"Left with no other option, I had to resort to this inferior plan, leaving a letter here to bid a final farewell to you, Senior."
"Qian'er has known Senior for nearly a hundred years. The scene when we first met in the Spirit Skill Pavilion is still vivid in my mind."
"In these nearly hundred years, Senior has never treated Qian'er poorly, and Qian'er has never let down Senior's kindness."
"However, as my life is about to burn out, Qian'er has one matter that she wishes Senior to agree to."
"If Senior comes to Flying Cloud Immortal Market and An Ning is still under sixty years old, I hope Senior can grant her an opportunity to step into Foundation Establishment."
"An Ning has good talent, being of four spirit roots, and with my guidance, she will certainly not let Senior down. I hope Senior can give her a chance."
"Senior established Foundation Establishment many years ago. Although I do not know Senior's current cultivation level, I believe a Foundation Establishment Pill should not be difficult for Senior."
"This matter is what Qian'er is most concerned about in her heart now."
"I hope Senior will understand."
"Qian'er is afraid that she will no longer be able to collect surrounding information for Senior in the future."
He Song sighed inwardly as he read every word on the letter before him.
Indeed.
His guess was correct.
Su Qian ultimately did not obtain any great opportunity to extend her lifespan.
Instead, as He Song had guessed, she had already passed away more than ten years ago due to the exhaustion of her lifespan.
However, before her death, Su Qian left a letter, which was handed to He Song by An Ning before him.
He Song saw the words in the letter and understood why An Ning had not told him about Su Qian's death.
This matter was likely also planned by Su Qian herself.
Her purpose.
Was naturally to make him feel a little guilty, making it easier for him to agree to her request in the letter.
He Song had known Su Qian for nearly a hundred years.
But at the time of her death, He Song had forgotten her.
It was not until later when he remembered her lifespan problem that he came to check.
If it were anyone else, after encountering such a thing, they would inevitably feel ashamed and be more likely to agree to the things she had requested before her death.
He Song saw this very clearly.
Presumably, Su Qian had also had such thoughts before her death.
This was also why she had instructed An Ning not to tell He Song about this matter.
When He Song noticed something was wrong and came here in person, the effect she wanted to achieve would naturally be achieved.
And when He Song really came here to check and read this letter, the probability of agreeing to this matter would also increase a lot.
Even, because this matter was Su Qian's last wish before her death, he might even treat An Ning better.
This matter.
He Song, who had come all the way from the bottom to his current position, naturally saw it very clearly.
He also had a scale in his heart to measure Su Qian's actions.
Although Su Qian's action seemed to be using He Song, He Song did not feel any ill will in his heart.
Because Su Qian had indeed done a lot for He Song.
In the nearly hundred years of transmitting information, Su Qian had never made a mistake.
Nor had she been greedy, asking He Song for any benefits.
Even if Foundation Establishment failed, she had never complained.
Over the years, she had contributed merit and also suffered hardship.
Now, at the time of her death, she entrusted An Ning to him and hoped that he could give An Ning an opportunity to step into Foundation Establishment.
In He Song's view, it was just a small person, giving her Foundation Establishment dream to her descendants before her death.
Now, An Ning, in the hearts of He Song and Su Qian, is more like an extension of Su Qian herself.
If An Ning could successfully step into Foundation Establishment with He Song's help, Su Qian would naturally have fulfilled her dream and could rest in peace under the nine springs.
Of course, it was also because Su Qian had been serving He Song for nearly a hundred years that He Song did not mind this matter.
If it were someone else, and He Song realized that he was being used.
Perhaps what awaited this person would be the anger of a Golden Core.
He Song would naturally not let down those who sincerely did things for him, within his ability.
He Song put the letter in his hand into his storage pouch.
Placing it together with a large pile of letters that Su Qian had once delivered to him.
He Song's gaze also turned to An Ning in front of him at this moment.
The current An Ning.
After handing the letter written by Su Qian before her death to He Song, she had been standing anxiously in place, not even daring to move much.
She did not know what Su Qian had said to He Song in the letter.
She also did not know what He Song would do after reading the letter.
Even more, she did not know whether He Song would take her away from here for Su Qian's sake.
You must know.
