Family Cultivation: Evergreen of the Song Family

After being busy for such a long time, Song Changsheng finally had the chance to empty his mind and have a good rest. He lay on the couch completely relaxed, looking at the ceiling with empty eyes, and began to think about the future.

Currently, the Song family is in a stage of rapid development. Not only is their small business booming, but there is also a small world that is slowly being developed in the vast jungle. So they don't need to worry about resources in the short term.

There is harmony inside, everyone is happy, and outside, everything is calm. The remnants of the Blood Demon Cult and the Haoran Alliance, who used to be restless, have finally been able to stay quiet for a while.

Throughout the Song family's 500-year history, there has never been such a comfortable development environment.

In the current Da Qi cultivation world, there are barely six Purple Mansion forces, including the half-dead Rong family. From the perspective of high-end combat power, they are on par with the fourth-ranked Huansha Sect.

But the basic strength is incomparable and it will take some time to settle.

However, as long as he can maintain his current development attitude, Song Changsheng estimates that it will only take 20 to 30 years to completely surpass the Huansha Sect.

This development speed can be described as amazing.

But Song Changsheng still felt a little uneasy.

Perhaps because of his more active mind, he often thinks more than other people. The current tranquility in the Da Qi cultivation world is not without price.

The Blood Demon Cult and the Haoran Alliance are both recuperating and may make a comeback at any time. When that happens, the Song family will certainly be the first to bear the brunt. It is obvious that the current strength of the Song family is not enough to form a sufficient deterrent.

We still need to speed up and improve our strength as much as possible during this golden period.

"It's time to improve my cultivation." Song Changsheng murmured softly.

His cultivation level had improved too quickly in recent years, so he deliberately slowed down the pace of practice to focus on consolidating his foundation. But now he feels that he can move forward a little bit. After all, this world is still a game between the strong, and cultivation is the bottom line.

Just when Song Changsheng was preparing to go into seclusion, Song Luyun came to him with a serious face.

"Clan leader."

"Aunt is here, please sit down."

Looking at her solemn expression, Song Changsheng couldn't help but ask in confusion: "What's wrong? Is the business negotiation with Tianxiaomen not going well?"

Song Luyun shook her head slightly and said, "We gave up some of the profits, and Tianxiaomen also agreed very readily. The agreement has been signed, and they want 300 jars every year."

"Wouldn't that be nice?"

Hearing her say this, Song Changsheng couldn't help but feel even more confused. According to his pricing, one jar was sold for four hundred spirit stones, and three hundred jars would be one hundred and twenty thousand low-grade spirit stones. Although he didn't know how much profit Song Luyun gave up, it would definitely not be less than one hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones.

This is considered a large order, so why does Song Luyun still look so serious?

Song Luyun sighed and said, "Alas, it was originally very good, but just now, news came from Tianxiao Sect that Zhang Sheng, the young master of Tianxiao Sect, who came to the family to contact us, disappeared on his way back."

Hearing this, Song Changsheng was shocked. The disappearance of the young master of the Jindan Sect was no small matter, especially since it was related to the Song family.

"Missing? How could a living person suddenly disappear? Has the Tianxiao Sect confirmed the approximate location of the missing person?"

Song Luyun shook her head again and said, "It's not confirmed. Zhang Sheng left Cangmang Peak half a month ago and took away the three hundred jars of [Cold Pool Dew] this year.

Just two days ago, when Tianxiaomen tried to contact Zhang Sheng, they found that they could not get through. However, there was no abnormality in the soul lamp, so they concluded that he was missing rather than dead. "

"We can't contact him, so what about his protector? As the young master of a Jindan sect, it's impossible for him to be traveling outside without even a protector, right?" Song Changsheng frowned.

"There was a protector in the Purple Mansion Stage, but we couldn't contact him. The two people disappeared into thin air."

“With a Purple Mansion cultivator as a protector, it is impossible that no news would get out even if there was a sudden attack, not to mention that both of them are still alive.

What does the message from Tianxiao Sect mean? He won't suspect that we did it, right? " Song Changsheng's face looked a little ugly. If he was blamed for this, someone would die.

What he said was not without basis.

After all, the Song family knew the whereabouts of Zhang Sheng and his group best, and the incident happened so recently that it was possible that the incident happened within the area controlled by the Song family. In this case, it would be difficult for the Song family not to be suspected.

Although the Song family had no motive to do so, sometimes there is no need for motive to put the blame on someone; they just need a reason they believe in.

