After cultivating immortality, she devoted herself to becoming an ancestor

Chapter 113 Good, good!
As soon as he finished speaking, Situ Shiyuan also spoke up in the video: "Sui Chu said that she grew up in this kind of field."

Another female cultivator's voice came from off-screen: "Junior Sister, why did you make this special trip?"

Situ Shiyuan said, "For the sake of the truth, so that people won't say in the future how hard it was to raise Suichu."

She walked to the edge of the field, beckoned the Qi Refining cultivators working there to inquire about Sui Chu, and took out spirit stones on the spot, "I want to ask Shen Sui Ren, Lu Jiu Niang, and Shen Zhao about their previous living conditions."

"Say whatever you want, good or bad, and you'll get ten spirit stones."

Upon hearing this, the Qi Refining cultivators instantly shed their restraint in front of the Foundation Establishment cultivators, their eyes lighting up. One of the young men immediately asked, "Senior, are you a relative of Shen Sui?"
Where is she now? Has her cultivation improved?

"Yes, how did you figure that out?" Situ Shiyuan immediately gave him ten spirit stones.

Seeing that there were spirit stones here, the others were eager to try.

The boy immediately said loudly, "When you said her name, your smile was full of gentleness, unlike Senior Lu, who would call her 'little brat' when he got anxious."

You haven't told me how Shen Sui is doing now? Is she alright?

“She has now become an apprentice and is doing well with her family and friends.” Situ Shiyuan did not elaborate further.

The boy clenched his fist and nudged his friend beside him: "I knew it, Shen Sui must have left to find her relatives."

She didn't look like her parents at all. The two of them often secretly went to eat the spirit food, but bought ordinary rice for Shen Sui to eat instead.

The other person nodded repeatedly: "We've seen it several times. They don't even let her take a medicinal bath during her body-training sessions; they just force her to train."

After Shen Sui guided Qi into her body, he never bought her any pills to help her advance in cultivation. He told Shen Sui that her aptitude was too poor and that he was afraid the pills would block her meridians, making it even harder for her to cultivate.

Grandpa Hu, who used to live here, said that Shen Sui was definitely not his biological son.

Situ Shiyuan swiped his pen and gave the child another ten spirit stones.

Someone, eyeing the ten spirit stones, quickly said, "You can't say that. It's fine for people to eat some spirit food to replenish their strength after hunting demons, but Shen Sui didn't have any cultivation before, so he can't eat spirit food."

The body-refining methods are different, and you weren't watching them all day to see if they were using any medicine. Their strict teaching isn't a major problem either.

Situ Shiyuan still gave him ten spirit stones.

The remaining people, seeing that they indeed all possessed spirit stones, eagerly shared what they knew, both good and bad.

Furthermore, some people mentioned that Shen Zhao and his wife went demon hunting and earned a good income, so they didn't need to farm.

It is also said that when Shen Suiren was seven or eight years old, she was often left at home for one or two months to guard the spirit fields. There was no food, no spiritual power, and it was difficult to find work, so everyone hired her to catch insects and loosen the soil.

She would go to Elder Kang, who raised spirit beasts, and take on a task to feed spirit ducks. Then she would release the ducks into the fields to catch them for her, earning spirit rice from both ends to cook food.

It is clear that most people have reservations about how Shen Zhao and his wife raise their child, and look down on them for not being dedicated enough.

The first boy to speak even brought over an old monk from elsewhere, saying that this was Elder Kang.

Old Man Kang waved his hand and said, "I'm not after the ten spirit stones, I just want to say two things."

Firstly, five years ago, various sects came to Fuguang City to recruit disciples, which was a great thing, as they didn't need to spend spirit stones to undergo trials at each sect.

Old Hu and I had just told Shen Zhao to take the child to try his luck at the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect. Even with mixed spiritual roots, it was better than being a rogue cultivator.

But shortly after, the couple took Shen Sui on a demon-hunting expedition, and they didn't return until two days after the apprenticeship ceremony was over.

"Oh dear, I thought they had accidentally missed it."

Later, Jiu Niang also said that she shouldn't have left the city those days. "A middle-aged female cultivator said in surprise.

The old man chuckled twice: "The second thing, you probably don't know, is that the couple gave the original steward twenty spirit stones to send Shen Sui to the city lord's mansion to be a maid."

