“Hehehe, I really must thank the Clan Leader for this kindness, granting me such an opportunity!”

Zhang Liang chuckled, his words full of confidence.

However, he soon noticed the fleeting darkness in his partner’s eyes after the initial joy.

This caused a block in his heart, a struggle flashing through his eyes.

Then he suddenly held out the Spirit Awakening Pill to Zhou Xindie, saying in a low voice, “How about I let you use this Spirit Awakening Pill first, dear? After all, I am not yet two hundred, and there will be other opportunities to acquire such spiritual objects!”

Surprised by his offer, Zhou Xindie was momentarily stunned.

When she finally came to her senses, her eyes filled with tears of emotion, shedding tears of gratitude.

She couldn’t help but throw herself into her partner’s arms, sobbing with emotion, “What virtue or ability do I possess, to deserve such deep love from my husband!”

Of course, she couldn’t help but be moved.

Only she knew how much effort and sweat Zhang Liang had expended for that single Spirit Awakening Pill!

Countless sleepless nights, she saw him pondering tirelessly over the Five Directions Mirlo Array, trying various methods.

Zhang Liang indeed had a notable talent for array formations, but it was far from a demonic level!

The knowledge he had now in array formations came not only from talent but also from much sweat and effort.

Yet now he was willing to hand over the Spirit Awakening Pill, earned after so much effort, to his partner.

How could Zhou Xindie not feel deeply moved to tears!

She murmured with heartfelt emotion, “To have met and known you in this life is the blessing of many lifetimes of cultivation, to receive such deep love from my husband, I have no regrets even in death!”

Hearing her sincere words, tears welled up in Zhang Liang’s eyes as well, and he couldn’t help but hold her tightly, “Die’er, you…”

He seemed to want to say something but was choked up.

However, Zhou Xindie slightly shook her head and said, “Your intentions, my husband, I understand, but I have already lived over two hundred years, and even taking the Spirit Awakening Pill, the chance of successfully opening the Purple Mansion is less than twenty percent. If it fails, the consequences would be disastrous!”

At this, she suddenly looked up and smiled gently at him, “For me, to see you successfully open the Purple Mansion in my lifetime, and to live out my days in peace and health, would leave me with no regrets!”

She seemed to have accepted everything long ago, without much reluctance or regret about her path ending at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Seeing this, Zhang Liang’s gaze darkened, and he found himself speechless, only able to hold his partner tightly.

Zhou Xindie let him embrace her but whispered softly, “Husband, spend more time with the children, the second house of our third family recently had a pair of dragon-phoenix twins, and you haven’t seen them yet!”

“Alright, I’ll do as you say. Tomorrow, we’ll visit the third family to see our grandchildren!”

Zhang Liang replied gently, fully understanding his partner’s meaning.

It’s just that with the examples of Zhou Zhengyuan and Zhou Zhengqing before her, she’s a bit worried that something might happen to him too.

So she wants him to spend more time with the family before going into seclusion to open the Purple Mansion.

The two had been partners for many years and had three sons and a daughter, but sadly only one son and one daughter had Spirit Root Aptitude, and both were of lower quality!

Now, aside from the unmarried daughter, the other three sons were already married with children.

In fact, Zhang Liang’s recognition by Zhou Chun and the granting of the Spirit Awakening Pill were related to him having left descendants in the Zhou Family.

With the concern of having children and grandchildren, his sense of belonging to the Zhou Family deepened, and in the future, he would work harder for the better prospects of his offspring.

After investing in Zhang Liang, a stock with potential, Zhou Chun retained the remaining Spirit Awakening Pill without rushing to distribute it.

Currently, the Zhou Family is not lacking in Foundation Establishment Pills, but spiritual objects to aid in opening the Purple Mansion are still extremely scarce.

And it can be foreseen that this scarcity will persist for a long time.

Therefore, such crucial strategic resources cannot be freely available for redemption like the Foundation Establishment Pill.

According to Zhou Chun’s idea, most late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Zhou Family will still need to follow the example of their ancestors, traveling and seeking opportunities on their own if they wish to open the Purple Mansion.

The family could provide them with a Spirit Coin subsidy.

Spiritual objects like the Spirit Awakening Pill, which assist in opening the Purple Mansion, are reserved for clan members who have made outstanding contributions or have special talents, allowing the family to directly bestow them as a form of support.

This also saves the family cultivators from constantly scheming on how to earn enough merit points to exchange for spiritual objects aiding in opening the Purple Mansion!

This approach seems relatively fairer!

In fact, not only for the Spirit Awakening Pill, but Zhou Chun also plans to amend the redemption policy for the Foundation Establishment Pill.

He had reviewed the records of clan affairs and received reports from Zhou Xinyi, realizing the current chaos surrounding the Foundation Establishment Pill redemption in the Zhou Family.

Because the Foundation Establishment Pills and Spirit Items released by the family were always limited, while there are dozens of cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Realm, leading to some lending merit points to friendly Qi Refinement Realm cultivators, and even instances of usury!