As early as thirty years ago, when she first met He Song and settled the Lin family, Su Qian had told her.
If possible, when He Song came here next time, she must ask He Song to take her away from this place.
This place was the northern border of One Yang Sect, and war might break out soon.
In the subsequent thirty years, various news from the surroundings also verified Su Qian's statement at the time.
Now, the war between One Yang Sect and God Locking Sect was already imminent, and if they did not leave, it might really be too late.
If He Song did not take her away this time, the danger to her in this place would also rapidly increase.
At that time, perhaps leaving on her own as soon as possible would be the only path she had to choose next.
"How old are you this year?"
Just as An Ning's thoughts were racing and she was quietly waiting for He Song's actions, He Song's voice rang in her ears.
At the moment she heard He Song's voice, An Ning's heart tightened, and she subconsciously blurted out.
"Senior, An Ning is already fifty-seven this year."
Listening to the clear voice in her ear, He Song nodded thoughtfully.
This An Ning, like Su Qian, was also a cultivator. Even though she was already fifty-seven, her figure and appearance were still like a young girl of sixteen or eighteen, charming and lovely.
But thinking of this, He Song felt a sigh for Su Qian's request before her death.
In his opinion.
Su Qian leaving this letter before her death was actually a bit of a gamble.
She gambled that He Song would realize she had passed away before An Ning was sixty years old, and come here in person to check.
If she won the gamble, like now.
Naturally, it would arouse He Song's guilt, and make He Song agree to her request, giving An Ning an opportunity to step into Foundation Establishment.
But if she lost the gamble, and He Song did not come here before An Ning was sixty years old.
This matter would naturally also be dropped.
Although at that time, He Song might also make other compensations to An Ning, the probability of An Ning stepping into Foundation Establishment would naturally be very slim.
Even, after Su Qian's death, the connection between An Ning and He Song would also be interrupted, and her last wish would no longer have anyone to fulfill.
After all, An Ning was not Su Qian, and her interaction with He Song was also facilitated by Su Qian, and there was no such coincidence as when the two first met in the Spirit Skill Pavilion of Flying Cloud Immortal Market.
If An Ning was about to die, and used this method to ask He Song to give a Foundation Establishment Pill to her descendants, the probability of He Song agreeing would be very small.
And this, was exactly where He Song sighed.
Someone with low cultivation like Su Qian, even gambling, gambled so cautiously.
After sighing, He Song looked at An Ning in front of him, and the look in his eyes also softened a little.
"Fifty-seven, not too late."
"Pack up, and then take me to where the Lin family members are."
"This place cannot stay for long. If you want to take your An family members away, you can also send a message early to let them gather with the Li family members."
"When the time comes, This Seat will take you and others away from here together."
"In this way, your An family members can also avoid this disaster."
After giving the order, He Song stopped talking, just motioned for An Ning to pack up her belongings and prepare to leave this place with him.
And after hearing He Song's words, An Ning's face suddenly lit up with joy.
After the joy, she hurriedly bowed respectfully to He Song and retreated to pack up the house.
After An Ning left.
He Song's mind turned, but his mind began to think about how he should find a Foundation Establishment Pill.
Regarding Su Qian's last wish, He Song decided after thinking about it that it was still feasible.
Now, He Song's cultivation had reached the Golden Core realm.
For Foundation Establishment Pills, he would not feel as scarce as those in Qi Condensation Stage or Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators.
Even, He Song did not feel that Foundation Establishment Pills were scarce as early as the Qi Condensation Stage.
You must know.
Even in Earth Sect, any Qi Condensation Stage disciple, or Foundation Establishment Stage elder, could exchange Foundation Establishment Pills from the sect treasure vault.
Although the spirit stones required were not small, for sect disciples, they were basically affordable.
In this case, with He Song's current early Golden Core cultivation, wanting to obtain a Foundation Establishment Pill was naturally not difficult.
However, because He Song had already left Earth Sect and had not yet joined another sect.
Therefore, wanting to exchange for Foundation Establishment Pills from the sect treasure vault naturally became a luxury.
Without being able to obtain Foundation Establishment Pills from the sect treasure vault.
He Song was slightly worried about the source of Foundation Establishment Pills.
