Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather.

Chapter 864 The New Bride Enters the House

Illusion Moon Sect, Moon Gazing Mountain.

Yang Zhengshan handed two Turtle Breathing Pills to Master Jingshui, who held the small porcelain bottle with a rather complicated expression.

There was excitement, relief, and also a touch of helplessness and desolation.

Although the two Turtle Breathing Pills could allow him to enter a state of turtle breathing and extend his life by twenty years, this extension was merely a matter of prolonging his life.

If he can break through to the late Foundation Establishment stage during this period, he can gain another twenty or thirty years of lifespan. However, if he cannot break through, he will only sleep for twenty years.

"Thank you very much!" Master Jingshui said gratefully.

Yang Zhengshan waved his hand, "Senior, there's no need to be so polite with me!"

Yang Zhengshan still respected Master Jingshui. Just because Master Jingshui had given him guidance before, he should refine the Turtle Breathing Pill for Master Jingshui.

Unfortunately, that's all he could do; there was nothing else he could do.

Jing Shui composed herself, and her face regained its usual peaceful and calm demeanor.

"From now on, I'm entrusting Wangyue Mountain to you!"

Wangyue Mountain is the cultivation ground given to Yang Zhengshan by the Huanyue Sect, but there are other immortal cultivators from the Huanyue Sect on Wangyue Mountain. Previously, it was the Jingshui Zhenren who managed the affairs of Wangyue Mountain. Now that the Jingshui Zhenren has the Turtle Breathing Pill, he will inevitably enter the Turtle Breathing state, so the affairs of Wangyue Mountain should also be handed over to Yang Zhengshan.

Yang Zhengshan frowned. "Let's leave it to Liu Yue!"

“Liu Yue also needs to go into seclusion to establish her foundation!” said True Person Jing Shui.

“Then let’s leave it to Mei Qinghai,” Yang Zhengshan said again.

He had no time to care about Wangyue Mountain. He was too lazy to even care about the affairs of the Spirit Source Land, let alone Wangyue Mountain.

Master Jingshui thought for a moment, "Very well, let Qinghai take over Wangyue Mountain for now! I'll have them come over and have a chat!"

Liu Yue is the most powerful immortal cultivator in the Illusion Moon Sect besides True Person Mirror Water, and has already reached the ninth level of Qi Refining.

Mei Qinghai is the great-grandson of Master Jingshui. He is over sixty years old and has the cultivation level of the eighth level of Qi Refining.

"Alright!" Yang Zhengshan nodded.

Master Jingshui took out two communication talismans, made a hand seal, and the talismans spontaneously combusted without fire, turning into two streaks of light that flew away.

A communication talisman is a relatively common type of talisman. A first-tier communication talisman can transmit sound within a hundred miles, but can only convey a short sentence.

About the time it takes to drink a cup of tea later, a man and a woman arrived at the cliff one after the other.

The man appeared to be older, with some gray hair at his temples; he was Mei Qinghai.

The woman was beautiful and dressed in a moon-white robe, giving off a cold and aloof feeling. She was Liu Yue.

"Greetings to the two esteemed masters!"

"Hehe, have a seat!" Jing Shui Cihe said with a smile.

Yang Zhengshan took out two teacups and placed them on the stone table. Mei Qinghai immediately stepped forward to pour tea.

"Liu Yue, when do you plan to establish your foundation?" Jing Shui asked.

Liu Yue looked at Yang Zhengshan and said, "In another year or two, we might need two True Immortals to protect us!"

Yang Zhengshan thought for a moment and said, "Let me know in advance, and I'll protect you!"

The foundation-building process doesn't take long, only three to five months, which he can manage to find the time for.

"Thank you so much, Master!" Liu Yue's eyes lit up with joy.

Whether or not someone helps protect you during the foundation-building process makes a big difference; having someone protect you can save your life in critical moments.

Just like Liang Shengze back then, if Yang Zhengshan hadn't encountered him, he would surely have died.

