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

Chapter 206 Such a Coincidence? A Wave of Romance? A Cauldron-like Body!_2

The damp, jet-black hair clung to her ghastly pale and bloodless exquisite cheeks, beautiful and bewitching, exuding an indescribable sense of tragic beauty.

It ignited a possessive desire in onlookers while also compelling them to feel sympathy.

"So this is the naturally charming body? Even in a comatose state, she's filled with allure and charm."

Lu Changsheng couldn't help but glance sideways, taking in a few looks, and felt moved by the charm of the beguiling body.

To his knowledge, the naturally enchanting body was just a type of ordinary Spiritual Body commonly found in females.

It was nothing rare or special.

The allure of Nangong Mili, besides her natural bewitching body, he reckoned, must also have something to do with her appearance, or perhaps the cultivation technique she practiced.

This thought triggered another in his mind.

If he were to absorb her essence, he wondered what benefits he might acquire?

In the Cultivation World, the enchanting body was also referred to by the term "Cauldron Body Constitution."

This indicated that the bewitching body was especially suitable for practicing Dual Cultivation Absorption Techniques.

Although it wasn't as beneficial as the "Charming Female Body" or "Primordial Yin Physique" for dual cultivation.

It still offered significant advantages for absorption.

Particularly since the Nangong Mili in front of him was a Nascent Soul Immortal.

If he could absorb her True Elixir's primordial yin, the benefits might be substantial.

Once this idea took hold, it immediately filled Lu Changsheng's mind, making him feel as though two little figures were wrestling in his head.

One dark figure told him that both Meng Xiaochan and Nangong Mili were from the Demon Path.

If he became involved, it might bring trouble; he'd be better off taking the opportunity to absorb her essence and kill her.

On the other hand, a light figure told him that he was, after all, a gentleman of integrity, how could he commit such an act!

"Master."

Meng Xiaochan embraced her master, bringing her to the shore to examine her condition.

She immediately found that her master's condition was very bad.

Previously, she and Nangong Mili had escaped with a Teleportation Talisman.

But with her own strength, she couldn't activate the talisman at all.

It was only possible with Nangong Mili's assistance.

Nangong Mili, at that time, was already in a severely injured state, having just awakened and extremely weak.

Upon activating the talisman, she collapsed back into unconsciousness.

Then, she was struck by a sword beam from Lan Ruoxue, which drastically worsened her already serious condition.

It wasn't life-threatening yet.

But if it continued, her life would indeed be at risk.

Meng Xiaochan immediately took out a Healing Pill from her Storage Bag, fed it to Nangong Mili, and helped her refine the medicinal essence.

"Miss, I see that your master is in a bad state right now."

"Moreover, you and your master are being hunted by the Heavenly Sword Sect, if you leave like this, once you encounter a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect, I'm afraid it will be dangerous."

At that moment, Ling Zixiao, who was beside Lu Changsheng, looked at Meng Xiaochan and spoke out.

Through Lu Changsheng's gaze and breathing, she could sense that her lover had a possessive desire for the present Nangong Mili.

To this, she could somewhat understand.

On one hand, Nangong Mili was indeed captivating.

Even as a woman herself, she felt somewhat attracted.

An additional reason was that she had reviewed the information on the Demon Path happenings in the Jiuxiao Immortal City.

She recognized Nangong Mili.

She knew that this unconscious woman was one of the Nascent Soul Immortals being chased by the Heavenly Sword Sect.

The Heaven Spider Emissary from the Five Poisons Cult, Nangong Mili!

She was aware that Lu Changsheng was proficient in many dual cultivation and absorption techniques.

A weakened, unconscious Nascent Soul Immortal before him was like a grand medicinal herb to someone like Lu Changsheng, who was adept in absorption techniques.

If he could absorb her essence, the benefits might be immense.

"My disciple and I appearing here will surely bring trouble for Daoist Lu and... Lu Daoist."

"Therefore, in order not to cause you two any trouble..."

Meng Xiaochan's delicate face was somewhat pale, she bit her lip lightly, her voice quivering as she spoke.

How could she not know that she and her master were in extreme danger?

But at this moment, her heart was very complicated.

On one hand, her affection for Lu Changsheng made her want to approach him, to show her soft side in front of him, seeking help.

Yet that same affection made her worry about causing Lu Changsheng trouble.

Apart from affection, the few remaining shreds of rationality in her heart also made her worried.

