    Chapter 155: This Peach Blossom Luck can be really penalizing!

    “Whew, looks like it should be okay.”

    On the mountain peak, Lu Changsheng opened his eyes and lightly exhaled as the two medium grade spirit stones in his hand turned into pieces.

    He also stayed on this big mountain for most of the month.

    During this time no one sought it out at all, except for a few beasts that came to deliver their meals.

    So Lu Changsheng was also ready to go back.

    After all, if the other party really had the means, the greater part of a month would be enough time to find himself.

    The fact that it hasn’t been sought after for so long also means it’s okay.

    Walking out of the cave, Lu Changsheng released the Iron Feathered Eagle and was just about to take off when he saw a small mountain village at the foot of the mountain, with fires blazing in the sky.

    “Well, what’s going on here, bandits?”

    Lu Changsheng frowned slightly and looked carefully, vaguely hearing cries.

    Seeing this, he reclaimed the Iron Feathered Eagle back into his Spiritual Pet Bag and turned into a recluse to go check it out.

    Granted, he wasn’t of a nosy nature.

    But in this case, the look of the situation is that mountain bandits are entering the village and burning and looting.

    He had heard of it when he was young and had not awakened his memories.

    Now that I’ve come across it, I’ll help if I can.

    After all, one is born with basic morals.

    It is not as if after practicing immortality for a few years, one’s ego is so high that one sees death and does not care about the deaths of ordinary people.

    “Swish!”

    Lu Changsheng turned into a stream of light and flew towards the village.

    Not yet close, will see a group of dressed in black strong suit, riding horseback thieves are butchering and killing villagers, bursts of wailing and screaming out.

    “It’s horse thieves.”

    Lu Changsheng’s expression was stern.

    Horse thieves are even more detestable than the usual mountain bandits and robbers.

    They own horses that come and go without a trace.

    Therefore, ordinary mountain bandits and robbers would basically just loot a little bit in the surrounding villages and then leave.

    It’s a fine line.

    But with horse thieves looting, it’s all about mood.

    The slaughter of villages can be a regular occurrence.

    “Bold thief, killing innocents indiscriminately, suffer death!”

    Lu Changshi chortled in the air.

    The voice, empowered by mana, rumbled like thunder and spread throughout the village.

    “No good, it’s the Immortal Master, everyone retreat quickly!”

    A tall, ferocious, one-eyed stout man with a nine-ringed greatsword, hearing this deafening sound, was immediately scared to death and cried out.

    However, just as he finished his words, he saw a mori white flying sword flying straight towards him.

    Next moment.

    “Pfft!”

    Heads were raised and blood splattered!

    The other horse thieves who were burning and looting were horrified when they heard this.

    Immediately, he looked panicked and fled like a lost dog.

    “Immortal, it’s an immortal!”

    “It’s the Immortals! I’ve heard my grandfather tell me before that the legendary immortals would be able to fly on the wind …… It’s the immortals who have come to save us.”

    “Oooooooooooh, Immortal help!”

    When the remaining villagers heard the scolding, they were like drowning people grasping for a life preserver.

    Looking toward Lu Changsheng in the air, they raised their voices and kneeled down to salute.

    “Poof! Pfft! Poof–“

    Lu Changsheng, with a hunting vestment, stood in the air, his face expressionless, his Mori White Flying Sword was like a swimming dragon, his sword qi spreading across the sky, cutting down one horse thief after another.

    The horse thieves who were originally arrogant and domineering and abused the villagers were like chickens and ducks to be slaughtered under Lu Changsheng’s flying swords, and they perished directly when the sword qi arrived.

    “We Blood Cloud Thieves are ignorant, we don’t know that an Immortal Master is passing by here, and we would like to leave here, so please be magnanimous, Immortal!”

    “Immortal spare your life!”

    “Have mercy!”

    These horse thieves also knew that such immortal tactics as Lu Changsheng’s were simply not something they mortals could resist dealing with, and loudly begged for mercy.

    But Lu Changsheng didn’t have the slightest mercy.

