The Sacred Leaves Family's Wishes for Peace-Chapter 65 : No regrets in this life

"Elder Brother."

Yun Yunshan arrived at Yun Yunyang’s residence, seeking a discussion with his older brother.

"Haha! Yunshan, what brings you here?"

Yun Yunyang, who had been enjoying a rare moment of peace, sipping tea and reading a book in the courtyard, quickly set down his teacup and invited his younger brother to sit with him.

"I came to ask for some spirit stones to buy refining materials from the Yulin County cultivation marketplace. I want to help Shuang’er learn crafting techniques," Yun Yunshan explained directly, outlining his plan in detail.

"The family indeed needs to find a reliable way to generate cultivation resources. Since you already have a plan, I’ll ask Yunrui to allocate some spirit stones for you shortly," Yun Yunyang replied with a nod, fully agreeing with his younger brother’s reasoning.

The family would need a substantial amount of cultivation resources to nurture Yun Yanshuang and Yun Yantian. Without a way to generate these resources, the family would face significant challenges in the future.

While buying materials for Yun Yanshuang to practice crafting would undoubtedly consume resources, Yun Yunyang, with his keen business sense, knew that some upfront losses were inevitable when pursuing greater gains.

If Yun Yanshuang could be trained as a skilled crafter, the initial investment would be well worth it. After all, a skilled crafting practitioner was incredibly valuable and could be a cornerstone of the Yun family’s future prosperity.

"What materials do you need? It’s best to provide a list so Yunrui can prepare an accurate record," Yun Yunyang suggested with a smile.

The family was meticulous about tracking their use of cultivation resources. Every expenditure of spirit stones was carefully recorded to prevent waste and ensure proper allocation.

"I’ll consult Shuang’er and compile a list of necessary materials. Once it’s ready, I’ll personally deliver it to Yunrui," Yun Yunshan replied.

"Good. I trust you to handle this responsibly," Yun Yunyang said with a smile of confidence.

"By the way, how’s Ling’er doing? She should be close to giving birth now, right?" Yun Yunshan asked with a warm smile, shifting the conversation to family matters.

"Haha! Not quite yet. There’s still two or three months to go, but soon, you and I will both be grandfathers!"

Yun Yunyang’s laughter echoed in the courtyard.

"Time flies. I can’t believe Ling’er is about to have a child already. It feels like just yesterday we were all still young," Yun Yunshan remarked, his tone tinged with nostalgia.

"Indeed, time passes in the blink of an eye," Yun Yunyang said with a sigh, nodding in agreement.

"Yunyang-xiong!"

A Yun clansman entered the courtyard, bowing respectfully. Noticing Yun Yunshan was also present, he added with a smile, "Yunshan-xiong is here as well!"

"What’s the matter?" Yun Yunyang asked with a smile.

"Yunyu-xiong and Yunfeng-xiong have returned from the mountains!"

"Those rascals! They’ve been gone for over a month. It’s about time they came back!"

Yun Yunyang’s face lit up with joy as he rose from his seat. He and Yun Yunshan hurried out of the courtyard, where they were met by the returning group, including Yun Yunyu and Yun Yunfeng.

"Elder Brother! Fourth Brother!"

The dust-covered Yun Yunyu and Yun Yunfeng greeted them warmly, smiling despite their exhaustion.

"You’ve finally returned! Is everyone safe and sound?"

Yun Yunyang stepped forward to greet them, his gaze scanning the group with concern.

"All safe," Yun Yunyu replied with a smile.

"You must all be exhausted after being in the mountains for so long. Go home and rest," Yun Yunyang instructed, turning to address the rest of the group.

"Yunyu, Yunfeng, and Yunxun, stay behind. I’d like to hear about your trip in detail," he added, motioning for the others to leave.

He then led Yun Yunyu, Yun Yunfeng, and Yun Yunxun back into the courtyard to sit and talk.

"This time, my third brother and I, along with Yunxun, ventured into the mountains to search for a spiritual spring. We were successful!

We found a spring deep within the Yunzhang Mountains. Elder Brother, here’s a map I personally drew, showing the route to the spring," Yun Yunyu said as he handed over a carefully drawn map.

Yun Yunyang examined the map briefly, his face lighting up with a broad smile. He patted Yun Yunyu’s shoulder warmly.

"Well done! You’ve done an excellent job, and I’m proud of all of you," he said with genuine appreciation.

