Otherwise, I wouldn’t even know how to arrange these extracts.

As for the “Heaven and Earth Longevity Technique” he obtained, he didn’t consider having his wives and children assimilate the heaven and earth spirit plants into “Life-bound Spiritual Roots” for the time being.

It wasn’t that he was reluctant to part with this treasure tree.

In the Heaven and Earth Longevity Technique, after the heaven and earth spirit plants are refined into “Life-bound Spiritual Roots,” they continue to grow just as before.

Even the cultivator could gain some of the mysterious divine skills of the “heaven and earth spirit plants.”

But he even had to consider whether to plant it in the Lu Family.

How could he use this treasure tree just for his wife to cultivate the Heaven and Earth Longevity Technique?

Dusk fell.

Lu Changsheng arrived at Xiao Xiyue’s courtyard.

After all, tomorrow he was to attend the auction with his four wives.

Unable to accompany Xiao Xiyue, he also had to trouble her to help with the auction.

…

The next day, Lu Changsheng, accompanied by his four wives, along with Lu Yuanzhong, Lu Yuanding, and others, headed to the Red Leaf Valley auction venue.

To enter the auction, there were naturally certain requirements.

One either needed to have a certain status or verify their financial ability.

But as one of the hosts, the Lu Family naturally arranged a special VIP area.

“Brother Lu, it’s a pleasure to meet all the sister-in-laws.”

Hong Yi also came to the Red Leaf Valley Market to attend the auction.

Upon seeing Lu Changsheng, he promptly went up to greet him, looking to get acquainted.

Even though he had long known that Lu Changsheng’s status in the Lu Family was extraordinary,

seeing Lu Changsheng walking together with several high-ranking members of the Lu Family and his wives, he still couldn’t help but feel emotional inside.

He reminisced about the past when he, Lu Changsheng, and Li Feiyu failed to be selected by the Immortal Sects.

Back then, he had felt a bit arrogant in his heart.

He thought that Lu Changsheng and Li Feiyu could only go to cultivation families to be sons-in-law,

while he could return home to cultivate.

But now, Lu Changsheng had married the pearl of the Lu Family as a son-in-law and become a high-level figure of the Lu Family, leaving him looking up.

“Brother Hong, you’re here too.”

Lu Changsheng smiled and nodded, briefly introducing him to his wives.

However, both Qu Zhenzhen and Lu Miaoyun had met Hong Yi before.

Only Lu Miaohuan had not met him.

Although the second young lady’s temperament had improved slightly, she was still indifferent to someone like Hong Yi, merely nodding lightly out of courtesy for Lu Changsheng’s sake.

Hong Yi didn’t linger too much either; he simply came over to greet them and then quickly left.

“Daoist Yu, Daoist Bai, Daoist Zheng, Daoist Huang, Daoist Xu.”

After entering the venue, Lu Yuanzhong chatted and greeted each person.

Those who could be greeted by Lu Yuanzhong and engage in mutual conversation, were naturally all Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators.

Facing this, Lu Changsheng did not mingle and instead, took his wives to sit down in the Lu Family’s VIP booth.

Such VIP booths not only had good positions, providing an unobstructed view of the entire auction, but there were also maids preparing Spiritual Tea and Spirit Fruits.

Lu Changsheng also spotted Xiao Xiyue in the VIP seats far away.

After all, as a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator, she was definitely provided a VIP seat at the auction.

As for Hong Yi, he sat in the common seats below, with only a plain cushion, very simple.

About half an hour passed.

The seats in the auction venue were almost full.

“Hum!”

A young man dressed in azure vestment robes and a jade crown, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, stepped up to the auction stage.

“Welcome, fellow Daoists, to the Red Leaf Valley Market. My name is Yu Ningjun from the Yu Family, and I am honored to host this auction… I also hope that everyone will be able to purchase their desired items…”

With a smile on his face, the young man bowed to the audience.

His voice, warm and gentle yet clear, reached everyone’s ears.

Clearly, his cultivation was not mediocre, possessing the strength of Qi Refinement Perfection.

“Father, why do I feel like this auction is completely dominated by the Yu Family?”

Lu Miaohuan, seeing that the person hosting the auction was also from the Yu Family, frowned slightly and said.

These past few days, as she wandered around the Red Leaf Valley Market, she could tell that whether it was patrolling or the auction itself, it was mostly handled by the Yu Family.

Hearing this, Lu Changsheng also looked towards Lu Yuanding.

It was not just Lu Miaohuan who had this feeling; he had felt it for many years in the Red Leaf Valley Market.

However, he had an inkling of the reason.

“Although this Red Leaf Valley Market is said to be hosted by our four major families, as you know, our Lu Family only has Elder Yuan Zhong in residence.”

“The Yu Family, not only having two Foundation Establishment Ancestors but also being much stronger overall than our Lu Family, so over these years, our Lu Family has been losing its say in the Red Leaf Valley Market,” explained Lu Yuanding with a sigh.

Although the Lu Family holds a forty percent share in the Red Leaf Valley Market, the Cultivation World ultimately operates on the principle that might is right.

After the Lu Family Ancestor passed away, only Lu Yuanzhong was left to support the Lu Family.

So gradually, the say in the Red Leaf Valley Market fell into the hands of the Yu Family.

While the Bai Family stands on the side of the Lu Family,

the Yu Family is mainly competing for authoritative control, eroding the Lu Family’s interests.

The Bai Family not only doesn’t suffer losses but even gains benefits from the Yu Family.

So even though everyone knows the danger of “when the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold,” the Bai Family was not likely to defend the Lu Family’s interests and step forward.

After all, things had not reached that point yet.

“Although the Lu Family benefited greatly from the annihilation of the Chen Family in that battle,

“converting those advantages into strength also requires time,”

“So now facing the Yu Family, we can only give way,”

“After all, Lu Yuanzhong has only broken through to Foundation Establishment not long ago, while both of the Yu Family’s Elders have been in Foundation Establishment for many years.”

Lu Changsheng thought to himself,

aware that the Lu Family was developing steadily, but the situation was not that great.

However, now that he too had reached Foundation Establishment,

should the Lu Family really face a crisis, he would have the ability to lend a hand.

Had it followed normal development, the overall strength of the Lu Family would hardly surpass the Yu Family,

but if Lu Miaoge reached Qi Refinement Perfection, Lu Changsheng was sixty to seventy percent confident he could help his wife succeed in Foundation Establishment.

Once Lu Miaoge succeeded in Foundation Establishment, the Lu Family’s overtly stable development would no longer be a problem,

and surpassing the Yu Family in the future would not be an issue.
