Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 439: Chapter 223: Slap, Teaching a Daughter, Noble Family Rise and Fall (Part 2)

Liuu Meizhen rubbed her temples:

”Yaoyao, do you know where you went wrong today?”

”Mother, if you were present and heard those words, you would have certainly acted even more forcefully than I did.”

Yaoyao refused to admit her mistakes.

Liuu Meizhen pointed to the Grandmaster’s Chair beside her, and after Yaoyao sat down, she spoke earnestly:

”Yaoyao, I’m not blaming you for targeting the Hee Family’s girl. Hee Jiumei ridiculed your brother, and I understand your anger and desire for revenge. However, remember one thing your mother says.”

”Do not easily reveal your hostility to your enemies.”

”Moreover,”

”If you must act, strike to kill, leaving no hidden dangers. Do you understand?”

Yaoyao blinked.

But Hee Jiumei isn’t guilty enough to deserve death.

Liuu Meizhen saw that she had not yet realized this, shook her head, and said no more, instead stating:

”Yaoyao, you have now reached the Peak of Qi Cultivation. I have discussed with Grandpa Yu, and Yu Qingru will take over your work for the upcoming city construction. You should retreat for cultivation and prepare to start Foundation Establishment.”

As she spoke.

She patted the storage bag.

A flash of Dawn Light.

A pill bottle floated towards Fu Yaoyao.

Fu Yaoyao glanced over it, saw that it was the Foundation Establishment Pill, her eyes brightened, but then she quickly shook her head:

”Mother, save this Foundation Establishment Pill for Brother. With my aptitude, I can succeed at Foundation Establishment even without using the Foundation Establishment Pill.”

Upon hearing this.

Liuu Meizhen’s expression changed:

”You little girl, who told you these foolish ideas? Do you realize that without the Foundation Establishment Pill to protect your heart and veins, if Foundation Establishment fails, what consequences there might be? Damage to your foundation is the least of it; carelessness could lead to death. Do you want your father and I to bury our child with white hair?”

”Mother, the books say so, and without the Foundation Establishment Pill, the mana becomes even purer, sharper than ordinary Foundation Establishment True Essence.”

She appeared fearless like a newborn calf unafraid of a tiger.

Liuu Meizhen was quite troubled.

Among her triplets.

Brother Fan was sensible since childhood; the second was always asleep after eating, requiring almost no supervision, but this daughter was quite mischievous, always causing worry.

Liuu Meizhen patiently said:

”What you’re talking about is Ancient Foundation Establishment, which has been lost for countless millennia. Get rid of such thoughts and seriously take the Foundation Establishment Pill for Foundation Establishment. As for your brother’s Foundation Establishment, leave it to your father and me to worry about. Don’t concern yourself with it. Do you understand?”

”Oh.”

Yaoyao felt a little disappointed.

She had been considering trying the Ancient Foundation Establishment.

Liuu Meizhen gave earnest reminders once more, and only after Yaoyao repeatedly promised did she allow her to retreat for cultivation.

The Thousand Sun Stone given in advance as dowry by the Hee Family had been sent to the Fu Family’s territory. With the Thousand Sun Stone, the construction of the city was put on the agenda.

For this purpose.

Liuu Meizhen specially convened an Elder Council meeting.

At this meeting.

Liuu Meizhen also notified Yu Qingru to participate.

Once everyone was present.

Liuu Meizhen began:

”Today’s gathering is to discuss the division of labor in city construction. Before we start, let’s have Uncle Yu explain the overall structure of this Demon-Defying City.”

Grandmaster Yu sat at the primary seat on the upper right.

With a wave of his sleeve.

A map unfurled slowly:

”This Demon-Defying City is divided structurally into the Outer City, Inner City, and the Buffer Zone between the inner and outer city walls, commonly referred to as the antechamber area. If the outer city wall is breached, the inner city wall can still hold the Beast Tide, and the antechamber area can serve as a defensive trap zone. Outside the city, there is a Moat, and a drawbridge connects the city inside and outside.”

He paused for a moment.

Grandmaster Yu pointed to the tall Star-Receiving Tower in the Inner City:

”This tower is the core hub of the entire Demon-Defying City.”

The crowd examined closely.

Building this Demon-Defying City would definitely take over three to five years.

However.

Even just the defensive structure looked extraordinary.

Liuu Meizhen tapped the table and said:

”As everyone has seen, the construction of the Demon-Defying City is a heavy workload. Therefore, the family’s entire focus will be centered around this. Please discuss how to allocate tasks to establish this Demon-Defying City with maximum efficiency.”

Once the Beast Tide erupts.

This Demon-Defying City is their first line of defense, and most critical. Everyone was highly engaged in the discussion.

The meeting continued from morning until nightfall.

Ultimately, under Liuu Meizhen’s adjustments.

The entire city construction project took the form of an industrial chain structure, with each process assigned to the same group of people for completion, like machinery processing.

Additionally.

From the Taiyun County Liuu Family, the Talisman Array Masters were similarly organized.

Because every foundation stone and city wall required Talisman Array inscriptions, so the Talisman Array Masters were dedicated to specific talisman arrays like the Fire-Resistant Talisman Array, No-Fly Talisman Array, etc.

The entire project seemed extensive.

Yet it proceeded in an orderly fashion. With Fu Molan’s crafted puppets working tirelessly day and night, the construction of the Demon-Defying City progressed faster than expected.

By October.

During Fu Yongyi and Hee Qingru’s wedding.

The Moat was completed, and even the Outer City Wall construction had begun.

When Hee Clan Leader came to deliver the bride, he was shocked by the Fu Family’s assembly line-like operations, something unprecedented for him.

Simultaneously.

Regarding the preliminarily formed Demon-Defying City.

He vaguely felt it was far more formidable than the Tier Three Mountain Protection Array.

Upon leaving the Fu Family territory, he detoured to the Cao Family.

When the old Cao Clan Leader heard about Hee Clan Leader’s visit, he personally emerged from the Secret Chamber to welcome him. Hee Clan Leader took a glance and discovered that, after several years, the Cao Clan Leader’s injuries had not improved; instead, they had worsened.
