Chapter 312: Chapter 312: Jiuzhou Boils Chapter 312: Chapter 312: Jiuzhou Boils “The Beidou family is returning? How can this be? With the Beidou family being so terrifying, who in Jiuzhou could possibly handle them?”

“Did I hear that right? The Beidou family is coming back! They are the true rulers of our Jiuzhou! Is the news reliable?”

“Jiuzhou is about to undergo a upheaval, first Feng Wuchen, now the Beidou family.”

The news of the Beidou family’s return spread like a plague across all the major powers, cities, and families of Jiuzhou.

“Time is critical, head to the Beidou family immediately. We must be the first to reach the Beidou family!”

“With the Beidou family being so terrifying, if we could forge a good relationship with them, the rise of our Wang family is just around the corner!”

“Hurry! Prepare the best gifts and set off!”

A family head was urgently ordering, hoping to be the first to reach the Beidou family and make a good impression.

“This sudden return of the Beidou family must be an attempt to dominate Jiuzhou once again. We need to hurry; this is a chance for our Gong family to rise to prominence!”

“Family Head! The top-quality heaven and earth treasures have all been prepared!”

“Good! Visit the Beidou family immediately!”

…

“Fantastic! The Beidou family has returned! My Yang family has been silent for far too long! Finally, the day for us to rise has come!”

On this day, Jiuzhou boiled with excitement!

The news permeated every corner of Jiuzhou, and some of the stronger families were rushing to the Beidou family in no time, not even waiting for the next day.

The Beidou family was too strong!

Even though they had been in hiding for decades, their influence and deterrent power were still present.

The existence of the Beidou family sent shivers down the spine.

In a boiling Jiuzhou, some powers were excited while others were anxious.

The return of the former ruler was clearly an attempt to reclaim the throne and overhaul the power structure of Jiuzhou.

Xiewang Sect’s grand hall.

The look on the face of the Sect Master of Xiehun was gloomy, as were those of the elders.

“Hidden for decades, who could have expected the Beidou family to return after all!” Xiehun said in a deep voice, his complexion extremely ugly.

“In three days, the Desolate Domain will open, and the Beidou family has chosen this moment to return. Clearly, they are warning us to submit to the Beidou family!” the Head Elder said angrily, his old eyes narrowed, not hiding his ferocity.

“Is the Beidou family really that strong?” Xie Tian frowned, having never heard of the Beidou family’s existence.

“Young Sect Master, the strength of the Beidou family is beyond your imagination. All the great powers and families of Jiuzhou combined couldn’t stand against them, and moreover, the Family Head of the Beidou family has likely already reached the Eightfold Tianyuan Realm!” the Third Elder shook his head, looking powerless.

How terrifying was the Eightfold Tianyuan Realm?

The follower of Zhang Junlan was of the Eightfold Tianyuan Realm, and he killed Xiao Ran of the Fivefold Tianyuan Realm with a single strike, who had no chance to fight back.

Even those of the Sixfold Tianyuan Realm faced the same fate!

If the Family Head of the Beidou family truly reached the Eightfold Tianyuan Realm, who else in Jiuzhou could match them?

Even Feng Wuchen didn’t have that capability!

“So strong!” Xie Tian was greatly shaken, his expression somewhat startled.

Xiehun slowly closed his eyes and took a deep breath, saying, “Let’s watch for changes.”

…

The grand hall of the Nangong family.

Needless to say, the news had also reached the Nangong family.

Though the Nangong family had suffered greatly, as long as Nangong Lie was still there, they remained the Nangong family.

“Father, with the Beidou family’s return, we can use their power to eliminate Feng Wuchen and avenge Zhan!” Nangong Tianhen said viciously in the grand hall.

“Silence!” Nangong Lie shouted sternly, his majestic presence enveloping the hall.

“Tianhen, things are not as simple as you think.” Nangong Yuwen shook his head and said, “The return of the Beidou family undoubtedly signifies their intent to reclaim control and dominate Jiuzhou. This means that the Nangong family must also submit. Do you understand what that means?”

