Everyone in the Within the Su Family was stunned, clearly not having reacted yet.
Su Hao actually stepped down voluntarily?
How could he possibly be willing to give up his position as Family Head so easily?
Su Hao's voice rang out again. "Does anyone have any objections?"
Everyone just looked at each other without saying a word, mainly because no one understood what Su Hao was trying to do.
Seeing that none of them spoke, Su Hao looked towards the Great Elder.
"Great Elder, what do you think?"
The Great Elder was somewhat bewildered by these questions. To be honest, he definitely wanted to take the position of Family Head.
The Su Family has many businesses. As long as I take over as the Family Head, my branch will reap endless benefits.
The key question is why the Family Head would relinquish Family Head position at this particular time.
Su Hao had already made his decision. Seeing that the Great Elder didn't speak, he didn't bother to argue any further and simply placed the Family Head's identity Token on the table.
"Since no one has any objections, then it's decided."
"Great Elder... no, Family Head, from now on, I'll have to trouble you to keep a close eye on the Su Family."
After saying that, Su Hao turned and left, but his back view looked somewhat desolate.
He was naturally unwilling to give up his position as Family Head, but he had no choice. For the sake of his child and the Su Family, giving up his position as Family Head was the best option for him.
Status and position are alluring to every man.
Su Hao is a man too, and his mentality is similar.
Stepping out of the hall, Su Hao suddenly felt a sense of relief. He realized that relinquishing the position of Family Head wasn't necessarily a bad choice.
At least there's not that much pressure.
He no longer needs to handle all the affairs of the Su Family.
Being in a higher position inevitably means having more things to handle.
"Sigh, I guess I'll have to focus on raising my two children from now on."
His aptitude is average, not bad, but not good either. He will most likely break through to the Profound Immortal in the Future, but the Profound Immortal realm will most likely be the peak of his cultivation career.
After that, he moved to the Back Mountain with Ye Qianqian and their two children.
The Back Mountain originally belonged to the Su Family Ancestor home, and Su Family Members were not allowed to enter freely without being summoned.
Su Hao's move directly to the Back Mountain sparked much discussion, with many speculating about what had happened between Su Hao and the Ancestor.
The Great Elder didn't mind much. Su Hao had already gone to such lengths and even relinquished the position of Family Head to him. His goal had been achieved, so there was no need to concern himself with Su Hao anymore.
He did not ruthlessly suppress Su Hao's faction; everyone else's positions remained unchanged, including Su Hao's appointment as Elder of the Su Family.
After all, he was Su Family High-Ranking Members and possessed considerable strength, making him an indispensable part of the Su Family.
Seven years Past in the blink of an eye.
Su Chen and Su Lan have grown up, and Su Lan has shown amazing talent over the years. She reached the Saint Realm at the age of two, the Emperor Realm at the age of four, and broke through to the Immortal Stage at the age of six, becoming Human Immortal Cultivation Level.
"Brother, brother!"
Su Lan's voice came from afar. She was skipping and jumping, looking very happy, and her chubby cheeks were very cute.
In an old Small Courtyard, Su Chen sat by the pond, where fish swam happily.
Su Chen turned his Past and looked at his 'older sister' with some helplessness. He was supposed to be the older brother, but Su Lan insisted that she was born first, so she was the older sister.
The key point is that she was also very stubborn, so in the end Su Chen didn't bother arguing with her anymore.
Su Lan ran up to Su Chen, tossed him a Pill, and, hands on her hips, said with an air of arrogance, "Look what this is! Your older sister went to great lengths to refine this Pill for you. It can compensate for your innate deficiencies, allowing you to begin cultivating."
Su Chen raised an eyebrow and looked at Su Lan with great surprise.
Such things that can compensate for congenital deficiencies are extremely precious, not to mention Pill, which can only be refined at the level of Primordial Golden Immortal.
How did this girl manage to do that?
However, this girl has been extremely mysterious since childhood, displaying knowledge beyond this level. With Su Chen's knowledge, he could naturally guess a thing or two, but he was too lazy to dwell on these things, nor would he take the initiative to explore the secrets of Su Lan.
Su Chen shook his head and said, "The main reason I can't cultivate is because my physical body is weak. To make up for my innate deficiencies, I have to wait until I'm around twelve years old before I can start cultivating, otherwise my Meridians won't be able to handle it."
"I may lack talent, but I'm not useless."
For him, it didn't really matter whether his Cultivation Level on the surface improved or not; what mattered was his comprehension of the power of the Great Dao.
He only needs to gradually improve his Time Great Dao, Time Great Dao will give back to him, at which point his physical body will naturally strengthen.
One advantage of this is that it completely eliminates the Cultivation Level, as it deviates from the normal scope of cultivation, allowing for a very low profile.
Just like Su Chen, although he currently has no Cultivation Level, his actual combat strength is at least that of Immortal King.
This is the enhancement that the power of Dao principles provides to him.
Su Lan's expression hardened. "Are you being naughty again? Just eat what I tell you to eat, why are you babbling on and on?"
Su Chen was speechless at her behavior. When did he ever get the chance to be scolded like that by a little girl?
However, he knew he couldn't win against Su Lan, so he simply took the Pill and put it in his mouth.
Su Lan immediately stepped forward and patted Su Chen's head, a smile on her face, "That's a good boy."
"And another thing, what are you doing in this Courtyard all day instead of going out to play? People who don't know you would think you're much older; you look like an old man."
Su Chen was speechless. This "older sister" was really meddling, but he could also sense Su Lan's sincerity, so he didn't say anything more.
He turned around and sat down in the chair, saying with a contented expression:
Forget it, I still prefer to lie around at home.
Su Lan glanced at Su Chen with a dismissive look, but too lazy to say anything more, she turned and left to go back to her cultivation.
Although Su Lan often stayed in the Back Mountain, gold always shines, and her strength became known to many people.
Gradually, she also earned the nickname of the Su Family Prodigy.
However, she never revealed her Constitution to outsiders, so no one knew that she was Chaos Body. People in the Su Lineage assumed that Su Hao voluntarily resigned from the position of Family Head because the Ancestor had promised him benefits.
The most likely benefit of this is raising his children.
Thinking about it this way, everything seems to make sense.
Why did Su Hao move directly to the Back Mountain after stepping down Family Head that day, and why did Su Lan's Cultivation Level progress so quickly?
This only shows that it's not necessarily because Su Lan has good talent; it's possible that the Ancestor used a lot of resources on her.
The current Head of the Su Family, who is also the Su Family's Great Elder, was deeply moved. The Ancestor had made such a great sacrifice to prevent internal strife within the Su Family.
Behind the Su Family Back Mountain.
Su Chen lay back in the chair, and for some reason, he suddenly felt a little bored.
In his previous life, he was able to lie down because he had his wives who Tiandu chattered around him; now they're gone.
Suddenly, Su Chen felt a pang of sadness and a deep sense of nostalgia began to fill his heart.
Finally Su Chen sighed softly.
Back when Wangyun Mountain, even if he sat there for tens of thousands of years, Su Chen never felt bored.
But now, after only a few years at home, he feels extremely lonely and bored.
Taking a deep breath, Su Chen's expression changed slightly. He raised his hand and looked up at the sky:
"In my past life, I liked to lie flat; in this life, I might as well try a different way of living."
