Yuchi believed himself to be the chosen one of destiny, but that seemed absurd; the true chosen one of destiny should be akin to someone like Huo Yuluo. Now that's an exaggerated life worth not explaining.
What could be the reason?
The responses from Qi Baiyu and Qi Hongyu were quite straightforward, as they both interjected, "Spiritual Painting Avatars are too expensive; we can't afford to raise them."

Too expensive?
Yuchi looked at the painting token in his hand, growing increasingly suspicious.
Expensive? How costly can this little doll be—between ten thousand to a hundred thousand silver? For ordinary cultivators, that's already quite pricy, but for descendants of families like yours, it shouldn't be a prohibitive amount. Or perhaps I have fallen into the trap of "Why not eat minced meat?"
Qi Hongyu then chuckled and said, "The Spiritual Painting Avatars come from the Fifth State, and to bring them to our Third State, they need to be reported."