The four then chatted about Wangyue Mountain. Mei Qinghai was naturally willing to take charge of Wangyue Mountain, even if it was only for a period of time, and he did not refuse.

After making some simple arrangements for Wangyue Mountain, Yang Zhengshan returned to Lingyuan Land.

Now that he has successfully refined the Turtle Breath Pill, he should start researching the Demon Essence Pill.

Yang Zhengshan sat in his study and took out a jade slip and two bamboo slips. These were alchemy tips he had obtained from the ruins of the array, and they all contained information about the Demon Essence Pill.

The Demon Essence Pill is a rather special kind of pill. It can be said that each Demon Essence Pill is different. The key to refining the Demon Essence Pill lies in how to formulate a suitable pill formula according to the attributes and quality of the Demon Essence Pill.

This requires the alchemist to have a very profound understanding of pharmacology, medicinal properties, and alchemy techniques.

While studying the contents of the jade slip and bamboo slip, Yang Zhengshan took out an earth-attribute demon core and carefully sensed it.

Just as Yang Zhengshan was researching the refining of the Demon Essence Pill, the marriage of Yang Qinting and Li Qianqian also began.

There were no obstacles to their marriage. Both the Yang and Li families were keen to facilitate the marriage, but Xuanqing Sect chose to ignore them.

The wedding process was quick, and the ceremony was completed in less than two months.

Li Qianqian married into the Yang family as the youngest daughter of the Li family. Although she would still be a disciple of the Xuanqing Sect, she was more of a member of the Yang family.

As for Yang Qinting's departure from the Xuanqing Sect, nobody cared.

He's just an inner disciple; it's not worth the Xuanqing Sect's higher-ups negotiating with the Yang family over him.

Therefore, you can say that Yang Qinting was a disciple of the Xuanqing Sect, or you can say that he was not.

Yang Qinting's wedding was held in Yangjia Town. It was a very lively event. Eleven families from three clans sent congratulatory gifts, even if they were just tokens.

The morning after the wedding, Yang Qinting brought Li Qianqian to the back hall of the Yang family compound, where they met An Yuxing, who was in charge of guarding Yangjia Town.

"Qin Ting greets Elder An!"

An Yuxing casually sat down in a chair and said with a smile, "The token is right there. You can go back now! But once you're back, you can't just come out whenever you want!"

Yang Qinting's jade token had already been taken back, and now he could no longer freely enter and leave the Spirit Source Land. If he wanted to go back, he would have to get the jade token from An Yuxing.

As for the future, it's not that Yang Qinting can't come out at will, but that Li Qianqian can't come and go as she pleases.

After all, Li Qianqian had just entered and had not yet gained the trust of the Spirit Source Land. This was not directed at Li Qianqian, but rather the same treatment was given to everyone who moved to the Spirit Source Land.

Once you enter the Spirit Source Land, you cannot leave for a short period of time. Only after you have completely integrated into the Spirit Source Land and become attached to it will you have the opportunity to leave.

Currently, Ziwei Tower has very strict control over entry and exit from the Spirit Source Land. In fact, most people who enter the Spirit Source Land never leave again.

Currently, there are not many people from Lingyuan Land outside. There are two hundred soldiers in Yangjia Town, less than one hundred in the Secret Martial Guard, and several dozen in Shenmu Island and Da'an. The rest are just a few individuals, such as Yang Jizhen and Yang Cheng'an.

Ancient remnant formations are not included in the calculation.

Yang Qinting looked at Li Qianqian and said, "We understand!"

He had previously revealed some information about the Spirit Source Land to Li Qianqian. Although he was vague about it, he made the main points clear, and Li Qianqian had already agreed.

At this moment, Li Qianqian was very curious about the home that Yang Qinting mentioned and really wanted to see what kind of place it was.

“Then let’s go!” An Yuxing pointed to the token placed beside him.

Yang Qinting bowed slightly, took Li Qianqian's hand, picked up the jade token and channeled his true essence into it. The next moment, the two of them disappeared.

Li Qianqian felt a blur before her eyes and found herself in a grand hall.

