The Mysterious Immortal Clan: Rising from the moment I died!

"Waaaaah..."

The members of the Ni family burst into tears, sobbing as they cried, "Ancestor! Ancestor said he will return!"

Ni Yongwen and the others murmured in trembling voices, "Father said he'd come back? Really? Waaah..."

Ni Yongxiang and the others murmured softly, "Father wants us to listen to him? Who is he? Is it Fourth Brother?"

At that very moment.

"Hurry up!"

The crimson bird in the clouds frantically flapped its wings against the crane, its heart filled with fear: "Run! You stupid bird, run!"

"snort!"

The woman's beautiful eyes flashed with cold light as she stared intently at the fleeing Chi Lian.

The thought of almost dying here, and the memory of that scoundrel's brazen gaze, fueled her rage: "You old lecher! Where do you think you're going?!"

Before he finished speaking, he was about to leap out and give chase.

However, just as she was about to set off...

Sudden.

"Swish swish swish..."

Dozens of agile figures darted down from the clouds like lightning.

These figures were shaped like sword beams and moved with incredible speed, like shooting stars streaking across the sky, leaving no time for anyone to react.

The man at the head of the group was particularly eye-catching.

His graceful figure, like an immortal descending to earth, was a sight to behold.

"Fellow Daoist Gu, don't panic, I'm here to help you!"

His voice, like a resounding bell, echoed throughout the heavens and earth.

"call out!"

With a simple gesture, his three-foot-long sword flashed across the sky like a streak of light.

In the blink of an eye, a crisp "crack" was heard, and the green blade sliced ​​the man and the crane into several pieces along with it.

"Go to hell!" The woman stomped her feet in anger, cursing, "You little bastards! Before the fight, you all cowered like turtles, but now that I'm done fighting, you show up... You're really good at stealing kills!"

After he finished cursing.

"Come back!" With a wave of her hand, the jade seal instantly shrank and flew back into her hand like an obedient bird.

Then, with a leap, he landed lightly on the plaza at the summit.

Feng Qingyue quickly stepped forward, clasped her hands in a respectful bow to the woman, and said gratefully, "Thank you for your help, Elder Gu!"

Then, he turned to the Ni family and introduced them: "This is Elder Gu Nianci of the Medicine King Peak of the Immortal Heaven Road Sect!"

"Huh!"

Upon hearing Feng Qingyue's introduction, Gu Nianci rubbed the goosebumps on her arms: "Stop, stop, stop! Forget about elders, I'm only twenty-two years old!"

Feng Qingyue rolled her eyes, her gaze sweeping lightly over the jade seal and pendant. She thought to herself, "An elder from Medicine King Peak possesses the treasures of the other two peaks—this is truly unbelievable! Strange indeed!"

Upon hearing this, the members of the Ni family all gasped in unison.

Becoming an elder of a top sect at the age of twenty-two is truly astonishing in terms of strength and talent.

Ni Kun, whose spirit was collapsing and about to return to the strange space, naturally heard these words. He couldn't help but feel a sense of longing for that extraordinary sect: "Perhaps my Ni family's descendants could consider..."

at the same time.

"Pfft pfft pfft..."

Accompanied by a series of rapid footsteps, dozens of figures quickly approached as soon as they landed.

The leader, with a warm smile, clasped his hands in a salute and said, "Elder Gu, how have you been?"

However, before he could finish speaking...

With a clang, a section of white blade suddenly appeared in Gu Nianci's three-foot-long sword, gleaming coldly.

A slight, enigmatic smile played on her lips as she replied, "This lady is perfectly fine. As for the others, well, I have no idea!"

Upon seeing this, the man was first taken aback, then burst into laughter.

Then, shifting his gaze, he clasped his hands in greeting and said, "Fellow Daoist Qingyue is here too!"

Feng Qingyue nodded slightly in response.

Then, in the blink of an eye, a memory crystal arced through the air and landed steadily in the man's hand. He announced loudly, "The four great families of Zhao, Qian, Sun, and Li have colluded with the Demonic Sect. The evidence is irrefutable. The Ni family has rendered a great service this time!"

