Cultivating Immortality Begins with Rejuvenation.

Chapter 88 Practice Plan
In the letter Li Ji'an sent to the Yan family, he had considered everything carefully and only asked the Yan family to keep their promise to take care of their young son. He said that he himself had no hope in the future and would leave his hometown and never see them again in this life.

When Yan Qingwan saw the eight-year-old Li Ji'an for the first time today, she actually believed what the youngest son said in the letter, because the familiarity between his eyebrows and eyes could not be deceived.

The reason for asking that question is just to deceive yourself.

And at this moment, she wasn't sure what she was thinking.

"To answer Aunt, Dad said that when I was born, Mom ascended to the immortal realm. I have never seen Mom, but I think she must be as beautiful as Aunt."

"..."

Yan Qingwan was stunned for a moment, and only came to her senses after a moment. Her eyes gradually became moist, and she hugged Li Ji'an tightly in her arms again: "Poor Fan'er, aunt will definitely treat you well in the future."

Without saying anything more, he wrapped Li Ji'an with his magical power, slowly flew high into the sky, and looked around: "Brother Li, don't worry, Qingwan will treat Fan'er well."
-
After nine years of absence, Li Ji'an returned to the Yan family and actually felt a sense of belonging.

In the world of cultivation, people have longer lifespans, stronger spirits, and better memories. In nine years, neither people nor things change much.

Yan Qingwan brought Li Ji'an directly to the clan council hall.

"This is Chang'an's child... They look alike, really alike." The head of the family, Yan Zongsheng, squatted down and gently stroked Li Ji'an's head, with a hint of relief in his eyes.

He still remembered the scene nine years ago vividly. Li Ji'an not only did not feel any resentment about being expelled from the family, but instead repaid his evil with kindness and gave him the first-level alchemy inheritance that he had carefully compiled for twenty years.

Especially after Yan Qingwan learned about this four years later, her explanation and self-affirmation made him realize that he was really wrong.

"Come, let grandpa hug you. From now on, just stay in the Yan family with peace of mind. This is your home." Yan Zongsheng now had the opportunity to make amends, and his eyes were full of kindness when he looked at Li Ji'an.

As he spoke, he took out the pre-prepared "Li Family Alchemy Biography" and handed it to Li Ji'an. "This is the alchemy legacy your father has devoted his entire life to. Today it is finally returned to its rightful owner. Your father had a great talent for alchemy, but unfortunately his spiritual roots were not strong enough to achieve success. Before your spiritual roots grow, study hard. If you can develop a good fire spiritual root in the future, perhaps you can help your father fulfill his long-cherished wish."

"Hey, I think, forget about the alchemy. Chang'an's spiritual roots are too poor, and how much better can his son's spiritual roots be? However, I just touched it, and this kid has good roots. He is a good candidate for body refining, and he will practice body refining with me in the future." Yan Hongsheng interrupted him directly.

Yan Kongyi glared at Yan Hongsheng with disdain: "Body training, body training, you only know how to do those brainless things, reckless man! This brat has a full front vestibule, a protruding back, and bright eyes. I'm afraid his comprehension is not bad. In the future, he will study talismans with me in depth. I guarantee that when the time comes, he will shock that old man Chang'an."

Yan Zongsheng coughed lightly and said, "Stop arguing. Qingwan, let's test Xiaofan's potential first."

Yan Qingwan shook her head: "Brother Li has already given him the Yangyuan Pill. I can sense that his Dantian has been nourished. I can't predict his potential based on his origin."

"Oh." Yan Zongsheng nodded.

Then he smiled and said, "Forget it. It doesn't matter whether it's good or bad. We'll talk about it in seven years. If his fire spiritual roots are good, let him inherit his father's legacy, and you can teach him how to make pills."

"If his fire spirit root is weak but his comprehension is good, let the Great Elder guide him in making talismans."

"If all else fails, let Old Seven take him through physical training."

"Even if... he can't even practice physical training, it doesn't matter. Just stay with me and I'll teach him about the mundane affairs of the clan."

In a blink of an eye, he had almost planned all of Li Ji'an's future development.

Even though Li Ji'an knew them in his previous life and knew that they were not ungrateful people, he was still touched at this moment.

