Family Cultivation: Evergreen of the Song Family

Chapter 324 Song Xianming’s worries
"Zhang Ye?" Everyone was a little confused.

Song Changsheng smiled slightly, and their reactions were as he expected. The name "Zhang Ye" is indeed a bit difficult to understand in the world of Daqi cultivation, because it comes from the world of Song Changsheng's previous life, and its meaning is "Zhang Guoyue, to connect the Western Regions."

Song Changsheng named the land at his feet like this, which means "the armpits of the Zhang clan, plotting to conquer the demonic realm". It was a clever move, but it represented his hopes and expectations for this land.

Zhangye County borders the territory of the Monster Clan, which is a major drawback.

But everything has two sides. It needs to be broken down to see that Lingzhou's geographical location has great limitations. Yuanzhou in the northwest and Qingzhou in the northeast are both the sphere of influence of the Golden Crow Sect.

To the west is the Huansha Sect, to the south is Luoxia City, and to the east is the Lieyang Sect. There is no weak persimmon. This is a natural chasm for the development of the Song family, which greatly limits the room for improvement of the Song family.

If the Song family wants to expand, they must use force from all sides, but the battle to destroy the sect is no small matter. Even facing the Lieyang Sect, which has the weakest overall strength, the ship will capsize in the gutter if you are not careful.

But Zhangye County is different. This is an arm of the Song family extending outward across the natural chasm in Bianzhou. It directly extends its hand into the Hundred Thousand Mountains. It can be attacked when advancing and defended when retreating.

Song Changsheng was sure that the coalition forces would never stop at Tuozhou. The Golden Crow Sect and the Tianmai Sect would not give in. After recuperating, the next expedition would begin immediately.

At that time, the Song family can use Zhangye County as a bridgehead to plot the demon territory west of the Canglan River. Zhangye is now a "county", and it may not be able to become a "state" in the future.

This is Song Changsheng's ambition. He wants to build a large territory for his family so that his descendants can enjoy happiness for generations to come and no longer have to worry about resources!

"Zhangye, that's not bad. It's settled then, Lu Tong, you will be the guardian envoy of Zhangye in the future, and you must take responsibility." Song Xianyun said to Song Lutong in a serious voice.

"Uncle Twenty-one, don't worry. I will definitely keep this, uh... Zhangye County, safe for the family. If there are any mistakes or omissions, my nephew will come to see you!" Song Lutong was full of confidence. said.

Seeing this, Song Changsheng gave him a vaccination in advance and said: "Uncle Tong, it's useless to ask for your head. What the family wants is Zhang Ye. Don't be careless. It's easy to lose, but it's difficult to get it back again."

"I am here, and Zhang Ye is here."

"I'll be waiting, Zhang Ye is right here!" Song Changan and Song Changxuan also stood up together and said in unison.

"Then I'll leave it to you all." Song Changsheng solemnly handed over to the three of them...

After the meeting, Song Xianming walked to Song Changsheng and said softly: "Come for a walk with me."

Song Changsheng was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and said, "Yes."

The two set off from the Five Elements Peak, heading west, and finally stopped at the bank of a large river that could not be seen at a glance.

"This is the Canglan River? It's really vast. No wonder it can stop the coalition forces." Song Xianming climbed up and looked into the distance, looking at the surging river and the flocks of wild geese and said with emotion.

"It's a pity that it's a dead river." Song Changsheng followed Song Xianming silently and said softly.

"Yes, the Land of Absolute Spirits has no aura and no value for development. Its only function is to become the dividing line between Zhang Ye and the Monster Clan."

Song Xianming murmured softly, then looked at Song Changsheng and said, "So you probably didn't choose this place just because of the third-order spiritual vein under the Five Elements Peak, right?"

"If it's just for resources, I have many places to choose from, but only here is the space for the family to show its strength." Song Changsheng put his hands behind his back, his eyes seemed to span the boundless river, and saw the vast land to the west of the river.

"Be born in sorrow and die in happiness. You did the right thing. I have always believed that you can bring the family to a new level.

However, when giving birth, you have to remember not to act too hastily. The family is not as strong as it appears on the outside, and there is a danger of overthrowing if you are not careful. "Song Xianming warned in a deep voice.

To say who among the Song family understands Song Changsheng best, Song Xianming must be the first choice, and even Xia Yunxue, his own mother, must be ranked in the back.

From the moment he saw the map Song Changsheng handed back to his family, he already understood what Song Changsheng was thinking, which made him feel a little worried.

Song Changsheng is young, has ideas, and is ambitious. This is a good thing in his opinion, and it is also the main reason why he chose to abdicate at his peak.

