Therefore, in order to acquire the Foundation Establishment Pill, he, as the Clan Leader, personally led the charge to the frontlines in Yunzhou after issuing a mobilization order at the Green Lotus Temple.

Unexpectedly, no clear message had yet come from his side, while Zhou Mingde, who had remained to manage the family, had already obtained a Foundation Establishment Pill by slaying members of the Dragon Transformation Sect.

Now, holding the Foundation Establishment Pill in his hand, Zhou Mingde looked at Zhou Chun, pondered for a moment, and then nodded gently, saying, "Zhengchun, you may use this Foundation Establishment Pill. Once your cultivation level has advanced, come directly to me to receive it."

Hearing this, Zhou Chun also breathed a sigh of relief.

Concerning the vital issue of Foundation Establishment, he too had been unavoidably anxious, worried that something unexpected might occur.

Fortunately, no incident had arisen, and Zhou Mingde had indeed considered the big picture.

At this time, Zhou Chun hurriedly expressed his gratitude, "Thank you, Supreme Elder, for your profound favor. This junior will definitely practice diligently and not let down the Supreme Elder\'s high hopes!"

"Let\'s hope so,"

Zhou Mingde nodded slightly and after giving a few more instructions, he returned to his own cave dwelling first.

With the annihilation of the contingent sent by the Dragon Transformation Sect to Lanzhou, Zhou Chun, after discussing with several Zhou Family Elders, cancelled the previously conservative strategy and restored everything to its original state.

Nevertheless, the incident resulted in a definite increase in the family\'s internal surveillance intensity, making the management of personnel entering and leaving the gate much stricter.

Not only the Zhou Family, but other cultivator families in Lanzhou were doing the same.

After all, the lesson of the past was right before their eyes.

The Individual Cultivator Camp had been infiltrated by members of the Dragon Transformation Sect due to lax monitoring.

The infiltrators controlled the cultivators guarding the formation, allowing the Black Dragon Protector, a Purple Mansion Cultivator, to enter the camp.

In the end, several Foundation Establishment Stage Loose Cultivators within were taken captive.

Even though the lax management of the camp towards foreign cultivators was partly to blame, the incident was ultimately caused by insufficient surveillance.

With such an adverse example in front of them, if the cultivator families did not strengthen the gate monitoring, they would rightly deserve any consequent demise!

Meanwhile, motivated by the certainty of obtaining the Foundation Establishment Pill, Zhou Chun became even more dedicated in his practice.

Every day, no matter how busy he was, he would not neglect the regular meditation and cultivation sessions.

By now, he had fully realized that without becoming a Cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage, no matter how well he did in other aspects, he would never be able to wield significant power or enter the upper echelons of the Zhou Family.

So whether it was to gain greater power, a longer lifespan, or higher authority,

Success in Foundation Establishment had become the most important thing to him at the moment.

This time, he sent Zhou Jiarui, the fourth elder, to the marketplace to deliver goods, and instructed him to purchase two bottles of Golden Sprout Pill from Li\'s Herbal Shop for himself, still needing the assistance of elixirs to quickly open the remaining acupuncture points in his body.

As time slowly passed by, the Dragon Transformation Sect seemed to show no significant reaction to the Black Dragon Protector\'s defeat in Lanzhou.

The situation in Yunzhou, after many fierce battles, also began to de-escalate, shifting to a guerrilla warfare of wits and bravery between cultivators from both sides.

This indicated that the Dragon Transformation Sect was still not ready to invade Yunzhou on a grand scale, and it seemed they were only using the current skirmishes for training purposes.

The sects of Jingguo Country, for reasons unknown, also appeared not to be inclined to venture far and launch a campaign against the main temple of the Dragon Transformation Sect.

With limited information, Zhou Chun was unaware of the true plans and intentions of the Green Lotus Temple and other sects.

He could only hope that the war stayed within the bounds of Yunzhou and did not drag Lanzhou into the fray.

For the time being, it seemed that the Green Lotus Temple also wished the same, consistently preventing the Dragon Transformation Sect from expanding the battlefield.

Today, with the end of the month approaching, Zhou Chun began writing summaries for the various clan affairs dealt with over the month, for the Elders to review.

He was adept at this task, as he had previously specialized in such work when he managed the family records.

But now, doing the same work as the Acting Clan Leader, he felt somewhat dissatisfied.

To be a leader of an entire clan and still perform tasks akin to a lowly scribe was rather demeaning.

Thus, he couldn\'t help but entertain the idea of finding someone to ghostwrite for him.

"Actually, this kind of clerical work doesn\'t have to be done by family cultivators, we could completely select some clever mundanes from the family, ensuring they do not leave the gate carelessly, and do not easily communicate with other clan members!"

"In addition, we can assign two people outside the hall for guard duty and for passing on messages, so it\'s not necessary for people to come over to conduct business as if they were visiting homes and calling directly at the door!"

"Even the management of the Beast Garden and Hundred Medicines Peak could recruit mundanes to handle the nurturing and planting tasks, freeing the clansmen there from spending large amounts of time on these matters!"

These thoughts of hiring a ghostwriter soon led Zhou Chun to consider many other matters.

He could say he was well experienced at the grassroots level, having toiled in every aspect from bridge-building to beast-feeding, as he ran about with many Zhou Family Cultivators in the early days of the mountain gate\'s establishment.

Hence, he knew clearly that not all tasks needed to be carried out by cultivators; mortals were capable of handling them too if they put in the effort.

It was just that back then, most of the Zhou Family\'s mundane clansmen had not moved over, and those few who did had close ties with the family\'s higher-ups, so naturally, these mundanes were not asked to engage in tiresome and potentially dangerous labor.
