Chapter 772: Zhu Qi's Memories
"Boy, you have to remember that in this world, the most reliable person is only yourself, and everyone else is in vain. Maybe there are people who you think he won't betray you, or that he hasn't done anything to be sorry for you in this life, and you think I'm not right, but I'm telling you, it's because he hasn't found a reason to betray you and be sorry for you, or it's not good enough for him to do it. "Zhu Qi has always been very calm, and it seems that death is a good way of relief for him, so he is not afraid of life and death.
Lu Yi didn't expect Zhu Qi to say such a thing as soon as he opened his mouth, obviously he was also a little stunned, and at the same time seemed to have a trace of disagreement with Zhu Qi's statement, in Lu Yi's heart, his parents, Lu Fenglai, Zhu Ji, Dongxuan Fairy, etc., as well as Xiaogui Xiaoling and other friends, are all worthy of his trust.
"Also, don't believe in any oath or not, didn't I just use the oath to deceive you?" Seeing Lu Yi's expression, Zhu Qi was not surprised, maybe he had expected Lu Yi to have such a reaction, so he continued to increase the weight.
This time, Lu Yi believed it, he had just been taught a living lesson by Zhu Qi, and he nodded thoughtfully.
"Back then, I used to be like you, at that time, I was very talented, outstanding among my peers, and I was also a well-known genius, after getting the gift of his old man by chance, my cultivation was even more singing all the way, advancing by leaps and bounds, using the wonder of the nine-star empowerment array, I reached the fifth-order monk early, which also caused quite a stir at that time. I was originally from a medium-sized family, and there were many children of the same generation as me, and my family did not have any status in the clan, and even my parents died early due to lack of cultivation, leaving me alone. Originally, I wasn't the best of my peers, but with the help of Yu Pei, I quickly stood out and stood at the top of my peers. For this reason, I have also attracted the attention of the elders in the clan, and my peers and even juniors have regarded me as a role model. Everything went well, I naturally understood the truth of guilt, and I was very careful in what I did, and even when the elders asked me why I suddenly entered the realm so quickly, I even did not hesitate to contribute two sixth-order magic weapons on the grounds that I had strayed into a certain ancient secret realm to support me.
After I reached the Fifth Order Cultivator, I also got my wish to marry the daughter of a powerful elder of another family in the same city that was equal to our family's strength, thus realizing the goal of the two families joining forces and dominating the entire city, and I thus became the link between the two families, and was cultivated as the future successor of the family, and since then, it can be said that everything has been very successful.
My wife and I have actually known each other for a long time, we are also in love together, we both love each other for a very happy time, she is naturally inferior to me in cultivation, but her scheming is stronger than mine, she often reminds me that I should leave three points for being a man, don't be too aggressive, and I may have been too proud of that time, so I didn't listen to her words, just dealt with her on the surface. Because I wanted to take over the position of future head of the family, I also began to deliberately cultivate my own power in the family, after all, there is still competition in the family. In our place, there is a hard and fast rule that if we want to take over the position of the head of the family, we must reach the sixth order monk, and I was only at the level of the early stage of the fifth order close to the middle stage, I knew that I was far behind, and I redoubled my efforts, and after the middle of the fifth order, I used the excuse of going out to practice, found a suitable place, and used the nine-star empowerment array again, so that my cultivation reached the late stage of the fifth order before returning to the family again. Because there was a hundred years of ice, I spent this time concentrating on managing the family power I had cultivated and the wife who came to accompany me. However, I ignored that when I reached the late fifth order, I had actually become a 'dangerous person' who could reach the sixth order at any time, so that I could legitimately enter the ranks of candidates for the family head competition, which naturally touched the interests of some people who planned to show their strength in the next family head competition, originally in their opinion, I should have a long way to go, at least not threaten the next family head competition, but now I have become a dark horse. Coupled with my special relationship with another family, all kinds of rumors began to appear unfavorable to me, saying that I had already been bought by another family, and that I planned to hand over the family to my wife's family after seizing the position of head of the family, and that the reason why I had made such rapid progress was also because of the full support of their family, etc. I've always believed that rumors stop at the wise, so I didn't bother to pay attention to these clowns, and I believe that time will tell.
