Chapter 67: Flower Moon Kingdom, Xu Family
In the following days, the people who had given IOUs in the Dark Star Forest gradually arrived at the White Cloud Peak. Su Zhan accepted their treasures and sent them away.
In the cave mansion of Peak Seventeen.
Su Zhan finished his cultivation. At this point, his cultivation had reached the peak of the Martial Master realm. Without a breakthrough, his true qi couldn't grow any further.
"The Origin Elixir Realm It's a top-level strength among the fifteen kingdoms in the Eastern Territory! However, condensing the Origin Elixir is very difficult. Of course, it shouldn't be too difficult under the influence of the Cultivation Halo. But if I want to condense a stronger Origin Elixir and gain greater combat power after breaking through the Origin Elixir Realm, I still need to make adequate preparations!"
Su Zhan murmured, various thoughts about condensing the Origin Elixir appearing in his mind. Suddenly, his eyes brightened.
"I almost forgot that Hua Yiyi still owes me one opportunity to use the Sacred Pool. Hmm, there seems to be something else?"
Su Zhan waved his hand, and an IOU appeared. This was the last IOU remaining in his possession. The Xu family in the Flower Moon Country. If they haven't come yet, they probably want to default on the debt. Of course, it's also possible that they forgot.
It just so happens to be on the way, so he can deal with it together!
A faint smile appeared on Su Zhan's face as he walked out of the cave.
"Hello, Senior Brother Su!" At the entrance, Wang Hao held a water bottle and greeted Su Zhan with a smile.
Su Zhan glanced in that direction and couldn't help but feel speechless. This guy not only cleared away the weeds but also planted flowers
But since I probably won't be back for a while, having someone take care of the entrance weeds isn't a bad thing. Thinking this way, Su Zhan nodded and casually took out a piece of junk he had obtained from some unfortunate fellow in the Dark Star Forest who had died, and tossed it to Wang Hao.
"Do a good job. I like sunflowers, and you can also snack on some melon seeds when you have free time."
"Yes, Senior Brother Su!" Wang Hao was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.
As he watched Su Zhan walk away, he carefully examined the item in his hand. It was a sword. Wind attribute. Grade: Mid-grade Profound Artifact!
Oh my god! Wang Hao was stunned.
Even though true disciples enjoyed generous treatment, it didn't mean they could casually obtain a Profound Artifact. After all, a Profound Artifact was on the same level as a Earth-rank technique, not to mention it was a mid-grade Profound Artifact! Even Wang Hao's own sword was only a low-grade Spiritual Artifact that he had saved up spirit stones for a long time to purchase!
"Truly worthy of being Senior Brother Su. He's so generous!" Wang Hao was overjoyed. After playing with it for a while, he was already thinking about where in the Xia Kingdom he could find the best variety of sunflowers.
One day later, Su Zhan arrived at the Flower Moon Country.
After inquiring about the location of the Xu family, his eyebrows slightly furrowed.
According to the information he obtained, the Xu family was quite secretive, with many branches. These branches also claimed to be part of the Xu family, making it extremely difficult for ordinary people to distinguish the true headquarters of the Xu family. It would be challenging to directly find the young master of the Xu family who had given the IOU.
However, the Xu family would go to the Lu Terrace Mountain every year for ancestral worship, and the date seemed to be tomorrow?
By then, it should be possible to successfully collect the debt, right?
With this thought in mind, Su Zhan's eyebrows relaxed, and he began heading towards Lu Terrace Mountain.
As the largest family in the Flower Moon Country, the headquarters of the Xu family is magnificent. It spans nearly a hundred miles, relying on a mountain range!
At this moment.
Inside the headquarters of the Xu family, in a luxurious building.
Xu Molong, the head of the Xu family, sensed the footsteps behind him and frowned.
"Dad, I've been thinking for a long time these past few days, and I think, why don't we give something to Su Zhan as a gift! It doesn't have to be a precious treasure, just a decent spiritual herb or something similar!" A fearful voice sounded from behind.
