581: Zhou Luo's Debt

In the Qingyuan Domain, there were originally Five Great Evergreen Families: Lin, Lu, Zhang, Li, and Wang.

The reason they were called Longevity Families was not because they truly lived forever, but because compared to ordinary people or small Family forces, they had existed for a sufficiently long Time.

Among these, the Li Family had the longest history; it is said that three thousand years ago, the Li Family became an affiliated Zhou Family of the Azure Origin Sect.

The subsequent four Zhou Families also emerged successively over two thousand years ago.

Under the attention of the Azure Origin Sect, they slowly developed and grew strong, achieving the title of Immortal Family today.

Two of them have long since become history, and the Zhou Family has become the new dark horse.

And in these nearly three thousand years, the Five Great Evergreen Families have not lacked some monstrous geniuses.

But even so, these geniuses ultimately only reached the Foundation Establishment Realm, and then either their Lifespan was exhausted or their Breakthrough failed, completely buried in the long river of history.

To this day, not a single Golden Core True Person has ever been born among these Five Great Evergreen Families.

This is because the time span from Foundation Establishment to Golden Core is simply too long; some Immortals with extraordinary talent may spend their entire lives and still not touch the threshold.

And those who are qualified to touch the threshold die on the way just as they are about to leap over the Dragon Gate.

Even within the entire Azure Origin Sect, there are only a handful of people who can break through to the Golden Core Realm.

One can imagine the value of this Golden Core True Person.

Now, Zhou Luo's sudden rise has made these Longevity Families suddenly realize that they too can Cultivation to the Golden Core Realm.

What's more, Zhou Luo has probably only been cultivating for just over two hundred Nian, hasn't he?

Breaking through to Golden Core in over two hundred Nian is an incredibly formidable existence in the entire Fire Cloud Country.

If they didn't know that Zhou Luo had a low-level Ling Gen (Spiritual Root), they would have regarded him as a monstrous Genius with a Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root.

Facing this impossible miracle, they could only assume that the powerful individual the other party encountered was a true Immortal.

Initially, everyone thought it was an ordinary Nascent Soul Great Cultivator, or even a Nascent Soul expert.

Now, they feel that only an Immortal can make a low-level Ling Gen (Spiritual Root) Immortal step from an ordinary person into the Golden Core Realm in two hundred Nian.

This is something many people envy but cannot achieve.

After all, Immortal destiny is something that can be encountered but not sought, and it is not certain that even one lucky one will be born on the entire Continent.

It just so happens that this lucky one appeared on Zhou Luo.

Many Immortals are envious and jealous, but dare not harbor any hatred.

Who told him he was already a Golden Core True Person.

It is said that at this level, when someone harbors resentment, he can sense it.

Especially when that person gets close.

At present, the entire Qingyuan Domain is boiling; originally, they thought the Zhou Family would decline from now on, but Zhou Luo's appearance severely slapped their faces.

Especially since he even killed the Li Family Head in front of the Azure Origin Sect.

It makes other Cultivators feel that the current Zhou Family is an existence that absolutely cannot be offended.

In the future, it will probably become the force second only to the Immortal Sect in the Qingyuan Domain.

Maple Leaf City.

Zhou Luo has already rushed back.

The city is now extremely lively, and the previously deserted streets are crowded with people.

Both the Inner City and the Outer City are very festive and lively.

Every Zhou Family is decorated with lanterns and streamers, and some even hang banners with phrases like 'Congratulations True Person'.

Currently, Zhou Luo has not yet held a Golden Core grand ceremony, so everyone doesn't know his Daoist title and can only refer to him as True Person.

Arriving at the Zhou Family mansion.

The Zhou Family high-level members who were poisoned have all woken up.

The former Family Head, Zhou Changyuan, immediately came to Lin Xi's room to beg for forgiveness as soon as he woke up, carrying thorns.

He thought he could control the Li Family.

But unexpectedly, in the end, he would be tricked by the Li Family.

The moment he woke up, he understood that he was wrong, so he knelt in front of Lin Xi's room without hesitation.

Lin Xi was worried about his body and finally had someone take him to the confinement room, planning to deal with it after Zhou Luo returned.

Don't look at Lin Xi being impartial on weekdays, but out of love for Zhou Luo, she is extremely good to these children of Zhou Luo.

Especially since Zhou Changyuan's ability is actually not bad, and he is genuinely good to the Lin Family.

He just went astray.

When Zhou Luo returned, Lin Xi told him about Zhou Changyuan in front of him.

"Changyuan, this child, is not bad by nature, and he never harmed me or any Zhou Family member's life from beginning to end."

"It's just that his temperament is too impatient; I was originally thinking of recommending him for the Family Head position after you came out of seclusion."

"So you must not punish him severely."

In the room, Lin Xi, leaning against Zhou Luo's embrace, said softly.

In her eyes, Zhou Changyuan had always been a child.

After she was controlled by the other party back then, she never blamed the other party.

Even though she was later ostracized to Qingyuan City, when the Zhou Family was in danger, she still returned without hesitation and took charge of the Zhou Family again.

Zhou Luo listened to the gentle voice, stretched out his broad right hand, gently stroked her black hair, his eyes warm, and said calmly: "You've worked hard all these Nian."

"I really didn't consider your feelings, and I didn't know that you actually never wanted to be this Family Head."

Listening to the other party's narration, Zhou Luo realized that the other party was truly tired of the Family Head position and only wanted to focus on Cultivation.

This is also his fault.

He handed over the Family Head position to Lin Xi back then because she was the one he trusted the most by his side.

Later, he had been living in Qingyuan City and rarely inquired about Zhou Family matters.

But seeing how well Lin Xi managed the Zhou Family, he didn't think much about it and didn't consider the other party's thoughts.

Thinking about it now, for a woman, and an outsider, to be in charge of the Zhou Family, the resistance and difficulties she encountered were probably not small at all.

And he couldn't provide help.

This caused a trace of guilt to surge in his heart.

"No, I am willing to be this Family Head." Lin Xi raised her head, her fair face extremely serious.

Zhou Luo smiled faintly and gently flicked her nose: "I promise you, after this matter is over, I will re-select the Family Head, and then you will accompany me to Qingyuan City to Cultivation properly."

Among his many wives and concubines, the one he owed the most to was probably the wife in his arms.

After understanding the other party's thoughts, he immediately made a guarantee.

"Husband, I can really be this Family Head."

But Lin Xi was afraid of disappointing him and still wanted to refute.

"Don't you want to accompany me?"

At this moment, Zhou Luo asked back.

Lin Xi was speechless immediately, she lowered her head and dared not look at the other party, just leaned against the broad chest and whispered softly: "I want to."

Zhou Luo smiled and rubbed her head, gently kissing her beautiful hair.

"Alright, I'm going to see that unfilial son."

After speaking, he let go of the other party.

Lin Xi wanted to follow, but Zhou Luo told her to wait in the room, he wanted to have a good private chat with his disappointing child.

To see if he had realized his mistake.
