As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality

Qin Feng Huo truly met with misfortune.

Despite successfully defending his position and surpassing a height of fifty feet in the second segment of Divinity Qi Column, he was shockingly eliminated and ended up as an Inner Sect Disciple just like the others.

Shangguan Qinglei felt quite pleased.

One fears comparison, but it is also through comparison... that hope arises.

...

...

The True Successors were announced.

The names of the four True Successors echoed at the base of Divine Sect Mountain, stirring endless discussions among the boiling crowd.

The name Xi Xi, in particular, became a frequently mentioned name among many people.

A three-year-old girl from one of the Thirteen Cities of Mansion City, astonishingly overshadowed the offspring of the Five Great Clans and Five Great Sects to become a Divine Sect True Successor!

Moreover, in the second segment, she displayed prodigious talent!

It was simply too inspirational!

This could indeed become the main story told by storytellers in teahouses across Golden Light Prefecture for the next month!

In the parents’ area.

Zhang Ya’s eyes were vacant, a silly smile on her face.

"Xi Xi has become a True Successor, hehe... my Xi Xi has become a True Successor!"

Snapping out of it, she excitedly grabbed Li Che’s arm, "Husband, our little Xi Xi has become a Divine Sect True Successor!"

Li Che concluded his investigation of the Corpse Curse Marks around the area, now having a list in mind.

In that moment, he too joined his wife in exultation.

"Master Li, congratulations, having a daughter with such a rare talent is truly a joyous occasion, worthy of celebration!"

Nurse Momo immediately congratulated him with a smile.

Old Chen, too, finally relaxed and joined in with a grin too wide for his face.

Li Che and Zhang Ya, the couple, stood up together to thank and respond.

And not just them, many people around who knew that Li Che and Zhang Ya were the parents of the prodigy Xi Xi, came forward to offer their congratulations.

For a while, the sounds of congratulations were incessant and reverberating uninterrupted.

Zhang Lianhao, the head of the Temple Control Bureau, along with Divine Envoys Hong Yong and Shi Lei also came forward to offer their congratulations.

Liu He, Hai Chuanying, and other Guest Officials from the Qintian Observatory, as well as the plump Junior Supervisor Gong Yunli and Gongyang Liancheng, all came over to congratulate them.

Li Che took the opportunity to introduce his colleagues and leaders to Zhang Ya.

For a moment, the atmosphere was joyful and harmonious.

...

...

The human world sometimes emphasizes a balance.

There are joys and there are sorrows.

The Qin Family.

Qin Haonan and Qin Leixiao looked at each other in disbelief, faces slightly contorted.

Family Head Qin Cang’s gaze swept over, "Did you initially suspect that this Li Che killed Yuqing?"

"And even sent a shadow tracker to tail him?"

Qin Haonan nodded.

"This Li Che must have known about our Qin Family, and felt the pressure and threat Yuqing once brought to his family. That’s why as soon as he arrived at Mansion City, he rushed to become a Third-class Guest Official at the Qintian Observatory."

Family Head Qin Cang spoke indifferently, "I heard he’s just a country bumpkin from Fei Lei City who had the dumb luck... of having a prodigious daughter."

"Feng Huo performed very well in this assessment; although unlucky... it’s not without further opportunity. Divine Sect will organize the ’Temple God Resonance’ soon, and Feng Huo will still have a chance to turn things around!"

Qin Cang said sternly.

Hearing this, Qin Haonan nodded, glancing at Family Head Qin Cang, not restraining his impulse, "Since Yuqing posed a great threat to Li Che’s family, shouldn’t the Li family send a gift..."

Qin Cang looked at him.

The atmosphere around suddenly became more oppressive, breathlessly stifling.

After a long pause...

Just when Qin Haonan thought he had misspoken, Qin Cang indifferently said, "You take a gift over..."

Qin Haonan was stunned, thinking he had misheard.

"After all, she is a prodigy..."

Qin Cang uttered somberly.

"This girl will surely enter the Ganyuan Orthodox Sect in the future."

"If... she survives the journey."

...

...

On the high stage.

Xi Xi was surrounded by three Elders, looking a bit perplexed and confused.

They were all competing for Xi Xi to choose their Sect, what to decide... Xi Xi was really troubled.

Daddy, come quickly!

Xi Xi felt somewhat uncomfortable calling out in her heart.

If Daddy were here now, he would surely help her make a decision.

Suddenly, Sect Master Nan Lihuo approached, and the three Elders timely moderated themselves.

Elder Zhu, beaming with joy, addressed the Sect Master, "Sect Master, I think Xi Xi should join my Red Cloud Peak, I have lots of experience in teaching female disciples!"

"Elder Zhu, that’s not quite right..."

The handsome and clear-eyed Elder Xu Jiuqing opened his mouth to object.

Zhang Qing Zheng was already frowning and rolling up his sleeves, ready for a debate and competition over Xi Xi.

However, Sect Master Nan Lihuo raised his hand with a gentle expression, pressing it down, and the four Elders subsided, preparing to gage the mood before competing for disciples.

"Let me say something, everyone."

Sect Master Nan Lihuo said with a smile.

From a distance, Li Qingshan and many other Peak Masters of Illusory Phase Level Combat Power also pricked up their ears, keen to listen.

"It’s been ten years since I have taken a disciple, and having a Divine Child join my Divine Sect Golden Light Branch is our great fortune!"

Upon hearing the Sect Master’s opening remarks, Elder Zhu instantly changed color.

This old coot... he was actually going to compete with them for a disciple!

She had been too negligent, forgetting this old man!

Elder Zhu trembled, unable to believe she had overlooked him!

"I, too, would like to take a True Successor as my disciple."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Sect Master Nan Lihuo looked gently at everyone, leaving the four Elders speechless, unsure of how to argue.

The Sect Master personally taking a disciple...

Could they compete with that?

Zhang Qing Zheng was shaking all over... such shameless audacity!

He had even previously considered the Sect Master to be a kind person, all smiles wasted!

"However, do not be too disappointed... since Xi Xi is a prodigy with divine talent, she will surely be sent to the Ganyuan Orthodox Sect for advanced studies, to compete with the geniuses of the Orthodox Sect, and strive for glory for our Golden Light Branch!"
