Chapter 652 – Omen
”That’s right, Old Ancestor need not worry. The two seniors, Sun and Mo, have been friends with the Fu family for hundreds of years and will definitely arrive as scheduled. Nowadays, their high status in the Devil Flame Sect is also inseparable from the strong support of our Fu Family. Furthermore, we have married two of the most outstanding women in our clan to these two as concubines, so how could they have the cheek not to come!” Next to the white-faced middle-aged man, there was another fine-browed, brocade-robed old man who said with the same respect.
”I am not worried about Sun and Mo’s two old friends not coming, but for some reason, the closer we get to the birthday day, the more distracted we get, as if something big is going to happen, I am really a bit worried! Recently, has our Fu family offended any powerful characters or other large sects?” The Fu family’s old ancestor twirled his long beard in his hand and said with a cold light in his eyes, his original smile disappearing.
Hearing this, the people in the hall couldn’t help but look at each other.
As a result, after a long time, the white-faced man carefully replied: ”Old Ancestor, you also know! Although our Fu Family has prospered and become powerful over the years, there are countless clans and small sects that have offended us. But the ones that are most hostile to us are still the Qin Family and the Hu Family, could it be that the two of them are up to something.”
”It shouldn’t be these two families! These two families were originally able to compete with our Fu Family, but nowadays, there aren’t many high-ranking cultivators left, so how could they be capable of making waves again.” The old ancestor of the Fu family coldly shook his head, but after frowning, he hesitated for a moment and said, “However, if the two families join forces or unite with a few other hostile sects, and take advantage of this opportunity to launch a surprise attack, it would indeed cause our Fu family to suffer a great deal of vitality. After all, back then, in order to curry favor with the Devil Flame Sect, our Fu Family had actually killed quite a few cultivators from the two families that were trying to resist the Devil Dao. Now that the Qin and Hu families have been forced to lose their foundations and go into hiding and concealment, it is not impossible for them to do this matter as they hate our Fu Family to the bone.” The old ancestor of the Fu Family’s face became gloomy and watery.
”Then what does the old ancestor mean?” The brocade-robed old man asked cautiously.
”Loose on the outside and tight on the inside! All guard posts should double their manpower from the original! The Fort Protection Formation will be turned on all day long and will not be allowed to stop for a moment! Especially for those unidentified loose cultivators, send more men to keep an eye on them!” In a flash, the Fu Family’s old ancestor closed his eyes with his head tilted back, but his mouth issued a series of orders without the slightest disturbance.
”Yes, grandson will arrange to do so!” After hearing this, the white-faced middle-aged man immediately led the order and went out.
The few other Fu Family juniors left behind in the side hall could see that the Fu Family’s old ancestor was in a bad mood this moment, and each of them stood in place without daring to breathe a single breath!
”Tian Yun, call your third uncle out, have him put the Ironback Sacred Beast into his Spirit Beast Pouch, and accompany me to the Birthday Celebration Assembly. Only he can drive our Fu Family’s clan-suppressing sacred beast!” The Fu Family’s old ancestor suddenly spoke again.
”What? Didn’t the Old Ancestor originally say that Third Uncle is now in a critical period of cultivation and that he should not be alarmed this birthday?” The brocade-robed old man couldn’t help but lose his voice when he heard this.
”Hmph! The original is the original, and the present is the present! We cultivators, although it’s impossible to really do good luck and avoid bad luck and foretell the future, but sometimes some of the spiritual signs of the heart. But sometimes some spiritual signs of the heart. In order to be careful, have to prevent. It is better for the old man to be overly concerned than for our Fu Family to really encounter a great calamity and have something happen.” The old man said with a cold snort.
”Yes, I’ll go and ask Third Uncle to come out.” The brocade-robed old man couldn’t help but be startled when he saw that the Fu Family’s old ancestor was about to become angry, and with a coy promise in his mouth, he similarly went out.
Next, the Fu Family’s old ancestor still refused to stop, and ordered down a few more orders one after another before his heart was at ease.
In his mind. There are so many backhanded preparations down, is something is also enough to cope with.
Outside the Purple Road Mountain, on an open hillside, there were quite a few scattered cultivators gathered, as many as twenty to thirty of them. They were pointing at the purple mist while whispering about something.
Han Li was also alone amongst this group of cultivators, silently surveying the surrounding situation, as if he were a common, solitary casual cultivator.
In the Yuanwu Kingdom, there were so many Foundation Establishment casual cultivators, which was really a bit unexpected by Han Li. The ones who had come to celebrate the birthday of the Fu Family’s old ancestor were surely only a small portion of them. In that year’s Yue Country, in addition to the seven sects, there were very few scattered cultivators who could build foundations. Although Yuanwu country is larger than the country of Yue, think it will not be too far away is, now only more than a hundred years of light in the past, there is such a situation, so that Han Li quite a sense of the vicissitudes of the world, which is quite a bit of dark wonder.