He paused, then added, "The person you just killed was said to be an inner disciple of the Bright Moon Sect..."

He hadn't finished speaking.

Gu Nianci's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had discovered something interesting.

"Yes, that old lecher is no ordinary inner disciple. He has the Heavenly Mandate on his forehead, and he can effortlessly wield demonic cultivation techniques... tsk tsk tsk!"

Just as the man's expression changed drastically upon hearing this,

Thousands of miles away, in the border sea.

The raging waves rolled like frost and snow, trapping the gray-robed old man, who was standing in the void, within the chasm.

Suddenly, the life tablet worn by the old man on his chest shattered with a "crack".

"uh-huh!"

As if struck by a backlash, his breathing became disordered, and a metallic taste rose in his throat.

next moment.

"what!"

He was furious, and his moon-white aura shot straight up to the heavens like a pillar, causing the clouds to churn and thunder to rage.

Then, its bloodshot eyes turned crimson, and its entire body burst into blue flames. The demonic aura was like a monstrous wave, far surpassing the power of its illusory form.

His fury was so intense that the heavy waters of the Boundary Sea shattered like glass: "Who killed my son? Ni Kun! Ni Kun! I will annihilate your clan, your city, your kingdom..."

And at this moment, on the mountaintop.

"Thump!"

The leading man's heart sank, for after examining the memory crystal in his hand, he discovered that the matter was far more complex than he had imagined...

After a moment of silence.

As if making a decision, he turned to Gu Nianci and suggested, "Elder Gu, the matter of purging the demonic cultivators of Yue Kingdom is of great importance. Would you be interested in traveling to the provincial capital with me?"

However, Gu Nianci was using law enforcement as a pretext to go out and have fun, and she also had a strong prejudice against men, so she simply turned her face away and didn't want to talk to them at all.

Seeing that the other party ignored him, the man's expression grew even more unpleasant, but he did not give up. He turned his gaze to Feng Qingyue, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "Fellow Daoist Qingyue, would you like to come along?"

Feng Qingyue smiled slightly, clasped her hands in return, and said, "Thank you for your kind offer, but I need to stay and spend time with my family!"

As she spoke, Feng Qingyue's gaze pointed meaningfully at the Ni family members: "After this incident, the Half-Mountain Mansion needs to be renovated, so I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you all. Please forgive me!"

Seeing that Feng Qingyue politely refused, the man was somewhat disappointed, but he did not show it on his face.

He clasped his hands in a fist salute to the crowd and said loudly, "In that case, we will not disturb you any longer and will take our leave!"

After saying that, he turned and left with his group of people, quickly disappearing from everyone's sight.

"Phew!" Ni Yongxiao watched the law enforcement team walk away into the distance, and a huge weight was finally lifted from his heart.

Just then.

"Snapped!"

Gu Nianci suddenly punched Feng Qingyue in the back.

"I saved your lives, so what are you afraid of? Let's fight him head-on!"

"If that bastard doesn't know what's good for him, this old lady will just poke a few marks on him!"

As she spoke, she breathed hot air onto the jade seal several times.

"Senior Sister!"

Gu Nianci's voice was still echoing in the air when everyone's attention was drawn to three figures that suddenly appeared in the sky.

In the blink of an eye.

"Pfft!"

The three landed steadily on the ground and then quickly walked to Gu Nianci.

The two people walking at the front were the two cultivators who had accompanied Gu Nianci to Yong'an City to investigate the demonic cultivators.

The two women bowed respectfully, clasped their hands in greeting, and said in unison, "Senior Sister, we've found that young man!"

The two had barely finished speaking.

Everyone present turned their gaze to the boy behind them.

He had delicate features and a slender figure. He wore a slightly faded cloth robe, but he looked quite neat and clean.

This moment.

The boy felt nervous as he noticed everyone's gaze.

"suck!"

He took a deep breath, mustered his courage, took two steps forward, and bowed respectfully to Gu Nianci: "Thank you, Elder Gu and all the immortals, for saving my life!"

