Chapter 179 - 179: The Ancestor of the You Family 2
Moreover, they have already handed over all the cultivation techniques, divine powers, inheritances, and even information about the Level 3 spiritual vein to us.
If I’m still being stingy, then what’s the difference between me and the previous ancestor of the Zhang family as well as Zhang Baishan of the Zhang family in Flat Land County?”
As he spoke, Jiang Chengxuan took out a fist-sized silver stone from his body.
There were lightning runes flowing on the surface of the silver stone.
“This is?”
Seeing the silver stone, Shen Ruyan was slightly shocked.
Jiang Chengxuan said, “That’s right. This is a Lightning Essence Stone. I found it in Bai Xuanhong’s storage ring. It should be helpful to you.”
“You are right. This Lightning Essence Stone is indeed helpful for my future cultivation.”
Shen Ruyan didn’t stand on ceremony with her Dao companion and accepted the stone.
Then, Jiang Chengxuan took out the jade slip with the Withered Tree Nirvana Technique and handed it to Shen Ruyan.
After Shen Ruyan examined it, she said that this secret technique indeed had its unique aspects, but it was not especially compatible with what she cultivated.
Just like that, the couple continued on the topic of cultivation.
About a few days later.
Jiang Chengxuan helped Shen Ruyan set up a Level 3 Mountain-protecting Array in the Jiang family’s territory.
After doing this, the couple returned to their respective cave abodes on Xuanming Peak and began to cultivate in seclusion.
This was the first time they had some peaceful time since they left the Shen family.
The couple was very clear about what they were going to do.
Jiang Chengxuan wanted to refine the Dharma treasures he had obtained before and along the way.
For example, the dark golden iron rod or the defensive Dharma treasure he had obtained from the Level 3 Giant Gale Crocodile, the Six Directions Pegoda.
Then, if there was still time, he wanted to use the Azure Dragon Wood Crystal he had obtained previously to see if he could increase the power of his divine power, the Azure Emperor’s Heaven-Slaying Saber.
At the same time, he wanted to cultivate the Withered Tree Nirvana Technique.
As for Shen Ruyan, she wanted to fuse the demon core of the Level 3 Cyan Lightning Wind Bird and the Lightning Essence Stone that Jiang Chengxuan had given her with her Five Lightning Immortal Slayer.
If possible, she might be able to use this opportunity to advance to the third level of the Violet Palace.
While Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were busy with their own matters, the disciples of the Jiang family also took this opportunity to work hard to improve themselves. The You family, the Heavenly Spring Sect, the Misty Cloud Pavilion in Qi’an County, and the various Violet Palace families and sects in the nearby counties all received invitations from the Jiang family.
There was only one message, and that was that the Jiang family wanted to hold a banquet in five years and invited everyone to it.
The various forces respected the Jiang family, which had almost fallen, but had risen again at the critical moment and destroyed the Origin Returning Sect effortlessly.
Some of them even promised that in five years, they would send their Supreme Elder to attend the banquet.
This included the You family in Qi’an County.
After Liu Linglong, who was in charge of sending the invitations, left the You family, the current head of the You family, You Changbai, immediately found his Violet Palace Ancestor, You Zhenfang, and told him about the matter with a slightly uneasy expression.
You Zhenfang was already more than 400 years old.
He looked rather old.
The reason he was not dead yet was because he had consumed a life-extending spiritual item in his early years.
At this moment, he looked at the family head, You Changbai, and said with an extremely serious expression,
“Changbai, tell me honestly, have you been targeting the Jiang family with the Origin Returning Sect all these years?”
“Ancestor, I…”
You Changbai paused for a moment before he suddenly knelt in front of You Zhenfang and cried.
“Ancestor, you really can’t blame me for this! I was beguiled by You Changyuan and his Dao companion.”
You Zhenfang’s expression suddenly turned cold.
He looked at You Changbai until You Changbai’s forehead was covered in cold sweat. Then, he said coldly,
“As the head of the family, not only did you not make the right decision for the family, but you even put the family in a dangerous situation.
Most importantly, when you know that you have made a mistake, you don’t take responsibility. Instead, you tried to push the blame to others.
If you continue to be the head of the You family, I’m afraid it won’t be long before the You family falls apart.”
Upon hearing this, You Changbai’s face turned pale.
Even his feet, which were kneeling on the ground, trembled.
Seeing this, You Zhenfang’s eyes flashed with disappointment again.
He shook his head slowly and said calmly,
“From today onwards, you will be removed from the position of the head of the You family. Go to the back mountain and reflect on yourself. Without my permission, you’re not allowed to take a step out of the back mountain.. Otherwise, you’ll be killed without mercy!”
