Zhang Zhixuan and the others were all monks in the foundation-building stage, and their flying speed was already very fast. They were not burdened by monks in the qi-training stage, and they did not need to carry a large amount of cargo. It only took more than twenty days for Zhang Zhixuan and others to return to Lushan.
The four of them returned to Tiantai Peak. Zhang Zhixuan and Qing Chan lived in Wangyue Pavilion, while Han Yan temporarily lived at the foot of the mountain and lived with her mother for a while.
Han Yan's mother is over seventy years old. This time the mother and daughter meet, it is probably the last time they meet. The next time Han Yan can come back, it will be at least twenty-four years later.
Originally, the clan leader planned to send the old lady to a mortal settlement at the foot of Qingxuanzong Mountain, and then arrange for some people to take care of her so that the mother and daughter could meet frequently.
But the old lady was unwilling to leave her homeland, let alone die outside. She was unwilling to leave Lushan at all costs.
Han Yan's mother's health is already a little bad, and she may not be able to survive for another twenty-four years. Therefore, mother and daughter cherish this rare period of time.
After Zhang Zhixuan returned to Lushan, he immediately sent his 19th uncle Zhang Mengling and several key family members to Montenegro to take charge of the Wang family's property in Baibao Pavilion.
With the resources of the Zhang family, plus the fact that the clan leader is already a third-level mid-level Talisman Maker, and Zhang Zhixuan is also a third-level low-level alchemist, the two of them are enough to support the Baibao Pavilion.
As for Wang Luyuan and other members of the Wang family, they will leave Montenegro with the Zhu family's caravan next time and return to Taicheng County to settle in Lushan.
Unfortunately, the news that Zhang Zhixuan brought back the Foundation Establishment Pill spread among the family, just like a pebble thrown into a pool, causing a ripple in the stagnant water.
Several elders in the family are now over sixty and are no longer suitable for taking the Foundation Establishment Pill.
However, some monks who were close to sixty years old, as if they smelled the smell of blood, used their family's good skills to exchange for the Youhuan Dan, hoping to break through to the ninth level of Qi training and compete for a chance to build a foundation.
This kind of turmoil has even affected the clan leader and Zhang Zhixuan.
Even Zhang Hanyan, who had been away from home for many years, was feeling a little troubled these days, and her interceding relatives almost stepped on her mother's door.
Zhang Leqian is the patriarch of the Zhang family, and now has the largest say in the Zhang family. Some family elders first look for him.
Especially the seventeenth uncle Zhang Mengqian has come to the back mountain three times. Even if the clan leader does not relent, he still bothers him relentlessly.
Seeing Zhang Mengjian coming again, Zhang Leqian's face suddenly dropped and he reprimanded: "Mengjian, it's not me who is telling you, you are over sixty years old and are no longer suitable for taking the Foundation Establishment Pill. Why don't you give up and behave like this?"
What's the point of bothering me? Moreover, I have already told you that these two foundation-building pills have owners. One pill will be given to the descendants of the Wang family, and the other will be given to Zhixuan's Taoist companion Qing.
Zen."
Zhang Mengqian had already lost his face because of the Foundation Establishment Pill. He said shamelessly: "Third Uncle, Qingchan is a foreigner after all. I just can't take the Foundation Establishment Pill. Isn't there still my grandson Si Dao?
He is a monk with three spiritual roots. He is only twenty-four years old now, and his cultivation has reached the sixth level of Qi training. He will definitely reach the ninth level of Qi training before he is sixty years old. If I don’t fight for him now, he will not build anything in the future.
Kidan, what should we do when we reach the stage of foundation building?"
"Zhixuan didn't take the foundation-building pill, didn't he still succeed in building the foundation?"
"Although Si Dao has good spiritual roots, not everyone can compare with Zhixuan." Zhang Mengjian replied solemnly.
"You yourself know the value of the Foundation Establishment Pill. I don't know who gave you the courage to ask for the Foundation Establishment Pill. If your fourth brother and ninth brother are at the age suitable for Foundation Establishment, I have no choice but to find a way. Ask Zhixuan to open your mouth and ask for this Foundation Building Pill.
But of what merit do you have, that you dare to come to me and speak so brazenly?
I am still in charge now. If you want to be the master, go and build the foundation first. After you build the foundation, we will naturally discuss it with you if we have any major issues. You don't even look in the mirror to see how much you weigh. Ji Liang actually wanted to decide the ownership of the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Let me tell you, don’t say that you haven’t built the foundation yet. Even if you have built the foundation, you can’t have the final say on this kind of thing. You should go back quickly. In a few days, I will notify you elders to come to the back mountain and tell you. The right to own the Foundation Establishment Pill."
After Wang Luyuan and the others came back, Zhang Leqian immediately notified all the ninth-level qi-training elders of the families living nearby. The backbone of the late qi-training stage, Wang Luyuan of the Wang family, was also invited to the back mountain by Zhang Leqian.
When the three foundation-building monks Zhang Zhixuan, Han Yan, and Qing Chan arrived, Zhang Leqian immediately said: "Let me tell you the good news first. Qing Chan has taken a foundation-building pill to build the foundation."
The reason why Zhang Leqian told lies was actually a kind of strategic deception, concealing Qingchan's spiritual roots and dispelling others' suspicion.
Otherwise, if one after another monks from the Zhang family were able to build the foundation without using the foundation building pill, even the Qingxuan Sect would have to come to investigate.
In fact, this Foundation Building Pill is still in Zhang Zhixuan's hands.
"The reason why this Foundation Building Pill was given to Qing Chan was because it was Zhixuan's opportunity. Including the family's third-level spiritual veins in Lingjing Mountain, they were all successfully cultivated with the high-grade spiritual stones in Zhixuan's hands.
As for where the high-grade spiritual stone in Zhixuan's hand came from, I can't tell you. I can only say that it was Zhixuan's chance. This Foundation Building Pill was not exchanged for the relics of Patriarch Chuyun as rumored outside.
We all know that Patriarch Chu Yun was enthroned at the gate of Qingxuan Sect. His relics were not left to the family, but part of them fell into the hands of Qingxuan Sect and part of them fell into the hands of Granny Yunzhi.
The past few decades were so difficult for the family. Meng Long and Meng Quan, the pillars of the family, all missed the opportunity to build the foundation.
Even Han Yan's Foundation Establishment was the Foundation Establishment Pill that Zhixuan and others sacrificed their lives to hunt monsters and earned good deeds to exchange for her.
If I have a high-grade spiritual stone in my hand, I can exchange it for her for a foundation-building pill as long as I give it to Han Yan. Why would I let Meng Long and Meng Chong die in vain?
You must not spread any of these words today, otherwise I will be merciless, and the flying sword in my hand will be merciless. I will kill all those who leaked the secret, and expel their whole family from the family tree, leaving them to fend for themselves. .I don’t want to see what happened more than 30 years ago repeat itself in the future.”
More than thirty years ago, someone colluded with outsiders to spread the news that Han Yan was going to Qingxuan Sect. The Zhang family's opponents attacked the two of them on the way and almost killed Zhang Mengling and Han Yan.
This incident once angered Zhang Leqian, who cut the traitors into two pieces with his own hands and expelled their families from Lushan.
In a place like Taicheng County, where there is wilderness everywhere, ordinary mortals cannot survive without the protection of immortal cultivators.
These Zhang family members soon starved to death in the wild and were devoured by wild beasts. They were all dead within half a year.
This tragic scene still echoed before the eyes of the older monk.
After hearing what the clan leader said, everyone nodded and swore a blood oath on the spot, vowing never to reveal the secret of today's conversation.
