He waved his hand at him and gestured for him to sit down to the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xuanxin, how are your injuries? When will you be confident in entering seclusion to attempt the Nascent Soul realm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Li Mufeng's concerned inquiry, Chen Xuanxin shook his head slightly with a helpless expression and replied: \"Reporting to Uncle-Master, although my injuries have improved after refining the elixir, it will still take time to slowly recuperate. Coupled with the need to polish my magic power, I am afraid it will take at least thirty or forty years before I have the confidence to begin attempting the Nascent Soul realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My lifespan is now approaching four hundred years. Even if my path is smooth in this life, I am afraid I will only have one or two opportunities to attempt the Nascent Soul realm. Achieving the Nascent Soul Great Dao will not be easy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uncle-Master, I actually heard what you and Uncle-Master Bai were saying just now while I was inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that my injuries will take several decades to recover, since you both intend to have Junior Brother Song integrate into the sect, why not give this Baby-Nurturing Pill to Junior Brother Song first? He could also attempt to form his Nascent Soul sooner.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing what Chen Xuanxin said, Li Mufeng was silent for a moment, and then a smile of gratification suddenly appeared on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your Senior Brother Yao also said these words to me when he was here years ago. Hearing you say this reminds me of him again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Li Mufeng mention the late Sect Master Yao Ganshu, Chen Xuanxin also sighed and said: \"Senior Brother Yao's natural talent was no worse than mine back then, yet he still found it difficult to make progress toward the Nascent Soul Great Dao. Although I am equally firm in my Dao heart and dedicated to the Dao, I still dare not say that I can do better than Senior Brother Yao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Junior Brother Song has been able to cultivate to the ninth level of Core Formation so quickly; his cultivation talent should not be below mine. If you are thinking of the sect, Uncle-Master, you should consider him first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mufeng nodded slightly, then explained calmly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xuanxin, I know what you mean. As a sect elder, I am naturally very gratified that you can disregard your own path and prioritize the sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, regarding the Baby-Nurturing Pill, Junior Sister Bai and I have already decided that it is to be reserved for you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over these years, you have rendered great service to the sect whenever it has faced difficulties. No matter how you look at it, the sect should prioritize supporting you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, if we were to casually break the rules of the sect, we would have no explanation for others. You do not need to decline this; just rest assured and prepare for the matter of forming your Nascent Soul.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood! Since Uncle-Master has already made a decision, this disciple dares not say more. I am just a little worried about Junior Brother Song.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xuanxin was just about to speak when Li Mufeng waved his hand to stop him, shaking his head at him again: \"Do not be anxious. The matter of Qingming has not yet been decided by the sect. When the time comes, I will discuss it slowly with Junior Sister Bai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Currently, among the few late-stage Core Formation cultivators in the sect, neither Wutong nor Fengping have much hope of forming a Nascent Soul. At present, only you and Qingming have the opportunity to attempt the Nascent Soul realm. You do not need to remind us of this; we can see it clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Qingming is willing to integrate into the sect, we will of course consider supporting him in forming his Nascent Soul in the future. But after all, his lifespan is more abundant than yours, and even if he does not get this Baby-Nurturing Pill, he will certainly wait for other spirit items for forming a Nascent Soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You do not need to worry about this! You have been in seclusion healing your wounds recently and are not aware of some matters in the sect. The reason Junior Sister Bai wants Qingming to integrate into the sect at this time is not because of your Nascent Soul formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is because in the Taiyue Lake to the south, it is very likely that a demonic beast has already crossed its lightning tribulation. I am afraid it will not be peaceful in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, the sect has to make some considerations in advance to take precautions.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A demonic beast has crossed its lightning tribulation? Is it true that there is another Nascent Soul Demon Emperor in Taiyue Lake?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like human cultivators, demonic beasts need to cross the heavenly lightning tribulation to advance to the Nascent Soul realm before they can transform into human form and achieve the Nascent Soul Great Dao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, there were only some Core Formation Demon Kings on the side of Taiyue Lake near the Song Guo, and their threat to the \"Xiaoyao Sect\" of the Song Guo was far less than that of the demon race in the Fuyun Mountains to the north.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If another demonic beast in \"Taiyue Lake\" near the Song Guo forms a Nascent Soul, it will inevitably break the existing balance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is not good news for the \"Xiaoyao Sect,\" which is currently developing and flourishing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing what Li Mufeng said, a look of gravity immediately appeared on Chen Xuanxin's face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Li Mufeng replied solemnly: \"It is certain that a demonic beast crossed the tribulation in the lake some time ago, but it is still uncertain whether this demon succeeded in crossing the tribulation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Junior Sister Bai and Fellow Daoist Zheng of the Star Sect have already gone to the lake to investigate. According to the situation at the scene, the probability of the other party successfully transforming is very high.