Chapter 2429: The Future of the Family

Supreme Saint Qingsheng and Zhang Ruochen walked along the lake. There were spiritual flowers under their feet and blood trees by the roadside. Wherever they passed, inscriptions of array appeared. They were like transparent lines and soon disappeared.

“Zhou Zhen is a talent. He has become Lord of Mountain among the High-Saint Array Masters at such a young age. I think his attainments are not far from becoming the King of Sea and Land.

“Xia Yu has condensed Grade Three Saintwill and was able to challenge Yan Huangtu. She’s also a promising talent who has unlimited potential in the future.

“Ruochen, you may be young, but you have many talented people around you. I’m very envious.”

Supreme Saint Qingsheng said this casually.

Zhang Ruochen did not say much and nodded.

Suddenly, Supreme Saint Qingsheng stopped and said seriously, “You’ve been in Infernal Court for a while. What do you think of this place?”

“It’s fine. It’s no different from Celestial Court,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Supreme Saint Qingsheng beat around the bush. “What do you think of Xue Jue Family?”

“I don’t know much. What do you mean?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Supreme Saint Qingsheng sighed and continued walking forward.

Zhang Ruochen stared at his back and followed him thoughtfully, he asked, “I see that Xue Jue Family is powerful. The three gods dominate the clan, and Wargod has become the ruler. We are on the crest of a wave. Why do you sigh?”

Supreme Saint Qingsheng walked in front. He smiled slyly with his eyes moved.

His smile disappeared as he turned around. He said with a frown, “Yes, Xue Jue Family is indeed a big family that even has three gods. However, gods can’t interfere with worldly affairs. If one wanted to grow and protect their family, they have to rely on Saint-level disciples. Supreme Saints are the pillar of a force’s development.”

Zhang Ruochen’s heart lit up. He understood something and smiled. “Uncle, if you have something to say, just say it.”

Supreme Saint Qingsheng’s face darkened, he said earnestly, “Xue Jue Family is in Dominion of Bloodysky Clan. Their core territory is more than ten million miles wide. They control trillions of Immortal Vampires. Other than that, we have eight million Planet of Life in milky way of styx. To manage such a large family, I am more than willing but I lack talent.”

Before Zhang Ruochen could speak, Supreme Saint Qingsheng continued, “Talents! Every family and force needs an endless stream of talents to flourish and grow stronger. Only then can they have a foothold in this cruel world of competition.”

Zhang Ruochen said, “I see that Xue Jue family is full of talents. In the last thousand years, Xueqi, Xue Chen, and Xue Ningxiao have all cultivated Supreme Saint Realm. Not to mention, some of the direct descendants of Xue Jue family have also cultivated to Supreme Saint Realm, right?”

Supreme Saint Qingsheng said, “There are some Supreme Saints in Xue Jue Family, but most of them are only in Neverwilt Realm and Hundred-Shackle Realm. To bring up a Supreme Saint requires a huge amount of resources. Some of these resources are very scarce and can not be bought with Godstones. For example, Saintwill Pill.”

Zhang Ruochen completely understood!

After taking such a big detour, Supreme Saint Qingsheng was actually planning to take the Saintwill Pills in his hand.

Supreme Saint Qingsheng struck while the iron was hot. He continued, “During this Celestial-Hunting Festival, Grand Supreme Master refined 100,000 Saintwill Pills in one go. Even the lowest level of it was Heaven Grade Saintwill Pills. No matter what, those are all Grand Supreme Master’s doing!

“Usually, it’s rare for a High-Saint Elixir Master to refine dozens of Saintwill Pills in one batch. Moreover, the level is far from Grand Supreme Master. However, even so, these dozen of Saintwill Pills will be quickly snatched up by all the big forces.

“Ruochen, you must have collected a lot of Saintwill Pills, right?”

Zhang Ruochen looked at Saint Qingsheng’s smiling face. He was like a fox.

“It seems that the family really lacks Saintwill Pills,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Supreme Saint Qingsheng said, “Of course. Condensing Saintwill is too important for Supreme Saints in Neverwilt Realm and Hundred-Shackle Realm. Those Supreme Saints who can’t condense Grade Five Saintwill all choose to stop accumulating at Hundred-Shackle Realm. This has a bad effect on the future of Xue Jue family.”

Zhang Ruochen nodded, “As a member of Xue Jue family, I’m definitely willing to support the family’s future. How about this? I’ll take out 20 top Heaven Grade Saintwill Pills and 10 King Grade Saintwill Pills as a contribution.”

Supreme Saint Qingsheng shook his head and said, “You’ve made a great contribution to Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting. You should be rewarded by the family. How can the family take what you’ve risked your life for? How about this? We’ll buy It.

“I’ll buy Saintwill Pills from you in the name of Xue Jue family.

“One Godstone for one top Heaven Grade Saintwill Pills.

“20 Godstones for one King Grade Saintwill Pills.”