But precisely because of this, he felt a little uneasy. He was worried that Song Changsheng would take too big steps and lead the Song family into an abyss of eternal destruction.

The land of the demon clan is not so easy to occupy, otherwise the Daqi cultivation world would not wait until now to launch the expedition. He hoped that Song Changsheng would not be fooled by the immediate benefits.

From the meeting just now, he could see that the mentality of the family's senior leaders had changed.

Song Lutong had never liked general affairs, and he didn't like his family to arrange errands for him. However, this time he took the initiative to come to Zhangye.

why?
Because he saw resources, and there were more resources west of the river.

He has sharpened his sword and can't wait to open up more territories and obtain more resources.

This was not his idea alone, but the idea of ​​most of the family. The wealth of Zhangye County exceeded their expectations, and it also inspired greater greed in their hearts.

It is understandable that they have such thoughts, but Song Xianming hopes that Song Changsheng will not have such thoughts.

Because he is the leader of the Song family, he must keep a clear mind at all times.

Ambition is a savage beast that must be kept in a cage and cannot be allowed to act wantonly, otherwise it will only bring the Song family into a situation that is beyond redemption.

The Song family is far from being as powerful as it seems. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is at the bottom of the Seven Hopes. It cannot bear such great ambitions.

"Grandpa, don't worry. My grandson is not that ignorant. What the family needs now is precipitation, not expansion. I will not consider other things until Zhangye County is digested." Song Changsheng turned his head and said with a smile. .

He never thought about turning into a big fat man in one bite. What he did was just taking one step at a time and preparing for a rainy day.

"As long as you understand." Facing Song Changsheng's clear eyes, Song Xianming nodded happily. This heir was more outstanding than he imagined.

"What are your plans next?"

"Originally, my grandson planned to restart the exploration plan of Wutong Secret Realm, but this time Yuechan and I were lucky enough to kill a [Five Elements Spirit Beast] and got a Five Elements Demon Pill. I plan to go to Luoxia City to ask for an audience with the three city lords. Refining a [Five Spirit Pill].”

"[Five Spiritual Pills]?" Upon hearing this, Song Xianming's eyes flashed with light. He naturally knew the magical effects of this pill.

"Are you sure?"

Song Changsheng nodded lightly.

According to common sense, he should still have a long way to go before he can break through the Zi Mansion, but he couldn't resist the many opportunities he got during this period.

First, he peeked into the way of heaven and saw the word "Tao", and then he understood his own way. Then he accidentally opened the legacy of [Qingtian Sword Immortal], which made his understanding of his own "Tao" advance by leaps and bounds. Afterwards, after half a year of star energizing, the middle Dantian was opened in advance.

In Dingyuan City, he used the [Cold Flame of the Earth's Core] to construct the phantom of the Zifu Furnace in the Zhongdantian, converting the spiritual power in his body into mana.

With many opportunities, it took him less than three years to achieve something that others could not achieve in decades or even hundreds of years.

Now he only needs one auxiliary thing, and he can retreat and try to break through.

"Okay, you go ahead. We old guys will take care of the family. After getting the [Five Spiritual Pills], we can retreat in Luoxia City. It will be safer there." Song Xianming said happily.

These words revealed something unusual. Song Changsheng frowned slightly when he heard this and said, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"

"You haven't returned to the family during this time. I'm afraid you don't know yet. The current leader of Lieyang Sect, Zhang Hongguang, has not been seen for several years. Do you know what this means?" Song Xianming's eyes revealed worry.

Song Changsheng said with a slight hesitation: "Zhang Hongguang is a veteran foundation-building Dzogchen monk, and the next step is Zifu. Are you suspicious..."

"Yes, do you still remember the battle between the two sects? When the Lieyang Sect accepted the recruitment of the Golden Crow Sect, it is said that they made great achievements on the battlefield between the two sects.

Coupled with the various unusual actions of the Lieyang Sect over the years, I have reason to suspect that they may have obtained some treasure from the Golden Crow Sect to assist in their breakthrough.

That's why Lieyang Sect was so calm after He Tang's death, which can also explain why Zhang Hongguang didn't show up for so long. "

Song Changsheng's face darkened slightly. He knew that Song Xianming's speculation was highly likely.

"The current situation of the family is like the river in front of us. It seems calm on the surface, but there are countless undercurrents surging underneath.

After so many years, it is very likely that Zhang Hongguang has succeeded in breaking through, and the strength of Lieyang Sect has experienced a surge. The reason why they are not taking any action now is because they feel that they are not sure.

If the news of your seclusion and breakthrough into the Zi Mansion is leaked, they will jump over the wall in a hurry, and they will definitely invade on a large scale.

