Chapter 10: Take the Clan, Use the Clan
Since the first ancestor of Xiao Xuehua, the Xiao family in Xiqingshan has attached great importance to the spiritual root qualifications of the clan.
Xiao Xuehua was born into a casual cultivator and had poor spiritual qualifications. By chance, he received the inheritance of a foundation-building cultivator. After a lot of hardships, he successfully built the foundation.
In the decades since then, Xiao Xuehua got married and had children, and gradually reproduced into the Xiqingshan lineage.
The second-generation ancestor Xiao Haiyun was sent to the Ziyuan Sect to practice because of his heavy spiritual root qualifications.
At that time, the Xiao family did not have so many dirty things, and the family also showed a prosperous scene under the auspices of the first ancestors.
For the next two hundred years, the Xiao family has always adhered to this principle and has promoted the tribesmen with excellent spiritual root qualifications.
For example, Xiao Yichen took this bonus and achieved his foundation-building cultivation in his twenties.
Therefore, when Xiao Yichen said this, everyone's first reaction was that they couldn't believe it.
From the foundation-building elders to the Qi training clan members, everyone was shocked.
This was beyond everyone's expectations.
"Not mentioning the three-spirit monks, aren't there few who fail to build foundations for the second-spirit monks?"
Xiao Yichen smiled softly and continued to say to himself: "Unless a cultivator of the Tianling Root appears in the family, I will not give this foundation-building path for anyone!"
He spoke firmly and resoundingly, not caring about the strange gazes of the Xiao family.
"But..."
Xiao Yushan thought about it and said: "The probability of the two spiritual root cultivators achieving the Purple Mansion is still very high."
"No!"
Xiao Yichen replied seriously: "The Fifth Elder and I are both two spiritual roots. Our cultivation level is one in the early stage of foundation building and one in the late stage of foundation building. The Xiao family will not lose hope within a hundred years."
Speaking of this, he glanced at Xiao Bokong not far away: "Bokong is still very early to build the foundation, and there will be the seventh, eighth, or even ninth generation tribe members later. We should take a long-term view!"
Xiao Yushan opened his mouth and didn't say anything after all.
The head of the family is still young and has two hundred years left before the foundation building period. The perspective of thinking about the problem is completely different from that of the old guys like them.
The entire history of the Xiao family in Xiqingshan is only two or three hundred years.
Everyone present also understood that the new head of the family was to open a path to heaven for cultivators with many spiritual roots in the clan.
Cheng or Bucheng put aside first, and this kind of mind is enough to impress the Xiao family.
No one dares to guarantee what the Xiao family will be in the next two hundred years.
Besides, no one feels that he is so stupid that he can compete with this new head of the family for the rest of his life.
At most, in just a few decades, the Presbyterian Church will completely delegate power to this young man.
This time will become shorter and shorter as Xiao Yichen's cultivation grows.
The members of the Xiao family below stopped and did not dare to make trouble on the contrary.
It would be fine if the family didn’t care about the past, but if they really wanted to care, no one would have any good results.
"Whether the new family rules are incomplete, they will be improved one by one in the future."
Xiao Yichen smiled confidently and said, "It's still the trial stage, and the areas that are not thoughtful will be solved sooner or later."
Then, he waved his hand to signal the people of the Xiao family to retreat.
This matter ends here, and it makes no sense to go deeper.
The pain encountered during the reform process was already under Xiao Yichen's expectations.
There must be someone who sacrifices for the family, and there will always be someone who benefits from it. This is an eternal theme.
......
Xiao Family Council Hall.
After dismissing his clan members, Xiao Yichen and the four elders summarized what happened today.
The Xiao family's life was so comfortable in the past.
The advancement channel is stuck by the family, and there is no sense of urgency in daily practice. These are the roots.
It was precisely because Xiao Yichen wanted to change this situation that he proposed various measures to ensure it.
But he didn't expect that so many problems still arose during the actual execution.
Speaking of which, the primary responsibility lies with him. He did not explain the words clearly before and did not analyze the problems thoroughly.
The secondary responsibility lies with the four elders, who did not really take this matter seriously and did nothing.
The Xiao family members are not innocent either. These people have not placed their mentality in the right place, and they seem impulsive and blind.
"This is the end of this matter, and I will not be an example."
Xiao Yichen said in a heavy mood.
This time he couldn't hold him accountable too much, and the Xiao family still needed these elders to maintain it.
It was time for him to truly show his strength until these reform measures first showed results and gain a certain prestige in the family.
Like now, except for the identity of the head of the family and the cultivation level of the early stage of foundation building, Xiao Yichen has no place to convince his clans.
"Who can't wait..."
He smiled bitterly in his heart, feeling helpless.
Xiao Yushan pondered for a moment and suggested: "Many places at the foot of the mountain lack spiritual energy, which is indeed not suitable for the clan members' practice. We should still discuss a plan to achieve both sides."
"It's hard!"
Xiao Qianshan sighed: "The family can't distribute spirit stones to these little guys as compensation, right?"
"It's not impossible."
Xiao Yichen thought and continued: "We can set a suitable standard for the tribes to exchange for low-grade spirit stones with family contributions."
In this way, not only will the clan members not delay their practice, but may also be more diligent.
Of course, if you redeem within the family, you can get some discounts.
"But..."
Xiao Yushan retorted: "In this way, the family will not get any benefits from them, and may have to pay some spirit stones, which is not worth the loss!"
Xiao Yichen chuckled and said, "I have seen a saying in ancient books: Take it from the people and use it for the people. We cannot be blinded by some short-term gains and losses."
......
......
The four elders were stunned and fell into deep thought.
They still need to think carefully about the pros and cons.
a long time.
Xiao Qianshan gritted his teeth and said, "Then do as the head of the family will."
Xiao Yichen nodded and comforted: "The family can't lose hundreds of spirit stones a year. In the long run, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages."
Xiao Qianshan glared at Xiao Yichen fiercely and said sternly: "Don't say so easily by the head of the family! You will need tens of thousands of low-grade spirit stones in a hundred years, and the price is not too high."
Xiao Yushan and the other two sighed, as if they were also regretting the loss of such a large amount of spirit stone.
The head of the family really doesn't know how expensive the firewood and rice are...
Xiao Yichen was stunned for a moment, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
He is really not used to the way these old guys think.
It seems reasonable to count hundreds of years and thousands of years at any time.
But who knows what changes will happen to the Xiao family in these hundred and thousands of years?
He was too lazy to continue arguing about this topic, and time would always prove that he was right.
All of them have gone, and there are several romantic figures, and I still look at the present day!
I don't know if these old guys have the chance to see that day...
