(Two-in-one chapter seeking monthly ticket)_6 This Gao Hu, although very formidable, is still an outsider after all.
With the deterrence of his cousin, he shouldn’t dare to cross the line.
However, the whole winter passed and it was fast approaching the day the Changchun Sect recruits new members, but this neighbor Gao hadn’t shown a hint of seeking him out.
Either deeply engaged in cultivation every day or practicing his Daoism in the courtyard, or hunting demonic beasts outside.
His daily behavior is indeed completely consistent with how he described himself.

It seemed as though he had really been persevering rigorously for dozens of years to achieve his current strength – making perfect sense.
There were times when this Old Gao would cut up the meat from his harvested demonic beasts, just like usual, and distribute it to his neighbors.
Each time they met, he would greet them as kindly as before, sometimes gifting the girls with strange little trinkets.
Yet he wouldn’t mention a word about asking him for help.
Even if one was pretending, could he continue the act so perfectly forever?
If so, then he would indeed be a nice person.
Nevermind the neighbors, as time passed…
Li Rong discovered that his own girl had gradually begun to change her impression of Old Gao, even frequently visiting him next door, and he couldn’t seem to stop her.
“This Gao…
I don’t believe him, he must be pretending to improve my impression of him.
As soon as I soften, I would have fallen for his scheme.”
In the courtyard, Li Rong reclined on the rattan chair after dinner.
Not thinking about his daughter’s mother anymore, he spent the whole day pondering about Old Gao, “There should be something wrong with this Old Gao…
I have to get my cousin to help convince him to join Changchun Sect.
I mustn’t fall for his trap.
I need to cut down on the girl’s visits too.
She doesn’t listen after telling her so many times, is she afraid she won’t end up married?!
Aiyah!”
He suddenly got up, only to realize that his daughter was missing, immediately his face fell.
He was about to get up to go to Old Gao’s house to look next door.
At the door, his daughter Li Xue was humming a tune and holding a sparkling object, bouncing her way in.
Li Rong’s face darkened, “You?
You’ve accepted something from Old Gao again?”
He hadn’t even finished speaking when, like a lit bonfire, he sprang forward.
He snatched the object from his daughter’s hand and violently threw it onto the ground.
“Smack——”
“Dad!——”
The sounds of the object shattering and the cry of his daughter rang out simultaneously.
“Dad, why would you do that?
This is the wireless kite Uncle Gao bought for me, sob…
This was the toy mom loved playing with me, you owe me!”
Li Rong was stunned, then even more infuriated, “This thing can only be found at Fengxue Village which lies 500 miles away, are you telling me Uncle Gao traveled that far just to buy it for you?”
Unable to control himself, he swooped down on Li Xue, his palm ‘smack’ landing on her backside.
Li Xue’s crying intensified, “I didn’t ask him to buy it, you asked the neighbors who are going there to buy a wireless kite for me, he happened to pass by when he was hunting demonic beasts a few days ago and bought it…”
Li Rong was stunned and then he remembered that a few days ago, to satisfy his daughter, he did ask his neighbors to buy a wireless kite if they were to pass by Fengxue Village.
At this point, the commotion had attracted the neighbors, who all came to mediate the situation.
However, Chen Dengming was nowhere to be seen.
At this moment, he was sitting in his room, preparing to attempt a breakthrough to Foundation Establishment for the last time.
Of course, this time, it was merely a small trial.
According to the “Explanation on Foundation Building”, unless one is absolutely certain, the first attempt to break through Foundation Establishment should be a knock on the door, a brief feeling, and familiarisation with this sensation.
The wireless kite bought for Li Xue was simply a cheap trinket he had picked up when he went to Fengxue Village to purchase a medicament to aid his breakthrough a few days earlier.
He wasn’t deliberately trying to please the girl.
To get Li Rong to change his mind and help him, he wouldn’t rely on Li Xue to indirectly rescue him.
He was instead demonstrating his potential to attempt to reach Foundation Establishment.
If there was something in the world louder than a low-grade Spirit Stone, it would be a mid-grade Spirit Stone, but louder than a Spirit Stone, there was raw power alone.
Life has its predicaments, it’s hard to force anything.
If there’s a cup of Foundation Establishment’s wine to be had, why bow one’s head outside!
