The Longevity Family: Starting from the Branches and Leaves

Chapter 614 Apprenticeship and Cooperation

Xiyong City, the main hall of the city lord’s mansion.

"Grandmaster, this is my daughter Xingtong. She has a talent for alchemy since she was young. I hope she can become your disciple!"

Sitting in the main seat, Chen Ling bowed to Patriarch Yu.

Today, Patriarch Yu came to Xiyong City to discuss how to fight against the Golden Eyed Spirit Clan. Chen Ling also took the opportunity to tell him about his daughter's apprenticeship.

Patriarch Yu was dressed in a white robe, with a leisurely temperament, making people feel like being bathed in spring breeze. Looking at the quiet Chen Xingtong, he nodded slightly, "The little girl's aura does have unique advantages in alchemy."

Hearing this, Chen Ling also breathed a sigh of relief.

I originally asked Yu Xue and learned that the ancestor no longer accepted disciples.

So he was determined to give it a try, and luckily, Old Ancestor Yu gave him this face and agreed.

"Grandmaster, my sister Xing Miao is also very talented in alchemy. Can she also become your disciple?"

Chen Xingtong bowed towards Patriarch Yu.

"Xing Miao!"

Hearing this, Chen Ling raised his eyebrows. Xing Miao is Wei Jing's daughter and a precious wood spirit. She has been trained by Wei Jing since she was a child.

He also has a good talent in alchemy.

But he is still a little young, only eleven years old this year.

And because Xingtong practiced with Wei Jing, he had a good relationship with Xingmiao since childhood.

He knew that Xing Miao's talent in alchemy was no worse than his own.

If I could become the disciple of this eighth-rank alchemist, my future achievements would surely be great.

"Is there anyone with better talent than you?"

When Patriarch Yu heard this, he looked surprised.

With her cultivation level, she could naturally see the spiritual attributes of Chen Xingtong.

But didn't you expect there is someone better than her?

The talents of these children in the Chen family are really strong.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but think of the baby in Yu Xue's belly.

After they are born, I wonder if the Yu family will have more talents or the Chen family will have more talents?
As for accepting disciples, she originally did not plan to accept any more disciples.

After all, with her current level of cultivation, if she wants to make further progress, she will have to practice in seclusion for a long period of time, and she will not have time to teach her disciples.

The main reason for accepting Chen Xingtong is the current relationship between the two families.

In the next battle, as long as the Golden Eyed Spirit Clan is driven out, the Chen family will undoubtedly be the number one family in Canglan Country.

In addition, Chen Xingtong's physique is indeed good, and he is a good candidate for alchemy.

She was a little surprised that there was someone with better talent than her at this time.

"Tong'er, Xingmiao is still young, there will be a chance in the future!"

Chen Ling looked at his daughter and smiled.

He also knew that it was already difficult for Patriarch Yu to accept Xingtong.

If I ask her to take in another one, it would be a bit too much.

Xingmiao is still young and hasn't established his foundation yet, so there is no rush for the time being.

After the Golden-Eyed Elves are driven away, I will have plenty of time to teach them.

Then he smiled at Grandmaster Yu and said, "Grandmaster, you don't have to worry about this matter. I am already very satisfied to be able to accept Tong'er!"

Patriarch Yu looked at Chen Xingtong with his beautiful eyes and saw that she looked calm. Although she didn't say much, there was a hint of pleading in her eyes.

I felt a little bit reluctant when I looked at her.

"Since I'm only taking one, there's no difference in taking one more!"

"In the future, the relationship with the Chen family will become even closer!"

Patriarch Yu said secretly in his heart.

He then looked at Chen Xingtong and said with a smile, "Go and call your sister over. If her talent is really as good as you say, then I will accept you both as my disciples."

Chen Xingtong smiled when she heard this, "Okay, Old Ancestor, I'll bring her here right away."

But he still whispered to Chen Ling, "Dad, I'll go get Xing Miao!"

"Go!"

Chen Ling smiled and nodded.

Naturally, he hoped that the old man would accept more.

"Okay, Dad! Ancestor! I'll go right away!"

Chen Xingtong immediately left the hall in high spirits.

"Thank you, ancestor!"

Chen Ling bowed to Patriarch Yu and expressed his gratitude.

"This girl has good talent, and I like her temperament. It seems like fate!"

Patriarch Yu smiled and said.

Then he changed the subject, "But now the key is to deal with the Golden Eyed Eldar."

“Don’t worry, ancestor. Almost all the noble families in Qianyuan Immortal City have been integrated into Xiyong City.”

"Now that Xiyong City has become much stronger, even if the eighth-level Golden Eyed Spirit Clan comes, we have the means to deal with it!"

Chen Ling said with confidence.

With the improvement of the Nine Heavens Divine Tree and the Nine Heavens Blessed Land, he also had enough confidence.

Not to mention killing the eighth-level golden-eyed elves, but it is enough to save Xiyong City.

With the experience he accumulated from several battles with the Golden-Eyed Elven Clan.

He still has a lot of confidence in his heart.

After all, the means to fight the enemy nowadays are not limited to relying on the Nine Heavens Divine Tree.