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing, Li Mufeng paused and continued: \"Although we relied on Junior Sister Bai's successful Nascent Soul formation to repel the northern demon race and captured Nanyue Market from the Nine Origins Sect, allowing the sect's strength to improve significantly in a short time, the dangers around us have not been completely eliminated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once these enemies recover their strength and come back, they will certainly bite us. I am afraid the sect's future development will not be so smooth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once there is another enemy in the south, the northern demon race will certainly unite with it. Coupled with the Nine Origins Sect, that hungry wolf, eyeing us covetously from the side, the pressure we will face in the future will still be significant.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Li Mufeng's analysis, Chen Xuanxin's face became increasingly grave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After leaving Bai Yuxian's residence, Song Qingming went directly to the sect's \"Good Deeds Pavilion\" and exchanged the good deeds in his hand for some items he needed for his upcoming seclusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After doing all this, Song Qingming came to the residence of his nephew, Song Xinyu, to visit him, as he had already retired from the sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Xinyu's lifespan had already exceeded two hundred and twenty years, and normally, he had about twenty more years left before the limit for a Foundation Establishment cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, because he had attempted to form his Core twice, his meridians and internal organs were damaged, so Song Xinyu's lifespan was clearly not as long as other cultivators who passed away normally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After feeling his internal vitality beginning to decline a few years ago, Song Xinyu, feeling that he was no longer up to the task, directly applied to retire from the sect's General Affairs Hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, with graying temples and a full head of silver hair, he was sitting outside his cave dwelling, earnestly teaching several children in their teens who had just come up the mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Song Qingming walking from afar, Song Xinyu quickly put down the bamboo slips in his hand, gave a few instructions to the children, and then took the initiative to step forward and bow to Song Qingming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After meeting, Song Qingming smiled and nodded slightly at him, and the uncle and nephew tacitly went to a stone table nearby and sat down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seventh Uncle, I heard you returned from outside last time. I wanted to take Linxi to Mount Funiu to visit you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just a coincidence that I encountered her in seclusion breaking through her cultivation, so it never happened. I didn't expect you to come to me first, Seventh Uncle.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh! Not long before I left, I heard Yuanfang say that Linxi had just broken through to the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment. I didn't expect her to break through her realm again so quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This child's cultivation talent is quite good, faster than our cultivation speed back then. It seems she has great potential for forming a Core in the future, and it is also thanks to your good teaching over the years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next time, when I go to Mount Funiu, I will ask Yuanfang to invite you to the family school to give lectures to the children on the mountain and share in the joy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Song Qingming's praise, a smile immediately appeared on Song Xinyu's face as he replied: \"Since Seventh Uncle has given instructions, this nephew will certainly not decline.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Linxi comes out of seclusion, I will definitely take her back to visit. I will not keep you waiting long.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After agreeing with Song Qingming, Song Xinyu seemed to suddenly remember something and asked Song Qingming: \"Seventh Uncle, there is something I heard inadvertently. I don't know if it is useful to you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some time ago, I heard Ruoxu tell me that something big seemed to have happened in Taiyue Lake to the south of the sect, and even Uncle-Master Li and Uncle-Master Fang had already taken the sect's law enforcement team to Taiyue Market.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that the sect has only been peaceful for a few years, it wouldn't be going to war with the Nine Origins Sect again, would it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the news from Song Xinyu, Song Qingming was slightly stunned, then shook his head directly at him and said: \"After the last great battle between the sect and the Nine Origins Sect ended, both sides signed a contract. There shouldn't be any action so soon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When I passed by Taiyue Lake last time, I saw many demonic beasts besieging the market in the south. I guess it's just the demonic beasts in Taiyue Lake being restless again. It's not a big deal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh! That's good!