Gu Nianci smiled slightly, looked the young man up and down, and suddenly exclaimed as if she had discovered a new continent, "Not bad! Not bad, a promising seedling with a superior spiritual root!"

These words were like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, instantly creating ripples.

Ni Yongxiao's heart tightened suddenly. He quickly stepped forward, grabbed the boy's shoulders, and said excitedly, "Baby... I've been looking for you for so long!"

The boy was clearly surprised by Ni Yongxiao's enthusiasm, which seemed completely different from what he had heard!

"Home, head of the family, I, I, I..."

He was so flattered that he couldn't even speak properly for a moment.

"What do you mean, 'me'?!"

Ni Yongxiao interrupted the boy, emphasizing in an unusually warm tone, "From now on, you'll stay in this hillside mansion; you don't need to go anywhere else!"

Just then.

"Ahem!"

Ni Yongtang coughed twice and lowered his voice to remind him, "Fourth Brother, we can't let Elder Gu and the other guests stand here and talk forever!"

Upon hearing this,

Ni Yongxiao gave an awkward smile and quickly nodded emphatically, replying, "Ninth Sister is absolutely right!"

However, when the brother and sister's eyes swept around together, they both suddenly froze.

The entire summit was in a state of chaos, with ruins, broken bricks and tiles scattered all over the ground.

Apart from the ancestral hall, which is still relatively intact, almost everything else has been reduced to ruins.

"What should I do..." Ni Yongxiao muttered to himself, his face full of worry.

Just then.

"I'll do it!"

Feng Qingyue took a step forward and instantly appeared in front of Ni Yongxiao and his sister.

He smiled slightly, revealing a confident expression, and gave the two of them a reassuring look.

Immediately afterwards, Feng Qingyue gave a soft command: "Rise!"

With this soft shout, he quickly formed hand seals, and the powerful spiritual energy within his body surged forth like a mighty river.

In an instant, the entire peak was enveloped by a powerful spiritual force.

The houses that had collapsed and the broken bricks seemed to be held up by an invisible force, and they all floated up from the ground.

They hovered in the air, like dancing sprites, searching for their original place.

finally.

Under Feng Qingyue's skillful manipulation, the three destroyed building complexes rose up again on the mountaintop like scallions sprouting from the ground.

"Tsk tsk tsk!"

Upon witnessing this scene, Ni Yongxiao and the others were all stunned, and couldn't help but exclaim in unison, "Truly worthy of the Yuan Dan realm cultivation! Such supernatural power is truly breathtaking!"

A moment later.

"call!"

Feng Qingyue took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled, as if to expel all the stale air from her body.

after awhile.

His breathing gradually calmed, and finally he shook his head slightly, sighing, "Ah Jiu, with my current cultivation level, I cannot repair the thousands of cracks halfway up the mountain!"

Upon hearing this, Ni Yongtang smiled slightly and softly praised, "This is already very good!"

Just then.

"Ah-Xiao! Your father is alright!"

Ni Kun's extremely weak voice reached Ni Yongxiao's ears: "You and Ninth Sister stay with the guests for now, let Second Brother and the others handle the funeral arrangements..."

Ni Yongxiao's body trembled violently, his hands trembling with excitement, and he prayed incessantly, "Thank goodness! Thank goodness! Father is alright!"

He then led Gu Nianci and her entourage to the council hall.

After everyone took their seats, they began to chat while sipping tea.

On the other side...

Ni Yongwen and Ni Yongci, along with a group of Ni family members, began clearing away battlefield remains from the mountaintop to the foot of the mountain.

They carefully collected the bodies of their deceased clansmen and prepared to give them a proper burial.

What Ni Yongwen and his sister couldn't understand was that their fourth brother actually wanted them to piece together Chi Lian's corpse.

Yes, Ni Kun emphasized to Ni Yongxiao that the old lecher still had residual value—"Even corpses can be kidnapped!"

at the same time.

The Ni family members who had escaped via the teleportation array earlier breathed a sigh of relief upon receiving news that their clan was safe and sound.

As time went by, they gradually returned to their families.

For a time, the Ni family was bustling with activity and excitement.

As night falls, the lights are on.

