Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors

The list of prodigies above Broken Mountain City has long since disappeared; otherwise, the fact that Xu Luofan's physique has transformed into the Five Elements Physique would have been exposed, causing unnecessary trouble.

Although the gates of Tianji Pavilion have been closed again, it has not disappeared and still stands in the suburbs of Duanshan City.

While chatting with Xu Qingzhou, Xu Luo brought up the matter of the Heavenly Pride Ranking again.

"In another ten years or so, geniuses from other continents will come to Cangzhou and challenge the geniuses of Cangzhou."

Xu Qingzhou asked in surprise, "Is that so?"

Xu Luo nodded, his gaze deep.

“There are barriers between the continents of Tianyuan Realm. No one except Saint Kings can pass through them. Therefore, only Saint Kings are qualified to travel to the continents.”

"However, after the ranking of geniuses is updated, the barriers between continents will be weakened, and as long as one has the cultivation of the Dharma Aspect Realm, one can pass through the barriers."

"Many prodigies choose to travel to different continents at this time, challenge other prodigies, and hone their skills to improve their strength."

[Cangzhou's overall strength is at the bottom among thousands of continents, and the strength of its geniuses is also much weaker. In my previous life, just two geniuses came and completely overwhelmed all the geniuses in Cangzhou.]

After that, no more prodigies came, because Cangzhou was too weak, and prodigies from other continents disdained to come.

However, with the rise of the Xu family in this generation and the possession of so many prodigies, there will undoubtedly be a continuous stream of talented individuals coming to challenge them. This presents both an opportunity and a challenge for the Xu family.

The reason it is called an opportunity is that most of the geniuses come here only to challenge the strong, not to make enemies.

This can lead to situations where people become friends after a fight.

The Xu family might even gain allies from other continents as a result.

Xu Qingzhou suddenly asked curiously, "Are there any forces on other continents more powerful than the Holy Land Dynasty?"

“Of course,” Xu Luo replied affirmatively.

"Two hundred thousand years ago, that period was called the ancient times. It was during that time that the first group of beings migrated from other continents to Cangzhou. After tens of thousands of years of development, it was divided into four regions: east, west, south and north, and three great dynasties emerged."

"After several major wars and upheavals, it took tens of thousands of years for Cangzhou to develop into its current state."

"The other continents existed before ancient times; their history is as long as 500,000 years ago, which is called the Primordial Era."

"What do you think the strength of a force that has existed since ancient times should be now?"

Xu Qingzhou was deeply shocked.

"From this perspective, the major powers in Cangzhou are no match for these other powers."

Xu Luo nodded and said, "It is indeed not enough. In ancient times, when Cangzhou was at its peak, the strongest was only a Quasi-Emperor at the ninth level. There wasn't even a Great Emperor. Now, there isn't even a Quasi-Emperor."

"These forces that have existed since the ancient times are called the Immortal Sect, the Ancient Families, the Imperial Court, and the Immortal Clan. Among these forces, there are Quasi-Emperors and Great Emperors, but no Heavenly Emperor. It is said that the Heavenly Emperor will only appear during the Great Struggle."

Jiang Hongye was a quasi-emperor from the ancient era. After the ancient era, no emperor-level powerhouse has appeared in Cangzhou.

Xu Qingzhou asked in confusion, "What's the story behind the rumor that when Jiang Hongye went to the Western Regions, another imperial aura appeared?"

“The Buddhism in the Western Regions is deeply hidden, but it doesn’t have a true imperial realm either; it’s probably only infinitely close,” Xu Luo replied.

[While the Buddhist sects of the Western Regions are indeed the strongest overall among the four regions, they are still somewhat lacking in the ability to possess a true Emperor-level expert.]

"Emperor Realm..."

Xu Qingzhou leaned back in his chair, looking up at the sky. This realm was too far away for the Xu family at present. He should first become a saint.

The following day, the Xu family held their regular meeting.

The Sixth Elder, who was in charge of the Zuixianlou business, reported.

"Currently, our Zuixianlou branches have been opened in cities and towns across three ancient kingdoms. Branches in the remaining five ancient kingdoms are also under construction and are expected to be opened in about five years."

During the period when the Xu family was suppressed, although the Zuixianlou branch could not open, they had been making preparations to open the store, and it could be said that everything was ready.

Therefore, after the suppression disappeared, the Xu family opened stores at an unusually fast pace. Often, within a month, they could open a Zuixianlou restaurant in every city and town of a certain prefecture in an ancient kingdom.

Such efficiency has left the world speechless.

The saying goes, "Good wine needs no bush."

The Xu Family's Drunken Immortal Pavilion possesses the legacy of a wine saint, and the spirit wines they brew have been stored in the Azure Dragon Secret Realm for a period of time, making them all aged wines.

Therefore, as soon as Zuixianlou opened in a city, its business would become extremely booming, making a fortune even if it wasn't quite a daily cash cow.

Xu Qingzhou said, "While opening stores in the remaining five ancient kingdoms, we can start formulating a branch plan for the Great Xia Dynasty."

Given the current close relationship between the Xu family and the Great Xia Dynasty, no force would dare to make things difficult for Zuixianlou when it opens a branch in the Great Xia Dynasty; it will definitely be a smooth process.

The Great Xia Dynasty is a huge market, larger than the eight ancient kingdoms combined, so a detailed business plan must be developed in advance.

This task will be left to Yu Shufei. The Sixth Elder has always been in charge of management and operations, and Yu Shufei is mainly responsible for formulating and controlling various plans and strategies.

The day the Heavenly Fire Flame Beast clan gains absolute power in the Northern Region, the Drunken Immortal Pavilion will be able to flourish everywhere in the Northern Region.

Xu Qingzhou felt that this would depend on the future support of the Xu family. If the Heavenly Fire Burning Beast Clan were to do it on their own, they probably wouldn't be able to become the leader of the Northern Region even after tens of thousands of years.

This isn't to look down on them, but rather because they genuinely lack the ability.

The Fourth Elder, who was in charge of procurement, asked, "Should we continue to acquire those four types of spiritual items we bought before?"

“Of course, those spiritual items are of utmost importance to our Xu family. We will buy as many as we can, even if it means selling our pots and pans,” Xu Qingzhou replied confidently.

In critical moments, they might even sell the sacred medicine obtained from the Great Zhou Imperial Palace.

The Fourth Elder replied, "Alright, I understand."

All seven elders knew about the Five Elements Spiritual Bodies. The reason the Fourth Elder asked was because those spiritual items were too expensive.

I bought ten portions before, and the spirit stones I used were equivalent to three hundred top-grade spirit stones.

If they continue buying, the Xu family's savings might not be enough to sustain the business.

Xu Qingzhou said another sentence.

"Don't worry, those spiritual items are quite rare and priceless. Before our family's wealth runs out, the spiritual items on the market will definitely be sold out first."