    If he didn’t happen to pass by today, this Blood Cloud Bandit didn’t know how many people he would have to kill.

    This village, at least, is hardly immune.

    The other villagers watched Lu Changsheng decapitate the horse thieves, and while their hearts were happy, they couldn’t help but feel scared and numb.

    Even though these horse thieves deserve to die.

    However, Lu Changsheng’s expressionless and indifferent face, his sword rising and falling, killing a horse thief like cutting grass, also shook their hearts.

    One could not help but respect and fear this ‘immortal’.

    In a few moments, Lu Changsheng had cut down dozens of horse thieves.

    Looking at the flames burning in the village, he gave another big flick of his hand.

    At once, mana spread from his body like a hurricane, extinguishing the flames that were burning.

    Subsequently for some injured villagers, out to save.

    “Thank you, Immortal, thank you, Immortal!”

    “Thank you Immortal, the little old man will certainly knit the grass to repay the Immortal’s favor!”

    “Many thanks to the Immortal, I will set up a life shrine for you at home and pray for peace!”

    These villagers kneeled down to thank Lu Changsheng.

    They know their own family.

    Knowing that it was impossible to help Lu Changsheng.

    Thanks can only be expressed in this most simple way.

    “Ugh.”

    Lu Changsheng sighed in his heart when he saw many burnt huts and dead bodies.

    Even after so many years of cultivating Immortality and experiencing many things, he had a heart that was much lighter than it was at first.

    But seeing this scenario picture, the heart still can’t help but feel heavy with emotion.

    Whether it was the Immortal Cultivation World or the secular world, as long as one was at the bottom, it would always be the most grueling.

    It also made him once again glad that he had obtained the Immortal Fate in the first place and was able to cultivate Immortality and come this far.

    “Hmm?”

    Just as Lu Changsheng finished saving people and was about to leave, he saw a little girl in the crowd kneeling towards him.

    The girl was about ten years old.

    His face was a little dirty, and he wore a tattered gray linen coat.

    But from such a little girl, Lu Changsheng actually felt a few moments of strange temptation.

    This inexplicable feeling made Lu Changsheng’s heart lurch.

    As a man who had fought hundreds of battles and read thousands of sails, Lu Changsheng was very confident in himself when it came to female color.

    Definitely don’t believe that you would somehow have thoughts about a little girl.

    Especially such a dirty little girl.

    “There’s something wrong with this little girl!”

    Lu Changsheng carefully sized up this little girl.

    Immediately discovered that under the girl’s worn out gray linen clothes, at her neck, at her wrists, there were actually some white scales that looked like fish scales and snake scales growing.

    “Half-demon?”

    Seeing the scales, Lu Changsheng raised an eyebrow.

    But he didn’t sense a demonic aura from the little girl.

    He cast his Spiritual Eye Technique and looked toward the little girl.

    Seeing a faint aura lingering around the other party indicated that the other party had a spiritual root.

    “Something’s wrong, something’s definitely wrong.”

    At this moment, Lu Changsheng realized even more that there was something wrong with this little girl.

    Now that he had broken through Foundation Establishment and shed his mortal body, his spiritual awareness and five senses had all improved.

    Even without performing the Spiritual Eye Technique, one would be able to tell if a person had a spiritual root.

    But he had not seen that the little girl had a spiritual root just now.

    It was only now after casting the Spiritual Eye Technique that he could tell that the little girl possessed a spiritual root.

    “Could it be some special physique?”

    Lu Changsheng sized up the little girl and said in his heart.

    As if the little girl sensed Lu Changsheng looking at her, she shrunk her petite body in fear.

    “Supreme Immortal, it must have been this monster that attracted the horse thieves!”

    Some villagers also saw Lu Changsheng sizing up the little girl and immediately spoke out.

    “Yes, she’s a disaster.”

    “It was this monster that almost harmed our village!”

    “Please also ask the Immortals to exterminate this monster!”

    At once, a few more villagers spoke up.

