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

Xu Luo finally returned the day before he was to depart for the Azure Dragon Secret Realm.

It was accompanied by a large, fat, yellowish-gray dog, but upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a lion with horns.

Xu Qingzhou sized up the fat dog.

"Is this the monster that hatched from that ancient beast egg?"

Xu Luo placed his hand on Xiao Hui's head and rubbed it. "This is it. Master said it's called Suanni. In ancient times, there was an extremely powerful clan, but in this era, there are very few left. I named it Xiao Hui."

He usually kept it in his spirit beast pouch in crowded places, but he specially took it out to show Xu Qingzhou when he came to see him.

"Suyan?"

Xu Qingzhou was completely astonished. Wasn't this the mythical beast that existed in the mythical world before he transmigrated?

How could something appear in the ancient times of this world? Could there be some connection between the two worlds?

Xu Luo asked, "Do you know about this strange beast?"

“No, I just think the name is special,” Xu Qingzhou replied.

Xu Luo did not press the matter further.

"Rain River City is far from the capital. When should we set off?"

Xu Qingzhou replied, "I'll take Wanbaoge's flying boat first thing tomorrow morning."

Lingyue City and Taixu City are located on the east and west sides of the Great Qi Dynasty, while the imperial capital is in the center of the dynasty.

Rain River City is almost 100,000 miles away from the capital. If Xu Qingzhou were to pilot a flying boat, it would be slow and unsafe.

It would be better to take Wanbaoge's merchant ship.

Every so often, a large airship would depart from the Wanbao Pavilion in each city and head to the three main stores.

You can ride the bus by buying a ticket; it's fast, stable, and safe.

.....

The next day.

Xu Qingzhou led a group of Xu family members and left the Xu family.

The Xu family now has nearly forty cultivators at the Nascent Soul Realm. Apart from a few who are older, there are also those at the early and middle stages of the Nascent Soul Realm.

Finally, only these eight young people in the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm remained, and they were qualified to participate in the selection competition.

As for whether they can make it into the top fifteen and secure a spot, Xu Qingzhou didn't know.

Xu Qingzhou has a good attitude; if he can get a spot, great, but if he can't, he'll just consider it a chance to broaden his horizons.

Su Xinyan stayed close to Xu Qingzhou, her head slightly lowered, a thin layer of mist obscuring her features, but her elegant and refined demeanor still drew attention.

This puzzled the Xu family members. Judging from Su Xinyan's demeanor, she didn't seem like a maid. Could she be the clan leader's wife and the future matriarch of the Xu family? This was a big deal!

While the others were still puzzled, Xu Luo found it unbelievable.

With his abilities, he could naturally see through the deception on Su Xinyan's face and recognize that she was Su Xinyan from the Lingyue Sect.

However, Su Xinyan's behavior of following Xu Qingzhou around like a little follower left him completely baffled.

[What's going on! Is my memory playing tricks on me? How come Su Xinyan from the Lingyue Sect is at the Xu family's house? And she seems to have a good relationship with Sixth Uncle.]

I remember she didn't like going out or being in crowded places, so why did she come to the capital with us?

Su Xinyan is exceptionally talented and has a very unique personality.

This is why Xu Luo, who had joined the Lingyue Sect in his previous life, still remembers it vividly.

In her previous life, after Su Xinyan rose to power, the Lingyue Sect was able to stand firm amidst turmoil and upheaval thanks to her.

But in this life, she seems a little different.

Xu Luo feigned curiosity and stepped forward to ask, "Is this lady also a member of our Xu family? I've never seen her before."

Xu Qingzhou explained in a low voice, "Last time we were attacked on our way back from Lingyue City, Mu Ge was worried about the safety of the Xu family, so he begged his master to send people to protect the Xu family. That's when Mu Ge's senior sister came."

Xu Luo suddenly realized.

[But why is she standing so close to you? In my past life, I spent so many years in the Spirit Moon Sect, and I never saw her get this close to anyone else.]

[Could it be that they developed feelings for each other after only a few months of dating? If Uncle Liu has that kind of ability, why hasn't he gotten married before? Perhaps he just hadn't met anyone he liked?]

Xu Luo could only suppress all his doubts.

Xu Qingzhou smiled slightly.

I don't know about your past life, but in this life, she will be your aunt, the matriarch of the Xu family.

The Xu family arrived at Wanbaoge in Yuhe City, where a number of people had already gathered.

Some of the independent cultivators and people from other forces in the city also went to the Azure Dragon Secret Realm.

The other group consisted of people from the City Lord's Mansion, led by Lü Zhen, whose daughter Lü Qingqiu was also present.

The City Lord's Mansion has a profound foundation, and its cultivators at the Nascent Soul Realm are significantly more numerous and stronger, which is something that a small, newly developed family like the Xu family cannot compare to for the time being.

Lu Zhen personally led the team to the Azure Dragon Secret Realm, while Rain River City was left to his son to manage.

Once he is old and retires, the position of Lord of Rain River City will belong to his son. This is just a preliminary training exercise.

Lu Zhen said with a smile, "Brother Xu, your Xu family will definitely reap a great harvest in this Azure Dragon Secret Realm."

He was referring to Xu Muge. He thought the Xu family relied solely on Xu Muge, unaware that there was also Xu Luo.

“No, I only took them there to broaden their horizons,” Xu Qingzhou replied, waving his hand.

Lu Zhen affirmed, "This is just the first time they've shown their talent; next time, the Xu family will definitely become famous."

He wasn't flattering him; after all, with Xu Muge's talent, he would definitely have considerable strength and status in ten years, and the Xu family would certainly be much stronger than it is now.

"I hope so," Xu Qingzhou sighed.

Lu Zhen noticed Su Xinyan standing next to him, since they were quite close.

"This is... your sister-in-law?"

Xu Qingzhou took Su Xinyan's hand directly and nodded.

Although they had only held hands and nothing was going on yet, Su Xinyan knew that she had developed feelings for Xu Qingzhou and enjoyed being with him.

Now that he said this in public, Su Xinyan was extremely shy. She lowered her head, and her pretty face under the thin mist was already flushed red.

Lu Zhen quickly said, "Brother, you really are a hidden talent. When are you having your wedding banquet? Don't forget to send me an invitation."

The fact that the City Lord's Mansion could not form a marriage alliance with the Xu family left him with some regret.

“No problem, I definitely won’t forget you then,” Xu Qingzhou replied.

Their conversation left everyone around them bewildered.

Especially the Xu family members.

What's going on? The clan chief is getting married? Why didn't he tell his family about something this big?!

The Xu family patriarch is getting married, and the Xu family was the last to know. What kind of nonsense is this!

Xu Luo was also astonished.

Their relationship is definitely more than just ordinary!

[I never imagined that my rebirth would cause such a huge change, directly altering the development trajectory of Su Xinyan and even the Lingyue Sect.]

Lu Qingqiu was slightly taken aback. Half a year ago, her father had wanted to match her up with him.

Although I completely dislike him, only six months have passed and he's already preparing to get married? That's too fast!

Lu Qingqiu glanced at Su Xinyan, but couldn't make out what she looked like at all, and couldn't help but wonder.

"She even covered her face; how insecure must she be about her appearance?"

"But that makes sense. Given Xu Qingzhou's circumstances, he could only find someone like that."