Supreme Saint Qingsheng knew that he couldn’t buy Quasi-Emperor Grade Saintwill Pills and Emperor Grade Saintwill Pills with Godstones, so he didn’t even mention it.

Zhang Ruochen said, “The price is fair.”

“But I want to buy all Heaven Grade and King Grade Saintwill Pills in your hand.”

Supreme Saint Qingsheng immediately added, “These Saintwill Pills are useless to you. They’re worthless in your hands.”

Zhang Ruochen readily agreed and said, “Okay, I’ve collected 37 King Grade Saintwill Pills and 458 top Heaven Grade Saintwill Pills. I’ll sell them all to the family.”

“Ruochen, uncle wants more than this.” Supreme Saint Qingsheng stared at him.

Zhang Ruochen spread his hands and said helplessly, “Uncle, you must have seen the projection of the Mystic Eye of Myriad Realms. I’ve only collected so many Saintwill Pills.”

“Indeed, you’ve only collected so many Saintwill Pills. But there should be more that you’ve taken from other Supreme Saints, right?” Supreme Saint Qingsheng looked shrewd.

Indeed, Zhang Ruochen had defeated and killed many Supreme Saints of Infernal Court on Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting. He had also taken their storage. He had taken more than 200 King Grade Saintwill Pills and more than 3,000 top Heaven Grade Saintwill Pills.

However, Zhang Ruochen also knew how to plan ahead. Whether it was establishing Ming Sect or Qiankun Realm, he would definitely nurture Supreme Saints in the future.

How could he not keep a priceless treasure like Saintwill Pills?

After a long while, Zhang Ruochen said, “Uncle, I have cultivated Grade Two Saintwill. Yin Yang Five-Element Saintwill has merged with the six elements. I would like to ask for your guidance.”

Supreme Saint Qingsheng’s face suddenly turned green, and he let out a series of dry coughs.

“No need, no need… Emm, you are injured. It’s better not to do so. How about this? 100 King Grade Saintwill Pills and 1,000 top Heaven Grade Saintwill Pills. With this batch of Saintwill Pills, it’s enough for the family to use them for ten thousand years.”

Zhang Ruochen waved his hand and said, “Uncle overestimates me too much. I don’t have so many. I really don’t.”

Supreme Saint Qingsheng stroked his beard and took out a box from his sleeve. He said solemnly, “Wargod has a treasure. He asked me to bring it to you.”

“What’s this?”

Zhang Ruochen took the box and felt a little pressure on his hand.

Supreme Saint Qingsheng said, “Before you entered Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting, the protective Divine Marks carved on your body by Moon Goddess and sister were all erased, right?

“In fact, after reaching Supreme Saint Realm, you no longer need the protection of Divine Marks. Supreme Saints are all elites who have grown up. With the protection of Divine Marks, one would be like a baby who has not been weaned.

“However, in order to prevent you from being assassinated by the gods, you need to be prepared.”

Zhang Ruochen opened the box. A dazzling blood light burst out from it, causing his eyes to narrow slightly.

It was an ancient belt.

The belt looked like it had been forged from blood jade. It was crystal clear. In the center, it was forged into the shape of a wing with black metal. In the center of the pair of black metal wings, there was a mysterious character with a terrifying aura.

It was a divine text that contained the will of a powerful god.

Supreme Saint Qingsheng said, “That’s the word ‘fight’.”

“Fight!”

The blood in Zhang Ruochen’s body boiled under the light of the blood. The fighting spirit in his body grew stronger and stronger. Array inscriptions in the entire Vastsea Manor trembled.

Supreme Saint Qingsheng said, “This belt is called Wargod Belt. It was given to Wargod Bloodximius by Fane of Immortality when he became the 13th Wargod of Immortal Vampires. It has an incomparable symbolic meaning. Only Wargods of Immortal Vampires is qualified to wear it.”

No matter how profound Zhang Ruochen’s state of mind was, he was still shocked at this moment.

Only Wargods could wear the belt. How could Wargod Bloodximius give it to him, a Supreme Saint?

This was just like how Luo Yan had suddenly asked Luo Shengtian to sit on his throne one day. Luo Shengtian would probably be so scared that his legs go soft!

How could a Hundred-Shackle Realm Supreme Saint afford such an identity?

Supreme Saint Qing Sheng said, “If a God attacks you, Wargod Belt will be activated in an instant and Wargod Bloodximius will be alarmed. With Wargod Belt, you can cross dimensions and borrow part of Wargod Bloodximius’ divine force. You should have no problem protecting yourself.

“Of course, Wargod Belt is more symbolic. It means that Wargod Bloodximius has high expectations for you. If you can become the Wargod of Immortal Vampires in the future, Xue Jue Family will really be able to look down on the world.”

Zhang Ruochen was touched and his heart was heavy.

“Thank you, Grandpa.”

Zhang Ruochen did not refuse.

He was indeed in danger in Infernal Court. There were gods who wanted to take his life.

He wrapped Wargod Belt around his body. Suddenly, the light on the belt was restrained and became plain.