"Although Tianxiaomen didn't express this intention directly, they asked us to cooperate in finding Zhang Sheng's whereabouts, and said that they would send someone to hand over to us in the near future."

"Handover? Haha, it's more like an interrogation. After all, he still suspects us, but he just doesn't say it." Song Changsheng's face was as gloomy as ink. For the Song family, this was truly an unexpected disaster.

I delivered the goods for a year and just received a deposit. Now the person is gone. Not only do I not necessarily get the balance, but I am also treated as a suspect. This is more unfair than Dou E.

"What the hell is going on?" Song Changsheng cursed in frustration. He wandered around the room for a while, and finally looked at Song Luyun and said, "Notify Uncle Wu and ask him to mobilize people to search for him in Lingzhou and Yangzhou.

Regardless of whether he is dead or alive, we must give an explanation to Tianxiaomen, or at least clear our suspicion.

By the way, send another message to Qingshi and tell him that it takes a thousand days to train an army and only a moment to deploy it. Now is the time to test his achievements over the years. Ask him to immediately mobilize all his spies to collect information on Zhang Sheng and his group's whereabouts after they left Cangmang Peak."

"As ordered."

Song Luyun quickly agreed. After hearing his words, he finally found his backbone and hurried down to make arrangements.

Song Changsheng lay down on the couch again, looking at the ceiling. His mood was completely different from before. However, after experiencing the initial anxiety and shock, he had calmed down and was not too anxious.

Not to mention that Zhang Sheng is not dead yet. Even if he is dead, as long as the Song family has not done this thing and the Song family stands on this point, it will not have much impact.

As long as there is no solid evidence, the Tianxiao Sect will not rashly do anything to the Song family. After all, this is the Da Qi cultivation world, not their Dayu.

The worst outcome would be the loss of a partner, but the Song Group is no longer what it used to be. If it's gone, it's gone. We can still find other people to cooperate with. We don't have to rely on them.

However, we still have to find the right people and show a problem-solving attitude. In addition, we can also examine the results of Fengyu Palace's development over the years.

So many spirit stones have been invested in a year, and not long ago, he just took away 200,000 low-grade spirit stones from Song Changsheng. This investment is not ordinary, and people have to see some results.

Following Song Changsheng's order, Ling and Yang states suddenly became abuzz, and began to search for the whereabouts of Zhang Sheng. Song Qingshi also ordered all his spies to report back all the information about Zhang Sheng.

In fact, it's not just Lingzhou and Yangzhou. Luoxia City, Jinwu Sect, Tianmai Sect, Tianjian Sect and other forces have also mobilized people to search within their respective spheres of control, the only difference is the intensity of the effort.

For him alone, most of the Da Qi cultivation world has been mobilized. This is really a great show. This is not to say that Tian Xiao Sect is so powerful that it can command the entire Da Qi. It is simply that Tian Xiao Sect took the initiative to find him and do him a favor. Anyway, the upper level only needs to talk, and the people below will naturally complete the task of finding people.

The search lasted for three days and two nights. Countless flying swords sent messages back to Fengyu Palace from all directions. After Song Qingshi screened and sorted the information overnight, he found Song Changsheng with a booklet.

"Clan leader, I think you need to take a look at this." Song Qingshi handed the booklet with both hands and said respectfully.

Song Changsheng took it and glanced at it briefly. He looked at Song Qingshi in surprise and asked, "Is this the information sent back by the spies outside? Are they confirmed to be reliable?"

"The above information has been verified repeatedly, and the source of the information is also marked, so the accuracy should be guaranteed."

Song Changsheng nodded slightly. The booklet in his hand recorded nothing but the whereabouts of Zhang Sheng and others after they left Cangmang Peak. He remembered exactly when and where they passed by.

If Song Qingshi hadn't said that he had compiled this based on the information sent back by his spies, he would have suspected that someone had been sent to deliberately follow them.

It's no wonder he thought so, because the record was so detailed.

In fact, it is not surprising that such an effect can be achieved. The other party took the route of Lingzhou-Yangzhou-Xiangzhou-Xuzhou-Dayu Cultivation World.

The two states of Lingyang happen to be the places where the Fengyu Palace’s intelligence network is most complete.

According to the principles set by Fengyu Palace, people with special identities like Zhang Sheng need special care.

Therefore, when Zhang Sheng and his party were traveling in Ling and Yang states, there were actually many pairs of eyes staring at them from behind.

