Longevity Family: Let Her Live At The Beginning, Let Her Live

This is Zhang Ran's first time setting foot on the land of the Heavenly South Immortal Cultivation Domain. He arrived here on a divine ship, feeling a thousand emotions.

After landing, the two companions, Guan Yan and Guan Yan, politely bowed and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, thank you for your guidance on this journey. We may come to visit your Zhang family frequently in the future."

Before leaving, Guan Yan and Guan Yan bought two fourth-grade elixirs from Zhang Ran. They were very happy to hear that Zhang Ran was also skilled in the art of refining tools.

After inquiring, they found out that Zhang Ran was actually repairing a supreme treasure. This greatly impressed them. A fourth-grade formation master, a fourth-grade tool refiner, a fourth-grade alchemist, and a talisman master. Such talent would not go unnoticed in the Great Qian Dynasty. From then on, they had no complaints.

After the two left, Zhang Ran waved his hand, signaling the divine ship to continue forward and land above the Zhang family's residence. He let the Zhang family members handle the arrangements themselves, as there were several Core Formation sisters who could maintain order. He didn't need to worry about it.

The cultivators who had been waiting in front also approached.

"I could sense a golden light from afar. It must be Lord Zhang, Fellow Daoist Zhang," a middle-aged man in a black robe walked over with a smile. This person seemed to be the type with a smiling face and spoke very politely.

He was one of the two Nascent Soul cultivators.

"Please, come inside and tell me what you need," Zhang Ran didn't know much about the backgrounds of these people. He gestured for them to enter the house for a detailed discussion. Since he had become the lord of this land, he would definitely have to deal with many matters and the leaders of other forces.

The main hall of the Zhang family was more magnificent than before, and there was a five-thousand-acre square at the entrance.

These people were from nearby small clans and three peak Core Formation city lords.

The two Nascent Soul cultivators were the masters of two sects affiliated with the Great Qian Dynasty, the Jade Water Sect and the Yao Tian Gate.

Both of them were in the early stage of Nascent Soul cultivation. During their conversation, Zhang Ran could vaguely sense that these two seemed to be dissatisfied with him, but they were still very polite on the surface. However, he didn't feel like saying much either.

He couldn't keep showing off.

They had already known that this Lord Zhang was a top-tier fourth-grade alchemist, formation master, and tool refiner. They did their best to work with him, but his early Nascent Soul cultivation level didn't make them show the same obvious awe as they did towards other lords.

After some small talk, Zhang Ran finally sent them away.

"They are all people who don't want to contribute despite relying on the mountains of the Great Qian. These people," Zhang Ran shook his head. Many of them complained about their low income in recent years and whether the taxes could be reduced in the future.

Of course, Zhang Ran would not agree.

After sending them away, Zhang Ran finally had time to take a look at his new home and took a step towards the sky.

Looking at the countless busy figures below, Zhang Ran nodded in satisfaction. The mortal houses were larger than before, and the spiritual energy here was dense. Diseases would no longer recur, and lifespan would increase slightly.

The Qi Refining juniors had also found their own residences. Each person's room was equipped with a small Spirit Gathering formation, a cultivation room, and a small medicinal field.

Cultivating spiritual herbs in these fields would have a slower growth cycle compared to the spiritual fields, and the survival rate was not high. However, it would provide many opportunities for the juniors to develop.

The elite juniors had also found their own residences.

"Within ten years, we must select someone to inherit the true teachings of alchemy, tool refining, talisman crafting, and formations. Although the ladies also have some talent, they still need to bear children," Zhang Ran announced this news the next day. In the future, these true teachings would be specifically responsible for the Alchemy Hall or the Tool Refining Hall.

This way, these skills finally had a formal inheritance.

All the juniors were excited when they heard the news. The Patriarch was going to pass on his true teachings, even though it was not in the aspect of cultivation but in alchemy, tool refining, and other skills. It was still very exciting.

"Ten years, I won't cultivate during these ten years. I will study formations like crazy."

"Still, know your own limits. Diligence alone won't be enough. It really depends on talent."

After arriving at the new place, the Zhang family juniors quickly adapted to the environment.

Zhang Ran had also expanded the range of the cultivation rooms, adding the ones from before. Now, there were more than three hundred cultivation rooms in total.

Of course, the thirty rooms directly above the spiritual veins had the best effect.

