Chapter 579 The Troubles of the Su Family Ancestor [Subscription Request]

The world is clear and bright, worship Taoism and protect the family, keep a righteous mind and think about the source, and have lofty ambitions. These sixteen generation names were originally decided by Zhou Mingde.

It has been nearly three hundred years since the Zhou family moved to Jingguo, and the newest monks have already been ranked at the "Gao" generation.

When the cultivators of the "Yuan" generation appear, these sixteen generations will not be enough.

Therefore, Zhou Mingde already had the idea of ​​continuing with more generation names to be used for naming his descendants in the future.

Originally, he wanted to entrust this important task to Zhou Chun.

Because it also represents a kind of inheritance.

At the beginning, he, Zhou Mingde, led the Zhou family monks to Jiufeng Ridge in Jingguo, and overcame all difficulties to establish the family foundation, so he set down sixteen generation names.

Now, after six generations of hard work, the Zhou family, under the leadership of Zhou Chun, has finally prospered to the most prosperous period since the establishment of the family. They have achieved what no ancestors had ever done, and the family strength is unprecedentedly strong.

The task of revising the family tree and continuing the generation name should be completed by Zhou Chun.

However, Zhou Chun thought that since elders such as Zhou Mingde and Zhou Daoyi were still alive, it would be inappropriate for him, a younger generation, to interfere in matters concerning family inheritance.

Therefore, he only said that he could help to discuss it, but that was all.

I don’t know if it was the appearance of Zhou Zhiying, a member of the clan with excellent spiritual roots, that sucked away the luck of one or two generations.

Among the "Cun" and "Gao" generations after her, no one with talent worth mentioning has been found so far. Compared with the previous generations, the gap is really obvious.

Zhou Chun and other senior family members had no solution to this kind of thing.

So at this time, we can see the benefits of having a Jindan stage cultivator in the family.

Jindan-stage cultivators have a long lifespan. For a family with a Jindan-stage cultivator at the head, even if there are no worthwhile talents in the family for two or three generations, the impact on the entire family will not be too great, and the tolerance rate can be said to be extremely high.

On the other hand, for families that do not have a Jindan-stage cultivator in charge, once two or three generations become mediocre and incompetent, the family will most likely have no successors, which will directly lead to the decline of the family!
Several Jindan-stage cultivators of the Zhou family are still in their prime. If nothing unexpected happens, they can protect the family for hundreds of years, or even longer.

Among the younger generations who are much younger than them, there are also outstanding members such as Zhou Xinyan, Zhou Yuanyuan, Zhou Yuanlian, Zhou Zhiqian, etc., who are expected to form an elixir.

Not to mention Zhou Zhiying, a genius with top-grade spiritual roots who is bound to be able to form a golden elixir.

Therefore, there are no talented people among the new second and third generations of the family, which will not have much impact on the family. In a sense, it can even be said that it helps the family save some expenses.

After all, if someone has good qualifications, the family will definitely find ways to support him so as not to waste his qualifications.

But if you are mediocre, you can't blame your family for not supporting you.

This time, the Zhou family took the lead in organizing the martial arts competition. It was precisely because the Zhou family cultivators of the "Cun" and "Gao" generations were not very competitive that many of the Zhou family elders who were watching the competition became angry.

After all, before this, whenever the Zhou family held similar events, they were always able to take the lead and surpass other families.

Especially this time there are Jindan stage cultivators watching the battle.

However, Zhou Chun doesn't care much about this face, as long as the Zhou family is not at the bottom.

Zhou Zhiying's move was completely unexpected and unruly.

After patching up Zhou Zhiying's cultivation, Zhou Chun looked at the Su family's ancestor and smiled gently, saying, "It's rare for the ancestor to go out. You should stay in my Zhou family for a few more days. I have some good tea and wine that I got during my travels. It's just right for me to invite the ancestor to taste them together."

"Really? Then I, the ancestor, must taste it carefully."

The Su family's ancestor raised his eyebrows and immediately responded with a smile.

In the next few days, the ancestor of the Su family really stayed as a guest at the Zhou family, drinking tea and wine with Zhou Chun and Zhou Mingde every day and talking about life.

After five days of this, after tasting all the spiritual teas and wines of the Zhou family, and seeing that the two Jindan-stage cultivators of the Zhou family looked calm, the ancestor of the Su family could only smile bitterly and shook his head, saying, "Forget it, since none of you are going to speak, then I will have to speak myself!"

Seeing him like this, Zhou Mingde couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Haha, fellow Daoist Su, if you have anything to say, just speak up. With the relationship between our two families, is there anything that is inconvenient to say?"

Zhou Chun also nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, if you have any worries, please speak up. Even if I can't help, I can still give you some advice!"

After hearing what the two said, the Su family's ancestor's face became even more bitter.

He could not help but sigh and said, "Alas, this matter is a family shame. If I had any other solution, I would never mention it to outsiders!"

After saying that, he started talking about his own troubles.

