Chapter 537: 537 conditions
Zeng Zhenqing sighed, "Xiao Su, you know I don't mean it that way."
"Leader, I understand. From the first time we met at the train station until now, I'm clear about what you think of Tan Shaoting."
"Xiao Su, sometimes some people just like to contradict."
"Leader, I understand.
Leader, I'm not trying to make a deal with you. Whatever special task there is this year, I'll go, but the condition is that the entire Hou Wanzhong family must be in my hands."
Zeng Zhenqing rubbed his temples. "Xiao Su, Xiao Tan has already had an accident, and now his fate is uncertain. I can't."
"Leader, I can. I'm not just boasting. I can do it too."
Zeng Zhenqing looked at the stubborn Su Yuanyuan and finally sighed. "Wait for my news. This matter must be approved by the higher-ups, and those people must not have anything to say."
"Thank you, Leader."
Zeng Zhenqing did not ask what she planned to do with the Hou Family? She was a woman with a bitter fate; her husband and child left her at the same time, and she was still so young. She would live the rest of her life in sadness.
Zeng Zhenqing left. Su Yuanyuan also went home.
On the way, she encountered Zhuang Yuanxi and her son.
The introverted child suddenly ran to Su Yuanyuan's side and grabbed her hand, "Auntie, the younger siblings will definitely come back."
Su Yuanyuan couldn't hold back her tears.
She looked at the child, "Yes, they will definitely come back."
Han CuiZhen just softly said, "Take care."
Sometimes people's kindness is also a form of motivation.
Su Yuanyuan had a feeling that Tan Shaoting would definitely return with the children to her side. She had confidence. But why did she just want to cry?
When she got home, she lay motionless on the bed, not thinking of anything, her mind blank.
And Tan Shaoting, after the children woke up, took them to eat. Now they could already eat spirit rice, so when the children first tasted the spirit rice porridge, although the meat and vegetables were mixed in the porridge, the taste was still quite good.
The three of them were now Qi Refining First Level little cultivators, so this spirit meal was very helpful to them. The three children didn't finish eating and just sat down to meditate on the spot.
Their life as a family of four was getting on track. Every day, they cultivated, and when they weren't cultivating, they read books.
Tan Shaoting felt sorry for them. They were only just over three years old. Now it was rare to see them smile, and they were even less likely to ask for anything from him. They just cultivated and studied.
"Qi Yan, Qi Hong, Qi Wen, should we go out and have a look? We can't just cultivate; we also need to go out and explore.
I've told you before, cultivating is mainly about cultivating the mind. An unstable mindset can be dangerous, and naturally, your cultivation won't improve.
You three are now at Qi Refining Second Level, so we should go out and take a look, and also think of ways to earn spirit stones."
All three nodded. In fact, they didn't want to go out, but progressing from Qi Refining Second Level to the third layer was quite difficult.
Although they were still children, with fewer distractions, their deep obsession with wanting to go back to find Mom wasn't good either. Cultivation emphasizes cultivating the mind, and without a stable mindset, it's really easy to have problems.
"Dad, where are we going?"
"We'll take the flying boat to Wolf Tooth Mountain; there should be a lot of spiritual medicine there. We'll collect it and exchange it for spirit stones."
The three children had no objections. Cultivators didn't have much to pack, so each of the three had a storage bag hanging outside, with talismans inside, and each had a bottle of Recovery Pill. Nothing else was prepared for them.
"You three must use the cultivation technique I taught you to lower your cultivation to the First Layer. It's best to play the pig to eat the tiger. You're too young, and if people know your cultivation level, they'll suspect you have treasures,
As I've said, killing and robbing is very common here, so our family must keep a low profile."
The three children all nodded, lowering their cultivation to Qi Refining First Layer.
Tan Shaoting knew that the direct descendants of some cultivation families would have their marrow cleansed and be guided in cultivation as soon as the children could cultivate, so it was plausible for them to be at Qi Refining First Layer now.
The father and three sons left the courtyard. "You three remember, you must be careful. If there's any danger, you hide, and Dad will take care of it."
"Dad, how do you know?"
"Because when I came out of the secret realm and went to sell spiritual medicine, we were already being watched,
In the workshop, dueling is not allowed, so they've been waiting for us to leave."
"Dad, will it be dangerous?"
"It will be, but we can't avoid going out just because we know there's danger. Cultivation cannot involve cowardice; otherwise, there will definitely be trouble in the future. Cultivation is about moving forward relentlessly."
The three children nodded. They understood. The father and three sons left the workshop and boarded the spaceship.
The three children were riding a flying artifact for the first time. They had read books and knew that the grade of this flying boat wasn't high, with an average speed, but it wasn't something Qi Cultivation Stage cultivators could own.
"How is it? Is it fun?"
"Dad, this is similar to an airplane."
"Yes, Dad is going to speed up now."
Tan Shaoting had already noticed five people following them out.
They really looked highly upon them, to have five come. Now Tan Shaoting was considering whether to put the three children away because he might not be able to take care of them then.
"In a while, Dad will put you all away."
"Dad, we'll stay out here, don't you have an array?"
Tan Shaoting thought about it and nodded. He couldn't let the children be too comfortable; they should see and experience what they needed to try.
The three children were a bit nervous, but they did not panic.
"Don't be nervous. I guess they'll only make a move in the mountains. Although murder and robbery happen often, they still like to cover it up with a facade."
The spaceship wasn't too fast, so it took them two hours to reach the foot of Wolf Tooth Mountain.
Tan Shaoting put away the spaceship and led the three children into the mountain.
"Dad, are they still following us?"
"Yes, they're still following." How could they give up after waiting for so long?
"Don't be afraid, you three."
"Dad, we're not afraid."
They couldn't just do nothing after knowing there was danger behind them, so they still kept an eye on what could be found in the mountain.
Just entering the mountain, there really wasn't anything valuable. There was only a just-advanced demon beast.
The children hadn't seen one before, so they were quite scared at first. Seeing the rabbit that was the size of a goat, they were fearful but also found it novel.
"These are Gale Rabbits. They're very fast, but not very harmful."
"Dad, do they bite people?"
"No, they use their claws, which are very sharp."