"Tell me, would you be willing to send your own children to be slaves?"

The Qi Refining cultivators shook their heads. Even if their cultivation level was low, they were still cultivators. Being a waiter was better than being a maid in the city lord's mansion.

*Snap*, Situ Shiyuan in the scene crushes the spirit stone.

A group of low-level Qi Refining cultivators immediately fell silent, except for Old Man Kang, who was not afraid, since his lifespan was almost over anyway: "It's good that Shen Sui left, otherwise if she had entered the former city lord's mansion and something happened, she would have been implicated and sent to work in the mines."

This child later did a lot of work for you without asking for more money. She wasn't really stupid; she was grateful that you had given her food to eat.

She's generous and not greedy; if she finds a treasure in the woods, she's willing to bring her friends along. Good fortune is on her side.

The old man left as soon as he finished speaking, and as expected, he didn't ask for any spirit stones.

But in the video, a figure quickly chased after him, gave him a bag of things, and the photo session ended.

"At the beginning of the year, it turns out that you had an even harder childhood than I, an orphan girl," Huang Banxia said, her voice not soft.

Shen Suiren smiled and said, "We are all doing very well now."

"You're too soft-hearted." Huang Banxia glanced at Shen Baiyu, who had been silent for a long time, her eyes filled with hostility.

Yun Chuan stepped aside to block her view and whispered to her not to provoke him.

Situ Shiyuan put away the image-recording jade and said calmly, "Shen Zhao, this is how you raised your children, this is your conscience."

Should we ask Shen Baiyu what she has eaten and used since she was a child, and how many people have protected her when she guided Qi into her body?

Have they ever lacked elixirs? Have they ever been young, going to work on an empty stomach to earn food?

After a pause, she turned to Master Shouzhuo and said, “At the beginning of the year, she has a father who cultivates immortality. If you, Master, do not intend to take her away, her relatives and friends in the mortal world will raise her up.”

"It was my fault." Before Shouzhuo Zhenren finished speaking, he had already flashed in front of Clan Chief Shen and slapped him across the face.

Chief Shen's face immediately bled, and he was knocked to the ground, unable to get up for a long time.

Startled, Shen Zhao thought that Master Shouzhuo would hit him, so he quickly looked to Shen Baiyu for help: "Jupiter, Baiyu!"

Yun Chuan blocked his junior sister again, his fist clenched under his sleeve, thinking to himself how could his junior sister have such parents.

But Master Shouzhuo didn't even look at Shen Zhao, and only looked at the clan leader Shen: "Shen Zai, why did you change them? What grudge do my disciples have against you?"
"You schemed and plotted to prevent his soul lamp from being rekindled."

Chief Shen shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, I had something to do on the way, and after sending a message to Lu Jiuniang to feed the child for a few days, Shen Zhao changed the child."

All children look alike; I hadn't seen them for days and hadn't noticed.

Lu Jiuniang could neither speak nor move, but her eyes were filled with anger.

Shen Zhao gave a self-deprecating laugh, but did not refute it.

So Shen Baiyu released Lu Jiuniang's pressure points: "You said you've already wronged Sui Chu, don't make me look down on you anymore."

Lu Jiuniang hesitated, but when she met Shen Suiren's knowing gaze, she gritted her teeth and said, "You were pampered by mortals back then."

I tried to feed you on the way, but you wouldn't drink my milk, so we had to find goat's milk for you to drink.

If it's too thick, it won't work; if it's too thin, it won't work; if it's too sweet, it won't drink it. The clan chief said he would go back and bring your wet nurse with him, but he's been gone for several days.

You've really worn me and Zhao Ge out, and even Sui Xing hasn't had a proper rest.

I complained at the time, "She's naturally spoiled. Apart from not having parents, she's luckier than Jupiter. How many people will serve her and how many good things will she be fed when she enters the Spirit Beast Valley?"

I have absolutely no intention of changing you.

After she finished speaking, she looked at Shen Zhao and said, "Brother Zhao didn't either, but when he met with the clan leader who came back that day, he actually said... that the clan leader hinted at sending Sui Xing into the Spirit Beast Valley."

I initially disagreed, but the closer I got to the world of cultivation, the more I saw the suffering of low-level cultivators, and I became completely bewitched.

