At this moment.

The main peak of the Splendid Jade Mountain.

All the elders of the Shen family looked at the family head, Shen Daoming, and the ancestor, Shen Yuanlong.

Shen Daoming and Shen Yuanlong were also in a dilemma.

According to their contributions, Shen Baifei, Xiong Wandao, and Shen Rushuang were all qualified to compete for the Crimson Fire Crystal.

However, the Shen family only had one Crimson Fire Crystal and Purple True Pill.

They all knew very well that if this matter was not handled well, it was very likely to cause discontent within the family.

Historically, the downfall of a family usually started with unfair distribution.

Therefore, Shen Daoming and Shen Yuanlong didn’t make a rash decision.

Shen Yuanlong said,

“Why don’t we discuss this matter after Supreme Elder Chengxuan and Supreme Elder Ruyan come out of seclusion?

What do you think?”

As soon as he said this, Xiong Wandao was the first to nod.

“1 have no objections.”

Shen Baifei and Shen Rushuang hesitated for a moment before nodding.

Only Shen Daoyuan and Shen Yunhao remained silent, which made Shen Daoming and Shen Yuanlong frown.

However, they did not say anything else, so this matter was temporarily put aside.

Just like that.

In the blink of an eye, another three years passed.

In these three years.

Jiang Chengxuan, who was in seclusion, had already used the spiritual fragrance pear that Yun Dongshan had given him back then to break through to the second level of the Violet Palace Realm.

This item could help cultivators increase 30 years worth of Dharmic powers.

Moreover, because it was a natural spiritual item, there were no hidden dangers or side effects.

Originally, he also wanted to consume the Essence Soul Fruit Huang Wenyu gave him.

However, before he went into seclusion, Shen Ruyan told him not to consume the Essence Soul Fruit for the time being.

This item was considered the most precious among all Level 3 spiritual items.

Although consuming it directly could also strengthen the soul,

However, it was never as effective as refining it into medicinal pills.

Shen Ruyan planned to use their Essence Soul Fruits to refine two furnaces of Essence Soul Pills in the future.

In this way, not only could they maximize the value of the Essence Soul Fruits, but the effect of the Essence Soul Pill refined with the Essence Soul Fruit as the main ingredient was far greater than the Essence Soul Fruit.

Jiang Chengxuan calculated the time and felt that it was not far from the trip to Heavenly Peak Valley, so he did not continue to cultivate in seclusion. Soon, he pushed open the door of the cultivation room.

Outside, Jiang Chengxuan saw Shen Ruyan, who had come out of seclusion before him.

However, he also saw another person.

That person was none other than Xiong Wandao, who had a good relationship with him.

This surprised Jiang Chengxuan. He did not expect Xiong Wandao to visit his cave abode.

“Husband.”

Seeing Jiang Chengxuan come out, Shen Ruyan immediately went forward with a smile.

Xiong Wandao hurriedly called out.

“Greetings, Supreme Elder.”

Hearing this, Jiang Chengxuan shook his head and smiled.

“Brother Xiong, we’re old friends. There’s no need to be so polite in private. Just me Brother Jiang.”

“Then… alright, Brother Jiang.”

Xiong Wandao smiled bitterly and said in embarrassment,

“Actually, I came here this time with a presumptuous request.”

“Hmm? A presumptuous request?”

Jiang Chengxuan was slightly stunned.

Before he could ask, Shen Ruyan had already explained the situation on behalf of Xiong Wandao.

It was about the competition for the Crimson Fire Crystal and the Purple True Pill.

Obviously, Xiong Wandao had already told Shen Ruyan about this beforehand.

When Jiang Chengxuan heard this, his expression did not change, but he secretly frowned.

Logically speaking, as a rather close friend of his in the Shen Immortal Family, Jiang Chengxuan should do Xiong Wandao this favor.

However, the problem was that if he helped Xiong Wandao today, would Jiang Chengxuan have to help Shen Baifei, Shen Rushuang, and the others tomorrow if they also came to him?

Most importantly, Jiang Chengxuan did not have the final say in the Shen Immortal Family.

Even if he really had the final say, unless it was his family like Shen Ruyan, he would not agree to help easily.

It was just a rule.

No matter where it was, be it in a family or a sect, a rule was a rule.

Especially in the family, the rules were inviolable.

If this kind of matter was not handled carefully, it would bury a huge hidden trouble for the entire family.

This hidden trouble could potentially cause the family to eventually disintegrate.

Therefore, about this matter, Jiang Chengxuan really couldn’t promise Xiong Wandao anything.

Similarly, he did not equivocate with Xiong Wandao.

As a friend, Jiang Chengxuan was still very sincere. He patiently explained his difficulties to Xiong Wandao.

After Xiong Wandao heard this, he was naturally disappointed, but on the surface, he still expressed his understanding.

Soon, Xiong Wandao left.

Watching the other party’s back gradually disappear, Jiang Chengxuan couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.

He did not know if Xiong Wandao’s understanding was real or fake.

It would be good if he could really understand him, but if it was only an act, it would probably be very difficult for their friendship to continue.

Not everyone could be as open-minded as Xu Qianhe when it came to their Dao path.

And the reason why Xu Qianhe abstained from competing for the Crimson Fire Crystal was because he believed that his lifespan was not long.

If he was a hundred years younger, he might do something completely different.

On the path of cultivation, one had to experience many things, be it the obstacles that one had to overcome, the danger that lurked everywhere, and the ever-changing human hearts.

Just as Jiang Chengxuan was thinking about this, he suddenly felt someone grab his hand.

He turned around and saw Shen Ruyan smiling at him.

“Husband, you did the right thing.”

After a pause, Shen Ruyan continued,

“Also, I want to tell you that no matter where or when, 1 will always be by your side.”

“Wife…”

Jiang Chengxuan felt a warmth in his heart.

Their fingers intertwined.

At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan suddenly understood something.

The Great Dao might be heartless, but people had hearts.

As long as there was a partner who understood you, supported you, and was willing to be by your side no matter where or when.

Then, even though time had changed and the world had changed, you would still be able to maintain your pure heart and never feel lonely..
