The four landed in a good spot. Fang Ruotang is now the master of this secret realm, so she can control things like this.
When she put away the Immortal Binding Rope, she realized that she had personally entered the secret realm and could control the landing point. Couldn't she control the four people together?
"Wow, so much green!" Cui exclaimed in surprise.
The population of Shangjing was large, and the trees in the vicinity had long been cut down. At least from Shangjing to the temple on the outskirts of the city, there were hardly any trees to be seen on the road.
"Indeed! I've never seen so many trees before." Shu Shi also expressed her amazement.
They landed in a lush, dense forest.
"The last time I saw such greenery was when I was a child, during a trip to the south of the Yangtze River with my parents," the old lady said, reminiscing about those days.
Fang Ruotang glanced around and thought the scenery was quite ordinary. She didn't know what her grandmother, mother, and aunt were marveling at.
After all, she had been in the Cloud Deep Continent recently, where the trees and grass were even more lush, and she had become accustomed to such beautiful scenery.
"...How about we walk forward a bit?"
Fang Ruotang waited until they finished exclaiming in surprise before speaking up to remind them.
The place she chose was safe; a little further ahead in this grove of trees, there was another flower field.
The flowers have some medicinal effects, but the quantity is large and ordinary, so there are no strange beasts guarding this place, making it very suitable for the Fang family members who are visiting the secret realm for the first time.
After all, their cultivation level was low.
Fang Ruotang could see right through her.
Mother and aunt stopped at the second level of Qi Refining.
Grandmother was more skilled, at the fourth level of Qi Refining, which was higher than grandfather. This was something Fang Ruotang hadn't expected, but it also seemed quite normal.
After all, the grandfather had to attend court, and the mother and aunt managed the large Prime Minister's mansion, handling all the social interactions within the mansion.
My grandmother stopped managing affairs in her early years and spent more time cultivating herself.
Cultivation is like rowing against the current; if you don't advance, you fall behind.
“Okay!” Cui replied, then asked curiously, “Sixth Brother, you said we’d all follow you from now on, meaning we’d stay in here?”
“Yes, this is a secret realm for cultivation. You can quickly improve your cultivation level here. I have already refined this secret realm and can sense everything inside it, so I can guarantee your safety. This is the best option for you right now.”
After Fang Ruotang finished speaking, she smiled and took the old lady's arm.
"And that way, I can come in to see you anytime and bring you out whenever I want. So, do you want to enter the secret realm to cultivate?"
"grandmother……"
Fang Ruotang spoke in a long, drawn-out tone, bending over, tilting her head back, and blinking her big, bright eyes.
The old lady raised her hand and tapped Fang Ruotang's nose, chuckling as she said, "This is good, but what will happen to your grandfather and the others if the three of us all go with you?"
"They're coming too! Can't this huge secret realm hold them all? This secret realm can hold ten thousand people! It's a very large secret realm."
"Nonsense, how could your grandfather leave? He had to handle all the big and small matters in the court." The old lady smiled kindly.
Fang Ruotang pouted and said, "He's not the emperor. He can just resign! Does he have to stay as prime minister forever?"
Fang Ruotang tilted her head, puzzled.
After all, even the emperor couldn't resist the allure of cultivating immortality.
“You know your grandfather’s personality. This is too sudden. How could he let go? He has to be responsible for the people, doesn’t he?”
Fang Ruotang scrunched up her little face. Knowing her grandfather's temperament too well wasn't good either, and at this moment she couldn't even utter a word of rebuttal.
"You don't need to look at me, your father is too."
“Your uncle is power-hungry and probably won’t let go.”
Cui was even more direct, and she laughed as she spoke.
Fang Ruotang brought the topic back to itself, "Then come with me! You've already cultivated immortality, why would you care about these things in the mortal world? Look, even the emperor has abdicated."
“It’s different. Everyone has different pursuits. The Emperor originally…” Cui hesitated for a moment before saying, “He originally longed for this kind of thing, but your uncle’s dream is to become the most powerful minister.”
"It's alright! Just leave Uncle here."
"Auntie also has to take care of household chores at home! Thank you, Xiao Liu. If Auntie wants to go again in the future, she can ask you for help, okay?"
Madam Cui's eyes crinkled with laughter. After all, her niece cared about her so much, which made her very happy. However, as the matriarch of the household, she couldn't just leave without a word.
"Mother and younger sister-in-law can go with Xiao Liu to take a look."
Fang Ruotang's eyes lit up at Cui's mention.
The old lady hesitated for a moment, then relented and said, "I'll discuss it with your grandfather when he returns, and then we'll make a decision."
“I’ll talk to your father too.” After thinking for a moment, Madam Shu had already decided to go.
Both daughters are on the other side of the Cloud Deep Continent, and the youngest son is determined to cultivate. It seems that the family will not be able to keep anyone here.
She might as well go with them; at least she could see her children all the time.
As for husbands, none are as important as children.
Furthermore, she can come back to visit whenever she has free time, just like Fang Ruotang, who returns to Dayong every now and then, which won't affect anything.
Fang Ruotang led the three of them to a safe spot in the secret realm, and then specifically sought out a low-level demonic beast and killed it.
It was Fang Ruotang's first time killing a demon beast in front of her family. She wanted to show off, so she moved lightly and quickly, which drew applause and cheers from the three members of the Shu family.
Fang Ruotang raised her chin and said proudly, "These are nothing. You can eat them too in the future. The meat of this demon beast contains a small amount of spiritual energy. Ordinary mortals can also eat a little bit. Grandmother, you have already reached the Qi Refining stage, so you can eat a little bit normally."
Looking at the strange creature that resembled a cow and a pig, the old lady asked nervously, "Can this thing taste good?"
"It's delicious. This kind of food with spiritual energy is a hundred or a thousand times better than ordinary food. It will be sent to the kitchen in a while and the chef will make it. You'll know once you try it."
When it came to food, Fang Ruotang got excited and killed a few more low-level demonic beasts before leading the old lady and the others out of the secret realm.
He rushed to the kitchen, instructed them on how to prepare the meat, and then hurriedly found Fang Zhili, dragging him directly into the secret realm without saying a word.
"I'm going to change your spiritual root."
Upon hearing Fang Ruotang's words, Fang Zhili's face immediately lit up with surprise. Before he could even speak, Fang Ruotang had completely stunned him, and he didn't even have time to compose himself.
Okay, okay, I'm going to start changing Zhili's spiritual roots now!
Okay, I'm coming right away.
Rong Xing didn't ask why it was so sudden. It had only been an hour or two since he left the Prime Minister's residence. He simply dropped what he was doing and rushed to the Prime Minister's residence.