    When the little girl heard this, she trembled in fear, her eyes brimming with tears.

    “Ya don’t cry, ya don’t cry.”

    An old woman with gray hair and wearing gray linen clothes next to her instantly wrapped her arms around the little girl and comforted her.

    “Granny Zhao, this monster is the Calamity, it’s you who adopted this monster, that’s why your son and daughter-in-law went out to work and never returned.”

    Another villager spoke up.

    These words immediately caused the old woman’s figure to stiffen.

    “What’s wrong with this little girl?”

    Lu Changsheng raised his hand slightly and voiced an inquiry, his tone flat.

    He could tell something was wrong with the little girl.

    But it’s hard to see exactly what’s going on.

    At this time, when he heard the words of the crowd, it seemed as if the people in the village, had already known that there was something wrong with this little girl.

    “Reporting to the Immortals, this monster was originally Xu Er’s daughter.”

    “Xu Er was originally a famous hunter in our village, but since giving birth to this monster, his days have been miserable.”

    “First, the mother-in-law had a difficult labor directly during the birth of her second doll, and lost both the person and the baby.”

    “Not many years later, Xu Er himself didn’t come back from a hunting trip up the mountain.”

    “Granny Zhao took pity on her and adopted her, but when she was seven or eight years old, she grew scales on her body, scales like those of a snake, what is this if not a monster.”

    “And after Granny Zhao adopted the creature, her son and daughter-in-law went into the city to work and haven’t been back.”

    “Now that our village is fine and we’ve been hit by horse thieves, it must have been caused by this calamity.”

    A few villagers spoke up.

    “Calamity, the monster.”

    For monsters, Lu Changsheng could not be denied.

    The girl situation, after all, is really weird.

    But Calamity’s words were not felt by Lu Changsheng.

    This generation, especially the poorer ones, had a risky baby.

    And hunting in the mountains and working outside the home are notoriously risky.

    “What is your name, and will you leave with me?”

    Lu Changsheng looked at the little girl and said, his tone gentle.

    He could see that this young girl was not simple, something was wrong.

    Since this village cannot accommodate this young girl, it would be better to take her back and raise her.

    Find out what’s going on with this little girl.

    Does it have some kind of special physique, or what’s going on.

    The little girl froze slightly when she heard Lu Changsheng’s words.

    From the youth in front of him, he felt a warmth and peace that he had never felt before.

    It’s a scent and a feeling.

    Like a spring breeze, it makes people subconsciously close and feel good about themselves.

    She didn’t answer.

    Just looking timidly at her mother-in-law beside her.

    “Supreme Immortal, the girl she’s very good, she’s not a monster.”

    Granny Zhao thought that Lu Changsheng was going to cut down the demons and carefully said.

    Naturally, she knew there was something wrong with the little girl.

    But after so many years together, she had long since taken the little girl as her own granddaughter.

    Not only are they well-behaved and obedient, but they also take the initiative to do their own farm work, laundry and cooking.

    Usually when she was aggrieved and bullied by other children, she secretly held it in and didn’t tell herself, which made her very heartbroken.

    As for the matter of her son and daughter-in-law, although it was difficult for her, there were some people in the village every year, who followed the traveler’s caravan to go out to work, and as a result, they never returned.

    So it’s not all this kid’s fault.

    “Hehe, I was seeing that this child has immortal destiny, so I thought of taking her away.”

    Lu Changsheng said with a light laugh.

    “Fairy Fate!”

    “What, this strange . The girl actually has immortal destiny.”

    “Supreme Immortal, are you looking at this wrong.”

    When the other villagers heard this, they couldn’t help but exclaim with envious voices.

    “Girl, hurry up and answer the Immortals!”

    Granny Zhao heard Lu Changsheng say that the little girl had immortal destiny and hurriedly said to the little girl.

    “But I’m a monster.”

    The little girl whispered.

    It wasn’t that she didn’t want to leave with Lu Changsheng.

    But she also felt a little apprehensive inside that she was a monster and would get into trouble.

