"I know Yuting won't object. What I'm worried about is that Ningxiang will object. This girl is quite stubborn. She has stayed with me longer than she has stayed with you. I know her very well. This girl is arrogant. , the sensitivity of her main spirit root reaches seventy-five, and she has reached the sixth level of Qi refining at the age of sixteen. This child Changsheng is nineteen years old this year, but he is only at the fifth level of Qi refining, so Yu Ting may not like him."
Zhao Yuhui spoke eloquently.
Zhao Ziheng suddenly understood, nodded and said: "Yes, Ningxiang is the most qualified child of our Zhao family. Changsheng has a good character, but his qualifications are indeed a little worse."
Zhao Yuhui shook her head and sighed: "Qualifications are not the important thing. Besides Ningxiang, are there any other outstanding disciples in our clan? When your fifth uncle and I die, who will protect the family? There are no foundation-building monks in charge. , the family was destroyed overnight. I plan to recruit a son-in-law for Ningxiang, so that she can take charge of the family in the future. Of course, if there is a better seedling than Ningxiang in the family, she can be married outside, but At present, it seems that there is no better seedling than her in the clan."
"No wonder you gave her more resources. It turns out you trained her as a foundation-building monk."
Zhao Yuhui waved her hand and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Go and call Zijun and the others to the meeting hall and discuss with them how to reply to Mingyuan."
"Mom, aren't you just trying to make peace between the two families? There's no need to call a meeting with other people for this small matter!"
"Eating people with a short tongue and being soft-handed. If you really have the skill of raising silkworms, won't we go with what the Wang family says? Call Zijun and the others, and let's discuss it carefully and strive for greater benefits, both public and private. distinct."
"Yes, mother."
Zhao Ziheng agreed, turned around and left.
…
In a huge lake, Wang Changsheng and three people were sitting by the lake fishing.
The lake is several acres in size, and there are a large number of first-level low-grade spiritual fish and white-scaled fish in the lake.
White-scaled fish is a common spiritual fish with delicious meat, low environmental requirements, and docile temperament. White-scaled fish can often be seen on the dining tables of cultivators.
The Zhao family raises a lot of white-scale fish, which can be sold when they grow to five pounds. These white-scale fish are the main source of income for the Zhao family.
"Cousin Changsheng. You just told your grandmother that you would go to the secular world to be a heavenly master. Is the secular world fun? I haven't been to the secular world yet!"
Zhao Ningxiang blinked and asked curiously.
Wang Changsheng shook his head and said: "There is nothing interesting in the world, the spiritual energy is weak, there is not even a place for spiritual veins, and the cultivation speed is extremely slow."
Zhao Ningxiang was a little disappointed and said: "That's it! I originally wanted to go to the secular world to play, but after hearing what you said, I don't want to go. But having said that, cousin Changsheng, your cultivation speed is too slow. You are only at the fifth level of Qi Refining. When I reach your age, I will probably be at the seventh level of Qi Refining."
Speaking of this, a proud look appeared on her face.
Zhao Ningxuan's face was stern and he reprimanded: "Ningxiang, why are you talking!"
"Cousin Changsheng, don't get me wrong, Ningxiang has no other meaning."
"It doesn't matter. Cousin Ningxiang is just like this. She will say whatever comes to her mind."
Wang Changsheng didn't take it to heart. When he was a child, he often followed his grandmother to visit Zhao's house. He and Zhao Ningxiang could be said to be childhood sweethearts.
Zhao Ningxiang has relatively good qualifications, and her mother is a child of the Lin family. She has been pampered and pampered since she was a child. She has developed a carefree character. She says whatever comes to her mind and does not consider other people's feelings. Of course, she does not mean any harm. , Wang Changsheng has become accustomed to it.
"Hehe, cousin Changsheng still understands me. By the way, cousin Changsheng, have you ever considered joining the Xiuxian sect? I heard from my mother that in a few years, the four major sects will open their doors. Recruiting disciples, The four major sects only open their gates once every twenty years, and given the conditions for accepting disciples, each monk only has one chance."
Zhao Ningxiang laughed and looked a little excited.
"Become a disciple of the Xiuxian Sect? I don't have this idea. My qualifications are not very good. Even if I am lucky enough to join the sect, I will still be an outer disciple. I heard that the life of the outer disciples is not easy. They are busy dealing with various chores every day. , there will be punishment if you can’t finish it, so I’d better stay at home!”
Wang Changsheng said nonchalantly.
Although his qualifications are average, if he can become a weapon refiner, his family will provide materials for him to refine weapons, and he can accumulate resources to buy spiritual objects to assist in foundation building. If he joins a Xiuxian sect, the Xiuxian sect may not provide materials for him to refine. device.
The most important thing is that the education he received since childhood is to be loyal to the family and contribute to the family. For him, the sect has no sense of belonging.
"That is, you have relatives and friends at home, you went to a cultivating sect, you are not familiar with the place, you are struggling, you are sick, and there is no one to take care of you."
Zhao Ningxuan was convinced.
"You can't say that. Everything has advantages and disadvantages. The cultivation sect is rich in resources and has excellent cultivation techniques. What's the point of staying in Ningzhou all your life? You can't survive the foundation building period. Only by standing on a higher place can you The further you look.”
Zhao Ningxiang said impassionedly, her words full of fighting spirit.
Wang Changsheng and Zhao Ningxuan looked at each other and saw shock on each other's faces.
They did not expect that Zhao Ningxiang could say such bold words.
"Everyone's pursuit is different! Cousin Ningxiang, does my aunt agree that you want to join the Xiuxian sect?"
"Grandma doesn't know yet, but I will tell her. If I can join the Xiuxian sect, it will be good for the development of the Zhao family. She will definitely agree. Do you really not consider joining the Xiuxian sect? If we join together, Joining a cultivating sect and taking care of each other is also good for our family."
Zhao Ningxiang persuaded enthusiastically.
Wang Changsheng was a little moved, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I will go back and ask my father. If he agrees, then I will give it a try."
Zhao Ningxuan shook his head and said: "Forget it! I heard that every time the four major sects open their gates, many people squeeze their heads to join the Immortal Cultivation Sect. I heard that every time, many monks die on the ring. I’d better stay at home! You can’t enter the Immortal Cultivation Sect just because you want to.”
Zhao Ningxiang rolled her eyes at Zhao Ningxuan and said angrily: "Brother, you really have no ambition. Cousin Changsheng, go back and talk to your cousin. Then we will go to apprentice together. When we become disciples of the Xiuxian Sect, brother, you Just cry!"
Wang Changsheng nodded and agreed, while Zhao Ningxuan smiled bitterly.
"Oops! The fish is hooked, the fish is hooked."
Zhao Ningxiang pulled the fishing rod hard, and a big fish about two feet long flew out of the lake. The big fish was white with white scales all over its surface, and it had a fishhook in its mouth.
With a face full of joy, Zhao Ningxiang released the fishhook and put the white-scaled fish into the barrel.
An hour later, Wang Changsheng happily returned to his residence carrying five white-scaled fish.
