Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme

Let’s set aside the academy life of a certain prince for now.

Elsewhere, within Li Mansion.

Xu Yang led an elderly couple into the hall, “Father-in-law, mother-in-law, this way please. Yun Er, serve the tea!”

“Yes, young master.”

Dressed as a married woman but still retaining the appearance of a young girl, Miss Xin Shisi also offered them Immortal Tea.

“Father, mother, please have some tea.”

“Good, good, good!”

Old Man Xin looked at his daughter and son-in-law in front of him, smiling from ear to ear, repeatedly praising the scene, while the elderly woman beside him with a youthful face and white hair also nodded continuously.

Compared to the past, there was almost no change in him; he was still clothed in extravagant silk robes, resembling a wealthy Officer, and although his hair was white and he was well beyond his years, he didn’t feel the least bit aged. Instead, he radiated a healthy glow, full of vitality as if he came from a family of Immortals.

The elderly woman beside him was also vigorous and spry, old yet undiminished, and even exuding a bit more of the aura of an Immortal’s household.

Fox Immortal, fox yet Immortal.

The two took their seats and savored the fragrant tea, then exclaimed, “The Immortal Spirit Qi of this Thunder Peak Mist Sprout is ever more pure. Just one sip makes me feel my mana has advanced a bit. King Shifa truly masters the Taoism art!”

Xu Yang smiled, “If father-in-law and mother-in-law like it, I will pack some for you to take back later. Mingxiao Taoist Temple has increased its production and has sent more this way. I have prepared it as a gift, so when the two of you return to Mount Jilei, you can also bring some for your sisters.”

“How could we accept this.”

“Liuxian, you are too polite.”

Upon hearing this, the elders immediately refused, “This Thunder Peak Mist Sprout is given by King Shifa to aid in your cultivation. How could we take over the nest of the magpie? No, we can’t.”

Xu Yang smiled unconcernedly, “It’s just some Spiritual Tea, nothing significant. Please take it with you, father-in-law and mother-in-law.”

“This…alright then.”

The elders initially wanted to decline further, but knowing their son-in-law’s assertive character, they finally agreed with a smile.

Especially Old Man Xin, who couldn’t hide the joy on his face and felt utterly content in his heart.

In his lifetime, the best decision he made was to betroth his daughter Shisi to this Li Jie Yuan, no, Sword Immortal Li!

Now, as one rose to enlightenment, even the pets and poultry ascended with him, not only did his daughter find a blissful place to belong, but their Xin Family also found a safe haven to shelter from the storm and live peacefully—more carefree than when they were in Yellow Mountain.

Even the two of them had received Spirit Pills as aid, their Cultivation improved, and their lifespan extended. The Demons that once gave them no peace on earth or in heaven now not only dared not scheme against them but even behaved submissively in their presence.

All these were thanks to their worthy son-in-law!

Unfortunately, this worthy son-in-law is a man of singular affection, having only taken Shisi as his partner. If only the other fox sisters could enter Li Mansion, how wonderful would that be?

No, no, no, that wouldn’t do. If he were to become a man of many loves, opening up a royal harem, then his daughters might not be able to hold onto their territories.

After all, within Guo Bei Academy nowadays, there are countless Spirit Monsters of various kinds—tigresses from Ba Mountain, Flower Demons from Jingzhou, and even a Chu Qingniao with a trace of Qingluan blood, all of supreme beauty and grace with noble origins and remarkable lineage.

Add to that the other human female cultivators—this talented beauty, that national belle—if he were indiscriminate in his affections, then Li Mansion would become quite lively. His daughter Shisi, with her simple nature, pure and kind-hearted, how could she compete with those alluring women?

It is better to have a thousand choices but choose only one!

Old Man Xin felt waves of relief, but quickly snapped back to reality, hastily reporting, “Liuxian, just as you anticipated, when we arrived at the Gold Silver Leopard’s lair, it was already gone.”

The Gold Silver Leopard was a Demon King.

Three days ago, Xu Yang had asked them to visit the laire of the Gold Silver Leopard to check whether the Demon was still in the mountains.

When they arrived, they found only a few lesser demons and no sign of the Gold Silver Leopard.

Where had it gone?

Old Man Xin did not know, but he suspected his son-in-law had his reasons for keeping an eye on it.

Thus, not wanting to neglect the matter, the elders hurried back to report.

Xu Yang, appearing unconcerned, still replied with a light laugh, “Thank you for the trouble, father-in-law and mother-in-law.”

After saying this, he had Miss Xin Shisi fetch two jade bottles.

“I hear elder sister has completed her cultivation perfectly. Here is one Foundation Building Pill for her, father-in-law and mother-in-law, please take it back to her. As for this bottle, it contains ordinary Spirit Pills to be given to the other sisters. Their cultivation must not fall behind.”

As Xu Yang introduced them, Miss Xin Shisi presented the two bottles of Spirit Pills to the elders.

“Foundation Building Pill?”

“This… we can’t accept it!”

The elders were startled upon hearing this and hurriedly attempted to refuse, but the words wouldn’t come out.

The Foundation Building Pill was a “specialty” recently introduced by Mingxiao Taoist Temple on Mount Jilei.

Over ten years ago, the couple had reached an advanced age and were nearing the end of their lives.

At that time, their daughter Miss Xin Shisi came home for a visit and brought with her two thunderbolt creation-grade supreme Spirit Pills, claiming they were gifts from King Shifa of Mingxiao Taoist Temple to her husband, named Foundation Building Pills!

It was said that these pills could help Cultivators break through and step into the True Person Level, so they were offered to the elders with respect.

The revelation astounded the couple.

Twenty years ago, King Shifa of Mingxiao Taoist Temple had already pioneered the Thunderbolt Refining Pill technique, creating many mysterious and miraculous Spirit Pills that were unheard of in ancient times, gaining fame in the Taoist world and astonishing Cultivators everywhere. But a Spirit Pill that could aid in breaking through the fourth realm to achieve the body of a Five-Realm True Man was still shocking.

One must know that since Ancient Times, the leap from the fourth realm to the fifth has been a great divide.

During Ancient Times, it was less challenging with abundant Yuan Sprit and deities everywhere; it was not difficult for Cultivators to advance in levels. Even if one failed in breaking through, there were masters with powerful mana to support them, without worry.
