After being reborn, I took my childhood sweetheart to cultivate immortality.

From that day on, no other forces came to the Xu family. According to Xu Qingman's plan, the Xu family became the most mysterious cultivation family in the entire Lin'an City.

With nothing major to worry about, Xu Qingman did not go into seclusion, but only occasionally cultivated briefly.

In the rest of the time, besides guiding the twins Xu Shunuo and Xu Shuyang in their cultivation, he would occasionally give guidance to the group of people he had recruited in Shili Town.

With her guidance, Xu Shunuo and her younger brother made rapid progress in their cultivation.

Although his acquired spiritual roots did not progress as quickly as his elder brother and sister, he still achieved Foundation Establishment at the age of eight and entered the Golden Core stage at the age of thirteen.

Xu Qingyao, due to the limitation of having two spiritual roots, is slightly inferior to her two nephews who are about the same age, but she has now reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment.

The one who reaped the greatest rewards was Xu Qinghe, who successfully advanced last month and became a mid-level cultivator in the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

The group of people recruited in Shili Town has now produced its first Golden Core cultivator, Shen Wanxing, the eldest grandson of the village chief of Qingshi Village.

Xu Qingman saw that Shen Wanxing was not only intelligent, but also very tactful and adaptable. He had methods but never resorted to underhanded means, making him a truly rare talent.

When he grows up, he will definitely become a great help to her children, so Xu Qingman took him as her first personal disciple.

Xu Shuyi and her brother are fine, but their own strength is even greater than their parents'. They might even ascend to the upper realm before Xu Qingman and her husband in the future.

Although Xu Shunuo and Xu Shuyang are undoubtedly considered exceptionally talented by others, they may find themselves isolated and helpless once Xu Qingman and her husband, along with Xu Shuyi and her brother, ascend to immortality.

As their parents' direct disciples, they are certainly more reliable than others.

Xu Qingman and her husband had long planned to take on more disciples like these, so that they could serve as the greatest support for their children and grandchildren.

Everyone in the Xu family has made significant progress, except for Xu Jingheng and his wife, and the elderly Xu Maoye and his wife, whose cultivation has remained stagnant for many years.

It seems that starting cultivation at an advanced age is indeed a major disadvantage; the later one progresses, the more difficult it becomes to advance.

A few years later, Xu Shuyi and her brother also successively advanced to the Divine Realm.

From then on, the Xu family had a powerful lineup of one Nascent Soul cultivator, three Divine Soul cultivators, and one Out-of-Body cultivator.

In this way, the Xu family is now on par with the two largest cultivation families in Lin'an City in terms of strength.

Although Xu Qingman is still in the late stage of the Nascent Soul stage, she has reached the critical point of advancing to the Integration stage, lacking only sufficient spiritual energy.

With the Azure Profound Space and a large number of top-grade spirit stones, what she lacked was never spiritual energy, but rather more mystical things like divine sense and mental state.

After years of accumulation, she has gained ample spiritual energy. Now, she only needs someone to protect her after Yu Jinchen emerges from seclusion so she can confidently absorb enough spiritual energy to prepare for the tribulation of advancing to the Integration stage.

"Mother, I want to go to the Luotian Mountains with my older brother and sister to gather herbs."

“Mom, I want to go too. Please let us go. My second brother and I haven’t been out since we moved here.”

As Xu Qingman was thinking about the future development of her family, she was approached by Xu Shunu and his brother.

Xu Qingman shook her head and laughed, "Alright, stop shaking me. You're a grown man now, how dare you act like a child with your mother?"

Xu Shuyang said, "Hehe, no matter how old we are, we are still our mother's children. What's wrong with being a little spoiled in front of our mother? My eldest sister is already in her fifties, but she still acts spoiled with our mother."

When the conversation turned to her, Xu Shuyin pretended to be angry and said, "Xu Shuyang, are you asking for a beating? Be careful, or I'll get angry and won't take you guys out."

Xu Shunu said, "Big sister, I wasn't talking about you. Why don't you leave Shuyang behind and take me with you? That way, you and big brother will have an easier time."

"Second brother, you're so disloyal! We should be on the same side, how can you bear to abandon your dear little brother?"

Upon hearing his second brother's suggestion to abandon him, Xu Shuyang cried out in disbelief.

Xu Shunu pouted, "Hmph, who told you to offend Big Sister?"

Seeing that her two silly younger brothers were about to start arguing, Xu Shuyi frowned and said, "Alright, stop arguing. If you keep arguing, neither of you will be going."

After yelling at his two younger brothers, Xu Shuyi said to his mother, "Mother, let them go. With Shuyin and me keeping an eye on them, they won't cause much trouble. Besides, we don't plan to go deep into the mountains, so there won't be any danger."

Xu Qingman nodded, "Okay, you guys go ahead. Be careful. If the younger brothers misbehave outside, you older brothers and sisters can just give them a good beating."

"Great! Let's go out and play!"

"Oh, oh, oh, we're going to gather herbs!"

With their mother's permission, the two brothers shouted excitedly.

Unlike when Xu Shuyi and her siblings were young, their parents, Xu Qingman, often took them out to travel or explore secret realms. They rarely had the chance to go out, so they would jump for joy.

Headache from the two girls' screams, Xu Shuyin angrily warned, "Stop making noise, or you'll both be out of the house if you disturb Auntie."

Xu Shunu quickly covered her mouth, "Oh, okay, I won't say anything more."

Xu Shuyang quickly covered his mouth and whispered, "I won't say anything more, big brother, big sister, let's go quickly, or we'll be in trouble when Aunt comes out."

Seeing the four siblings disappear in the blink of an eye, Xu Qingman found it somewhat amusing.

It wasn't that Xu Qingyao was spoiled or difficult to get along with, but rather that her cultivation level was still low, and the elderly couple, Xu Maoye and his wife, always doted on her like the apple of their eye, and simply couldn't bear to let her go out and suffer.

But the little girl is also very ambitious and always wants to go out and explore the world. If she finds out that Xu Qingman and her siblings are going out, there's no way she'll get rid of them.

To everyone's surprise, Xu Qingman was too quick to relax. Hearing the commotion in the front yard, Xu Qingyao had already come out.

"Big sister, I think I just heard Shunuo and Shuyang about to go out. Where are they?"

"Yaoyao didn't cultivate today? Shu Nuo and Shu Yang went out with Shu Yi and the other two."

Hearing that her nephews had all gone out and hadn't called her, Xu Qingyao's eyes immediately welled up with tears.

"They went too far. They went out to play without inviting me. Don't they even consider me their aunt? They have no respect for their elders at all."

Hearing the child say this, Xu Qingman found it somewhat amusing, but she bit her lip, not daring to actually laugh.

She even said disrespectful things to her elders, so she must be really angry. If I laugh again, the little girl might cry.

"Yaoyao, don't be angry. You can still go out and play after you reach the Golden Core stage."

"Why not now?"

"Well, it's because our family has a rule that those below the Golden Core stage are not allowed to go out for training. Didn't you see that Grandpa and Grandma didn't go out either?"

Hearing her older sister say this, Xu Qingyao prepared to go back, but before leaving, she said, "Big sister, I also need to go into seclusion to cultivate. I won't come out of seclusion until I form my Golden Core."

Xu Qingman suppressed a laugh and said, "Okay, Yao Yao, keep it up! I know you can do it."