Han Li does not know, when the two paths of the righteous and the devil did not move before the war, most of the foundation dan are mastered in the hands of the large and small sects and families, naturally difficult to build the foundation of the people of the scattered cultivators. But a hundred years ago the turmoil together, a lot of sects and families are involved in it, extermination, cut off the inheritance and incense thing, frequent extreme. As such, a large amount of Foundation Establishment Pills were also circulated in the chaos.
Although most of them were obtained by other sects and immortal cultivation families, there is also a considerable part of the Foundation Establishment Dan fell into the hands of the scattered cultivators by chance, resulting in more than a hundred years, the number of scattered cultivators of the Foundation Establishment period in various countries has increased dramatically, and also formed a small force, and even under the coincidence, take this opportunity to form the Golden Dan of the scattered cultivators.
However, no matter whether the righteous devil two or the heavenly way alliance, on these loose cultivators can be absorbed to absorb, can not be absorbed on the suppression of the strategy, resulting in the number of high-level loose cultivators, although the number of drastically increased, but always can not be congealed into a group, can not become what climate.
Han Li is secretly pondering at the same time, suddenly outside the sky seven or eight red light shooting from, light convergence, showing a group of men and women dressed in red clothing to cultivators.
At the head of the two JieDan cultivators, a face full of white hemp, waist across the gourd, the other looks ordinary, but the eyes of the cold light forcing people, beside them each snuggled with a beautiful as a flower of the female cultivator, followed by four disciples disciple look like the Foundation Establishment stage cultivators.
”It’s people from the Devil Flame Sect.” At the sight of these people, the scattered cultivators on the hillside, there was a commotion, and someone even shouted in a low voice.
”That’s the Magic Flame Sect’s Protector Sun and Protector Mo who specialize in foreign affairs, and the two female cultivators next to them are the famous Fu Family’s Twin Beauties, and I heard that they’ve already been given to these two seniors as concubines.” Some of the more knowledgeable casual cultivators, on the sidelines, whispered in a lower voice to their side companions, fearing that they would be overheard by the Demon Flame Sect cultivators.
To Han Li’s divine sense, these words naturally heard everything, the eyes could not help but look towards the two Devil Flame Sect JieDan cultivators more than a couple of eyes, and then swept his eyes on their side of the female cultivators, and it was really two beautiful women.
These Devil Flame Sect cultivators to these scattered cultivators, as if they were oblivious, one of the Devil Flame Sect disciples walked to the front of the mist, raised his hand and released a sound transmission note flew into the mist, and then honestly returned to the two JieDan cultivators behind.
A few moments later, the purple mist tumbled, cracking open a passageway on its own, and a few Fu Family welcome disciples greeted them with a respectful look on their faces.
Han Li took this opportunity to look deeply at the several Fu Family disciples before withdrawing his gaze expressionlessly.
At this time, a group of Demon Flame Sect cultivators entered the purple mist, and the mist closed up once again.
In the following one or two hours, there were some late emissaries from other clans and some small and medium sized sect cultivators who arrived at the mountainside one after another, and were similarly picked up by the people of the Fu family.
After waiting for quite a while longer, a middle-aged steward with an apologetic face finally came out from the purple mist.
”Letting all of you Dao friends wait for such a long time, it’s really our Fu Family’s fault for being rude. It’s not that the Pay Family has discriminatory intentions towards the Dao Friends, but the Pay Family Fort has limited space, and it’s indeed not easy to arrange for too many cultivators to enter at once, that’s why we can only invite the Dao Friends to enter the fort on the day of the birthday. However, please rest assured, as long as it is to come to our ancestor sincere birthday celebration of the same Taoist, in the fort are treated equally. The banquet has also long been prepared in the hall, so please follow behind and enter the fort together.”
This steward was very eloquent, and with a few words, he made the dissatisfaction of the scattered cultivators dissipate for the most part. Thus, after looking at each other for a few moments, these loose cultivators followed the middle-aged steward into the mists without saying anything more.
Han Li walked calmly at the end of the crowd, but after a moment, he suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Whether it was the cultivators walking in front or the Fu Family disciples in charge of monitoring the formation, none of them were able to detect the slightest abnormality, as if he had never been the one to come in.
Several Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators of the Fu Family were standing within an opulent hall, smilingly greeting some of the guests who had arrived in advance, making sure to satisfy each and every one of them without any feeling of being left out.
These guests are as many as two to three hundred people, some only arrived today, some have already arrived at the Fu Family Fort four or five days ago, and now that the birthday of the Fu Family’s oldest ancestor has arrived, these people are naturally gathered together, waiting for the appearance of the Fu Family’s oldest ancestor.
With the Fu family’s growing popularity in the Yuanwu Kingdom, those small families and casual cultivators are naturally praising the Fu family. It was the emissaries of the slightly larger families and the cultivators of some small clans who were all full of smiles, chatting with the cultivators of the Fu family.
