When Li Hong saw that he was called by Zhou Yang, he naturally did not dare to remain silent.
After he calmed down for a moment, he bowed to Zhou Yang and said, "Old ancestor, I do have something to report to my ancestor. Please make up your mind."
"The first thing is about the candidate for the next helm of the Zhou family. This junior is already nine hundred and seventy-two years old this year. Although he has taken life-extending substances, his remaining life span is less than a hundred years. This successor
The matter has become urgent and must be determined as soon as possible.”
"The second thing is about the Zhou family's establishment of the Immortal City. The Zhou family now has a large number of monks and millions of lay people. These people are scattered all over the place, which is really not conducive to the cultivation of feelings among family members. This junior has thought about it for a long time.
, I also discussed it with the senior monks of the family for a long time, and felt that the best solution is to build a fairy city where mortals and monks live together as the true foundation of the Zhou family."
"The Fairy City has been established. The Zhou family currently has sufficient manpower and material resources. However, we are still unable to agree on where to build the Fairy City. We have to ask our ancestors to make your decision, and we also need to ask for the layout of the city defense array.
It’s up to you to help.”
"The third thing is about the revitalization of the boundless sea of sand cultivation world. Thanks to your blessing, my ancestor, now the family's high-ranking monks can sail across the Duanyun Mountains on their empty ships. As long as they hang that gentleman's token, they can
Being able to pass safely has made the transfer of personnel and materials between the two places of the family much smoother."
"Because communication is much more convenient than before, and it is now difficult for the family to obtain a large independent territory in the Immortal Cultivation World of Liuyun Continent, some wise people in the family proposed the revitalization of the Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation World, and got the family's support
It is recognized by many monks from bottom to top."
"The younger generation also feels that with the financial and material resources that the family currently possesses, if they are willing to invest a lot of manpower and material resources in the boundless sand sea to create oases and spiritual veins, connect the major oases in series, and make full use of the resources of each oases, both for the family
It will be of great benefit now and in the future.”
After finishing the three things he thought were the most important in one breath, Li Hong saluted Zhou Yang again to indicate that he was finished.
After Zhou Yang heard the three things he said, he also pondered slightly.
After a while, he asked Zhou Liefeng and Zhou Liangyu, "What else? Do you two have anything else to say?"
"My ancestors are the best, I also have something I would like to ask my ancestors for help with!"
Zhou Liangyu took a deep breath and boldly spoke out first while Zhou Liefeng was still hesitating.
I saw him first bowing to Zhou Yang, and then said respectfully: "Old ancestor, when I was not yet a golden elixir, I fell in love with a beautiful female cultivator, and I have reached the point where I am ready to become a Taoist couple and spend this life together.
"
"It's just that the female nun is the daughter of a Jindan elder from a large sect, and her father is not very willing for his daughter to marry a junior."
"Later, due to his daughter's entreaty and fear of your reputation, my ancestor, his father made an agreement with the younger generation, agreeing that if the younger generation can form a golden elixir before the age of three hundred, he will agree to the marriage."
"The junior was young and energetic at the time, and could not bear to see his beloved break up with his father for the sake of the junior, so he agreed to the matter."
"It's a pity that this junior still underestimated the difficulty of forming the golden elixir and failed to complete it within the agreed time!"
When Zhou Liangyu said this, his face was filled with regret and regret.
He formed the golden elixir at the age of three hundred and twenty-seven, which is actually very fast. As long as he doesn't die in the middle of the journey, it will not be difficult to reach the ninth level of the golden elixir. There is a possibility of conceiving a baby by then.
After a pause, he continued: "Originally, this junior failed to complete the agreement within the time limit, and was already ready to give up on this marriage. He only thought that he and she were not destined to be separated, and it was God's will!"
"But what the younger generation didn't expect was that she was much stronger and more steadfast than the younger generation. In order to delay the younger generation, in order to resist her father's decision to marry the son of another elder from the same sect, she even went so far as to shut herself up and sink herself into a deep state.
In sleep!"
"After the autistic spirit is sealed, only the junior recognized by her soul can awaken her through the method of dual cultivation. However, her father hates her rebellious behavior and firmly disagrees with the junior awakening her."
Speaking of this, Zhou Liangyu suddenly knelt down in front of Zhou Yang, bowed deeply and said: "Junior, I would like to take the liberty to ask my ancestors to help me to rescue my beloved. As long as I can rescue her and wake her up, I am willing to pay any price."
