Chapter 6: Lesser Fairy Realm, the Foundations of an Immortal Clan

But the problem arises again.

How to make the other side move more? Say it directly? That won't work; let's not even consider whether Lu Zhangsheng can do it.

Even if possible, when mother hears the child in her womb speaking directly, what reaction would she have?

"We need to plan carefully," Lu Zhangsheng thought, but at that moment he suddenly sensed that someone seemed to be arriving outside.

After becoming a Primordial Dao Fetus, I cannot speak, nor can I even move my body.

But the soul, on the other hand, has grown considerably, sensing the outside world's movements.

It can roughly perceive them.

And the visitor at this moment.

Seems.

Is the one who initially wanted to eliminate my grandfather.

Just as Lu Zhangsheng had anticipated.

Lu Yuhua walks into the palace.

"Father-in-law." Purple Fairy sees the visitor and immediately rises to bow.

"Don't move around; just stay seated," Lu Yuhua hurriedly says.

Fearing that his daughter‑in‑law and the well‑behaved grandchild in her womb might be startled.

He knows this is absolutely impossible, for the person before him possesses cultivation and is protected by Divine Power.

Yet, being close kin, those concerns in his heart cannot be dismissed.

"Did you come to convey something?" As the two sit, Purple Fairy speaks first, noting that since she became pregnant, the other party seldom disturbs her, especially as a clan Saint Lord who handles countless affairs daily.

Therefore, unless there is an urgent matter, they would not come personally.

"Do you still remember the instruction from the Thirteen Xuan Ancestor three months ago?"

Lu Yuhua says, "Today is the deadline set by the elder; you must set out now."

"So it is about this matter."

Hearing this, Purple Fairy's eyes brighten instantly: "I've been waiting impatiently."

The Thirteen Xuan Ancestor of the Ancient Lu Family is a peerless figure of the Xuanhuang Great World.

Tens of thousands of years ago, he was the Lu Family Saint Lord, wielding dominion over heaven and earth.

It is unknown how many widely celebrated deeds he left behind.

Especially in his youth.

He beheaded holy spirits, exterminated demons; with a pair of fists, he shattered the Dao hearts of countless Heavenly Pride.

Even compared to the strongest contemporary Lu Family monster, her husband Lu Wushang, he was not inferior.

Now, though he has long retired into seclusion.

Those legends, however, continue to spread.

Purple Fairy also holds the clan's Elder Ancestor in utmost reverence.

Now being able to listen to his teachings, she is of course very eager; the chance is too rare.

"Just remember, my visit this time does involve some important matters," Lu Yuhua nods, continuing: "The Thirteen Xuan Ancestor will speak, and the younger members of the other eight lineages will also come to listen."

"And you know, the child you now carry is the first truly peerless Heavenly Pride offspring of my ninth lineage."

"Moreover, with Lu Wushang gone, having gone onto the Starry Sky Ancient Path, they no longer have any restraint."

"If given the chance, we will certainly choose to investigate thoroughly."

At this point, Lu Yuhua sighs: "So, Zi Er, remember, if these people entangle you, do not pay them heed; endure for now, wait until the child is born, then suppress them completely."

"I understand, even if it's for the child," Purple Fairy nods, knowing she cannot be careless.

When Lu Zhangsheng hears the conversation outside, he also falls into contemplation.

He thinks that indeed it is a great power; internal strife is inevitable.

A month's time.

Regarding the family he belongs to, he has basically understood most of it.

The Ancient Lu Family, a hegemonic force of the Xuanhuang Great World, is revered as an immortal‑level clan.

Within the clan, countless powerful bloodline descendants exist; if carefully divided, there are nine lineages in total.

But the same truth holds: resources are limited, so each lineage harbors various conflicts with one another.

Of course, because there are multiple Elder Ancestors above to suppress them.

Thus the struggles are benign and will not cause internal discord.

Lu Zhangsheng's grandfather, Lu Yuhua, rose within the ninth lineage and, thousands of years ago, defeated the other eight lineages' strongmen, ascending to the Saint Lord throne; his son, Lu Wushang, was even unparalleled.

In less than a hundred years, he directly progressed to the Saint Realm.

He directly suppressed countless contemporary Heavenly Pride, leaving them gasping.

His lineage.

Thus it became extremely powerful, revered by the clan.

However, as time passed.

Lu Wushang grew older.

No longer part of the younger generation and without offspring, the ninth lineage's momentum weakened.

Then Lu Zhangsheng's father, needing to heal his wife's Dao injury while continuing his own cultivation, set out on the Starry Sky Ancient Path; the other eight lineages also began to eye them hungrily, secretly seeking opportunities.

In this situation, the gestation of the Primordial Dao Fetus will inevitably attract the attention of everyone in the clan.

In short, the matters Lu Zhangsheng will face next are unlikely to be few.

That is also why he intends to plan it even while still in the womb.

"Internal clan feuds and the like are the most troublesome."

"After being born, subjugating everyone outright is the wisest."

Lu Zhangsheng mutters to himself; he doesn't want to be like some novel protagonists.

And still have to focus his thoughts on that.

Everyone's already taking the Heavenly Pride path.

Of course, one must suppress anyone encountered all the way.

"Wait, since Mother is going to attend the lecture, does that finally mean I can change locations?"

Suddenly, Lu Zhangsheng realized something, a burst of joy; he had just been wondering how to get the other party to move around.

Now it's happening—good, good, finally I have a chance to sign in again, the Lesser Immortal Realm, the Elder Ancestors' seclusion site; just hearing that sounds impressive, though I have no idea what reward I might obtain.

He thought, feeling very eager, after all it was the first Primordial Dao Fetus he obtained.

The second time shouldn't be any less, right?

Moreover.

Just speaking of the location.

The prestige of the name Lesser Immortal Realm.

It's far stronger than the Weiyang Heavenly Palace.

And just as Lu Zhangsheng was excited, he discovered that Mother had already set out.

The Lu Family's Zudi stands as its own domain.

Here are mountains and rivers, palaces aplenty, and countless divine islands suspended in the void.

From afar, innumerable thousand‑foot waterfalls cascade, resembling countless jade dragons.

Deeper within the highest peaks, amid clouds and mist, immortal cranes flutter, auspicious beasts weave through, seven‑colored rainbow bridges rise and fall, dazzling orchids, making one think they've entered the Immortal Realm.

Yet such scenery is already commonplace to members of the Lu Family.

And this is merely a corner of an immortal‑level power.

Following Purple Fairy as she soars through the sky.

She passes over palace after palace and countless divine peaks.

After a long while she reaches the core of the Lu Family's Zudi, a vast, desolate expanse.

Directly ahead stands a massive, circular portal, with layers of divine light swirling, its material unknown, etched with arcane patterns, exuding an ancient aura.

Looking up, above the Sky Dome, one massive star after another drifts, shedding countless starlights.

It feels dense and weighty, as if left from the moment heaven and earth first opened, delivering a tremendous impact.

"Is this place the seclusion site of the Elder Ancestors, the entrance to the Lesser Immortal Realm?"

Purple Fairy speaks, even though she once also held an extraordinary status.

She is a saintess of a holy land, with vast experience.

Yet upon arriving here, she was truly shocked.

She begins to silently assess in her mind: the Lu Family's foundation, when viewed across the vast world, is probably unmatched.

Without further thought, Purple Fairy takes a deep breath, steps forward, and enters the Lesser Immortal Realm.
