Ordinary People: Starting with the Chen Clan

After leaving Spirit Beast Mountain, Chen Xuanzhou had three bulging spirit beast pouches on his waist.

Inside were three giant iron-boned pigs. It wasn't that Chen Xuanzhou didn't want to take more at once, but the sect leader of the Spirit Beast Mountain still had some sense and insisted that he would only hand over three spirit beasts at most.

Even if we invoke Old Monster Qiong's name, it won't help. We can only obtain the spirit beast by waiting for him to hand over the talisman.

Chen Xuanzhou had no choice but to give up, and he didn't linger at Spirit Beast Mountain for long before heading straight for the Chen family of Hidden Moon.

Along the way, he did not rush to travel. Instead of flying at full speed, he concealed his aura and transformed into two minor cultivators at the seventh or eighth level of Qi Refining.

They traveled around sightseeing, stopping and browsing various markets and towns, showing off a little bit of their wealth.

Unsurprisingly, once they left the market, they were followed closely by a tail.

Chen Xuanzhou subtly led the group into the dense forest, where he had the Blood-Transforming Blade sharpened.

Looking at the three withered bodies on the ground, Chen Xuanzhou's face showed a hint of joy. This was indeed a fragment of a magic weapon. Even without unleashing its full power, it rendered the three people's protective measures useless.

Although the three were now just skin and bones, their slightly heaving chests proved that their current state was the same as their original clones.

Under the watchful eyes of the three men, Chen Xuanzhou stepped forward and looked them over.

"As expected of the magic blade that made me spend all my savings to repair it, this dry-wet separation technique is truly perfect! With proper care, it will still be a good pig."

Upon hearing this, the three cultivators, though they had already lost countless lives and were prepared to die a violent death one day, still felt a chill run through their remaining beating hearts.

Chen Xuanzhou ignored what the three people thought and with a wave of his hand, carefully placed three talismans on their foreheads.

I don’t know if it was just my imagination, but the talismans seemed to fall very gently.

Then he took out three spirit beast pouches and carefully put the beast into them.

After doing all this, Chen Xuanzhou headed full speed ahead towards the Chen family's new ancestral home in the territory of the Hidden Moon Sect.

When he flew over the spiritual vein, the sun was blazing overhead. Chen Xuanzhou's eyes flashed with spiritual light, but even with his current spiritual eyesight, he could not see through the formation.

This place was painstakingly set up by Xin Ruyin and her grandson, with several forbidden formations, including the Reversed Five Elements Formation.

Let alone him, even if an ordinary Core Formation cultivator came, they wouldn't be able to break through the formation.

Its formation strength is not much weaker than that of some sect strongholds.

I also thought I'd take this opportunity to teach Sun Yuan a little about cultivation techniques.

His lifespan is only a few years left. If he were to switch to cultivating the Blood Refining Divine Light and receive the help of the Foundation Establishment Pill, Chen Xuanzhou believed that there was still a 70-80% chance of him breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

The reason we didn't teach the technique to the other party at the beginning was mainly because we didn't have a demonic blade to assist us, so we had to rely on people as fuel.

Although the Hidden Moon Sect doesn't really care whether the cultivation methods they practice are righteous or evil, they can't go too far, especially since they just wiped out the Yue Emperor and his group under the guise of demonic cultivation.

But then he turned around and did the same thing himself. If people found out, it would be a bit hard to explain.

As the head of the Chen family, he still needs to maintain a certain level of prestige; otherwise, his business operations and marriage alliances with other independent cultivators or families will be affected to some extent.

That's why it wasn't rolled out immediately.

Now that we have the Demon Blade in hand, we have an excuse, and others have no reason to attack us.

"Master! Why didn't you inform us of your return beforehand? We could have been prepared..."

A soft exclamation came from the great formation below, and then the clouds and mist that shrouded the mountains churned, revealing a road about ten feet wide.

A young man dressed in a green robe, who looked to be in his twenties or thirties, but whose cultivation level was at the ninth level of Qi Refining, walked out from the central formation.

"I only came back temporarily because of some business. I also took the opportunity to come back and see what changes have happened in the family recently, and there are some arrangements that need to be made."

At this point, Chen Xuanzhou paused, his eyes scanning the other person several times before continuing.

"You're not bad, kid. You've built a very solid foundation over the years, and your fire-attribute magic power is not much weaker than that of an average Qi Refining Stage 12!"

This young man was none other than Chen Xuanhong, who had once served under Chen Xuanzhou for a period of time. Although he had not been under Chen Xuanzhou's tutelage for many years, he had not neglected his cultivation.

Hearing Chen Xuanzhou's praise, Chen Xuanhong's face flushed slightly, and she said with a trembling voice.

"Master! Master! Head of the family, you flatter me!"

"I owe my achievements to the generous guidance of the family head, who laid such a solid foundation for me!"

"Hehe, there's no need for that. I'm only offering some assistance; ultimately, it's up to you!"

Chen Xuanzhou smiled and waved his hand, showing no intention of taking credit. For him, the improvement of his family members' cultivation was the greatest reward!

"Let's go inside the tribe first and then talk..."

Seeing that the other party was still excited and wanted to chat for a while longer, Chen Xuanzhou finally couldn't help but interrupt.

Seeing that Chen Xuanzhou was still being blocked outside by his body, he realized what was happening and hurriedly said something.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Master, please come with me..."

As he spoke, he gestured with one hand, leading Chen Xuanzhou into the family compound.

"The patriarch hasn't been back for a long time, and the family has undergone some changes during this period, the first of which is the population."

In recent years, as the family rules of the head of the family have been gradually implemented, the number of newborns has been no less than three thousand. Among them, the children with spiritual roots will surely not disappoint the head of the family!

The second important thing is... is...

At this point, he suddenly became hesitant and his eyes darted around.

"What is it that you're hesitating about? Just say it directly, or I'll blame you!"

Chen Xuanzhou couldn't help but roll his eyes at the other person.

"Hehe, yes...yes...it concerns the three clan elders..."

Chen Xuanhong shrank back, uttered half a sentence, and then fell silent.

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuanzhou paused slightly, swallowed hard, and then spoke.

"Is the clan elder still in good health...?"

"Healthy! Healthy! Apart from being a little sleepy, there are no other problems!"

"That's good!"

Chen Xuanzhou nodded, his face expressionless.

He felt a little regretful that he had arrived too late. If he had known earlier that the three elders were nearing the end of their lives, he would have made sure they switched to cultivation earlier, even if it meant being stigmatized.

Give them more opportunities to build their foundation!

Even with the aid of the Demon Blade, Chen Xuanzhou is not entirely confident that his opponent can cultivate the Blood Refining Divine Light before his lifespan runs out, with his personal guidance.

Not to mention, it could be used to break through to the Foundation Establishment realm!

Unfortunately, he had not mastered the laws of time, so how could he possibly possess the "If Only I Had Known" supernatural power?
