Yuxin had no idea about the current situation at the Market Base, nor would she know that Qiu Yiming had been brooding over her departure, even still remembering her and wanting to go to Beishi Base to find her.
Since the base began running smoothly, she had been focusing more on her cultivation. The other members of the Fang Family did the same, sadly Fang Jintang, as the deputy leader of the base, had his hands full with official duties, only having time to practice cultivation in Qingmu Spiritual Mansion at night.
This naturally slowed down his cultivation pace. As for Qu Qianhe, with her Fire Wood Dual Spiritual Roots, she was extremely well-suited for alchemy. Since she started learning alchemy with Yuxin, she not only became more proficient, but her cultivation pace greatly accelerated as well, far surpassing Fang Jintang, and even managing to establish her foundation before him.
This made Qu Qianhe anxious. She didn’t want Fang Jintang to fall behind in cultivation due to his base duties, widening the gap between them!
Although Fang Jintang later succeeded in establishing his foundation, Qu Qianhe was still wary, even refraining from cultivating deliberately just to wait for Fang Jintang, which made him feel quite guilty. Unfortunately, he had been very busy until recently when the weather grew colder, and the attacks from zombies and mutated creatures lessened, he started to relax a bit.
But being such a large base, there were always issues to tackle, and as the deputy leader, his daily duties were still plentiful.
Though he didn’t place much emphasis on force, being far surpassed by his son was unsettling. Moreover, he felt uneasy, sensing deep down that despite the seeming calm, the decreasing attacks from zombies and mutated creatures didn’t signify the end of dangers ahead!
If he couldn’t use this relatively relaxed period to maximize his strength, what would he use to protect his family and the base later on? Could he simply rely on Bai Ye, Yuxin, and Yu Yang? Even though many Ordinary People in the base had grown strong enough to battle zombies, he felt it was still far from sufficient.
So after a moment’s hesitation, he looked at Fang Jintang and asked, "Jintang, what do you think?"
This issue had been discussed several times with Fang Jintang by Qu Qianhe, and he naturally prioritized her wishes, responding, "I think it’s a good idea. I’ve always felt uneasy, sensing greater dangers ahead, and it’s necessary to swiftly bolster our strength."
