"Thank you, Patriarch!" "Thank you, Patriarch!" Upon hearing the clan's reward, the servants were overjoyed and expressed their gratitude. For ordinary people like them, eating just three taels a day already made their blood and energy surge, filling them with vitality. Five pounds of blood rice was more than enough for their monthly needs, with extra to share with their families. Chen Yi Hu was also elated—not just because of the five pounds of blood rice but because of the merit this bountiful harvest brought him. Combined with the time he had bought for the clan earlier, he believed it wouldn’t be long before he could become a clan martial artist. Just as he was lost in thought, Chen Xingzhen's voice rang out: "Chen Yi Hu, Chen Xuan She, for your contributions to the cultivation of Blood Rice, the clan will make an exception and teach you both the Body Tempering Technique. Whether or not you succeed will depend entirely on your abilities." Chen Yi Hu, deep in contemplation, was first stunned before joy overtook him. This was the opportunity he had been waiting for. Even though he was already in his twenties—not the best age for body tempering—if he didn’t try, how would he be any different from a salted fish? Besides, once he became a martial artist, he would be fundamentally different from ordinary people. He might even be able to reach greater heights. But why was Chen Xuan She given this opportunity? Chen Yi Hu was better than Chen Xuan She in every way—or so he believed. Seeing the equally delighted Chen Xuan She beside him, he felt a flicker of doubt but wasn’t foolish enough to question the Patriarch’s decision. Before he could dwell on it further, he met Chen Xingzhen’s gaze. "Chen Yi Hu, for your outstanding contribution to the cultivation of Blood Rice, the clan will allow you to temper your body with wild animal flesh." Chen Yi Hu’s eyes lit up, and he quickly expressed his gratitude. Tempering with wild animal flesh was far more effective than blood rice! His chances of becoming a martial artist had increased significantly. This was a sign of the clan’s trust and the Patriarch’s favor! After rewarding them, Chen Xingzhen glanced at the happy servants and smiled slightly. In the past, he might not have been so generous. After all, there were about forty servants, and giving each of them five pounds of blood rice meant nearly two hundred pounds in total—almost half the yield of an acre of good land. But now, his vision was broader. A little blood rice was a small price to pay to win the hearts of the people. Perhaps among these servants, one or two might prove to be exceptional. As for the risk of them overshadowing the clan, he wasn’t concerned. They were already past their prime for martial cultivation, and even if one or two of them gained some strength, it would only be a pleasant surprise. Allowing Chen Xuan She and Chen Yi Hu to cultivate martial arts was a minor matter for the clan at this stage. Once they became martial artists, they could take on more responsibilities. Especially Chen Yi Hu—he might be worth nurturing. Everyone had their strengths and weaknesses. Chen Yi Hu was articulate and had handled Zhou Huai’an’s visit well. The clan currently lacked someone with his skills. As for the other clan members, they were somewhat lacking in this area. This was both a good and a bad thing. A clan cannot be made up of only one type of person, or it will fall into decline. Chen Xingzhen turned his gaze back to his clansmen working in the fertile fields. With his attention shifting to the upcoming meeting with Zhou Huai’an in two days, he left them to their tasks and returned to the clan.

"Clan leader, the Spirit Tailed Chicken is missing!" "Hmm?" Seeing the clan member scratching his head with a troubled expression, Chen Xingzhen was momentarily stunned but remained calm. "Explain what happened." "Clan leader, I went to feed the chickens early this morning, but when I reached the coop, only one Spirit Tailed Chicken was there. The other one is missing." "These two Spirit Tailed Chickens were specially kept by you for breeding purposes." The clan member looked guilty, his head lowered. Losing a Spirit Tailed Chicken wasn’t just a mistake—it was an embarrassment. If word got out, others might mock him for failing to keep an eye on a single chicken. Chen Xingzhen, however, merely smiled and reassured him. "It’s alright. It’s just a missing Spirit Tailed Chicken—no big deal. In a few days, I’ll have someone go to the Chaotic Burial Mountain to catch another one." With that, he left for the Ancestral Hall to pay respects to the Divine Tree, not taking the matter to heart. … "What? The chicken is missing?" Ji Yang, who was in the Ancestral Hall, hadn’t paid much attention to the report at first. But when he checked with his consciousness, he realized something— It was his chicken that was missing. This surprised him. For the past few days, he had been monitoring the Spirit Tailed Chicken, which had absorbed his spiritual energy. However, he hadn’t paid it much attention recently. And now, in just a short time, it had vanished. No—he had to find it. This wasn’t just any Spirit Tailed Chicken. He had invested two points of vital energy and one point of spiritual energy into it! … "Huh?" Chen Xingzhen, who had just stepped into the Ancestral Hall, let out a surprised sound, his face showing a hint of confusion. Moments ago, an inexplicable thought had flashed through his mind. Now, he was certain— This was the will of the Divine Tree. Anything that caught the attention of the Divine Tree was far from ordinary, though he didn’t yet know what was special about the missing chicken. But since the Divine Tree had spoken, he had to take it seriously. However, most clan members were occupied with harvesting Blood Rice, leaving few available to search for the missing chicken. After a moment’s thought, Chen Xingzhen settled on the perfect candidate. … In his room, Chen Qingyu was diligently practicing the moves of the Taizu Long Fist. Each punch was fluid and controlled. After reaching the Innate Realm, he no longer needed to unleash his blood qi with every strike. His mastery of the technique had improved tremendously, largely thanks to the insights the Divine Tree had bestowed upon him. Ever since his battle with the Green Wolf, his understanding of Taizu Long Fist had deepened, reaching the stage of mastery. As he practiced, a voice suddenly called out from outside the door. "Brother Qingyu, are you there?" Chen Qingyu opened the door to see Chen Qingxiu running toward him, panting. "Qingxiu, what’s the matter?" "It’s the clan leader—he asked me to tell you—" Before Qingxiu could finish, Chen Qingyu’s eyes lit up. His entire aura surged. "Alright, I understand. I will give it my all!" His voice was firm and resolute. These past few days, he had been restless, worried about the clan’s future. That day, had it not been for the clan leader’s intervention, he would have fought Zhou Huai’an right then and there. Now, with the Blood Rice harvest approaching and the Zhou clan’s arrival imminent, the clan leader had summoned him. It could only mean one thing— The clan was preparing to face the Zhou clan. He would give it his all. He would not retreat! Patreon Chapter Release Update Hello! Exciting news for our Patreon supporters!
