Chapter 45 I don't want to be the head of the house
Liu Jing walked out of the "Dan Weapon Pavilion" with great satisfaction, then walked to the edge of Fangshi, then drove the green leaf magic weapon, and his whole body slowly rose into the air and flew into the distance.
This impromptu action unexpectedly allowed Liu Jing to solve his worries.
In Yellow Maple Valley, almost everyone, including the cheap master Li Huayuan and other alchemy monks, as well as Liu Jing's junior brothers and sisters, knew that Liu Jing had no water spirit root.
People who do not have water spiritual roots are crazy about purchasing water-attribute spiritual stones. This behavior is too weird and can easily reveal their secrets.
In order to avoid being suspected by interested parties, Liu Jing would never openly acquire water-attributed spiritual stones.
This is also the reason why he revisited his hometown this time.
Liu Jing wanted to find a shop that he was familiar with and had strong financial resources, and then sell some things that the other party needed, including talismans, in exchange for a large amount of water-attribute spiritual stones.
The Xue family is a cultivating family from the Yuanwu Kingdom. It has no roots in the Yue Kingdom, and mistakenly believed that Liu Jing had water spiritual roots. He practiced water-based exercises and continued to use water-attribute spiritual stones as assistance.
Therefore, the Xue family became a good partner for Liu Jing.
He was not worried that the Xue family would cause an explosion, or that it would be detrimental to him. After all, the other party's living space in Yuanwu Kingdom was somewhat squeezed by the Fu family, so why would he create an enemy for himself in Yue Kingdom?
…
Xicheng is located in the east of the Taiyue Mountains, in the hinterland of the Yue Kingdom, with a pleasant climate and beautiful scenery. The Liu family settled here hundreds of years ago and thrived.
After being away for many years, Liu Jing no longer seemed to recognize his hometown in this world. He only felt that the city was much bigger than when he left.
There are still many mortals in the city. Since they need to rely on the immortal cultivator family to survive, most people are aware of the existence of the immortal cultivators.
However, like most immortal cultivating families, those mortals who work for the immortal cultivators will live in the city almost all their lives, having no worries about food and clothing but unable to leave the city.
Over the years, Liu Jing has been home several times, but only stayed for a few days, coming and going in a hurry. This is mainly because the head of the family, Liu Xiu, has been urging Liu Jing to seize all the time to practice.
Liu Jing knew that the head of the family hoped that he could successfully build the foundation before he passed away.
Speaking of which, the head of the family is not Liu Jing's direct ancestor, but he is the only young man of the Liu family's generation who has true spiritual roots. There are quite a few with four spiritual roots and five spiritual roots, but these people have never been members of the family.
hope.
Liu Jing didn't want to disturb others, so he used a concealment technique on himself and sneaked into the city quietly.
He was extremely fast, and he arrived at his residence in just half a cup of tea. Only then did he release the invisibility spell and reveal his true appearance.
When the disciples of the Liu family saw Liu Jing returning, they discovered that he had already reached the foundation building level. They were overjoyed and quickly sent people to report to their master.
Liu Jing witnessed the excited reactions of these tribesmen, but he sighed slightly in his heart.
Because the patriarch Liu Xiu's life was about to end, he knew very well that he had all the expectations placed on him by this family, and everyone was looking forward to his early success in building the foundation.
If a cultivating family does not have a foundation-building monk in charge, it will completely decline and will no longer be able to rely on the cultivating sect.
The family resources will be divided up by other immortal cultivating families, and the people in the clan will be completely reduced to casual cultivators.
At this time, Liu Jing was qualified to take over the position of head of the family because of the successful relationship he had established, but he was determined to pursue the great path and was unwilling to be bound by it.
He knew very well that once he became the head of the family, although he could control a certain amount of resources, it would be hindered by worldly affairs and affect his cultivation.
Not long after, disciples of the Liu family hurried over to express their invitation.
Liu Jing followed the other party through the long and narrow corridor and entered the magnificent hall of Liu Mansion.
In the hall, there was an old man with white hair and a vicissitudes of life sitting on a chair with his eyes slightly closed.
Liu Jing respectfully stepped forward and saluted: "Jing'er pays homage to the master of the family."
The old man slowly opened his eyes and waved his hand to the Liu family disciples to go down first.
At this time, only the two of them were left in the huge hall.
Liu Jing looked at the master's eyes that were already cloudy, and thought to himself: He hasn't seen him for several years, and the master has aged a lot.
The master of the family, Liu Xiu, is in the middle stage of foundation building, and his longevity is already more than 210 years old. He has already reached the end of his life. Even if he no longer fights with others, his death will be within ten years.
Generally speaking, the lifespan of a person who cultivates immortality in the foundation-building stage is between 200 and 250 years old, which varies according to the person's cultivation level and physical differences.
"Jing'er, it's beyond my expectation that you can build the foundation so quickly. I originally thought I would have to wait a few more years." The head of the family, Liu Xiu, said with relief, "Our Liu family still has
There is hope.”
Facing such an old man who devoted his whole life to the prosperity and decline of his family, Liu Jing couldn't bear to feel sad even though he was not his direct elder.
The head of the family covered his mouth and coughed a few times, then took out a beautiful jade box from his arms with a cautious expression. Inside was the heirloom of the Liu family - the real treasure Fire Phoenix Talisman.
Because it is a one-time consumable, the ancestors had the last words that the children of the Liu family must not use this treasure unless their lives are in danger.
However, it turned out that Liu Jing used this extremely precious treasure in order to show off among his junior brothers and sisters and enjoy the feeling of being admired by others during the battle in the Imperial City of Yue Kingdom.
"Thank you, head of the family!" Liu Jing took the real treasure solemnly and joked, "I hope I will never need this real treasure in my life, and then it will be passed down to our descendants of the Liu family from generation to generation."
The head of the family expressed his approval: "Yes, this is the greatest wealth our ancestors left to us."
Liu Jing turned his palms and found some high-grade magic weapons in his hands, and said: "Master, these are some gains I gained from my training outside. Let the disciples in the clan use them for self-defense."
"Jing'er, you are really thoughtful." A rare smile appeared on the owner's face, which was as old as orange peel.
Some of these magical weapons were obtained by Liu Jing from killing people and grabbing treasures, and some were given to him by Li Huayuan, the gambling master, before the bloody trial.
Liu Jing had no need for it himself, so he gave them all to his family.
"Jing'er..." The head of the family was silent for a while, and seemed to have made up his mind, "Since you have successfully established the foundation, I am ready to officially pass on the position of head of the family to you."
Sure enough, it came!
At this moment, Liu Jingdun felt very worried.
He can occasionally act careless and rogue in front of his master Li Huayuan.
But in front of this respected head of the family, Liu Jing was really not suitable to repeat his old tricks, so he could only be cautious.
It's not because Liu Jing is afraid of him, but because he is worried that if he accidentally gets angry with the head of the family and makes him burp in advance, he will be the head of the family even if he doesn't want to.