Xu Molong snorted, "Useless! How did you become so weak after going to the Dark Star Forest!?"
Turning around, his gaze fell upon Xu Yao, the somewhat timid young master of the Xu family. Xu Molong said in annoyance, "Look at yourself! Do you still have the demeanor of a young master of the Xu family?"
Xu Yao had a mournful expression on his face. "Dad, you don't know. Su Zhan is really strong. We should just leave him alone!"
"Strong?"
Xu Molong sneered. "That may be true for you. No matter how strong he is, he's just at the peak of the Martial Master realm. Our Xu family is the largest clan in the Flower Moon Country. It's a shame that you were coerced into issuing an IOU. If we respectfully send him something, won't our Xu family become a laughingstock?"
"But Dad, haven't you thought about what realm Su Zhan's talent might reach in the future?"
Xu Yao said, "Our Xu family is not lacking in one or two treasures. Why should we become enemies with a potential limitless genius? It doesn't make sense!"
"Limitless potential"
Xu Molong shook his head. "Geniuses are still geniuses. Only those who don't perish can become strong!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Yao's pupils contracted, and he exclaimed, "Dad, are you planning to kill Su Zhan?"
"Not me, it's the hostile forces of the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect."
Xu Molong said lightly, "I also happened to receive this information. Those people are planning to deal with the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect. If nothing unexpected happens, the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect will be destroyed within a month, and Su Zhan will die!"
"Since he is about to die, why should our Xu family worry about these matters?"
"But"
A thought crossed Xu Yao's mind. "If we inform Su Zhan about this information, wouldn't we be befriending a potentially limitless genius?"
"A potentially limitless genius" Xu Molong pondered for a moment but ultimately shook his head.
"The Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect is a significant power in the Xia Kingdom and poses a great threat to us. Moreover, if we really did that, the combined forces of those powers would likely annihilate our Xu family!"
"It's better to watch from the sidelines. If there are benefits to be gained, we'll take advantage of them. If not, we won't lose anything!"
"Dad, I just feel like this isn't right"
"Enough, let's not discuss it anymore!" Xu Molong impatiently waved his hand. "Go rest early. Tomorrow is the ancestral worship ceremony, and as the young master, you must have a perfect appearance!"
"Yes."
Xu Yao left helplessly.
The next day.
Lu Terrace Mountain.
Hundreds of core members of the Xu family gathered in the central square of Lu Terrace Mountain. Xu Molong arrived at the central altar and glanced at the people before saying, "Everyone, our ancestor is in seclusion, cultivating a powerful martial art. He has said that if he doesn't arrive on time, there's no need to wait for him!"
"In that case, I will begin reciting the ritual text. The ceremony beginsWho are you?"
Before he could finish speaking, Xu Molong saw a figure riding a sword approaching and landing on the square, "Are you the head of the Xu family?"
Su Zhan revealed a slight smile and presented a promissory note. "I am Su Zhan. It just so happens that your son owes me something. Tell him to come out and settle the debt!"
This statement was like a stone thrown into calm water, causing a great commotion.
"Su Zhan? That name sounds familiar!"
"The young master owes him something? How is that possible? What does the young master not have?"
"Is this person crazy? He's causing trouble at our Xu family's ceremonial event. Does he want to die?"
"Regardless of the reason, daring to come and cause trouble at this time, he deserves to die!"
The elders and disciples of the Xu family became angry one by one.
Xu Molong revealed a slight smile. Instead of looking at Su Zhan, he turned his gaze to Xu Yao.
"Yao'er, you are so afraid of him, it seems you have been intimidated by his strength."
"Today, as your father, I will let you see that Su Zhan, whom you fear, is nothing before a true powerhouse!"
"I will use our Xu family's renowned sword technique, the Shanhai Sword Art, to kill this person before your eyes!"
"Watch closely and learn!"
