322: Teach your son

Inside the Pill Refining Room, Zhou Changlun was already covered in sweat.

Although he was already at Qi Training Fourth Level, his control over the pill fire was still in a nascent stage; he could only rely on brute force to melt the medicinal ingredients.

The after-effects of such a direct and forceful method were that his spiritual energy was depleted too quickly, leaving him somewhat lacking in stamina.

But if this pile of medicinal ingredients wasn't completely melted, he would have to keep trying.

Zhou Changqing, watching this scene from the side, frowned on his small face, sighed, and climbed onto a chair again.

Standing on the chair, he took a deep breath, and a green glow suddenly appeared on his body.

Outside the door, Zhou Luo, seeing this, felt greatly surprised.

This kid's talent is so good, he can even release spiritual light?

Generally speaking, before Qi Training Third Level, the control over spiritual energy is very rough and basically cannot be used in combat.

And after reaching the Fourth Level where spiritual energy can be externalized, one can condense protective spiritual light.

The spiritual light at this stage is still very fragile and can only block some wind and rain. Only upon reaching the Fifth Level can one become a true combat Cultivator and learn combat Cultivation Methods.

Zhou Changqing had just started Cultivation and was currently only at Qi Training First Level.

Yet he could release spiritual light, and his use of spiritual energy was surprisingly proficient.

It seems I truly didn't understand this son with a Second Grade Spiritual Root deeply enough.

Inside the room, Xiao Changqing raised his small, tender hand and placed it on the Pill Furnace, then closed his eyes, and the green light on his body grew stronger.

At the same time, wisps of spiritual energy flowed from his palm into the Pill Furnace.

Whoosh—

The flame grew strong again, and the temperature suddenly increased.

"Younger Brother, thanks," Zhou Changlun said in surprise.

Thanks to Zhou Changqing's help, he was clearly not struggling as much and breathed a sigh of relief.

A quarter of an hour later, all the medicinal ingredients were melted into medicinal liquid.

Just then, Zhou Luo suddenly pushed the door open and entered.

"Ah!"

Zhou Changqing was startled and accidentally fell off the chair.

The next second, a gentle force enveloped him.

Zhou Changlun froze in place, his cheeks slightly red, feeling somewhat uneasy.

Zhou Luo walked over: "Well, well, Zhou Changqing, you've learned to lie now, haven't you?"

He looked at the other party's appearance, his face stern, his tone serious.

Xiao Changqing stood properly, lowered his head, and didn't dare to speak at all.

Zhou Luo looked towards Zhou Changlun: "You knew too?"

Zhou Changlun pursed his lips and said apologetically: "Father, I'm sorry."

Zhou Luo took a chair and sat down, looking at the two brothers, and said solemnly: "You indeed should say sorry. As the older brother, you should set an example, not help him hide it from me."

Both of these brothers have decent talent. If they enter an Immortal Sect in the future and have no one to look after them, no one knows what they might become.

Therefore, he must take advantage of this Time to properly Cultivate them, to prevent them from causing big trouble in the future.

His voice was somewhat cold, and coupled with the Aura of the Foundation Establishment Realm, it was like a strong wind blowing towards Zhou Changlun, causing his entire body to shake uncontrollably.

In their previous interactions, he had always felt that his Father was kind and amiable, so he had behaved a bit more willfully than before.

But when Zhou Luo was truly angry, he realized that his Father was only easygoing normally, but when he truly made a mistake, he was still no different from others.

Thinking of this, he felt extremely flustered, afraid that his Father would get angry and drive him away.

Thump—

The next second, he suddenly knelt on the ground.

"Father, I was wrong."

This scene caused Zhou Luo's eyebrows to slightly raise. Zhou Changqing, who was stunned for a moment, also hurriedly knelt down beside him.

"Father, it's all my fault. I was the one who made Brother lie to you."

The child's voice had a tearful tone, and his face was full of anxiety.

Zhou Luo quietly watched the two brothers, secretly feeling relieved that they could bear the mistake together.

"Alright, on the path of Cultivation, you must walk the Righteous Path, not deceive others or just think about taking shortcuts. That will only lead you astray..."

Although he felt relieved, what needed to be taught still had to be taught.

He now had a total of forty-nine descendants; it was impossible for him to teach every single one, and he could not predict what each person would ultimately become.

He only hoped that these children he favored would have a pure and kind nature and not walk the path of Evil Cultivators or Rogue Cultivator.

The two brothers knelt there, with their heads lowered, not daring to refute.

Zhou Luo only stopped after lecturing for a full quarter of an hour.

"Do you know your mistake now?"

"We know," the two brothers said in unison.

"Good, Changlun, you go back first. Changqing, stay here," Zhou Luo said.

Zhou Changlun turned his head and glanced at his younger brother, then looked up and said: "Father, Younger Brother is still young, he's just playful."

He was worried that his Father would punish him.

"Don't worry," Zhou Luo waved his hand.

Zhou Changlun stood up this time, took a deep look at his younger brother, and then left the Pill Refining Room.

As for the little guy Zhou Changqing, his small hand was tightly gripping the hem of his clothes, extremely scared.

"You can do Pill Refining?" Zhou Luo had just seen the little guy's appearance and it was clear he had Pill Refining talent.

Zhou Changqing didn't dare to lie now and said honestly: "Sorry Father, I lied to you."

"Lying to me is fine, but I hope you know that Cultivation requires diligence and consistency. If you only think about how to be lazy, then you are lying to yourself," Zhou Luo said seriously.

This son was currently his only descendant with a Second Grade Spiritual Root, and he had also received many benefits bestowed by himself. His future achievements were bound to be extraordinary.

And the more so, the more he hoped the other party could walk the Righteous Path.

Of course, he also understood that the child was still young, so he didn't scold him too much.

Zhou Changqing nodded heavily.

"Get up. From tomorrow onwards, you and your Brother will do Pill Refining with me," Zhou Luo told him to leave.

After the two brothers left, he sat on the chair, thinking about the next education plan.

Being playful is the nature of youth, which is unavoidable.

Especially in this large mansion, with only these two little guys who cannot go out all day, they are bound to feel bored.

It seems I'll have to implement a two-day weekend system, just like in my previous life.

Zhou Luo felt that he still couldn't push them too hard.

In the following days, Zhou Luo took the two brothers to do Pill Refining together and taught them.

With him, a Second-Order Alchemist, teaching them, the two brothers didn't encounter any obstacles in their Cultivation.

Especially Zhou Changqing.

Don't look at this little guy being just over five years old; he is intelligent and talented, and has a photographic memory. He can basically understand after Zhou Luo explains it once.

In this regard, Zhou Changlun, as the Brother, was slightly inferior.

However, compared to those Alchemists outside, the performance of the two children was already excellent enough.

One day, while Zhou Luo was teaching the two brothers, a servant came to the inner courtyard.

"Master, Sun Alchemist requests an audience."

Zhou Luo's eyes slightly flickered.

Previously, he was preparing to go find the other party to discuss the matter of the empty land. He didn't expect the other party to actually come to his door on their own initiative.

Since he's here, that's good too.

He said: "Alright, first take him to the main hall. Just say that I'm doing Pill Refining and will come over later."

"Yes, Master."

The other party respectfully withdrew.