A platform made of lapis lazuli, with massive vermilion pillars carved with intertwined branches, supports the dome. The ground is decorated with shallow reliefs of arrays, their subtle light shimmering like stars falling onto a plate.

Twelve bronze lamps stand on two walls, and where the lamplight falls, light and shadow move across the "Clouds and Cranes Paying Homage to the Origin" mural, with the cranes flapping their wings as if about to break out of the painting.

Two rows of armored soldiers stood against the wall, scrutinizing her with cold eyes.

Li Qianqian's heart trembled slightly, and she immediately withdrew her scrutinizing gaze.

Yang Qinting noticed her nervousness, squeezed her hand, and smiled, "It's alright!"

"Mm!" Li Qianqian nodded, still feeling quite uneasy. After all, she had left the sect where she had lived since childhood and come to an unfamiliar environment. Even though she trusted Yang Qinting, she was still anxious. "Young Master Qinting!"

At this moment, a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties came up and greeted Yang Qinting.

"Elder Yu!" Yang Qinting quickly bowed.

The "Old Yu" he was referring to was none other than Yu Tonghai.

Yu Tonghai is now the deputy head of Tianliang Tower, in charge of a portion of the garrison. His daily task is to oversee the reception hall.

"Hehe, this must be Madam Li!"

"Greetings, Elder Yu!" Li Qianqian also greeted him.

Yu Tonghai nodded slightly. "Let's register first and get our ID cards!"

The Reception Hall was not a place for formalities, so Yu Tonghai simply greeted him without saying anything more.

Yang Qinting led Li Qianqian to register and receive her identity card in the Spirit Origin Land, which was similar to an ID card.

They soon left the main hall, and Yang Qinting borrowed a red cloud carriage to take Li Qianqian to a villa on the west bank of the Ling River.

Throughout the journey, Li Qianqian kept taking in the scenery around her.

The city, the pavilions, the streets, the rivers, and the people who live here.

how to say?

Judging by the size of the city alone, the current Jade Capital City is not as good as the Jade City of the Xuanqing Sect. In terms of architecture, the buildings in Jade Capital City are not particularly magnificent or splendid, except for the newly built Twelve Towers which are slightly more magnificent.

However, Li Qianqian still felt very comfortable because she found that everyone here was relaxed. There was neither the seriousness of the sect nor the hustle and bustle of Qingyu City. Everything seemed orderly and comfortable.

Yang Qinting introduced the city's buildings to her. In fact, he didn't know much about Yujing City, so he just gave her a general overview.

Soon, they crossed the Spirit River and arrived at the villa.

"Father, mother!"

When they stepped off the carriage, Yang Chengan and Zhou Yunxian were already outside the door.

When a new bride enters the family, she naturally has to pay her respects to her elders. Although the wedding was a lively affair, not many members of the Yang family actually attended; only Yang Cheng'an and Zhou Yunxian, the parents, were present to help with the arrangements.

No one else went.

It wasn't that Yang Qinting and Li Qianqian were being deliberately neglected; it was just that getting in and out of the Spirit Source Land was too inconvenient.

Moreover, people in the land of spiritual origin do not like to hold extravagant weddings.

"Daughter-in-law greets Father and Mother!"

"Hehe, no need for formalities. Let's go. Your grandparents are still waiting at home. Don't keep them waiting too long!"

Zhou Yunxian smiled gently and took Li Qianqian's hand, and then the group entered the villa.

This villa belongs to Yang Mingzhao. Yang Cheng'an is not qualified to live here. He is a junior and can only live in the former Changshou City.

Entering the courtyard, we arrived at the main hall.

Yang Mingzhao and Zhu Shi were already waiting.

"Grandson (granddaughter-in-law) greets grandparents!"

The two exchanged greetings, and Yang Mingzhao looked at Yang Qinting, "Good lad, after twenty years away from home, you've finally managed to trick me into bringing back a granddaughter-in-law, haha~~"

"Can't you speak properly? What do you mean by lying?" Madam Zhu looked at Yang Mingzhao with some dissatisfaction.

