Chen Yi had thought about this before. That's why, when he originally left, he did not forcibly take Zhao Chengjing with him.
People's thoughts can change. If Chen Yi forcefully took her away from her family, not to ntion the Zhao Family would definitely oppose,
Even Zhao Chengjing herself might harbor resentnt against him after many years. Chen Yi could not make any guarantees about this.
Love could be impulsive, and Zhao Chengjing's roots were still in the Zhao Family.
In his response to Zhao Chengjing's letter, Chen Yi didn't say much. He just ntioned that he would attend the celebration of Zhao Chengyu's advancent to Foundation Establishnt on Zhao Family Island one year later. Then he would et Zhao Chengjing.
The last letter was from Song Chengcheng of Qinglong Island, and she brought good news.
She ntioned that Wang Tengfei had co to see her more than a year earlier, after he erged from the Secret Realm. This ti, Wang Tengfei had obtained a Sword Cultivator heritage in the Secret Realm,
Which had enabled him to successfully join the official Law Enforcent Team of the Ten Thousand Islands Alliance. He was now sowhat free from the constraints of his original master and had a semi-independent status.
Song Chengcheng noted that Wang Tengfei's current strength was impressive, and he was likely to succeed in Foundation Establishnt soon. Perhaps Wang Tengfei would give Chen Yi a surprise.
Chen Yi guessed that Song Chengcheng probably knew Wang Tengfei's next move but couldn't detail in the letter. He might co to the eastern area of the Ten Thousand Islands Alliance, could he even co to Wangyue Island where Chen Yi was?
Song Chengcheng probably hadn't heard about Zhao Chengyu's successful Foundation Establishnt when she wrote to Chen Yi, hence she didn't ntion any gathering on Zhao Family Island.
In the letter, Song Chengcheng did comnd Chen Yi's choice of coming to Wangyue Island, indicating that it was one of the few opportunities he had to establish his Foundation.
Song Chengcheng assured Chen Yi that their mutual debts were still valid; Chen Yi should ntion as soon as there is a need. Also, if Chen Yi encountered danger or imnse difficulty, he could ssage her through the Qinglong Island Office in Wangyue City.
She would try her best to help Chen Yi, even if she couldn't co at once, she could ask her fellow disciples to help Chen Yi solve any pressing problems.
With the backing of this letter, Chen Yi was assured he would be received at the Qinglong Island's office even in an ergency.
Although the people there might not recognize Chen Yi, they had to give Song Chengcheng face.
As for the favor from Song Chengcheng,
Chen Yi did have a need right now. However, he figured Song Chengcheng would likely go to Zhao Family Island next year, so asking her in person then wouldn't be too late.
These friends, including Wang Tengfei, Chen Yi needed to maintain a good relationship with each one of them.
They had all persevered till now since the immortal seed era, their characters had stood the test of ti.
Moreover, apart from Liu Huo, now two people had established their Foundation, and even Wang Tengfei was close to Foundation Establishnt.
These were certainly valuable resources for Chen Yi!
If he went out and presented himself as a Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer cultivator with three Foundation Establishnt Period Brothers, who would dare to disrespect him?
Of course, Chen Yi was not a rash person either. Having more friends would always smooth the path.
While his cultivation level was currently low, he possessed knowledge from two worlds and practiced the Turtle Breathing Technique, promising a high potential for growth.
As long as he continued progressing steadily, he could ultimately grow to great heights.
At this stage of lower power, his brothers' assistance ant a lot to Chen Yi. In future, he planned to return the favor manifold.
.....
Half a year later, Chen Yi was practicing at ho,
When he suddenly received an invitation from his neighbor Liu Peng for his 38th birthday celebration.
Cultivators typically celebrated landmark birthdays like 50, 100, 200. This was the first ti Chen Yi heard about celebrating a 38th birthday,
Many neighbors and others from further streets had co to participate in the celebration.
Of course, they had co for Liu Peng's father, a second-tier Alchemist capable of creating Foundation Establishnt Pills.
Liu Peng was well aware of this, and that's why he would organize an event every two or three years, sending invitations all around. Anyone having demands would co and present a generous gift.
Chen Yi too attended. He chose this place primarily because of Liu Peng's father. He wanted to secretly observe the process of creating Foundation Establishnt Pills, and also hoped to obtain an inferior-quality Foundation Establishnt Pill as a decoy.
"Alchemist Liu, this is high-quality first-tier spiritual rice from my hotown, a total of 30 pounds. Give it a try."
"Thank you, Brother Li."
"Alchemist Liu, happy birthday. Here is a 50-year-old Red Ginseng that I collected over the past few years. You are an Alchemist, and I believe you can utilize it."
"Thank you, Daoist Wang."
At the door, Liu Peng greeted all the guests with a warm smile,
He actually earned quite a bit from these parties every two or three years, aside from his daily pill-making duties. Because of these gatherings, he had gained substantial wealth, allowing him to marry nurous beautiful consorts and lead an increasingly comfortable life.
It was all thanks to having such an impressive father.
Chen Yi felt a tinge of envy, although he didn't dwell on it,
He walked up and handed Liu Peng two jade boxes:
"Brother Liu, happy birthday. These are two Beauty Pills. I believe they will be useful to you as you're surrounded by fairies."
Upon hearing this, Liu Peng's eyes lit up. He had heard about the Beauty Pills from the neighbors, it was Chen Yi's exclusive specialty. The effects of these pills for reducing age and improving appearance were truly powerful. Liu Peng had been craving them for quite a while,
With these two pills, he could impress Fifth Lady and Seventh Lady, the recent concubines of his father. Once these two ladies were pleased and took extra care of his father, Liu Peng could probably get another chance to ask his father to concoct the Foundation Establishnt Pills. If this happened, all his plans would fall into place.
He was acutely aware that most of the guests who had gathered were here for his father's Foundation Establishnt Pills.
