Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system

In the world of cultivation, life span is linked to one's cultivation level and there is a positive correlation between them.

Ordinary people are only in their teens and centenarians are very rare.

For cultivators, the Qi Refining stage is 150 years old; the Foundation Establishment stage is 300 years old; the Golden Core stage is 500 years old; the Nascent Soul stage is 800 years old; the Spirit Transformation stage is 1,200 years old; the Mahayana stage is 1,500 years old; and the He Dao stage is 2,000 years old.

Lifespan does not necessarily increase according to this rule, because the method of cultivation, the level of cultivation, and one's own exact strength will all affect lifespan.

But currently the mainstream view in the entire cultivation continent is that the above lifespans are not much different after adding or subtracting them.

However, these have nothing to do with Shen Yao for the time being, because with Shen Yao's qualifications and prospects, she will at most linger in the early or middle stages of foundation building, and this is under the premise that she has some fortuitous encounters.

If she had no adventures and lived an ordinary life, then she would most likely be in the late stage of Qi Refining or the great perfection of Qi Refining.

Hey

Sad.

Thinking about these things in her mind, Shen Yao's mood has been low.

After all, how long you can live in a world depends entirely on your physical condition after traveling through it.

Shen Yao cheered herself up, got out of bed, walked to the bronze mirror beside her and looked at herself in the mirror.

The bronze mirror was polished very smoothly, but it still seemed a little unreal to Shen Yao.

In order to confirm her own appearance with her own eyes, Shen Yao had to stretch out her hand and make a spell to condense a water mirror the size of a washbasin.

In an instant, a classical beauty with an oval face appeared before him.

Pretty!

The facial shape of Shen Yao's body is that of a standard classical beauty.

She has a delicate nose, cherry lips, dark eyebrows like distant mountains, and black hair that falls to her waist. She is simply perfect.

Even in the world of cultivation where there are many handsome men and beautiful women, Shen Yao's beauty is rare.

No wonder Shen Yao’s daily allowance is not as good as those of the top people in the Shen family, but it is not much different.

The people of the Shen family still have hope for Shen Yao, even if this hope is not in cultivation.

The thin water mirror quickly dissipated before his eyes like a wisp of green smoke.

Shen Yao stretched her body, then took out the reward she had earned earlier from the system space.

Put all the beauty pills, rejuvenating pills and the like into your mouth and eat them.

'But forget about the deodorant pills. This world is a bit dangerous.

Body fragrance is easy to be remembered by others, so keep it for now to avoid unnecessary trouble.'

Shen Yao muttered to herself, then picked out the pill and put it aside.

The effect of the pill on the body is a long process, after all, the visual effects on other people must be taken into consideration.

So after taking the medicine, Shen Yao did not go out, but instead used a Qingchen technique to take care of herself, and then continued to concentrate on her meditation.

Not forgetting what happened to this body, Shen Yao had to completely resolve the physical troubles before she could go out and make the next arrangements.

Time is like sand, it disappears as fast as morning glory.

When Shen Yao came back to her senses from her secluded state, half a month had passed since she last woke up.

Including Shen Yao's entire retreat, she has not appeared in the Shen family for about two months.

So as soon as she opened the door, Shen Yao was greeted with the daily reports from her maid.

The maid's name is Ping'er. She has been working in the Shen family for generations. Her qualifications of four spiritual roots and the highest three points of purity of her earth spiritual roots make Ping'er always linger at the second level of Qi Refining.

Facing her master who was going out, Ping'er looked respectful, even though her master's appearance had become even more outstanding at this time.

"Uncle is looking for me?"

Shen Yao's expression remained unchanged, thinking that she didn't have much contact with this cheap uncle on a daily basis.

Moreover, my cheap uncle is the patriarch of the Shen family. He is in the early stages of foundation building and is very busy.

How could he have the time to see his cheap niece whose parents had both passed away and who had nothing to show for herself?

"My Lord, the annual Cloud Stone collection day in Cloud City is approaching.

According to the arrangements of the head of the family, both the direct branch and the side branch of the Shen family will send people over this time.

As long as the cultivation level is in the middle and late stages of Qi Refining, the Second Elder will lead the team."

Ping'er knew so much because the news had already spread throughout the Shen clan.

This happens almost every year, since Yunwu City relies on Yunwu Stone for its survival.

After listening to Ping'er's brief explanation of the whole cause and effect, Shen Yao finally remembered the matter of the cloud stone.

It's also her fault that she focused all her energy on herself and ignored time.

It is now mid-April, and the beginning of May every year is when the cloud stone matures.

Cloud Stone is a common array stone used to increase the stability of the array. Its variant, Cloud Crystal, can even be used to refine weapons.

The reason why Yunwu City is famous is because there are a large number of Yunwu stones in the Yunwu Mountain outside Yunwu City.

The people of Yunwu City make a living by collecting Yunwu Stones. The Shen family has been able to grow to its current size thanks to the fact that the ancestor of the Shen family collected Yunwu Crystals in Yunwu Mountain in his early years, handed them over to the city lord of Yunwu City in exchange for a large amount of resources, which enabled him to become a foundation-building cultivator in one fell swoop.

