The Leisurely Life of a Young Man in the World of Cultivation

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuange immediately became anxious.

"What? I don't want to get it tattooed anymore? Fine, I don't want to get it tattooed anymore!"

Unfortunately, faced with Lao Deng's struggles, Lu Changfeng merely smiled wickedly and then pushed him down.

"Don't worry, I'm your son, your own flesh and blood. Would I ever harm you?"

"Besides, given the healing effects of my Azure Lotus Qi, it would be difficult for you to die even if you wanted to!"

If I, a super expert at the Golden Core stage, can't even protect someone at the early Foundation Establishment stage, then this cheat ability is truly wasted.

Although Lu Changfeng said that, Lu Yuange didn't believe a single word of it.

With that kid's credit, he wouldn't even lend him half a spirit stone!

Unfortunately, in the end, he could only be humiliated and controlled, forced to watch as Lu Changfeng wrote and drew on his body.

Lu Yuange was groggily awakened from his sleep, not knowing how much time had passed.

The first thing I saw when I opened my eyes was Lu Changfeng's large face, but there was no joy on his face, only worry.

"Old Deng, Old Deng, I'm so sorry!"

Upon hearing this, Old Deng felt as if the sky had fallen.

"What?! You brat, explain yourself clearly!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuange took out a mirror. Looking at his still-impressive reflection, he was filled with smugness.

As expected of him, even with so many kids, he's still so handsome.

But he soon discovered the problem.

"Wait, where did the tortoise battle mark on his left shoulder go?"

Seeing that her turtle was gone, and looking at Lu Changfeng's distressed face, Lu Yuange finally realized the seriousness of the situation.

Could it be that the engraving failed, causing the battle runes to disappear?

Thinking of this, he breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled and patted Lu Changfeng on the shoulder.

"Hey kid, why are you so upset? It's just a battle mark. I didn't have one before. Just pretend it never happened!"

Hearing this, Lu Changfeng felt a warmth in his heart. He hadn't expected that Old Deng could sometimes actually have a human side.

Instead of blaming myself when something like this happens, I comfort myself.

But the next moment he immediately overturned his previous idea.

After looking around and finding no one else in the room, Lu Yuange immediately rubbed his hands together with an evil grin.

"You brat, I can accept losing my battle runes, but you can't skimp on compensation!"

"I don't need much of your Green Bamboo Wine, just give me a hundred or two hundred jars, and that Spirit Tea, a hundred or so catties would be fine too!"

"Just give me these two, and we'll call it a day, okay?"

Lu Changfeng was so angry he laughed.

Okay, okay, Old Deng, I'm really sorry for changing my opinion of you earlier.

Don't start crying now!

"No, Old Deng, the battle runes were actually a success!"

"but!"

Upon hearing this "but," Lu Yuange was startled.

Once something like this happens, it's no small matter.

"Tell me, I can accept it no matter what the circumstances!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng immediately stated his planned statement.

"Old Deng, the battle rune didn't fail, but the ink used for this rune was something I exchanged with the sect leader!"

"One of the ingredients is the essence of a sea dragon, which is suitable for those in the early stages of the Nascent Soul realm!"

"It's all my fault. I was only thinking of making your battle runes as good as possible, but I made them too good for you, and you couldn't handle it!"

"The fact that you're still able to maintain a semblance of human appearance is a result of the combined efforts of me, my older sister, and Mom!"

"But even so, you only have one hour!"

Lu Yuange was now completely panicked.

"One hour, and then what happens after that hour?"

Lu Changfeng sighed again.

"In one hour, you will become a monster that is neither a turtle nor a sea dragon, and you won't even have your own consciousness! You will be unable to speak, everyone will be afraid of you, and you will eventually die in endless agony!"

After saying that, she left the room with a sorrowful expression, leaving Lu Yuange alone.

After leaving, the sorrow on her face instantly turned into joy.

Because everything I just said was a lie.

My mom and older sister actually went out to buy food for the three kids.

Adults are either at the Foundation Establishment or Golden Core stage; they can already practice abstinence from grains, but children cannot.

But for Lu Yuange, who was inside the room, this was like the sky falling.

Now he finally understood why his wife and eldest daughter were gone.

He must have been thinking about how he was going to turn into a monster and couldn't bear it, so he had no choice but to send this brat over.

He wanted to blame the brat, but he couldn't.

After all, the brat meant well but messed things up. The essence blood of a Nascent Soul cultivator, and from the Dragon Clan at that, is obviously incredibly valuable. The brat must have paid a huge price to get it.

He was just a freeloader; how could he blame the brat? He couldn't!

But since that's the case, let's take advantage of this last hour to say goodbye properly!

Thinking of this, he suddenly closed his eyes, because he didn't want the tears to fall. Even in the last moments of his life, he had to pretend to be a tough guy before he died!

But why did he feel so much like crying?

Oh oh oh!

After recovering for a few minutes, he slowly pushed open the door to the room.

At this moment, the dining table in the living room is already set with a steaming hot dinner.

However, in Lu Yuange's eyes, this scene meant his last meal.

An overwhelming sadness washed over him once again.

He really, really didn't want to leave.

What a beautiful wife, what adorable children, the eldest daughter is incredibly talented and the pride of the family, and the second son... well, never mind!

Seeing Lu Yuange standing there, Zhuge Feng also looked bewildered.

Didn't you successfully draw the battle runes? Why do you look like you're about to die a heroic death?

After glancing at Lu Changfeng, Zhuge Feng already had a rough idea in her mind.

It's definitely because of that brat.

He also had a toothache. "You brat, can you watch your temper? Look at what your dad's become!"

Faced with his mother's gaze, Lu Changfeng simply gave her a relieved look.

Besides, it would be beneficial for both sides if they screwed over Old Deng!

He reaped happiness, and Lao Deng strengthened his resolve to cultivate his Dao.

Double happiness!

"Old Lu, don't just stand there, come and eat!"

Lu Yuange nodded silently, then sat down at the table and began to eat.

Dinner was almost finished quickly.

Lu Yuange put down her chopsticks, then looked at everyone with red eyes.

"My family, I love you all!"

"Take care of yourselves in the days to come without me!"

After saying that, he spread his arms wide, looking as if he were about to be executed.

However, apart from Lu Changfeng, who was secretly laughing, everyone else looked completely bewildered.

Finally, Lu Rou spoke up with a puzzled look on her face.

"Old Deng, you're talking as if you're about to die!"

"What happened?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuange suddenly opened his eyes and stared straight at everyone. It was one thing for the children to be confused, but why did the adults also look so bewildered?

Could it be that...?

He immediately turned his gaze to Lu Changfeng, who was bowing his head and trembling.

I thought they were grieving, but the occasional sounds coming from them didn't sound like crying; they sounded like they were secretly laughing!

A quick scan with his divine sense revealed that Lu Yuange's mouth twisted in anger, because this brat was genuinely laughing.

Now he understood perfectly well that he had been tricked again.

"Aaaaah, Lu Changfeng, you tricked me again! Die!"

As he spoke, Lu Yuange stepped onto the dining table and pounced over!