There are also the Five Elements Immortal Sword, the Dragon Patterned Robe, etc., which are all treasures that are enough to unleash the eighth-level combat power.

In addition, Fairy Lingxia and Fairy Ziling are able to use sword spirit attacks, which is enough to pose a threat to the eighth-level golden-eyed elves.

"We must not be careless this time. The two eighth-level golden-eyed spirits are both in the early eighth level, but their spiritual cultivation is unique and their power is hard to defend against."

"So we can't be careless at all."

"Once Xiyong City is breached, the entire Canglan Kingdom will be finished."

Patriarch Yu said with a serious expression.

She also knew in her heart that there were no Mahayana cultivators in Canglan Country, and it would be very difficult to stop the eighth-level golden-eyed spirit race.

After all, the Golden Eyed Elf Clan's bloodline is gifted by nature.

The spiritual power contained in the golden eyes is extremely astonishing. Even the human cultivators in the early stage of Mahayana may not be their opponents.

Therefore, neither she nor Old Ancestor Jin expected to defeat the opponent in this battle.

As long as we can hold it back, we'll keep it there.

The Golden Eyed Elf Clan will retreat sooner or later.

This is why they chose to concentrate all their resources in Xiyong City and devote all their efforts to building Xiyong City.

If the resources are dispersed, it will be difficult to rely on a single Earth-level Immortal City to stop the Golden-Eyed Elf Clan's army.

Chen Ling nodded.

At this time, Chen Xingtong walked in with a girl who was a head shorter than her, with bright eyes and white teeth, and was extremely smart.

"Xing Miao greets his father, and greets his ancestors!"

Although Chen Xingmiao was not very old, he was not afraid when he saw Old Ancestor Yu and bowed to the two of them.

"Miao'er, did your sister tell you about the matter?"

Chen Ling nodded and asked.

Since Chen Xingmiao was very young, Chen Ling ascended to the spiritual world.

Therefore, she didn't have much contact with Chen Ling. She was curious about this father, even more than friendly.

"Dad, my sister told me, and mom agrees!"

Chen Xingmiao replied obediently.

Chen Ling nodded, then looked at Old Ancestor Yu and said with a smile, "Old Ancestor, the little girl is a precious wood spirit body, and she also has a good talent in alchemy!"

"Okay, I will accept both of these girls from your Chen family!"

"During this period, I will first teach them some cultivation methods. After the Golden Eye Spirit Clan is completely driven away, they will follow me back to Lingyun Immortal City!"

Looking at Chen Xingmiao, Patriarch Yu also showed a look of satisfaction.

"Why don't you two pay your respects to the Master?"

Chen Ling smiled.

An eighth-rank alchemist is extremely rare in the entire spiritual world.

It was the two girls' luck that they could become disciples of Master Yu.

"Xingtong pays respect to Master!"

"Xing Miao greets Master!"

The two of them immediately bowed respectfully to Ancestor Yu.

"Okay, Xingtong, Xingmiao, from now on you will be my disciples, Yu Qingxuan. These two bottles of Taiyuan True Water are your greeting gifts."

Patriarch Yu waved his hand gently, asking them to stand up, then took out two jade bottles and handed them to the two of them respectively.

"Tai Yuan True Water!" Upon hearing this, Chen Ling's face showed joy. With his current knowledge, he naturally knew what this Tai Yuan True Water was.

Taiyuan True Water is a fourth-level treasure that has the function of cleansing the body and tempering the soul.

The effect is very good and it is rare in the market.

For the two of them, third-level treasures were not rare.

But with their level of cultivation, the Taiyuan True Water is just right for them.

"Thank you, Master!"

The two took the pill bottle and said with joy on their faces.

"In the next period of time, I will stay in Xiyong City and teach you the art of alchemy."

Patriarch Yu said the same thing.

The next focus is to deal with the Golden Eyed Elf Clan, and the main forces of Lingyun Fairy City also followed her to Xiyong City.

She will not leave Xiyong City in the short term.

"Yes, Master!"

They both bowed in response.

"Tong'er, Miao'er, go back first. Your father and I have something to discuss!"

Patriarch Yu spoke again.

The two of them said goodbye and left immediately.

Patriarch Yu continued to discuss with Chen Ling how to deal with the Golden Eyed Spirit Clan.

. . .

After discussing for a while, they heard someone coming to report that someone from Chutian Fairy City came to visit.

When he heard that it was Chutian Fairy City, Chen Ling remembered that he had once promised to go to Chutian Fairy City to propose marriage.

But during this period of time, there were so many things to do that he forgot about it.

"Grandmaster, please wait for a moment. I will go and greet the people from the Yan family!"

Chen Ling said to Patriarch Yu.

Judging from the intelligence recently obtained, facing the offensive of the Wushen Clan, Chutian Immortal City has now adopted a comprehensive contraction tactic in order to continuously consume the Wushen Clan.

Or maybe they hoped that the Wushen tribe would plunder some and then leave the Chutian Kingdom.

Then they arrived outside the City Lord's Mansion.

"Friend Yan Dao!"

