Immortal Clan: Starting from Managing a Blessed Land.

Chapter 73: Jindan takes action to eliminate the Hu family? (3k)

Seven days later, in the courtyard.

The former young men of Yan Yang Sect gather together again.

Time flies, and now we have all grown up and are now twenty-six years old.

Comparing it with his appearance when he was fifteen and eighteen years old, everyone can't help but sigh with emotion.

Only eleven years have passed, and the development situation has changed drastically.

Outside the field of vision, there are undulating mountains and shrouded in clouds and mist.

The sun shines down, and the golden light is everywhere.

Everyone gathered in a spacious courtyard, surrounded by towering ancient trees and shady green trees.

The light shines through the gaps in the leaves, casting mottled shadows, like a dream.

In the courtyard, Shang Jianfeng and Shang Ruyao sat in the center of the crowd, with tall postures and outstanding temperaments.

Especially the attire of the inner disciple of Yan Yang Sect, which made his clothes flutter and his spirits high.

Everyone looked at the brother and sister, and praised them as a perfect match.

Shang Jianfeng has a handsome face and firm eyes, revealing a sense of confidence and calmness;
Shang Ruyao, on the other hand, has a beautiful appearance and a cool temperament, just like a fairy from heaven.

The temperament of the sect's disciples is quite different. To use the words on Earth, they have a student-like air.

This difference in temperament is reflected in appearance, which is young and energetic, which is extremely sensitive to Shang Fanyan, Shang Ling and a group of female fairy seedlings.

Working hard to make a living in the family, taking care of the family and dealing with the human relationships, one inevitably becomes more sophisticated and shrewd.

Everyone was curious about the life in the sect, especially the brother and sister who had now become inner sect disciples.

Shang Jianfeng started to talk slowly:

"Since we were promoted to inner disciples, all those flies were scared away by Senior Sister Yan Yingxue's reputation. Fortunately, Master and Senior Sister taught us carefully, which benefited us two brothers and sisters a lot and made rapid progress."

Different from the disheartened feeling eight years ago.

Shang Jianfeng now has a loud voice and speaks with confidence.

And as he said, it was only after becoming an inner disciple that he saw a different world of cultivation in the Yanyang Sect.

Rich in resources, the environment for cultivation is excellent.

There are also senior brothers and sisters to help us complete the tasks.

Compared with the miserable outer disciples, there is a world of difference.

Shang Ting had already anticipated this.

Over the past eight years, even the letters that Ruyao wrote to herself contained less and less complaints.

He began to worry about the family situation.

At the beginning, I was the one who stabilized Ruyao's mentality and did not let her ask the master for help. Instead, I concentrated on practicing with my brother Shang Jianfeng.

Under the guidance of Master Jiedan and Senior Sister Yan Yingxue, they made rapid progress and their cultivation level increased greatly.

He had reached the sixth level of Qi training three years ago, and would be able to advance to the seventh level within a year.

Today, the brother and sister have demonstrated their potential, and their status in the sect has risen rapidly, and they are highly respected.

His sword and knife skills are sharp, and he has made a name for himself among the younger generation of the sect.

Now it seems that we have indeed taken the right path.

Shang Ruyao continued:

"Yes, our social circle is completely different. Occasionally, Master and Senior Sister Yingxue take us to a banquet, where we can get to know many people we could only look up to normally."

"If they just reveal a little information, we can benefit a lot. Sometimes I can't help but sigh that a word of advice from high-level monks can actually change a monk's fate."

The brother and sister introduced their growth experiences in the sect, interesting people and stories to everyone, and their words were full of emotion.

The battle of slaying the demon in Qinghe Town completely changed the fate of the brother and sister.

On the side, Zhang Xiaopang, Shang Fanyan and other family cultivators who failed to enter the sect were all listening attentively, with envy in their eyes.

After getting married and having children, they were busy with their lives, worrying about trivial matters at home and in the clan.

Cultivation resources are relatively scarce and progress is slow.

On the other hand, Shang Jianfeng and Shang Ruyao had many opportunities in the sect and were able to thrive in their training.

It fascinates everyone.

They all lamented:

"It seems that even in the immortal sect, meeting a noble person is quite important."

"I really envy you. I'm trapped in the trivial life of my family every day and have forgotten the ambitions I had eleven years ago."

“Haha, who says it’s not?”

The conversation was taken over by everyone in the family.

At this time, Shang Ruyao cast her beautiful eyes towards Shang Ting and sent a message to him with an excited voice:
"Xiaoting! Uncle Yangde told me everything about you yesterday!"

"You did so many big things secretly, why didn't you write to tell me?"

"Also, the family is clearly in such danger, why do you always say in your letters that the family is fine and nothing has happened?"

Shang Ting heard the voice transmission in his ears, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Looking up at Shang Ruyao, her beautiful face was full of anger and she secretly made a face.

So many big things?

Shang Ting couldn't help but think carefully for a moment.

From the age of eighteen to now, at the age of twenty-six, what notorious things have you done?
At the Tiger Copper Mine, he rescued Xiaopang, Shang Fanyan, and Shang Ling, and killed a late-stage Qi training cultivator from the Hu family. How many middle-stage Qi training cultivators were there?

Then he killed more than a dozen invading Hu family monks, took the blood of the Hu family and returned to the family. He discovered Shang Yaoze on the spot and found out the old traitor.

Then at the age of 22, he broke through to the sixth level of Qi training.

