The sky that had just rained was gloomy, just like Zhou Yang's mood at this time.

Not long ago, he took the "Sanyang Barrier Breaking Pill" and successfully broke through to the fourth floor of the foundation, and now he should be in a happy mood.

But a bad news made him feel extremely bad in an instant.

Just a few days ago, his mother Lin Yuting, who accompanied him on his 57th birthday, passed away! Lin Yuting died when his lifespan was exhausted.

Although, the age of her death was still two years away from the 120-year-old limit of a cultivator in the Qi training period.

But it is indeed dead. Immortal cultivators will be summoned by spiritual inspiration a few days before their lifespan is exhausted, and they will understand that they are about to end their lifespan.

Therefore, before Lin Yuting's death, she basically explained everything she wanted to explain and the people she wanted to see.

But for Zhou Yang's son, the loss of a loved one still made him extremely sad and uncomfortable.

He thought that this day would come, but when this day really came, it was still difficult for him to accept.

So much so that he stared at his mother's body in a daze for a long time, only to be woken up by his father Zhou Xuanhao, and then with tears and grief, he watched his mother's body cremated by the hands of the old patriarch Zhou Minghan. At this time, five days have passed since the death of his mother Lin Yuting. Although Zhou Yang is no longer sad and weeping, his mood is still gloomy and sad, and he has not completely recovered from this incident.

The Zhou family has not had a monk in the Zhou family for more than ten years, and Lin Yuting's meditation not only made Zhou Yang feel sad, but also made him realize that in a short time, the Zhou family's "xuan" characters of the same generation as their parents The monks of the generation will gradually become seated.

At that time, there will be more people in the Zhou family who will experience the same sad experience of losing a loved one as him!

The more realistic problem is that those who are about to die and die will basically be the elders of the Zhou family.

Once these people die, the overall strength of the Zhou family will drop a lot, and the number of people who can be used in the future will also be much less.

How to minimize the adverse impact of the death of these people on the family is something that Zhou Yang, the patriarch, needs to consider.

The only good news that can give him a little comfort now is that after seven or eight years of training, the Zhou family's stewardship system has gradually been established. post.

With the existence of these stewards and deputy stewards, even if the elders pass away, they will not interfere with the normal operation of the family.

"Ninth brother, my great-grandfather asked me to tell you that I just received a communication from the Chen family, saying that after the old ancestor of Huangshamen left the customs, he personally sent the news and asked you to visit Huangshamen."

The girl's soft and soft voice suddenly sounded from behind, awakening Zhou Yang's thoughts.

He turned his head to look, and saw a Tingting girl in plain white filial attire who had come behind him at some point, looking at him with a worried expression.

The girl was his righteous sister Zhou Yuanyao.

Zhou Yuanyao is nineteen years old this year. She has been living with Zhou Yang's mother Lin Yuting since she was four or five years old. After getting along for more than ten years, the two are no different emotionally from their biological mother and daughter.

And because Zhou Yang often took time to spend with his mother Lin Yuting over the years, even though the two of them were twenty or thirty years apart in age, the relationship between the two was much better than that between him and Zhou Yuanchun, Zhou Yuanbao and others.

"Yao'er, are you really not going to see your mother?"

Zhou Yang looked at the soft and weak girl in front of him, and suddenly asked a question that had nothing to do with what the girl said.

The mother he was talking about was of course not his mother Lin Yuting, but Zhou Yuanyao's biological mother Zhou Xuanyu.

Because of his identity, Zhou Xuanyu rarely comes back to see Zhou Yuanyao's daughter once a year.

Especially as Zhou Yuanyao grew older and learned about the various evil deeds of the demon cultivator from the mouths of other elders, he gradually began to alienate and deliberately avoid his mother who practiced magic art, and felt a little escapist.

After Zhou Xuanyu found out about this kind of thing, of course she felt very uncomfortable, but she also knew that she couldn't blame her daughter for this, she could only blame herself, who made her really a magician!

So even when she secretly came to see Lin Yuting for the last time this time, Zhou Xuanyu never met Zhou Yuanyao. After witnessing Lin Yuting's death, she quietly left Yuquan Peak with tears in her eyes.

Zhou Yang originally thought that it was a good thing that Zhou Yuanyao and Zhou Xuanyu didn't have much contact with each other, so as not to let people see that something happened because of the frequent contact between the two in the future.

But after experiencing the pain of the death of his close relative this time, he looked at Zhou Yuanyao again and suddenly felt that his previous thoughts were too selfish.

However, after Zhou Yuanyao heard his words, her complexion changed, and she fell silent with her head lowered, obviously she did not have this idea.

Seeing this, Zhou Yang couldn't help standing up, reached out and patted the girl's shoulder lightly and sighed: "Hey, if you have time, let's go over there and have a look, her adoptive mother lives there alone, and also Very sad!"

"I see."

Zhou Yuanyao nodded slightly, her voice was like a mosquito, almost inaudible.

Zhou Yang was familiar with the character of this righteous sister, and when he saw this, he knew immediately that he was afraid that he didn't really take his words seriously.

