Unlimited Investment in the Destined Protagonist: Forging an Eternal Immortal Clan - Chapter 6

Chapter 6: The Clan’s Shock, Investing in Ling Xiyue, and Generous Rewards!

Arriving at the central area of the royal mansion, Lu Qingxuan immediately buried the low-grade Heaven-grade spiritual vein underground. In an instant, the spiritual energy throughout the entire Lu Royal Mansion surged dramatically.

Originally, the Lu Royal Mansion only had four high-tier Earth-tier spiritual veins and one top-grade Earth-tier spiritual vein, which had been sufficient for the mansion’s needs.

Moreover, with the recent addition of a low-grade Heaven-grade spirit-gathering array, the concentration of spiritual energy had already increased significantly.

But now, with the addition of a low-grade Heaven-grade spiritual vein, the environment underwent a tremendous transformation in an instant.

The spiritual energy released by that low-grade Heaven-grade vein quickly enveloped the surroundings. The energy was so dense that strands of pure spiritual energy transformed into a misty haze, spreading throughout the entire Lu Royal Mansion.

The sudden surge in spiritual energy immediately caught the attention of many clan members.

“Huh … Why has the spiritual energy suddenly become so dense? What’s going on?”

“Could it be that a new spiritual vein has been added to the mansion?”

“Haha … With such a powerful and rich surge of spiritual energy, this is amazing! I originally thought it would take me over a month to break through to the True Spirit Realm, but now, I can do it in just a day or two!”

The Lu clan members were all shocked by the sudden increase in spiritual energy, exclaiming in amazement.

At this moment, the Second Elder, Lu Changfeng, who had already broken through to the Spiritual Pill Realm, stepped out of his room. His pupils shrank, and his mind was struck with awe.

“This …” As a Spiritual Pill Realm expert, he was far more sensitive to the changes in the mansion’s spiritual energy than others.

In the next moment, he used an earth-vein detection technique and quickly discovered that a new spiritual vein had appeared beneath the Lu Royal Mansion.

“This is a low-grade Heaven-grade spiritual vein!?” The Second Elder’s eyes widened in disbelief. After all, no faction in the entire Beiyuan County possessed a Heaven-grade spiritual vein—not even top-grade Earth-tier veins were common. Yet now, the Lu Royal Mansion had suddenly gained a Heaven-grade spiritual vein. How could this not shock him to his core?

“Could this be the work of the Lord?”

Suppressing his astonishment, just as he was about to seek out Lu Qingxuan for answers, Lu Qingxuan’s figure suddenly appeared.

“Second Elder, a Heaven-grade spiritual vein has been added to the Lu Royal Mansion. Inform the clan members to cultivate diligently, but don’t spread the news widely. They should focus on increasing their strength as quickly as possible.”

Regarding the addition of a Heaven-grade spiritual vein to their family, he didn’t want to attract the envy of other factions, so he gave this brief instruction.

After speaking, Lu Qingxuan took out five jade bottles and a mineral vein map, tossing them to the Second Elder.

“These five bottles of Purple Extreme Pills—please distribute them to the other core elders, Second Elder, and have them improve their cultivation as well. And this map of the Canglan Purple Gold mineral vein—arrange for clan members to start mining it immediately!”

With that, Lu Qingxuan’s figure flashed and disappeared.

Staring at Lu Qingxuan’s vanishing silhouette, the Second Elder stood frozen in place.

It took him a moment to snap out of it. Looking at the items before him, he exclaimed in awe, “This is indeed the Lord’s doing! And these Purple Extreme Pills and a map to the Canglan Purple Gold mineral vein—what kind of opportunity has the Lord encountered!?”

Though he had some doubts, he had no intention of prying further. After all, everything the Lord was doing was for the great development of the clan. As an elder, he only needed to fulfill his duties.

Looking at the Purple Extreme Pills in his hand, the Second Elder’s heart stirred. These were the best pills for advancing Purple Mansion Realm cultivators. Even though he had lingered in the Purple Mansion Realm for years, he had never used such high-quality pills.

Yet this new Lord casually handed over five bottles.

And then there was this unmined Earth-tier Canglan Purple Gold mineral vein—a key material for forging top-grade Earth-tier treasures!

Once it was mined, whether used to craft Earth-tier treasures or traded for cultivation resources, he couldn’t even imagine how much benefit it would bring to the Lu Royal Mansion.

At this thought, a fiery gleam flashed in his eyes. Having given his instructions to the Second Elder, Lu Qingxuan returned to his room and began cultivating.

After all, while the Lu Royal Mansion seemed safe for now, Lu Qingxuan knew that the three major families would surely continue to encroach on the mansion’s various industries.

The only solution was to strengthen the Lu Royal Mansion as quickly as possible.

Ten days later.

Lu Qingxuan emerged from his room, his cultivation having broken through to the seventh layer of the Purple Mansion Realm. This time, he left seclusion intending to check on Ling Xiyue.

