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

Upon seeing Xu Qingzhou, Lü Zhen immediately asked with concern, "Brother Xu, are you alright?"

“I’m fine, nothing’s wrong,” Xu Qingzhou replied.

Lu Zhenyi angrily cursed, "The bandits in the Demon Cloud Mountains are too rampant. I will definitely report to the imperial court and quell the bandits as soon as possible."

Xu Qingzhou smiled but remained silent.

If the Great Qi Dynasty really wanted to wipe out the bandits and outlaws of the Demon Cloud Mountains, it could easily send a strongman there and crush them with a single step.

But the fact that the Demon Cloud Mountains have existed for so long and remained intact suggests that there's more to it than meets the eye.

Perhaps some of these strongholds were established with the support of certain individuals from the Great Qi Dynasty.

Their role could be to balance the accounts, or to help them do some shady things.

Therefore, it was impossible to rely on the Great Qi Dynasty to suppress the bandits.

It would be better to wait for the Xu family to rise to power, and for Xu Luo to lead the Xu family elites to suppress the bandits.

Lu Zhen then asked, "When are you planning to move?"

"I'll be leaving soon after I'm all packed," Xu Qingzhou replied.

“Sigh…” Lu Zhen’s sigh was quite complicated.

Just like when Ji Dongfang, the city lord of Yunshan City, watched the Xu family leave, he was extremely reluctant to part with them.

They desperately hoped that the Xu family could stay, so that their own rise would bring prosperity to the entire city, and they too could benefit from it.

Unfortunately, people strive for higher positions, and the same applies to the development of family power.

If you have the means, you'll want to move to a more prosperous and better place.

Neither Yunshan City nor Yuhe City is too small. It was fine at first, but after the Xu family rose rapidly, they were no longer suitable for the Xu family.

This is inevitable.

Lu Zhen knew this day would come sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to come so soon.

Xu Qingzhou patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, brother, Yuhe City will always be our home, and we'll come back often."

Just like in Yunshan City before, the Xu family would leave some collateral branches to guard the area.

“Alright! We’ll drink and chat again then,” Lü Zhen said.

An hour passed after he left.

Su Xinyan has finally returned. When she chased after the leader of Kuangfeng Village, she was a murderous witch, but now she has become a soft girl with social anxiety.

Xu Qingzhou stepped forward and asked, "How are you? Are you hurt?"

"His strength is not enough to hurt me."

As Su Xinyan spoke, she waved her hand, and the corpse of the leader of Kuangfeng Village appeared beside her.

“Even if we killed one of the protectors of Kuangfeng Village, the village chief should not have come to do it himself. So I felt there was something fishy about this, so I left him with a whole body and brought him back.”

The leader of Kuangfeng Village is in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, while Su Xinyan is slightly weaker, being in the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

However, Su Xinyan possessed a top-tier spiritual body and had achieved mastery of her spiritual intent, making it easy for her to kill him even if he was above her level. If he hadn't mastered some secret techniques for escaping, he would have been killed by Su Xinyan long ago.

Xu Qingzhou had someone send the body to Xu Luo, who was skilled in soul searching. He wondered if a body that had been dead for a while could still be searched.

"Here, take this too, I don't need it."

Su Xinyan took out the storage magic item belonging to the chief of Kuangfeng Village and handed it to Xu Qingzhou.

As a powerful cultivator at the Nascent Soul Realm, and also the leader of a bandit gang comparable to a second-rate force, his wealth is unimaginable.

Xu Qingzhou simply glanced at it.

It has everything: martial arts techniques, elixirs, magical treasures, talismans, and spirit stones.

The low-grade spirit stones alone were piled up into a small mountain, there were several thousand mid-grade spirit stones, and dozens of extremely rare high-grade spirit stones.

The most precious items are the cultivation techniques and martial arts skills, which are passed down through generations, and the Xu family needs them now.

If he had come to his death sooner, Xu Qingzhou wouldn't have had to fleece his nephew when buying a house in Lingyue City.

Xu Qingzhou called Xu Luo over, took out all the items, and let him choose some that he could use.

Xu Qingzhou would give whatever he could to the chosen ones of the family, and he himself would benefit from investing in them.

.....

As dawn broke, the Xu family had already packed up and were ready to set off.

As before, the Xu family members traveled to Lingyue City in batches on multiple small flying boats.

However, Xu Qingzhou found a large flying boat, just like the one in Wanbaoge, in the storage bracelet of the leader of Kuangfeng Village. Now one flying boat would be enough.

Lu Zhen escorted them all the way to the city gate, and only after watching the Xu family's large flying boat completely disappear did he sigh and turn back to the city.

Xu Luo approached Xu Qingzhou again.

“I specifically sought out my master and asked him to help search the soul. From the memories of the chief of Kuangfeng Village, I learned that Kuangfeng Village was secretly supported by the Ninth Prince of the Dynasty. This time, their target is indeed Muge.”

Soul searching is a rather unseemly thing to do, which is why Xu Luo told this lie.

Xu Qingzhou understood this implicitly and was deeply moved.

"As expected, the Great Qi royal family cannot tolerate the emergence of exceptionally talented individuals from other forces."

Fortunately, Su Xinyan was there; otherwise, the Xu family would have been in grave danger this time.

It's also possible that nothing will happen, after all, the chosen one Xu Luo is at home, and maybe he still has some powerful trump cards he hasn't used yet.

In addition, there is the Lingyue Sect token that Su Xin gave me, which I can also use.

Xu Luo said, "Some major powers have similar habits in order to consolidate their dominant position."

Xu Qingzhou nodded, wondering what it would be like when the Xu family became a powerful force in the future.

Before leaving, Xu Luo gave Xu Qingzhou another box.

Just like the previous two times, it contained earth-rank cultivation techniques and martial arts skills, as well as a modified version of a pill formula.

Xu Luo was an expert in alchemy in his previous life, so he naturally mastered some special pill formulas.

This prescription is an improved version of the Zengyuan Pill, which is one of the pills that cultivators in the Xuan Dan realm often take during their cultivation.

"The previous Qi Gathering Pill and Consciousness Condensation Pill, plus this Yuan Enhancement Pill, correspond to the Qi Gathering Realm, Spirit Gathering Realm, and Profound Core Realm respectively. These are the three types of pills with the highest demand."

"With these three improved pill formulas, the Xu family can earn a lot of spirit stones and provide enough cultivation resources for the clansmen."

"Of course, some people or forces will also target the Xu family because of this, and then we will have to rely on the Lingyue Sect to make an example of them."

Xu Qingzhou instructed the Seventh Elder, who was in charge of the family's pill business, to summon all the family's alchemists.

In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the Seventh Elder and all the alchemists in the clan came before Xu Qingzhou.

It wasn't that the Seventh Elder was efficient, but rather that the Xu family only had seven alchemists.

This was because the Xu family had grown and expanded that year, and had spent a lot of spirit stones to cultivate them, which resulted in four more being born.

In the past, the Xu family had only three alchemists in Yunshan City, and the pills they produced were barely enough for the clansmen to consume. They never even dared to dream of earning spirit stones by selling pills.

Just as Xu Qingzhou was about to explain his arrangements and plans, he saw one of the seven alchemists and was completely stunned.

He was the youngest of the eight people in front of him, probably only eighteen or nineteen years old, with delicate features and clear eyes.

He stood at the very back, only half of his body visible, his head slightly bowed, as if he didn't want others to notice him.

Xu Qingzhou was stunned because there were words on his head, but not many, only four.

Xu Chu, immortal.
