The founding ancestor of the Cyan Mountain Sect, a legendary figure of the Chu Kingdom, today I didn’t expect to hear his voice again.
As for where exactly Lu Ping is at this mont and why he doesn’t show up, Xuu ngyuan did not inquire further, guessing that Lu Ping had reasons for not appearing.
"Yes, it is I."
Lu Ping slightly nodded, changed the subject, and first brought up the matter of Xu Jiang and Chen Lan.
"Xuu ngyuan, this ti, you handled Xu Jiang and those two well. They violated the Weapon Ban Order of Guangde County, and you should have done so."
Upon hearing Lu Ping bring up this matter, Xuu ngyuan was visibly taken aback.
How did the ancestor know about this?
But soon, he reacted.
There’s nothing too surprising about it.
Given the ancestor’s capabilities, learning about this matter would undoubtedly be easy.
The ancestor is indeed highly skilled in divine techniques.
"Reporting to the ancestor, I was rely following the rules."
"As long as I am still safeguarding Guangde County, I should strive wholeheartedly to protect this town and never allow troublemakers to act recklessly."
Xuu ngyuan spoke seriously, even if given another chance to handle this matter, he would still personally take action to slay Xu Jiang and Chen Lan and wouldn’t fear Xue Wuyan.
"You did very well. As for whether Xue Wuyan will seek revenge on you later, you need not worry, as the sect will be your strongest support."
"There will inevitably be a reckoning between the Hengyue Sect and our Cyan Mountain Sect, so you need not worry about offending the Hengyue Sect over today’s matter."
"With you safeguarding Guangde County, I am very reassured."
Lu Ping’s words moved Xuu ngyuan to tears.
The two of them talked for a while on this topic.
Then, Lu Ping ntioned Xuu ngyuan’s cultivation situation, asking whether Xuu ngyuan still had thoughts of Foundation Establishnt.
Upon ntioning this, Xuu ngyuan’s eyes lit up, holding great expectations for Foundation Establishnt, but at the thought of his age, he couldn’t help but sigh.
"Ancestor, to be honest, with these old bones of mine close to the earth, even if I wanted to defy fate and attempt Foundation Establishnt, the hope seems too slim, like crossing a log bridge with a thousand soldiers, too risky."
"I, Xuu ngyuan, in this life, being able to serve as an elder of the Cyan Mountain Sect and protect Guangde County for over ten years is already satisfying, and I no longer desire Foundation Establishnt."
"During the remaining years, I still hope to contribute more to the sect, and diligently protect this Guangde County."
Lu Ping quietly listened, understanding the troubles in Xuu ngyuan’s heart.
For which Qi Cultivator doesn’t desire Foundation Establishnt?
All aspire to Foundation Establishnt.
Xuu ngyuan knew that he was too old to hope for Foundation Establishnt, so he decided to use the last bit of ti in his life to contribute to the Cyan Mountain Sect, and safeguard Guangde County, rather than fall during the process of Foundation Establishnt, thus nurturing this current idea.
For Xuu ngyuan, Foundation Establishnt was regarded as a luxury.
Understanding Xuu ngyuan’s concerns, Lu Ping decided not to beat around the bush.
"If it’s because you’re too old, and your Qi blood is declining that you are reluctant to attempt Foundation Establishnt, solving this issue isn’t difficult."
Addressing Xuu ngyuan’s issue of old age and declining Qi blood wouldn’t be too hard; Lu Ping could easily manage it.
Upon hearing Lu Ping’s words, Xuu ngyuan was startled, subconsciously thinking Lu Ping was joking, trying to comfort him, but upon second thought, would the ancestor’s words be said lightly, perhaps he really had a way.
Doesn’t he want to live a few more years, even attempt Foundation Establishnt?
Of course, I do!
"Ancestor, do you really have a thod?"
Xuu ngyuan’s voice trembled slightly, his face full of anticipation.
"I have a thod here."
Lu Ping opened the system mall, among the many items, he found [Three-star - Return of the Light] and [Three-star - Life Extension].
The forr allows a sect mber’s physical condition to restore to the age of 20, full of youthful vitality, with a redemption cost of 1000 points of reputation.
The latter can increase a sect mber’s lifespan by ten years, with a redemption cost of 200 reputation points.
Both of these are suitable for Xuu ngyuan’s current physical condition.
Without waiting for Xuu ngyuan to ask more, Lu Ping followed up by saying.
"I will now lend you a hand."
Spending 1000 reputation points, Lu Ping redeed [Three-star - Return of the Light] and directly selected Xuu ngyuan as the target for use.
First using this option to try on Xuu ngyuan, see if the effect of Return of the Light could restore so of Xuu ngyuan’s lifespan as well.
Logically, restoring physical functions to the age of 20 should indeed extend so of the lifespan.
What the result would be, only trying it out would tell.
"If you feel any changes in your body in a mont, try to remain calm."
Lu Ping, with a composed expression, gave a heads-up, and the effect of [Three-star - Return of the Light] started to take effect on Xuu ngyuan.
"Alright, alright, alright!"
Xuu ngyuan nodded excitedly, his face full of surprise and anticipation.
He didn’t expect that Lu Ping would do as he said, without the slightest hesitation.
After making preparations, in just an instant, Xuu ngyuan felt an unusual sensation within his body, quite evidently.
A warm feeling, like the trickling stream, began flowing from the Dantian, perating through the limbs and bones, and Eight Extraordinary ridians.
The originally weakened Qi and blood in the body, at this mont, began gradually strengthening, returning to the youthful and vigorous state.
"This...this..."
Noticing this anomaly first, Xuu ngyuan’s face revealed an incredible look, raising his hands to carefully examine.
The originally dried and wrinkled skin, at this mont, seed newly born, becoming delicately smooth at a visible pace, no longer aged.
The most evident change, from Lu Ping’s perspective, was seeing Xuu ngyuan’s head full of white hair, even the brows, beard, and other hair, gradually turning black, rejuvenating to a youthful appearance.
Other detailed changes, like the cloudy eyes, teeth, nails, etc., also gained new life.
"I... I really beca younger?!"
Seeing the astonishing changes on his body, Xuu ngyuan gaped in shock, deeply moved by this scene happening to him.
For a mont, he even felt a sense of unreality, like he was dreaming.
Upon observing Xuu ngyuan’s rejuvenated appearance, Lu Ping pulled up Xuu ngyuan’s personal attribute panel for inspection.
