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

The next morning.

The sun peeked out early, its golden rays bathing the earth in vibrant light, creating a scene of life, birdsong, and fragrant flowers.

"Father!"

Ni Yonggui strode in with light steps. As soon as he stepped into the bamboo house, he shouted loudly, his voice clear and resonant, as if he wanted to wake up the whole house.

inside the house.

Ni Kun was sitting leisurely at the coffee table, savoring a steaming cup of fragrant tea.

Hearing Liu Zi's shouts.

"Come on, come on!"

Ni Kun's lips curled into a slight smile, and he waved enthusiastically, saying, "Please sit down! Have some morning tea!"

"Um!"

Ni Yonggui responded excitedly, his chubby body quickly walking over to Ni Kun's side and plopping down on the floor.

He first shifted his seat so that he was close to Ni Kun, then picked up the still steaming tea without hesitation and drank it all in one gulp.

Just as the father and son were enjoying this heartwarming moment.

"Tap tap!"

Another set of footsteps reached my ears.

Immediately afterwards, Ni Yongxiao's loud voice rang out: "Father!"

"Ah-Xiao!"

Ni Kun put down his teacup and greeted with a smile, "Come, come, sit down and try the freshly brewed tea your father just made!"

"Gurgle!"

After Ah-Xiao took a sip of tea, a refreshing and pleasant aroma slid down his throat, instantly invigorating him.

Then she raised her head and looked at her father with expectant eyes, like a general waiting for instructions.

"Ah Gui!"

Ni Kun smiled slightly, turned his gaze to Ni Yonggui beside him, and nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

"Okay!"

Ni Yonggui immediately understood, stood up with a grin, and then, with a flick of his wrist, countless dazzling rays of light shot out like lightning.

In the blink of an eye.

A pile of spirit stones, radiating an alluring luster, appeared before everyone's eyes as if they had sprung up after a spring rain.

These spirit stones are completely transparent, as pure and flawless as crystal, and each one sparkles with a powerful and captivating brilliance.

"suck!"

Ni Yongxiao couldn't help but gasp and stood up abruptly.

"Tap tap tap!"

Accompanied by a series of hurried footsteps.

He suddenly rushed to the pile of spirit stones and eagerly reached out his hands, grabbing a handful of crystal-clear spirit stones that emitted an alluring glow.

This moment.

Ni Yongxiao's eyes gleamed with excitement, and his voice trembled slightly as he spoke: "Sixth Brother, you...you...where did you get so many mid-grade spirit stones?!"

"Fourth Brother!"

Ni Yonggui chuckled, walked over to his side, picked up a spirit stone, played with it in his palm, and replied meaningfully, "Father! Fourth Brother! We were able to get all this this time...it's truly thanks to the Yue Kingdom's royal family!"

"The royal family?" Ni Kun murmured softly.

"Yes, Father!" Ni Yonggui chuckled, then with a flick of his wrist, he took out a well-sealed letter and handed it to Ni Yongxiao beside him.

"This is a letter from the Yue royal family to the head of the household!"

Ni Yongxiao knew that Ni Yonggui was causing trouble, so he gave Lao Liu a light glare.

Then his gaze fell on the two characters "Shangguan" written in a flamboyant style on the surface of the envelope.

Then he hurried towards Ni Kun and respectfully called out, "Father!"

After a while.

The three knew that the letter contained nothing but praise from the Shangguan royal family for the Ni family, and also mentioned that royal offspring would be visiting Hong Kong for a few days.

"Father!"

Ni Yonggui introduced with a grin: "This Shangguan royal family, apart from the hostages abroad, only Crown Prince Shangguan Taolue and Princess Shangguan Qingcheng remain at home!"

Shangguan Taolue, true to his name, is extremely intelligent and accomplished. Despite being the crown prince for many years, he enjoys the deep affection and trust of his father, the emperor.

Shangguan Qingcheng, just like her beautiful and charming name, is like a fairy descending to earth.

The youngest princess of the Shangguan royal family was renowned throughout the Yue Kingdom for her unparalleled beauty, and even people in distant foreign lands had heard of her.

"I wonder who the royal family will send?"

Ni Yonggui muttered to himself, resting his chin on his hand, as he fell into deep thought.

"It's probably the crown prince!"

Ni Yongxiao frowned slightly, muttering thoughtfully, "I've heard that the Crown Prince's family is located in the southern region!"

Ni Kun did not offer any opinion; he simply sat there quietly, listening to the brothers' discussion.

He knew very well:

Whenever a dynasty changes hands, many families rise to prominence, but at the same time, many more quietly disappear into the long river of history.