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seventh Uncle, thanks to the family's help over the years, the lives of the mortals at the foot of the mountain are getting better and better. These children were all sent up from below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last time, Linyun and Linduan participated in the Nanyue Market battle and didn't come back alive, and even Yuanrong was injured and couldn't get up. I don't want to send these children to the battlefield again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Song Xinyu finished speaking, his gaze shifted to the few children not far away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since receiving support from Song Qingming and the family, Song Xinyu had set about gathering all the descendants left behind by family cultivators at the foot of \"Mount Guyang\" and gave them a relatively prosperous and peaceful environment to survive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the special care of the cultivators on the mountain, the Song-surnamed mortals at the foot of the mountain had also developed very well over the years, and several more Song-surnamed children had been discovered to have spirit roots and were brought up to \"Mount Guyang\" to cultivate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the natural spirit roots of these children were not as good as Song Linxi's, with diligence and the care of the teachers on the mountain, they would also have a chance to reach Foundation Establishment in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing these young children before him, Song Xinyu's eyes were also full of hope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Song Qingming also felt a sense of gratification in his heart. He smiled, waved his hand gently, took out a white porcelain bottle from his body, and placed it on the stone table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seventh Uncle, is this elixir for Linxi?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, this is for you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some time ago, your aunt happened to find spirit herbs and refined a batch of life-extending elixirs. Although they are not high-grade spirit elixirs, they should be able to add five or six years of lifespan to you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xinyu, these children are still relatively young, and they will need your guidance in the future. Thank you for your hard work.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the world of immortal cultivation, life-extending elixirs have always been relatively scarce.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even in the \"Xiaoyao Sect,\" most of those qualified to enjoy such elixirs are Core Formation elders of the sect with outstanding merits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the life-extending elixir that Song Qingming suddenly took out, a look of emotion immediately appeared on Song Xinyu's face, and he nodded solemnly at Song Qingming before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After giving the elixir to Song Xinyu, Song Qingming chatted with him for a while longer before rising to bid farewell and leaving \"Mount Guyang.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After returning to the family, Song Qingming gave some instructions to Song Yuanfang and others, and soon chose to go into seclusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As spring passed and autumn came, two years passed in the blink of an eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On this day, high above the peak of \"Mount Funiu,\" a burst of clouds and mist suddenly surged, revealing a trace of five-colored glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Qingming, who was in seclusion in his cave dwelling, suddenly felt a change in the surrounding spiritual energy, then slowly withdrew his magic power, stood up, and walked out of the cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just after walking out of the cave, Song Qingming looked up and immediately discovered the anomaly in the sky, then flashed to the outside of a cave dwelling not far away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just after Song Qingming arrived, another streak of light flew from not far from the top of the mountain and landed beside Song Qingming. It was Huang Siyuan, who had also sensed the anomaly. More than two years passed in the blink of an eye. After a period of seclusion, Huang Siyuan had successfully broken through with the help of elixirs, and her cultivation had improved again, reaching the sixth level of Core Formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the \"five-colored glow\" in the sky not far away, Huang Siyuan showed a bit of envy in her eyes and said: \"Husband, has Qingyu successfully broken through her cultivation?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Song Qingming couldn't help but show a slight smile at Huang Siyuan and said: \"Not bad, it looks like it should be a success.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Qingyu went into seclusion this time, I saw that her magic power was not yet fully polished, and I thought she might have a hard time with this seclusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn't expect her to surprise me this time!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Qingyu's cultivation speed over the years has not been slower than yours, husband. Coupled with the opportunity she inherited from that sword cultivator senior, I am not surprised that she succeeded in this breakthrough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I just thought I had caught up to her, but I didn't expect to fall behind by a big step again. It seems that in this life, I am destined to only follow behind you two siblings.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Song Qingming took the initiative to hold Huang Siyuan's jade hand and said with a smile: \"Being lucky enough to follow behind others can save some worry. I actually hope that one day I can follow behind you two and share in your glory!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the two were talking, it didn't take long for the \"five-colored glow\" hovering in the sky to gradually dissipate, and then a heroic figure walked out of the cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seventh Brother, Sister-in-law! I didn't expect you both to be here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Checking for errors in the version!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Song Qingyu walking over quickly with a joyful face, Huang Siyuan hurriedly smiled and greeted: \"Congratulations, Qingyu, your cultivation has advanced another step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's rare for you to come out of seclusion today; I must cook a meal myself to celebrate.