Family Rise by Daily Intelligence
Chapter 542 - 252
Liuu Meizhen had already anticipated it.
Then she said:
"Tang Clan Leader, the exact location of the mineral source can only be revealed after you agree, but rest assured, the mineral source is right on your land."
"Since the Tang Clan Leader is reluctant to part with that large shop, let’s compromise: you give up the one on West Street of Cloud Dragon Marketplace, and in addition, you give a tenth of the mineral source’s profit as a witnessing fee to Lord Cao, what do you think?"
The one on West Street.
The Tang Family used it to sell miscellaneous goods.
The business was poorly managed.
In recent years, the income was even less than what they earned through renting it out.
The Tang Clan Leader was already tempted.
Cao Xiang’er raised her eyebrows and glanced at Liuu Meizhen, giving up one-tenth of the mineral source’s profit was quite unexpected to her. Seeing the Tang Clan Leader still hesitating, she pushed further, saying:
"Tang Clan Leader, as for the Fu Family, I can vouch for them. You can be at ease."
After speaking.
She flicked her sleeve.
The prepared contract floated before the two of them.
The Tang Clan Leader glanced at the contract.
There was clearly a signature from Cao Xiang’er, which put his mind at ease. The two of them immediately signed and sealed it.
According to the contract.
The Tang Family needed to first summon the Yum Family’s Foundation Establishment to leave their land.
After the Fu Family relocated the third branch of the Yum Family, Liuu Meizhen would reveal the exact location of the mineral source, and the Tang Family would transfer the shop contract rights.
The Tang Clan Leader was decisive and efficient.
Fearing needless delays.
After signing the contract, he immediately issued the recruitment order in front of Liuu Meizhen.
By sunset.
The Yum Family’s Foundation Establishment had already been moved from the Yum Family’s land.
On the other side, Master Yunbo received Liuu Meizhen’s message and arrived early with Fu Yongyi at the deployment site for the fifth, seventh, and ninth branches exiled to Qiyang County.
When the treasure ship arrived in Qiyang County. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
The upper echelon of the Yum Family, who had received Master Yunbo’s message three years prior, had long secretly gathered their essential assets. In fact, the Yum Family in Qiyang County, which had already fallen on hard times for years, had nothing much left, as most valuables had been pawned for daily survival.
In these years.
They lived from hand to mouth.
Upon receiving Master Yunbo’s message.
Learning that relocating to Jingzhou could elevate them to a Ninth-Grade Noble Family, a few of the old ones were so excited they couldn’t sleep for several nights.
They had long yearned for this day to come.
When the treasure ship landed.
The elder of the fifth branch of the Yum Family, tears streaming down his face, looked at Master Yunbo standing before him:
"Sob, sob"
"Young Clan Leader, I never thought this old man would live to see you again."
The other elders were also moved to tears.
Indeed.
For nearly a century.
This lineage in Qiyang County had suffered immensely.
The Spiritual Qi in Qiyang County was thin.
The people of the fifth, seventh, and ninth branches could only reside on a Tier One Low-Grade Spirit Vein.
To make matters worse.
Ever since the second branch seized power, they withheld the clan’s stipend from the third branch.
Additionally.
A considerable amount of tribute had to be paid annually.
Life was harder than that of typical vassal Qi Cultivation Clans.
In such hard times.
It was all sustained by the belief that Master Yunbo from the long house line would eventually return to Jingzhou, and finally, they had endured to the end of their hardships:
"Sob, sob, sob, Young Clan Leader, the late Patriarch under the nether world would be relieved to know of your achievement."
The clan elders, thrilled, stepped forward to pay respect to Master Yunbo.
In the past.
Their third house was the most prominent in the clan.
After being exiled to Qiyang County.
Life became increasingly difficult; many clan members had to seek livelihoods elsewhere, some serving as apprentices in marketplace shops, others living perilous lives alongside hunters. These stories are tinged with bitterness.
Master Yunbo, too, choked with emotion:
"Elders, I apologize for being late and causing you to suffer!"
All these years.
The people of the three branches in Qiyang County, despite the difficulties.
Never considered switching allegiance to the second branch, which deeply moved Master Yunbo.
Fu Yongyi, standing nearby for a while, couldn’t help but remind:
"Uncle Yum, it’s not safe to linger here."
After all.
There are still so many people to settle.
Master Yunbo nodded repeatedly, immediately helping the elders organize clan members to board the ship.
This day was the Yum Clan Assembly in Qiyang County.
All the clan members.
Gathered together on the Daoist Field for the ceremony, with the crowd numbering over ten thousand.
Fortunately, they borrowed the largest treasure ship from the Shangguan Family.
Otherwise.
There wouldn’t have been enough room for everyone.
Even so.
It took nearly half a day to move everyone onto the treasure ship.
When the treasure ship activated.
Yum Feihong, never before seen in public, appeared in the ninth layer of the treasure ship’s cabin.
Yum Feihong was the golden phoenix that flew out of the chicken coop of the Yum Family in Qiyang County.
Given the harsh condition of this lineage in Qiyang County, there were few clan members able to cultivate to the Late Stage of Qi Cultivation.
Yum Feihong achieved this with astonishing perseverance.
Inspired by pride, Master Yunbo introduced to Fu Yongyi:
"Yongyi, this is the fifth sister I told you about, who established her Foundation without a Foundation Establishment Pill."
Establishing a Foundation without Pills.
It’s life or death!
The success rate of Foundation Establishment is dauntingly low, with success one-in-thousands, which is why so many Peak Qi Cultivators prefer clinging to life rather than risking it all for a chance.
Fu Yongyi, genuinely respectful, clasped his hands and greeted:
"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Yum"
This lineage in Qiyang County hid their strength, secretly nurturing Yum Feihong after detecting her Spiritual Root, and only two people knew she successfully established her Foundation.