Having recovered some of his strength through the strange ancient tree, Ni Kun once again sent a telepathic message to Ni Yongxiao, instructing him to open the storehouse, take out many precious ingredients, and order his servants to prepare all sorts of delicacies.

Yes, the more difficult the times for a family, the more important it is to understand human relationships and social customs!

A true man knows what to do and what not to do; his actions at this moment reveal his emotional intelligence!

As Ni Kun had predicted, the final result was just as he had expected—after an extremely lavish dinner, everyone was well-fed and satisfied, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves immensely.

Although Gu Nianci and the others had heard a lot of negative news about the Ni family in Yong'an City before they came here!

However, when they saw Ni Kun purify the demonic flames on Haotian's body all by himself, all their doubts vanished. In addition, the Ni family had just experienced a great battle and still treated the three of them with great hospitality.

At this moment, Gu Nianci and the other two, out of respect for both the monks and the Buddhas, greatly changed their impression of the Ni family, and their goodwill towards the members of the Ni family increased even more.

Seeing the subtle change in the attitudes of Gu Nianci and the other two, Ni Yongxiao knew that his father had once again proven his wisdom and prowess.

"call!"

He breathed a sigh of relief—the Ni family was finally off the enforcement team's blacklist...

Even Feng Qingyue couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The night was deep and all was quiet.

After a busy day, Ni Yongxiao finally got everything settled.

Before he could even rest for a moment, he led Ni Zhixin to the ancestral hall.

The shrine was solemn and dignified, with flickering candlelight and wisps of incense smoke.

Ni Zhixin knelt in the hall, raised the burning incense above his forehead, and said loudly, "Ancestor above, your unfilial son Ni Zhixin swears before this spirit that he will use his sincere heart to follow the family's teachings, enter the Dao to seek immortality, and dedicate himself to the cause. Now, I am entrusted by the family, and in the future, I will support the family and provide shade for future generations..."

Ni Zhixin's vow echoed within the ancestral hall, his voice resounding with determination and conviction.

After he finished offering incense.

Ni Yongxiao slowly walked to the table beside him and picked up a classic book with a gold cover—"A Treatise on Managing a Household."

He turned the pages of the book with a serious expression and explained the key points to Ni Zhixin one by one, especially emphasizing the part about cultivation subsidies three times.

Ni Zhixin was well aware that the family spared no effort in supporting the cultivation of its members, but at the same time, he hoped that every member of the family could understand that this support was not a given, but rather something that needed to be repaid with practical actions.

With this in mind, Ni Zhixin's expression became even more determined: "Patriarch, rest assured, I will definitely break through to the Perfection of Qi Refining within three years!"

A short while later.

Ni Zhixin's figure gradually disappeared into the night.

Ni Yongxiao kept his eyes fixed on the direction Ni Zhixin had left, his gaze filled with doting affection and anticipation for the future: "What a wonderful child! With a little more effort and resources, he's bound to achieve great things!"

At this point, his gaze turned directly towards the second building complex: "He and Ni Mingsi are both the hope of the Ni family. They will surely become the pillars of the Ni family in the future!"

Before he could finish speaking...

"Ah-Xiao!"

Ni Kun slowly revealed his more ethereal spirit form: "This child has good aptitude, but unfortunately, his personality is too gentle. Ni Mingsi, although less aptitude, has a strong personality!"

Standing to the side, Ni Yongxiao nodded vigorously, completely agreeing with Ni Kun's view: "Father! In order for the two of them to complement each other's personalities, encourage each other, and make progress together!"

He paused for a moment, then added, "Therefore, I deliberately arranged for the two of us to have rooms very close together, separated only by a side room!"

Ni Kun nodded and said in a deep voice, "In this great battle, although my Ni family fought against the four major families by relying on the effects of the terms, the price we paid was enormous!"

The implication is that high-end combat capabilities are the Ni family's biggest weakness at present.

"Father!"

Ni Yongxiao quickly and carefully took out three exquisite brocade boxes from his bosom and gently placed them on the table.

"These are the Foundation Establishment Pills that Ninth Sister brought back!"

"How would you like to arrange this?"