The two things of refining the Flower Spirit Foundation-Building Pill and planning the family's secret foundation-building were not announced to the public.

When I recall the battle of Shangjia City four years ago, it is very clear.

The main purpose was to kill Hu Chengmou, who was at the peak of Qi training, and to kill dozens of elite cultivators of the Hu family.

In addition, over the past four years, I have been the second-in-command of the family and have implemented various internal and external reform measures.

Shang Ting smiled slightly and replied:
"Isn't this because I'm afraid that you will worry while practicing in the sect? Don't worry, the family situation is stable, you just need to concentrate on practicing and achieve foundation building as soon as possible."

Shang Ruyao rolled her eyes at Shang Ting and said:
"You want us to concentrate on training? You are just teasing me!"

"You are already at the seventh level of Qi training. We both have the guidance of our master and senior sister in the sect. It will take another year to advance to the seventh level of Qi training!"

"How on earth did you manage to cultivate so quickly and kill people across levels?"

Shang Ruyao was also deeply puzzled by this question.

Over the past seven days, she and Jianfeng have heard about it from their father, relatives and friends.

Only then did I gradually understand Shang Ting's status in the family and the deeds he had done, and I was completely stunned.

In terms of cultivation speed, the brother and sister, who were often praised by their master and senior sisters for their good aptitude, were left behind by Shang Ting by one year.

In terms of combat power, when Shang Ting was at the second level of Qi training, Huang Shagu killed Hu You, who was at the middle stage of Qi training.

When he was at the fifth level of Qi training, he killed a late Qi training member and several middle Qi training members from the Hu family at the Tiger Copper Mine.

When he reached the sixth level of Qi training, he even killed a peak Qi training master in a battle at the gap, and killed dozens of Hu family elites, causing serious damage to their vitality.

As for the past four years, Shangting's various reforms and progress in domestic and foreign affairs have made the family a new look and eliminated all the accumulated problems.

Over the past seven days, praise for Shang Ting has been endless from his father to all the relatives and friends.

He is a man of both wisdom and courage, with outstanding talent. He is the only choice for the eleventh head of the family and the popular choice.

After hearing this, Shang Ruyao and Shang Jianfeng almost thought that Shang Ting had taken an elixir.

Facing her and Jian Feng's surprise and confusion, Shang Ting replied calmly:

"I have a good talent for alchemy, and my technique is very suitable for me, so I am a little faster than you."

In fact, Jianfeng and Ruyao advanced to the sixth level of Qi training several months earlier than Shang Ting.

But the reason why he was surpassed by Shang Ting when he advanced to the seventh level of Qi training, and even left such a huge gap of one year, was only because of bottleneck limitations.

For Shang Ting, there is no bottleneck in the Qi training period except for building the foundation.

However, for ordinary cultivators, and even for cultivators with outstanding talents like Jianfeng Ruyao, bottleneck restrictions are inevitable.

Shang Ting only took four years, and he knew he only needed four years when he reached the fifth level of Qi training.

Jianfeng Ruyao was stuck at the bottleneck for a while and was therefore surpassed by Shang Ting.

"As for my combat prowess, it may be because I am naturally good at it."

As for the difficult-to-explain point of combat power, Shang Ting could only explain it with talent.

When Shang Ruyao heard this, she knew Shang Ting was not telling the truth, and she sent another message:

"You must be hiding some secret from me! The old patriarch said that our business has a family fortune inheritance. I think it will fall on our generation. You are the son of our family's fortune!"

When these words came out, Shang Ting was slightly surprised.

This little girl was just guessing wildly and she actually guessed it right.

However, after hearing the explanation, Shang Ruyao expressed her feelings and stopped dwelling on this issue.

Instead, he cast a mysterious and smug look at me, and said in a voice transmission:

"Xiaoting, you asked us to concentrate on our training. Sure enough, after my brother and I showed our potential, our status in the master's heart has risen sharply!"

"Before, when the master heard the reason why we asked for leave to go home, he said something special."

"The implication is that, although he won't show up, he tacitly allows us to pull up his tiger flag to scare the Hu family, saying that the Yanyang Sect wants to investigate the blood cultivation magic in Qinghe Town back then, and put pressure on the Hu family!"

Shang Ting was shocked when he heard this.

The message behind these words is not simple.

Obviously, Master Yun Ji now truly recognizes his disciples Jian Feng and Ru Yao, and believes that they have the potential to build a foundation.

Otherwise, the previous attitude of indifference will not change.

For merchants, it is equivalent to having an extra trump card in hand.

Once the Hu family regains its strength, they may seek external assistance from the Blood Demon Sect.

Then the merchants would dare to take out this card, relying on Yun Ji Zhenren's reputation as a Jindan master, to intimidate and suppress the situation.

The entire northwestern territory of Daliang Kingdom belongs to the sphere of influence of Yanyang Sect, so the deterrent power still exists.

For Jian Feng Ru Yao, it is even more worth rejoicing.

These words represent the master's true recognition.

The cultivation efforts in the future will only be more and better.

Shang Ruyao said again:
"Besides, Senior Sister Yan Yingxue likes me very much. She said that if our family is in danger, we can ask her to come and investigate!"

Now that the master and senior sisters have spoken, it seems that the brother and sister have a very good status in the sect.

Shang Ting's heart moved.

So, can we use the Yan Yang Sect to get rid of the Hu family?

After all, it is a foregone conclusion that the Hu family practices the Way of Blood, and one can find solid evidence once they investigate!
