Building a long-lasting family lineage starting with genealogy

Chapter 65 Concerns (Seeking Further Reading)

Xu family.

Nanshan Courtyard.

"My husband, my brother wrote to us, asking us to take Zhao'er and Wen'er to the county town. What do you think?"

Yang Ronghua carried the foot basin to his feet and put it down, then looked up at him.

Xu Mingwei sat on the edge of the bed, put his feet up, and slowly lowered his brows, asking in confusion, "Go to the county town?"

Yang Ronghua stood up and said, "Firstly, my parents want to see Zhao'er and Wen'er. Secondly, my brother said that the clan elders want to test them again and then consider whether to teach Zhao'er the Yang family's martial arts based on the test results."

Xu Mingwei pondered for a moment, "Whether or not we obtain the Yang family's martial arts is secondary. Zhao'er and the others have never met their maternal grandfather since birth, so it is only natural for them to go and see him. However, as the head of the Xu family, I cannot simply walk away."

Upon hearing this, Yang Ronghua's eyes dimmed slightly.

Xu Mingwei knew in his heart that in the years since they got married, Yang Shichang had only come once, and it was definitely a lie to say that Yang Ronghua didn't miss her parents-in-law.

However, this emotion was well hidden.

He saw it all and felt the pain in his heart.

The room was completely silent.

All that could be heard was the sound of Xu Mingwei's feet moving together in the bronze basin, like the sound of shattering jade and leaping pearls.

The cold ripples in the basin broke and then reformed, reflecting the dim light of the dying candle.

Suddenly.

A determined look flashed in Xu Mingwei's eyes. "I'll talk to Father tomorrow and ask him to help look after things. It should be fine, but it will be a lot of trouble for Father."

"Thank you, my husband. Now that you've finished washing, I'll take it and throw it away."

Yang Ronghua was genuinely happy at that moment.

"It's a minor matter; it won't matter tomorrow."

Xu Mingwei pulled Yang Ronghua close, and amidst her gasp, she fell into his arms.

Her alabaster cheeks seemed to have been kissed by the rosy dawn, with two begonia-like blushes spreading from her cheekbones, making her skin look like fresh snow reflecting the morning sun.

Her eyes, however, remained evasive, causing the blush to spread down her ears, becoming even more vibrant than the candlelight.

"Husband."

Yang Ronghua's voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzz, just like when they first met, shy and charming.

"The candle is still burning."

A slight smile played on Xu Mingwei's lips. As his wide sleeves fluttered, a wisp of innate true energy, like a silver snake spitting its tongue, instantly severed the golden wick that was dancing on the candle.

The room's brilliance vanished instantly, leaving only the moonlight filtering through the carved lattice windows, casting half a layer of frost on the floor.

The canopy fell down.

"Brother, are you and your wife planning to go to the county town?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Mingyuan's eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled and said, "I also plan to make business arrangements in the county town. Since you are going, I might as well go with you."

"You're going too, to that house?"

"At most, we will be able to return in seven or eight days. Qingjiang County and the surrounding counties are now stable, so there won't be too many setbacks. Just let Father take care of things for a while."

As for miscellaneous tasks, there are Zhou Ming and others.

We can't expect everyone to be watching over everything.

"Fine, I can't argue with you, but are you going alone? Your sister-in-law and children will stay at home?" Xu Mingwei asked.

"Let's go up the mountain together to ask Father first. I'll ask him again when we get back, but I don't think Rushan will go."

Xu Mingyuan smiled and said, "She is not like my sister-in-law, but she has the ambition of a heroine. She is already a first-class martial artist. After obtaining the Qi Opening Pill, she can hardly care about Jing'er anymore and is focused on breaking through to the peak of the Acquired Realm."

"Sister-in-law, really," Xu Mingwei shook his head and chuckled. "Let's go up the mountain first."

Bihan Pool.

Xu Mingshu and Xu Mingxian were both cultivating nearby.

