Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation

Chapter 541: Chapter 473: The Dream of Foundation Establishment

“Left with no alternatives, I could only resort to this last resort, leaving a letter to bid farewell to Sir.”

“Qian’er has known Sir for nearly one hundred years, and that scene from when we first met at the Spirit Skill Pavilion is still vivid in my mind.”

“In these nearly one hundred years, Sir has never treated Qian’er poorly, and neither has Qian’er let Sir down.”

“But at the end of my life, Qian’er has a favor to ask of Sir.”

“If Sir visits the Flying Cloud Immortal Mansion and An Ning is still under sixty years old, I hope Sir would grant her an opportunity to enter the Foundation Establishment Realm.”

“An Ning is talented, possessing the four spirit roots, and with my teachings, she will not let Sir down. Please give her a chance.”

“Sir established their foundation many years ago, and although I don’t know Sir’s current cultivation, I believe a single Foundation Establishment Elixir shouldn’t pose any difficulties.”

“This is the matter that weighs the heaviest on my heart right now.”

“I hope Sir can forgive me.”

“I’m afraid Qian’er will no longer be able to gather information for Sir.”

He Song sighed as he took in the words on the letter in front of him.

Just as he’d thought.

His suspicions were not wrong.

Su Qian had not acquired any significant fortune to extend her lifespan, and as He Song had guessed, she had already passed away due to exhaustion more than a decade ago.

However, before her death, Su Qian left a letter in An Ning’s hands to give to He Song.

He Song understood from the content of the letter why An Ning didn’t tell him about Su Qian’s death.

Su Qian probably planned this all along.

Her goal was to make He Song feel a bit 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.

However, He Song had forgotten about her at the time of her death.

He only came to visit her after realizing the issue of her lifespan.

Anyone else would have felt guilty after going through such a situation, making it easier for them to agree to the request of a deceased person.

He Song could see this clearly.

No doubt Su Qian had thought this way before her death as well.

That was why she told An Ning not to reveal the truth to He Song.

By the time He Song realized something was wrong and came to investigate, her goal would have been achieved.

Accepting her request would be much more likely once he read the letter after her death.

He might even become more sympathetic towards An Ning because it was Su Qian’s dying wish.

He Song, who had climbed from the bottom all the way to his current position, could clearly see it.

He was also weighing Su Qian’s move in his heart.

Although it seemed like Su Qian was taking advantage of He Song, he didn’t bear any resentment towards her.

That’s because Su Qian had indeed done a great deal for He Song.

In the process of delivering messages for nearly a hundred years, Su Qian has never made mistakes.

She never demanded any additional benefits from He Song.

Even when she failed to establish her foundation, she never complained or blamed anyone else.

Over the years, she showed both dedication and hard work.

Now, as she faced death, she entrusted An Ning to He Song and hoped that He Song would provide An Ning with an opportunity to enter the Foundation Establishment Realm.

In He Song’s eyes, Su Qian was just a small character trying to pass on her dream of establishing a foundation to her successor before her death.

Nowadays, An Ning was more like a continuation of Su Qian’s own life in the hearts of both He Song and Su Qian.

If An Ning could enter the Foundation Establishment Realm with He Song’s help, Su Qian’s dream would be fulfilled. She would be able to rest peacefully in the afterlife.

Of course, He Song was willing to let bygones be bygones because Su Qian had been serving him faithfully for nearly a hundred years.

If others tried to use him and he found out about it, they would likely face the wrath of his Golden Elixir.

He Song would not let down those who genuinely worked for him, as long as it was within his means.

He put the letter into his storage bag.

Placing it with the large stack of letters Su Qian had sent to him before.

He Song then gazed at An Ning in front of him.

At this moment, An Ning had been standing nervously in place ever since handing He Song the letter Su Qian wrote before her death, barely daring to move.

She didn’t know what Su Qian had written to He Song in the letter.

She didn’t know what He Song would do after reading the letter.

She didn’t know if He Song would honor Su Qian’s final wish and take her away from this place.

She should know that thirty years ago, when they first met, Su Qian had already told her that if possible, she should leave with He Song when he returned.

This place was the northern border of the Sun Faction and a war was likely to break out soon.

In the subsequent thirty years, various pieces of information confirmed Su Qian’s words.

Now, the war between the Sun Faction and the God Locking Sect was imminent. If she didn’t leave soon, it might be too late.

If He Song didn’t take An Ning away this time, her danger in this place would increase rapidly.

At that point, leaving early might be her only option.

“How old are you this year?”

As An Ning anxiously awaited He Song’s actions, his voice resounded in her ear.
