Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 1851: Chapter 1115: Wanbao Immortal City

Pei Lun listened to Yang Zhenshan’s words and showed a thoughtful expression.

”Does True Monarch have any guidance for me?”

”Guidance, hehe, you’re a smart person, and I’m willing to have a casual chat with you!”

”My guidance is to give up most of the clan members, allowing a few outstanding ones to grow!”

”Destruction before construction is necessary for your Pei Family to rise again!”

Yang Zhenshan looked at him with a smile, waiting for his decision.

Destruction before construction sounds simple, but it’s hard to execute because it means most of the Pei Family members must die.

As for how to do it, it’s straightforward. Once Yang Zhenshan leaves and Pei Lun’s lifespan ends, the Pei Family will inevitably be exterminated by neighboring forces.

By then, Yang Zhenshan only needs to protect a few Immortal Cultivators.

The catastrophe of extermination will accelerate their growth, and hatred will provide them with the motivation to cultivate, making revenge their most steadfast goal.

With these, they have the foundation to become strong.

Pei Lun’s expression changed repeatedly.

”If you don’t want this, I can protect your Pei Family for a hundred years without a problem. I’ll arrange a Foundation Establishment Cultivator to sit here and spread the word outside, ensuring no surrounding forces trouble your Pei Family!” Yang Zhenshan continued.

Arranging a Foundation Establishment Cultivator to stay here is easy for Yang Zhenshan. There are many idle cultivators in the Spirit Source Land, which would give them something to do.

Rotating every three years, a hundred years isn’t enough to complete a cycle.

Of course, allowing the Pei Family to destruct before reconstruct is easier. Pei Lun only has less than a year of lifespan left, so Yang Zhenshan only needs to arrange a cultivator to come next year after the Pei Family’s extermination, then bring back a few Pei Family disciples.

The number doesn’t need to be many, two or three would suffice.

Whether they can lead the Pei Family to rise again is not Yang Zhenshan’s concern.

Seeing his indecision, Yang Zhenshan stopped speaking further and turned to look at the scenery outside the window.

The scenery of Pei Family Town is beautiful, filled with an ancient charm, with many Spirit Trees lush and full of vitality.

However, the atmosphere in Pei Family Town is oppressive, with the family legacy being too old, resulting in an internal outdated system, causing many family members to lose opportunities for advancement.

Pei Lun has protected the Pei Family, but he is also a cancer within it, running a one-man show and favoring his descendants, which is why the Pei Family hasn’t produced a Foundation Establishment Cultivator for many years, for which he bears significant responsibility.

Therefore, dictatorship is inadvisable.

Yang Zhenshan doesn’t like dictatorship. He only manages the big picture, setting the tone for the Spirit Source Land. He prefers being hands-off, delegating tasks to others, though he does favor his children and grandchildren, but he follows his own rules instead of acting on whims.

Pei Lun pondered for a long time, long enough for Yang Zhenshan to decide to leave. Yang Zhenshan doesn’t want to waste time here, even though he isn’t in a hurry to go to Wanbao Immortal City, he can’t waste time here.

”True Monarch, may I ask where you are from?”

”Western Region Yang Family!” Yang Zhenshan replied.

”Western Region?”

”That’s right, the Western Region is currently chaotic, so I came to see the Central Region.” Yang Zhenshan said casually.

Pei Lun’s mind turned, and he said: ”Would True Monarch consider selecting two disciples from my Pei Family?”

Yang Zhenshan looked at him with a smile that seemed to say, ”Are you kidding?”

Accept disciples?

There’s no way he would accept disciples now.

Moreover, even if he did, with so many people in the Spirit Source Land, why choose disciples from the Pei Family?

”Taking disciples is out of the question. Why don’t you tell me your decision instead!” Yang Zhenshan said lightly.

Pei Lun showed a disappointed expression, but his disappointment quickly disappeared, even he knew such a thought was somewhat fanciful.

”I choose to destruct before reconstruct!” he said firmly.

This was a forced choice and necessary.

Destruction before reconstruction is better than being exterminated outright.

Although Yang Zhenshan can protect the Pei Family for a hundred years, after that, the Pei Family will still face extermination.

Rather than waiting for extermination, it’s better to leave a few bloodlines behind; maybe the Pei Family can rise again someday.

”Good! Since that’s your choice, you can handle the rest yourself!”

Yang Zhenshan slowly stood up.

”True Monarch, what’s this?”

”I have matters to attend to, so I must go to Wanbao Immortal City first!” Yang Zhenshan replied.

”What about my Pei Family’s matters?” Pei Lun asked worriedly.

Yang Zhenshan waved his hand, and a figure immediately appeared by his side.

”Greetings, True Monarch!” Jing Shui appeared and quickly saluted Yang Zhenshan.

Yang Zhenshan had already transmitted a message to him earlier, instructing him to stay in Pei Family Town for ten years.

Jing Shui currently possesses dual cultivation of Peak Foundation Establishment and Divine Soul Realm Martial Artist, making his strength far above the Peak Foundation Establishment, practically invincible unless against higher realms.

However, Jing Shui has little lifespan left, and his chance of Core Formation is very low, almost negligible, having abandoned the thought of forming a core.

Having him sit in Pei Family Town shows Yang Zhenshan’s sincerity toward the Pei Family.

”You stay here. If you need anything, ask him!”

”As for other things, you figure it out among yourselves!”

With that, Yang Zhenshan flashed and left.

He wouldn’t waste time and resources on the Pei Family. Times have changed since he first arrived at the Sea of Spirit, when everything was unfamiliar so he settled at Lingxi Yang Family and took control.
