Cultivating a family of immortals

By the lake, Li Nianzhi, a disciple of the Giant Spirit Sect, turned Xiang Cangyue's body over and searched carefully. Finally, he found the storage bag containing the [Primordial Soul-Condensing Mushroom].

Overjoyed, he carefully placed it in his arms before turning to look at Chu Lanwei, who was slumped on the ground.

The disciples of the Giant Spirit Sect all looked over, each with a different expression.

The two disciples of Chaoyang Sect who hadn't made a move had already fled, and their whereabouts were unknown.

Only the disciple who had attacked Cangyue with him looked solemnly at the disciples of the Giant Spirit Sect.

The battle is over. The Giant Spirit Sect has obtained this spiritual herb. If they are ruthless enough, killing these two would also be a good option.

Therefore, the disciple looked solemn and felt some regret, wondering why he hadn't escaped sooner.

He glanced down at Chu Lanwei, who was still lost in thought, and a glint of light flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, Chu Lanwei also raised her head, looked at everyone's expressions, and naturally knelt down on the ground.

"Fellow Daoists, you have all obtained the spiritual herbs, and I have just killed my enemy. We will now part ways, and we will absolutely not divulge any information about you!"

After pondering for a moment, Li Nianzhi exchanged glances with his fellow disciples and made up his mind.

He cupped his hands and said:

"Then let's part ways. We don't intend to stay here any longer. We're leaving now, and we're not afraid of you leaking our information."

After saying this, the group made hand seals, restored their true forms, found their direction, and flew away together.

Seeing this, Chu Lanwei finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It's good that the other party isn't that kind of vicious cultivator.

At this moment, the Chaoyang Sect disciple silently stepped forward, bowed to her, and said, "Sect Master's wife... what should we do now..."

Chu Lanwei looked at the man and said, "Xiang... Yi'an, right? I remember your name. From today onwards, you will stay by my side. After we return to the sect, we will find a way to slowly eliminate Xiang Cangyue's people..."

Upon hearing this, a ruthless glint flashed in Xiang Yi'an's eyes.

"This matter requires careful consideration, Madam. In my opinion, we should continue searching for the Soul-Gathering Mushroom here. If we are lucky enough to find it, it will be our key to seizing power from the Chaoyang Sect!"

Chu Lanwei nodded and said, "That's what I think too. Also, could you contact the two people who escaped earlier?"

"What you mean, Madam, is..."

"What we're doing must be kept secret and must not be revealed. As long as their disciples at the tenth level of Qi Refining are willing to lend me a hand, we can achieve great things!"

At this point, both of them fell silent for a long time.

After a long silence, Xiang Yi'an finally spoke:

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name: ①⓪①ⓚⓚⓢ.ⓒⓞⓜ]

"After this is accomplished, who will become the sect leader of the Chaoyang Sect..."

Chu Lanwei decisively waved her hand and said, "Let's make a ten-year agreement among the four of us. After ten years, whoever has the highest cultivation level will take the Soul-Gathering Mushroom and become the future Sect Master of the Chaoyang Sect. The others will become elders... As for me..."

She murmured softly, "If he doesn't mind, I will naturally remain the sect leader's wife."

Xiang Yi'an gazed at her plump, rounded waist and the patch of white on her chest, a surge of heat welled up in his heart, and then he nodded emphatically.

The two leaped deeper into the distance.

On the way, Xiang Yi'an sent a message to the two disciples who had escaped, but received a reply that they were acting alone. The two had no choice but to give up for the time being.

Along the way, the two crossed mountains and lakes, and countless forests, until they finally encountered people again when they reached a mountain peak.

It wasn't something I encountered.

It is awareness.

In the mountain just ahead, several cultivators were fighting fiercely. Their battle was so powerful that one could feel their strong sword intent and profound Taoist magic from afar.

"It's the Sword Void Sect and the Profound Origin Sect! They actually made a move!"

Xiang Yi'an murmured.

Just then, Chu Lanwei suddenly pulled him under a tree and hid him there.

"That's... Xu Chang Le from the Xu family... another person..."

...............

Lin Chenbi of the Haoran Sect Lin family had a gloomy face ever since he was insulted by Xuan Shuofeng in the city market that day, and he had been there ever since he entered the Ningyuan Zhize Land.

They did not split up, but walked together.

During this time, Lin Chenbi, having nothing better to do, would hurl insults at Lin Jinglan. The former sect prodigy was now like a beggar, and dared not utter a word in response to Lin Chenbi's humiliation.

The others did not offer a helping hand; they all looked at him with mockery, as if he had once been high and mighty, and how ridiculous they had been when they flattered and fawned over him. Now, as they retaliated by bullying him, the more they thought of those past scenes, the more satisfied they felt.

Lin Jinglan remained calm in the face of both honor and disgrace. No matter how much they scolded or beat him, he would not get angry and would even go along with them.

But the more this was the case, the more uneasy Lin Chenbi became.

He was waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to get rid of him naturally, preferably without him having to do it, so as not to attract criticism from the sect disciples.

One day, Lin Chenbi and the others came to a mountain to rest. As soon as they sat down, Lin Chenbi's pupils constricted, and he stared intently at a mountain spring, unable to look away.

Several disciples followed his gaze with curiosity. In the mountain spring, water gushed out continuously, splashing onto the mountain wall beside it. Below the mountain wall, a spiritual herb was splashed by the spring water and swayed its branches and leaves. What else could it be but the [Primordial Soul-Gathering Mushroom]?

With a whoosh, Lin Chenbi flashed over, grabbed the spirit herb in his hand, and put it into his storage bag.

The other disciples also rushed forward quickly, looking around to guard against any potential attacks.

After a moment, they realized that no one was around, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Several people gathered around, and Lin Chenbi was extremely excited. He took out the spiritual herb and examined it carefully.

A moment later, he couldn't suppress a smile, and then burst into laughter.

"Haha, may Heaven bless my Lin family's Haoran Sect! From now on, our sect's status is secure!"

Several disciples also bowed to him to offer their congratulations, and the scene was peaceful and harmonious.

Just then, Lin Chenbi suddenly remembered something, glanced around, and shouted:

"Where did Lin Jinglan go?!"

The disciples were stunned and turned to look, but Lin Jinglan was nowhere to be seen.

"Strange, where...did he go?"

The disciples then began to discuss the Dao.

Lin Chenbi's face was extremely gloomy as he pondered:

"This is bad. He must have realized that I intend to kill him. If he escapes today, and if he's lucky enough to find this spiritual herb, he can hide somewhere else, secretly advance to the Foundation Establishment Realm, and then return to the Haoran Sect... He has dual spiritual roots... Even if I advance to the Foundation Establishment Realm, I'm afraid I still won't be able to defeat him..."

"No, since he's already seen through my plan, what harm is there in me taking matters into my own hands?"

The thought had formed in his mind when he roared:

"Lin Jinglan has now harbored rebellious intentions towards the Haoran Sect. Today, seeing that we have obtained the [Primordial Soul-Condensing Herb], he is even more dissatisfied and must have gone to inform a familiar sect. We must immediately hunt him down and kill him without mercy!"