He couldn’t just ignore her after their intimate encounter, could he? Of course, Lu Qingxuan also wanted to share a dual-cultivation technique with Ling Xiyue this time, hoping they could better practice the “Kun” technique together in the future.

During this period, he had briefly studied the technique and found it profoundly mysterious.

Meanwhile, in Ling Xiyue’s room. She was sitting cross-legged on a soft couch, cultivating and attempting another breakthrough. But once again, she failed to reach the Spiritual Pill Realm, as all her spiritual energy was devoured by that mark.

“Sigh, still no good!” Ling Xiyue sighed softly, a hint of helplessness on her face.

As she slowly ceased her efforts, Lu Qingxuan’s image surfaced in her mind again. Since their intimate encounter ten days ago, his handsome and refined face would occasionally flash through her thoughts.

She didn’t know why such ideas kept popping into her head.

“It’s been ten days. I wonder if the Lord still remembers me!”

At that moment, Ling Xiyue’s thoughts wandered, and she couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. Though she was the lawfully wedded wife of the Lu Royal Mansion and now its Lady, she also knew that Lu Qingxuan wouldn’t belong to her alone.

She was self-aware enough to understand that.

For a royal mansion with a long legacy, the Lord’s lineage couldn’t depend solely on her.

“I’ll just try to break through one more time!” Pushing aside her stray thoughts, Ling Xiyue made up her mind. Only when she focused on cultivation could she avoid overthinking other matters.

What she didn’t realize, however, was that deep in her heart, she had already been claimed by the man who took her first time.

Just then, Lu Qingxuan’s figure walked in from outside.

Seeing that familiar face, Ling Xiyue’s heart leaped with joy.

“My Lord!” Ling Xiyue immediately stood up, giving Lu Qingxuan a courteous bow and speaking softly.

Lu Qingxuan nodded slightly and asked, “Xiyue, has your cultivation made any breakthroughs?”

Ling Xiyue shook her head, a trace of disappointment on her face.

Seeing this, Lu Qingxuan activated his True Sight, noting that her cultivation hadn’t advanced and that her Exquisite Divine Physique still hadn’t awakened.

“Could it be that the pure Yang energy I gave her wasn’t enough?” Lu Qingxuan looked at Ling Xiyue thoughtfully.

It seemed he’d need to practice the “Kun” technique with his Lady more often in the future.

As Lu Qingxuan’s thoughts turned, the system’s investment prompt sounded again.

[Ding! Golden investment target detected. Host may initiate investment!]

Well, well! Lu Qingxuan’s eyes brightened.

He hadn’t expected he could invest in Ling Xiyue, though it made sense upon reflection.

Since Ling Xiyue had married into the Lu Royal Mansion and was now part of the clan, it was only natural she could trigger the system’s investment feature.

[Ding! Invest one Sword Dao Crystal Stone to receive three low-grade Heaven-grade spiritual veins and a map to a low-grade spirit stone vein!]

[Ding! Invest one Mysterious Insight Golden Pill to receive two bottles of Jade Spirit Divine Pills, three pots of Myriad Treasure Pills, and 200 portions of rare Earth-tier spiritual herb seeds!]

[Ding! Invest the high-tier Heaven-grade technique Great Yin-Yang Dual Cultivation Secret Art to receive the King-tier martial skill Primordial Prison-Suppressing Force and the top-grade Heaven-grade technique Silent Thundercloud Method!]

Seeing the rewards from the investment, Lu Qingxuan marveled inwardly. Truly worthy of a golden investment!

Suppressing his excitement, Lu Qingxuan comforted her, “Xiyue, don’t lose heart. I believe you’ll definitely break through to the Spiritual Pill Realm.”

With that, he took out a scroll and handed it to her. “I have a special high-tier Heaven-grade secret art here. Perhaps it can help you achieve a breakthrough!”

Hearing it was a high-tier Heaven-grade technique, Ling Xiyue’s beautiful eyes widened. She hadn’t expected the Lu Royal Mansion to possess a technique of this caliber. She reached out with her delicate hand, taking the scroll and examining it.

“A dual-cultivation secret art?”

After a moment, a blush spread across Ling Xiyue’s cheeks, and she glanced at Lu Qingxuan with a shy, evasive look.

Lu Qingxuan wasn’t embarrassed and instead asked, “Xiyue, this technique contains the principles of Yin and Yang. If we cultivate it together, we should both reap significant benefits. Would you like to give it a try?”

At his words, Ling Xiyue’s cheeks flushed even deeper. Though she didn’t verbally agree, she unconsciously nodded.

To have access to such a wondrous technique—she naturally wanted to try it and see if it could help her break through. Besides, she was now the Lady of the Lu Royal Mansion. Practicing a dual-cultivation technique with Lu Qingxuan wasn’t something she couldn’t accept.
