Su Xiaoqi came from the Ancient Su Family.
Lu Changsheng had heard of the Ancient Su Family.
Similar to the Ancient Feng Family, the Ancient Su Family was an ancient cultivator clan that existed during Ancient Times, and it was said that they even had some connections with the legendary Chaos Race.
The Ancient Su Family had many strong cultivators, but this cultivator clan kept a low profile and rarely appeared before the world.
The entire Ancient Su Family cultivated in an independent space created by their ancestors.
Now that Su Xiaoqi was seeking Lu Changsheng’s protection for her elder sister, it seemed that the Ancient Su Family had encountered trouble, significant trouble at that.
“What has happened to your family? If you don’t tell your master the truth, he will have difficulty intervening.”
Lu Changsheng was not one to actively seek trouble.
Su Xiaoqi hesitated for a moment before saying, “About five hundred thousand years ago, our Ancient Su Family discovered a Mysterious Cave Heaven in the Deep Void. The experts within our family left en masse to explore it but got trapped inside. Later, the Ancestors of our Su Clan emerged from seclusion, and after some deliberation, decided to take a risk and enter the Mysterious Cave Heaven together to attempt rescuing our trapped family members… In the end, these Ancestors also got trapped inside… Eventually, our family’s Great Experts were alerted and personally took action to enter the Cave Heaven, yet they too became trapped…”
My goodness, this really is like sending in rescuers one after another in an endless loop.
The strong members of the Ancient Su Family had really lost their wits, causing all the powerful cultivators of the Ancient Su Family to be trapped in a space in the Deep Void.
However, Lu Changsheng thought that the Ancient Su Family’s irrational actions were due to two factors: firstly, the trapped members were geniuses of the family, and secondly, the Su Clan’s Ancestors were absolutely confident in their cultivation level.
Without Su Xiaoqi finishing her explanation, Lu Changsheng already understood the predicament of the Ancient Su Family.
All generations of experts from the Ancient Su Family were now trapped in the Deep Void, leaving only Su Xiaoqi’s generation as the strong ones. The Ancient Su Family’s strength had fallen more than just one level.
Just imagine – in Taihua Holy Land, if the Ancient Ancestors, Elder Ancestor of Lin Clan, Lin Xuantong, and other formidable cultivators were trapped, leaving only the Buyi Immortal Emperor, Fairy Shun Hua, Lu Changsheng, and Lin Qinghan, they would not be able to defend Mount Taihua at all.
The ancient families that bore grudges against the Ancient Su Family would certainly not miss this opportunity.
While the Heavenly Court ruled over the Immortal Realm, it would not interfere with the grievances between Holy Lands and prestigious families.
Su Xiaoqi continued, “With all the Ancestors trapped in an unknown Cave Heaven, my elder sister became the top expert of our family, dealing with the family affairs. At this time, the Ancient Helian Clan sought trouble with my elder sister, wanting her to marry into their family, and using this as an excuse to annex our Su Clan’s cultivation resources and treasures of Cultivation Techniques.”
Lu Changsheng indeed knew of the Ancient Helian Clan.
Among the cultivator clans of the Immortal Realm, the Helian Family was also a powerful family, on par with the Ancient Su Family in terms of strength.
If the Helian Family could assimilate the foundation of the Su Clan, then they would be on the heels of the Ancient Feng Family.
“The Ancient Helian Clan really has a good strategy, taking advantage of others’ peril to annex the foundation of an equivalent-level prestigious family.”
Hearing of what the Helian Family had done, Lu Changsheng felt contempt.
Su Xiaoqi indignantly said, “Exactly! Aside from the Ancient Helian Clan, the Ancient Huangfu Family also covets my elder sister and our Ancient Su Family’s resources. Therefore, my elder sister deceitfully dealt with the two ancient families, maneuvering between them, allowing her to play them against each other, thus stabilizing our Su Clan for five hundred thousand years. At the same time, she has been seeking help from other forces, striving to save our trapped Ancestors.”
Hearing Su Xiaoqi speak this way, it was clear that the elder sister of the Su Clan was truly a character, facing pressure from two ancient families and with all her family’s experts absent, she still managed to hold the situation steady for five hundred thousand years.

Others in her place would have long been unable to protect their family.
Su Xiaoqi went on, “But recently, the Ancient Helian Clan and the Ancient Huangfu Family have seen through my elder sister’s ruse. They have decided to divide up the resources of our Ancient Su Family. Knowing she couldn’t resist the two families, my elder sister chose to dissolve the Su Clan, allowing our family members to hide in various parts of the Immortal Realm, while she took all the resources with her in search of a place to hide. I trust my master, which is why I confided this matter to him.”
Su Xiaoqi’s eyes shone with brightness, full of trust in her master Lu Changsheng.
The master always rewarded her with treasures, never asking for so much as a needle or a thread in return, even sacrificing his own cultivation to transmit skills to her.
Thus, Su Xiaoqi believed her master was different from the Ancient Helian and Huangfu families; her master would not covet the Su Clan’s treasures.
Her intuition wasn’t wrong.
Lu Changsheng had the hundredfold cultivation resources provided by Taihua Holy Land and various high-level treasures returned from the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator; he had more cultivation resources than he could use, even sharing them with his Direct Disciples, as well as with Shangguan Zhao’er, Zhao Wuyan, Daoist Earth Hound, Xiaojin, Huo Wen, Tang Ling’er, Wu Wan’er, and others.
The Su Clan’s treasures?
Lu Changsheng truly wasn’t concerned.
“Disciple begs the master, please must take in my elder sister. Otherwise, she will be hunted down by the Ancient Helian and Huangfu families and have a slim chance of survival.”
Su Xiaoqi, clutching Lu Changsheng’s arm, rarely acted coquettishly with her master.
Su Xiaoqi had seen Lu Qinglian act this way with the master, so the master would generally agree to Lu Qinglian’s requests, and she copied her.
However, Lu Qinglian had been raised by Lu Changsheng as a daughter since she was young, which is why she could act this way toward Lu Changsheng…