It turned out that as time passed, when they discovered that my cultivation had stopped at the late Fifth Order, those rumors about me also disappeared, and the threat I posed to them also disappeared as my cultivation stagnated. Life has returned to calm again, but I have a long heart after the experience, especially my wife is still reminding me that my original blatant cultivation of my own power has turned underground, and I just don't want to give others the truth. Moreover, my wife did not approve of me competing for the position of head of the family, but after this incident, she changed her mind, and the two of us even set a goal - to go all out to compete for the next head of the family, and to find a way to make friends with the current head of the house and the popular candidate among the contenders to support the next head of the family, which can be described as a long-term plan.
A hundred years is really nothing for us monks, but after I lifted the lockdown, the change of the head of the family was completed, and the one we supported sat on the position of the head of the family as he wished, which made me more respected in the family. I didn't show too much attention, but started to go out in retreat to restrain my edge, and announced to the outside that it was because I had encountered a bottleneck and went outside to find opportunities. For this reason, I even cut off all contact with the outside world and left everything at home to my wife, who does have the ability to do so, and is even better than me, which also reassures me.
Time flew by, and I stayed outside until I successfully reached the Sixth Order Cultivator, and then I hurried home full of joy. When I returned home, the situation of our family can be said to have changed dramatically. Rending is also extremely prosperous, has become our city overlord level existence, even my wife's maiden family who married me and other families that were originally on par with our family are now weaker than our family more than one or two points, the head of the family at that time is a very powerful figure, coupled with the accumulation of the family in the past few years, our family has developed to an extremely brilliant situation, and there is a tendency to enter a large family.
My wife has been very successful in running our own small circle during my retreat, and she has even built up a high level of prestige among my generation and the generations that follow, and many people around her have followed her to her death. After I came back, she was also very happy, and began to gradually highlight my position in our small circle and become the new spiritual leader, because there is still a long time before the next head of the family will succeed, so she also wants me to deliberately keep a low profile in family affairs and other aspects, and only act as a leader within my own circle, and I naturally obey her. The two of us haven't really enjoyed the life of the two of us over the years, so taking advantage of the competition of the head of the family and the opportunity for a long time, the two of us began to travel together, and after the two took care of everything in the house, they went to the Chaos Sea to live a sweet world for two.
Until, the two of us finally blossomed, she unexpectedly became pregnant, and the two of us were even more pleasantly surprised, and hurried home in a hurry, and began to prepare everything for this unexpected arrival of the little baby that he came to this world.
The melon is ripe, when a big white fat boy croaks to the ground, my mood can be described as extremely excited, looking at this little guy, I feel that I have nothing to ask for in this life, as long as I can bring him up, our family of three together is enough. Even, because of this, I lost my previous fighting spirit and ambition, and my temperament began to become indifferent.
For a long time after that, my life changed completely, my wife and son became all I had, my son's talent was good, I put all my energy into my son's growth, and this time it was more than 20 years.
Finally, the term of office of the current head of the family is coming to an end, and the dark tide in the family begins to surge again, because the current family strength is unprecedentedly strong, and there are naturally more people with ideas, and everyone hopes that they can take greater and more benefits.
At that time, I didn't have the original mind, because I didn't care about competing for the head of the family at all, but after so many years of preparation, the forces I cultivated didn't want to let go of this opportunity, so they consulted me many times and asked me to come out of the mountain again, and even my wife said that after so many years of hard work, you should not only think about yourself, but also for the sake of those children behind you and the family behind them, and also for the sake of our children to be more valued in the family in the future. Under the persuasion of everyone, I also had an idea, so I locked myself up and thought about it.
I have been thinking about it for a month, and finally I have made up my mind to completely withdraw from the competition for the head of the family, for the simple reason that I don't want to affect the life of the family because of the success or defeat of the king, because there have been similar cases before, those who have lost the competition for the head of the family have lived an extremely miserable life under the pressure of the competitor, the new head of the family. And if there is no quarrel with the world, although I will not gain much, I will not lose anything, besides, I have those resources provided by Yu Pei, which is enough. In fact, my mind is no longer on the development of the family, what I want more is to go to a broader world with my wife and children.
