Longevity starts with dual cultivation

Chapter 250 Shangguan Qingying: What if I also have a chance to become a god?

In the inner boudoir, after Zhao Wanyi and her sister helped Ling Changqing get up, they began to wash and dress themselves.

"...I feel that it's not just our luck and fortune that has increased, even our cultivation has increased a lot. Is this all thanks to you, my husband?"

Zhao Wanyi spoke softly, her beautiful eyes sparkling with tenderness and affection that could not be dissolved.

In the past, they had no way of knowing whether the various legends about the Son of Destiny were true or not, but after experiencing them with their own eyes today, they found that they were true and even more miraculous.

"Just keep it to yourself, and remember not to mention it to outsiders."

As Ling Changqing spoke gently, the light and shadow on his face changed, and he once again returned to the appearance of a beautiful young man in black with cold eyes, becoming the Ling Changxing in the eyes of outsiders.

Zhao Wanqing was sitting on the jade embroidered couch at this time, arranging the knots and ties of her bright red transparent bellyband. Her soft and delicate skin was dazzlingly white. Upon hearing this, she asked weakly:
"Husband, can't you even tell your mother?"

Ling Changqing said: "It is better not to say anything for now, wait until the future..."

"You can only tell her after she becomes your Taoist partner in the future, right?"

Zhao Wanyi tilted her head in front of the dressing table and said coquettishly.

Ling Changqing's face changed slightly, and he quickly denied it: "Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that!"

"That's weird!"

Zhao Wanyi, with a blushing face, rolled her eyes at him, said nothing more, and opened the jewelry box to start choosing.

As newlyweds, the two sisters were still dressed in intricate and exquisite fiery red palace dresses, with their hair tied up high, and wearing gorgeous emerald phoenix crowns, and gold hairpins with tassels that sparkled under the pearly light.

The three of them packed their clothes, got dressed, and went out hand in hand to the inner study to meet Shangguan Qingying.

The female head of the household was handling official business at the moment. When she saw the three people coming in, she calmly sent away the maids and servants around her.

"As expected, your luck has increased significantly. I think it won't be long before you can try to reach the Yuanying Zhenjun realm, right?"

Shangguan Qingying looked at the two sisters and said with satisfaction.

From this, it can be seen that insisting on letting the two sisters choose Ling Changqing was indeed an extremely correct decision.

“Well, this is totally possible.”

Zhao Wanyi said softly. She had not been sure before, but after practicing with Ling Changqing, she felt much more confident.

However, the family now only has one resource for forming a baby, and we have to find a way to prepare another one for my younger sister Zhao Wanqing.

Shangguan Qingying breathed a sigh of relief and said to Ling Changqing gently, "Then you two can continue to practice. How about letting Wanyi reach the Yuanying Zhenjun realm in a month?"

As long as Zhao Wanyi succeeds, the Zhao family will have one more Yuanying Zhenjun, and the past difficulties will no longer exist.

The Qin family and potential hostile forces in the surrounding areas will think twice before facing the Zhao family in the future.

"I was planning to go to the Qin family and teach them a lesson first."

Ling Changqing pondered and said that if a group of Jindan and foundation-building cultivators from the Qin family could be killed, it would certainly be beneficial to the Zhao family rather than harmful.

However, Shangguan Qingying's point of view also makes sense. As long as the Zhao family has one more Yuanying Zhenjun, they can establish a strategic advantage over the Qin family as soon as possible.

At that time, no matter how unwilling the Qin family is, they can only choose to keep a low profile and never dare to provoke the Zhao family again.

"There's no rush. Let's wait until Zhao Wanyi breaks through before we go. That way we'll have a better chance of success."

Shangguan Qingying said.

"Okay, it's settled then!"

Ling Changqing no longer insisted.

Anyway, he still has three months here, which is more than enough to help Zhao Wanyi break through and consolidate the Nascent Soul True Lord realm.

So for the next month, Ling Changqing basically stayed at home and accompanied the two sisters in practicing day and night.

A month later, Zhao Wanyi entered the training room and began to retreat. Ling Changqing and Zhao Wanqing were outside to protect her, and Shangguan Qingying was watching secretly.

However, to be on the safe side, the matter was kept very low-key and secret. Not only the senior elders, but even the sisters’ trusted maids were unaware of the news.

When a huge vortex of spiritual energy quietly appeared above the cave temple and the strange phenomenon of heaven and earth was witnessed by countless cultivators, some guys finally woke up from their dreams.

But now, Shangguan Qingying has ordered the entire family to enter the highest state of alert, and the family headquarters is heavily guarded. It is too late for them to do anything.

Qin family, the family headquarters.

In the meeting hall, Qin Zhongqi was discussing matters with a group of elders. The sudden message made the head of the family look more serious.

"…Master, something terrible has happened!"

