Chapter 138: Trouble (1)

Dong! Thump! Dong!”
The melodious sound of a bell rang on the spiritual mountain of the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance.
It indicated that the celebration was about to begin.
Many Foundation Establishment cultivators gathered in the square in front of the main palace, chatting in groups of three to five.
Foundation Building cultivators usually cultivated in seclusion in their own clans, and the number of times they showed their faces was not as much as that of Qi Condensation cultivators.
Therefore, this celebration of the completion of Spirit Day City could be considered a rare gathering of Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
As a new Foundation Establishment family, the Chen family was not famous among the many Foundation Establishment families in Guang ‘an Prefecture. Therefore, no one took the initiative to talk to the two of them.
“Brother Chen!”
Just as he was thinking that no one was talking to him, a call came from behind him.
He turned around.
A young figure appeared in front of Chen Daoxuan.
This person looked to be in his twenties. He had peach blossom eyes and a frivolous smile on his lips.
Who else could it be but Zhou Mucheng’s son, Zhou Siliang?
“Brother Zhou!”
Chen Daoxuan immediately reacted and cupped his hands at Zhou Siliang to congratulate him,” Congratulations on your success in Foundation Establishment, Brother Zhou!”
“Haha, congratulations!”
Zhou Siliang’s success in building his foundation surprised Chen Daoxuan.
However, the last time he saw him, Zhou Siliang was already at the ninth qi layer. Now that he had successfully built his foundation, it was not too surprising.
Zhou Siliang greeted Chen Daoxuan and quickly greeted Chen Xianhe, “”Si Liang greets Uncle Chen!”
“Good, good, good!”
Chen Xianhe smiled and stroked his beard.” From the looks of it, you must have come with Brother Zhou? ”
ii
Uncle Zhou is here too?”
Zhou Siliang nodded.” My father is indeed here.”
At this point, Zhou Siliang’s words flickered.
“Since that’s the case, let’s pay a visit together.” Chen Daoxuan didn’t mind.
Back then, Zhou Mucheng had been of great help to the Chen family.
If not for Zhou Mucheng’s influence, the Chen family would not have been able to occupy the magical equipment market in Guang ‘an Prefecture’s wandering cultivator market so easily.
Since he had encountered it this time.
It was reasonable for him to go up and greet her.
When Zhou Siliang heard this, he hesitated for a moment before nodding.”Then I’ll bring the two of you over. Please!”
Under Zhou Siliang’s guidance.
Chen Daoxuan and Chen Xianhe saw Zhou Mucheng and his patrol fleet.
Chen Daoxuan was quite familiar with these people. After all, he had drunk quite a bit with them before.
H
Uncle Zhou!
ii
Seeing Zhou Mucheng, Chen Daoxuan smiled and cupped his hands.
“Dao Xuan.”
When he saw Chen Daoxuan, the worry on Zhou Mucheng’s face quickly disappeared. He looked at him in surprise and asked,” You’ve built your foundation?”
“Lucky!”
Chen Daoxuan smiled and cupped his hands.
“Brother Zhou!”
“Brother Chen!”
After greeting Chen Xianhe, Zhou Mucheng continued,” I didn’t expect that in less than four years, you would actually cultivate all the way from the seventh layer of the Aura Refining realm to the Foundation Establishment realm. I’m afraid that you’ll have a chance of becoming a Zifu Disciple in the future.”
“Uncle Zhou, you flatter me.”
Chen Daoxuan cupped his hands.” Brother Siliang is the dragon among men. We can look forward to the Purple Mansion in the future!”
When Zhou Mucheng heard Chen Daoxuan praise his son, he felt relieved.
In his heart, his precious son being able to build his foundation was indeed beyond his expectations.
Originally, he thought that he would be satisfied if he could use resources to push his son to the Foundation Establishment stage within ten years.
He didn’t expect that in just three years.
Zhou Siliang had actually taken a Foundation Establishment Pill and secretly built his foundation without him knowing. Moreover, he had succeeded.
Every time he thought of this.
Zhou Mucheng felt proud of his son, but at the same time, he felt a wave of fear.
Although the success rate of the Foundation Establishment Pill was 70 to 80%, once the Foundation Establishment Pill failed, the Dantian Qi Sea would be shattered, and one would either die or be crippled. The consequences were very serious.
Fortunately, Zhou Siliang succeeded.
Of course.
Zhou Mucheng knew Zhou Siliang’s talent very well. If nothing went wrong, being able to build his foundation would be his limit in this life.
If one didn’t have a great opportunity, the Purple Prefecture would be no different from a dream.
“Uncle Zhou, are you here to celebrate the completion of Spirit Day City?
H
Chen Daoxuan was rather surprised. Logically speaking, with the establishment of Spirit Day City, shouldn’t the Zhou Family be furious?
How could he still be in the mood to send people to celebrate?
This was clearly not the Zhou family’s style of handling things.
Chen Xianhe coughed.
Chen Daoxuan turned around and saw Chen Xianhe shaking his head at him.
” Brother Chen, you don’t have to cover for me.” Zhou Mucheng sighed and smiled bitterly.” I’m here to represent the Zhou family to apologize to the Wu family.”
“Apologize to the Wu family?”
The more Chen Daoxuan listened, the more confused he became.
Obviously, he had been staying on Shuanghu Island for a while, and something had happened in Guang ‘an Prefecture that he did not know about.
H
Sigh!”
Zhou Mucheng sighed.” Speaking of which, it’s our bad luck.
Two months ago, the Wu family had a cargo ship full of second-grade magic tools and spirit ores shipped to Guang ‘an Prefecture, but something happened on the way.”
“What does the Wu family’s cargo ship have to do with you?”
