Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 751: Chapter 302: Promotion, Lover, Wrath of the Golden Core (10,000-Word Combined Chapter) (Part 2)

A flick of the sleeve.

The Celestial Dragon Warship, with its invisibility restriction activated, suddenly hovered over the Patriarch’s Mansion. Fu Yongshang organized his trading team, boarding the ship in an orderly manner.

Buzz!

The Celestial Dragon Warship slowly exited the mountain gate.

Fu Changsheng glanced back at the main peak Taiyi Peak of the Taiqiu Mountain Range behind him.

The massive body of a Four-winged Red Python coiled within a valley, its fiery red scales reflecting sunlight like burning flames. Its four wings slightly retracted, with faint spiritual power emanating as it breathed. In his heart, Fu Changsheng silently said to it, ”Guard this place well.”

.....

Jingzhou.

On the border of Taishan County at a place called Cangling Peak, Cangling Peak contains weak spiritual qi, with its tier just barely reaching Tier One Low-Grade Spiritual Spring. Niu Erzhuang, sitting cross-legged and cultivating in his cave mansion, suddenly felt something was wrong and opened his eyes abruptly.

In the cave mansion.

Unknowingly.

A black-clothed figure stood before him, exuding a terrifying aura at least tenfold that of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator. This must be the legendary Great Cultivator of the Purple Mansion; but why would such a great cultivator appear in this remote place?

Niu Erzhuang couldn’t understand.

Yet he stood up swiftly, tremblingly saying:

”For... revered elder, I don’t know if there’s anything a small fry like me can do to assist you?”

The black-clothed person sneered disdainfully.

The five fingers of his right hand curled, quickly grabbing onto Niu Erzhuang’s skull like lightning:

”Spare me, elder, I still have a daughter who is gravely ill and...”

His words were abruptly cut off.

In front of the Purple Mansion.

A Qi Cultivator had no chance to resist.

Having performed the Soul Searching Technique, the brows of the Purple Mansion figure slightly relaxed, muttering to himself:

”Niu Chunxiu?”

The black-clothed person’s five fingers applied a little pressure.

Niu Erzhuang’s head burst like a watermelon with a pop, his whole being turning to ash instantly.

The black-clothed person skimmed a Storage Ring, and a dark Ten Thousand Miles Communication Talisman appeared quickly in his hand. He injected it with a technique, and although he did not see the person on the other end, he spoke with respect:

”Reporting to Elder Yun, this subordinate discovered that before Young Master Taiying’s death, he captured two female cultivators of the Pure Yin Body, namely Niu Chunxiu and Madam Luoo’s adopted daughter, Yongwei. The Life Soul Lamp belonging to Niu Chunxiu at home was still lit, indicating that the person who killed the Young Master probably abducted Niu Chunxiu and the other. As long as we find these two, we can find the true murderer of the Young Master.”

.....

Meanwhile, in a secret chamber of the Joy Sect in the Land of the Far West.

Master Yun, upon receiving the message, narrowed his eyes slightly, gleams of cold light flashing within them. He quickly retrieved another Communication Jade Talisman from his sleeve, pointed at it lightly, infusing it with spiritual power. The jade talisman trembled slightly as he spoke in low tones.

Soon after, the Intelligence Hall of Joy Sect bustled into action.

Disciples in the Intelligence Hall swiftly flipped through various documents, looking for information related to Yongwei and Niu Chunxiu. Their actions were quick and orderly, clearly accustomed to such urgent tasks.

About half an hour later, the Hall Master of Intelligence Hall personally visited, entering Master Yun’s secret chamber. Holding a hefty document, with a serious expression, he quickly approached Master Yun and respectfully handed it over.

”Reporting to Elder Yun,”

”We found some clues within the Eighth-Grade Fu Family in Jingzhou South Huai Prefecture. The Fu Family has two female cultivators named Niu Chunxiu and Yongwei; they appeared in the Fu Family right after Young Master Taiying’s death, at a time consistent with Patriarch Fu Changsheng returning from Jingzhou with them. Based on our investigation, the real culprit behind the murder of Young Master Taiying is highly likely Fu Changsheng.”

Upon hearing this, Master Yun’s eyes flashed with a cold glint, quickly scanning over the document and then fixating on an image.

The image depicted a person with a tall and upright figure, wearing a moon-white robe that fluttered with the wind, the hems adorned with lively cloud patterns. His black hair was tied with a white jade hairpin, his face angular and defined, with brows like swords extending into his temples, eyes deep and bright, and a high nose bridge, with a slightly raised thin lips forming a faint smile.

It was indeed Fu Changsheng’s recent appearance.

Staring at the image, a colder light shone in Master Yun’s eyes:

”Issue the order, immediately send the insiders stationed in Jingzhou to South Huai Prefecture, and make sure to uncover Fu Changsheng’s whereabouts. Communicate with me at once, go quickly!”

The Intelligence Hall’s Hall Master bowed and replied, ”Yes, Elder Yun.”

After carefully withdrawing from the room,

Master Yun took out from his Storage Ring a Ten Thousand Miles Communication Talisman radiating an eerie glow:

”The real murderer of Taiying has been discovered.

It is Fu Changsheng of the Eighth-Grade Noble Family in South Huai Prefecture.

Shi Ying, you are to set out to South Huai Prefecture immediately.

Remember, leave no one from the Fu Family alive.”

Upon finishing the communication, the glow of the Ten Thousand Miles Communication Talisman in Master Yun’s hand gradually dimmed. He placed the talisman back in the Storage Ring, then leaned back in the chair, a vicious glint flickering in his eyes, as if already seeing the tragic demise of the Fu Family.

.....

Jingzhou.

Upon hearing the transmission, Yun Shiying felt a sense of relief.

He originally thought the one who killed Yun Taiying was a Great Cultivator of the Purple Mansion, or even a Golden Core Master; since it’s just a small Eighth-Grade Fu Family, it’s nothing to fear.

However.

As the borders of Jingzhou are currently only allowed entry without exit, the killing of Fu Changsheng must be postponed.

But if he remembered correctly.

The Lady of the Fu Family, Liuu Meizhen, was in the Cloud Dragon Marketplace of Jingzhou, having opened a store there, and not long ago took over Madam Luo’s manor and estate:

”Hmph, it might be good to kill Liuu Meizhen first to give the elders some satisfaction.”

Since they were to eliminate the roots completely.

It’s naturally best to leave no one alive.
