Chapter 531: Chapter 285 Return Home, Celebration_2
One glance indicated that this spear was no ordinary weapon; it had to be at least of the Superior Profound Artifact grade.
The wielder of such a precious weapon would unquestionably have considerable strength.
Why did they throw this spear from the void, yet not hurt anyone?
Was it a show of deterrence?
As Lu Yongsheng was quickly evaluating the situation, a voice sounded from the void.
“Years ago, General Lu gifted me the Dragon Scale Saber. Today, I return the favor with the Black Nether Spear. I hope you won’t refuse.”
The calm and steady voice fell from the void, echoing in Lu Yongsheng’s ears and all around the Black Tiger Army’s base camp.
“Dragon Scale Saber…”
A vision of a young man suddenly popped into Lu Yongsheng’s memory.
He remembered gifting a mid-level Profound Artifact, the Dragon Scale Saber, to Lu Yun.
“Is it really him?”
Lu Yongsheng laid his hand on the handle of the Black Nether Spear, instantly sensing a cold touch.
With a slight exertion of strength, the Black Nether Spear, weighing 2,500kg, lifted off the ground.
“What a great spear, truly a great spear,” Lu Yongsheng immediately admired it, feeling his True Origin in perfect harmony with the Black Nether Spear.
With the Black Nether Spear, he felt his power could increase by at least 30 percent.
He glanced up at the tranquil void and then whispered to himself, “Casually gifting a Superior Profound Artifact like the Black Nether Spear… just how strong has he become?”
At the same time, he was silently relieved that his past investment had not gone to waste.
A mid-level Profound Artifact was exchanged for a Superior Profound Artifact, appreciating more than tenfold in value.
Elsewhere, after performing the Instant Horizon technique several times, Lu Yun had reached Spirit Creek Village in Cloud Water County.
No matter how the outside world changed, Spirit Creek Village remained a peaceful haven, undisturbed and serene.
Every time he returned here, Lu Yun’s heart would naturally calm down.
It was like a young man who had made a name for himself in the bustling city after leaving his mountain village, returning to the quiet hamlet that nurtured him, would naturally feel at ease.
It had been almost two years since he last parted with his eldest brother and sister. Coupled with the significant changes in his height, appearance, and demeanor due to the practice of Great Sun Undying Golden Body, he wondered if they would still recognize him.
Moreover, after encountering so many people and experiencing so many things, memories of his brother and sister had grown somewhat blurry. He was eager to see them again.
“When I left last time, my eldest brother already had someone he admired. I wonder how things are progressing now.”
“My elder sister is not so young anymore, she should be married by now!”
With various thoughts, Lu Yun slowly set foot into Spirit Creek Village again.
As soon as he entered the village, he felt a lively atmosphere and noticed many people walking down the village path towards his home.
“Could it be…”
Lu Yun had a hunch about what was happening.
He hastened his steps, went round a few corners, and a vaguely familiar and mostly strange yard appeared before him.
Both inside and outside the yard were full of villagers, men, women, old and young. On the doors and windows of the slightly renovated houses, large red characters denoting ‘happiness’ were posted.
Lu He, wearing red wedding clothes, came to a brand-new red palanquin parked 150m from the yard and brought out the bride, also dressed in red wedding clothes. Then, with the crowd cheering him on, he blushed as he carried her back into the yard.
Along the way, many playful children followed the bride and groom, obviously very curious about the bride under the red veil.
“Tsk tsk, Lu family’s eldest son is really blessed! I heard the bride is the young lady of a family in Cloud Water County; she’s not only scholarly and polite but also very charming.”
“Isn’t it? He’s just got connected to the famous and desirable family of the county town, Lu family is going to flourish.”
“That might not necessarily be the case, don’t forget about the second son of the Lu family, he’s the darling of heaven. Perhaps it’s the bride who is attaching herself to the Lu family?”
“Yes, at that, the second son of Lu family is so well-known in Cloud Water County and Spirit Martial Prefecture, even the county magistrate would respectfully greet him…”
For a while, the yard was filled with the villagers talking amongst themselves.
