Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 206: Chapter 145: Strange Happenings in the Clan, Mysterious Identity, Advancement to Tier Two Middle-Grade Talisman Maker (2)

”It’s over, it’s over...”

Chen Dazhu sat on the ground, his eyes devoid of light.

Fairy Lady Cai tapped the ground lightly, her body agilely using the lotus leaves on the lake to flicker a few times, and then appeared above the chicken coop in the lake.

She took a closer look.

She saw that the thousands of Snow Cloud Chickens raised in the coop had all turned into piles of white bone overnight:

”This...”

Fairy Lady Cai felt a chill in her heart.

She dared not delay.

Immediately flickering several times out of the lake coop, she was about to report this matter face-to-face to Liuu Meizhen, when she happened to encounter Li Renwei stumbling out of the silkworm chamber.

Li Renwei not only managed the Weaving Hall in the Fu Family but also looked after the Celestial Silk Worms of the clan.

Fairy Lady Cai glanced at the silkworm chamber not far away, a bad feeling creeping into her mind:

”Master Li, is something wrong with the Celestial Silk Worms?”

Li Renwei only reached Fairy Lady Cai’s waist in height.

He seemed on the verge of tears.

He sobbed:

”Fellow Daoist Cai, I’m afraid my good days in the Fu Family are over. The Celestial Silk Worms in the chamber have all turned into cocoons overnight. I’ve let the Patriarch down...”

He had barely managed to live a decent life.

But overnight.

The harsh reality struck him back to his original state.

Fairy Lady Cai’s heart trembled at his words, not only were the Snow Cloud Chickens and Bailing Fish affected, but now even the Celestial Silk Worms were in trouble. This matter was of great importance, and she didn’t have time to explain to Li Renwei. She quickly activated a Rapid Movement Talisman and rushed towards Luofeng Mountain at great speed.

When she reached the Council Hall of Luofeng Mountain.

She saw.

There were already a few people waiting in front of the Council Hall. Judging by their expressions, all of them were in a state of panic. After asking, she learned that on Illusion Jade Peak, the Purple-horned Deer, and the Silver-Spotted Poison Snakes in the moat, among all the clan’s spirit beasts, had also all become piles of skeletal remains overnight!

Fortunately.

No injuries or deaths among people had been reported yet.

With such a major incident happening in the clan, yet the Lady of the House had not appeared for a long time, everyone couldn’t help but start to worry and engage in whispered conversations:

”I’ve heard that once a family is elevated to a Noble Family status, the other seven Ninth-Grade Noble Families can begin to take action against our Fu Family. Almost all the demon beasts in the clan died overnight. Could it be the handiwork of some Noble Family?”

Fairy Lady Cai cut off the speculation immediately:

”Our Clan Mountain has two Tier Two Protective Arrays, and with Grandmaster Yu overseeing things, even if the other Ninth-Grade Noble Families wanted to act against us, they couldn’t get in. Let’s not speculate randomly before the matter is clear to avoid causing panic.”

At her words.

Everyone closed their mouths, not speaking any further.

During this time.

The Fu Family elders were all in seclusion.

Only the Lady of the House handled the miscellaneous affairs, but she had not shown up, and during the waiting, everyone became anxious. This news reached Moon Lake Academy.

In the academy, they were all from the Yong Generation.

Upon hearing the news.

They all immediately became agitated:

”Third Brother, Fourth Brother, let’s go. Something’s happened in the clan, we can’t just sit here doing nothing.”

”Seventh Brother, wait for me, I want to go too.”

”I’m going as well.”

”Count me in!”

”...”

In an instant.

The academy was bustling.

Everyone was about to leave the academy, wanting to investigate the scene and find the real culprit!

Stone Fu Yongyi, sitting at the head, frowned.

He had already broken through to the Middle Stage of Qi Cultivation. Today he was also going to share his cultivation insights on breaking through to the fourth layer of Qi Cultivation. Watching a group of clan brothers, who had only reached the first and second layers of Qi Cultivation, excitedly preparing to run out of the academy, Brother Fan being swept away with the crowd, he immediately flickered, his body ghost-like, passing through the crowd, grabbing Brother Fan, and flickering back to the podium, immediately using Amplification Technique:

”All of you, stop right there!”

The voice was powerful and deafening.

The initially noisy crowd instantly fell silent.

They were all newly advanced Qi Cultivation clan members, still young, while Fu Yongyi was several years older than them and had already reached the Middle Stage of Qi Cultivation. Usually silent and reserved, his stern demeanor made everyone a little afraid, and they all stopped in their tracks.

Fu Yongyi spoke coldly:

”In the moat, there are three Silver-Spotted Poison Snakes of Tier One Peak level, yet they all died silently. Even if you encountered the real culprit, what could you do with your cultivation? If you want to help the clan with its worries, then return to your positions and stay put quietly.”

....

In Moon Lake.

With a splash.

Liuu Meizhen burst out of the water.

Chasing from the backyard all the way here, she lost track, seeing the entire lake filled with the corpses of Bailing Fish, Liuu Meizhen’s heart trembled. At this moment, a series of urgent buzzing sounds came from her waist, and after casting a technique into the Communication Talisman and listening to the reports from other hall masters, her heartbeat instantly accelerated.

Her body flickered several times, swiftly returning to the backyard of Luofeng Mountain.

Nanny Liuu hurriedly followed:

”Madam, I’ve already gathered all the clan members in the mountain to the Council Hall as you instructed, apart from Qiu Niang and those in seclusion. Everyone is present with no injuries. But no one has reported seeing Brother Rong.”

”Madam, with such a major event happening in the clan, do you think the Patriarch should be brought out of seclusion?”

Liuu Meizhen hesitated slightly:

”Let’s wait a bit longer!”

Immediately, she flickered, heading towards the back mountain.

Although she could control the Mountain Protection Array, she could only activate it simply, not capable of methodically searching Luofeng Mountain and Niushou Mountain inch by inch. Currently, only Grandmaster Yu could do that.

Earlier, she had already checked, and the Mountain Protection Array had not been damaged.
