Chapter 904: Chapter 336: Foreign Realm, Ancient Artifacts, Saving Lives (Ten-Thousand-Word Combined Chapter)_2
"Miss Cao, the item in the box is a Guiding Order to enter the Kunlun Mini World of the Eastern Wilderness Tribe."
Kunlun Mini World’s Guiding Order?!
Cao Xiang’er’s pupils constricted.
She had been dispatched to Jingzhou shortly after breaking through the Purple Mansion, so her understanding of the Eastern Wilderness was limited. However, upon hearing Fu Changsheng’s explanation that only those with cultivation above the Purple Mansion could enter the Kunlun Mini World, she immediately became excited.
For a cultivator,
this is undoubtedly a great opportunity.
Cao Xiang’er was somewhat incredulous:
"Fu Clan... Changsheng, do you really intend to give me this Guiding Order?"
As for the Fu Family,
although she had helped a few times, it was just a helping hand.
This gift was truly too precious.
Fu Changsheng replied:
"Miss Cao, if you hadn’t chosen to trust me unconditionally last time, the Yun Family wouldn’t have been easily defeated. Consider this our Fu Family’s thanks gift to you. Besides, to be frank, we’re also hoping to leverage Miss Cao’s strength to enter the Kunlun Mini World."
Regarding the last incident,
she herself had benefited from it; it was a mutually beneficial situation.
To speak of debts,
it should be she who owes the Fu Family a favor.
However, seeing the opportunity right in her grasp, she naturally wouldn’t be foolish enough to refuse. She immediately bowed to Fu Changsheng:
"Changsheng, whenever the Fu Family has something within my ability to assist with in the future, please feel free to ask."
Such is very good.
Behind Cao Xiang’er stands the Fifth-Grade Cao Family.
Fu Changsheng smiled and helped Cao Xiang’er up:
"Miss Cao, based on the information I’ve obtained, the Kunlun Mini World will open in about two years, so please prepare early."
Two years’ time,
for a cultivator, is but a fleeting moment.
Cao Xiang’er said:
"Alright, once I’m back at the Myriarch Office, I’ll use Merit Points to investigate at the Scripture Pavilion for any information on the Kunlun Mini World. Additionally, I’ll send a message to my father, asking him to help gather relevant intelligence. If we can obtain a terrain map of the Kunlun Mini World, the risks of entering it will be greatly reduced."
Upon hearing this, Fu Changsheng’s smile grew even wider.
This was his original intention. Cao Xiang’er’s position in the Court meant access to information far surpassing that of their Fu Family, who were like frogs at the bottom of a well. Upon learning that Cao Xiang’er had this opportunity, the Fifth-Grade Golden Core Cao Family was certain to lend significant support.
The two talked for a while.
Cao Xiang’er, being decisive, bid farewell and immediately returned to the Myriarch Office.
After Fu Changsheng returned to Sang Garden, and once Meizhen handed over her miscellaneous affairs, he returned from Jingzhou.
....
Yunshan County.
In the Fu Family’s Council Hall.
Fu Yongfan sat at the head seat, occasionally glancing at the woman sitting beside Fu Yongfuu. Her attire was extremely daring, with only a red cloth draped over her bust, leaving her navel and shoulders completely exposed, drastically different from the style in Jingzhou.
Moreover, her facial features resembled those of foreigners from beyond the region.
Her speech had a soft and gentle accent.
Fu Yongfan managed to force out a slight smile:
"Miss Haiyun, I’ve had a room prepared for you, after your long and arduous travel, you’ve worked hard."
As he spoke.
He signaled Jade Lotus, who immediately rose to lead the guests out of the Council Hall.
Inside the hall,
only the Fu Yongfan brothers remained.
Fu Yongfan rubbed his temples, sighing:
"Fifth Brother, it’s said you’ve reached the age to marry. Now that you’ve found someone you care about, as your elder brother, I should undoubtedly make arrangements for you. However... the Miss Haiyun you’ve brought back can’t even recount her origins. You know our ancestral rules; even Guest Elders must be investigated thoroughly, let alone someone who would become part of the Clan Leader’s lineage."
"As for this matter... I can’t promise you anything; you should wait for Father to return and see what he has to say."
Upon hearing this, Fu Yongfuu suddenly became anxious.
He had initially planned to settle matters while Father was away, fearing that Father would disapprove of this marriage.
After all,
the Fu Family was nearing promotion to the Seventh-Grade.
Beneath Father, he was the only unmarried son of suitable age.
Many noble families were eager to form alliances through marriage.
If he waited any longer,
he might not get to marry the one he loved.
Fu Yongfuu looked pleadingly at Fu Yongfan:
"Brother, just this once, help me"
Fu Yongfuu had been sensible since childhood, never a worry, and never asked for anything from the family.
Fu Yongfan felt troubled.
Since Brother Fuu was no ordinary family member, possessing outstanding talent in Spiritual Cuisine. Over the years, the Spiritual Meal Recipes he developed numbered over a hundred. If this Miss Haiyun were a spy planted by an enemy, the theft of recipes would be a minor issue. Should it result in a major disaster later, regret would be too late:
"Fifth Brother, this matter is not up for discussion, Father and Mother have sent word and will return to the territory soon; you must endure for a few more days."
Having said that,
Fu Yongfan stepped into the side hall.
Within the hall,
the left and right sides were filled with Foundation Establishment Elders and Hall Masters from various regions.
With the Fu Family promoting three members to the Purple Mansion, such a celebration was a first in the entire South Huai Prefecture, and the Fu Family attached great importance to it. Preparations had been underway in full swing since Fu Changsheng sent word; this was the third meeting, finalizing the details for the ceremony.
Among them,
Fu Yongshang, seated at the lower left side, waited until the discussions were nearing completion, then stood to cup his hands and said:
"Brother Yongfan, with this Purple Mansion ceremony, I believe noble families across South Huai Prefecture will gather. I wish to take this opportunity to involve various major families in the construction of the Lordless City. This is my proposal, please take a look."
As he spoke.
With a wave of his sleeve, books landed beside each person’s tea table.
