The news that quickly followed was that the trouble in the Chen Family had been resolved, and True Immortal Chen, not forgetting his roots, had not vented his anger on anyone else regarding the Chen Family’s issues.
For a time, compliments from various entities flowed out non-stop.
At the same time, some powers with whom he had previous dealings began to express their hopes of inviting True Immortal Chen to their residence to reminisce old times.
Among the powers with no previous connections, the Wang’s family was undoubtedly the most anxious.
Five years ago when the Ascension Conference was held, the Wang Family Head, Wang Shiduo, regretfully missed the chance of immortality due to his inferior spiritual root.
He had no choice but to return to the mortal world with a cultivation technique.
...
In these five years, Wang Shiduo had practiced relentlessly and managed to attain the Innate Eightfold realm.
However, no matter how he tried to progress further, he found it extremely difficult to cross the threshold between the Innate and a Cultivator.
Every time he felt that he had cultivated a trace of supposed spiritual energy in accordance with the method in the cultivation technique, that trace of spiritual energy would disappear in an instant, without leaving a trace.
Under such circumstances, how could he breakthrough?
Hence, upon hearing that Chen Dengming still regarded old relationships, Wang Shiduo had already been considering seeking his guidance.
He was willing to even kneel down and beg to be his student for the sake of the Dao of Immortality.
However, while all these forces were seeking Chen Dengming, he had already left and headed to the palace in Nanxun.
!
A few days later.
Just as representatives from several powers traveled a great distance to Nanxun’s imperial city, Chen Dengming had once again left.
He departed on his vehicle, escorted by the emperor of Nanxun and numerous royal concubines and princes, leaving all these people to arrive at an empty palace.
This elusive behavior, reminiscent of a legendary overreaching dragon, left those who sought him with nothing to do but stare at the sky and sigh.
In fact, not only were the powers’ family helpless, the royal family felt the same too.
The so-called prime minister dreams of becoming the emperor, while the emperor dreams of immortality and eternal youth.
Did the Emperor of Nanxun not wish for immortality and eternal youth?
Did the royal concubines and princes not wish for the same?
Ordinary people always mistakenly believe that as long as they cultivate, they will live forever.
Little do they know that cultivating is difficult, and to live forever is even more so.
This time, Chen Dengming was in the royal family not only to use the royal library and gather intel on the Demon Star incident from the past, but also to ask the royal family to take care of his own bloodline in the future.
Therefore, in response to the royal family’s requests, he reciprocated in kind.
However, after a thorough inspection, he found that none of the royal family members, including the princes, princesses, and even the emperor, possessed spiritual roots.
He wasn’t sure whether it was due to the barren spiritual energy in the land of Nanxun which made it hard to spawn people with spiritual roots, or because the emperor’s genes were too strong, affecting his descendants’ chance at achieving immortality.
In the end, he could only gift some of the prepared spirit pills as a way of returning the favor.
At least, this maintained appearances.
The Emperor of Nanxun reciprocated by appointing Chen Jing as a different surname Xianwanghou, granting him ten thousand acres of land.
This could justifiably lead to the straight relocation of the Chen Mansion to the granted land as the old mansion was considered inauspicious due to the many deaths.
…
Seven days later.
Outside Nanxun.
On the Spirit Boat, Chen Dengming finished explaining how he had settled the family’s affairs in Nanxun.
He Yingyu handed over a cup of tea and asked with a concerned smile, “Since, apprentice brother, you have rescued two of your descendants, why not bring them out of Nanxun and send them to our sect for upbringing?
Even if they don’t possess spiritual roots, I believe with our abilities, we can ensure they live a wealthy and peaceful life.”
Taking the tea cup, Chen Dengming shook his head and said, “Apprentice sister, if they had spiritual roots, even if they were of inferior quality, I would teach them Daoism and bring them to the Cultivation World.
But since they don’t, letting them experience the Cultivation World too soon and developing certain fixations is not a good thing.
Compared to the competitive Cultivation World where everyone is vying for resources, I’d rather Yiran and Jing’er live a wealthy life without worries in the mortal world…
In our hometown, there was a rich tycoon who left his wealth to his children with the instruction: ‘You can do whatever you want, even indulge in food and pleasure, but don’t follow my path in business.’
He Yingyu immediately understood, “It’s because he knew his children weren’t good at business or investing.
Regardless of what else they do, even if they spend extravagantly, they can live a wealthy and worry-free life.
But if they attempted to emulate their father’s path without the necessary skills, they would quickly lose all their wealth…”
“Yes!” Chen Dengming nodded, “Cultivating is far more difficult and dangerous than doing business.
New novel chapt𝒆rs are published on ƒгeewebnovёl.com.
Failing in business at most leads to bankruptcy, but forcibly cultivating without the required talent…”
He didn’t finish his sentence as Xu Wei was already on his way with a fruit platter.
Further elaboration on this would hurt Xu Wei’s feelings.
Xu Wei had some talent and at least an inferior spiritual root, yet his outcome wasn’t good either.
Jiang Qiang who was listening at the side sighed deeply as he could relate.
He was of an optimistic nature and didn’t care much.
So what if his talent was lacking?
He had a great leader, he could just coast along.
He was still living comfortably, flying in the Spirit Boat, playing with the Spirit Gu, there was no shortage of Spirit Crystals, and he was qualified to drift comfortably.
Other Qi Cultivators, even some of the second generation Cultivators from small Cultivating Families might not be as carefree as him.
He Yingyu took a sip of her tea, “Since you, my apprentice brother, have plans, I will let you be.
But if they want to visit the Eastern Region when they grow up…”
Chen Dengming laughed, “When the time comes, I’ll arrange it.”
He then looked at Jiang Qiang, “Qiangzi, are you really planning to stay in Nanxun?”
On hearing this, Jiang Qiang immediately laughed, “Of course, Brother Chen, I’ve made my decision.
There’s nothing wrong with staying in Nanxun.”