    “I told you, you are not a monster, will you leave with me?”

    Lu Changsheng continued.

    “The girl is willing to leave with the immortal.”

    Seeing her mother-in-law urging her and Lu Changsheng saying this, the little girl immediately looked up and said in a good and timid manner.

    After saying that, with expectant eyes and a somewhat stuttering and trembling voice, he said, “Immortal, can you take Granny away with you.”

    “Not bad, filial piety is commendable, naturally.”

    Lu Changsheng smiled and nodded.

    The little girl was willing to leave with her, and it didn’t matter if she took an extra old woman with her.

    It’s not much of a hassle after all.

    He was also not prepared to put the little girl on Green Bamboo Mountain.

    Instead, they intend to settle in Ruyi County first.

    “Thank you, Immortal!”

    “Thank you, Supreme Immortal!”

    Little girl surprise.

    I didn’t expect Lu Changsheng to agree so readily.

    After all, she had just tangled also because she couldn’t let go of Granny Zhao.

    Granny Zhao was also elated and grateful.

    Her old partner has died, her son and daughter-in-law have gone away, and now that she has this kind of immortal fortune, she is naturally willing.

    “In that case, let’s go.”

    Looking at one more old and one more young should be down, Lu Changsheng did not say much.

    With a tap from the storage bag, a spirit boat appeared.

    He had a total of two spirit boats on him.

    It just usually feels conspicuous and a waste of spirit stones.

    Plus it’s swag again, so it doesn’t get used much.

    Now that there are two more people, the Iron Feathered Eagle is inconvenient, so it is natural to use the spirit boat.

    With a wave of their sleeves, the two drifted down to the spirit boat.

    Then under the congratulations of the other villagers, he harnessed the spirit boat and shot up into the sky, turning into a stream of light and flying towards Ruyi County.

    And right at this moment, Lu Changsheng sensed that the Peach Blossom Compass was harvesting a wave of peach blossom luck.

    Indicating that he had taken in this little girl was peachy.

    “That’s peachy, that’s criminal.”

    “Could it be that this is the underworld, the metaphysical and mysterious luck of the qi.”

    “Due to my peach blossom luck, I just happened to land on this big mountain to rest in the underworld, just happened to rest for most of the month, just happened to meet such a thing, and saw this little girl?”

    Lu Changsheng pondered in his heart.

    Ever since he had the Peach Blossom Compass, every time he encountered this kind of thing, Lu Changsheng would wonder if this would be related to the Peach Blossom Compass, if it was Peach Blossom Luck.

    Now that he saw the Peach Blossom Compass harvesting Peach Blossom Luck, he got confirmation that it was Peach Blossom Luck.

    Especially just now, if it wasn’t for the fact that Mo Ming sensed a temptation from the little girl and realized its abnormality, he didn’t even notice the other party.

    Lu Changsheng looked at the soft and timid little girl on the side and inquired in a warm voice, “Little girl, you haven’t told me what your name is yet.”

    “I’ll call the girl.”

    The little girl said.

    “Supreme Immortal, she doesn’t have a name, she’s just called Yatou.”

    At that moment, Granny Zhao said carefully.

    “No names.”

    Lu Changsheng was slightly stunned when he heard this.

    Also remember that in the countryside, it’s all about bitchy names that are good to feed.

    You don’t get a proper name until you’re old enough.

    And many girls don’t even have bitchy names.

    “In that case, how about I name you?”

    Lu Changsheng looked at the little girl and smiled.

    “Girl, why don’t you hurry up and say yes, and thank the Immortal for the name.”

    When Granny Zhao heard this, she immediately said to the little girl.

    “Thank you, Supreme Immortal.”

    The little girl also showed a few happy hopes when she heard this.

    All the other children in the village had names, but she never had one.

    Sometimes she wanted a name.

    “In the future, you will be called ‘White Spirit’, white as in white, spirit as in spirituality, how about it?”

    Lu Changsheng looked at the little girl’s wrist, revealing dots of white scales, and spoke out.