Supreme Saint Qingsheng’s eyes shone with envy. As one of the few surviving sons of Wargod Bloodximius, when had he ever been so valued?

Wargod Bloodximius valued Zhang Ruochen far more than all of his children.

Supreme Saint Qingsheng said, “For Immortal Vampires, when you reach Supreme Saint Realm, you will be given your own fiefdom. With your attainments in cultivation, I have decided to represent Xue Jue Family and give you 300 Planet of Life and 200 mineral planets in Sky Solitude Domain as your private fiefdom.”

Xue Jue family was indeed powerful and rich.

Zhang Ruochen was only in Hundred-Shackle Realm, but he had already obtained 500 fiefdom planets.

If his cultivation had higher attainments in the future, wouldn’t he have more fiefdom?

For other Supreme Saints, they needed to run their own fiefdom to earn Saint Stones and Godstones to buy cultivation resources. However, Zhang Ruochen was richer than some gods, so there was no need to waste time on fiefdom.

Zhang Ruochen said, “It’s too troublesome to manage 500 planets. I heard that Xue Jue family also has businesses on Hoth. Why don’t you divide the businesses and territories among Hoth to me?”

Supreme Saint Qingsheng’s eyelids twitched, he said, “Hoth is complicated and dangerous. Xue Jue family doesn’t have many businesses there. It’s meaningless for you to go. Why don’t I give you 800 planet fiefdoms, including a sixth-level main star?”

Zhang Ruochen waved his hand, “Uncle, let’s not beat around the bush. Hoth’s an eighth-level planet. It’s billions of times larger than a normal first-level planet. Divine veins could be nurtured inside. Even if it only takes a portion of the benefits, it’s still stronger than 800 planet fiefdoms.

“Besides, Hoth is the only way to the edge of Infernal Court and Dominion of Bloodysky Clan. There’s a lot of movement of wealth there. Who doesn’t want to get a share?”

Supreme Saint Qingsheng knew that he couldn’t fool Zhang Ruochen. He sighed. “Hoth isn’t that simple.”

“Don’t you believe in my ability, uncle? I’m confident that I can expand Xue Jue family’s business and power on Hoth. I can even control it.” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Supreme Saint Qingsheng glared at him, “Only the top masters in Saint-level can snatch food and benefits from the tiger’s mouth. Even I don’t have the confidence to control those tigers and wolves. You’re only in Hundred-Shackle Realm. How dare you speak so arrogantly?”

“Didn’t I achieve my goal of condensing Grade Two Saintwill?

“I also achieved my goal of leading Immortal Vampires to get first place of the ten clans!” Zhang Ruochen said.

Supreme Saint Qingsheng shook his head and said, “It’s different. This time, it’s different. Do you know who controls the properties and territories of Hoth within Xue Jue Family?”

“Who?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Supreme Saint Qingsheng said in a low voice, “The matriarch of Xue Jue Family, Wargod’s wife, Madam Nixuan.”

Zhang Ruochen’s pupils constricted, and his face became serious.

Supreme Saint Qingsheng thought that Zhang Ruochen would back down. He patted his shoulder and said, “Wargod doesn’t want internal disputes in Xue Jue family. Otherwise, it’ll be difficult for him.”

Zhang Ruochen snorted. “As far as I know, after mother and Lord Ming came back, the first step was to hollow her out and send all the cultivators under her to Battlefield of Merits. How can she still control part of the power and interests of Xue Jue Family?”

When Blood Empress and Lord Ming were young, Madam Nixuan sent them to Kunlun’s field to kill them.

Supreme Saint Qingsheng said, “When brother and sister came back, Madam Nixuan did keep a low profile and chose to hide. But as the wife of Wargod Bloodximius, who would dare to attack her directly? Besides, Madam Nixuan’s background is Fane of Asura.”

“Leading Fane in Asura,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Supreme Saint Qingsheng nodded, he said, “Brother and sister can distribute the cultivators of Xue Jue family under her banner to Battlefield of Merits, but they can’t control her. She can also mobilize the superiors of Fane of Asura to help her control the property and interests.

“After all, the gods can’t interfere with worldly affairs. Brother and sister can’t do anything to her.

“Since Madam Nixuan has retreated behind the scenes, we shouldn’t take the initiative to cause trouble. We don’t want to provoke her and cause internal disputes.”

“Madam Nixuan must have married into Xue Jue family after Wargod had passed the Yuanhui tribulation, right? She could represent Fane of Asura and marry Wargod Bloodximius. She must be extremely talented. What are her attainments in cultivation now?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Seeing that Zhang Ruochen was still unwilling to give up, Supreme Saint Qingsheng threatened, “Madam Nixuan was once Fane of Asura’s Scioness. Anyway, I am far from being her match.”

“Uncle, the reason why you are still the temporary head of the family is that she still has a lot of power of invisibility. Why don’t we join hands and defeat her? By then, the word ‘temporary” should be removed from your title!” Zhang Ruochen said seductively.