Zhang Ran has already laid down the system-rewarded Vein of the Mortal Realm.

Zhang Ran estimates that it will take about a year for everything to become regular.

After all, the Task Hall of the Zhang family is the main source of income for the younger generation of the family. The sources of these tasks rely on nearby forces or cultivators who come to the Zhang family for help.

These things all require time to accumulate.

"Husband, why not let the younger generation of the Zhang family join the Great Qian Dynasty after graduating from the academy? This way, they can obtain more resources in the Great Qian Dynasty, contribute to the family, and in turn, the family can support their growth. Moreover, the Great Qian Dynasty is not without conflicts. As far as I know, they have been in constant struggle with the Great Yu Dynasty in the central region, as well as the Taiyi Sect." Yu Yan, who is familiar with the situation in the Great Qian Dynasty, came up with a good idea for Zhang Ran.

"And the Great Qian Dynasty also has the Great Qian Academy, where some outstanding younger generation can be sent."

"This method is really good. I was just worried about where to place my younger generation. The number of cultivators in the family is currently small, and many departments have not made progress, making it difficult to support their cultivation needs in large quantities." Zhang Ran's eyes immediately lit up.

Suddenly, a message came.

"Family Head, a few cultivators have come to visit. They are from the Myriad Treasures Chamber of Commerce in Heavenly River City and the Gong family."

"Myriad Treasures Chamber of Commerce?" Zhang Ran had seen this business association spread across many towns on the way, so its influence was quite deep.

The Gong family was directly ignored, just a small family with a Core Formation cultivator.

"Husband, the Myriad Treasures Chamber of Commerce is spread throughout the entire Heavenly South Immortal Cultivation Domain."

"Well, I understand. I'll go meet them personally."

The Zhang family's relocation has now settled without any risks.

However, Zhang Ran still has many matters to attend to in the Great Qian Dynasty.

As one of the titled kings of the Great Qian Dynasty, there will naturally be a ceremony held in the Great Qian Palace. The Great Qian Dynasty has a total of eight princes, including the prince of the Great Qian Dynasty and the princes from other clans.

Zhang Ran is the ninth prince.

The matter of Zhang Ran becoming a prince of the Great Qian Dynasty is still unknown to the world. After the ceremony in the Great Qian Dynasty, it will naturally become known to all. At that time, the name of the Zhang family in the Great Qian Dynasty will also spread.

This ceremony will be held in a month, as it will also give Zhang Ran time to arrange all the affairs of the family.

On the third day, five wedding sedans arrived together in the sky.

Zhang Ran greeted them with joy. They were five Core Formation female cultivators.

"The Great Qian Dynasty really keeps its promises," Zhang Ran praised.

These five Core Formation female cultivators were personally trained by the Great Qian Dynasty and were all experts in assassination. Zhang Ran then individually tested their strength, and they were all at the mid-Core Formation stage with abundant spiritual power. Some of them even had exceptional water-based cultivation techniques, which satisfied Zhang Ran.

After a few days, people from the Myriad Treasures Chamber of Commerce came again, bringing many orders for talismans, magic treasures, and pills.

A month quickly passed.

The Zhang family had two more children with spiritual roots, but none of them were exceptionally outstanding. Zhang Ran had already decided to prepare for the family's prosperity for thousands of years here, so there was no rush.

"Yu Yan, Senior Sister, Third Senior Sister, you must come along," above the Zhang family, there was a magnificent golden carriage. This was Zhang Ran's exclusive carriage as a prince, accompanied by ten Core Formation stage dragon-pulled carriages.

This time, Zhang Ran decided to bring six wives with him to participate in the enfeoffment ceremony of the Great Qian Dynasty. Yang Huanyu, Yu Yan, Senior Sister, Third Senior Sister, and Su Su, Wang Ling.

This Heavenly Demon Temple's saint tortured Zhang Ran for a whole night before he agreed. It's really unclear what she was thinking. It's quite strange for a saint from the Heavenly Demon Temple to appear in the Great Qian Palace.

Naturally, there were also some younger generations following along, such as Zhang Yin.

The Great Qian Palace was already crowded with various forces. The Imperial City had nearly one-third more people than usual, all here to see who this new prince of the Great Qian Dynasty was.

"The Great Qian Dynasty hasn't enfeoffed an outsider for over three thousand years. This time, it's going to be a grand event," some cultivators in a tavern in the Imperial City were discussing this matter.
