Of course, the most important thing was still the extension of lifespan. Despite Auntie Xiurong being over two hundred years old, as long as no accidents occurred in the future, she could live for nearly four hundred more years, most likely outliving them all.
But at that moment, an untimely voice suddenly rang out beside Song Chi. Song Ting was whispering and complaining:
"Humph, she could have easily stored it in the Ancestral Torch, yet she insisted on parking her Torch Warship in this Flying Warship Plaza, isn't this just showing off..."
Before she could finish, Song Chi promptly covered the girl's mouth.
"Watch it, be careful or Grandpa will punish you by sending you straight back to school tonight."
In fact, the girl wasn't wrong—everyone present knew it in their hearts, but who would ever bluntly state it.
After all, Auntie Xiurong had just broken through to the Third Rank not long ago; wanting to show off was quite normal, wasn't it.
As the cruiser-class Torch Warship belonging to Bai Xiurong soared into the sky, bursting through the clouds above the White Tower Floating Land within a few breaths, and disappeared into the horizon, people also returned to their flying vehicles and started the journey home.
In the rear of the convoy, Song Chi's family of four shared a flying vehicle. Seeing no outsiders, Song Chi, sitting in the co-pilot seat, turned to his father to ask.
"Dad, how should I handle this strand of Cold Spring Chill Flame, should I keep it, or should I give it to Second Brother now?"
"Brother, why not keep it for me."
Before Song Chao could reply, Song Ting poked her head from the back seat, acting ever so obediently in front of mom and dad, calling 'brother' ever so smoothly.
Song Chi pushed her head back.
"You're still so young, we'll talk after you awaken in twelve years!"
Ignoring the haughty snort coming from the back seat, Song Chi turned his attention back to his father, who was driving.
Song Chao seemed to have already considered this and didn't need to think further, immediately giving his opinion.
"Give it to Little Lin directly since Grandfather treats everyone equally. He's prepared a Fire Seed for each family to ascend. Little Qi and Little Lin have both awakened the Colorless Seed of Torch, which is unlucky. The Fire Seed for your grand uncle's family was used by Little Qi, and with your grand uncle and his wife's power, it will be very difficult to obtain another Fire Seed any time soon.
Since you don't need this Fire Seed, give it to Little Lin."
"However, it won't be for free. Take it out in front of your grand uncle later; knowing his personality, he'll give you a fitting compensation."
Raging Lion Courtyard, living room.
seizing the opportunity, Song Chi approached his Second Brother, Song Lin.
"Second Brother, wait a moment!"
Hearing his call, Song Lin was clearly surprised.
"Little Chi, what's up..."
Song Lin's voice trailed off as he stared straight at the purple glow flying out from Song Chi's forehead, his eyes filled with desire and envy.
It wasn't just him; the grand uncle and his wife who were walking ahead and about to return to their bedroom also stopped, their gaze turning backward.
"Little Chi, what is this?"
Song Chi didn't beat around the bush and simply repeated the words he had already organized with his parents.
"Dad already got me a Fire Seed before, and I don't need the one Grandpa gave me. Second Brother, aren't you in need of one? Here, take it."
As Song Chi casually tossed the orb of light, equivalent to a Top Rank Purple Relic, towards himself, Song Lin froze, staring blankly at his younger brother before him.
Before this, although he had a good impression of Song Chi, it had never reached the depths of brotherly affection. But now, he felt a sudden urge to cry, as if he had just understood the true meaning of the words "Song Family."
Seeing Song Lin's reaction, Song Chi's tone softened slightly.
"Come on, what's with all the sentiment between brothers, just take it."
At this moment, the rich voice of Song Shan came from behind.
"Little Chi's right; we're all family. If he tells you to take it, then take it. If Little Chi is ever in trouble, would you just stand by and watch? Go absorb it quick!!"
Song Lin took a deep breath, his gaze lingering on Song Chi for a long while before he simply uttered four words.
"Little Chi, thank you!"
