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

But Lu Ping'an's terrifyingly powerful punch also made the White Tiger wail, a sound of bones shattering echoing within its body.

"Die!"

At that moment, the girl seized the opportunity, forming seals with her hands, causing her flying sword to burst forth with sharp energy, slashing toward the White Tiger's neck.

She aimed to decapitate the White Tiger with a single sword stroke.

"Pff!"

However, the flying sword failed to sever the head, the blade stuck in the White Tiger's bones, causing it to howl in pain and struggle in the throes of death.

"Secret Technique—Primordial Chaos Extreme."

Seeing this, Lu Ping'an's true qi surged within him, he took a step forward, his fists like twin dragons leaving the sea, pummeling the White Tiger with relentless force.

One punch!

Two punches!

Three punches...

"Boom boom boom—"

A moment later, the White Tiger wailed, its eyes dimming.

"Hello, thank you for your help."

"My father's surname is Qin, my mother's surname is Yi, so my name is Qin Yi."

The girl in black stepped forward, looked at Lu Ping'an, and said with an expressionless face.

Upon hearing this self-introduction, Lu Ping'an grinned and replied, "Hello, my dad's surname is Lu, my mom's surname is also Lu, so, my name is Lu Ping'an."

"Pfft."

The girl, previously without expression, suddenly smiled at these words.

But the laughter caused the blood in her body to roll and surge, 'cough cough cough' spitting out fresh blood.

The blow from the White Tiger had been hard on her as well.

"Miss, are you alright? I have some medicine for healing here."

Seeing this, Lu Ping'an took out a porcelain bottle from his bag, poured out an elixir medicine, and handed it to the girl.

"You used two talismans to save me just now; I already owe you a favor."

"So I can't take this spirit pill, and I don't have money to repay you."

The girl in black instantly recognized that this was not a mundane elixir medicine but a spirit pill.

She thought to herself, what kind of a naive boy is this?

A man without any signs of spiritual power, a martial artist, yet possessing talismans and elixir medicines.

Moreover, a complete stranger, and yet he casually took them out to help.

"One should help out in the face of injustice, miss, you don't have to worry about it."

"You need not repay for the pill either."

Lu Ping'an grinned and waved it off with his hand.

Upon hearing this, the girl in black looked at the Lu Ping'an before her, her face showing a hint of conflict and distress.

Then she firmly said, "I, Qin Yi, do not owe anyone favors. I will accept this spirit pill. You take the White Tiger, and with this, we are even."

"I said there's no need to repay, and besides, what would I want with the carcass of the White Tiger?"

Lu Ping'an shook his head.

"This White Tiger demon could sell for more than twenty spirit stones, and you're saying you don't want it?"

"Aren't you here specifically to hunt this White Tiger demon?"

The girl asked with a somewhat astonished expression upon hearing this.

"No, I came to the mountain because I heard from the villagers that there was a White Tiger Great Demon eating people. I wanted to see for myself and thought of getting rid of the White Tiger, so the villagers could hunt with peace of mind," said Lu Ping'an with a smile.

Hearing this, the girl in black looked at the Lu Ping'an before her as if she was looking at an idiot.

She didn't expect that such people existed in the world.

A stranger to her but willing to use expensive talismans to help, and even offering elixir medicines for free.

And the reason he ventured up the mountain was because he heard about a White Tiger eating people.

"Regardless, I, Qin Yi, do not owe people favors, and you should take this White Tiger demon so that we are square," she continued to say, her face tight and devoid of expression.

She had already pegged Lu Ping'an as a fool from a landowner's family and did not want to take advantage of an idiot.

"Miss, you said this White Tiger demon is worth more than twenty spirit stones."

"My elixir medicines and talismans are not worth this much."

"If you feel uneasy about it in your heart, just sell the demon and give me the equivalent in spirit stones."

Seeing the girl was resolute, Lu Ping'an suggested this.

Having experienced life in the Crimson Whale Gang, and his interactions with Hong Yi, he had come to know some basic information about the prices in the Cultivation World.

He knew his two talismans and one elixir medicine were worth about seven spirit stones.

The girl felt tempted upon hearing this.

She had expended a lot of time and effort trying to hunt down this White Tiger demon.

Moreover, she couldn't bear to hand over all the spirit stones she obtained to someone else.

If they were to split the proceeds now, at least she would gain something.

And she wouldn't need to feel like she owed a favor.

"Fine, there's a gathering spot for loose cultivators on Cangya Mountain about five hundred miles from here," she said.

"Come with me, and I'll sell the White Tiger demon there. We can split the spirit stones."

"If it's inconvenient for you, just give me an address, and I'll deliver the spirit stones to you later," she offered crisply.

"A gathering spot for loose cultivators?"

"Alright, I'll go with you."

Lu Ping'an's eyes lit up at this.

He had always held a deep fascination for Cultivation, harboring intense interest in it.

It was only because he knew he had no Spiritual Root and thus no opportunity for Cultivation, that he never mentioned it back at home.

Now, hearing the girl mention a market for loose cultivators immediately sparked his curiosity, and he wanted to see for himself.

Soon after, once the girl had rested and healed her wounds, the two set off together.

....

Time flew swiftly, and in the blink of an eye, half a year passed.

Two months prior, the once bustling rumors about the Black Cloud Mountain ruins had also died down.

This had been only a small secret realm.

And within half a year, it had been completely scavenged, left as a desolate wasteland.

The Lu Family's venture into this secret realm had not been fruitful, and they had suffered losses including one Energy Refinement Late Stage and one Energy Refinement Middle Stage cultivator, a not insignificant setback.

However, Lu Changsheng had heard from Lu Yuanding that the Bai Family had quite the harvest from this expedition.

It was even possible that they would witness the birth of a new Foundation Establishment.

The Lu Family was pleased to hear this.

After all, the Bai Family and the Lu Family had a friendly relationship.

Now, as the Bai Family Ancestor's lifespan was dwindling, with only a bit more than ten years left,

If a new Foundation Establishment did not emerge, they would face the same peril that the Lu Family once did.
