Chapter 193 Critical Illness

After chasing for dozens of miles, just when Huang Shengyue and Song Qingming were about to catch up with Gao Yubai, a black light appeared in the distant sky and flew towards them quickly. Gao Baiyu was overjoyed and quickly increased his speed.

Seeing that the person coming was Lu Xingde, Huang Shengyue and Song Qingming couldn't help but sigh, stopped chasing and turned back.

In fact, the two of them didn't really want to kill Gao Yubai at the beginning, but they found that this kid was quite powerful during the fight, and they were a little excited all of a sudden. They wanted to solve this trouble directly here. Until now, when they saw Lu Xingde coming, they woke up and took the initiative to retreat.

When they returned, Duanliu Mountain had been jointly attacked by the cultivators of the Huang and Song families below. Except for four or five cultivators with higher cultivation from the Gao and Lu families who escaped desperately, the rest died here.

In this battle, because the Huang and Song families were well prepared and joined forces to outnumber the enemy several times, there were not many losses after the battle, and only a few cultivators were slightly injured.

After killing the Gao family cultivator who had occupied their own territory, the Huang family, who had been suppressed for several months, cheered for a while and immediately began to take over the Broken Flow Mountain Mine.

Because the Gao family had also been mining here during this period, they had always maintained the original mine very well and did not make things difficult for the Huang family mortals who were originally mining here. Everything in the Broken Flow Mountain Copper Mine was well preserved, and it would not be long before it could operate normally again.

After taking over the Broken Flow Mountain Mine, Song Qingming also deliberately left his ninth uncle Song Changxin with eight cultivators to help the Huang family guard the mine.

Broken Flow Mountain is located at the junction of the Huang family and the Lu family. If they want to have a piece of territory here, it means that the Song family must stand up together and share the pressure with the Huang family.

Huang Shengyue originally gave the Song family 40% of the shares of Broken Flow Mountain for this purpose, to pull the Song family to share some of the pressure on the front line.

Song Qingming had already figured this out when he decided to get involved. This time, they and the Huang family took action together, which was considered to hurt the Gao family. The Song family is now firmly tied to the Huang family's chariot, and it is impossible to withdraw for the time being.

After discussing with Huang Shengyue about the joint development of Broken Flow Mountain, Song Qingming directly returned to Funiu Mountain with the remaining Song family cultivators.

Next, Song Qingming did not choose to go to Qinghefang to see Gao Jinhe again, but also wrote him a letter, directly rejecting the Gao family's desire to exchange shops with the Song family.

Since he already knew the situation on the Huang family's side, Song Qingming naturally would not worry about the Gao family daring to continue to attack the Song family. After the battle of Broken Flow Mountain, the Huang family and the Song family were completely tied together. If the Gao family wanted to attack the Song family, the Huang family would naturally not sit idly by.

If these immortal cultivation families want to seize more cultivation resources, they still have to rely on their strength. When Song Qingming disappeared, the Song family suddenly lost the protection of the foundation-building cultivators, and naturally lost the qualification to occupy more resources.

Even if the Gao family did not intend to attack them, other foundation-building families would also attack them later. This is the iron rule of the immortal cultivation world. All resources are in the hands of high-level cultivators.

After the letter was sent to Qinghefang, Gao Jinhe did not reply, nor did he respond by sending cultivators to Funiushan. It was as if the original incident had never happened. The Gao family and the Song family had no intersection again.

After the Huang family took back Duanliu Mountain, Qinghe County once again caused an uproar. Overnight, the Huang family restored most of its former reputation, stabilized the military spirit of many affiliated immortal cultivation families, and broke the rumors that the head of the Huang family had died in the past few months.

However, the Huang family did not continue to take action except to recapture the Duanliu Mountain. The Gao family and the Lu family also returned to the peace of a few months ago and did not make any moves. Both sides did not take any action, which made Qinghe County seem to fall into a strange peace all of a sudden.

In this finally restored peace, less than two months later, Song Qingming, who was in seclusion for cultivation, unexpectedly received news from Mujiao Town at the foot of the mountain that his mother was seriously ill.

Since building the foundation, Song Qingming has rarely returned to his home at the foot of the mountain, but his mother is still the earthly bond that he can hardly give up.

Song's mother is already over 70 years old, which is a rare old age in the secular world. This time, the news of her serious illness came suddenly, and Song Qingming also knew that the old lady should not have much time left.

After putting away the idea of ​​cultivation, Song Qingming went directly to Mujiao Town.

In recent years, the Song family has developed rapidly, constantly expanding the existing mortal villages and towns, and increasing the number of mortals in the family below. Before Song Qingming went down the mountain, the entire Song family had only 20,000 mortals, but now it is almost doubled.

As soon as he arrived at Mujiao Town, Song Qingming saw his fifth brother Song Qingyuan, who had been waiting here for a long time.

"Greetings, Grand Elder!"

Song Qingming nodded and said, "No need to be polite when the fifth brother is here. Go and do your thing first. I will find you if I need anything."

The Qing generation, cultivators who are older than Song Qingming, basically have little room for improvement in their cultivation. Most of them have already started families and gone out to take up some easier positions.

The eldest brother Song Qingshi, the fourth brother Song Qingrui, and the sixth brother Song Qinghe have all started families in recent years. The fourth brother, who got married first, now has a lot of children. Half a year ago, he was tested to have a child with spiritual roots, which made him very happy. He had already stopped paying attention to cultivation, but now he is concentrating on paving the way for his children's future.

For these people, the path of cultivation is hopeless in this life. It is a two-birds-at-one situation to enjoy the rest of their lives and add a few more children with spiritual roots to the family and place their hopes on the next generation.

As soon as he walked into the house, Song Qingming saw the fourth brother and his wife sitting in the hall.

They are all over fifty years old. Although they have been rich and have not suffered much in their lives, they are now beginning to stagger.

Seeing Song Qingming come in, the fourth brother was so excited that he almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Yunshan, the eldest nephew who was already the head of the family, supported his father in time, and several people led Song Qingming to the backyard together.

Seeing his mother lying on the sickbed and thinner, Song Qingming couldn't hold back a few tears.

"Mother couldn't eat anything half a month ago and could only take some soup. A few days ago, she called your name a few times and fell asleep. She hasn't woken up for several days. That's why I couldn't ask someone to go up the mountain to inform you." The second sister who was taking care of her by the bed was already full of white hair. Her eyes were red when she spoke at this moment. I think she had cried a lot in the past few days.

"Second sister, I have a magic pill here, which should make mother wake up first. You can take care of her first." After Song Qingming finished speaking, he left a pill by the bed and turned around and walked out dejectedly.
