Looking in the direction of Emperor City.

Fang Yu was just about to return.

Then he saw Zhang Xiaoya flying towards him at a meteoric speed.

"Mr. Fang, as per your instructions, I've already notified the Xue Family. They will personally come to apologize early tomorrow morning."

"Very good."

Fang Yu flew towards Emperor City.

Zhang Xiaoya followed closely behind.

...

About ten minutes after the two had flown away from the cemetery.

The powerful cultivators from the Xue Family's Great Heavenly Position had all arrived at the cemetery.

They landed at the entrance to the cemetery.

The tomb guardian began to cry and complain.

After all, it was cultivators breaking in, what could he, a superpower user, do to stop them?

The people of the Xue Family didn't intend to argue with the tomb guardian, they just asked, "Where are they?"

"They should still be inside... I don't know anything else! They... they can fly, they are cultivators!"

Being able to fly meant they could leave the cemetery anytime directly.

The leader of the Xue Family was not Xue Feng, but Xue Ren.

"Go inside and take a look."

"Hmm, big brother... don't let that thief get away!"

Swish, swish, swish.

The group quickly rushed in.

Before long, they arrived at the jungle cemetery.

It didn't take a careful look—once they saw their ancestral graves turned into flat ground, how did that make them feel?

The disciples of the Xue Family immediately started cursing.

Extremely angry.

The Xue Family always valued appearances, and they were particular about the grandeur of the tombstones and grave sites they built for their ancestors.

But now, where were the ancestral graves? Just bare ground, with only a small tombstone standing there.

Wait a second.

A small tombstone?

Xue Ren raised his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet.

He took out his phone for lighting.

On that tombstone, they saw blurry writing, mottled and faded, as if it had been buried underground for a long time.

Yet, it seemed to have been cleaned by someone.

Faintly visible on it was the tomb of someone named Lu something Tianxing.

The second character was mostly corroded and the writing could not be seen.

"Whose tombstone is this, and why is it in our ancestor's graveyard?"

"This is outrageous! It's simply courting death!"

"Dig it up!"

"Yes, dig it up! And find the person who disturbed the ancestor's grave, and make him pay with his life! I'll use his blood to sacrifice to the ancestor!"

"Wow, looking at it, they must see this as a feng shui treasure land, and wanted to move their grave here. They've got the guts, daring to meddle with even the Xue Family's territory!"

"The Wang Family and Fan Family are not any better. The entire area within a hundred meters has been leveled. This guy is really greedy, wanting to occupy the whole place!"

Bang!

Xue Ren clapped his hands, sending the tombstone flying away.

In an instant, the tombstone broke into two halves.

The ground's soil loosened, gray dust splattering everywhere.

Fury filled Xue Ren's eyes as he said in a deep voice, "No matter who did it, moving an ancestor's grave is akin to killing one's parents. Everyone, spread out and search! Even if we have to dig three feet deep, we must find him!"

"Yes!"

The Xue Family cultivators began to scatter and search all around.

The news of the ancestral grave being disturbed had long spread to the Wang Family and Fan Family.

The two family heads, thunderously angry, also dispatched their respective cultivators to search all over the place.

Unfortunately!

No matter how they searched, they couldn't find the person who dug up the grave.

They were also quite baffled. How could a cultivator, so powerful, leave no trace at all?

After searching through the northern jungle area throughout the night, they still couldn't find anyone.

Xue Ren even cleaned up the burial items of the ancestors and found that nothing had been taken, which made him even more puzzled.

This indicated that the person who dug up the grave wasn't motivated by greed.

So what was the motive?

The Xue Family disciples couldn't figure it out, so they had to withdraw and report the situation to Xue Feng.

Xue Feng, knowing that the grave robber hadn't been caught, wasn't angry. Instead, he ordered everyone to continue investigating, convinced they could find some clue.

Xue Ren discovered that tombstone of someone surnamed Lu with something Tianxing on it, which was a very important clue.

After all, the number of tombstones built there in history could be counted on one hand.

But there were more urgent matters to attend to now...

Such as apologizing to Emperor Yu.

Thus.

Xue Feng commanded the Xue Family disciples to set off together tomorrow to head to Tan Mansion.

The Wang Family and Fan Family were to go together.

...

Early the next morning.

At Tan Mansion.

Fang Yu intended to casually find a place to stay.

But as he needed to deal with his father's grave issue, he stayed the night.

As soon as he woke up,

he heard Zhang Xiaoya's voice outside the door——

"Mr. Fang, are you awake? Master sent me to assist you in getting up."

Uh.

Is it necessary to be assisted in getting up?

Fang Yu felt a bit embarrassed.

Having been independent since childhood, no matter how many years have passed, this kind of being waited on felt a bit awkward to him.

"You can leave, I don't need any assistance." Fang Yu declined.

"Mr. Fang..."

Fang Yu had already gotten out of bed.

The door opened.

He went to wash up on his own.

Zhang Xiaoya accompanied him all the way.

She truly didn't have the courage to command Fang Yu, so she just followed along, like a servant.

Once everything was prepared and after having breakfast, he went to the main hall to wait.

As soon as he sat down,

Zhang Xiaoya timidly said, "Master said... Mr. Fang can come and go anywhere freely, as you wish. If Xiaoya's hospitality has been inadequate, I will immediately go report to Master."

"No need, you can stay."

Being accompanied by a beauty is certainly more pleasant than having an old man by his side.

After all, he was a man.

These words, however, made Zhang Xiaoya secretly pleased.

She thought she had no charm at all.

"Mr. Fang... are you not ever served by anyone as the Emperor of Tiandu Mountain?" Zhang Xiaoya asked in a low voice.

"Of course, I am."

Fang Yu responded playfully, "At Tiandu Mountain, I have at least ten servants every day to help me brush my teeth and wash up, and they are all now at least Heavenly Human Immortal-level experts."

"Oh... so Xiaoya isn't qualified." Zhang Xiaoya felt a bit disappointed.

Even the servants were Heavenly Human Immortals.

That's quite the blow.

Fang Yu chuckled and said, "Where's that haughty arrogance you had before?"

"I..."

"No need to explain... When are the Xue Family, Wang Family, and Fan Family coming?" Fang Yu asked calmly.

Zhang Xiaoya glanced at the time on the wall and said:

"I only informed them to come early this morning! If nothing unexpected happens, they should arrive soon. Especially knowing that it's the Emperor Yu who's angry, they surely won't dare to delay!"

"Hmm."

As they spoke.

The butler's voice came from outside——

"The head of the Xue Family, leading disciples, comes to visit."

"The head of the Wang Family, leading disciples, comes to visit!"

"The head of the Fan Family, leading disciples, comes to visit!"

...

Outside the main gate.

The three family heads, accompanied by their respective family cultivator disciples, made a grand entrance.

They stood in neat rows, numbering a full hundred people.

No wonder they could establish themselves in Emperor City.

So many cultivators had formed a formidable force.

But no matter how powerful they were, they still had to show respect to Tan Mansion and the Emperor of Tiandu Mountain.

"Patriarch Xue, make sure you get it right, don't make a mistake... is it really Emperor Yu who wants us to come?"

"There can be no mistake, it was Mr. Tan's apprentice who personally delivered the message!"