“I didn’t expect today to really be eldest brother’s big happy day.” A wave of mixed emotions surged in Lu Yun’s heart.
Happiness, excitement, melancholy…
He didn’t know why, but he did not show himself, watching the scenery inside and outside the courtyard from afar.
Soon, he saw a handsome young man, about eighteen or nineteen, walking out of the new house. It was Yun Yu.
The Yun Yu of now, compared to two years ago, had changed significantly. There was no longer a childish look on his face, instead, there was a hint of maturity.
After eldest brother Lu He put the bride down, she propped him up and welcomed him into the room.
Lu Yun suppressed the urge to rush home, quietly flying in the air, silently watching the joyful event taking place in the courtyard below.
He did not want his arrival to cause any impact on Lu He’s celebration.
Today, Lu He was the protagonist.
Lu Yun also identified a few familiar yet unfamiliar faces in the courtyard.
There were Lu Tianhu and Lu Liangpeng, who had once accompanied him to Cloud Water County for the Martial Academy’s examination.
There was also old village head Lu Cangsheng, his hair white and body withered.
There was also the upright and in his prime Lu Cang, and Lu Meng, who had once taught Lu Yun.
These people, more or less, had had some connection with Lu Yun. Seeing them again, there was an inevitable sigh at the transience of the world.
…
Lu Yun stayed in the air for a whole day. He did not return home until the following morning when all the festivities had come to an end and the villagers had all left.
“You are…” Lu Yu, who had just gotten up to clean, looked at Lu Yun who had suddenly appeared in their yard with surprise and confusion.
“Xiaoyun…” Lu Yu almost screamed out, but was promptly stopped by Lu Yun.
“Sister, don’t disturb the rest of our eldest brother and his wife.” While saying so, he was careful to glance in the direction of the bridal chamber.
In fact, with his strength, he could easily conceal all noise.
However, in this place, in this courtyard, in front of his closest family, he didn’t want to use those extraordinary powers.
“Hehe, at this time, eldest brother and his wife should be waking up. There’s no need to be so cautious.” Lu Yu laughed as she excitedly pulled Lu Yun into the living room.
Post-wedding, the living room was in a bit of a mess. There were big red characters everywhere, and a lot of stuff lying around.
Lu Yun chatted with Lu Yu while helping to clean up.
Not long after, Lu He came into the living room with a woman dressed in purple, her hair adorned with a golden hairpin.
The woman had a pointed chin and was very pretty. She seemed to be new to worldly affairs and there was still a trace of blush on her face.
“Xiaoyu, your sister-in-law and I have come to help you clean up,” Lu He’s boisterous voice sounded as soon as they entered the room.
“Who is this…”
Then Lu He’s gaze fell on Lu Yun. Unlike Lu Yu, who recognized Lu Yun at a glance, he looked closely for a while before widening his eyes and said in disbelief, “You are… Xiaoyun?”
“Haha, eldest brother, how come you almost couldn’t recognize me after only two years? Or is it that once you got married, you forgot about your own brother?”
Lu Yun joked before moving forward to meet the woman in purple, bowing slightly, “Lu Yun pays respect to sister-in-law.”
Hearing that the extraordinary young man in front of her was Lu Yun, the woman in purple was instantly reminded of something. A look of shock and surprise crossed her face, to the point that she didn’t notice Lu Yun’s bow.
The name of Lu Yun might not be well-understood by the villagers of Spirit Creek Village, but she, from a family in Cloud Water County, was very clear about what the name Lu Yun represented.
That was the Martial Academy’s Saint Child of Flying Spirit, the only Saint Child among all the Martial Academies in Ling Province, and the Honorary Executive of the Ling Province Alchemist Union. With unparalleled talent and ability, his mere stomping could cause a tremor throughout the Spirit Martial Prefecture.
Marrying Lu He was partly because of his pure and honest nature, and partly due to the factor of Lu Yun.
Even the fact that she and Lu He had met was due to a deliberate arrangement by her family.
Now, with Lu Yun suddenly appearing in front of her, besides shock and surprise, she also felt a hint of unease.