If the Nangong family, as one of the leading powers of Jiuzhou, were to submit to the Beidou family, where would their face be? Would the Nangong family still have a future to speak of?

“…” Nangong Tianhen was not unaware, but his mind was clouded by hatred, focused solely on avenging Nangong Zhan and eliminating Feng Wuchen.

“Beidou Xuan has likely reached the Eightfold Tianyuan Realm!” Nangong Wuhen said, furrowing his brows deeply, a hint of fear flashing in his eyes.

After a long silence, Nangong Lie said assertively, “The Nangong family will never submit!”

The great powers of Jiuzhou had each been fighting for many years, all built by their own hands, all their life’s blood.

With the advent of the Beidou family, they wanted to take control, to oversee all forces and families in Jiuzhou. As a major power in Jiuzhou, how could they willingly submit?

An invitation from the Beidou family, declining it would be a direct offense, and the consequences were unthinkable.

Even if they did go, they would still have to submit to the Beidou family. If they refused, the Beidou family would certainly make an example of someone, suppressing the powers and families of Jiuzhou with brute force.

The powers of Jiuzhou had no choice.

The Beidou family was too dominant, powerful to the point that they could not resist. A mere command from the Beidou family could destroy their powers and families in an instant.

The Xiao family.

The death of Xiao Ran greatly diminished the Xiao family’s strength and filled them with fury and sorrow.

The strength of Feng Wuchen was too great; the Xiao family could not seek revenge, especially not against Zhang Junlan’s teacher. The Xiao family couldn’t even defeat Feng Wuchen, much less the Zhang family.

But amidst the Xiao family’s anger and grief, the news of the Beidou family’s return brought a glimmer of hope.

“Father! Don’t hesitate anymore! I cannot swallow this grievance! Only by killing Feng Wuchen can we have peaceful days. Without his death, Big Brother won’t rest in peace!” Xiao Qingshan said, grinding his teeth in anger.

“Feng Wuchen is arrogant and domineering, and the Xiao Family cannot tolerate this. The death of Xiao Ran will not be left unavenged. If we can get the support of the Beidou family, what does submission matter? With their support, the Xiao Family might just rise to power!” the Second Elder said in a heavy voice.

“We must eliminate Feng Wuchen! To avenge the Family Head!”

“To avenge the Family Head!”

The high-ranking members of the Xiao Family had had enough, and even Xiao Yuanshan felt that Feng Wuchen had gone too far.

To submit to the Beidou family was the only way the Xiao Family could eliminate Feng Wuchen and avenge Xiao Ran.

With the strength of the Beidou family, getting rid of Feng Wuchen wouldn’t be difficult.

At the main seat, Xiao Tianchen had aged so much that he looked exceedingly haggard and spoke hoarsely, “Has the Xiao Family really fallen so low?”

…

The news of the Beidou family’s return was spreading far and wide throughout Jiuzhou.

But to Feng Wuchen, it was as if nothing had happened at all; he was out strolling the streets of Divine Pill City with Ling Xiaoxiao and the others.

“Big brother Feng, aren’t you worried about the Beidou family at all?” Liu Qingyang frowned as he spoke on the streets of Divine Pill City.

Looking at the unconcerned and casual Feng Wuchen, Liu Qingyang was truly anxious.

“The Beidou family is so strong, what’s the use of worrying? Instead of worrying, it’s better to think about how to improve your cultivation faster,” Feng Wuchen shrugged nonchalantly.

“Big brother Feng, where are we going?” Miao Qingqing asked.

“Dongyun City,” Feng Wuchen replied, pacing out of Divine Pill City neither too fast nor too slow.

Dongyun City was located south of Divine Pill City, not far away.

In ten minutes, Feng Wuchen and his group arrived at the gates of Dongyun City.

“Greetings, Alchemist Emperor!” At the entrance of Dongyun City, four middle-aged men bowed with respect, followed by several elders and other middle-aged men who also paid their respects.

They were from Dongyun City’s four major families, the Han, Huang, Song, and Liu families.

