Family Rise by Daily Intelligence-Chapter 472 - 234: Fortunes Bestowed, Avatar’s Foundation Establishment, Yinan Tribe (2)
Fu Changsheng shook his head.
He was about to split the Thousand-Year Spirit Milk into two.
Liuu Meizhen saw this and hurriedly said:
"Husband, just one drop for me is enough. With my current cultivation realm, one drop, after being diluted, can be used six times. The Beast Tide is approaching, and there are those in the clan who need this more than I do."
Hearing this, Fu Changsheng nodded and said:
"Meizhen, you’re right. This Thousand-Year Spirit Milk has come at the right time. I will give the main array master of each defended territory two drops."
After all,
protecting the Mountain Protection Array requires a large supply of mana.
In this way,
with ten drops of Thousand-Year Spirit Milk,
Fu Changsheng would have only three drops left in his hands.
As soon as he finished speaking,
a familiar mechanical voice echoed in his mind:
"Ding"
"You have gifted precious Thousand-Year Spirit Milk to your clan members, receiving 660 Contribution Points."
Immediately after,
the clan panel’s contribution points shot up to three thousand.
Fu Changsheng was overjoyed.
The value of this Thousand-Year Spirit Milk was even higher than he had expected, and the system directly awarded nearly seven hundred Contribution Points.
Fu Changsheng also handed over the Blood Replenishing Grass from the Beast Nest to Liuu Meizhen.
The Blood Replenishing Grass is the main ingredient for refining the Blood Recovery Pill.
The Blood Recovery Pill is a Tier Two Late Stage Spirit Pill, and cultivators whose meridians are severely damaged have more than a fifty percent chance of healing broken meridians by taking this pill immediately.
It’s a hot commodity when the Beast Tide breaks out.
After leaving the study,
Fu Changsheng immediately called Yu Qingru over:
"Qingru, now that your Yu Family has the conditions to rise to a Ninth-Grade Noble Family, it’s time to visit the World Suppression Bureau."
Yu Qingru was a bit hesitant.
She said:
"Changsheng, this is precisely when the Beast Tide is erupting. Even if the Court grants us a fief, I’m afraid with our Yu Family’s current strength, we can’t defend it."
So,
Yu Qingru wanted to wait until after the Beast Tide to proceed.
Fu Changsheng shook his head:
"According to intelligence I’ve gathered from the World Suppression Bureau, ever since the Court signed a peace agreement with the Eastern Wilderness Tribe, newly promoted Ninth-Grade Noble Families have had their grades elevated, but no fiefs have been granted. However, once you’re conferred by the Court and receive the Ninth-Grade Noble Family Jade Seal, your Yu Family will receive the Court’s fortune protection, providing additional security during the upcoming Beast Tide."
Of course,
Fu Changsheng also had his own motives.
If a Ninth-Grade Noble Family appeared within his fief, the Fu Family’s fortune would also multiply.
In addition,
the system would also reward clan Contribution Points.
It’s a perfect strategy.
Yu Qingru nodded upon hearing this.
"Then I’ll follow your lead, Changsheng. When shall we depart?"
"There’s no time like the present. Today. While Master Xu is still at the World Suppression Bureau."
"Alright."
To get to Wanning Marketplace as quickly as possible,
Fu Changsheng made a special trip to Pingshan County to retrieve the Cyan Python, traveling day and night without rest. After several days, they finally arrived at Wanning Marketplace.
Fu Changsheng stood outside the city gate.
The marketplace that was once bustling and prosperous was now shrouded in a repressive atmosphere.
The stones on the city walls still bore the marks of the Insect Tide’s assault, with deep scratches in some places left by the sharp claws of giant Insect Generals.
At the entrance of the marketplace, teams of cultivators were solemnly inspecting those entering.
Their gaze was as sharp as lightning, with artifacts in their hands emitting a faint Spirit Light, missing nothing suspicious. The surrounding air seemed to have solidified, with only the occasional buzzing of the artifact during inspection.
In the past, Fu Changsheng could enter and exit the marketplace just by showing his Ninth-Grade Token, without waiting in line. But now, this privilege was gone, and he had to queue for inspection just like everyone else.
Upon entering the marketplace,
he saw cultivators from the World Suppression Bureau patrolling everywhere. They were dressed in uniform garb, with stern expressions. They were constantly inspecting various shops and residences, ensuring there was no dangerous item or suspicious person present.
In the central square of the marketplace,
the World Suppression Bureau had set up a temporary command center.
A giant light curtain displayed the situation in every corner of the marketplace, with cultivators tensely analyzing various data, ready to respond to any potential crisis. They had also set up multiple Early Warning Arrays in the marketplace, which would immediately sound the alarm if any abnormal spiritual power fluctuation occurred.
The entire Wanning Marketplace, under the measures of the World Suppression Bureau, resembled a tightly locked cage—seemingly safe but filled with tension and unease, as if an even larger storm was about to sweep through.
Fu Changsheng couldn’t help but feel anxious as well.
When the two arrived at the marketplace, it was already night.
The staff of the World Suppression Bureau was off duty.
Fu Changsheng and Yu Qingru temporarily rested in the backyard of his shop.
After finishing serving a wave of customers, Fu Yongshang of the Ten Thousand Pills Pavilion quickly arrived at the backyard, his face proud and excited:
"Patriarch, the cultivator community in the marketplace is saying that thanks to your noble actions, disregarding your own safety to drive away the Insect Tide, our Ten Thousand Pills Pavilion’s business has become extremely booming. The dan supply in our pavilion these days is almost sold out, and many cultivators have left a large number of orders with us. Once we get through this wave, our pavilion is all set to make tens of thousands of Spirit Stones."
"More importantly,"
"from now on, our Ten Thousand Pills Pavilion’s reputation is firmly established."
"And it’s all thanks to you, Patriarch!"
This was indeed an unexpected delight.
Fu Changsheng asked a few questions about the marketplace’s defense situation during the previous Insect Tide outbreak.
Fu Yongshang thought for a moment and said:
"The Insect Tide seems to have only attacked once, but it was quickly dispersed by the experts from the World Suppression Bureau organizing the cultivators in the marketplace. After that, the Insect Tide did not come again."