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hehe! Then I'm in for a treat today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the three greeted each other, they soon came to the \"Hui Xian Pavilion\" on the top of the mountain and enjoyed Huang Siyuan's excellent spirit culinary skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During this time, Song Qingming and his wife did not forget to ask about Song Qingyu's experience in breaking through her cultivation this time, only to learn that her successful breakthrough to the late stage of Core Formation was indeed a bit of luck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two years ago, after Song Qingyu went into seclusion, relying on an elixir given by her Senior Sister Li Xuanyi, she spent more than a year finally managing to polish her magic power to a perfect state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in the subsequent process of breaking through, the situation Song Qingyu faced was not so smooth, and she tried to break through twice in succession, but both ended in failure very quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn't until she wanted to give up that she took a risk and tried to use the seal sealed in her body during her third attempt to break through the realm, and she stumbled through this barrier. This result also made Song Qingyu secretly rejoice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seventh Brother, I told you before that besides the subsequent Nascent Soul stage cultivation method of the Xuanming Sword Art, there were three sealed runes in that seal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During my last breakthrough, I succeeded in breaking through the realm only after I tried to open one of the runes. At first, I didn't expect that this rune could actually help me break through.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh! This rune actually has the ability to help you break through your cultivation. In that case, that Senior Ling really left you a very important inheritance. You were indeed right not to choose to hand it over to the other party.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Song Qingming returned to the family and learned about Song Qingyu, he also broke into a cold sweat for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Huang Siyuan hadn't come out of seclusion early and discovered the sword intent left by Song Qingyu, Bai Yuxian and the others wouldn't have been able to find her in time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that case, it would be hard to say whether Song Qingyu could have held on until Huang Siyuan and the others arrived to rescue her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Song Qingming's affirmation, Song Qingyu smiled slightly at the corner of her mouth, nodded, and said: \"Seventh Brother! You are right. This seal and the runes were directly attached to my natal magic treasure at that time. I could feel that it seemed to be my destined opportunity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If these things were forcibly taken away by others, I am afraid that my path in this life would be cut off, and there would be no chance to go further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If that were really the case, then what meaning would there be in living? It would be better to fight to the death to seek a glimmer of survival.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Qingyu, since this rune is useful for your breakthrough in cultivation, you should not use it easily in the future. Wait until you try to break through to the Nascent Soul realm later; perhaps it will be useful to you then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Husband is right. Qingyu, you must keep this seal well. When you form your Nascent Soul in the future, it might be of great use. You must not waste it again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Qingyu, who had already thought of this, heard the exhortations of Song Qingming and his wife, and hurriedly nodded earnestly: \"Seventh Brother, Sister-in-law, don't worry. I have already thought of this, and I will definitely not use it indiscriminately in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regardless of whether this rune helps me form my Nascent Soul in the future, since it was placed together with the Nascent Soul cultivation method, it was certainly not left by Senior Ling for me to use at the Core Formation stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I was a bit anxious this time when breaking through the realm, so I boldly tried it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn't expect that a mistake would actually fulfill me. I don't know whether I should be happy or regretful that I used up a rune like this!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As long as it can be of help to you, it is not a waste. There is no need to regret it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, if you hadn't tried it, you wouldn't have known this result. Knowing the use of this thing early is not a bad thing for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Siyuan, who was on the side, echoed: \"Husband is right. No matter how good an opportunity is, it's useless if you don't know how to use it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, helping you advance to the late stage of Core Formation early this time can also help you save a lot of cultivation time. These are all visible benefits, so what is there to regret?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Qingyu, you were so anxious to break through to the late stage of Core Formation, was it because of an agreement with Senior Sister Li?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You two aren't hiding any secrets that you don't want to tell us, are you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing what Huang Siyuan said, Song Qingyu's face changed for a while, and she replied with some embarrassment: \"Senior Sister Li and I did agree to go to the East Sea for a tour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seventh Brother, Senior Sister Li didn't let me say much about this matter. Why don't you guys not ask?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Song Qingyu's embarrassed look, Song Qingming sighed with a smile and said: \"This is a matter between you and Senior Sister Li. Whether you tell me or not doesn't matter. Just think it through yourselves.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Song Qingyu's cultivation had reached the late stage of Core Formation, her strength was not weak among Core Formation cultivators, and she had experience traveling abroad many times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Song Qingming would be a little worried about her wanting to travel with Li Xuanyi, he quickly persuaded himself to let go and nodded to her without asking further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After answering Song Qingyu, Song Qingming changed the subject and directly brought up the matter of Bai Yuxian suggesting that he integrate into the sect, wanting to hear the opinions of the two women in person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing Song Qingming slowly explain the reasons, Huang Siyuan didn't have many thoughts. She felt that as long as Song Qingming could get the sect's support for forming his Nascent Soul, integrating into the sect directly was not a bad thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Song Qingyu's expression became a bit difficult, and she couldn't help but ask: \"Seventh Brother, if you integrate into the sect, Sister-in-law will definitely have to go too. Then I will be the only one left at home. You shouldn't want me to integrate into the sect together, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If we all leave, I'm afraid Mount Funiu will be in chaos. If we regret it then, it will be too late!