Knowing that Feng Wuchen had arrived at Dongyun City, they had all come to personally welcome him without any delay.

“Hmm,” Feng Wuchen nodded slightly.

“Alchemist Emperor, the Bingpo Snow Lotus is an extremely cold object that cannot bear light, and it would be a trouble to have the Alchemist Emperor go and see it personally,” Han Family Head said respectfully, quickly inviting Feng Wuchen into the city.

“How many?” Feng Wuchen asked.

“Not many, just eighteen,” the Han Family Head replied respectfully.

“Hmm, that’s enough,” Feng Wuchen nodded.

The family heads of the four families in Dongyun City personally greeted Feng Wuchen at the city gate, attracting many onlookers.

Who was this person with such grandeur, prompting the four family heads and high-ranking members to greet him personally?

“That young man is really impressive, what’s his background? Those two women with him are really beautiful!”

“Tsk tsk, personally welcomed by the four big families, so impressive! Wonder who he is.”

“He’s not from Dongyun City; I’ve never seen him before.”

The crowd was abuzz with discussion, as it was truly uncommon within Dongyun City for the four major families to personally greet a young man.

The Han Family Mansion.

The backyard.

Han Family Head led Feng Wuchen and his group to the underground ice cellar.

The ice cellar was frosty and bone-chilling, its cold aura oppressive.

Besides that, there were the scents of many herbal medicines and the spiritual energy was exceptionally dense.

This was where Han Family Head cultivated medicinal herbs!

The Han Family Head was a Third-grade Alchemist. Although his realms were not high, he was fond of planting medicinal herbs.

“Family Head Han, isn’t this ice cellar a bit too cold?” Liu Qingyang asked with a shiver. Even the Sixth Layer of the Yuandan Realm could not withstand this cold air, showing that it was no ordinary chill.

“The Bingpo Snow Lotus thrives in an extremely harsh environment, ordinary cold air simply can’t support its growth. The cold air in the ice house is refined for forty-nine days, making it extremely suitable for the growth of the Bingpo Snow Lotus, but there are only eighteen plants,” Han Family Head patiently explained.

“Worthy of being a Third-grade Alchemist, you’re quite knowledgeable about the Bingpo Snow Lotus,” Feng Wuchen praised.

“You flatter me, Alchemist Emperor. This little ability of mine is nothing,” Han Family Head modestly replied with a smile, not daring to show off in front of the Alchemist Emperor. He didn’t have the qualifications to do so.

“Alchemist Emperor, may I ask what you need the Bingpo Snow Lotus for?” Liu Family Head asked curiously.

“An object of extreme cold can counteract one of extreme heat. When combined, they can be tempered, making them more mild. Used in cultivation, the effect is immense,” Feng Wuchen said with a light smile.

In the deepest part of the ice cellar, within a room of several dozen square meters, there were eighteen ice crystal plants. These were the Bingpo Snow Lotus.

The Bingpo Snow Lotus, as the name implies, had snow-white petals like ice, shining with luster, extremely beautiful.

The Bingpo Snow Lotus was exceptionally rare and precious, containing vast, pure Ice Attribute energy, equivalent to a Fifth-grade elixir for cultivators of the Ice Attribute!

“Alchemist Emperor, it took eight years to grow these eighteen Bingpo Snow Lotus plants. They are vastly inferior to genuine Bingpo Snow Lotus and contain Ice Attribute True Yuan that is not very strong,” Han Family Head reported truthfully.

“No matter, any extremely cold medicinal herb will do,” Feng Wuchen waved his hand dismissively.

Looking towards Liu Qingyang, Feng Wuchen smiled and said, “Qingyang, haven’t you always complained about your slow cultivation speed? Do you want to try a terrifying rate of cultivation?”

“A terrifying rate of cultivation?” Liu Qingyang’s eyes lit up, and he was incredibly excited.

Feng Wuchen raised his right index finger and said with a mysterious smile, “Breakthrough of one realm layer in half a month!”

Breakthrough of one realm layer in half a month!

Those nine words immediately stunned everyone present.
