Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 264: Chapter 164: Evil Receives Its Due, Ten-Acre Tea Garden, The First Vassal Family (Part 3)

Fairy Lady Cai was somewhat curious and couldn’t help but say:

”Patriarch, could it be that there is a hidden Spirit Field in this Nanning Mountain?”

If not.

They wouldn’t have called over three Spirit Plant Masters.

However.

Not a single trace of Spiritual Qi was detected in this Nanning Mountain.

Fu Changsheng smiled and said:

”You will find out soon.”

Fairy Lady Cai couldn’t help but become even more curious.

After half a cup of tea’s time.

The Double-Pupil Rat leaped out from underground, chirping at Fu Changsheng a few times before burrowing back into the ground.

Fu Changsheng cast a technique onto the Flying Ship.

Following closely.

After descending fifty zhang into the ground, taking lefts and rights, the Double-Pupil Rat finally stopped at a stone wall, making a flattering gesture towards Fu Changsheng.

Fu Changsheng smiled and said:

”You little glutton.”

He laughed as he fed the Double-Pupil Rat two Cloud Mulberry Fruits.

His Divine Sense swept across the stone wall.

He discovered that the stone wall surprisingly had a restriction preventing Divine Sense probing. He immediately pointed the Celestial Thunder Sword, and with a roaring sound, the stone wall shattered in response, followed by ripples flashing by as the Array broke.

What lay before them was only a Tier One Low-Grade Concealment Array, with no defensive or offensive power. After the Array Light Curtain broke, Spiritual Qi surged forth.

Behind the stone wall, it was indeed a hidden grotto.

A ten-acre tea garden came into view.

The Array was broken.

The Ping Yunbao guarding the tea garden was stunned; three years ago, the clan ordered him not to leave the tea garden even a step, vaguely knowing that something significant must have happened in the clan.

Though a Late Stage of Qi Cultivation cultivator, he was only a steward and had no say in the clan. After waiting nervously for three years, the clan’s prohibition had yet to be lifted.

Moreover.

He noticed that apart from those executing miscellaneous affairs outside, he couldn’t contact any other stewards in the clan, confirming that something big must have happened.

If not, it wouldn’t be so abnormal.

After being in fear for so many years.

Now that the Array was broken, seeing the Foundation Establishment cultivation of Fu Changsheng who intruded, his pupils shrank, and without thinking, he immediately crushed the Earth Escape Talisman in his hand to escape.

However.

Before someone at the Foundation Establishment level.

His actions were too slow.

Fu Changsheng pointed the Celestial Thunder Sword, and with the sound of it slicing through the air, Ping Yunbao’s neck felt cold, and in the next moment, there was a heavy thud as he fell to the ground.

The couple busy in the tea garden at the Early Stage of Qi Cultivation hurriedly knelt down upon seeing this:

”Senior, spare our lives, senior spare our lives. We are a couple forcibly brought here by the Ping Family to tend the tea garden. They threatened that if we did not dutifully care for the Cloud Mountain Tea, they would exterminate the small Li Family. Senior, we were forced, we beg for your mercy!”

The couple kowtowed frantically, trembling with fear.

Fu Changsheng remembered that in Kuixian County, there was a Qi Cultivation Clan surnamed Li, a vassal Qi Cultivation Clan under the Ping Family. After becoming a Quasi-Ninth-Grade Clan, the Fu Family still did not have a single vassal Qi Cultivation Clan.

This Li Family was just right for use:

”In the land of Yunshan County, within Huli Mountain of the Taiqiu Mountain Range, there is a Tier One Small Low-Grade Spirit Vein. Is your Li Family willing to relocate there?”

The tea farmer was stunned for a moment.

The person before them was indeed Fu Changsheng of the newly risen Quasi-Ninth-Grade Noble Family in Yunshan County.

Where the Li Family served as a vassal didn’t matter, survival was key, and immediately with tears of gratitude, they said:

”Thank you for the Patriarch’s grace, we as a couple will definitely persuade the clan members to relocate to Yunshan County.”

Thirty thousand people.

This was an unexpected joy.

Fu Changsheng asked:

”How many Qi Cultivators does your clan have?”

”Reporting to Patriarch, we have been imprisoned here for over thirty years, only learning from the mouth of the Ping Family’s dogs that there are currently nine Qi Cultivators in our Li Family, plus us two, making eleven in total, but we’re not sure if this is true.”

Eleven Qi Cultivators.

It counted as a small force.

Fu Changsheng nodded and said:

”Go help excavate the Cloud Mountain Tea Trees from the tea garden. As for the relocation of the Li Family, someone will handle this with you afterward.”

”Yes, Patriarch!”

Tea farmer Li Chashan responded quickly.

Fairy Lady Cai looked at the ten-acre tea garden and felt somewhat excited.

The clan truly was developing better and better, especially after advancing to a Quasi-Ninth-Grade Noble Family, perhaps due to the court’s fortune. Of course, much was owed to having a capable Patriarch.

Currently, the Spirit Fields managed by the Spirit Plant Hall, including Luofeng Mountain, covered over four hundred acres.

Fairy Lady Cai had already thought about planting these ten acres of Cloud Mountain Tea around the waterfall of Supreme Profound Peak, where there was abundant Spiritual Qi. However, for various reasons, a Spirit Field couldn’t be developed, making it perfect for planting these ten acres of Cloud Mountain Tea.

Fairy Lady Cai examined the quality of the Cloud Mountain Tea and joyfully reported:

”Patriarch.”

”These Cloud Mountain Teas are almost entirely centuries-old tea trees. Though they are only Tier One Middle-Grade, the tea leaves harvested from them fetch prices equal to Tier One High-Grade. Our Fu Family’s Hundred Treasures Pavilion will henceforth have an additional yearly new product.”

Having said that.

Fairy Lady Cai joyfully rolled up her sleeves and began directing everyone to work.

Meanwhile.

The familiar mechanical voice resounded in Fu Changsheng’s mind once again:

”Ding.”

”You’ve contributed ten acres of Cloud Mountain Tea to your clan, gaining one hundred and eighty Contribution Points.”

Following that.

The Clan Contribution Points on the panel soared from three hundred seventy to five hundred fifty.

Watching the replenished Contribution Points, Fu Changsheng’s lips slightly curled as he instructed Fairy Lady Cai on a few things, left the Flying Ship with her, and after emerging from underground with Chen Yunrui, handed back the Double-Pupil Rat to his fourth sister Fu Changli, finally instructing:

”Fourth Sister, once Fairy Lady Cai arrives from Nanning Mountain, you follow tea farmer Li Chashan to Kuixian County. If they truly wish to become our Fu Family’s vassal force, recruit them. If not, have Xiaoqing imprison them and bring them back to the clan for me to deal with.”

”Yes, Patriarch.”

Having finished with arrangements, Fu Changsheng couldn’t wait to leave Pingshan County, eager to find out what kind of Mutated Spiritual Root cultivator Chen Yunrui really was.

Fortunately, the Spirit Testing Platform in the territory was now completed!