Fear gripped her that Lu Changsheng might turn against her and her master.

After all, she had witnessed Lu Changsheng's methods before.

She knew Lu Changsheng was truly extraordinary.

A decade had passed, and Lu Changsheng had successfully established his Foundation, his strength and methods only becoming more formidable.

If her master, Nangong Mili, had been well, things would have been fine.

But now her master was seriously injured and comatose, and she herself was in a weakened state.

If Lu Changsheng decided to make a move against them, she feared she would be utterly powerless to resist.

"Miss Xiao Chan, as Zi Xiao said, it's very dangerous for you to take your master away with you now,"

"There's a formation here that conceals your presence, which should offer some security."

"Let me take a look at you and your master's condition."

Lu Changsheng looked at Meng Xiaochan before him, sighed softly, his heart softening a bit.

In the end, he couldn't bring himself to take advantage of their vulnerability, to harvest and kill them.

Nor could he watch Meng Xiaochan, who had deeply cared for him, leave with Nangong Mili in such a state, falling into peril.

Since fate had strangely brought them together here, creating ties between them, adding a few more didn't matter anymore.

"Lu Lang..."

Meng Xiaochan heard these words, her beautiful eyes locked onto Lu Changsheng, her eyes reddening, slightly moist.

She was not a fragile person.

Since her grandmother's death, she had been traveling alone through the Cultivation World, her temperament surpassing countless others.

But these past few months had been too exhausting for her.

Her master comatose, facing the pursuit and assassination by the Heavenly Sword Sect, each day was filled with terror, like walking on thin ice.

Today, her master had finally awakened, but due to Lan Ruoxue's sword strike, their situation had deteriorated further.

Not only was she weakened, but her master Nangong Mili was also facing a life-threatening crisis.

Therefore, faced with Lu Changsheng's concerned words, her tough inner self and taut nerves completely collapsed.

"It's okay."

Lu Changsheng saw Meng Xiaochan's eyes brimming with tears, her delicate and pure face full of grievances, and he felt pity, sighing softly in his heart, moving forward to comfort her.

He, Lu, has always been tender-hearted, unable to bear seeing tears.

Meng Xiaochan's pitiful demeanor indeed invoked sympathy and made him want to hold her in his arms and protect her.

"Lu Lang, wuwuwu—"

Hearing Lu Changsheng's soothing words, like a gentle breeze, Meng Xiaochan could no longer control her emotions, suppressing them no longer, she rushed into Lu Changsheng's arms, hugging him tightly.

Her pale, delicate cheek rested against his chest as she sobbed softly.

The sobbing grew louder, eventually turning into a loud wail.

It seemed as if she wanted to release all the sadness, pain, anxiety, discomfort, and all other emotions from deep within her heart.

"It's alright, it's alright, I'm here."

Lu Changsheng hugged Meng Xiaochan, his hand gently caressing her back, his voice soothing her.

Although he knew Meng Xiaochan must not be young in age.

But her appearance and her posture still conveyed a sense of a delicate and young girl.

Ling Zixiao, who was watching from aside, said nothing.

He pondered to himself, considering how Meng Xiaochan previously interacted with Lu Changsheng in a hesitant manner, wondering what it was all about.

From the current situation, she did not seem to have done anything to wrong Lu Changsheng.

Nor did Lu Changsheng seem to hold any grudge against her.

"What is going on between these two?"

Ling Zixiao, observing the scene, truly found it incomprehensible.

After a long while, the young girl had expressed her tumultuous emotions.

Lifting her rain-streaked, delicate face, she pleaded with a vulnerable look, "Lu Lang... can you save my master...?"

Before, Meng Xiaochan would have found it difficult to ask Lu Changsheng for help.

But after her emotional outburst, not only had her tough inner self and taut nerves crushed, but also the last bit of rationality she had towards Lu Changsheng.

Instinctively, she saw him as her support.

"Alright, I have healing pills here, start by recovering from your injuries."

Lu Changsheng extended his hand and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

He then took out a bottle of high-grade healing pills from his storage bag and gave them to Meng Xiaochan.

"Mm, thank you, Lu Lang."

Meng Xiaochan's pale face broke into a smile, and she took out a pill and swallowed it directly.

Then, Lu Changsheng moved to the side, to where Nangong Mili lay pale and tempting, took hold of her pallid wrist, and began to check her condition.
