At this time, at the home of village chief Shen Changsheng.

"Waaaaah, Daddy, are our two children really leaving to go to that cultivation world? Will we ever see each other again in this lifetime?"

"You ignorant old woman, going to the cultivation world is something many people would never dream of in ten lifetimes. What's there to cry about?"

After scolding his wife, Shen Changsheng said to his two sons, "After Wanxing and Wanrong leave, you two should hurry up and have a few more children."

The eldest son of the Shen family said, "Dad, my second brother and I each have two children now. Didn't you say before that we shouldn't have too many children? Why are you saying this now..."

Before his eldest son could finish speaking, Shen Changsheng pointed at him and started cursing, "You idiot, you're nothing like your old man."

The reason we didn't let you have more children before was because our family was too poor, and we were worried that it would be difficult to raise too many children.

Now that we have the 100 taels of silver given by the Immortal Master, plus what I've earned from him in the past six months, our family has 120 taels of silver. Raising a few more children won't be difficult.

"Besides, our two older brothers have such excellent spiritual roots, the two younger ones certainly won't be much worse. Once their older brother becomes successful, we'll find an opportunity to take them out one by one, and then our family will rise to prominence, won't it?"

"Grandfather, rest assured, once your grandson and Wanrong have learned real skills, we will definitely find a way to come back and support our younger siblings. We will make the Shen family better and better."

Shen Wanxing was intelligent, and as Shen Changsheng's most valued eldest grandson, he was the one who understood his grandfather's thoughts best.

Although he didn't quite understand what his brother meant, Shen Wanrong, who always listened to his brother, nodded and said that he would do his best to take care of his younger siblings, just like his brother.

Shen Changsheng nodded with satisfaction, "Hahaha, very good, as expected of my Shen family's son and grandson."

This scene plays out in almost every family with a child who is going to cultivate immortality, only the way it happens is different.

On the day of departure, the foot of Qingshi Village was filled with parents and relatives who came to see their children off.

Amidst their reluctant gazes, the sixty-eight children boarded the flying boat together and flew towards the East China Sea.

Even those dozen or so who had not yet been able to cultivate Qi, knowing they would have to serve as servants, all returned without exception.

It must be said that no one would be willing to give up the opportunity to stay by the immortal master's side, even if it meant serving as a slave for life. This is a wish that many people yearn for but cannot obtain.

And so, Xu Qingman and her husband, along with dozens of children from the mountains, crossed the barrier and boarded the Yunying Sect's sea-crossing spaceship to reach the other side of the East China Sea.

Along the way, the dozens of newbie cultivators not only encountered terrifying monsters, but also ruthless evil cultivators.

There are also those cultivators who fight tooth and nail for cultivation resources, even betraying their own family members.

After entering the Xu family compound, Yu Jinchen asked everyone in the family to come out and introduce them to all the masters of the Xu family.

Those who had already drawn in Qi were divided into two teams to form the Xu Family Guard Team. Two older children with good aptitude were then selected from among them to serve as the captains of the two teams.

Furthermore, Yu Jinchen also asked the two team leaders to discuss among themselves how to take turns on duty and what areas they would be responsible for.

As for the remaining fifteen who had not yet cultivated their Qi, they already knew when they arrived that they would become servants of the Xu family.

Yu Jinchen also selected a boy named Chen Wansong from among these people to serve as the housekeeper.

After the Xu family mansion was built, Xu Qingman and her husband discussed with their family that Xu Qingman would serve as the head of the family when the Xu family was in the public eye.

Originally, the couple wanted Xu Jingheng to become the head of the family, but he refused, saying that the entire Xu family now relied on Xu Qingman and her husband, and there was no reason for him to be the head of the family.

If Xu Qingman ascends to immortality in the future, or no longer wishes to be the head of the family, she can pass the position to her own children and grandchildren.

With a family head in place, there is a need for at least one elder, and Yu Jinchen is the Xu family's eldest elder.

As for the relationships within one's own family, things will remain the same; there's no need to concern ourselves with such things as status.

"Shen Wanjie, Shen Wanyun, and Lin Wansong, please stay here. As for the rest of you, please follow the young master to your future residence."

After those people left with Xu Shuyi, Yu Jinchen said to the remaining three people, "From now on, Shen Wanjie will serve as the captain of the first guard team, and Shen Wanyun will serve as the captain of the second guard team."

The rotation schedule, which team will train and which will be on duty, you two can discuss it yourselves later. However, you need to submit the arrangement form to me or the head of the family for review tomorrow.

Lin Wansong, on the other hand, served as the housekeeper, managing the remaining fourteen people and arranging for them to take care of the Xu family's food, clothing, housing, and transportation, as well as the reception of guests.

Starting this month, the guard captain will receive a monthly stipend of two mid-grade spirit stones, and each team member will receive one. This is a two-year stipend; you two should keep them for now and distribute them on time each month.

As he spoke, Yu Jinchen handed over two storage bags and taught them how to use them.

Lin Wansong also received a storage bag, but their monthly allowance was only half that of the guards.

As for any expenses that require the steward's help, Yu Jinchen told him that he could apply to the couple at any time, even when they were not home or in seclusion, and he could ask any of the household staff.

The couple invested so much in training these people; it's impossible that they had no rules at all.

From the moment the first one formally entered the Qi Refining stage, they had all sworn an oath to the Heavenly Dao, guaranteeing that they would never betray the Xu family and that they would unconditionally help the Xu family whenever needed.

Furthermore, before those people left, Yu Jinchen warned them that no one who enters the Xu family is allowed to fight amongst themselves, regardless of the reason. If there are any problems, they can be handled by the two captains and the steward.

Anyone who disobeys will be severely punished.

After arranging everything, the couple finally had a few days to spend with their children.

Seeing that his parents finally had time to spend with him, little Xu Shuyang quickly hugged them and acted spoiled, "Daddy, Mommy, why were you gone for so long? You didn't even take me and my brother with you."

Xu Shunu nodded, "Yes, Father, Mother, we miss you so much."

Xu Shuyi pouted, "I'm not like you two little potatoes who need their parents to accompany them."

Xu Shuyang said angrily, "Big brother is bad. You're the little potato. I wasn't talking about you. I was talking about second brother, okay?"

Hahaha…

Seeing that their older brother and sister were laughing at them, the two little ones became embarrassed and chased after them angrily.

After that, the two went into seclusion again to cultivate and improve their cultivation level. Otherwise, Xu Shuyi and her brother would catch up with them soon.

Only half a year has passed since he left, and that little brat Xu Shuyi's cultivation is already on the verge of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage.

It's understandable that they feel a little embarrassed that their child caught up with them so easily; after all, they have their pride.

Although Xu Shuyi and her brother would catch up with them, or even surpass them, sooner or later, they both hoped that they would not lose so badly.

Otherwise, wouldn't those two little brats be flying to the heavens?
