At that moment, he said,

“By the way, Chengxuan, Ruyan, when do you plan to launch an attack on Mount Ether?

The Shen family will cooperate to the best of our abilities.

Jiang Chengxuan smiled and nodded. “There’s no hurry. Fifth Granduncle, take the time to stabilize your realm first.

“If nothing goes wrong, well set off for Mount Ether in three years.”

After that, the few of them chatted for a while.

When it was about time, they returned to Mount Hyan.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan stayed at Mount Hyan for a few days and gave Shen Daoming and the others some pointers on their cultivation.

Then, the couple returned to the Jiang family.

As soon as they returned to the Jiang family, the family head, Jiang Renyi, told

Jiang Chengxuan a piece of news.

They reported that there was someone called Jiang Dongbai who could already refine Level 2 mechanical beasts.

His talent in refining mechanical beasts could be said to be very outstanding.

While the other descendants of the Jiang family were still studying low-grade

Level 1 mechanical beasts, he had already successfully refined a mid-grade

Level 1 mechanical beast.

When the other disciples of the Jiang family mastered the refinement of low-grade Level 1 mechanical beasts, he had already successfully refined a high-grade Level 1 mechanical beast.

Now, he had made progress again and successfully refined a Level 2 mechanical beast not long ago.

This immediately attracted the attention of few Foundation Establishment deacons in charge of this matter regarding the mechanical beasts. In the end, they informed Jiang Renyi.

However, compared to his talent in refining mechanical beasts, Jiang Dongbai’s cultivation aptitude seemed ordinary. It was even a little poor.

He was already in his fifties, but his cultivation was only at the sixth level of Qi Refinement.

Moreover, his spiritual root was a poor four-element false spiritual root.

It was not exaggerating at all to say that if there were no special circumstances in his life, it was impossible for him to reach the Foundation Establishment.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chengxuan immediately said to Jiang Renyi, “Since that Jiang Dongbai has such outstanding talent in refining mechanical beasts, we must nurture him well.

Similarly, if there are similar talents in the future, we must give them special attention.

Tell people that if they don’t have enough talent in cultivation but exhibit outstanding talent in other aspects, our Jiang family will still nurture them.

In short, we can’t let those who are talented be buried.

Do you understand what I mean?”

“I understand, Granduncle.”

Jiang Renyi immediately nodded.

“Since Jiang Dongbai has such outstanding talent in refining mechanical beasts, we can consider raising his cultivation to the Foundation Establishment first.

Don’t be stingy with resources. For disciples with special talents, we have to nurture them well.

Otherwise, the one who will lose in the end will be us. It will also greatly

disappoint and discourage the others.”

“Yes, Granduncle!”

Jiang Renyi immediately accepted the order.

After a while.

In a remote courtyard in the Jiang family.

An ordinary-looking middle-aged man with a medium build was carefully assembling the parts of a mechanical beast.

After a while.

He stopped what he was doing.

Looking at the mechanical beast that he had assembled, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

At this moment, a woman in her forties came to his side with some food. “Husband, I made you some of your favorite food. Sit down and rest first. You’ve been busy for many days.”

Hearing the woman’s words, the middle-aged man nodded with a smile.

He took the food from the woman and said,

“Thank you.”

Then, he sat down on the messy ground.

The woman also sat down beside her husband.

As she handed the water to her husband, she asked,

“By the way, husband, you said last time that the mechanical beast you refined has already been reported by Deacon Dongming to the higher-ups. Is there still no news?”

When he heard his wife’s words, Jiang Dongbai was in thought for a while, then he looked a little down.

A long time had passed since it was reported.

Logically speaking, there should be news.

But now, he hadn’t received a response from the higher-up.

Could it be that the Jiang family did not care much about craftsmen like him?

If that was the case…

Seeing that her husband’s expression was getting dejected after hearing the question, the woman hurriedly comforted him.

“Husband, perhaps the deacons are delayed by something and have yet to report it.

Anyway, we’re not in a hurry. Let’s wait and see.

Hearing this, Jiang Dongbai was about to speak when a group of people suddenly walked in from outside their courtyard.

One of them was Deacon Dongming, whom they had just mentioned. However, at this moment, he was following behind an extraordinary middle-aged man.

Including the others, they all followed behind the middle-aged man. This made Jiang Dongbai and his wife, who had never seen such a scene, nervous. They quickly stood up from the ground and were about to bow.

The middle-aged man in the lead smiled and waved at him.

A gentle Dharmic power landed on him and his wife. They immediately felt like they had been fixed to a pile, unable to bend their body no matter how they tried.

Then, the middle-aged man’s voice sounded.

“You’re Jiang Dongbai, right?

There’s no need for the formalities.

Jiang Dongming, the deacon, said, “Dongbai, this is the head of our Jiang family.

He specially came to reward you.”

“Family… Family Head?”

At this moment, Jiang Dongbai and his wife felt their minds buzz.

They couldn’t even think straight.

They never expected that the family head would come in person for this matter.

Moreover, from what Deacon Dongming said, the family head was here to reward him.

If he had not seen and heard this with his own eyes, Jiang Dongbai would not have believed it.

As a result, he did not hear what Jiang Renyi said to him at all, and that long list of cultivation spiritual items rewarded to him were all unfamiliar to him. Only the words “Foundation Establishment Pill” at the end finally pulled him to his senses.

“Family… Family Head, are you… rewarding me with a Foundation Establishment Pill?”

Jiang Dongbai’s voice was a little dry.

“That’s right.”

Jiang Renyi understood Jiang Dongbai’s state of mind very well. Seeing this, he smiled gently and said again,

■’To be precise, the family wants to nurture you to become a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

If you can refine better mechanical beasts in the future, even your wife and children will benefit from it.”

“Really?”

At this moment, Jiang Dongbai felt like he was dreaming.

However, this dream was too real. It was so real that he could feel his heart jumping out of his throat.

His eyes were red from the tears, and his heart was pounding. Tears instantly covered his face as he slowly knelt on the ground in front of everyone.

He kept thanking Jiang Renyi and the family.

For him, someone at the bottom of the hierarchy, he knew best how difficult it was to receive special nurturing from the family.

Jiang Renyi and the others were also slightly touched.

They looked at Jiang Dongbai and seemed to have thought of many things.

After a while.

When Jiang Dongbai’s emotions were stable, Jiang Renyi said softly, “Dongbai, if you really want to thank someone, then thank the ancestor. He was the one who gave the order.

Also, from today onwards, you and your family don’t have to continue living here. Someone will bring you to a better place to live.”

With that, Jiang Renyi led the group out of the courtyard, leaving Jiang Dongbai and his wife standing there for a long time in a daze.