Yang Mingzhao sat lazily in the armchair and casually said, "Something like that!"

Over the years, Yang Mingzhao has been living a very carefree life in the Spirit Source Land. He used to be in charge of the Law Enforcement Hall, and now he is in charge of Kaiyang Tower, mainly responsible for the order and security of the Spirit Source Land.

However, the Lingyuan region has always been well-governed, so the Law Enforcement Hall is a relatively quiet government office.

Yang Mingzhao didn't have much official business to handle on a daily basis, nor did he learn any martial arts or other skills. Apart from cultivating, he had almost nothing to do.

So he went hunting in the mountains, fishing by the river, or tending to flowers and plants, living a more comfortable life than Yang Zhengshan.

"Father, Qinting and Qianqian's assignments haven't been arranged yet!" Yang Chengan reminded him.

Having arrived at the land of spiritual energy, the two naturally needed to find something to do.

Having a job not only provides you with a position and salary, but more importantly, it allows you to learn the corresponding skills.

In the Spirit Source Land, everyone has some skill; even those who farm are spiritual plant growers, not ordinary farmers.

"Don't worry, I've already made arrangements for them. Both of them are skilled at cultivating medicinal herbs. I've already spoken with your uncle, and they'll go to the Herb Garden. There are many herbs there that need someone to take care of them!" Yang Cheng'an said.

There are many plantations in the land of spiritual energy, including medicinal herb gardens, tea gardens, orchards, and special spiritual tree gardens, each of which needs to be cared for.

The Herb Garden is quite special; it contains a large number of medicinal herbs, many of which were assigned by Yang Zhengshan.

Planting herbs at the Qicao Garden is certainly not a privilege, but it's still a good option.

Cultivating spiritual herbs is also a technical skill, especially in spiritual lands, where its importance is not much less than that of alchemy, artifacts, and talismans.

"Your accommodations have been arranged, right next to the Qicao Garden. I've seen it myself; it's a small courtyard with two sections, perfect for you two young couples!" Yang Mingzhao said proudly.

"Thank you, Grandfather!" Yang Qinting said.

"It's just a small thing!"

Yang Mingzhao stood up and said, "Let's go, let's take them to meet the other elders!"

Yang Qinting and Li Qianqian were very busy that day, busy meeting their elders.

Starting with Yang Mingcheng, Yang Mingzhi, and Yang Minghao, and continuing with Yang Chengye, Yang Chengmao, and others, this journey took more than four hours.

But that's not all; they only met the elders of their own family and the elders of their maternal family.

Zhou Yunxian came from the Zhou family, so naturally they had to go to the Zhou family to get acquainted with her, as well as the Jiang family, the Liang family, and so on.

The rest are Yang Qinting's siblings and cousins, which number even more, but they can gradually get to know these relatives later.

In the small courtyard outside the Garden of Rare Herbs.

Looking at the tidy courtyard, Li Qianqian's face was full of a happy smile.

"What's wrong? Why are you so happy?" Yang Qinting asked, hugging her waist from behind.

"Hehe, this place is even better than I imagined!" Li Qianqian said.

"Is it good? What's so good about it? Aren't they all pretty much the same?" Yang Qinting asked, somewhat puzzled.

Li Qianqian gazed at the rare herb garden not far away, "Of course it's different, it's much more peaceful here!"

Although she had only been in the Land of Spiritual Origin for a few days, she had already felt the peaceful atmosphere here.

Neither the Li family nor the Xuanqing Sect has ever enjoyed such peace.

Within the Li family, apart from her parents, she felt no warmth whatsoever. Even with her own brothers, she could sense a distance between them.

Not to mention within the Xuanqing Sect, Bai Yiyi was the only person she considered a friend.

In contrast, the Land of Spirits is filled with a reassuring tranquility.

Although there is competition, it is not intense. The entire Spirit Source Land is like a large family, and the vast majority of people are kind to other people and things.

Of course, there are a few bad apples, but those few bad apples cannot affect the overall environment.
