Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 218: Chapter 149: Critical Intelligence, Departure to the Fief, Golden-eyed Monkey (Part 2)

[3: Chen Dazhu, upset that Fairy Lady Cai insisted on going to the fief despite his dissuasion, mentioned divorce in a fit of anger. Fairy Lady Cai, without saying a word, directly sought Meizhen to settle it, giving Chen Dazhu no chance to regret. The two have already signed the divorce paperwork. As a result, Chen Dazhu is filled with remorse and wants to reconcile, but Fairy Lady Cai ignores him, leading Chen Dazhu to drown his sorrows in alcohol every day.]

[4: Your eldest brother has been in seclusion for years, and the ”Dragon Elephant Wisdom Skill” he cultivates has broken through to the Qi Cultivation Third Layer as of a month ago.]

[5: The wife of Guest Elder Chen Dachu appears to be recovering but is actually at the end of her life, with only six months left. Unable to accept it, Chen Dachu died with her.]

[6: In reality, the natural Illusion Realm in Thousand Cliff Mountain, which you passed through on your way to the fief, is home to a group of Golden-eyed Apes. Their lair contains a barrel of Tier Two Low-Grade Spiritual Ape Wine, which can enhance the True Essence of Early-Stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.]

[7: Meizhen is already at the peak of the Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer, but due to her numerous responsibilities in the clan, she cannot free herself to go into seclusion and break through.]

[8: Your daughter Yaoyao awakened a small bloodline heritage on the Spirit Testing Platform and has smoothly guided Qi into her body under Grandmaster Yu’s guidance.]

[9: Your eldest son, Brother Fan, has extraordinary potential in his bones. His cultivation of the ”Dragon Elephant Wisdom Skill” will bring unexpected surprises.]

[10.....]

....

Exchanged twenty pieces of information in one go.

Fu Changsheng silently noted down the useful ones before pushing open the door to leave.

Because it’s almost time to head to the fief.

Liuu Meizhen had already gathered important tribal members above the steward level in the Council Hall in advance. Nanny Liu, who was guarding the secret chamber door, quickly said upon seeing Fu Changsheng emerge from seclusion:

”Patriarch, Madam asked you to visit the Council Hall after leaving seclusion.”

Arriving at the Council Hall.

He saw that Molan, who had been in seclusion for many years, the fourth sister Changli, and the eldest brother Changren all emerged from seclusion. When Fu Changsheng appeared, everyone stood up and saluted with cupped hands:

”Greetings, Patriarch.”

Now Fu Changsheng is not only the head of the Fu Family but also the family’s only Foundation Establishment Cultivator, with a status incomparable to before.

After Fu Changsheng took his seat.

Liuu Meizhen said:

”Husband, according to your list for those heading to the fief, everyone has gathered. Additionally, the secular clansmen who need to move to the fief have also gathered in Nanyang County, just waiting for the Shangguan Family’s Treasure Ship to arrive before we can set off.”

”The plan has changed; the Shangguan Family can’t spare the manpower. This time we’ll go to the fief by ourselves, without Treasure Ship transportation. The mundane humans will have to wait for the next opportunity to migrate.”

The clan has only one Flying Ship belonging to Fu Changsheng.

The Flying Ship can only carry five people.

So bringing along mundane humans is naturally impossible.

Liuu Meizhen, hearing this, was somewhat worried:

”In that case, should we postpone our departure for a month? If we proceed at the Flying Ship’s speed, we can rush to meet the deadline for the handover with the World Suppression Bureau, given that nothing goes wrong on the way.”

Fu Changsheng shook his head.

This handover is particularly important.

If they are delayed along the way, it will be considered as forfeiture. The Yunshan County fief is something they fought hard to acquire.

So, without hesitation, Fu Changsheng said:

”Let’s go with the previously decided time and set off at dawn tomorrow. Everyone should use the remaining time to finish any pending tasks. If there’s nothing else, let’s disperse.”

Everyone obeyed and left.

But Fu Changsheng stopped Fu Changren:

”Elder brother, hold on.”

Fu Changren, upon hearing this, sat back down on the right-hand side. Liuu Meizhen, seeing this, also stayed behind.

Fu Changsheng immediately said:

”Elder brother, how’s your progress in cultivating the ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom Skill’? Is everything going smoothly?”

”Dragon Elephant Wisdom Skill” is, after all, an Earth-Tier Technique.

Although Fu Changren had no one to guide him, so far he has encountered no challenges.

After some small talk.

Fu Changsheng got to the point:

”Elder brother, Brother Fan is already six years old this year, and his spiritual roots have been tested. I want him to cultivate the ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom Skill’ by your side; do you find this convenient?”

Fu Changren was taken aback.

To have him cultivate alongside him.

He’s not following the usual cultivation path.

And there’s no precedent for this in the clan.

He’s been figuring it out by trial and error. Brother Fan is the primary successor of the patriarch’s bloodline; having him cultivate the ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom Skill’ could be risky?!

Fu Changren was instinctively about to advise against it.

But seeing Liuu Meizhen seated beside him with no objections.

In a moment of clarity.

He suddenly realized that Brother Fan likely has Five Spirit Roots. Otherwise, the Patriarch and his wife wouldn’t take such a risk.

Immediately, he got up and respectfully said:

”Rest assured, Patriarch. I will undoubtedly dedicate myself fully to guiding Brother Fan in his cultivation.”

”Then I leave it to you, elder brother. Also, Meizhen is on the verge of a breakthrough and might need your help managing some of the Clan Mountain’s miscellaneous affairs.”

”Yes, Patriarch.”

Fu Changren agreed and accepted.

Having re-entered cultivation and possessing the strength of the Qi Cultivation Third Layer, he has regained his lost confidence, making him feel more assured in managing the miscellaneous affairs.

Thus, his voice became much more resonant.

Fu Changsheng pointed to the Human Puppet beside him:

”Elder brother, during this time, Shadow the First will act following your orders. He’s at the Peak of Qi Cultivation; for any unresolved matters, feel free to instruct him to handle them.”

Liuu Meizhen also hurriedly added:

”Elder brother, you may also freely use my Spirit Pet, the Windbreak Beast.”

After all, most of the clan’s elites have left.

Liuu Meizhen herself needs to go into seclusion, so there’s some unrest left behind. But the Windbreak Beast has Quasi-Second-Tier strength. With it around, plus two sets of Tier Two Mountain Protection Arrays, defending the Clan Mountain shouldn’t be an issue.