    “Bai Ling, girl, you’ll be called Bai Ling from now on, why don’t you thank the Immortal.”

    Granny Zhao added to the little girl.

    “Bai Ling thanks the Supreme Immortal.”

    The little girl listened to the name, pronounced it twice, and said happily.

    Lu Changsheng let out a light laugh, followed by a wave of his sleeve.

    A fresh breeze blows.

    “Swish-“

    Bai Ling’s dirty face, as if washed by a clear spring, became clean and white.

    The features are delicate and the eyes are black and white.

    Especially the skin looks very fair and delicate, like a porcelain doll.

    Although it was still the same shabby gray cloth, it was like a different person, not at all like a girl from a small mountain village.

    “Upper Fairy.”

    Bai Ling’s little face looked down at her palm and touched her flushed cheeks, a little shy.

    At the age of seven, when scales began to grow on her body, she realized that her skin was also gradually becoming white and greasy.

    Your own looks are getting better and better.

    But my mother-in-law said that was not good and kept mud and ashes to cover her up.

    So at this moment, when the mud stains subsided and she was allowed to reveal her true form, she was still a little uncomfortable and felt shy for a moment.

    Granny Zhao was also a bit shocked when she saw this scene.

    She had always known that Bai Ling was good looking, especially with skin that was not at all like that of a country bumpkin, better than a city lady.

    So every day she gets a little plastered.

    Causing her to almost forget about Bai Ling’s natural beauty-like appearance.

    At this time, looking at this kind of appearance, his heart also secretly said, no wonder it would be looked at by this superior immortal.

    “Don’t worry, there’s no need to cover up in front of me in the future.”

    Lu Changsheng stroked her head and said with a faint smile.

    Even though she’s a little girl, everyone loves beauty.

    Definitely don’t like having mud and grime on your face all day either.

    “Uh-huh, the White Spirit listens to the Immortal.”

    Bai Ling nodded her head obediently.

    Large eyes showed joy.

    As Lu Changsheng guessed, she didn’t like it either, with mud and dust plastered on her face every day.

    What girl doesn’t love beauty?

    “Buzz!”

    At that moment, Lu Changsheng slapped his storage bag again, and a gorgeous and exquisite dress emerged.

    “Which one do you like?”

    Lu Changsheng laughed.

    When he was at the Green Cloud Market, he had incidentally bought dozens of sets of vestments for his own children.

    Now that he had picked up a cute little girl, he naturally wouldn’t skimp on a set of vestments to dress her up.

    Besides, one mustn’t give a little benefit of the doubt when one has this general by one’s side?

    “The Supreme Immortal is giving me one?”

    Bai Ling’s eyes widened for a moment as she looked at the colorful, exquisitely gorgeous little dress in front of her.

    She hadn’t seen such nice clothes since she was a child.

    Completely lost for words, it simply took her eyes off the ground.

    “Why is the Immortal so kind to me?”

    Her eyes suddenly moistened as she said.

    Ever since she was a child, apart from Granny Zhao, she was the first person to treat her so well.

    Having only met, not only naming herself, but also giving her such precious and good-looking clothes, it made her brain a little giddy, and she was embarrassed to accept it.

    “You’re willing to come with me, so naturally I’m going to be nice to you.”

    Lu Changsheng smiled and rubbed her head.

    Then he said in a warm voice, “You can just call me brother from now on.”

    “Brother.”

    Hearing this, Bai Ling was stunned, her heart throbbing inexplicably.

    Then pursing her lips, she somewhat shyly shouted, “Brother.”

    “Hahaha, okay, so pick one.”

    Lu Changsheng sniffed, had rubbed her hair and laughed.

    Spinning around, Bai Ling looked around and finally chose a white dress.

    Because she had never worn such a clean skirt suit.

    Her brother also said that she wouldn’t have to get dirty anymore, so she would have to be clean all the time.

    When Granny Zhao on the side saw this scene, she was also overwhelmed with emotion in her heart, feeling happy for this child’s future.
