and her voice slightly stuttering and trembling, she added, “Immortal, could you also take Granny away with us?”

“Not bad, your filial piety is commendable, naturally that is possible,” Lu Changsheng said.