"Now that the spiritual spring has been found, the next challenge is figuring out how to channel the mountain’s spring water to irrigate the barren fields behind our Yun family estate.

This will require a significant workforce, and completing such a massive project won’t be an overnight task," Yun Yunyu explained.

"I’ll think this through and come up with a plan. You don’t need to worry too much about it," Yun Yunyang said with a reassuring smile.

"By the way, during our search for the spring, Yunxun discovered a spirit peach tree and harvested ten spirit peaches from it.

These peaches can aid Shuang’er and Tian’er in their cultivation. They’re natural supplements for cultivation and may even rival Tai Xi Pills in efficacy," Yun Yunyu continued.

Beside him, Yun Yunxun carefully retrieved a violet jade box from his bag and slowly opened it. A refreshing fragrance immediately wafted through the courtyard, filling the air with vitality.

Yun Yunyang and Yun Yunshan leaned closer to look inside the box and were greeted by the sight of ten radiant golden spirit peaches. Their surfaces shimmered with a faint glow, streaked with vibrant hues like flowing clouds—a truly dazzling sight.

"It seems the heavens are truly blessing our Yun family!" Yun Yunyang exclaimed joyfully, clearly satisfied with the results of their expedition.

"Leave the spirit peaches in Yunxun’s care for now. When Shuang’er or Tian’er need them, they can come to retrieve them," Yun Yunyang instructed after suppressing his excitement.

As ordinary mortals, neither Yun Yunyang nor Yun Yunshan had much knowledge about spirit herbs or proper storage methods for such treasures. Mishandling them could result in the peaches losing their spiritual essence, which would be a tremendous waste.

Yun Yunxun, with his expertise in spirit herbs, was the most suitable person to safeguard and manage the peaches.

"This time, our success in finding the spiritual spring is largely thanks to Third Brother. If not for his perseverance, we might have returned empty-handed—or even failed to locate the spring entirely, let alone discover these ten spirit peaches," Yun Yunyu said, openly praising Yun Yunfeng in front of their elder brother.

"Yunfeng has indeed changed for the better. As your elder brother, seeing your growth fills me with pride," Yun Yunyang said, his gaze filled with approval as it rested on Yun Yunfeng.

"All I ask, Big Brother, is that you don’t spank me in public anymore—it’s so embarrassing!" Yun Yunfeng replied, scratching the back of his head awkwardly, eliciting hearty laughter from everyone present.

The sun began to set, casting a warm golden glow over Yunzhang Mountain and the Yun family estate nestled below.

Having finished her day of cultivation, Yun Yanshuang returned home in high spirits. She found her father and brother deep in conversation in the courtyard.

"What are you two talking about now?" she asked with a playful smile, skipping over to them.

"Let’s talk inside," Yun Yunshan said, his expression turning serious as he led his children into the house and shut the door behind them.

"Crafting?"

New n𝙤vel chapters are published on novelbuddy.cσ๓.

Yun Yanshuang blinked in surprise.

"Yes. Your brother’s identity is sensitive, so we can’t let the family know he’s capable of crafting, as it would expose his status as a cultivator.

However, the family urgently needs a skill to generate spirit stones to support your cultivation.

Your cultivation level is advancing rapidly, and you’ll soon require substantial resources. So, your brother and I discussed this and came to a decision," Yun Yunshan explained.

"What about my teacher? Did you discuss this with him?" Yun Yanshuang asked curiously.

Her teacher had always advised her to focus on cultivation first and only consider learning auxiliary skills once her foundation was strong.

"The Daoist Elder has already agreed. Enjoy exclusive adventures from novelbuddy

Once the family acquires the necessary spirit ores from the Yulin County marketplace, you’ll begin learning crafting techniques under your brother’s guidance.

Of course, don’t neglect your cultivation either," Yun Yunshan instructed.

"Shuang’er, this may be a challenging period for you, but it’s essential for the family," he added.

"Hehe! Learning a skill to help the family generate cultivation resources isn’t a burden at all.

In fact, mastering crafting will give me the ability to earn my own spirit stones. As my cultivation progresses, I’ll be able to provide for myself, which is a great benefit!

It’s a win-win for me and the family," Yun Yanshuang said cheerfully.

"It’s rare to see you think this way. Having children like you two makes my life as a father truly fulfilling," Yun Yunshan said, his voice filled with pride.
