I'm determined to become an immortal!

After the transaction was completed, He Sheng, carrying the 54,000 low-grade spirit stones he had obtained from Liu Xuanyi, quietly merged into the crowd.

They quickly changed their appearance again, then left the city through the west gate and headed towards Nanze Lake.

After entering Nanze Lake, he used the Weilan Water Escape technique to travel upstream into the Hunlong River, eventually returning to the fork in the river before turning south and entering a tributary flowing towards Tiandu Mountain.

He Sheng went in a huge circle, using water escape techniques to run wildly, still not believing that anyone was following him.

And so, following the tributary into Tiandu Mountain, as they drew ever closer to the Wanshou Pool, He Sheng spotted another figure by the pool.

Who is it this time?

He Sheng carefully sensed the surroundings with his divine sense and saw an old man with white hair and beard standing by the pool. He did have some recollection of this man.

"He seems to be an elder of the He family. I saw him in the main hall of the main peak that day."

He Sheng searched Piao Ge's memory and finally matched the name to He Weixiong, a clan elder from the eldest branch of the family. He was usually taciturn but had a high reputation in the clan.

"Could this person have come here seeking help?"

"Could it be that after I intimidated Li Xiuning last time, the Sheng family still can't hold back and wants to attack Changyang Mountain?"

This trip to Yuanxia Immortal City changed He Sheng's opinion of the He family once again.

If the previous intimidation of Li Xiuning was merely due to various reasons, it was a passive act of not wanting the He family to perish.

Now that he knows the value of a fourth-grade cultivation technique, he is very clear that the He family must not be destroyed at this moment!

After all, if the He family is destroyed so quickly, where will Ye Shao Chen deliver the cultivation technique?

"If the He family were to be wiped out at this critical juncture, Ye Shao Chen would probably be the happiest. Not only would it ensure his dream girl's unwavering devotion, but it would also save him the trouble of acquiring a fourth-grade cultivation technique."

How could He Sheng possibly do something that would delight Ye Shao Chen like this?!

As they approached the Longevity Pool, He Sheng leaped out of the water. Before He Weixiong could react, he let out a clear whistle, using the Soul Imprint Technique to briefly confuse He Weixiong's senses.

The old man felt a blur before his eyes, as if his consciousness had been clouded for a moment. When he came to his senses, the water surface was already empty.

He Sheng rushed into the Longevity Pool and dived all the way to the bottom of the water, where he saw that the newly built gate of the Water Palace was tightly closed.

He Sheng nodded in satisfaction, took out the array plate and activated the protective array of the Water Mansion. Immediately, the gate opened, and the Green Serpent was already waiting behind the gate.

"Welcome back to the Immortal Master's abode."

He Sheng nodded and casually asked:

"Where's your sister?"

In his memory, as long as he was not around, the Green Snake and the White Snake were inseparable. Why didn't he see the White Snake come with him?

Unexpectedly, upon hearing He Sheng's words, the Green Snake's expression became somewhat strange. After hesitating for a moment, she said:

"Immortal Master, please inform me that my sister is helping to persuade the Precious Light Python to comply with your conditions as soon as possible so that it can return to the mountains."

"Yeah?"

Looking at the green snake, He Sheng knew that something was probably going on.

However, the Giant Python was locked in a water cage by him with the Starlight Water Wall Array. If he hadn't used the array plate to release its restraints, a mere first-tier snake wouldn't have been able to cause any trouble.

He Sheng didn't have time to care what the little white snake was thinking, and only said:

"A man has come to the pool. He is an elder of the He family. I am not at liberty to see him. Go and ask him what he wants."

Remember, whatever you do, do not reveal that Senior Xuan Gui is no longer here.

After you have ascertained the purpose of your visit, return and report back.

The green snake nodded and headed out of the water mansion.

A moment later, the green snake returned and found He Sheng, who was recuperating, in the back hall.

After He Sheng woke up, the Green Snake said:

"Reporting to the Immortal Master, it is indeed an elder of the He family who has come, named He Weixiong. He has come to ask for help."

It really was a call for help!

"Did other Foundation Establishment families attack Changyang Mountain?"

Green Snake shook his head, then gave He Sheng a reason for asking for help that left him speechless.

It turns out that since Changyang Mountain repelled the Black Mountain gang's attack, no one has come to attack for the past few months. However, the He family has not been at peace. Instead, they have fallen into fierce internal strife.

The cause of the matter was quite simple: rumors were circulating that the clan leader had fallen and had yet to reappear.

The clan elder brother, He Yiyang, absconded with the money;

The second branch of the family fell to rock bottom overnight, and the clan elder, who had been suppressed by Piao Ge for more than ten years, gradually regained control of the clan.

The elder clan leader had been suppressed by Piao Ge for over a decade, so he must have harbored resentment. However, he still had a sense of proportion and knew that with numerous external crises looming, the most important thing was to unite everyone.

But how do we achieve unity? It's simply a matter of redistributing benefits.

It is possible that the first two branches of the family should take the lion's share. The eldest branch of the family is from the first branch, and according to the rules, the first branch should take the lion's share now.

The clan elder wanted to give the third branch of the family a larger share in order to unite them.

In addition, they set up a place called Green Bamboo Academy, supposedly to enlighten and enlighten the children of the collateral branches of the He family, and to select those with spiritual roots as reserve talents.

His measures seem good, but the problem is that the second wife's fortunes have plummeted, and her share of the profits has been reduced by more than tenfold.

The second wife has been pampered for nearly twenty years, how could she possibly stand it?

However, the elders of the second branch were all shrewd and none of them were willing to step forward. In the end, they pushed each other around and put forward Liu Yunxi, the white moonlight that Piao Ge had snatched back, in the name of He Shengfan's mother. Liu Yunxi, as the widow of the clan leader, challenged the elders!

"God damn the widow!"

Upon hearing this, He Sheng laughed in anger.

"These people from the second wife's family are truly a cancer."

As far as he knew, Liu Yunxi came from the Liu family of Lianyue Lake, and the other party was also a Foundation Establishment family. Pushing out such a person to compete for power was tantamount to inviting a wolf into the house.

As expected, things unfolded much more smoothly than anticipated. After Liu Yunxi stepped forward, the Liu family quickly infiltrated the He family through her, causing the eldest patriarch and the eldest branch of the family to suffer repeated defeats.

"This clan elder He Weixian is really useless. The moment the second branch of the family put Liu Yunxi out, he should have been determined to eliminate the root of the problem. Instead, he has created this situation."

According to He Weixiong, over the past few months, Liu Yunxi has taken over most of the He family's businesses, and in many places, it is as if the Liu family is managing them on behalf of the family.

Seeing that the situation was dire, He Weixian sent him to Wanshoutan for help.

He Sheng scratched his head, quickly made up his mind, and said to the green snake:

"Go out later and, in the tone of Senior Xuan Gui, convey this message to He Weixiong:"

Say that you already know about this matter.

"The He family is currently in a predicament. He Weixian is incompetent, and the second branch is insidious. In the future, they will need to control the profits of the clan..." He Sheng hesitated for a moment before saying:

"Send 50% of the annual revenue to Wanshoutan Water Mansion, where I will manage it on your behalf."

He Sheng instructed the green snake to deliver the message in this manner.

He didn't plan to rush to help the He family solve these messy problems, since the Liu family had already intervened and had taken away most of the benefits.

In He Sheng's view, this actually alleviated the crisis of the He family's extermination.

"Let's drag this out for a year or two, then we can settle scores. It's time to teach the He family a lesson."

Once he made up his mind, He Sheng didn't think about anything else. He took out the fortune-telling talisman and began to study it.
