Chapter 879 847: Wanting to Hold a Grandchild
Cyan Mountain Sect.
This time, Lu Ping's slaying of the Nascent Soul Evil Demon shocked the disciples of the Cyan Mountain Sect significantly.
Not only was the sect spreading Lu Ping's impressive battle achievements, but they were also amazed by Lu Ping's strength.
At the same time, the disciples' cultivation atmosphere reached an unprecedented high.
This led to recent overcrowding in the cultivation caves, Spirit Gathering Pools, Illusion Towers, and other cultivation sites within the Cyan Mountain Sect, requiring queues for entry to cultivate.
"These little rascals, usually not this enthusiastic in their cultivation, all gathering together now."
Lu Changfeng saw the scene and laughed heartily, making a playful remark.
"Changfeng, I see your cultivation is at the Second-Layer Golden Core, Distant Mountain already at Fourth-Layer Golden Core, and Zhiwei at Third-Layer Golden Core; you need to work harder and not let them pull too far ahead."
Lu Ping glanced at Lu Changfeng and said nonchalantly.
"Dad, how could my talent compare to big brother and little sister?"
Lu Changfeng scratched his head and laughed, "There's just a difference of one or two small realms, it's not too much."
"Though it's one or two small realms, wanting to catch up at a normal cultivation speed would likely take more than ten years."
Lu Ping's response made Lu Changfeng show a wry smile.
Indeed, as Lu Ping said, for a Golden Core stage cultivator to advance one small realm, it typically requires ten, sometimes twenty years.
Let alone two small realms.
"Father, Changfeng also has to pursue the Path of Array, spending some time on arrays. It's reasonable that his daily cultivation is slower."
Lu Yuanshan spoke up, defending his second brother.
He enjoyed chatting and exchanging thoughts with Lu Ping, these were the most relaxing moments.
Lu Ping chuckled lightly, glancing between Lu Yuanshan and Lu Zhiwei.
"Distant Mountain, as Sect Leader, managing sect affairs itself consumes a good portion of your time."
"As for Zhiwei, she is also deep into the path of artifact refining, limiting her cultivation time as well."
"You three all need to work hard to strive for Ninth-Layer Golden Core, making preparations to advance to the Nascent Soul stage."
Lu Ping mused, not because he was upset over his children's slower cultivation speed.
Their current achievements, even compared to major immortal sects, could be considered exceptional talents, likely viewed as key cultivation prospects.
Truly outstanding in talent.
But experiencing the crisis at the Demon Abyss made Lu Ping realize his children were not strong enough, powerless against Nascent Soul Evil Demons.
If it weren't for Jiuhua True Monarch and others chasing the Nascent Soul Evil Demon, and him being in the Cyan Mountain Sect, the Nascent Soul Evil Demon attacking the Cyan Mountain Sect would mean Lu Yuanshan and the others stood no chance.
The most crucial point, after discovering the existence of the Central Ancestral Domain, along with possible news of Li Chaoge there, Lu Ping decided to head to the Central Ancestral Domain.
In Lingxi State, limited resources make it hard to accommodate Nascent Soul cultivators' needs, many Nascent Soul True Monarchs will leave this domain seeking regions richer in resources and broader prospects.
The Central Ancestral Domain is a very fitting choice.
Lu Ping plans to go to the Central Ancestral Domain, if there's anything he's worried about or concerned about, it's the Cyan Mountain Sect.
As a father, his main concern naturally lies with his three children, hoping to see their strength enhance and achieve self-protection.
Especially Lu Yuanshan, it's been years since he's settled down, yet no sign of childbearing.
He and Liiu Qiumei seem to have no plans for children?
Lu Ping still wishes to hold a grandchild.
Facing Lu Ping's nagging, the three Lu Yuanshan children exchanged glances, clearly understanding that their father truly desires to see their strength grow.
So, they nodded in agreement, indicating they will work hard.
Cultivation is one step at a time; it's unwise to rush it, isn't it?
"Distant Mountain..."
Thinking about future descendants, Lu Ping couldn't help but ask.
"When do you plan to have children?"
This inquiry from Lu Ping left Lu Yuanshan momentarily stunned, thinking he might have misheard.
Why did father suddenly bring this up?
Beside him, Lu Changfeng and Lu Zhiwei were also taken aback, clearly not expecting Lu Ping to ask that.
Initially surprised, they showed teasing expressions, attempting not to laugh, looking at Lu Yuanshan.
"Uh..."
Lu Yuanshan appeared embarrassed, feeling helpless. As he scratched his head, he was momentarily speechless, unsure how to respond.
Regarding having children, he indeed had no plans.
Moreover, after cultivators marry, conceiving offspring isn't easy, which is why many cultivators rarely have children after marriage.
And any offspring born is undoubtedly considered a treasure, extremely cherished.
"What, are you planning to be childless?"
Seeing Lu Yuanshan at a loss for words, Lu Ping instinctively commented.
"Childless?"
Lu Yuanshan showed a look of confusion.
Neither Lu Changfeng nor Lu Zhiwei understood what "childless" meant.
Lu Ping always seems to have some novel words up his sleeve, every time they can't fathom them, but after Lu Ping's explanation, they find it makes sense.
"Childless means you don't have children."
Lu Ping explained.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuanshan and the others suddenly realized, once more learning a new term from Lu Ping.
"I don't intend to be childless, but it's something that can't be rushed."
Lu Yuanshan chuckled wryly, feeling shy when discussing children.
"Still, don't wait too long."
Seeing this, Lu Ping wasn't pushing too hard, gently addressing the topic.
Then, he turned his gaze on Lu Changfeng and Lu Zhiwei.
"Have either of you met someone you like?"
This question left Lu Changfeng and Lu Zhiwei momentarily stunned.
Why were they listening with amusement to the earlier conversation about their elder brother, but now it shifted to them?
"No, no."
Lu Changfeng shook his head vigorously.
He barely knew any female cultivators; how could he meet someone he liked?
This boy is just a bit of a homebody.
Lu Ping glanced at Lu Changfeng and turned his sight to Lu Zhiwei.
"Zhiwei, have you met an ideal partner yet? If so, don't hesitate to let your father know."
Lu Ping was a bit curious at this point.
"I haven't."
Lu Zhiwei didn't feel embarrassed, gently shaking her head, "I am focused on pursuing the Dao, not having thoughts of romance."
Seems like she might be joining the non-marriage group.