Chen Daoxuan frowned.
” Daoxuan, there’s something you don’t know. It’s not just the cargo ship transporting the mystic artifacts. Because the Wu Family’s goods are very valuable, they sent a large number of cultivators to escort them. Just the Wu Family’s Foundation Establishment cultivators alone number 136!”
“What?”
Hearing this, Chen Daoxuan could no longer suppress his surprise.
More than a hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators had died in Guang ‘an Prefecture, and their bodies could not even be found.
This was too sensational!
More than a hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators…even if a Zifu
Disciple personally attacked, it was hard to say if he would be able to take them down.
Even if they weren’t a match for Zifu Disciples, with so many Foundation Establishment Cultivators fleeing in streaks of light, it couldn’t be that not a single one of them could escape, right?
Although Zifu Disciples were powerful, they weren’t powerful enough to instantly kill more than a hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators with a wave of their hands.
At the very least, Chen Daoxuan had fought against a Zifu Disciple once. He knew very well that Zifu Disciples weren’t that powerful.
Especially since the Wu family was good at refining weapons, their foundation establishment cultivators would definitely have ling armor to protect themselves.
In such a situation, not a single Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Wu Clan was able to escape. Clearly, this wasn’t something an ordinary Zifu Disciple could do.
Could it be…Golden Core cultivator?
Chen Daoxuan was shocked by his own speculation.
Impossible!
But then, Chen Daoxuan shook his head.
There were no Golden Core cultivators in Guang ‘an Prefecture. Even if Golden Core cultivators from outside Cangzhou passed by Guang’ an Prefecture, they would not attack a group of Foundation Establishment cultivators for no reason.
Wasn’t this giving the Qian Yuan Sword Sect a handle?
If this matter was really exposed, it was impossible for the Qianyuan Sword Sect not to find out.
One had to know.
The Qian Yuan Sword Sect had a spell called Time Backtrack. If one wanted to escape their pursuit, they would have to use special means to disturb the heavenly secrets.
Obviously, ordinary Golden Core cultivators could not have this ability.
Thinking about it, Chen Daoxuan could not think of a result either.
“But what does this have to do with you, Uncle Zhou?”
Chen Daoxuan was very puzzled.
Zhou Siliang sighed and said helplessly, “”That day, my father was in charge of the safety of the route that the cultivators of the Wu family took.”
Hearing this.
Chen Daoxuan finally understood the cause and effect of the matter.
More than a hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Wu family had died, and they had lost a ship full of magic tools and spirit ores.
Zhou Mucheng of the Zhou family was in charge of the safety of the route for the Wu family.
“This matter has caused a huge commotion in Guang ‘an Prefecture. Now, all the families in Guang’ an Prefecture and Immortal City are doubting the ability of the Zhou family to protect the safety of the sea route.”
Zhou Mucheng clenched his fists tightly.
In fact, he knew that it was fortunate that they were not present that day. Otherwise, there would only be a few more corpses.
He was someone that even more than a hundred Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the Wu family could not withstand.
What could the twenty Foundation Establishment cultivators on his Spirit Void Battleship do?
That was what happened.
However, the other families ‘fear was their own fear.
Because the other families were all suspecting that this was done by the Zhou family.
It was because the Wu family was one of the main members of the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance.
In order to take revenge on the Wu family, the Zhou family killed all the cultivators who transported the goods from the Wu family as a warning to the others!
Forcing the families to withdraw from Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance.
In reality.
Anyone with a brain would know that it was impossible for the Zhou family to do this.
Because of the existence of the Qian Yuan Sword Sect, the Zhou family could not take such a big risk to do this.
But the problem was, if it wasn’t the Zhou family, who would have the strength and motive to do this?
At present, this matter had not spread among the itinerant cultivators. Otherwise, the impact would be even worse.
With the Zhou Family eating so unsightly, who would dare to go to Guang ‘an City in the future?
It wasn’t that no one had thought that the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance might have been the one who directed and acted.
However, on second thought, who would sacrifice the lives of more than a hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators for the sake of acting?
That was nearly a quarter of the Wu family’s Foundation Establishment Cultivators!
Because of this matter, the Wu family had also suffered a great loss. It was likely that it would be difficult for them to recover their past glory in the future.
Just as they were talking.
The celebration of Spirit Day City began.
On the square.
Yang Linyuan, who was wearing a gray Daoist robe, stepped on the auspicious cloud and flew up.
Chen Daoxuan knew that the auspicious cloud under his feet was not a real auspicious cloud, but a special flying magical artifact.
However, when he performed it in front of everyone, it vividly reflected the words sage-like.
As expected.
Everyone was attracted by Old Ancestor Yang and quieted down.
“Thank you, fellow Daoists, for coming to the opening ceremony of our Spirit
Day Immortal City. Today…”
On the auspicious cloud, Yang Linyuan smiled and spoke with confidence.
“.. I hope that in the future, we can work together to make Spirit Day City even more prosperous!”
After a few simple words.
Yang Linyuan was about to leave when a voice suddenly sounded.
“Everyone, please wait!”
The one who spoke was an old man with a perfected Foundation Establishment cultivation base.
The old man had a wide face and a wide nose. His expression was solemn, and he looked dignified without being angry. Coupled with his tall and straight figure, he gave off a sense of oppression.
Seeing the old man, Yang Linyuan sighed and said, “”Brother Wu, how about we discuss this matter later?
I, Yang, swear that I will definitely seek justice for your Wu family!”
Hearing this.
“Brother Yang, my Wu Family wants justice today!” Wu Guangyi shook his head.
As he spoke, his face turned pale..” Otherwise, the hearts of the Wu family will be completely scattered!”