At this point, the Shen family was able to take root and grow stronger in Yunwu City.

Now that the Shen family has been passed down to Uncle Shen Yao, that is, Shen Zhouhai's generation, it has become one of the most powerful forces in Yunwu City.

The three families form a tripartite alliance with the Lin family in the north of Yunwu City and the Sun family in the south of Yunwu City.

As for the east of Yunwu City, that is the territory of the City Lord's Mansion and one of the bases of the Iron Sword Sect, the largest force that controls Yunwu City.

The Iron Sword Sect, the Thousand Feathers League, and the Purple Cloud Sect are known as the three major sects in Northern Continent.

Among them, Qianyu League is an alliance of independent cultivators, Ziyun Sect is composed entirely of women, and Tiejian Sect has some relationship with Tianjian Sect in Dongzhou. This is how they were able to keep Yunwu City in their hands.

However, these were just rumors that Shen Yao heard occasionally, and she had no idea whether they were credible or not.

After all, Shen Yao had no presence in the Shen family before, and Shen Zhouhai would not tell her these things.

With my original body's homebody nature, being able to find out these gossips is already my best effort. If I want to get more, I can only rely on myself.

He nodded to Ping'er, "I understand. I'll go see uncle right away."

Letting Ping'er stay to tidy up the room after the retreat, Shen Yao bypassed her and went straight to Shen Zhouhai's courtyard located in the center of the Shen family's land.

On the way, I met many servants of the Shen family. Some of them had spiritual energy fluctuations on their bodies, while others had no reaction at all.

It seems that even in a city of cultivation, not everyone can practice Taoism.

The cruelty of nature towards people is that it treats everyone equally, regardless of whether they have it or not, they will be forced by life.

He nodded and hurried on. Fortunately, Shen Yao still remembered the memory of going to the main hall, otherwise it would be easy to get lost in a space as huge as a maze like Shen's.

"Sixth Miss"

"Butler Fu, I heard that my uncle was looking for me, so I came here right after I got out of quarantine."

Shen Yao had to show due respect to Butler Fu, because he was a master who had reached the great perfection of Qi training, and he was also the confidant of Shen Zhouhai's father, and Shen Yao's adoptive grandfather.

You know, Shen Yao's adoptive grandfather Shen Changfu is still alive and well. He is the Shen family's highest combat power so far, a master in the late foundation building stage.

If it weren't for the damage to the foundation caused by the action in the early years, which prevented Shen Changfu from advancing, it is possible that the Shen family would have transformed itself and suppressed the Lin family and the Sun family.

However, these are just assumptions. Currently, the Shen family ranks in the middle among the three families. It is not as good as the top ones, but better than the bottom ones, so they are worried.

The character "Fu" in Butler Fu's name was taken out of his own name and given to the other party by Shen Changfu to show his appreciation for Butler Fu.

Butler Fu has a amiable face and a short, plump figure that looks very funny.

But Shen Yao knew in her heart that this man was also a ruthless character in private. Most of the big and small matters of the Shen family were handled by Butler Fu, including some dirty and tiring work that was shameful to see.

In this way, even the younger generations of the direct branch and Shen Yao's adopted brothers and sisters did not dare to offend Butler Fu.

“Don’t worry, Sixth Miss, the head of the family knows that you have always been well-behaved and sensible.

Now that I have not missed the day to collect the cloud stones, I won't blame you."

Butler Fu led Shen Yao into the courtyard and talked to her with a smile as they walked.

Shen Yao thought that this was just something she could say for fun. If she missed the time, she would be harshly punished according to the family rules.

"Butler Fu, I heard from the servants that the Second Elder will lead the team to collect the Cloud Mist Stone this time, and all the clan members in the middle and late stages of Qi Refining will go.

Did something happen in Yunwu Mountain? Why did they arrange for so many people to come?"

It can basically be considered as one third of the entire Shen family's strength.

You should know that last year, only Shen Yao's cousin went out with a few people to collect cloud stones.

Hearing this, Butler Fu smiled and glanced at Shen Yao, then patiently explained, "This time it's different, there are rumors that even more precious cloud crystals have appeared in Yunwu Mountain.

The City Lord's Mansion in the east of the city needs Cloud Crystals. Not only our Shen family, but also the Lin family in the north of the city and the Sun family in the south of the city will send many people to Cloud Mountain to collect them."

After hearing this, Shen Yao said "Oh" and understood. It turned out that he was trying to curry favor with the City Lord's Mansion.

After all, the Shen, Lin and Sun families can only be regarded as local tyrants.

The City Lord's Mansion is the real owner of Yunwu City. If they want to live well in Yunwu City, they have to support the City Lord's Mansion.

For example, to collect the cloud stone this time, even if only a few people go, it will be enough, but because the City Lord's Mansion wants the cloud crystal, they have to increase the number of people.

Tu

It seems that whether it is the world of palace fighting or the world of cultivation, it still follows the principle of whoever has the bigger fist is right.

