357: Section 357
That direction was where many ordinary members of the Su Family lived!
"Longevity..."
"The Su Family is about to produce another Qilin child..."
Su Zhou slowly opened his mouth, smiling indifferently.
....
On the other side, the Su Family's ancestral land—
A city filled with a mundane, worldly atmosphere, a city of human habitation, came into view...
After thousands of years of development...
The Su Family had become a colossal entity!
Within the Lingxiao Realm, the number of their Family members had exploded geometrically!
Naturally, many Geniuses emerged from this...
Which also allowed Su Zhou to achieve the feat of a hundred Prodigies and ten thousand peerless individuals!
But...
Everything has two sides!
With a large base, there would always be some useless individuals with poor Aptitude!
Similarly, Cultivation was difficult...
And a large group of Family members were born who either retreated when faced with difficulties halfway through, or were unable to Cultivate due to injuries!
Unconsciously...
A city was born specifically to house them!
Upon closer inspection...
This city, in a trance, bore some resemblance to Tianwu City!
And at this moment...
Inside the city, in an old, somewhat dilapidated ancestral hall...
A bald old man was silently wiping one memorial tablet after another.
Making them spotless and as clean as new.
Although the ancestral hall was old...
However...
It was exceptionally clean.
There wasn't a speck of dust.
Even the ground was spotless, reflecting one's image.
The bald old man seemed to have a cleanliness obsession, repeatedly wiping again and again...
It was clearly already very clean...
But he stubbornly continued to clean...
After a long time...
After finishing cleaning the ancestral hall...
He picked up a broom again, left the ancestral hall, came to the courtyard, and began to sweep the yellowing fallen leaves...
A gentle breeze brushed across his resolute face, but his eyes remained focused, holding the broom, sweeping the fallen leaves and dust on the ground.
"Creak~"
The courtyard gate, dilapidated from age, opened with a push...
From outside the gate, a young man walked in.
The young man was strong, with a sturdy build, and his body was filled with a fierce Aura...
With every movement, he subtly carried the faint image of a mighty bear!
Indicating his Cultivation—Tian Yuan!
In the vast Su Family, this was not uncommon... in fact, it could even be described as mediocre!
But in this Mortal City, where everyone had given up on Cultivation, consisting of the old, weak, sick, and disabled, or those with low Aptitude, he stood out like a crane among chickens!
Those with his Cultivation were already crippled old men...
Those of his age did not possess his Cultivation...
He was out of place...
As abrupt as an outsider...
And his next action...
Was even more abrupt!
"Thud!"
The young man knelt down stiffly!
Tears silently welled up in his eyes...
Muttering:
"Brother Wenxin...."
The bald old man, the Brother Wenxin he spoke of—Su Wenxin.
Still focused on sweeping the fallen leaves, he didn't even lift an eyelid at his arrival.
As if...
Everything in the outside world was less important than the broom in his hand...
A gentle breeze swept by, disturbing the fallen leaves he had just swept, blowing them and the dust back to their original positions.
Su Wenxin did not complain, silently walked to the side, and continued to sweep with concentration.
Looking at Su Wenxin like this, the young man's heart felt like it was being pricked by needles, a faint stinging pain...
This fierce man's eyes silently streamed with tears, large teardrops falling freely...
Finally...
He could no longer hold back...
"Bang!"
He heavily kowtowed!
Crying out in anguish:
"Brother Wenxin.... please Cultivate... If you don't Cultivate... you'll die of old age!"
"You clearly... have the best talent in Mortal City... why must you guard the ancestral hall your whole life!"
Yes, in Mortal City, those injured and disabled descendants who did not engage in Cultivation would also marry and have children!
They were also members of the Su Family!
Enjoying the Su Family's Luck!
Countless newborns... possessed extremely outstanding Cultivation talent...
Leaving Mortal City and embarking on the path of Cultivation!
After achieving success in Cultivation, they would also return to Mortal City to fulfill their filial duties to their elders at home.
The entire Mortal City, although full of Mortals and Cultivators who could not advance an inch...
But they were intricately connected...
If anything happened, they could call upon the entire Su Family!
This was the Su Family's Family motto!
Extremely overbearing in protecting their own!
The best worldly materials, resources...
Everything Mortal City desired... would not be lacking!
Except for...
Cultivation resources!
These Cultivation resources, as long as one had the talent for Cultivation...
Could be obtained from the Su Family after leaving Mortal City!
But...
Su Wenxin, possessing the best talent, stayed in Mortal City his entire life!