The royal family is simply a larger family.

The world today.

During this sensitive period of the rise of feudal lords, the royal family sending people to such a remote coastal county was definitely not just for a casual visit!

Is the royal family trying to leave themselves a way out, or are they playing a much bigger game?

He just hoped it wouldn't affect his plans.

Just as Ni Kun was lost in thought.

"Father!"

The usually jovial Ni Yonggui suddenly became serious and solemn. He lowered his voice and said, "This time, when I went to the capital, I learned quite a bit of information!"

He paused briefly before continuing, "The situation in Yue is very complex right now, and the Shangguan royal family is in a very delicate position, especially the powerful families in the capital, who live in constant fear and anxiety!"

Yes, the Haoyue Sect, which supports the Yue Kingdom's royal family, controls the northern region of Yue.

Since the mysterious disappearance of its sect leader Haotian, the entire sect has been in turmoil, with various factions secretly vying for power, while outside the sect, powerful enemies and wolves are all around.

That is precisely why.

The powerful clans in southern Yue were like a group of sharks smelling blood, unable to suppress their restlessness and ambition. They were constantly mobilizing troops and gathering forces to prepare for their next move.

At this time, the Shangguan royal family, located in the central part of the Yue Kingdom, had already keenly sensed the increasingly strong smell of gunpowder.

The thought of an impending war is unbearable.

After assessing the situation, Ni Kun made a decision immediately.

He quickly pulled out a map with detailed topographical markings, lightly tapping the newly constructed port city on it with his fingertip. His expression was solemn and serious as he spoke, "Ah Xiao, immediately arrange for people to further expand and extend the area south of the port city, all the way into the border sea!"

Without a doubt, this was Ni Kun's solution for the worst-case scenario—extending the city wall to the boundary sea opened a survival channel for all the mortals in the city.

"Ah Xiao! It's time to build a fortress for the Ni family's advance into Black Mountain!"

As Ni Kun spoke, he took out another fortification map that he had prepared beforehand and slowly unfolded it.

The map was densely marked with information such as terrain features and key strongholds.

Ni Kun stretched out his finger and instantly pointed it at the location of the temporary military camp. Finally, he slightly raised his arm and moved his fingertip forward a little, placing it just outside the mouth of the gourd.

Indeed, that's why Ni Kun chose to build the Black Mountain Fortress in this open area outside the narrow and dangerous pass between the two peaks.

On the surface, it seems to be to strengthen defenses against the Demonic Sect, but in reality, it has a deeper meaning—what really needs to be strictly guarded against is the domestic turmoil that may occur at any time.

"despair!"

He pointed forcefully and solemnly emphasized, "The fortress is divided into inner and outer cities!"

As Ni Kun spoke, he drew a square: "This ring is the outer city, capable of accommodating tens of thousands of troops, and will serve as a solid barrier to protect the inner city!"

Then he drew an even smaller inner city: "The inner city must be built to the level of a defensive fortress, and will be used as the daily residence of our Ni family members. We must ensure the absolute safety of the Ni family members!"

That brings us to this point.

Ni Kun paused briefly, then pointed to both sides of the fortress, his expression serious and resolute as he instructed, "Remember, no matter what, you must ensure that the fortress's fortifications are systematically embedded into the nearby Black Mountain! Only in this way can we withstand any strong attacks the enemy might launch!"

After saying this...

Ni Kun patted Ni Yongxiao's shoulder lightly one last time, pointing with his chin to the pile of mid-grade spirit stones: "Ah Xiao, the intermediate teleportation array that I've mentioned many times before must be completed as soon as possible. This is a life-saving talisman for the Ni family's descendants, and a powerful weapon that will bring divine assistance to our Ni family members!"

Upon hearing this, Ni Yongxiao nodded without hesitation and replied, "Father is absolutely right. Our port city has a sufficient labor force, and the market generates a considerable daily income, which is enough to cover the expenses of these massive projects!"

After saying that, he and Ni Yonggui carried a full 10,000 mid-grade spirit stones and went down the mountain without stopping to handle the relevant matters.

"Gurgle!"

Ni Kun picked up the slightly cooled teacup on the table, tilted his head back, and drank it all in one gulp.

Then he slowly put down the cup, looked up and gazed into the distance, lost in thought.

It is clear that the rebellion of the feudal lords will come sooner than anyone expected.

The people of Yue may not have wanted to get involved in such a crazy thing, but when the world is in chaos, who can escape it?

However, Ni Kun was not worried at all.

He has a plan in mind, and his children are prepared.

"Land Rover!"

Ni Kun called Saber-toothed Tiger and they went down the mountain.