But it is also true that where there are people, there is the martial arts world. Yunwu City is not big, but there are many forces. It is normal for you to fight and I to suffer.

Butler Hefu briefly understood the reason for sending people to collect cloud stone this time.

Shen Yao turned around and thanked Butler Fu. Her attitude was just right. At least Butler Fu's smile to her was genuine, not perfunctory like before.

Soon, they arrived at the meeting hall.

"Sixth Miss, the master is waiting for you inside, please go in."

"Honorable Fu has worked hard"

Shen Yao nodded, turned around, pushed open the heavy door, and entered the hall smoothly.

"Uncle"

Shen Zhouhai stood with his back to Shen Yao. When he heard Shen Yao calling him, he turned around and waved to Shen Yao with a friendly face.

"Hurry up and take a seat. We asked you to come here because it is urgent and the Shen family cannot refuse.

I guess when you came here, Butler Fu had already told you about collecting the cloud stone this time.

To make a long story short, there were many people and families going to Yunwu Mountain this time.

Uncle hopes that you can get along well with others. You are old enough and unlike your fourth sister, you are likely to be able to build a foundation.

Don't think your uncle speaks too directly. You should hurry up and think about your marriage.

We who practice Taoism must indeed have the mentality of fighting against heaven for our lives.

But if you do something that cannot be done, you will be making a big mistake.

Shen Yao, do you understand what uncle means? "

Shen Yao: ...To be honest, I do understand. It turns out that the Shen family is openly collecting cloud stones, but they are actually secretly looking for marriage candidates.

I have to say that Shen Zhouhai's arrangement was brilliant!

Shen Yao gave Shen Zhouhai a thumbs up in her heart. It was the first time she saw such a successful head of the family.

Apart from anything else, Yunwu City’s annual Yunwu Stone collection activity is indeed the most lively event in the entire Yunwu City.

By then, both high-ranking officials and common people will go to join in the fun.

Shen Yao wants to find a biological father for her future child, and this is a good opportunity.

At least most of the core personnel are here, so it will depend on Shen Yao's own vision then.

Thinking about these things in her heart, Shen Yao had a shy look on her face, and nodded, "Don't worry, uncle, I understand."

Seeing that Shen Yao did not resist, Shen Zhouhai was very satisfied, and his expression softened. "Go back and have a good rest. If you need anything, ask Butler Fu for it as soon as possible.

This trip to Yunwu Mountain is of great importance, and uncle hopes that you can look and feel your best.

Shen Yao, uncle has high hopes for you. Among the other girls in the Shen family, you are the only one who has the greatest chance of success."

Because Shen Yao is the most beautiful girl of this generation in the Shen family.

Shen Zhouhai had to admit that the older Shen Yao got, the more beautiful she became.

It would be a loss if we fail to take this opportunity to gain some benefits for the Shen family.

Alas, it’s a pity that the Shen family is just a small family, and Shen Yao’s qualifications do not meet the standards of Ziyun Sect to accept disciples.

Otherwise, with the help of Ziyun Sect's marriage alliance, Shen Yao entered the sect's gate. Why would she be afraid that the Shen family would have no backing?

It should be understood that the reason why Ziyun Sect can gain a foothold in Beizhou is because of its huge and terrifying network of relationships.

As for the female cultivators of Ziyun Sect, Shen Zhouhai shook his head. It was rumored in Beizhou that one could offend no one but not Ziyun Sect.

Because the power of pillow talk is too strong, not everyone can deal with it.

Shen Yao had no idea that Shen Zhouhai had already thought of so many things while talking to her.

She followed up on Shen Zhouhai's words and expressed her loyalty to the Shen family.

After leaving the hall, Shen Yao simply found Butler Fu and took away the two months' monthly salary that she had not received.

Butler Fu was obviously mentally prepared and faced Shen Yao's purpose with a normal attitude.

Even when giving out the allowances, Butler Fu gave two extra months' allowance.

"This"

Shen Yao hesitated, thinking that fifteen spirit stones a month was already a lot.

You must know that some people rarely have even spirit stones, and the most commonly used are spirit beads which are one grade lower than spirit stones.

The Shen family has a small spirit stone mine. Apart from paying 20% ​​to the City Lord's Mansion every year, they keep the rest for their own cultivation.

Treatment like that for Shen Yao's direct descendants can only be implemented because there are few direct descendants, otherwise it would have been stopped long ago.

Butler Fu's expression remained unchanged, "Sixth Miss, you should keep it quickly. When we get to Yunwu Mountain, we will need a lot of spirit stones to replenish our spiritual power.

This time when going to Yunwu Mountain, everyone in the Shen family will receive an extra portion of their monthly salary.

As long as we can find the Cloud Crystal, the Shen family will not lose out."

On the contrary, by accepting the favor from the City Lord's Mansion, the Shen family also made a profit.

It's just a small price to pay for a few spirit stones. Although the reduction in inventory is a bit painful, it won't cause any serious damage, so you can give it a try.
