Gu Yangyu's intervention can be regarded as taking care of the Ximen family. The five talents who cultivate the four arts do not need to fight with monsters.
Instead of thirty combat power points, there are thirty monks in the late stage of Qi training, which is too important for preserving the family's strength.
The Ximen family dispatched a late-stage foundation-building monk, and after removing seventy combat power points, the remaining fifty combat power points were fifty late-stage Qi-training practitioners.
The family has seventy or eighty late-stage Qi practitioners, which is completely sufficient, and some can be drawn from affiliated Qi-training families.
If there are five more talents in the Four Arts of Immortal Cultivation, the Ximen family will need to dispatch ten, but they do not need to fight with monsters. No matter how many more are dispatched, it will have no effect.
The monster beasts are gathering with all their strength, and the beast tide is coming soon. The sect has given each family a very short time to prepare. The Ximen family will prepare for five days at most before setting off for Yunjian Mountain.
Ximen Changkong told the family elders that after the beast tide passed, he and Gu Xinlan would become Taoist couples, and the double cultivation ceremony would be held at Yunjian Mountain.
In a secret room, the clan leader Ximen Rende, the great elder Ximen Renzhi, and the alchemy pavilion elder Ximen Renshan gathered together.
Whether it's Yunjian Mountain's recruitment or Ximen Changkong's marriage, they must take it seriously.
"I really didn't expect that Changkong was not only valued by the great elder of Yunjian Mountain, but also wanted to recruit him as his son-in-law. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?"
Ximen Rende frowned slightly and sighed in his heart.
Ximen Renzhi next to him breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother, this matter is no longer negotiable. Seven hundred years have passed since the past of the Ximen family. Those people back then have long been buried.
There’s no need to think too much, there’s nothing worthy of others’ concern about the Ximen family now, so it’s good to have a marriage.”
"Second brother is right. With the son-in-law Changkong here, the Ximen family will definitely be taken care of in the future. This time the sect is recruiting, we will only take care of thirty combat points."
Ximen Renshan is quite optimistic about this marriage. His eyes are very vicious and he can tell at a glance that Gu Xinlan really likes Ximen Changkong.
"The elders and foundation-building monks have the right to know the affairs of the ancestors of the Ximen family. Now Changkong has established the foundation, but he is a disciple of Yunjian Mountain?"
Ximen Rende felt a little uncomfortable when he thought about his ancestors, even though the situation at that time was complicated.
But this sect actually occupies the ancestral spiritual mountain of the Ximen family.
Ximen Renzhi frowned and analyzed carefully: "Brother, it is not appropriate to tell Changkong about this matter. He is already a core disciple of Yunjian Mountain.
He is about to marry the daughter of the great elder of the sect, and letting him know these past events will make him feel uncomfortable.
It’s been so many years, and there’s no point in worrying about our ancestors. With the Ximen family in this situation, can we still expect to take back Yunjian Mountain and glorify our ancestors?”
Next to him, Ximen Renshan nodded repeatedly. He had long given up any hope for the glory of his ancestors. He was very satisfied if he could maintain the Foundation Establishment family.
"Okay, that's it, let's not mention those old things."
Ximen Rende made a decision and looked at the two brothers: "Gu Yangyu's dowry has been sent. Our betrothal gift cannot be too shabby. What do you think?"
When the two heard this, they both frowned. The Ximen family was a foundation-building family, so how could there be anything good that could impress an eighth-level monk.
After thinking for a while, Ximen Renzhi suggested: "Brother, we just need to be sincere. There is no need to collect rare treasures. The family background is shallow, and we cannot damage the foundation."
"Show sincerity?"
"The family has preserved a thousand-year-old blood ginseng, three six-hundred-year-old purple lingzhi, a large number of spiritual fruits, spiritual fish, spiritual wine, and spiritual tea. These are enough."
"Is this really okay?"