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If Qingyu is willing to go with us, that is of course possible. But if that happens, there will be no one to watch over the house, which I'm afraid won't work!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if the three of us choose to integrate into the sect directly, someone still needs to sit in charge of Mount Funiu. Otherwise, with so many people at home, I'm afraid Yuanfang won't be able to hold it down for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Husband, this still needs to be agreed upon with the sect first!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the suggestions of the two women, Song Qingming nodded slightly, picked up the spirit tea on the table, took a sip, and then said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whether I can successfully form my Nascent Soul or not, whether to integrate into the sect is indeed something we need to consider.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Senior Sister Bai has already personally represented the sect and made this clear to me. I'm afraid this matter cannot be delayed for long, and sooner or later we will have to give the sect an answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recently, I have carefully weighed this matter, and after thinking about it, I have decided not to integrate into the sect for the time being.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What? If you do this, Seventh Brother, will the sect...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Song Qingyu and Huang Siyuan looking at him with some astonishment, Song Qingming nodded calmly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know what you are worried about. Actually, I originally intended to integrate into the sect directly, but later, I figured out one thing and slowly changed my mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I integrate into the sect now, I will inevitably have to compete with Senior Brother Chen for the opportunity to form a Nascent Soul. This is not a good thing for either of us.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not just me, Qingyu, you and Siyuan might encounter such things in the future. With the sect's current foundation, it is impossible to support all of us in attempting the Nascent Soul realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So I feel that rashly integrating into the sect now is not necessarily beneficial to the three of us in the future.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This... Seventh Brother, what you said also makes some sense.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, Song Qingyu and Huang Siyuan were both focused on letting Song Qingming have a better cultivation environment to attempt the Nascent Soul realm, so they didn't think about what disadvantages there would be for Song Qingming to join the sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, after hearing Song Qingming's explanation, they suddenly realized that after integrating into the sect, the situation each of them faced would be different from now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Foundation Establishment, the three of them had supported each other for many years. Being in the family, they had long been in sync on all matters and had no estrangement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after integrating into the sect, the things they would face in the future would not be up to them to decide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Song Qingming integrates into the sect, if he wants to get the sect's support to form his Nascent Soul, whether it is the spirit items for forming a Nascent Soul or other things, he must face competition with Chen Xuanxin, who also wants to form a Nascent Soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the future, Song Qingyu and Huang Siyuan will also encounter rising sect geniuses like Xu Ziyan and Yun Nishang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once there is a competitive relationship, no matter who finally gets the sect's support, it will easily cause estrangement between the two sides. These are difficult to avoid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that time, being in the sect, even if Song Qingming has the heart to support the two of them, if others in the sect feel it is unfair, his words alone will certainly be difficult to be effective.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the two women gradually falling into deep thought, Song Qingming said slowly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I haven't decided on this matter yet. If you feel it is inappropriate, I will consider it carefully!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There is one more thing. The family has too many enemies now, and I am always a bit worried. I plan to go to the East Sea in a while to find a relatively stable place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that time, I will send a portion of the clansmen over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For one thing, it can be considered as finding another foothold for the family, so that we don't all crowd into Qinghe County.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For another, it is also to guard against any changes in the family in the future, so that it won't implicate all the clansmen, and it can also preserve some hope for the family's future revival.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seventh Brother, do you mean you want to split the family!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing what Song Qingyu said, Song Qingming nodded with a smile: \"Yes! That is indeed the meaning, it can also be considered as leaving a way out!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I agree with this. No matter what happens in the future, it will certainly not be wrong for us to make some preparations early!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(Time flies by in a flash, 2024 is over in the blink of an eye. I wish everyone good health and happiness in the new year! Happy New Year's Day, Happy New Year! ... Let's ask for monthly tickets!)
