Qingcang Immortal Clan: Starting with Farming to Increase Luck

However, Yan Yuehu cannot simply wipe out the Lu family just because the Fang family has pledged allegiance.

After all, everyone has some background when they're out in the world. The Lu family's patriarch came from the Qingyun Sect and even shed blood for it. Since then, the family has maintained a close relationship with the sect, sending several disciples to the Qingyun Sect for cultivation in almost every generation.

Over the years, the Lu family has amassed considerable influence within the Qingyun Sect.

If the Hidden Moon Lake dares to make a direct move, it's hard to guarantee that the Azure Cloud Sect won't step in to help the Lu family. After all, the Hidden Moon Lake is just a Golden Core force, how dare it provoke the Azure Cloud Sect, which is a Nascent Soul force and a behemoth in Tiannan.

So the Fang family and Yanyue Lake discussed it and chose a compromise: a literary contest.

As for how the literary contest would proceed, it was actually quite simple: the Fang family would select three younger members to engage in a battle against the Lu family.

The stakes were the land of three counties.

If the Fang family wins a match, the Lu family will return a county. Of course, the Lu family already occupies three counties, so even if the Moonlit Lake intervenes, they will not suffer any losses.

So if the Fang family loses, they'll have to come up with something to compensate.

In one county, there is one low-grade spiritual weapon and one first-tier spirit stone mine.

These are the stakes offered by the Fang family, and they are indeed tempting. These three things are things that the Lu family cannot refuse. Of course, most importantly, the Lu family is confident enough in itself.

It's just gambling. It's just three counties that we've occupied for so long, and we've already looted most of them. At worst, we can just return them.

Moreover, there's a high probability that they won't lose.

Since the Fang family is willing to continue sending things over, the Lu family will naturally not refuse.

Huang, who was at the Foundation Establishment stage of the Hidden Moon Lake, naturally had no objections. He was simply accompanying the Fang family on this trip. As the ancestor had said, he was just there to make a show of things and not to do or say anything unnecessary. He was just to ensure that the Fang family, despite their disadvantaged position, received fairness. That was enough, and he would be worthy of what the Fang family had given him.

This is all within the rules, and even the Qingyun Sect can't say anything about it.

After all, it's a good appearance, and the Lu family agreed.

Fang Chuhong, who had just reached the Foundation Establishment stage, looked at the Lu family members standing in the martial arts arena with a truly unpleasant expression. He didn't know when it started, but the Fang family's strength had fallen far behind that of the Lu family.

I thought it was just that the top combat power was lagging behind, but seeing it today, it's not just the top combat power, but even in the development of the Qi Refining stage, the Fang family is far behind the Lu family.

However, since the Fang family dared to propose such a competition, they must be confident of victory.

Hmph, as long as we take back the three counties and open the secret realm, the Fang family will definitely be able to achieve a leap in power. At that time, not to mention the Lu family, even the entire Tiannan region should have a place for the Fang family.

Thinking of this, Fang Chuhong became spirited again.

After receiving a signal from Fang Chuhong, a member of the Fang family slowly stepped out and stood on the training ground, his eyes full of fighting spirit.

Unlike the Lu family members, Fang Zixu knew that he carried the weight of a first-tier spirit stone mine on his shoulders, and he had to win.

Fang Zixu's gaze swept over the Lu family members. As long as they won this battle, their Fang family could take back a county town. As for losing, it was absolutely impossible for them to lose. He was at the ninth level of Qi Refining, just one step away from breaking through to the tenth level. He was skilled in various techniques. The Fang family had come prepared, providing him with top-grade magic weapons, pills, and talismans. With their strategy against the unsuspecting, how could they possibly lose?

"Fang Zixu of the Fang family requests guidance from fellow Daoists of the Lu family!"

They've come to cause trouble!

Before Fang Zixu spoke, the members of the Lu family had no idea what these people were there for. Now that they heard that the person's surname was Fang and that he spoke in such a way, they were immediately filled with righteous indignation.

Despite centuries of grudges, he still dares to be so arrogant, especially on their Lu family's territory. Many clansmen look at Fang Zixu as if he were already dead.

Lu Changfeng glanced at Fang Zixu, understood the situation, looked down at the hundred or so clansmen below, and with a flick of his index finger, a figure was pulled up directly.

"Brother Zhe, beat him to a pulp!"

"Go for it, Zhe-ge!"

……

Lu Yunzhe was also a little confused. How did he end up on stage while watching?

Hearing the shouts of his people below, he felt even more helpless; he was not good at fighting.

Lu Yunzhe looked at his second ancestor. He could tell that Fang Zixu had the cultivation level of the ninth level of Qi Refining. He dared to stand up, so his skills must be extraordinary. But why pick him out? The Lu family has quite a few experts in the late stage of Qi Refining.

There are three or four people more famous than him. He is usually low-key, so how did he get targeted by his own second ancestor?

"The Fang family is here to take back the county seat. If you lose, we'll have to return the county seat we've occupied to them."

Lu Yunzhe listened to Lu Changfeng's telepathic message and suddenly realized what was going on. It was just a county town, so he could just return it. They had already searched and looted it almost completely anyway. Besides, those few skilled players shouldn't be able to lose.

Upon seeing Lu Yunzhe's expression, Lu Changfeng knew what he was thinking. His lips twitched, and he continued to transmit his voice, "If you win, the Fang family will give us a spirit stone mine, and we will give you ten percent of that."

what!

A 10% spirit stone vein! Even a first-tier spirit stone vein is worth a lot of spirit stones.

Thinking of this, Lu Yunzhe's eyes lit up. With a Qingcang magic sword in hand, he waved to Fang Zixu, "Second Ancestor, rest assured, this concerns the honor of the family, and Yunzhe will not shirk his duty."

What kind of child is that!

The Second Ancestor couldn't bear to look at Lu Yunzhe; he was greedy for money and wouldn't act unless he saw a profit. He wondered who Lu Yunzhe had taken after.

However, if they want to defeat Fang Zixu, Lu Yunzhe really has to take action. After all, the Fang family is coming on strong, while the Lu family has lost the initiative.

In battles during the Qi Refining stage, magical artifacts and talismans are highly valued, and Lu Changfeng didn't believe that Fang Zixu hadn't prepared these things on him.

Fang Zixu looked at Lu Yunzhe, a big question mark forming in his mind.

The Fang family came prepared, and naturally paid attention to the Qi Refining Ninth Level cultivators of the Lu family. Before they came, Fang Chuhong had given him a detailed explanation of how to deal with these outstanding Qi Refining Ninth Level cultivators of the Lu family. After all, in Fang Chuhong's opinion, if the Lu family were to choose someone, they would most likely pick from these people.

However, they couldn't explain them all, so they chose three to talk about, and Lu Yunzhe was not among these three.

What does that mean?

The Lu family looks down on him, so they won't even send out their strongest clansmen to fight him?

Thinking of this, Fang Zixu couldn't help but feel a surge of anger. After all, he was now representing the Fang family. To look down on him was to look down on the Fang family as well. The Lu family was truly going too far.

Since that's the case, then don't blame him for being ruthless.

"Please grant it to me."

Fang Zixu cupped his hands in greeting, ready to begin. He could no longer contain his anger. But before he could land his third strike, a dark shadow crashed down.

Below the training ground, Lu Yang watched this scene and couldn't help but be impressed. As expected of the expert chosen by the Second Ancestor, the timing of his attack was perfect!

Lu Yang pulled a fellow clansman who was covering his eyes with his hands and asked in a low voice, "Brother, which branch does this Uncle Yun Zhe belong to? How come I've never heard of him before?"
