Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 163: Chapter 131: Foundation Establishment

Although he didn’t know who was attacking the Fu Family this time, he and his wife were merely employed by the Fu Family, and as long as they fled quickly, it wouldn’t affect them.

Saying so, Chen Dazhu was about to rush into the courtyard.

He still had quite a stash of private money hidden.

Behind him, however, came the cold, icy voice of Fairy Lady Cai: ”If you want to escape, go by yourself. Yulian and I won’t go with you.”

”What?”

Not going.

Isn’t that staying here to accompany the Fu Family to their grave?

Aren’t you a fool!

Chen Dazhu blew his beard, widened his eyes:

”You woman, you usually seem so shrewd, how can you become muddleheaded at critical times.

This Luofeng Mountain and Niushou Mountain belong to the Fu Family, nothing to do with us, we’re just long-term workers, if the landowner is in trouble, we won’t foolishly follow them to the grave.

I’m the head of the household, this family has to listen to me, hurry up and leave, don’t linger around here!”

Fairy Lady Cai shook off Chen Dazhu’s hand.

In these years at the Fu Family, life was comfortable, and after being promoted to Master of the Spirit Plant Hall, she developed a mentor-apprentice bond with her disciples. Although not born into the Fu Family, she developed a sense of belonging to it.

Most importantly.

After moving into the Fu Family, her daughter Yulian’s health improved day by day. Although the reason couldn’t be found, it was clearly related to living there.

There was hope for her daughter’s recovery.

If they left, coming back would be as good as a pipe dream.

Fairy Lady Cai was somewhat exasperated:

”You old fool, you’re old enough, yet you speak and act without thinking. The Fu Family isn’t the same Fu Family from ten years ago; now there are two sets of Tier Two Mountain Protection Arrays, and Grandmaster Yu presides over the Array. Even if several Foundation Establishment cultivators come, they can’t break in without a good ten days to half a month. By that time, the reinforcements from the Shangguan Family will have arrived long ago, you coward, why are you running away?!”

Yulian also whispered beside her:

”Father, if Yaoyao doesn’t see me, she’ll cry and fuss endlessly.”

Over the past two years.

Yaoyao and Yulian were almost inseparable. Yulian, having no playmates since childhood, already regarded Yaoyao as her own little sister, naturally reluctant to leave.

Chen Dazhu rolled his eyes in exasperation:

”Why are you two so stubborn? Better safe than sorry. If the Fu Family really is breached, aren’t we gambling our whole family’s lives? The two of us are old enough, but Yulian is still very young; we can’t let her take this risk with us, it’s not worth it.”

Fairy Lady Cai didn’t pay attention, pulling Yulian towards the Council Hall on the main peak of Luofeng Mountain, leaving Chen Dazhu anxiously pacing in circles, finally cursing as he followed along.

After a cup of tea.

The entire Luofeng Mountain and Niushou Mountain lit up with seven dazzling starlights, the Star Power operating at full speed, and all the clansmen gathered in the Council Hall, including Guest Elders Tian Runzhi, Chen Dachu, and Li Renwei. Fairy Lady Cai’s family was the latest to arrive.

Liuu Meizhen sat at the head, and after seeing everyone was present, she spoke:

”According to the reports from the scouts, the Liuu Family Patriarch Liuu Qingyun has successfully achieved Foundation Establishment and is now leading troops here. I have already sent a distress signal to the Shangguan Family in advance, and I trust reinforcements will arrive soon. Therefore, we need not panic; follow the rehearsals and head to the respective Array Hubs of the Mountain Protection Arrays you are responsible for. As long as we unite, the Liuu Family cannot possibly break the Mountain Protection Arrays or breach us. Everyone, do you have confidence?!”

”Yes!”

Over these years of development.

The Fu Family now had over seventy Qi Cultivators, trained for a thousand days for one use. The first batch of Qi Cultivation clan members already had many who broke through to the Qi Cultivation Third Layer, forming a battle array using Array Power, barely acquiring combat capability.

Everyone left the Council Hall one after another.

Liuu Meizhen, however, called Tian Runzhi and several Guest Elders to stay, and with a wave of her sleeve, several storage bags floated towards them:

”As the saying goes, when disaster strikes, everyone flies their own way. If any of the Guest Elders have thoughts of leaving, do so before the Liuu Family arrives. Consider the few Spirit Stones in the storage bags as meager compensation for your contributions to the Fu Family over the years.”

Before she finished speaking.

Tian Runzhi stood up:

”Lady of the House, my life was saved by the Patriarch. Live as a member of the Fu Family, die as a ghost of the Fu Family; I’ve long sworn a blood oath to live and die with the Fu Family.”

Li Renwei, being short, jumped down from his chair and cupped his fists:

”If it weren’t for the Patriarch, I would still be fooled by that despicable woman Lei Yanhong, serving the Lei Family. Lady of the House, like Fellow Daoist Tian, I vow to protect the Fu Family to the death.”

Chen Dachu also smiled and said, ”My wife owes her life to the Patriarch’s bestowed pill to survive until now. This life-saving grace must be repaid profusely. Besides, Changlii and I have long sworn brotherhood, thus the Fu Family is my family. In times of trouble, how can one flee the battlefield? I also won’t leave!”

Amid their declarations, Chen Dazhu didn’t hear a word, constantly trying to signal Fairy Lady Cai, making a last-ditch effort, but Fairy Lady Cai cupped her hands and said:

”Lady of the House, back then, my husband and I were forced to make a living and planned to go hunting in the mountains with companions. If not for the Patriarch asking us to guard the Spirit Field, we might have already become demon beast fodder. Besides, Yulian and Yaoyao are like sisters. If we left, Yaoyao would definitely cry every day.”

All present had received favors from Fu Changsheng.

Liuu Meizhen felt touched, bowing deeply, for her previous words were merely a test. Before this, she had instructed Grandmaster Yu that if any of them truly wished to leave, they should be struck down using Array Power as they exited the Array!