Thinking that the clan leader's words made sense, even if the child grew up without spiritual roots, he would still have a good future because he was raised in the Taiyi Sect.

"Slander! I didn't say that!" Clan Chief Shen said sternly. "Shen Zhao, I even offered to mediate for you." Lu Jiuniang immediately said, "Brother Zhao, I don't want Suixing to hate us. You must have evidence."

"Take it out. This isn't Shen Zai's personal fiefdom anymore. There's no one like our ancestor who doesn't guard against him. We don't need to be afraid of him."

Shen Zhao remained silent.

"If they won't tell, why don't we just have Master Shouzhuo search their souls?" Cheng Zhishun complained in the space room.

Unexpectedly, the Little Dragon King shouted outside without missing a single word, and in a childish tone, said something that made people hate him, "Sui Chu, why don't I just slap them to death for you?"

The monks looked up to look for him, but couldn't find even a trace of him.

Shen Suiren decisively declined, "I know why he won't tell."

"Why?" At this moment, the Little Dragon King's innate straight man body possessed him.

Shen Suiren and his master exchanged a glance and said, "He's afraid that Chief Shen will kill them and his daughter."

"Ah, just a fifth-level human cultivator, what's there to be afraid of?" He wouldn't even be able to kill him with a single dragon claw.

"Because he has a Core Formation cultivator behind him, not the Shen family patriarch, right, Clan Chief Shen?" Shen Suiren slowly walked towards Clan Chief Shen.

She stared intently at Clan Chief Shen with a smile in her eyes, and continued walking until she was right in front of his toes. "Behind the Core Formation stage is the Nascent Soul stage."

Clan Chief Shen couldn't help but retreat further and further, but Shen Suiren showed no sign of stopping. He even pulled out a stack of account books from his storage ring and shook them, "Do you recognize these?"

“You? You…” His eyes were filled with surprise and fear.

The monks couldn't help but stare at the ledger, where the cover read "Accounts of Pit No. 2".

Shen Suiren stopped and turned to look at Shen Zhao, whose expression was inscrutable: "So that you may know that my master, Shi Yuan Zhenren, is a sword cultivator, and my grandmaster is Zhu Kuang Zhenjun."

The ledgers were found by a True Immortal I hired.

Today I've come to present my visiting card, and I've also invited a ninth-tier divine bird and the Dragon King to protect me.

"Haha, it's finally my turn to take the stage." Upon hearing the words "Guardian," the Little Dragon King roared and flew out of the spatial hut, circling above Shen Suiren's head in his true dragon form.

Before the cultivators could get enough of his true form, they heard a "screech" and a five-colored divine bird flew out from Shen Suiren's bracelet.

As the two divine beasts flew and roared, they immediately attracted all the beasts in the mountains and forests to join in, their cries and prostrations filling the air.

"She really does have a ninth-tier divine bird." In the Guiyuan Hall, the Nascent Soul cultivators couldn't help but stand up.

When they received the message from the Demon Court, they were still somewhat skeptical, but now they can confirm that it was brought out from the secret realm at the beginning of the year.

The True Lord of Sincerity spoke up: "Fu Jiang, has the Demon Court found out exactly how many divine beasts she brought out three years ago?"

Sect Master Fujiang sighed, "They say there's another Xuan Turtle, which has barely shown itself, along with a lion and a snake, both at the seventh rank."

Xi Yu Zhenjun also sighed, "She has inherited Shen Dingru's talent."

"Heh, they're not just acknowledging his father, they're also putting on a show of defiance." True Monarch Xiansi narrowed his eyes, puzzled.
"Does she need to go to such lengths to appease Shen Zai?"

"Xi Yu, quickly send a message to Zhu Kong, we'll invite the person in." Sect Master Fu Jiang had a premonition that Sui Chu would target Taiyi with his sword.

In the clouds, Zhu Kuang Zhenjun glanced at the communication jade but didn't reply with a single word.

Shen Suiren was trying to provoke Shen Zhao: "Tell me, is it faster for me to kill you in front of you, or for someone hiding behind you to do it secretly?"
"I won't kill Shen Baiyu, but how about crippling one of her arms? Or both?"

Shen Zhaozheng suspected she was lying to him, and Lu Jiuniang cried out in panic, "Ah, let go of my son! Brother Zhao!"

