Chapter 270: The Most Suitable Cultivation Method for Parents
After hanging up the phone, Lu Jing stood up and looked into the distance through the floor‑to‑ceiling window.
"Divine Archbishop, are you merely trying to weaken Huaguo's emerging forces?"
Lu Jing narrowed his eyes; he felt the Divine Archbishop's purpose was not that simple.
"It seems necessary to build a force of my own..."
He didn't want a bunch of deadweights like Song Lan Yue to protect his family.
But forming a force can't be done overnight; the immediate priority is his family's safety.
The Divine Archbishop's men failed this time, and they are very likely to launch another attack.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Jing dialed a number from his phone contacts.
At that moment, in some military region, the phone on Situjun's desk began to vibrate.
"Hey, why did you suddenly think of calling me, kid?"
Situjun's deep voice came through.
"Lord Seat, I would like to apply in advance for the Dragon Imperial New Star privileges."
Lu Jing got straight to the point and recounted the Divine Archbishop's attack on him.
"I already know; the military's intel is far more thorough than you think," Situjun said with a smile. "We just finished a meeting and decided to send a Wuhou-level strongman to protect your family's safety."
Then Situjun added, "The military will only protect your family for now, allowing you to cultivate in peace, but they won't allocate personnel to protect you individually."
"Fine, I don't need anyone else's protection either."
Lu Jing replied.
"By the way, the guy you killed named Qin Fei, was he a Talent Endowed of the Wuhou Realm?"
Situjun lowered his voice and asked.
"Yes, his Talent Endowed ability was unusual; I also had to exert great effort to kill him."
"Sss—"
From the other end of the phone came Situjun's sharp intake of cold breath.
"No wonder the Divine Archbishop's men came to assassinate you; your growth speed is downright terrifying! Think back to when you were competing for the Dragon Imperial New Star, you were still a naive high school student..."
Situjun muttered his thoughts.
Lu Jing wanted to interject but couldn't find the right words, so he changed the subject.
"Lord Seat, I accepted a favor from the military this time, and I will definitely repay it in the future."
Situjun paused, then burst into laughter: "Ha ha, remember to come find me after you graduate; the military is currently short of personnel!"
"Alright, I'll be there then."
Lu Jing responded with a smile as well.
He still felt deep gratitude and respect for Situjun.
Moreover, Situjun's personality suited him perfectly; he said whatever was on his mind and never played the riddler's games.
From the first day he met Situjun, the latter had openly expressed the desire for Lu Jing to join the military.
"Lu Jing, keep walking your own path and don't let the Divine Archbishop's people affect you," Situjun continued. "Because of last night's incident, our military has tightened the restrictions on entry for strongmen above the Wuhou level, so don't feel too pressured."
They are scheming to eliminate you, but the high officials of Huaguo also value you highly; the fact that they dispatched a Wuhou-level strongman to protect your family long‑term shows that.
"When you graduate, the military will officially tilt cultivation resources toward you; the more outstanding you become, the more resources you'll receive..."
"I understand, Lord Seat,"
Lu Jing's expression turned serious, "When the opportunity arises later, I will promote you."
"Cough cough..."
Situjun was choked by Lu Jing's words and kept coughing.
"Kid, you really haven't changed at all; I thought you'd become more restrained after entering Wuda University."
Lu Jing smiled, chatted a few more words with Situjun, and then hung up.
He tossed the phone aside, stretched out in a big‑letter shape on the soft bed, and let out a long sigh.
Thus, his family's safety was now assured.
He unfolded his spiritual power again, instantly enveloping the entire residential complex.
At the gate of a villa somewhere, a moving company's truck loaded with furniture was pulling up.
Behind it followed a man wearing a military‑green shirt and sunglasses.
Seeming to sense Lu Jing's spiritual power, the man looked toward Lu Jing's house.
Lu Jing withdrew his spiritual power, a slight smile tugging at his mouth.
This is the Wuhou Realm strongman sent by the military; in both strength and mindset, he is incomparable to that woman Song Lan Yue.
Having such a strongman as a neighbor lets Lu Jing's mind finally settle.
At the same time, Lu Jing also felt a trace of pressure.
The military's willingness to let a Wuhou Realm strongman work long‑term for Lu Jing's family shows they see Lu Jing's potential.
They are convinced that Lu Jing can create even greater value later.
"I still have to keep working hard..."
Lu Jing sighed.
Then he closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
When he opened his eyes again, Lu Jing saw the blinding sunlight outside the window.
He had slept from morning until noon; perhaps his long‑standing habit of lazy sleeping kept his family from waking him early.
Lu Jing got up, practiced the basic chapter of the Body‑Tempering Technique once, then after a quick wash, went downstairs.
As soon as he went downstairs, the rich aroma of meals filled the living room.
"You're up, huh? I guessed you wanted to sleep in, so I didn't have Lu Leyi call you."
Feng Qinru sat on the sofa watching TV, saw Lu Jing come down, and got up to walk toward the dining table.
On the dining table were the already‑prepared dishes, sealed with a thermal lid.
Lu Jing extended his spiritual power outward, seeing Lu Haitao fiddling with plants in the yard, and Lu Leyi practicing the moves she learned yesterday in the training hall.
His family is all well, which let Lu Jing sigh in relief.
With a Wu Hou Realm strongman as protection, even the Divine Archbishop's followers could only leave empty‑handed.
Lu Jing sat down, eating as he contemplated yesterday's matters.
After a sleep, his mind was crystal clear.
He can't remain at home for long; during this period he must introduce Lu Haitao and Feng Qinru to the Martial Way.
From which step should he begin?
Suddenly, a flash lit up in Lu Jing's eyes as he thought of the most fitting technique.
It is the Universal Breathing Method, synthesized from the Shogunate Breathing Method!
The method has no entry barrier; cultivation is extremely simple, though it is very time‑consuming.
It allows Lu Haitao and Feng Qinru to absorb wood‑elemental energy from the surroundings, which not only enhances their physique and prolongs life, but also endows their bodies with a share of a Talent Endowed's wood‑type abilities.
Wood‑type Talent Endowed abilities are generally tied to vitality, precisely what middle‑aged and elderly people require!
Most importantly, the Universal Breathing Method can be combined with the Body Tempering Technique for synchronized cultivation, yielding twice the result with half the effort.

With that in mind, Lu Jing made up his mind, picked up an ox leg from the table, and took a hard bite.
"Mom, you sent Dad to the third‑floor training hall; I have something to tell you."
After Lu Jing finished, he shot up the stairs.
"This kid only took a few bites—was my cooking bad?"
