Family Immortality: I ascend to immortality through my offspring

As soon as Chen Yaodong reported the news of the breakthrough to the Immortal Gate, people related to Daqian learned about it immediately.

The news of the new foundation building spread quickly to the Yunwu County area.

In Yunwu County, in an old house of the Zheng Mansion.

Zheng Renhai, the patriarch of the contemporary Zheng Immortal Clan, and Zheng Aolong, the head of the family, came to meet the ancestor of the family "Zheng Xuanzong" as soon as they received the news.

Zheng Xuanzong is a vigorous old man.

He looks even younger than Zheng Renhai, but his actual age is over 180 years old.

If the Zheng Immortal Clan is the overlord of Yunwu County, then Zheng Xuanzong is the local emperor of Yunwu County.

Zheng Xuanzong was initially as if he was facing a great enemy, but after learning that the person who broke through was from the Immortal Gate, his expression relaxed, and he even felt a little gloating.

"The Qinghe Chen family is blessed to have a foundation-building disciple. Unfortunately, Chen Yaodong has already joined the Immortal Sect. Even if the royal family wants to win him over, they don't have the courage to poach him."

Zheng Aolong was surprised: "What does the ancestor mean by this?"

"From the moment they enter the Immortal Sect, their status as disciples of the Immortal Sect takes precedence over all family backgrounds and origins. This is the iron law of the Immortal Sect and cannot be violated. If a disciple insists on betraying his family, his cultivation will be abolished at the least, and the whole family will be wiped out at the worst."

Speaking of this, Zheng Xuanzong couldn't help laughing: "The Chen family thought that by offering a foundation-building disciple, they could be on an equal footing with our Zheng family. Little did they know that all this would end up making wedding clothes for the Immortal Sect."

Zheng Renhai also widened his eyes: "Why haven't we heard of this iron law of the Immortal Sect?"

He originally thought that it was an extremely glorious thing to send his children to the Immortal Sect, and it could be a good thing to make chickens and eggs.

But now it seems like a pit.

The Immortal Sect took away the geniuses of various clans, and they also forcibly separated these geniuses from their original families.

Isn't this a typical case of robbing the poor to help the rich?

Zheng Xuanzong snorted coldly when he heard this stupid question.

"Unless you reach the Foundation Establishment stage, you don't even have the qualifications to touch the Iron Law of the Immortal Sect? Even if you know it, why do you tell others such news for no reason, especially those small clans that have never produced Foundation Establishment cultivators."

Hearing this, Zheng Aolong and Zheng Renhai were silent.

That's true.

According to the ancestor's words, those who don't know the Iron Law of the Immortal Sect are basically the newly promoted Qi-training Immortal Clan.

If they let their families have Foundation Establishment cultivators, it is equivalent to creating another Foundation Establishment Immortal Clan, which will only make more people share the benefits. Isn't this just adding trouble to their own family?

Reality is that interests are king.

Often the more difficult it is for people to climb to a higher place, the more they hope to block the way for those who come later.

If they don't do this, their own efforts will depreciate sooner or later.

"However, the Qinghe Chen family does have an extra layer of protection. At least ordinary foundation-building immortals dare not touch them. After all, the immortal sect does not forbid disciples to avenge their family."

"You don't have to be too afraid of the Chen family, and don't make enemies. Since they are in Qinghe County, just give Qinghe County to them. The court will issue an order to handle this matter. You can also explain to your subordinates that the Chen family will be exempted from tribute from now on."

Zheng Renhai nodded: "I will obey the order of the ancestor!"

Zheng Xuanzong looked at Zheng Aolong again and said: "Although you have four spiritual roots, you have spiritual You are a person of the Zheng family. You are qualified to join the immortal sect and have a better future. But if I decide to keep you at home, you won't complain, right? "

Zheng Aolong shook his head and said, "I have received the favor of my family, so I should give everything for the family. If the iron law of the immortal sect cannot protect the family, I might as well die."

Zheng Xuanzong laughed, "Well, you are worthy of being a son of my Zheng family. Don't worry, your grandfather has made preparations for you to build your foundation."

"When you break through the foundation, it will be the time for our family to settle accounts with the villains!"

...

Qinghe County, Chen Mansion.

On this day, an envoy from the court came to the mansion.

Liu County Magistrate followed behind him, and his attitude was different from usual, becoming flattering.

The envoy read out the imperial edict of ennobling in public.

This is an edict of ennobling a marquis, ennobling the Chen family as the hereditary "Qinghe Marquis", and the fiefdom is Qinghe County.

At the same time, the power to appoint and dismiss the magistrate of Qinghe County was also granted.

Every three years, a clan member can be nominated to directly obtain the status of Juren.

This can explain the change in the attitude of County Magistrate Liu.

When the Chen family heard the news, they were naturally overjoyed and thanked the emperor for his great grace on the spot.

The envoy of the court had just left.

The envoy of the Zheng family arrived, and the visitor was the head of the fourth branch of the Zheng family, Mr. Zheng Si.

He made a golden mouth and exempted the Chen family from paying tribute.

But the tributes of the other three immortal families still had to be handed over to the Zheng family as usual.

However, such a statement was enough to show that the Zheng family was openly

Chen Qishan personally greeted him and prepared a feast.

After all these, he even lost a few spiritual stones.

But compared to the happy event of a foundation-building cultivator in his family, this seemed to be nothing.

The whole Chen family was waiting for Chen Yaodong to come back in style.

...

This wait lasted for more than a month.

They didn't even receive a reply from Chen Yaodong, which immediately made the whole Chen family feel uneasy.

No matter how much they delayed, they had to report to the family that they were safe after such a long time.

Chen Qishan understood the personality of his sixth son.

He was not an ungrateful person.

Perhaps, there were some things they didn't know about this.

The old man immediately went out to inquire about the news and found his biggest connection, General Meng, the foundation-building cultivator of the Anxi Army.

He was full of joy when he left, but his face was gloomy when he came back.

Chen Jing'an and Uncle Chen Er asked about what happened, and the old man told them everything about the "Iron Law of the Immortal Sect".

This immediately stunned the uncle and nephew.

So... they were calculated by the high and mighty Immortal Sect?

They sacrificed all their lives to offer up the foundation-building cultivator, but in the end, the cultivator's life belonged to the Immortal Sect, and they, the family members, could only pick up the scraps that others didn't want?

Not long ago, they had imagined that if Uncle Chen Liu broke through the foundation-building realm, they would be able to touch the wealth of the foundation-building immortal clan.

As a result, it was all gone.

This was destined to be a difficult night.

The old man, who didn't drink on weekdays, got drunk that night!

He crushed the bottle with one hand, blood oozing from his palm, and put his palm on Chen Jing'an's shoulder, with fatigue and unwillingness in his tone, but also firmness.

"Jing'an, you have to fight for your grandfather."

"Sooner or later, my Chen family will have its own foundation-building cultivator!"

The old man has always treated him well. Seeing the old man like this, Chen Jing'an felt bad from the bottom of his heart.

He also believed in the character of his sixth uncle.

The sixth uncle was not the kind of scum who used family affection to cheat. He never mentioned this matter from beginning to end. I'm afraid he was kept in the dark.

And that General Meng.

Since he knew about it, he chose not to tell.

There is nothing to complain about. After all, the world has never revolved around Qinghe County.

In the final analysis, it is because their weight is not enough, and they are not worth that price in the eyes of the other party.

If you rely on the mountain, the mountain will fall, and if you rely on people, people will run away.

Only if you can stand on your own feet, this is the backbone of the immortals that will never be bent.