It turned out that Chongming stretched out his claws, grabbed Shen Baiyu, and pulled her right arm up, saying, "I will count to three, one."

"The beginning of the year!"

"The beginning of the year!"

Shouzhuo and Yunchuan flew up, but they couldn't get close to the divine bird at all. They wanted Shen Suiren to call a halt.

But she didn't move, and said, "Little Dragon King, whoever tries to save people will be struck down."

"Alright, alright, come quickly and save them!" The Little Dragon King flew to the left and right of the divine bird, flashing with lightning. A bolt of lightning struck down Shou Zhuo and Yun Chuan's flying swords, but they were not injured at all.

Everyone: The Dragon King is still blaming himself for showing mercy.

Sect Master Fujiang had no choice but to step forward, but just as he flew out of the mountain gate, True Monarch Zhukuang also appeared: "Fujiang, I invite you to have some tea."

In the blink of an eye, they abducted people to the clouds.

Chongming impatiently shook Shen Baiyu: "Two!"

"It hurts!" Shen Baiyu cooperated quite well.

Now, Shen Zhao realized that the divine bird was really capable of tearing people apart, and immediately said, "I'll talk, I'll talk, don't be afraid, Sui Xing."

Shen Zai resented Shen Dingru's full support for Shen Wan to become the clan leader.

Many years ago, when the Shen family's Qi Refining disciples were training in a group, Shen Dingru rescued a three-eyed green fox, which led him to a complete Kunyin mine.

Shen Zai wanted to mine the silver, but Shen Dingru forbade him to do so and reported it directly to the sect. Later, the sect rewarded Shen Dingru with 10% of the silver and handed the silver mine over to the Shen family to manage.

At that time, he resented Shen Dingru for receiving only 10% of the reward.

Kunyin (silver) is an indispensable spiritual material in many magical artifacts.

"Shen Zhao! You're spouting nonsense! It's all just speculation." How could the Shen clan chief admit it? But as soon as he finished shouting, an elder who had just reached the Core Formation stage flew over and immobilized him.

"Ancestor!" Shen Zhao seemed to have seen a savior and knelt down in front of the old man. "I know it's wrong to switch children, but I have no choice. If we don't switch, we will all die."

You have been in seclusion, and I have nowhere to turn for help!

Please let Shen Sui put down the Star of Fate. I am over fifty years old and have no hope of advancing further. This is my only remaining lifeblood.

Please, I will tell you everything I know.

The old man could tell that Shen Suiren wouldn't harm Bai Yu. He nodded to her as she bowed and reassured Shen Zhao, "I'll protect Suixing. Continue. The beginning of the year?"

"King Chongming." Shen Suiren only said this once, and Chongming threw Shen Baiyu aside, grabbed the disappointed little dragon king, and flew into the clouds.

Seeing his daughter protected by her senior brothers and sisters, Shen Zhao closed his eyes and said, "After Shen Zai established his foundation, he secured the task of supervising the mining at Kunyin Mine."

Years later, his elder brother Shen Wan discovered that there were problems with the accounts. Many people saw the two arguing, and not long after, his elder brother was attacked and killed.

I suspected Shen Zai was responsible, so I applied to be transferred away from the mine.

Later, Shen Dingru firmly opposed Shen Zai taking over as clan chief. He privately asked us to investigate the cause of Shen Wan's death. I don't know what he found out, but he got into trouble as soon as the beast tide started.

Soon after, the old clan chief passed away, and Shen Zai smoothly succeeded him.

When he went to pick up Shen Sui, he deliberately pointed at me, who had just had a child; he had no good intentions.

"Ancestor, he is the clan chief. My wife and daughters are in the clan. How dare I disobey?"

"Shen Zai, you killed my father!" Upon receiving the old man, Shen Tinglu finally pushed away Shen Shuo, who was trying to stop her, and drew her sword, rushing towards the Shen clan leader.

A dramatic ethical struggle, a power struggle within a noble family!

The cultivators consciously stepped back, making room for them to fight.

Unfortunately, the old man, Shen Duzhou, raised his hand to stop her: "Wait until you have finished asking about the matters at the beginning of the year."

Shen Suiren sighed inwardly. How could the Shen clan leader, who was only in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage at the time, possibly kill Shen Wan, who was about to form his core?