Not only in the world of cultivation, but also in the secular world before, and even in the modern times, the most critical and important thing in everyone's life is actually life planning. Children or teenagers have little experience, little knowledge, and a narrow vision. They cannot correctly understand the logic of social operation, and often have unclear understanding of their own resources and abilities, which leads to being ambitious or overly negative, and they will take many detours or even wrong paths in their lives.

Although this situation is the most common, after all, there are not many elders who are truly knowledgeable, capable and can convince children, so there are a lot of chicken soup for the soul to appease children. However, no matter what is said, the sooner people can take the right path and get their lives on the right track, the sooner they can do so. Taking the wrong path or taking a detour will bring regret and suffering.

Li Ji'an has the power of "rejuvenation". If he takes the wrong path or a detour, he can correct it in the next life and start over. He can accumulate experience and knowledge for himself and guide himself, but ordinary people do not have this opportunity.

He could better understand the significance of Yan Zongsheng's few short words to an ordinary person.

The only shortcoming is that the plan lacks the path that Li Ji'an planned for himself in this life.

This was not only due to Li Ji'an's poor spiritual roots and talent in his previous life, which made everyone look down on him, but also due to his status as the head of the family and his vision. Afterwards, Yan Qingwan, against all odds, took Li Ji'an back to live in her new house.

Because he was promoted to the foundation-building stage, his daily practice required higher spiritual energy, and the previous courtyard could no longer meet the requirements.

Now the new house is located in the core position of Yan family's spiritual vein.

This place used to be the dojo of the old ancestor who had established his foundation. Now, for the sake of the newcomers in the clan, he voluntarily gave it up and moved to a slightly more secluded place.

Feeling the abundant spiritual energy of the real second-level spiritual vein dojo, Li Ji'an was pleasantly surprised.

"In this way, perhaps I can approach the upper limit of my natural spiritual root talent in this lifetime!"

Within a few days, the news that the descendants of the former Li Keqing had joined the family spread throughout the family.

Li Ji'an was also arranged to enter the clan courtyard.

In addition to teaching literacy, the clan academy also provides guidance on meridian cultivation, analysis of cultivation, the customs and practices of this world, and some precautions in the cultivation world. Of course, ideological education is also of paramount importance, mostly to cultivate family cohesion and loyalty!

This day was Li Ji'an's first day in the clan hall.

The old man on the stage is an elder of the clan. He is quite old and his eyes are a little blurry. He is explaining the precautions to take in the future cultivation world.

"The world of cultivation is ever-changing and unpredictable, and people's hearts are complicated. Don't be too close to others when you are on the road, and don't be too open with your heart when you make friends. When you encounter injustice on the road, first reflect on your own cultivation. When you go out, you must hide your shortcomings, and show seven out of ten of your abilities. When you encounter danger with others, retreat behind others, so that your fellow Taoists can have the advantage first..."

"Li Fan?" Suddenly, Li Ji'an felt someone kicking his stool from behind.

"Hmm?" Li Ji'an turned around and looked at him calmly.

"My dad said he and your dad are brothers."

Li Ji'an understood instantly and looked carefully at the skinny, monkey-like boy in front of him again.

When Zhang Tiezhu left the clan nine years ago, his youngest son Yan Qing was just one year old. Now, he is exactly ten years old.

He also gave Yan Qing a fine marrow cleansing pill.

"My name is Yan Qing. We can be brothers in the future."

"Snap~" Suddenly, the sound of a ruler hitting the stage was heard, and Yan Qing's face changed instantly.

"I have told you many times that making noise is prohibited in the classroom. You two, stand up and hold out your hands. No one can intercede for you this time." The old man strode over.

Yan Qing's face suddenly turned dejected. He gritted his teeth and stretched out his hand, terrified of the old man's ruler.

Li Ji'an smiled bitterly, stood up calmly, and stretched out his hand, but he didn't feel anything, just slapped his palm.

"You..." However, the old man walked to Li Ji'an and was about to hit him, but after taking a closer look, he retracted the ruler.

"I'll let you off this time, but don't make noise in class next time. Do you understand?"

"Thank you, sir. I will remember this." Li Ji'an thanked him respectfully.

"Snap!" Yan Qing was about to rejoice, thinking that he could escape the disaster, but the ruler hit his palm hard.

"Ah! I...why can he not hit me?" Yan Qing was in so much pain that tears were about to come out, and she subconsciously asked.

The old man rolled his eyes at him: Ancestor Qingwan has personally instructed us to do this, who dares to fight?
