Chapter 1007: Chapter 127: Solution_4

Seeds…

Mo Xiang hesitated for a moment but decided to ask someone.

He sent a message to his father and received a negative response.

“Even if you have a chance to advance as a seed, so what?”

Mo Xiang shook his head, “Your talent is indeed a match for my sister, it’s a pity, you have offended the Zhou family…”

“You are utterly ignorant of the power of the Zhou family, just a mere Foundation Establishment stage seed after all…”

“You may go!”

Zhao Yu’s heart sank to the bottom.

He had thought that revealing his level progress of the latter stages of Foundation Establishment would bring him recognition.

Who knew that even the Mo Family, an influence like this, did not dare to offend the Zhou family.

How could this damn Mount Shu be like this?!

Zhao Yu was somewhat disappointed and began to feel some aversion towards the imagined immortal cultivation sects.

He felt that these sects were not fair and just.

The selection of seeds, it turned out, still required family recommendations.

The ulterior motive behind this, he could guess, was to bind these seed contestants.

At best, it was still a measure favoring family powers.

Sigh~~!

“Thank you for the information!”

Zhao Yu bowed his hands and stepped away from the Mo Family’s mountain gate.

After all, he was far from ordinary and adjusted his mindset in just a moment.

“The Mo Family path is closed, who should I look for next?!”

“The Zhao family? Impossible, the Zhao family’s influence is even less than the Mo Family’s, if even the Mo Family dares not offend the Zhou family, what more the Zhao Family?!”

After much thought, Zhao Yu found no suitable candidates and ultimately had to pin his hopes on Wu Yong.

Upon returning to the Justice Department, Wu Yong was somewhat surprised, “Why have you come again?!”

Zhao Yu did not engage in small talk, but directly revealed his level progress of the latter stages of Foundation Establishment.

“I am 22 this year, at the latter stage of Foundation Establishment, am I qualified to compete for a seed?”

“Ah?!”

Wu Yong was stunned, somewhat shocked at the level progress that Zhao Yu had revealed.

“Weren’t you at the early stage of Foundation Establishment?”

“I’ve concealed my true strength!” Zhao Yu bluntly stated.

“So it is!”

Wu Yong felt deeply moved, not expecting Zhao Yu to possess such outstanding natural talent.

If it weren’t for Duan Yinghong pushing him to a desperate situation, he would probably have quietly achieved Core Formation or even Nascent Soul.

He was well aware of Zhao Yu’s background; for a person from such humble origins who did not rely on the power of a backing family, achieving the latter stages of Foundation Establishment purely through self-cultivation was by no means an easy feat.

“I definitely do not have the qualifications to recommend you, but I can ask on your behalf…”

Wu Yong did not outright refuse Zhao Yu, previously willing to speak with Zhao Yu purely out of compassion, seeing in him a reflection of himself.

Now, however, he was moved by the thought of forming ties.

With Zhao Yu’s talent, as long as the Zhou Family couldn’t kill him, he was bound to soar to great heights in the future.

As for the relationship with the Mo Family, in his view, Zhao Yu must have encountered a closed door.

Following that, Wu Yong began to share Zhao Yu’s information and situation with the families he could contact.

After being rejected by seven or eight families in succession, Wu Yong finally brought some good news.

“There’s a family willing to recommend you!”

“It’s a family that is no less inferior to the Zhou family, or rather, one that is opposed to the Zhou family…”

“The Ji Family, one of the three great families of Mount Shu…”

Wu Yong said excitedly, “I’ll take you there now. For the specifics, you can talk with them!”

“Thank you!”

Zhao Yu promptly expressed his gratitude.

“Haha, just remember your brother when you make it big!” Wu Yong did not fear revealing his intentions, speaking directly.

“Certainly, if I achieve anything in the future, I shall repay you generously!” Zhao Yu solemnly promised.

“Very good, I will take you there!”

Wu Yong was satisfied.

He never expected that a simple act of compassion could lead to befriending a seed candidate.

Moreover, this seedling’s connection to the Ji Family meant it was bound to prosper in the future.

Soon, the two soared through the air toward the meeting place with the people from the Ji Family.

“You’re Zhao Yu?!”

Hearing the familiar tone, Zhao Yu frowned, but he was under someone else’s roof and had to bow his head, so he nodded.