!”
Golden elixir stage monks belong to the upper level in any world of immortality. They are real high-level monks. Normally, when they see Yuanying stage monks, they only need to bow their hands and bow. Only when facing the elder monks of their own power
Only then will they bow and salute to show respect.
When they visited Zhou Yang, the ancestor of the family, Zhou Liangyu and other high-ranking monks of the Zhou family only bowed and saluted, and no one knelt down to pay homage.
But now, he is willing to give up all dignity and kneel before Zhou Yang like a humble mortal, just to ask Zhou Yang, the family ancestor, to help him rescue his beloved.
From this we can also see how deeply he loves that woman.
Zhou Yang looked at Zhou Liangyu who was kneeling on the ground and kowtowed, and couldn't help but feel a trace of emotion and reminiscence in his eyes.
This situation is really not unfamiliar to him at all.
When he was cultivating immortals in Donghua Continent, he risked all his wealth and life in order to save his beloved and his daughter, and he almost knelt down to beg for help!
Zhou Liangyu's current situation is very similar to his then.
The only difference is that Zhou Liangyu's current situation is better than he was then, and it is not as urgent and urgent as he was then.
"Priceless treasures are easy to come by, but lovers are rare. Since you and that woman are both willing to sacrifice your dignity and life for each other, how can I, ancestor, not be beautiful as a human being?"
Zhou Yang looked at Zhou Liangyu with emotion, nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, ancestor, I have agreed to this matter, please wait for a while, and after the sermon is over, ancestor, I will help you get what you want."
wish!"
"Thank you, ancestors, for your love and kindness!"
Zhou Liangyu was overjoyed and kowtowed repeatedly to express his gratitude.
"Okay, you should get up too, you might as well be a dignified Jindan monk. Your knees should be a little stiffer. Don't kneel down so easily in the future!"
Zhou Yang waved his hand and gave some advice to this junior.
Then he looked at the last golden elixir monk Zhou Liefeng and asked: "What about you? Don't you have anything you want my ancestor to help with?"
When Zhou Liefeng heard this, he immediately replied respectfully: "Old Ancestor, I have learned from you, I don't have anything that I need your help with at the moment."
His answer was a bit cunning, and the word "temporarily" has a profound meaning.
However, Zhou Yang didn't care about his little thoughts. He just nodded and said: "That's fine. If you encounter something difficult to solve in the future, you can come back to seek help from me, ancestor."
Seeing this, Zhou Liefeng was relieved in his heart and hurriedly bowed and said: "Thank you, ancestors, for your love."
After settling the requests of the two juniors in this way, Zhou Yang turned his attention to Li Hong again: "Li Hong, what you just mentioned about the successor is indeed a big deal, but I, ancestor, have not been involved in the family affairs for a long time.
As for the matter, I don’t know much about the character and ability of the current juniors in the clan, so I’d better leave it to you to recommend the candidates, ancestor, I believe in your vision.”
"As for the establishment of the fairy city, if you can't decide where to build the fairy city, you don't need me, the ancestor, to make the decision. You can completely use voting to make a choice that satisfies most people. Each high-level monk in the family counts as one.
After you have made your decision, tell me your decision, and someone will naturally come to help you set up the city defense formation!"
"The last thing is to revitalize the Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation World. My ancestor, I strongly agree with this matter. You can't forget your roots. The Boundless Sand Sea Cultivation World has supported our Zhou family. Now that our Zhou family has the ability, it is natural to
Feed it back."
Zhou Yang explained his opinions and decisions one by one, and answered very smoothly.
His answer was obviously beyond the expectations of Li Hong and the other two people, so that the three of them were stunned and lowered their heads to think about the meaning of his words.
After a short period of time passed like this, Li Hong suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhou Yang, bowed his hands and said, "I understand what our ancestors meant. Thanks to our ancestors' respect, we are willing to nominate Zhou Liangyu as the head of the Zhou family.
, as the future helmsman of the Zhou family."
What?
Zhou Liangyu looked at Li Hong with wide-open eyes in shock, his eyes full of surprise and surprise.
Next to him, Zhou Liefeng's expression also changed slightly, and it was difficult to maintain his composure.
"Mr. Li, you..."
