Chapter 296: Chapter 140: Yun Wanshang: How Could It Be Him?_1
Red Leaf Valley Market.
The streets were sparsely populated with pedestrians, hardly bustling with activity.
Lu Changsheng carried his daughter Lu Qingzhu while strolling through the market with his wife, Lu Miaoge.
“Little Bamboo, do you like this?”
Lu Miaoge, her hair piled up high, her features delicate and gentle, held up a small toy to ask her daughter.
“Oh.”
Lu Qingzhu gave it a few glances before responding.
“It seems you don’t like it.”
Lu Changsheng, observing his daughter’s reaction, said with a smile.
The little girl was already two years old.
She was as cute as a button, extremely adorable.
It’s just that she had a somewhat simple and straightforward personality.
She was not fussy or noisy, quiet, and well-behaved.
Even when Lu Changsheng pinched her lightly for no reason, she would just look up at him, her father, with a wronged expression.
She was entirely different from the mischievous and active Lu Qingshan.
“Isn’t that Miss Lu Miaoge? Your child has grown so big already.”
“No wonder Mr. Lu, the Talisman Master, is so devoted to the Lu Family. It seems your family’s investments are quite substantial.”
At this moment, a group of men and women approached from not far away.
One of the young men in blue robes, upon seeing Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge, had a smirk and spoke teasingly.

“Third Young Master Yu, are we that familiar with you?”
Lu Changsheng turned his head, his expression impassive, and spoke indifferently.
This young man in blue robes was none other than Yu Ningyuan, the Third Young Master of the Yu Family, who had once tried to recruit him at the Nine Dragons Market.
As for the Third Young Master of the Yu Family, he had no favorable impression of him.
Or rather, he had no favorable impression of the entire Yu Family.
After all, based on his conjecture, the assaults on Lu Miaoge and himself during his return trip were very likely orchestrated by the Yu Family.
When the Third Young Master of the Yu Family had come to the Nine Dragons Market to recruit him, the incident might have been related to them.
All these matters were engraved in his memory.
Once his strength was sufficient, he would settle these accounts.
“Hmph.”
Yu Ningyuan saw that Lu Changsheng gave him no regard and his expression darkened.
But he did nothing more than give a cold snort.
After all, the Red Leaf Valley Market was considered his family’s marketplace.
It was still in its initial phase of development.
He wouldn’t start a conflict within the market and risk tarnishing its reputation.
Otherwise, faced with Lu Changsheng’s slight, he would not have let it go so easily.
“Lu Changsheng…”
After Yu Ningyuan left, he glanced back at Lu Changsheng once more.
He knew in his heart that Lu Changsheng was no simple character.
The man had saved Lu Miaoge before, and he had come out unscathed after the assassination attempts he had ordered.
During the battle between the Lu and Bai Families that led to the downfall of Red Leaf Valley, Changsheng played a significant role.
He was aware that the latter was not someone easy to handle.
“Changsheng, you should still be careful with the Yu Family,” Lu Miaoge said softly to Lu Changsheng.
Although the Lu, Bai, Zheng, and Yu Families had collaborated to establish the Red Leaf Valley Market,
the relations among these four families had not significantly improved.
After all, the incident in Red Leaf Valley had been quite unpleasant.
“Sister Miaoge, I know,” Lu Changsheng nodded in response.
He was now a core member of the Lu Family and was privy to some of the intricacies involved.
After continuing their shopping for a while, the couple headed back to the Lu Family’s Spiritual Talisman Shop with their daughter.
As for Lu Changsheng’s own “Peace Talisman Hall,” he would stop by monthly to check the accounts and replenish talismans.
If he was too busy, he would let Lu Miaoge help out.
Mainly because the foot traffic in Red Leaf Valley Market was still rather average.
The monthly income primarily depended on his few Supreme Talismans, and there was not much to look into.
“Little Bamboo, haven’t you fallen asleep yet?”
Upon returning to the third floor of the Spiritual Talisman Shop, Lu Changsheng, thinking his daughter had fallen asleep in his arms, looked down to find a pair of bright eyes gazing back.
“Daddy, I’m not sleepy,” Lu Qingzhu said in her baby voice.
The little head nestled in Lu Changsheng’s arms, and her tender face gently rubbed against him.
“Are you hungry, then?”
Looking at his daughter’s adorable manner, Lu Changsheng felt immense satisfaction and love, giving her milky cheek a playful nibble.
“Oh.”
The little girl pondered briefly and then nodded with her lips pursed.
“You’re hungry and you don’t say it yourself, you little simpleton,” Lu Changsheng chuckled as he heard her.
He immediately took out a milk bottle and a jade bottle from the Storage Bag.
They contained Spiritual Dew, Spiritual Honey, and milk from Spiritual Beasts.
As a father to over a hundred children, he had long acquired a Storage Bag specifically for storing food for the kids.
After mixing the milk, Lu Changsheng skillfully fed his child.
Children of this age could already hold the milk bottle by themselves.
Lu Miaoge, watching Lu Changsheng feed their child, lingered with a gentle expression for a moment before heading to the Talisman Room to make talismans.
She had successfully created a Supreme Talisman last year.
But her success rate remained low.
Creating Supreme Talismans was still a losing business.
Lu Changsheng naturally provided guidance in talisman crafting as well,
but the effectiveness of such teachings was limited—it still depended on the individual.
This made Lu Changsheng realize that teaching the children talisman making and puppetry would be somewhat difficult.
You could invest heavily in the early stages,
but without natural talent in these areas, it was hard to cultivate skills.
As Lu Changsheng watched his daughter quietly drinking milk, he suddenly sensed something.
He took out a talisman from his Storage Bag.
Faint Spiritual Light flowed across the surface of the talisman.
“Xi Yue has arrived at the Red Leaf Valley Market,” he noted.
This was a Sensing Talisman.
Whenever a corresponding Communication Talisman was activated, the Sensing Talisman would perceive it.
However, this was only a First Grade Sensing Talisman; its range of sensing was limited.
Therefore, Lu Changsheng immediately knew that Xiao Xiyue had come to the Red Leaf Valley Market.
Right away, he went to the Talisman Room, informed Lu Miaoge, who was making talismans, that he needed to step out,
then carried his daughter toward the entrance of the Red Leaf Valley Market.
A quarter of an hour later,
Lu Changsheng arrived at the market exit.
He immediately saw Xiao Xiyue not far away, clad in a white dress, her tall and graceful figure exuding a cold and lofty air.