"Brother, we are a foundation-building family. It is normal not to be able to obtain rare and exotic treasures. Preparing more low-level materials can best show your sincerity."
Ximen Rende nodded: "It seems that this is the only way. This matter is not urgent. We are only given five days to recruit in Yunjian Mountain this time. This is the top priority."
"Brother, let me lead the team of ten cultivators of the Four Arts, including Yunjin, Changqing, Changyu, and Sang Xiaoyu."
In order to offset the 30 combat power points, the Ximen family dispatched more skilled talents, and Ximen Renshan took the initiative to participate.
"Sang Xiaoyu?" Ximen Rende was confused.
Ximen Renshan explained: "Brother, this Sang Xiaoyu's alchemy skills are at least the first-level mid-level. This was all cultivated by your grandson."
"That's right, this kid Changqing made a fortune during the Qingyunfang disaster. Later, he discovered the Fox Demon Cave.
There are at least thousands of first-class middle-grade elixirs hidden away, which is more than enough to train an alchemist." Ximen Renzhi interjected.
Ximen Rende smiled. He really couldn't guess how much his grandson was worth, but it was at least hundreds of thousands, or even more.
Ten talents of the Four Arts of Immortal Cultivation were identified, and the three of them continued to select clan members in the late stage of Qi training. Time was tight and they had to be finalized as soon as possible.
Outside Sang Xiaoyudong Mansion, Ximen Changkong and Gu Xinlan walked side by side. This was the place where he lived before going to Yunjian Mountain.
Looking at the place where he lived when he was a child, Ximen Changkong was filled with emotions, and the corners of his eyes turned slightly red.
The happiest time and the mother I miss the most are no longer here.
He longed for countless times to return here and reunite with his mother, but what he waited for was the news of his parents' death.
Things have changed and people have changed. In addition to sighs and sadness, what is more in his heart is endless hatred. Revenge for his loved ones has become an obsession.
"Sister-in-law?" Gu Xinlan was a little surprised, but she was still very happy in her heart, with a smile inadvertently showing at the corner of her mouth.
Ximen Changkong calmed down and looked at his younger brother. He was slightly surprised and said happily: "Yes, he has already reached the seventh level of Qi training. Come on, take it."
"Brother, you haven't touched the resources for cultivating immortality given to you by your family?" Ximen Changqing has seen many resources in the storage bag.
Ximen Changkong said calmly: "The sect has no shortage of resources for cultivating immortals. The family is so interested in it that it is hard to refuse. I simply saved it for you. There is also a share for Xiaoyu. Why don't you see Xiaoyu?"
"Cousin Changkong, I'm here."
Sang Xiaoyu tried to refine elixirs using the best magic weapon, the alchemy furnace, in the cave, and the elixir-making rate increased by 10%, which is when he was happy.
"Little fish?"
Ximen Changkong's expression was a little stagnant, and his heart was filled with turmoil. Sang Xiaoyu and his mother actually looked so similar.
For a moment, he thought his mother was back.
"Senior brother, this?"
Gu Xinlan was also full of surprise. When Sang Mulan went to Yunjian Mountain, Ximen Changkong was eleven years old, and Gu Xinlan was eight years old, so she naturally remembered Sang Mulan's appearance.
"The little fish looks just like its mother."
Ximen Changkong was filled with emotion. He put the storage bag in Sang Xiaoyu's hand, smelled the fragrance of alchemy on her body, and said in surprise: "Xiaoyu is an alchemist?"
"First-class high-grade alchemist." Sang Xiaoyu didn't hide anything.
Ximen Changkong looked pleased: "That's great, you are already a first-level high-grade alchemist."
At that time, the Ximen family did not intend to take Sang Xiaoyu in because they were afraid of getting into trouble. It was he who moved out Gu Yangyu, his great supporter, so that the family did not have to worry.
Now, Sang Xiaoyu has become a first-level high-grade alchemist, which he did not expect.
