Yet many matters within the family rely on these two Ancestors to strategize and make decisions.
On ordinary days, the Xiao family also depends on these two as their facade to maintain their network of Taoists and intimidate other forces.
These two Ancestors must not encounter any mishap.
Ultimately, the Xiao family is merely a weak fifth-grade house, without deep roots; every Heaven Void cultivator is exceedingly precious.
But planting a special Eternal Life Rune is too taxing on a Heaven Void cultivator.
Unless one's life is utterly exhausted and the Great Dao is hopeless, no Ancestor would easily plant an Eternal Life Rune.
Among the families, those who can truly plant an Eternal Life Rune are, apart from the unattainably elevated sixth-grade families, only those powerful fifth-grade clans with at least five Heaven Void cultivators and profound foundations.
The Xiao family is far from having such qualification.