Zhou Liangyu looked at Li Hong with surprise on his face, his mouth moved but he stopped talking.
It is not difficult to see from his expression that Li Hong had never talked about this matter with him beforehand. It is very likely that this matter was the decision Li Hong made in his thinking just now.
"Liangyu, you don't have to say anything for now. Let's listen to Li explain the reason to our ancestors."
Li Hong waved his hand to Zhou Liangyu, indicating that he should be silent for now, and then looked at Zhou Yang calmly and said: "Old ancestors clearly know that the reason why the younger generation recommends Liangyu as the clan leader is mainly for the following reasons."
"First point, Liangyu has a very pure bloodline of the Zhou family. Six of the eight generations of his ancestors have been monks of the Zhou family. Now there are nearly two hundred monks of his lineage in the Zhou family, among whom he has the foundation
There are seven monks, and there is one monk from Zifu."
"Second point, Liangyu not only has good aptitude and talent, but also has excellent mental and perseverance. He is the monk in the Zhou family who is most likely to challenge the Nascent Soul in the future. As the leader of the clan, at least he will not fall behind anyone else in terms of cultivation in the future.
We can control the elders of the family so that no one will rely on their cultivation to influence the authority of the clan leader!"
"The third point is that Liangyu is young and energetic. The Zhou family has been inherited for thousands of years. There are more and more people in the family who are content with being content. Many people just want to hide under the family tree and enjoy the cool weather. They lack the spirit of openness and enterprising spirit.
, we need a young and energetic person like him to serve as the patriarch and lead the family to continue to grow bigger and stronger!"
Li Hong explained the reasons why he chose Zhou Liangyu bit by bit in such a clear and concise manner that it was completely unbelievable that he had just made this choice in a short period of time.
However, after Zhou Liefeng heard what he said, he couldn't help but said: "What Mr. Li said is very reasonable, but Liangyu has devoted himself to cultivation since he was a child and has never participated in the management of family affairs.
The experience in business can be said to be zero!"
"I don't deny Liangyu's talent in cultivation, but a genius in cultivation may not be equally talented in management. The heads and heads of various sects and families in the world of immortality are not all held by those geniuses in cultivation!"
What he said was true, but when he said these words at this time, it was inevitable that he would feel jealous.
Therefore, after he said these words, he couldn't help but steal a glance at Zhou Yang's face.
As a fellow Jindan monk, he may not care what Li Hong, who is about to die, thinks of him, but he is worried that Zhou Yang will have a bad impression of him because of his words.
It's just that he is obviously a little worried. Zhou Yang is not such a superficial person.
Regardless of whether Zhou Liefeng's words were spoken out of jealousy or not, even if it was true, he would not have any opinion on him because of this matter.
So his current expression is calm and indifferent, without showing any bias.
Faced with Zhou Liefeng's questioning, Zhou Liangyu's expression was somewhat unnatural, with a look of shame in his eyes as he was accused of being short-sighted, and a look of dissatisfaction and anger.
It's just that he is also smart. Although he is not calm in his heart, he is not stupid enough to refute Zhou Liefeng out loud and cause a quarrel.
Li Hong, who was also questioned, responded calmly and calmly: "Liefeng, what you just said is right. Lack of management experience is indeed Liangyu's biggest shortcoming."
"But experience can be accumulated. Although Li's life span is short, he can still persist for several decades. These decades are enough for Liangyu to learn and accumulate experience in this area."
"And even if we consider the worst outcome, and he is really not suitable for the position of patriarch by then, Li can also inspect other members of the family in the past few decades and select suitable people as alternatives."
When Zhou Liefeng heard this, he didn't know how to refute his words for a moment and couldn't help but fell silent.
Then in unison, the three of them looked at Zhou Yang, the ancestor of the family, waiting for his final decision.
"Since my ancestor, I told Li Hong to nominate candidates before, then this matter will naturally be based on his opinion. It has been decided in advance. Zhou Liangyu will be the deputy patriarch of the Zhou family in the next few decades. If anyone else
If he is able to fulfill his duties as the patriarch within this period of time, after Li Hong is enthroned, he will be promoted to the patriarch and become the new generation leader of the Zhou family. If he is not qualified to fulfill his duties as the patriarch, then another suitable person will be appointed as the patriarch!"
Zhou Yang glanced at the three people and made the final decision with one stroke.
