Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 1521 - 948: Jie Dan Spirit Object, Golden Core Thunder Tribulation

"Luo Fengxia of the Luo family greets the senior!" Luo Fengxia introduced himself with a look of joy.

Yang Zhenshan nodded nonchalantly and turned his gaze to the two unknown Foundation Establishment cultivators.

"It’s your turn to introduce yourselves!"

"If you don’t have any significant background, don’t blame me for being ruthless!"

The two Foundation Establishment cultivators exchanged a glance and then simultaneously attacked Yang Zhenshan.

A burst of flame surged towards Yang Zhenshan’s face, followed by a violent wind sweeping through the flames, engulfing Yang Zhenshan in a fiery storm in an instant.

Yang Zhenshan’s expression turned grim.

Damn it!

They didn’t even introduce themselves before launching a deadly attack.

The Divine Wood Treasure Cauldron appeared above his head, its cyan magic barrier descended, blocking the raging flames.

These two not only attacked him but also began to rescue their companions.

After all, they were mid-stage Foundation Establishment with enough cultivation to put up some resistance, even if Yang Zhenshan could suppress them.

Amidst the entwining winds and flames, the cage created by Yang Zhenshan transformed into a sea of fire.

Since these two were so unceremonious, Yang Zhenshan had no reservations.

He clasped his hands together, his spiritual sense spread out, and the vines and Soul Suppressing Locks intertwined, strangling. Within a breath, a dozen Qi Refinement Realm cultivators and two Foundation Establishment cultivators were pierced by the vines and turned into corpses.

Simultaneously, three other Foundation Establishment cultivators escaped from his cage, vanishing into the vast wilderness in the blink of an eye.

The technique "Seal the Heavens and Earth" looked formidable, but its flaw was obvious: its attacks were not focused, and the strength of the cage was relatively weak, sufficient for Foundation Establishment cultivators to break through and escape.

Of course, its advantage was also apparent: it could seal off a large area, granting Yang Zhenshan tremendous control over the battlefield.

When facing weaker enemies, Yang Zhenshan could conclude the battle in no time.

Just like now, in just a few breaths, Yang Zhenshan slew two Foundation Establishment cultivators and over ten Qi Refinement cultivators.

The battle ended, and the Seven Treasures Soul Suppressing Tower and Divine Wood Treasure Cauldron returned to Yang Zhenshan’s Sea of Consciousness and Dantian, with the Soul Suppressing Locks disappearing and the vines turning illusory.

Yang Zhenshan stood with his hands behind his back, looking towards the direction where the three Foundation Establishment cultivators escaped, his brow slightly furrowed.

Unwilling to reveal their affiliations, this implied the other party wanted to conceal their identity.

Perhaps they didn’t want to expose their assault on the Luo family, or they might inherently be a hidden force.

If it was the former, it might not be a significant threat, as their fear of the Luo family indicated their strength was not overwhelming.

But if it was the latter, it could be a massive issue.

The Luo family was not an ordinary power and could often represent the stance of the White Cloud Dao.

Targeting the Luo family could equate to targeting the White Cloud Dao.

A hidden force attempting to confront the White Cloud Dao would undoubtedly harbor significant danger.

"Luo Fengxia of the Luo family greets the senior, and thanks you for saving my life!"

The battle ended, and Luo Fengxia approached Yang Zhenshan, bowing in gratitude.

Yang Zhenshan snapped back to reality, "It was just a small effort, no need for formalities! Is Luo Cheng your...?"

"He is my great-grandfather!" Luo Fengxia’s pale face showed a hint of pride, "I have yet to ask the senior’s esteemed name!"

"Yang Zhenshan, Eighth-Rank Guest Elder of the Ten Thousand Treasures Store, I have met your great-grandfather a few times!" Yang Zhenshan smiled.

This favor naturally couldn’t be credited to Luo Fengxia but to Luo Cheng, who was a top-notch Second-Order Array Master in White Cloud Immortal City.

Though Array Masters weren’t as highly sought after as Alchemists, having a good rapport with a formidable Array Master certainly brought advantages.

"So it’s Senior Yang! Thank you, Senior Yang!" Luo Fengxia bowed in gratitude again.

"Alright, no need for more pleasantries, you’re injured, so focus on healing!" said Yang Zhenshan.

After a few courteous exchanges, Luo Fengxia found a place to heal, as the remaining members of the Luo family began to tidy up the battlefield.

Though Yang Zhenshan assisted, the Luo family still suffered considerable losses.

From a team of over ten, only six remained, with two seriously injured and unconscious.

As the Luo family members cleaned the battlefield, Yang Zhenshan returned to the Jade Cloud Boat, quietly waiting.

After about half an incense stick of time, the battlefield was cleared, and the Luo family’s flying boat was completely ruined. Fortunately, not many were left, so Yang Zhenshan allowed them onto his Jade Cloud Boat.

The Yun Ge pierced through the clouds once again, heading towards White Cloud Immortal City.

Yang Zhenshan and Luo Fengxia sat in the cabin, discussing the recent events.

"Who were those people?"

Yang Zhenshan asked casually.

Luo Fengxia slightly shook his head, "I don’t know, I don’t recognize them!"

"Then why did they attack you?" Yang Zhenshan inquired.

Luo Fengxia’s brow furrowed, "This time, we were headed to Jade Valley. Our Luo family has some businesses there, and I regularly patrol them every one or two years. This time, nothing unusual happened during the patrol, nor did we acquire anything special!"

Yang Zhenshan nodded, indicating that the attack wasn’t motivated by events in Jade Valley, nor a case of killing for treasure.

Even if Luo Fengxia returned from Jade Valley with many Spirit Stones and resources, these ordinary resources wouldn’t justify mobilizing five Foundation Establishment cultivators against them.

"As for the situation in White Cloud Immortal City, I can’t think of anyone who would harbor a killing intent against me!" Luo Fengxia was equally perplexed, as it was supposedly a routine mission that unexpectedly turned into an ambush.