Therefore, he couldn't help frowning, and suddenly he put his hands on the girl's shoulders, raised the girl's head to face him, and said in a serious tone: "Don't take it seriously, the practice method of my foster mother is compared to our immortal practice method. If you don’t see her for a long time, she may be in danger of being in a sullen mood. You don’t want to see her go crazy and kill all the family monks and mortals on Haoyang Mountain. !"

Sure enough, hearing him say this, the girl's pretty face suddenly changed color.

No matter how she rejected Zhou Xuanyu, her biological mother, she couldn't change the relationship between the two. If Zhou Xuanyu really got into trouble because of her affairs, then her sin would be big.

So she immediately changed her tone, and Zheng nodded with a tight face and said: "Ninth brother, I understand, after three months of filial piety to my adoptive mother, I will go to Haoyang Mountain to stay for a while. ."

"That's good." Zhou Yang stretched out his finger and gently placed his finger on the girl's forehead, smiled softly, and felt a lot better.

It's just that the girl's face was blushed by his actions, and she shrugged her shoulders in dissatisfaction and broke away from his hands and muttered, "Ninth brother, you are so annoying, people are no longer children, why do you still touch people's foreheads like this."

"Hahaha, it's not up to you to decide whether you are a child or not, it's up to us elders who watched you grow up."

Zhou Yang laughed, ignoring the girl's embarrassed face, and reached out and rubbed her head again, rubbing her combed hair into a chicken coop, and then laughing, Yu Jian took off into the sky and left.

Zhou Yuanyao almost didn't cry when he was tricked by him.

Yu Jian flew back to the top of Yuquan Peak, and Zhou Yang immediately went to see the old patriarch Zhou Minghan, and discussed with him about going to Huangshamen to visit.

At this time, Cao Wenjin suddenly sent a letter asking him to visit Huangshamen. There must be something for him to do. He had to explain the affairs of the clan before he could go to Huangshamen with peace of mind.

Fortunately, the three foundation-building monks of the Zhou family are now cultivating in Yuquan Peak. On weekdays, the Zhou family's affairs are all handled by Zhou Xuanhao and Zhou Minghan to help him. Even if he is not in the family, he is not in the family. There will be no problem.

More than ten years ago, in order to completely wipe out the remnants of the Blood Demon Sect, Cao Wenjin did not hesitate to spend his lifespan to continuously perform the "Blood Escape Technique", which hurt his vitality.

Now, after more than ten years of seclusion and recuperation, he finally made up for the loss of vitality and re-exited to preside over sect affairs.

Of course, the lost vitality was made up, but most of the life essence lost by consuming a lot of blood essence could not be recovered through normal means.

So after he left the customs, the first big thing to do was to prepare to personally lead the team to the Floating Cloud Continent Cultivation Realm for trade procurement, to see if he could purchase some life-extending treasures, or help the cultivators of the Zifu period to form a knot. Dan's treasure.

And he called Zhou Yang this time, and the reason was very simple, that is, he wanted to use the "Xuanyang Order" on Zhou Yang's body to go to Xuanyang Xianzong's shop to pick wool.

You must know that one of the functions of "Xuanyang Order" is to enjoy a 20% discount in any store directly managed by Xuanyang Xianzong.

However, the "Mysterious Yang Order" can only be used by its real owner, so Cao Wenjin asked Zhou Yang to come over~lightnovelpub.net~ in fact, he wanted to take him to the Floating Cloud Continent Cultivation World.

"I heard that you want to buy healing medicine for your father? Then you don't have to make your own spirit stone for this matter. As long as you follow the old man, the old man who bought the healing medicine will give it to you, and you You can also seize this opportunity and go there to buy some spiritual items that are useful to you!"

Huangshamen, in Cao Wenjin's cave mansion, Cao Wenjin, the master of the cave mansion, sat on top of the Millennium Frost Jade and looked at Zhou Yang who was standing below with a smile.

The conditions he gave were not unreasonable.

Ordinary people want to go to Floating Cloud Continent to cultivate the immortal world, but they can't go there.

And he not only took Zhou Yang to go there for free, but also helped Zhou Yang to reimburse the cost of buying the healing elixir. This kind of good thing was rare in a thousand years.

Ren was that Zhou Yang thought about breaking his head before he came, but he never thought that when he came to Huangshamen this time, such a great thing would happen to him.

"The great love of the ancestors, the junior and the Zhou family, I am indebted!" He bent down and bowed his hands in a deep salute, and thanked him first.

Then he asked: "It's just that the junior dared to ask the ancestors, how dangerous is the road to the Floating Cloud Continent to cultivate the immortal world? Is it really okay for the junior to follow the past?"

This is a very real problem.

Everyone knows the benefits of going to the Immortal Cultivation Realm in Floating Cloud Continent, but if you want to go to the Immortal Cultivation Realm in Floating Cloud Continent, you first need to climb over the Broken Cloud Mountains where monsters and beasts gather. Who doesn't know the people who have passed through Liuyunzhou's Immortal Cultivation World? Although Huangshamen said that he has a relatively safe passage, everyone knows that the word "safety" in the world of immortals has always been linked to cultivation.

It is a safe passage for the monks of the Jindan period and the monks of the Zifu period, but it may not be safe for the monks of the foundation-building period!