A lesson from the past, a guide for future generations, don’t forget what happened to me back then. "Song Xianming said in a deep voice.

Song Changsheng was shocked. Song Xianming was leaked by a family traitor when he broke through, which eventually led to his early release from seclusion and his origins were seriously injured.

Although there has been a major purge, Song Changsheng is not sure whether it has been cleaned up. From this point of view, breaking through in Luoxia City is indeed a relatively safe choice.

"My grandson understands." Song Changsheng nodded. This matter is not a child's play, and no matter how cautious you are, you can't be too cautious.

Seeing the solemn look on his face, Song Xianming reached out and patted his shoulder and said: "Don't be too worried. After all, these are just our guesses and may not happen.

What you need to do now is to adjust your mentality and practice with peace of mind. As long as you break through the Zi Mansion, the family will be able to truly rise and no longer be afraid of the Lieyang Sect! "

"Don't worry, my grandson will do his best!"

"Okay, it's getting late, let's go back." Song Xianming nodded, and the two of them returned hand in hand.

Three days later, everything in Zhangye County came to an end. Song Xianming and others returned to Cangmang Peak through the space teleportation array, while Song Changsheng, Zhuang Yuechan and others rushed to Luoxia City...

Among the three city lords of Luoxia City, the third city lord is the most mysterious. Many people don't even know her name, they only know that she is a third-level alchemy master.

Song Changsheng came here this time with the intention of asking to see the Lord of the Three Cities who had seen the dragon but not its tail.

Refining [Five Spiritual Pills] is no small matter, and ordinary third-level alchemists may not be able to do it. He can only place his hopes on this mysterious Third City Lord.

However, he had never interacted with the Lord of the Three Cities. He had only met him once many years ago. It seemed a bit too presumptuous to speak so rashly, which made him difficult.

However, the other party seems to be very familiar with Xiao Qingwan. Maybe he should go to improve his old man's face and ask her to step in on his behalf?
Thinking of this, he went to Zhuang Yuechan and said, "Yuechan, do you know where Senior Xiao is? I want to go and visit him."

"You want to see Master Xiao?"

Zhuang Yuechan hesitated when he heard this.

"Let me ask you first. Uncle Master may not be willing to see you."

"I see."

After a stick of incense waiting, Zhuang Yuechan brought good news to Song Changsheng: "Uncle Master is at Danxia Peak, and she agreed that I would take you to see her."

"Great, let's set off now." Song Changsheng was overjoyed and quickly took Zhuang Yuechan's little hand and rushed to Danxia Peak...

Xiao Qingwan still looked like she was keeping away from strangers. After Song Changsheng finished the ceremony, she said bluntly: "What do you want from me?"

Song Changsheng knew very well that this senior did not like to talk in circles, so he said clearly: "Junior wants to ask the three city lords to refine a [Five Spiritual Pill], but the teacher and Uncle Zhan are busy with important matters, so junior Dare to ask senior to introduce you."

"[Five Spiritual Pills]?" Xiao Qingwan's eyes flashed upon hearing this, and she stared at Song Changsheng for a while, then nodded and said: "Put the things down, I will hand them over to you, refine the [Five Spiritual Pills] The production process is extremely cumbersome and will take at least half a year. Are you willing to wait?”

"Junior is willing, thank you senior!" Song Changsheng was overjoyed and quickly handed the materials he had prepared to Xiao Qingwan. He did not expect it to go so smoothly.

"Well, you both can go down." Xiao Qingwan waved her sleeves to accept the materials, and then issued an eviction order.

After exiting Xiao Qingwan's bamboo building, Song Changsheng let out a sigh of relief. For some reason, he felt a lot of pressure every time he got along with this senior Xiao.

Zhuang Yuechan couldn't help but find it a little funny: "You were never like this when you met Master and Second Master Uncle. Is Master Xiao that scary?"

"I don't know either, maybe this is the repressive power that only belongs to the elders." Song Changsheng said with a bitter smile.

Zhuang Yuechan's eyes became a little sad when she heard this, and she couldn't help but change the topic: "Uncle Xiao said that it will take half a year to refine the [Five Spiritual Pills]. What are you going to do next?"

"First rearrange the space teleportation array at [Wangyue Pavilion], and then let's go shopping in the black market together. Speaking of which, I have never taken you to have a good shopping." Song Changsheng took Zhuang Yuechan's jade hand and said, He said somewhat apologetically.

"As long as you can always stay with me, I'll be satisfied." Zhuang Yuechan put her cheek against Song Changsheng's chest and said softly.

Song Changsheng felt warmth flowing through his heart. Just as he was about to speak, a stream of light pierced the sky and headed straight for the two of them...
