"Jinyu, do not lose your composure. You need not concern yourself with Long Aotian's affairs. I have my own means of subduing him. What you and Jinyao must do now is cultivate to the Foundation Establishment stage as swiftly as possible, then gradually reclaim the authority you ought to possess within the family."
As everyone knew, the cultivation world was one vast arena, where the superior survived and the inferior were weeded out.
Disciples had to compete with one another; sect forces directly held grand competitions; even family disciples had to compete for status.
Even entering the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion required three rounds of trials. Naturally, the Lan Family had its own corresponding family contests.
In a world where the strong were revered, the means of seizing power were also simple and brutal.
Among the Lan Family's younger generation, whoever stood first, whoever could defeat all peers without meeting an equal, would become the next young master of the Lan Family and a candidate for the next family head.
"Yes, Ancestor, rest assured. With this Art of Condensing Ice and Transforming Qi, Jinyu will surely break through to the Foundation Establishment stage within half a year." Since receiving the cultivation art, Lan Jinyu's tone had become far lighter than before.
Bai Lan shook her head slightly. No, she could not wait half a year.
If Lan Jinyu only broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage half a year later and seized family authority then, what would Bai Lan have to use against Li Xunxian? A Core Formation stage cultivator was not so easy to deal with.
She needed Lan Jinyu to become the Lan Family's young master, the successor to the next Lan Family head.
Only then could Bai Lan firmly sit beneath the true title of "Lan Family Ancestor."
