Hearing the decision made by Song Changsheng, Xia Yunxue suddenly clenched his fists, but soon released them. This answer was already expected, wasn't it?
From a mother's perspective, she doesn't want her son to be a Young Clan Head. In that position, there are too many things to bear.
Song Xianming has served as Patriarch for nearly a hundred years. He has made countless contributions to Lineage. He is Heaven-Supporting White Jade Pillar and Sea-Crossing Purple Gold Beam in the eyes of all Song Clan Disciples.
But how many people know that in the past hundred years, Song Xianming has walked out of Vast Peak only a handful of times, and they are trapped here Summit of Vastness unable to move all day long?
As a mother, she did not want her son to follow in the footsteps of Grandfather, but from the perspective of elder Lineage, she knew that this was the best outcome.
Song Changsheng is the most suitable candidate. He can carry all Song Clan Disciples's expectations, lead Lineage further, and even restore Lineage's past glory is no lie!
"Have you decided?" Xia Yunxue took a deep breath and asked.
"It's decided."
"Okay, the ceremony will be held together on Foundation Establishment Ceremony. Let's eat first."
During the meal, both of them had no taste for it. They didn't eat much of the dishes on the table, but the jar of [Drunken Beauty] was full of wine.
There were only two jars of this wine, and the last jar, Xia Yunxue, was left to Song Changsheng, who treasured it...
The next morning, Song Changsheng consolidated his cultivation, and then walked in the direction of the Wind Whisper Hall. Foundation Establishment succeeded, so he naturally wanted to visit Ninth Aunt.
Wind Whisper Hall is Lineage's intelligence agency. It was established a hundred years ago. It is Lineage's eyes to the outside world and has contributed a lot to Lineage.
But the development time is too short after all, and it is rare to get the core information of Ling Province's major forces, so there has never been much sense of presence in Lineage.
Song Changsheng is also the first time to come here. It is indeed very remote. It is almost embedded in the mountain wall and blocked by a large group of ivy. If you don't pay attention, you may miss it.
He opened the ivy and walked in. The temperature instantly dropped several degrees. From time to time, several people passed by him. They were all shrouded in black robes, and their faces could not be seen clearly, and their breath could not be distinguished.
Although everyone was curious about his arrival, no one stopped to question him.
Song Changsheng walked along the passage to the hall, and a sturdy middle-aged man stood in front of him and said angrily, "Third Elder, please come over."
"Please lead the way." Song Changsheng was not surprised at all that Song Luyao knew his whereabouts. After all, in someone else's territory, what kind of trouble could be hidden from him?
The strong man led the way without saying a word, while Song Changsheng looked around. He found that it was quite deserted, and he might not see anyone after walking for a long time.
Moreover, most of the people I saw were not Song Clan Disciples. They should be people with a foreign surname that Lineage had raised since childhood.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the strong man suddenly stopped and respectfully raised his hands to Song Changsheng: "The elder is inside, please go on your own."
"Good work."
Song Changsheng pushed the door open and found a space that looked like Scripture Repository inside. There were many bookshelves with various Jade Slip stacked on them.
Looking at thousands of copies at a glance is shocking.
"You're here." A cold voice came.
Song Changsheng followed the sound and saw Song Luyao sitting in a wooden wheelchair, looking at him calmly.
"Greetings to Ninth Aunt, nephew Foundation Establishment succeeded." Song Changsheng quickly stepped forward and saluted respectfully.
Song Luyao's face remained calm, as if she was not surprised by the news. She said calmly, "I heard that you have understood [Yin-Yang True Intent]?"
"Exactly."
"Yes, Purple Mansion can be expected in the future, even if it is Golden Core Great Dao, it is not completely impossible." Song Luyao's face showed a touch of relief.
"Jiu Gu is overrated. I'm just lucky."
"Well, neither arrogant nor impetuous, that's what Young Clan Head means." Song Luyao glanced at the purple Jade Tablet on his waist and said.
She was the first to propose Song Changsheng as Young Clan Head. From the current point of view, she did not misjudge the person, he was indeed the most suitable candidate.
Song Changsheng smiled bitterly, he was just lucky.
He took out a Purple Jade Bottle and said respectfully, "Lineage has the rules of Lineage. If you want to get [Foundation Establishment Pill], you must first Only those who have made great contributions to Lineage and fair competition are required. My nephew does not dare to break the rules of Lineage, so he came here to return [Foundation Establishment Pill]."
Seeing the intact [Foundation Establishment Pill], Song Luyao's eyes flashed with surprise. "Did you use Ancient Cultivator Method Foundation Establishment?"
"Yes."
"Confused!"
Song Luyao slammed the armrest of the wheelchair and shouted angrily, "Ancient Cultivator Method Foundation Establishment is extremely dangerous. If something happens to you, are you worthy of the clansmen who have high expectations for you?"
Song Changsheng lowered his eyebrows and stood beside her respectfully, not daring to refute at all.
Seeing him like this, Song Luyao's face softened slightly, and he said in a cold tone, "Don't act so recklessly in the future."
"No."
"Since you saved this [Foundation Establishment Pill], it's up to you to decide who to give it to. As Young Clan Head, you are now qualified." Song Luyao pushed Jade Bottle back and said calmly.
Song Changsheng was a little surprised when he heard this, but he immediately realized that this was a test for him from Song Luyao. Assigning [Foundation Establishment Pill] was a technical job and was far from as simple as imagined.
"My nephew, I obey."
"By the way, I have one more thing that I need you to deal with." Song Luyao picked up a Jade Slip and said suddenly.
"Please give me your instructions, Aunt Jiu."
"I have not been idle during the two years you have been in seclusion. I finally discovered some clues about the traitor Lineage. So far, I have basically been able to confirm it."
Song Changsheng A flash of anger flashed in his eyes, and he said angrily, "Who is it?"
"It's all in here. You have full authority to handle this matter." Song Luyao handed Jade Slip to him and drove the wheelchair away.
Song Changsheng put Jade Slip on his forehead. The next moment, a look of horror appeared in his eyes. "How could it be him?"
After leaving Wind Whisper Hall, Song Changsheng did not return to his residence, but came to a courtyard on the mountainside. Looking at the familiar scenery around him, Song Changsheng felt a little heavy.
"Hey, isn't this Sheng'er? Now let's call him Young Clan Head." A middle-aged man with a kind face walked towards Song Changsheng and said with a smile.
Looking at the person in front of him, Song Changsheng felt even more bitter, but he still cupped his hands and said, "Lusheng Clan Uncle."
Song Lusheng did not notice anything unusual about Song Changsheng, and greeted him with a smile, "After learning [Water Dragon's Roar], you haven't come to my place for a long time, and your father often talks about you. Come in and talk."
Song Changsheng did not move, and said with a complicated expression, "Clan Uncle, why are you a thief..."