“Show me your level progress!”

The man from the Ji Family had the appearance of a middle-aged man, his level progress was at the Golden Core Stage, and he carried that sense of pride characteristic of someone from a large clan.

Zhao Yu again revealed his level progress, which was at the latter stages of Foundation Establishment.

Seeing his level progress, the man from the Ji Family finally showed a smile.

“Not bad!”

“My name is Ji Gang. With the protection of my Ji Family, you don’t have to worry about the Zhou family!”

Ji Gang laughed and said, “What’s the big deal? So, Zhou Zhengchang lost a son. Even if you did kill him, which you didn’t, it wouldn’t matter!”

Hearing this, Zhao Yu breathed a sigh of relief, as this meant he was most likely in the clear.

Ji Gang continued, “A seedling at the Foundation Establishment Stage isn’t much use to our Ji Family. If you can become a seedling at the Golden Core Stage, then you’ll be somewhat valuable…”

He stroked his chin, adding, “However, if it troubles Zhou Zhengchang, annoys him, then I must protect you…”

After thinking for a bit, he said, “Of course, there must still be conditions…”

“By accepting the Ji Family’s protection, you will henceforth be one of us…”

Stroking his chin again, Ji Gang said, “Naturally, we won’t let you join for nothing. You’ll have your fair share of benefits…”

It didn’t take long for the arrangement to be settled.

Ji Gang didn’t dawdle; he took Zhao Yu straight away to undergo the seedling appraisal.

The appraisal for seedlings at the Foundation Establishment Stage was simpler than expected, merely witnessed by representatives from several sects, they tested Zhao Yu’s level progress and bone age, and that was it.

With Ji Gang vouching for him, the process was swift; in just half a day, everything was wrapped up.

“Foundation Establishment Stage seedling, ranked 86th, that will do!”

Ji Gang nodded, saying, “From now on, you are a Foundation Establishment Stage seedling. The Zhou family won’t trouble you easily anymore…”

Zhao Yu hastily asked, “What about my compulsory task?!”

“Bah, such a trifle isn’t worth mentioning!”

Ji Gang smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll arrange a residence for you in the Ji Family. From now on, you’ll move there…”

When Zhao Yu left, he still felt a bit dazed.

“That’s it, resolved?!”

As he flew alone, he couldn’t help but feel that everything was going too smoothly.

There was no opposition from the Zhou family, nor the expected scenario of the Zhou family arguing fiercely with the Ji Family over him.

It all seemed to be handled by the book.

After returning, Zhao Yu shared the good news with Liu Wenxuan, and the two of them celebrated joyfully.

Subsequently, Zhao Yu packed his luggage and set off to the Ji Family’s residence with Liu Wenxuan and Sun Lele.

Their new residence was much better than his previous one, not only was it abundant with Spiritual Power, but it was also incredibly spacious. An entire small mountain was his, far beyond Zhao Yu’s imagination.

In addition, the Ji Family sent over many Spirit Pills and miraculous medicines for Zhao Yu to use.

Zhao Yu had casually resolved his issue.

Little did he know, his promotion to seedling caused the Zhao family to be astounded and stirred up towering waves of surprise.

“Zhao Yu became a seedling?!”

“He’s at the latter stages of Foundation Establishment?!”

All the members of the Zhao family were stunned upon receiving the news.

Even the nominal family leader, the inner sect deacon, was alerted.

Among them, the most shocked and fearful was undeniably Zhao Linger.

“You banished Zhao Yu from the family?!”

The Zhao family leader looked at Zhao Linger with a somber face. “A talent like him, and you didn’t make use of him under your supervision?!”

Zhao Linger felt wronged. When she kicked Zhao Yu out, he was only at Qi Cultivation Level One.

Who would have thought that, after four years, Zhao Yu would be at the latter stages of Foundation Establishment, even becoming a seedling contestant.

She quickly recounted what had happened, asserting it wasn’t her initiative to expel him, but rather Zhao Yu who left on his own accord.

“Hmph!”

The Zhao family leader snorted coldly. “Regardless, the fault lies with you. You’re fined ten thousand Spirit Stones…”

Damn Zhao Yu, making me suffer this punishment!

Zhao Linger cursed silently but had no choice but to accept the decree.