Although Meng Guan and Wei Fan were both in One Yang Sect now, if He Song asked, the two of them would naturally be able to bring Foundation Establishment Pills for He Song.
However, to trouble his two friends specifically for such a small matter, He Song really did not want to.
Now, the three of them were all in the Golden Core realm.
He was asking them for help, but only for a Foundation Establishment Pill.
This kind of thing, I am afraid, would make Meng Guan and Wei Fan have doubts about He Song's current situation.
Perhaps, in the subsequent exchanges, they would constantly persuade He Song to join One Yang Sect.
In this way, at least Foundation Establishment Pills, this thing, would definitely not be lacking again.
In order to avoid such a situation, He Song was really unwilling to do this from the bottom of his heart.
As for finding other people?
He Song really did not have many good friends with low cultivation outside.
And if the cultivation is too low, they also cannot find Foundation Establishment Pills.
Naturally, it is even more impossible to find them.
Apart from Meng Guan and Wei Fan.
True Lord Luo Jing's current cultivation was also in the Golden Core realm.
If he sought her only for a Foundation Establishment Pill, it might make her look down on He Song, feeling that He Song could not accomplish great things.
After all, a Foundation Establishment Pill, for He Song, who in her eyes had reached Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivation, was actually not a difficult matter.
It was really making a fuss over a trifle to trouble a Golden Core True Lord like her for such a trivial matter.
Therefore, after some thought, He Song finally sighed faintly in his heart.
"Forget it, since it is extremely difficult to encounter Foundation Establishment Pills in Immortal Cities, then go to the state capitals of the Immortal Prefectures to see."
"Take this opportunity to go to Blue Moon Prefecture's state capital to take a look."
"I haven't paid attention before, but I don't know if Foundation Establishment Pills are sold in these state capitals of Immortal Prefectures."
"I think there should be."
"The state capital of an Immortal Prefecture is, after all, much larger than an Immortal City."
"Foundation Establishment Pills, this kind of thing, should not be lacking in the state capital of an Immortal Prefecture."
Sighing in his heart, He Song quickly gathered his thoughts and waited quietly for An Ning to pack up.
The matter of the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Let's talk about it later.
An Ning was only fifty-seven years old this year, and there were still two and a half years before she turned sixty.
With these two and a half years, it was not really difficult for He Song to get a Foundation Establishment Pill.
With this thought in mind, He Song also relaxed his mind and stopped thinking about the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Soon.
An Ning packed up her things and left the courtyard with He Song.
Because He Song explained that he was afraid that he would not return to this place in the future, An Ning was particularly serious when packing up.
As long as she thought it was useful, she put it all into the storage pouch.
He Song did not care about this, and did not urge her, just waited silently for her to finish packing before leaving with her.
However, when the two came outside Flying Cloud Immortal Market.
He Song and An Ning each turned their heads and looked at the huge Flying Cloud Immortal Market in front of them for the last time.
They both knew.
This time they left.
The two of them were afraid that they would never return to this place again.
Therefore, this stop before leaving became the only memory of this place for the two of them.
After engraving all the details of the Flying Cloud Immortal Market in front of them into their minds, He Song's mind moved, and a top-grade artifact flying boat suddenly appeared in front of the two of them.
This top-grade artifact flying boat was personally forged by He Song.
The current He Song was already a refiner who could forge top-grade artifacts.
Moreover, because the inferior spiritual artifact flying boat obtained from True Lord Silver Moon's storage pouch belonged to True Lord Silver Moon.
And True Lord Silver Moon, was also a Golden Core elder of One Yang Sect.
After thinking about it, He Song finally decided that when his refining skills reached the point where he could forge inferior spiritual artifacts, he would modify the appearance of that inferior spiritual artifact flying boat.
In this way, even if He Song controlled that inferior spiritual artifact flying boat when going out, he would not be recognized by the Golden Core cultivators of One Yang Sect as to the origin of this flying boat.
Before this, He Song was still worried about being recognized every time he controlled that inferior spiritual artifact flying boat.
Therefore, he specially forged a brand-new, top-grade artifact flying boat forged by himself as a temporary substitute.
In this way, he did not need to worry about being recognized by the Golden Core True Lords of One Yang Sect when he controlled that inferior spiritual artifact flying boat to go out.