"Well, since someone saw Zhang Sheng and his group in Xiangzhou, it has nothing to do with us. You go and ask the foreign affairs elder to report this news to Tianxiaomen, and then concentrate the forces of Xiangzhou to look for them.

It doesn't matter whether you can find it or not, as long as you show your attitude. "Song Changsheng said in a relaxed tone.

Although it is still unclear where Zhang Sheng disappeared, it is certain that he has left the Song family's sphere of influence.

Entered into the Rong family's sphere of influence.

However, after experiencing the previous disastrous defeat, the Rong family has now closed the mountain gate and turned a deaf ear to what is happening outside.

In today's Xiangzhou, except for the Wang family of Qingyuan Mountain who defected to the Song family long ago, most of it is under the control of Tianjian Sect.

It can be said that the second half of the route taken by Zhang Sheng and his companions, namely Xiangzhou and Xuzhou, are almost all the sphere of influence of the Tianjian Sect, and the disappearances are most likely in these two states.

"Now it's the turn of the Tianjian Sect to have a headache." Song Changsheng seemed to be gloating. After all, it would be better for me to die than for my fellow Taoist to die. This is a hot potato that he should throw away as soon as possible.

"Where did these news come from? They sound so detailed and convincing." Song Changsheng asked, pointing to the news that looked like gossip on the back pages of the booklet.

"This is the latest news from the Dayu Cultivation World stronghold. It is well known to everyone and is closely related to Zhang Sheng. I think it is still valuable, so I stayed here."

"Well done. The money of 200,000 low-grade spirit stones was not wasted." Song Changsheng praised generously.

The fact that Fengyu Palace could develop to this point in such a short period of time was beyond his expectations, and Song Qingshi should be credited with the greatest contribution.

"Then I will take my leave first."

Song Qingshi bowed and took his leave, but soon returned.

Looking at Song Qingshi who had returned, Song Changsheng asked with some confusion: "What else?"

"Clan leader, I just received news from the external affairs elder that the people from Tianxiao Sect have already arrived outside the mountain, and the general affairs elder has sent people to contact them."

"They're here so soon." Song Changsheng frowned slightly. He originally thought that he wouldn't have to deal with these people, but he didn't expect them to come so soon.

He stood up and said, "Let's go and meet them."

The two went straight down the mountain, and when they arrived they found that Song Luzhou had already come into contact with the people from Tianxiao Sect.

Seeing this situation, Song Changsheng's eyes rolled, he stopped temporarily, and observed in the dark.

A total of five people came from Tianxiao Sect this time, including two Purple Mansion cultivators, one in the late Purple Mansion stage and one in the middle Purple Mansion stage, and three cultivators who had reached the great perfection of foundation building.

The leader was a young monk wearing a red robe, with a pretty face and a somewhat feminine look.

Considering the information he had just read, Song Changsheng was able to confirm that this person was Feng Lan, the eldest disciple of Tianxiao Sect's Zhaoming Zhenren, and also Zhang Sheng's senior brother.

He raised his orchid finger and said to Song Luzhou in a condescending tone: "Where is your clan leader? Why didn't you come out to greet us?"

Hearing this, Song Luzhou frowned slightly, but considering the Tianxiao Sect behind him, he still said politely: "I have sent someone to inform the clan leader. Please come up the mountain to have a chat."

Feng Lan glanced at him sideways and said sarcastically, "There's no need to go up the mountain. I'm afraid I'll survive even if I go up."

In one sentence, it was full of irony, and everyone in the Song family looked unhappy.

Song Luzhou took a step forward and said in a deep voice, "What do you mean by that, Fellow Daoist Feng?"

"Oh, pretending to be ignorant when knowing the truth, isn't this obvious? My dear junior fellow apprentice went up the mountain once, and he disappeared in the blink of an eye. I dare not repeat the same mistake."

"Our clan deeply regrets that Fellow Daoist Zhang has lost contact, but Fellow Daoist Feng should have a basis for what he said. Our clan has no reason to harm him."

Feng Lan sneered and said, "Whether there is a reason or not, you know it in your hearts. I advise you to be honest and hand over my good junior brother, otherwise..."

"What else do you want?"

Song Changsheng came from the air, looking down at them with a cold look on his face.

Although he was only in the middle stage of Purple Mansion cultivation, he completely suppressed the two Purple Mansion cultivators of Tianxiao Sect in terms of momentum.

Feng Lan's eyes suddenly showed a look of surprise...