One was striving to reach the peak of the Acquired Realm, while the other was diligently cultivating the "Innate Five Elements Creation Technique." Xu Mingxian truly lived up to his destiny of possessing the talent to "swallow mountains and rivers." After reaching the Innate Realm, his ability to absorb spiritual energy from heaven and earth was already seventy to eighty percent faster than that of ordinary people.

This is just the beginning. As his cultivation deepens, his talent for Qi cultivation will gradually become apparent.

In addition, the daily Five Elements Returning to Origin medicinal diet allowed him to condense the Five Elements Qi at an exaggerated speed.

Xu Chuan had been watching all this time and estimated that it would take him about two or three years to reach the peak of the Innate Realm.

Moreover, he himself possesses all five elements and is a gifted individual with mixed spiritual roots.

Reaching the state of innate perfection allows one to purify impure spiritual roots into true spiritual roots.

"Big brother, second brother, what brings you here?" Xu Mingshu asked with a hint of surprise in her eyes when she saw the two of them.

One handles family affairs, and the other manages the family business; both are extremely busy.

"We need to see Father about something."

"Father is meditating in the bamboo house."

"come on."

Xu Chuan was sharp-eyed and quick-witted; he knew they were coming as soon as they arrived.

Xu Mingwei told Xu Chuan about his family's plan to go to the county town, including Xu Mingyuan's plan to use the Yang family's name to make business arrangements in the county town.

Xu Chuan pondered for a moment.

Xu Mingshu's eyes lit up. "Big brother, second brother, you're both going to the county town? I want to go too."

"What, are you starting to dislike your father?" Xu Chuan looked up at Xu Mingshu.

Xu Mingshu immediately walked to his side, hugged his arm and shook it, and said coquettishly, "Father, how could Xueji dislike you? Xueji just wants to see what the county city is like."

"We'll talk about it after you reach the Innate Realm."

Xu Mingyuan also said, "I've heard that ordinary families in the county town have Xiantian masters in charge, while some large families have at least seven or eight, and some even have Grandmasters."

"Even those at the peak of the Day after tomorrow realm are only fit to be guards in the county town."

“Families like Wu Fangwang’s would be considered second-rate even in the county town.”

"Second brother, don't scare me. If it's that bad, then our Xu family is just a mid-level family in the county town, right?" Xu Mingshu's eyes widened.

"Pretty much," Xu Mingyuan said with a smile. "That's why your second brother plans to go to the county town to make some arrangements for the Xu family's future entry into the county town."

"And my eldest brother wasn't going out to play either."

Zhao'er has pure Yang family blood, making him suitable for cultivating the Yang family's inherited martial arts. The old folks of the Yang family insisted on testing him again, and since your sister-in-law also misses her parents, the whole family went together.

"Xueji, stop fooling around. Stay home and cultivate properly," Xu Chuan said.

"Understood, Father."

Although Xu Mingshu can be temperamental, she is still obedient.

"You got what you deserved, didn't you?" Xu Mingxian added insult to injury.

"Smelly brother."

Unlike Xu Mingshu, Xu Mingxian is a born cultivator who can endure loneliness.

Then, Xu Chuan looked at Xu Mingwei and the other person and sighed, "Since you've made up your mind, then go. Be careful, the prefectural city is not the same as the county town; it's a place where hidden talents abound."

"Yes, Dad."

Having received permission, the Xu brothers, Mingwei and Mingyuan, were naturally delighted and immediately returned to the Xu family home to prepare for their departure.

"Father, Yunnu seems to have some concerns?"

Xu Chuan sighed slightly, "The county city is a place where martial arts and immortality coexist, and there are many powerful families. It is not so easy to break through."

　The flow has been reduced; it's gone from "increased volume package++" to "increased volume package+". I don't even know where to begin.

　　If fellow Daoists are willing to support me, I will continue to write with all my heart.