Chen Ling was somewhat surprised to see Yan Xinya, who was dressed in white clothes as white as snow, had a beautiful face, a graceful figure, and an extraordinary temperament.

I didn't expect that Yan Xinya would come in person.

And standing next to her was another middle-aged man in a green robe, who looked to be in his forties or fifties, with an elegant face and a noble aura.

He is actually a great monk at the peak of Hedao.

"My two fellow Taoists, I am sorry for not coming to greet you in person!"

Chen Ling bowed to the two of them and said with a smile.

Although he is only at the level of Lianxu cultivation now, he is the lord of an earth-level immortal city. Naturally, he does not need to show the etiquette of a junior to the Hedao cultivators.

"My name is Yan Hongtian, the second elder of the Yan family, nice to meet City Lord Chen!"

The middle-aged man bowed to Chen Ling and showed a somewhat friendly look on his face.

When they arrived, the head of the family had repeatedly instructed that Yan Xinya should marry Chen Ling and that they should reach a cooperation agreement with Chen Ling.

"The arrival of Elder Yan and Fellow Daoist Yan is truly an honor to our humble home! Please come in!"

Chen Ling exchanged a few polite words.

Then he led the two into the hall.

For a moment, Chen Ling couldn't guess the purpose of the two people's visit.

According to the information received, the Wushen Clan is now conquering cities and territories in Chutian country with great momentum.

Chutian Fairy City can't stop it at all.

This situation now.

The Second Elder and Yan Xinya are both the pillars of the Yan family. Why would they come to Xiyong City at this time?
You won't come for help?
Chen Ling was guessing in his mind.

But the current situation in Xillion City is not optimistic either.

I don't have the energy to help them.

"This is the ancestor Yu from Lingyun Immortal City!"

"These two are the second elders of the Yan family, Yan Hongtian and Yan Xinya!"

Arriving in the hall, Chen Ling introduced both parties.

"Greetings to Grandmaster Yu!"

The two members of the Yan family bowed to Patriarch Yu in unison.

Ancestor Yu is an eighth-rank alchemist. With such a status, others are always respectful to her.

"You two fellow Taoists are so polite!"

Patriarch Yu also bowed in return.

The two exchanged a few pleasantries.

Afterwards, Yan Hongtian bowed to Chen Ling and said, "City Lord Chen, this time I came here mainly for your marriage with Xinya!"

"I think City Lord Chen is also aware of the current situation of Chutian Kingdom."

Yan Hongtian went straight to the point and told Chen Ling his purpose.

It means that the two families had already verbally agreed on the marriage.

Today both countries are under attack from foreign races.

So in order not to delay their marriage, he personally sent Yan Xinya over.

Let the two of them get married as soon as possible.

We must not delay any longer because of the foreign race.

Chen Ling was even more surprised to hear that they were here to get married.

Glancing over, he saw Yan Xinya pursing her red lips with a calm expression.

It seems that she also agrees with this.

I couldn't help but feel a headache.

Now, he understood the Yan family's intentions clearly.

It is obvious that they want to use me to deal with the Wushen clan.

That's why he was so proactive and even couldn't wait to send Yan Xinya over.

But the issue of the Golden Eyed Spirit Clan has not been resolved yet, how dare he provoke the Witch God Clan?
If we don't handle it properly, this powerful alien race will be difficult to stop if it attacks Xillong City at the same time.

In this situation, how could they have the strength to worry about Chutian Immortal City?

Marrying Yan Xinya at this moment would obviously do more harm than good.

Chen Ling knew that the primary issue facing Xiyong City now was to resolve the issue of the Golden Eyed Elf Clan.

Of course, if he has the spare energy, he naturally wouldn't mind helping Chutian Immortal City.

But the current situation does not allow it.

But the Yan family is now open about its cards!

At this time, he asked the second elder of the family to send Yan Xinya over.

Making it hard for him to refuse.

Chen Ling was a little embarrassed for a moment.

Hearing Chen Ling's hesitation, Yan Hongtian showed a decisive look.

He took a sip of tea and said in a deep voice, "Before City Lord Chen came, the ancestor had already told me that we could form an alliance, just like you and Qianyuan Immortal City and Lingyun Immortal City."

"When one family is in danger, the other family will send troops to help."

"Now, both our families are facing strong pressure from foreign races. If we unite, our strength will double."

"Whether it's dealing with the Golden Eyed Spirit Tribe or the Witch God Tribe, it will be much easier!"

"The Golden Eye Spirit Clan and the Wushen Clan are both Nine Spirit Clans. There is no way they will cooperate."

When Chen Ling heard this, he was quite interested.

After all, in this kind of alliance, both parties are of equal status.

And just as he said, Chutian Immortal City can also help him deal with the Golden Eyed Spirit Clan.

Besides, he also married Yan Xinya, which was really not a loss at all.

As for the next cooperation, it will be like what we did with Qianyuan Immortal City and we will establish a space teleportation array as soon as possible.

At that time, the Golden Eyed Spirits will attack.

As long as the Mahayana ancestor of Chutian Immortal City comes to lend a hand, it will be enough to deal with the Golden Eyed Spirit Clan.
