Guidance

"What do you mean, Seventh Uncle? I don't quite understand." Zhang Delin frowned.

She turned to look at Zhang Xuanchen, her small face showing a look of confusion.

Zhang Xuanchen slowly spoke:

"The world is full of splendor and countless opportunities, but this light will never favor those who are willing to give up on themselves or abandon their potential."

As he spoke, Zhang Xuanchen turned his head and ruffled Zhang Delin's hair.

He smiled and said, "Don't dwell on your current setbacks, and don't let yourself get depressed."

Hold fast to your ambition and dreams, and then grow upwards step by step.

"The Lineage will not withhold any resources that a member of the family is entitled to, at least as long as I, Seventh Uncle, am still alive."

This situation will not occur.

If any member of my clan dares to cross this line, I will make them spend the rest of their lives in my Zhang Clan Heavenly Prison.

In severe cases... the perpetrators will be killed on the spot.

Zhang Xuanchen's voice was soft and lacked any murderous intent, but it was extremely firm.

Some might think he was cold-blooded and ruthless, but he knew that once certain things were set in stone, more people would die, and the very foundation of his Lineage would be shaken.

"Xiao Lin, the Lineage will not abandon any member, provided that... you don't abandon yourself."

When you refuse to give up on yourself, the world's magnificent fireworks will eventually shine for you.

"Sigh, of course, some things are easier said than done."

"Xiao Lin, are you confident you can continue?"

As he spoke, Zhang Xuanchen extended his fist toward Zhang Delin.

He could sense Zhang Delin's resentment.

He didn't want to give up on himself, but after suffering setbacks, he lacked guidance and encouragement, which led to confusion and feelings of inferiority.

In this situation, it was impossible for him to confide in his teacher.

Children like Zhang Delin, who awakened their Spirit Root in the mortal world and entered the academy to study, could only digest their grievances and sorrows on their own.

Even though children in the cultivation world are generally precocious, they are still only seven or eight years old.

There are many things I simply can't understand.

It seems that the Family School needs further improvement.

No matter what world you're in, children are the foundation of a Lineage's and a nation's enduring prosperity.

Zhang Delin, who was lying next to Zhang Xuanchen, heard these words.

His gaze slowly hardened.

He clenched his fist and bumped it with Zhang Xuanchen's.

He said firmly:

"Seventh Uncle, I want to cultivate. I want to take a chance for myself."

"Those Rogue Cultivator outside are all desperately vying for resources, trying to survive, and striving to cultivate."

I was born into the Zhang Family and enjoy abundant resources; if I don't put in the effort...

They'll probably be cursed by countless people.

Hehehe.

Hearing this, Zhang Xuanchen chuckled, "What you're saying makes perfect sense."

My Zhang Family will not be stingy with Cultivation Resources for future generations.

Strive diligently in your cultivation; I wish you success in your practice.

Remember, if you have any questions about cultivation or daily life, you can ask your older cousins or other elders in the clan.

"Okay, Seventh Uncle."

Zhang Delin replied and then stood up.

He jumped off the rock, waved to Zhang Xuanchen, and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Seventh Uncle."

I'm going back to school now, goodbye Seventh Uncle.

After saying that, he ran towards the school.

Watching Zhang Delin's retreating figure, Zhang Xuanchen shook his head with a smile, "That kid..."

Sigh, I guess I'll just have to keep trying.

After all, youth should be full of vigor and ambition.

After a sigh, Zhang Xuanchen continued walking towards the Core Zone Spirit Vein.

Zhang Chongxian did not have a courtyard, only a stone house and a small courtyard enclosed by a half-person-high spirit tree.

At this moment, he was not in seclusion to cultivate, but was quietly lying on the rocking chair in the courtyard, taking a nap with his eyes closed.

Once you reach the Nascent Soul Realm, simply staying in seclusion will not help improve your cultivation.

As soon as Zhang Xuanchen reached the door, the small, half-person-high wooden door opened automatically.

Zhang Xuanchen smiled and walked to the stone table next to Zhang Chongxian.

He poured a cup of tea for Zhang Chongxian and himself before sitting down.

He laughed and said:

"The Immortal Ancestor seems quite content."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chongxian raised an eyebrow and joked:

"Nothing is more pleasant than the pleasure of our Clan Leader Zhang."

"Young and accomplished, with a beautiful wife and two children, wow, what an enviable life!"

As he spoke, he picked up the Spirit Tea that Zhang Xuanchen had poured for him and took a sip.

Zhang Xuanchen chuckled mischievously, "If the Immortal Ancestor is envious, why not just find one?"

With your current power and status, all you have to do is announce the news of your marriage...

Those female cultivators could stretch from Xuanxiao Mountain to Lingxiao Immortal City.

Pick whatever you like, choose whatever you want.

"It would be quite a wonderful thing if the Zhang Family could have a little ancestor born then."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chongxian sighed deeply.

Images of his time with Chu Zhiwei flashed through his mind.

There was a time when he truly had this idea.

Unfortunately, fate is fickle.

He replied:

"No, I don't have that idea right now."

Let's talk about it another time.

"You've come here today intending to head to the Dragon Court Secret Realm?"

Seeing that Zhang Chongxian was trying to change the subject, Zhang Xuanchen sighed inwardly.

It seems that Chu Zhiwei caused great harm to the Immortal Ancestor.

Indeed, if it were him, he probably wouldn't have done as well as the Ancestor.

However, this was not shown.

Instead, he nodded and replied, "The Immortal Ancestor has keen insight."

I have come here to say goodbye.

Xiao Tian was already capable of handling things independently and could control the direction of the Lineage's development.

Furthermore, Immortal Ancestor is stationed in the Lineage.

I have nothing to worry about.

They wanted to take advantage of the relatively calm situation in the South Sea to seize all the resources they were entitled to.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chongxian placed his teacup on the stone table.

He sighed and said, "Have you thought this through?"

You are Human Race, yet you have cultivated the Divine Dragon Hegemony Body Art.

To put it bluntly, what you're doing is stealing.

We don't know the nature of the Dragon Clan. What if there are powerful Dragon Clan within that Secret Realm? You...

Zhang Chongxian didn't say what came next, but Zhang Xuanchen was well aware of his concerns.

He replied:

"Immortal Ancestor, how can you catch tiger cubs without entering the tiger's den?"

"Moreover, I am confident that even if there are powerful Dragon Clan beings in the Dragon Court Secret Realm, they will most likely not kill me."

At most, they'll just drive me away.

There is, of course, a basis for this statement.

The Dragon Court Secret Realm is most likely the Dragon Clan World Domain that was destroyed in the Upper Realm.

If that's the case, then they must know about the Devil Race invasion.

With the talent he has shown, he has the potential to become a key force in the fight against the Devil Race.

There's a high probability they won't be killed.

At that time, if Xuanjing and Shuoxing put in a good word for us, even powerful Dragon Clan will have to give us some face.

There's no other way. If we don't take the risks and stay in the clan to cultivate, how long will it take to break through to the Spirit Transformation?

Three hundred years?

Five hundred years?

By then, it will be too late.

He simply couldn't wait that long.

Seeing Zhang Xuanchen's resolute attitude, Zhang Chongxian waved his hand.

"Alright, since Ling Shuang has agreed to let you go, why should this old man stop you?"

Go ahead, go ahead.

Remember, you must come back alive.

Even if it means losing the Divine Dragon Hegemony Body Art, you must come back alive.
