Chapter 606: Chapter 268: The Celebration—Treasures Abound, Honored Guests Arrive

Clan Leader Wu felt fortunate when he saw the Liuu Family had presented the Three-Star Stone. He smiled broadly as he offered the incomplete manuscript:

"I have heard often of Clan Leader Fu’s remarkable talent in talisman making.

Unfortunately, due to the absence of a method for creating Tier Three Spirit Talismans, you have been unable to advance to a Tier Three Talisman Maker.

This manuscript records the first half of the method for crafting a ’Life Replacement Talisman’. I hope Clan Leader Fu can complete it and successfully create a full ’Life Replacement Talisman’."

As soon as these words were spoken.

Not only did Fu Changli, who was receiving the gift, become stunned.

Even people from the Hee and Liuu Families were awestruck, for it was indeed a Tier Three ’Life Replacement Talisman’. Though disposable, it could save one’s life in critical moments.

Everyone’s breathing turned rapid all at once.

They all looked towards the Fu Family members.

If Fu Changsheng managed to develop the complete ’Life Replacement Talisman’, it would undoubtedly add to the family’s foundation.

Clan Leader Hee secretly clicked his tongue:

’The two newly appointed Ninth-Grade Noble Families from Anyang County are indeed... one more willing to sacrifice than the other.’

Such a crafting method for a ’Life Replacement Talisman’ could completely be inherited as a family heirloom.

Though it’s incomplete now, if future generations have someone exceptionally gifted in talisman making to complete it, it would be an investment of a lifetime.

Clan Leader Wu saw the startled expressions of the crowd.

He felt pleased internally.

His relationship with the Fu Family was not bound by familial ties like the Liuu Family’s, and naturally, this was an opportunity to win over the Fu Family.

Firstly, to show gratitude for the Foundation Establishment Pill from years ago.

Secondly, should the Fu Family complete the ’Life Replacement Talisman’ crafting method, every time the Fu Family members use a ’Life Replacement Talisman’, they would recall this favor.

"The Ninth-Grade Wu Family gifts one scroll of the Tier Three Life Replacement Talisman crafting method!"

Fu Yongqi enthusiastically announced.

Fu Changli and others eagerly welcomed the three families into the Demon-Defying City.

Today’s banquet.

Was set in the Inner City of the Demon-Defying City.

Additionally, Fu Changsheng specifically instructed Yaoyao to activate the No-Fly Restriction of the Demon-Defying City, thus everyone had to walk from the Outer City to the Inner City.

The reason was simple.

Fu Changsheng wanted the attending Noble Families to witness the strength of the Demon-Defying City.

As of now.

The damage to the Demon-Defying City from the Beast Tide has been repaired.

However, the clan has cultivated a lineup of constructors and talisman array masters who are now idle, receiving substantial annual salaries yet facing the risk of their construction skills stagnating.

The Fu Family’s goal is not limited to South Huai Prefecture.

In the future.

They will construct even more formidable cities.

Therefore, constructors must practice continuously.

And the attending Noble Families are the targets.

Once they show the utility and might of the Demon-Defying City, surely some will be tempted to construct a similar city.

The Liuu and Wu Families were visiting the city for the first time.

Liuu Qingmin commented while exploring:

’Tsk, tsk, tsk, look at this foundation stone, this city wall; every inch engraved with talisman arrays, no wonder this Demon-Defying City can withstand the attacks of a Tier Three Demon King, tsk, tsk, tsk. If our family had such a city, why fear the Beast Tide or Southern Barbarians?’

Clan Leader Wu was equally envious as he looked on.

Nodding constantly:

’Yes, yes, but it must cost quite a few Spirit Stones to construct such a city.’

They are newly appointed Ninth-Grade Noble Families.

With insufficient foundation.

How could they afford so many Spirit Stones to construct a city?

Fu Yongshang, who was leading the way, heard this and chuckled:

’Clan Leader Wu, some Spirit Stones must be spent when needed.

Look at the Cao Family, they were frugal in daily life, yet when the Beast Tide came, a thousand-year legacy of their ancestors was lost overnight.

If they had constructed a Demon-Defying City like ours, such a tragedy would not have occurred.

If Spirit Stones are insufficient, then build a smaller city, for the Beast Tide comes once every century, and is swiftly upon us.’

These words.

Immediately tempted the Liuu and Wu Families.

They eagerly inquired about the number of Spirit Stones needed for constructing a city.

Fu Yongshang, with genuine sincerity on his face:

’Clan Leader Wu, Clan Leader Liuu, you are all our own people.

If it were outsiders, I naturally wouldn’t reveal such a secret.

Our Fu Family has a complete set of building plans and specialized constructors. The Cui, Qii, and Hongg Families also asked us to help build them a small city.

Guess how many Spirit Stones it took?’

’How many?!’

This was indeed the truth.

Clan Leader Wu and Clan Leader Liuu were immediately intrigued.

Fu Yongshang quickly transmitted his response. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Upon hearing.

Clan Leader Liuu and Clan Leader Wu exchanged glances.

With determination, they realized that if they tightened their belts, the entire clan could live frugally for a few years and muster enough Spirit Stones, as this would be a matter benefiting future generations.

Though they knew the Fu Family had deliberately set a bait.

Yet, they were willing to take it.

This sum of money should rightfully be earned by the Fu Family, and they wish for them to earn it happily.

Act quickly and seize the opportunity.

Liuu Qingmin instantly grabbed Fu Yongshang’s hand enthusiastically, speaking earnestly:

’Yongshang, before your Lady of the House headed to Jingzhou, she worried most about this old man, fearing that one day the Liuu Family’s lair would be taken over. Yongshang, your Lady of the House is working hard alone in Jingzhou and it’s tough, she shouldn’t be burdened by such worries.’

’You see.’

’Help us construct a small city for the Liuu Family, name your price for the Spirit Stones, we’re all family, I trust you.’

The Clan Leader Wu who was beaten to the punch cursed internally.
