Even the most powerful families can't withstand hundreds of years of attrition. How can they compare to cultivators with long lifespans? They could simply let them languish and eventually kill them. It's the other side that should be anxious and frustrated. Therefore, they don't need to worry about these three families at all, as their starting points are fundamentally different.
“However…” Ling Qi looked at You You again, “His Majesty’s relatives will need to be re-selected.”
“Oh, right!” Youyou suddenly remembered something. “Isn’t there another Yuan family? Why didn’t they get involved in this matter?” She had given hints to four families before. In addition to these three families, there was also the Yuan family, which came with its own technology and teachers.
Ling Qi paused for a moment, then replied with some nervousness, "Perhaps because... the Yuan family patriarch entered the pavilion yesterday and will personally oversee the Yuan family's selection of a new leader."
"The Yuan family patriarch has arrived!" You You was surprised. Was the Nascent Soul patriarch really going to give her such a big favor?
“Choosing a master is a major event for the entire clan, so it’s normal for the patriarch to come in person,” Ling Qi said.
"So the Yuan family was too busy to get involved in this?" You You frowned. If the other party shared the same thought as the three families...
“Even if that’s not the case, I doubt the Yuan family would do something like privately driving away the Heavenly Maiden Sect members.” Seeing that she seemed about to misunderstand, Ling Qi quickly added.

Your Excellency's disciple has already reached the Foundation Establishment stage just after awakening his spiritual root. This is an aptitude that is one in ten thousand in the Immortal Continent. Given time, he will surely become the backbone of the immortal sect. How could we possibly abandon him?"
That makes sense; her brother is very outstanding.
You You thought for a moment, and realized that the Yuan family could still continue to cooperate. "Ling Qi, then please go and talk to the Yuan family, explain my situation, and see if that's what they think. If not, then make it clear as soon as possible; if so, then it's a pleasure to cooperate."
Ling Qi's smile deepened, and he took a step back, bowing respectfully. "Yes, Your Excellency!"
After saying that, he turned around and went to inform them. I don't know if it was just my imagination, but I felt that his steps were unusually light, as if he was a little excited.
