Those who can establish foundations are not in the same state as Qin Liangchen is now.
It doesn’t matter if the condition is perfect, it’s not about adequate preparation.
Mentality, is the key!
Without that indomitable will, the slim chances of a successful breakthrough, even with the best spiritual pills and wonderful medicines, are in vain.
He couldn’t spit out those words that went against his heart!
Looking at Luo Chen’s genuine reaction, Qin Liangchen gave a weak smile.
"See, you know my current state, I’m not suitable for foundation establishment. Why insist on it?"
He walked over to a desk and poured himself a glass of wine.
"Do you know why I clearly have reached the Qi Refinement Finalization, and even have the Foundation Establishment Pill you gave me, but I don’t try to establish a foundation?"
"Scared of failure? Scared of wasting?"
"No!"
"There are many things I’m afraid of in this life, but it’s never these."
"I’m afraid that if I fail and get seriously injured, I won’t have many years left to spend with your sister-in-law, waiting for Xiao Hu to complete his training."
"With my current physical condition, along with your four Foundation Establishment True Cultivators’ experiences. If I fail, it could result in serious injuries that reduce my lifespan, or I could die on the spot."
"Rather than taking these risks, it’s better to just enjoy the rest of my life."
"So, even in death, I have no regrets."
With each glass of wine down the gullet.
The words uttered were calm and open-minded.
As if, he were the same bold and heroic man once again.
Luo Chen pursed his lips, struggling to speak, "What about your wife?"
Qin Liangchen gave a light smile, "Her determination to build a foundation is even stronger than mine!"
"As her pillow companion, I know her best."
"She loves me, she can’t let go of Xiao Hu, and she can’t bear to leave the Luo Tian Creed we built brick by brick."
"If she has a chance, she, who seems weak, will walk a path more resolute than anyone else!"
Luo Chen was silent.
Both choices were made out of love.
One chooses to retreat, the other to advance.
He understands, but it’s very hard to truly comprehend.
If it were him, even if he were heavily wounded and only had one day left to live, he would still take the risk!
"So, stop trying to persuade me."
"Try to persuade your sister-in-law instead!"
"Soon we will lie to her together, say that you found a Foundation Establishment Spirit Medicine more suitable for my physique, and in a few years, I will establish a foundation again."
"Don’t worry, I won’t let her blame you. When the time comes, I will pretend to go into Closed-Door Cultivation for a month and finally pretend that my foundation establishment failed, but I come out completely unscathed."
"Compared to being seriously wounded, she will definitely accept me failing but coming out unscathed."
Luo Chen was left speechless.
What the hell is happening!
You really understand your pillow companion!
"Xiao Luo, you must promise me!" Qin Liangchen put down his glass of wine heavily, staring at Luo Chen seriously, "This time, consider it as your big brother begging you!"
Luo Chen opened his mouth.
In the end, he did not say a word of refusal.
When the door opened, Murong Qinglian hurried in, Qin Liangchen showed a relaxed smile that had been missing for a long time.
"My wife, it’s all settled, we can both establish foundations in due time!"
"As for Xiao Luo, he knows of a method of Foundation Establishment Spirit Medicine that is more suitable for my physique, but it will take time to gather. Therefore, don’t push that Foundation Establishment Pill towards me anymore."
Murong Qinglian was taken aback, subconsciously looking towards Luo Chen who was standing with his back to her.
"Luo Chen, is this true?"
Qin Liangchen bit his lip, watching Luo Chen’s back nervously.
Finally, as he had hoped.
Luo Chen turned around and showed a smile as natural as a seasoned actor.
"It’s true."
This was the first time he lied to a friend about their matter.
For a moment, he felt uncomfortable.
But seeing the couple’s "genuine" smiles, he felt, perhaps such a lie was not wrong?
