As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life

Chapter 190 Xi Xi, Three-Year Bone Tempering Achievement, Temple God Resonance_3

Li Qingshan sipped his hot tea, leisurely stating.

”Thatʼs why these smaller noble families hide their descendants, unwilling to send them to the Divine Sect or to the Imperial Court.”

”However, itʼs different for the great clans of Mansion City. Thereʼs a Divine Sect and a Divine Sect Branch for each province, and especially with the Qian Yuan Divine Sect Branch being located in Golden Light Prefecture, the families there have people, even many high-ranking ones, coming from the Mansion City clans.”

”The Mansion City clans have a Divine Minister presiding, whose lifespan is three to four times that of a Divine Foundation, allowing one elder to support the clan for many years, naturally making the disciples willing to be sent out.”

”Should there be a disciple capable of entering the main sect, the familyʼs very foundation could even rise with the tide.”

Having finished speaking, Li Qingshan helped himself to another cup of tea, muttering, ”You lad, now with ample means, how come you donʼt procure some decent tea leaves, itʼs embarrassing.”

”Arenʼt you now a Third-class Guest Official at the Qintian Observatory? Someday you should find that bosomy but brainless Junior Supervisor Gong Yunli, and just get a good batch of tea from Deputy Inspector Lin Zhengʼs tea room, right?”

Li Che fell silent; he was only a Third-class Guest Official, not a Chief Supervisor after all!

”Senior, how many Supreme Spirit Children are there in Mansion City?” Li Che asked with furrowed brows.

Li Qingshan shook his head: ”I donʼt know; the Five Great Clans keep things very close to their chest. Many even send their heirs to the Five Great Sects ahead of time for cultivation.”

”The competition for the Divine Sectʼs admission assessment, which occurs once every four years, is intense indeed...”

”This year in particular.”

Li Qingshan drank some tea, his voice suddenly growing grave.

Li Che was taken aback, sipping his tea with a frown, ”Why so?”

As parents, they naturally pay close attention to their childʼs education.

Xi Xiʼs admission to the Divine Sect is as tense as competing for a top city primary school.

There are only so many spots, and the more prodigies, the less attention their own daughter will receive, and the fewer benefits she will gain.

Li Che naturally wanted to gather clear information.

”You brat have been enjoying quite the carefree life in the city with your Bull Demon identity. Havenʼt you found it odd? Youʼve killed so many of the Corpse God Cult, arenʼt you puzzled as to why they dare to be so brazen?”

Li Qingshan gestured, sealing the study, to ensure their conversation wouldnʼt be overheard.

”Because of... the Mysterious Temple of the ʼEight-Armed Prison Lotus Furious Third Princeʼ?”

Li Che took a deep breath.

”Right, due to the disturbance of the Third Prince Temple, most Divine Phase Realm experts have entered the Mysterious Temple to suppress the unrest. The Divine Sect sent even more as, after all, Golden Light Prefecture is the base of the Sect Branch. Of course, the disturbance of the Mysterious Temple is driven by human actions as well as its own reasons...”

”The Divine Sect has always relied on the temple; a Mysterious Temple presents risks as well as opportunities.”

”For this admission examination, one part... the Divine Sect will send three Divine Symbol Cultivators, and they will use the Divine Weapon ʼPrison Lotus Wind Fire Golden Light Wheelʼ to tear through the Strange Que, sending the Spirit Children to a hundred zhang in front of the Third Prince Temple...”

Li Qingshanʼs words thundered down like lightning, striking upon Li Cheʼs ears, his pupils involuntarily shrinking.

Even the normally composed Li Che couldnʼt help but be alarmed.

”What? Sending these delicate Spirit Children to a hundred zhang in front of the Third Crown Prince Temple?”

Li Che looked at Li Qingshan, his voice involuntarily rising.

This damn thing...

Itʼs no different from presenting a pile of savory meat right before a dog, is it?

Li Qingshan couldnʼt help but laugh hearing Li Cheʼs strong reaction, but it was an understandable human sentiment, after all, that was the incredibly dangerous Four Royal Mysterious Temples they were talking about.

Li Cheʼs expression changed; such an assessment was too dangerous!

That was virtually placing Xi Xi in an extremely perilous situation. Read exclusive content at empire

If any slight unforeseeable mishap occurred, for these frail Spirit Children, it would be a disaster!

Li Che wasnʼt laughing, he looked solemn as he gazed at Li Qingshan.

Li Qingshan contained his smile, took a sip of tea, and slowly said, ”I know youʼre worried about Xi Xiʼs safety, but although this matter does carry certain risks, even greater is the opportunity.”

”Sending many Spirit Children ahead of the Mysterious Templeʼs front, the purpose is to undergo the Temple Godʼs trial, to test the compatibility with the Temple Godʼs Divinity. You know the Third Prince is known to the world by a childʼs image. If one can induce Temple God Resonance, not only can they cultivate the Temple Godʼs Divine Method, they can also receive gifts from the Temple God.”

”Such as Divine Secret Techniques, Divine Martial Arts, Divine Weapons, Divine Crystals and so on...” Li Qingshan spoke solemnly.

”Moreover, the strength of the Temple God Resonance is the key in deciding the childrenʼs status in the Divine Sect, whether they enter the Inner Sect, become core successors, or are placed in the Outer Sect.”

However, Li Cheʼs brow remained furrowed; he still found it far too dangerous.

After all, that was the Four Royal Mysterious Temples.

It was like telling a group of children, whoever starts the nuclear bomb head can keep it.

”The main danger actually comes from the Temple Guardian Cursed Corpses. The reason the Divine Sect activates the ʼPrison Lotus Wind Fire Golden Light Wheelʼ is precisely to prevent this; itʼs one of the Four Royal Divine Weapons. Although itʼs only one, it can create a vast protective effect.”

”The Golden Light Wheel carries an extremely strong Temple God aura, which can keep the Guardian Cursed Corpses at bay.”

Li Qingshan glanced at the still deeply concerned Li Che, suddenly realizing how seriously this lad was taking his daughterʼs well-being.

”This is both a risk and an opportunity. If one can gain the Four Supremes Temple Godsʼ favor, you should know how far Xi Xi will be able to go in the future! At the very least, reaching Divine Minister is utterly simple, even Divine Origin Realm wouldnʼt be a big problem.”

Li Qingshan sat up straight, his demeanor formal.

”Has there ever been such an action before?”

Li Che paused momentarily before asking.

”Yes, or rather not only the Ganyuan Divine Sect but every sect that relies on a Mysterious Temple will have such a process. Ganyuan Divine Sect wonʼt be an exception. Have you not seen Lu Chi? He was one of the top three Spirit Children with the highest Temple God compatibility during the last action.

Moreover, this time as the Strange Que of the Four Royal Temples opens, the Ganyuan Orthodox Sect of Lingnan Circuit will also send a cultivator to preside over it.”
