Although Xiping Chuixue's cultivation had now stabilized at the peak of essence refining to qi transformation.
He still had some distance to go before he could break through to the next realm.
The gap was far from small.
And as a genius.
A low-profile genius at that.
If he could avoid breaking through.
And continue suppressing his cultivation.
Xiping Chuixue would certainly prefer not to advance.
So.
He was caught in a vicious cycle.
With Xiping Chuixue's current cultivation and strength.
If he did not learn to adapt.
Then once he stepped through the Chun Chui family's gates.
He would probably die.
But the steward said nothing more.
He turned and left to arrange Xiping Chuixue's enlistment in the Xiping Prefecture Army.
Ordinarily.
He would not interfere in such matters.
But he had, after all, personally brought Xiping Chuixue back to Marquis Xiping's Residence.
And after all their years together.
To say he felt no affection for Xiping Chuixue.
Would have been impossible.
But neither could he break the rules.
And give Xiping Chuixue too much help.
So.
He could only act within the bounds of his authority.
And offer Xiping Chuixue whatever help he could.
As for resources?
The resources Xiping Chuixue needed had already been determined.
He only needed to pass down instructions.
And have the storehouse prepare the resources Xiping Chuixue had requested.
The vast majority of those resources.
Were available at Marquis Xiping's Residence.
Anything they truly lacked.
Would have to come out of the steward's and Marquis Xiping's own pockets.
It was certainly not worth submitting a request to their superiors merely for one person's cultivation resources.
Their superiors would not reimburse them, either.
After all, in the future.
If the Xiping Chuixue they nurtured truly became a powerhouse.
He would first be a powerhouse