A vague figure quietly emerged from the communication jade talisman, and said in a low voice:

"The news I just received is that Miss Zhao Wanyi of the Zhao family is currently in seclusion, striving to reach the Yuanying Zhenjun realm..."

"What did you say?"

The expression on Qin Zhongqi's face froze instantly, and he asked again in disbelief.

After receiving a positive answer, the faces of the patriarch and the elders beside him became as ugly as they could be.

The reason why Wu Yang Zhenjun was asked to assassinate Zhao Wanyi and her sister last time was because they were young and had already reached the peak of the Golden Core stage. They were the most promising seeds for the Zhao family to achieve the Nascent Soul Zhenjun.

As long as they could be killed, most of the Zhao family's hopes for the future would be cut off.

Now that the assassination attempt has failed, Zhao Wanyi has begun to break through. This is absolutely disastrous news for the Qin family.

"Can't we find a way to stop it?"

Qin Zhongqi questioned with a grim face.

The secret agent on the other side shook his head and said helplessly: "This happened suddenly, and we didn't get any information in advance. Now no matter what we want to do, it's too late!"

What's more, the two Yuanying Zhenjun of the Zhao family are in a state of high alert. Unless the Qin family immediately declares war and uses all its elite forces to attack the Zhao family's territory, it is impossible to distract them.

“You have to do it!”

Qin Zhongqi suddenly became furious, veins popping out on his forehead, and he gnashed his teeth and yelled, "If you don't contribute at this critical moment, what is the family supporting you for?"

The secret agent was silent for a few breaths, and said, "The Nascent Soul Tribulation is very serious. Only one in ten people can survive it. Maybe that young lady will not succeed at all?"

"you sure?!"

Qin Zhongqi's expression eased slightly. It is common sense that it is difficult for a Yuanying Zhenjun to overcome his calamity.

Moreover, the Zhao Wanyi sisters are too young. They probably do not have enough accumulation and their foundation is not solid. It is very likely that they will fail in overcoming the tribulation.

The secret agent whispered, "I can't guarantee anything like this. I can only continue to monitor closely."

Qin Zhongqi snorted coldly: "Alright, then you guys just keep a close eye on it and report immediately if anything happens!"

After interrupting the communication, the head of the family looked around and said coldly: "We must not let that girl succeed in overcoming the tribulation, otherwise the family will face too much pressure in the future!"

The elders looked at each other, and Qin Wuyan hesitated and said, "Master, even if we declare war immediately, it will take at least half a month to break through the Zhao family's protective formation. By then, the dust has long settled."

Under the current circumstances, unless we immediately break through the Zhao family's defensive formation and kill Zhao Wanyi, all other means will be useless.

"So... we can only hope that the girl won't succeed, right?"

Qin Zhongqi sighed, and a feeling of powerlessness suddenly emerged in his heart.

I have taken over the position of head of the family for decades and have always been working diligently and wholeheartedly, hoping that the family can prosper in my hands and defeat the Zhao family.

But now the situation is like this, the Zhao family is showing signs of turning the tide and reviving. How can he tolerate this?
……

However, the facts did not change according to Qin Zhongqi's wishes.

A few days later, with auspicious clouds and purple air lingering, brilliant and magnificent rays of light illuminated the sky, and invisible waves of Taoism spread everywhere, indicating that Zhao Wanyi had successfully achieved the Tao fruit of Yuanying Zhenjun.

"Sure enough, this guy is really amazing..."

Shangguan Qingying breathed a sigh of relief, and the heart that had been hanging in the air for many days was finally at ease.

With the successful example of Zhao Wanyi, I think it would be the same for Zhao Wanqing, as long as we can gather all the resources for her to have a baby.

At that time, the Zhao family would already have four Yuanying Zhenjuns in charge, plus Ling Changqing who would definitely achieve Yuanying Zhenjun in the future, that would make five?

Moreover, with Ling Changqing's extraordinary luck, if I also... is it possible for me to reach the Divine Transformation Realm in the future?

Thinking of this, Shangguan Qingying couldn't help but blush, feeling ashamed yet a little hesitant.

After all, I am not the biological mother of Zhao Wanyi and her sister, and I have never had a Taoist partner in my life. Now that I choose him, it seems that it is not impossible to consider...

Shangguan Qingying told herself very confidently that this was for her own great cause, not because she coveted Ling Changqing's body.

"Husband, my sister succeeded, so I can do it in the future, right?"

Zhao Wanqing took Ling Changqing's arm and said expectantly.

"of course."

Ling Changqing nodded. As long as the female cultivator was favored by him, there had never been an example of failure in breaking through.

After two months, Zhao Wanyi, whose realm was stable, came out smoothly.

The Zhao family's top brass not only announced the event to the outside world, they also held a grand celebration, and all the surrounding forces, big and small, received invitations.

This move also publicly demonstrated that the Zhao family had completely recovered from the previous setbacks, regained its strength, and re-established its strategic advantage over its old rival, the Qin family.

Therefore, these forces also sent representatives to attend the celebration out of respect, bringing generous gifts.

After the celebration, Shangguan Qingying counted all the gifts and found that their added value was enough to make up most of the resources for forming a baby.

"Well, I still have some private savings, why not take them all out and give them to Miss Wanqing first!"

Shangguan Qingying smiled and said that Zhao Wanqing had accumulated enough anyway, so in order to avoid any more trouble, it would be right to get promoted as soon as possible.

"Well, the daughter is entirely up to her mother!"

Zhao Wanqing couldn't help but said happily.

Zhao Wanyi smiled softly and covered her mouth with her hands, wrapping her arms around Ling Changqing's waist. She had thought her sister would have to wait a while, so it was naturally a good thing that she could get what she wanted as soon as possible.

Therefore, Shangguan Qingying spent almost two months to gather all the resources for Zhao Wanqing to form a baby.

Orders are mainly placed from the three major super chambers of commerce, which requires a certain amount of time to wait, and this is when they no longer make things difficult for the Zhao family.

For those Jindan Zhenren with ordinary backgrounds, they would face even greater obstacles when they wanted to purchase resources for forming infants. There were a lot of restrictive clauses, and they also had to be careful about the spying of certain robbery gangs.

Ling Changqing took advantage of these two months to go back to the Ling family in Changqingzhou to accompany the girls. He did not return to the Zhao family until Shangguan Qingying sent him a message again.

During this period, Qin Mengxuan also sent a message to Ling Changqing, stating her plan to arrange for her four direct disciples to come and serve him, but he politely declined.

"Wait until I become a Yuanying Zhenjun before letting them come over?"

These are Ling Changqing’s original words.

Qin Mengxuan alone is already enough of a headache for Ling Changqing, and if there are four more Nascent Soul True Lords, and they follow him around day and night, one can imagine the pressure Ling Changqing would be under.

Moreover, with them around, Ling Qiyue and the other girls won't have an easy time either, so it's better to maintain the status quo.

Qin Mengxuan's persuasion was futile and she had no choice but to obey this little man.

Another month passed, and Zhao Wanqing, who was in seclusion, also succeeded in breaking through and successfully entered the Nascent Soul True Lord realm.

At this point, the Zhao family suddenly became a large family with four Yuanying Zhenjuns in charge, surpassing all the surrounding forces, big and small.

Even if Zhao Qinghong dies in the future, the Zhao family will still have three Yuanying True Lords, and can still maintain a strategic advantage over the Qin family.

After hearing the news, Qin Zhongqi was furious and smashed almost everything in his study. Several of his most favored concubines were beaten half to death by him.

However, no matter how angry they were, they had to find a way to resolve the dilemma the Qin family was facing, otherwise... were they just going to watch the family business perish?

Although everyone knows how the Qin family's foundation was obtained, this is not a reason for Qin Zhongqi to sit back and wait for death.

Qin Zhongqi calmed down and called a meeting of senior elders to discuss the matter. They stayed up all night for several days and finally decided to send an envoy with generous gifts to visit the Zhao family in order to negotiate peace.

At this time, Ling Changqing was hiding in the inner room, soaking in the hot spring, enjoying fine wine, delicious food and beautiful women, and living a very comfortable life.

Hearing the maid coming to report that the master of the house had summoned her, Zhao Wanyi, who was feeding Ling Changqing snow seeds, turned her head and said with a little displeasure:

"What are those disgusting guys from the Qin family trying to do? They still want to negotiate with us? Are they worthy?"

Ling Changqing smiled and said, "No matter if it works or not, they will always try. What if it succeeds?"

Zhao Wanqing, who was massaging his legs, lowered her head and blushed as she said in a moment of leisure:
"Then let's go over and take a look, so as not to keep mother waiting for too long!"

"Well, let's go together!"

Ling Changqing said this as he stood up from the hot spring pool.

When the three of them were dressed and arrived at the family meeting hall, they found that the Qin family's envoy had already arrived a moment ago and was having a war of words with a group of elders.

After listening for a while, Ling Changqing realized that the Qin family's attitude was still arrogant. Even in this extremely unfavorable situation for them, they were unwilling to make any substantial concessions.

Their core demand is that the Zhao family and the Qin family sign a peace treaty from now on, with a term of at least a hundred years, and neither side will have any more hostile or provocative behavior.

In exchange, they only agreed to hand over the traitor Zhao Hua, give up a territory equivalent to that of a Jindan force, and pay a symbolic amount of resources, in an attempt to put aside their previous grudges.

"...Your bastard family head is just wishful thinking!"

Shangguan Qingying on the high platform sneered slightly.
