Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 623 - 272: Exotic Stone, Love Seed, Plant Spirit Body

"Yes, Patriarch."

Fu Changsheng and Fu Molan activated the Invisibility Technique, swiftly dashing toward the Stone Mountain on the western side.

The Cyan-faced White Fox led the way ahead.

All the way down.

Reaching several hundred feet underground.

"Chirp chirp."

The Cyan-faced White Fox pointed at a large stone ahead and called out twice.

Fu Molan swept it with Divine Sense and transmitted:

"Patriarch, did you discover anything?"

The large stone appeared to be just an ordinary stone, with no trace of an array.

Fu Changsheng also did not sense anything unusual.

After all, neither of them were Array Masters.

Yet, the Cyan-faced White Fox was certain that the aura disappeared here.

Fu Changsheng was somewhat surprised:

"For a small Qi Cultivator, to actually have such means."

Immediately, he joined his right hand’s index and middle fingers, reciting a spell, quickly sliding across his eyes. As he blinked them open, a faint white light burst from his eyes.

The white light fell upon the large stone.

What was once an unremarkable stone now revealed itself as an ancient stone gate, with indecipherable ancient inscriptions on it.

Clearly.

This stone gate should have originally existed here.

Madam Luoo had found it by chance, leading to her settling in this place.

Had it not been for his Divine Clarity and Bright Eyes technique, progressed during thirty years of closed cultivation using the potion made from the sap of the new Tree of Spiritual Eyes, he might not have discovered the flaw in this stone gate.

He waved his sword-point finger.

With a ding sound.

A Sword Aura fell upon the Celestial Qian Position of the stone gate.

Rumble!

The stone gate instantly opened outward.

The two of them flickered and immediately entered the cave.

...

Inside the Cave Mansion.

Madam Luoo was momentarily stunned to see two people suddenly intrude. Once she sensed that both were of Foundation Establishment cultivation, her pupils contracted even more.

Her mind raced.

In her memory.

She hadn’t offended any Foundation Establishment cultivators.

She guessed the other party thought this was some kind of Cave Mansion relic and that’s why they barged in.

Madam Luoo forced herself to remain calm. She had painstakingly gathered the Foundation Establishment Pill and Three-Element Pill; she couldn’t mess up at such a critical moment:

"Two seniors, no...."

Before she finished speaking.

Madam Luoo felt that her body couldn’t move at all; even the mana within her couldn’t circulate.

Her pupils contracted.

Had she encountered Tribulation Cultivators?

No!

Could it be... could it be the Liang Family has come?

But back then, Grand Elder Liang clearly said only the three of them knew about this; according to her gathered information, Grand Elder Liang had already fallen. How could the Liang Family be aware?

Moreover.

For these past years.

She had almost constantly changed her residence, never staying in one place for more than half a year. If not for finding this stone gate peculiar and odd, and needing a place for closed cultivation, she wouldn’t have stayed here for so long.

She had never expected.

Such a secret place could also be found by others:

"Too careless. Knowing this, after obtaining the other Three-Element Pill, I should have left immediately."

However.

Fortunately, she had a backup plan.

If it really was the Liang Family, then if she died, that wretched girl Yongwei would have to be buried with her. Madam Luoo’s mouth twitched continuously. Though she couldn’t make any sound, she was sure from her lip movements that the two could understand her meaning.

Fu Molan searched around.

But did not find Yongwei’s trace.

Fu Chang’s pupils contracted. According to information, Madam Luoo intended to sell Yongwei to people from the Joy Sect. Had they arrived too late? Fu Changsheng spoke coldly:

"Molan, perform the Soul Searching Technique!"

Fu Molan, being a Puppet Master,

was already proficient in the Soul Summoning Technique, Soul Condensing Technique, and Soul Searching Technique.

She formed a seal with her right hand, as the sound of a spell echoed, and then her right palm suddenly struck Madam Luoo’s skull.

Fear surged in Madam Luoo’s eyes.

She was scared.

Generally speaking.

Qi Cultivators haven’t yet condensed their Divine Sense, making their souls extremely fragile. Being subjected to the Soul Searching Technique, they would almost certainly turn into fools, which is why the Divine Inquiry Talisman was invented.

"Woo woo woo"

Madam Luoo wanted to beg for mercy, but couldn’t make a sound.

She had endured in hiding for years.

Seeing Foundation Establishment within reach.

Who would’ve thought that just as she was about to succeed, things would go awry.

She was unwilling:

"Woo woo woo~"

Madam Luoo desperately squeezed out indistinct sounds from her throat:

"I can’t die, I can’t die...."

But her struggle quickly ceased, and her head drooped lifelessly.

After Fu Molan searched through,

her expression was very unpleasant.

Because in the opponent’s memory, she saw Madam Luoo using Yongwei as a slave, tormenting her. Upon realizing that Madam Luoo even forced Yongwei into recognition, her eyes blazed with anger to the utmost.

Her technique transformed.

Buzz!

A wisp of fresh blood shot out from Madam Luoo’s forehead.

Clearly, this was a wisp of her Life Soul used to control Yongwei.

After she finished searching Madam Luoo’s recent memories, her face immediately showed anxiousness: "Patriarch, Madam Luoo sent Yongwei to Taishan Marketplace’s Wangu Mountain yesterday for a mission, but in fact, it was to sell her to the Joy Sect’s people."

Hurried as they were.

They still arrived a step too late.

Though Fu Changsheng remained calm, having handed over someone the previous day, they shouldn’t have gone far, or perhaps they hadn’t left Wangu Mountain:

"Molan, you and Fourth Sister approach the southern and northern directions of Wangu Mountain, respectively. Remember, do not expose your trail, quickly."

"Yes, Patriarch!"

Molan put away her technique, her figure flickering as she rushed out of the Cave Mansion.

Fu Changsheng patted his storage bag, a flash of Dawn Light, and a peculiar mask suddenly fell on his face. Enveloped in a scarlet strange aura,

he waved his sword-point finger.

Madam Luoo’s head was instantly severed.
