This trip turned out to be a close call with no real danger, but the relationship between Lu Chang'sheng and the Zhu Family had pretty much hit rock bottom.
After they picked up their people, neither side made any effort to greet the other.
Lu Chang'sheng and his companions didn't linger—they headed straight back to Platinum Immortal City.
The whole family settled into the residence they'd purchased earlier.
Half a year later.
It was Mrs. Lu's birthday. Neither she nor Lu Chang'sheng wanted to make a big deal out of it, so they just invited a few friends living in the Great Yuan territories.
On the day itself, Daoist Ruyi, Yu Hai and his father, and others showed up, one after another, to take their seats.
Because Qu Yan had married into the Lu Family, Wan Yu also got an invitation.
After dinner, Yu Hai updated Lu Chang'sheng on what had been happening over the past six months.
Especially regarding the Empress.
