Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 348: Chapter 193: Counting the Spoils, Expanding the Holdings, News of My Parents

After Ouyang Fei finished speaking, he flickered into the midst of the fleeing members of the Ping Family, pointing the Ghost Gourd. Skulls whistled out, and wherever they passed, the Ping family cultivators screamed miserably, instantly collapsing into a heap of bones.

Fu Changsheng waved his sleeve.

He collected the storage bag from the Ping Clan Leader off the ground, then flickered, heading toward the Soul Hall first, where Autummn Cicada had already taken care of matters and was guarding the entrance.

As Fu Changsheng stepped through the main entrance.

The sounds of battle outside had already died down, with most of the Ping family’s cultivators already slain.

On the altar of the Soul Hall.

A row of Life Soul Plates could be seen, their soul lanterns extinguished, except for six plates at the center, covered by the fortune of the Ninth-Grade Noble Family Jade Seal, which were still lit.

He glanced over the names on the Life Soul Plates.

They were the outstanding young members of the Ping family, selected from the elite, known as the Six Talents of the Ping Family.

Fu Changsheng narrowed his eyes slightly, quickly taking out a Communication Jade Talisman: ”Molan, quickly lead the clan members to search every corner of Pingshan County, the Six Talents of the Ping Family are still alive.”

After saying this.

With a thought.

The Noble Family Jade Seal flashed out of his body.

Both jade seals were Ninth-Grade, almost identical in structure, with the only difference being one having the Fu family’s inscription on the base, and the other the Ping family’s.

At this time.

The red fortune on the Fu Family Jade Seal showed signs of becoming orange, while the Ping Family’s was feebly red.

Fu Changsheng pinched a seal with his right hand.

He cast a technique onto the Fu Family Jade Seal.

Buzz!

A suction force erupted from the jade seal, and soon, the fortune on the Ping Family Jade Seal hovering over the altar trembled slightly. Despite its efforts to maintain, with Fu Changsheng casting another technique onto the Fu Family Jade Seal, the suction force multiplied.

Buzz!

The fortune on the Ping Family Jade Seal was instantly absorbed away.

With the last wisp of fortune devoured.

The Ping Family Jade Seal cracked with a series of clicks and shattered with a bang, turning into a pile of powder that scattered.

Though the Ninth-Grade Noble Family Jade Seal was a Tier Three Spiritual Artifact, it required the cultivation of noble family fortune to be sustained. Without fortune, it crumbled like a building with a foundation removed.

At this moment.

A third of the fortune on the Fu Family Jade Seal trembled and turned orange.

Once fully transformed.

It indicated that the Fu family could officially be promoted to an Eighth-Grade Noble Family.

Fu Changsheng put the jade seal away and, after leaving the Soul Hall, headed to the Treasure Hall, which was guarded by Fu Changli who had just emerged from closed-door cultivation. On seeing Fu Changsheng, he quickly saluted:

”Patriarch, I just researched, this door to the Treasure Hall requires the Ping Family Patriarch’s identity jade talisman to open.”

Fu Changsheng nodded slightly.

With a flip of the right hand.

The Ping Clan Leader’s storage bag appeared in his hand.

With a pat on the storage bag.

Dawn Light flashed.

A jade talisman appeared instantly, the Clan Leader Jade Talisman of the Ping family.

Seeing this, Fu Changli’s eyes curved in a smile:

”Truly worthy of being the Patriarch”

As Fu Changsheng inserted the jade talisman into the recessed keyhole of the hall, the sound of mechanisms turning rang out, followed by a loud rumble as the large door slowly opened.

The two sections of the Treasure Hall came into view.

The first section contained Tier One Spiritual Objects, of which two-thirds were piled with bags of Red Marrow Rice, at least tens of thousands of pounds.

Tier One Spiritual Objects.

Both Fu Changsheng and Fu Changli weren’t interested.

When reaching the second section.

The entire room was empty, devoid of any treasures.

Fu Changli was initially stunned, then quickly looked at Fu Changsheng, fearful of being misunderstood:

”Patriarch, following your orders, I came here immediately to guard after breaking the array, as you saw earlier, this Treasure Hall requires the Patriarch’s Jade Talisman to open, I’ve truly not touched a single thing inside.”

The Life Soul Lamps of Ping Family’s Six Talents were still lit.

This implied that when the Ping Clan Leader fell in the Demon Realm of Ping Xinghai, he had already secretly moved the Six Talents of the Ping family out along with the most treasured possessions of the clan.

Seeing Fu Changli’s nervous face.

Fu Changsheng couldn’t help but smile:

”Fourth Sister, after advancing to Foundation Establishment, there’s no need to be so distant with me, I trust in your integrity. Come, let’s head to the Scripture Pavilion.”

The Ping family’s Scripture Pavilion was on the rear mountain.

Their Spirit Fields were also developed there.

Grandmaster Yu had already broken the defense array of the Spirit Field in advance, revealing five hundred acres of Spirit Field, nearly two-thirds of which were used to grow Red Marrow Rice.

Three Spirit Medicine Gardens were additionally developed.

One of thirty acres to grow Tier One Age-Hiding Grass.

Another of three acres, a Tier Two Middle-Grade Spirit Field to cultivate Tier Two Middle-Grade Azure Cloud Flower, which had just recently been sown and was sprouting tender shoots.

The last Medicine Garden covered an acre, with only one Tier Two High-Grade Golden Yuan Tree planted, which already bore dozens of half-green fruits that would mature in a few years.

This rear mountain’s Spirit Field and the Tier Two High-Grade Spirit Vein.

Were undoubtedly the foundation of the Ping family.

From now on to be called the Fu family.

Just with these two things, taking down the Ping family was worth it.

After passing through the Spirit Field.

Liuu Meizhen was stationed at the entrance to the Scripture Pavilion.

The Scripture Pavilion also needed the Clan Leader Jade Talisman to open, unexpectedly containing no high-tier techniques or cultivation methods, only typical ones that could be purchased from the Marketplace, such as Tier One Techniques and Yellow Tier Low-Grade Cultivation Techniques.

After making a round around the entire Ping family estate.

The clan members inventoried the materials and compiled records.

Fu Changsheng glanced at it and seemed fairly satisfied. Though no high-tier resources were found, the available materials, when sold in the family shop, could at least fetch thirty to forty thousand Spirit Stones, adding to the previous savings, enough to upgrade the feudal land spirit vein to Tier Two Top-Grade.