It turned out that what he was worried about now was not the internal affairs of the Su family, but what happened to Su Yunniang!
Before Su Yunniang succeeded in forming the elixir, she was the lover of the current leader of the Yuelun Sect, Baiyue Zhenren. She was able to form the elixir successfully with the help of this person.

And seeing that her former lover had gone one step further and become the headmaster of the Yuelun Sect, Su Yunniang began to think about taking the position and becoming the headmaster's wife!

With her cultivation level at the Jindan stage and having once been the lover of the current Taoist Master Baiyue, becoming his Taoist partner can be considered a successful achievement.

But the problem is that the current Taoist Baiyue originally had a Taoist partner, and his original Taoist partner was the descendant of the Yuanying stage Taoist who died before.

Even though her Taoist partner had died in the process of forming the elixir, it would be difficult for Su Yunniang to become a regular Taoist because of this relationship.

After all, as the head master, he must set an example and put the overall interests of the sect first.

If the current Master Baiyue were to promote Su Yunniang to be his Taoist partner now, he would definitely offend the family of his former Taoist partner.

Although the family has only one cultivator in the early Jindan stage to carry the responsibility because of the death of a Yuanying stage real person, the affection left by the ancestors is still there, and it still has considerable power and voice in the Yuelun Sect.

Moreover, the current Master Baiyue was able to finally succeed in ascending to the throne thanks to the remaining influence of the fallen Master in the Nascent Soul stage. It can be said that he himself is in debt to the family of his former Taoist partner.

Under such circumstances, Su Yunniang's request to become a regular employee was naturally rejected by the other party.

But Su Yunniang is not so easy to compromise and give up!

She believed that the reason why the current Master Baiyue rejected her was that he was worried about the pressure from the family of her former Taoist partner, although this was indeed the case.

This made her feel that both she and the Su family were looked down upon.

So she found the Su family's ancestor and Su Yuzhen, and asked the Su family to fully support her in taking the position of the headmaster's wife, and promised that as long as she could take this position, she would do her best to seek benefits for the Su family in the future.

But the Su family alone is obviously not able to influence the will and thoughts of the Moon Worshiping Master.

Therefore, Su Yunniang invited the ancestor of the Su family to come to the Zhou family to find Zhou Chun and Zhou Mingde, and persuade the Zhou family to support her to take the throne.

In this way, including herself, there are seven Jindan stage cultivators and a fourth-order thunder dragon.

And the Moon Wheel Sect now has less than 30 Jindan-stage cultivators! Su Yunniang herself felt that if the Zhou family was willing to support her as the new leader, she would be able to force the current Moon Worshipping Master to compromise.

So the Su family's ancestor made this trip to the Zhou family.

After listening to the story told by the ancestor of the Su family, Zhou Chun and Zhou Mingde could not help but look at each other in shock.

What a guy! Zhou Chun exclaimed in his heart, what a guy!
He never imagined that Su Yunniang could stage such a palace drama.

Even though he knew before that Su Yunniang had had an affair with a certain Jindan elder in the Yuelun Sect before she reached the Jindan stage, he had never imagined that the person she had an affair with was actually the current Zhenren Baiyue!
Su Yunniang had obviously concealed this matter very carefully, and it is estimated that Su Yuzhen might not have known about it before.

But in Zhou Chun's opinion, Su Yunniang's desire to become a mistress this time was really outrageous!

From a man's perspective, if he were the current Master Baiyue, he would never compromise with Su Yunniang.

After all, whether in terms of cultivation strength or power, Master Baiyue is stronger than several Jindan-stage cultivators from the Su and Zhou families. Could it be that the Jindan-stage cultivators from the Su and Zhou families really dare to go against the orders of the upper sect for the sake of Su Yunniang!
Zhou Chun didn't know whether Su Yunniang was confused by the words "Madam of the Headmaster" or whether she was resentful because she couldn't get what she asked for, and came up with this idea out of resentment.

But he knew that this was something that should never be done. If it was done, the harm would far outweigh the benefits!

Not to mention anything else, just look at the history of the previous dynasties that he knew, among all the examples where concubines in the palace relied on the power of their natal families to forcibly ascend to the throne, there were very few cases where their natal families ended up with a good ending.

So he would never let the Zhou family get involved in such a dangerous matter.

Although he made the decision immediately in his mind, Zhou Chun did not express his opinion right away.

Instead, he looked at each other first, communicated with Zhou Mingde privately, and reached a consensus among themselves.

After reaching a consensus with Zhou Mingde, Zhou Chun looked at the Su family ancestor calmly and asked, "Ancestor, what do you think now? Are you ready to fully support her?"

"I am also in a dilemma about this matter!"

The Su family patriarch sighed and said helplessly, "Yunniang is determined to accomplish this. If I don't support her, I'm afraid she will ignore me in the future. She is definitely capable of doing this!"

"But I also know that this kind of thing is like forcing a melon to grow sweet. Not to mention that the chances of accomplishing this are slim, even if it is really accomplished, it would be like driving a thorn in the heart of the headmaster, and it would also deeply offend the powerful Qu family!"

At this point, he looked at Zhou Chun with a worried look on his face and said, "Zhengchun, you usually have the most ideas. This time, I, the ancestor, have no other options. I just hope you can help me think of a win-win solution to resolve this matter!"

Obviously, he knew in his heart that it was unrealistic to expect the Zhou family to help Su Yunniang with all their strength.

And his attitude also made Zhou Chun feel relieved.

In Zhou Chun's opinion, the most troublesome part of this matter was not how to persuade Su Yunniang to give up her plan, but the opinion of the Su family's ancestor.

If the Su family's ancestor is unable to figure things out for a moment and is blinded by the benefits of Su Yunniang becoming the headmaster's wife and wants to fully support Su Yunniang's promotion to the position, then both he and the Zhou family will be in a difficult situation.

After all, the Su family's ancestor and Su Yuzhen had put in a lot of effort to kill the traitor Yu Jinghua, and they could be said to have done a great favor to the Zhou family.

Now that the Su family's ancestor is awake, everything will be easy.

Zhou Chun immediately expressed his opinion: "I think this matter cannot be forced. Otherwise, even if it succeeds temporarily, it will backfire and make our two families fall into a hopeless situation!"

"Yes, that's what I think too."

The Su family's ancestor nodded and expressed his agreement with Zhou Chun's statement.

Seeing that he agreed, Zhou Chun asked him, "Has my aunt ever told the ancestor why she wants to become a Taoist partner with Master Baiyue at this time? Is it really just for the so-called empty title of the headmaster's wife?"

Hearing Zhou Chun's question, the Su family's ancestor immediately smiled bitterly and replied, "She did say this. After she successfully formed the elixir, she had this idea. However, the immortal was still alive at that time, so she naturally didn't dare to mention it!"

"Now that the Immortal has passed away for decades, she thought that the affection and residual influence left by the other party during his lifetime should fade. In addition, the Immortal Baiyue was promoted to the head of the sect, and his status increased greatly. She decided to officially push forward and complete this matter!"

This answer was exactly what Zhou Chun had expected. If there was no real love between them, there would be no need for Su Yunniang to do this just for the title of the headmaster's wife.

After all, her current status as the elder of the Moon Wheel Sect already gives her a very high status in Jing Country.

Unfortunately, Master Baiyue is obviously not an emotional person, and he will not damage his own reputation for this matter like Su Yunniang.

Maybe in the other party's eyes, supporting Su Yunniang to successfully form the elixir was already worthy of this relationship and worthy of Su Yunniang!

In short, from Zhou Chun's perspective today, Su Yunniang's feelings were ultimately misplaced!
At that moment, he could not help but say to the Su family ancestor: "But my aunt should also know that since Master Baiyue does not agree to this matter, even if he has no intention of marrying her, she is also a dignified Jindan stage cultivator. Is it necessary for her to be so shameless and stick to him?"

Hearing this, the Su family's ancestor couldn't help but clapped his hands and shouted, "Now the problem lies here. The Moon Worshiper's tone was ambiguous. He didn't reject her directly, but only expressed his own concerns and asked her to wait a few more years!"

"This made her still have illusions and created obstacles in her understanding. She thought that Master Baiyue was hesitant and did not agree to become her Taoist partner because she felt that she could not provide any help. So he wanted to get our two families to support her!"

At this point, the Su family ancestor also said with a depressed look on his face: "This matter, the old man and Yu Zhen can be said to have explained the whole story to her in detail, but she has always been smart, but now she simply can't listen to it. Instead, she suspects that the old man is timid and unwilling to help her!"

"That's really difficult to deal with!"

Zhou Chun murmured to himself, feeling somewhat troubled.

Zhou Chun had heard of many similar cases like Su Yunniang's in his previous life, and they all ended up harming their relatives, friends and themselves.

Solving this problem is neither difficult nor easy.

The best and simplest way is undoubtedly to let that Moon Worshiper reject her directly, or marry her directly.

But obviously both of these things are difficult to do now.

The Moon Worshiper must be familiar with Su Yunniang's personality. The reason why he did not reject her directly was probably because he was worried that after the rejection, Su Yunniang would turn love into hate and cause trouble for him.

After all, Su Yunniang is now also a Jindan-stage cultivator, and also an elder of the same sect. If she is bent on revenge against him, it will cause him a headache.

And if he were to directly marry Su Yunniang as his Taoist partner, there would definitely be no hope.

Zhou Chun didn't believe that the other party would destroy his own Great Wall and offend those who supported him to the position soon after taking office, thus ruining his own reputation.

This simplest route doesn't work. If we want Su Yunniang to give up the idea, but we also can't let her be blinded by hatred and try to take revenge on Master Baiyue with all her strength, it will be really difficult.

After Zhou Chun pondered for a while, he still couldn't think of any good solution, so he looked at the Su family's ancestor and said, "Perhaps professional matters should be asked to professionals!"

"We are not people who are burdened by relationships, so we may not be able to think of a way to have the best of both worlds. Why not make up a story and ask those who have rich experience in relationships for their opinions and views? Maybe it will work wonders!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the reactions of the Su family's ancestor and Zhou Mingde were suddenly completely opposite.
