Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 1529 - 951: Jian Changhe and Situ Yuan (3)

"I don’t know, but I can sense it!" Situ Yuan reluctantly explained.

Yang Zhenshan suddenly realized that this small white jade sword was also a magic artifact. Although there were many restrictions on it, and its aura was weak, it could still be sensed if one paid close attention.

"The Mountain Master wants to see you, senior!"

Situ Yuan, holding the small white jade sword, suddenly asked, "Do you know what this is?"

"I don’t know, senior!"

Yang Zhenshan looked at the small white jade sword curiously. He had checked it before, and it was just a very ordinary magic artifact, not even a magical treasure.

"Within it is a strand of Sword Qi left by Heavenly Sword True Monarch!"

Situ Yuan pointed a withered finger at the small sword, and immediately a sharp aura spread throughout the room, making Yang Zhenshan’s scalp tingle.

He hadn’t noticed that there was actually a strand of Sword Qi hidden within this small sword!

"What does he want?" Situ Yuan asked.

"The Mountain Master wants to see you, senior!" Yang Zhenshan repeated.

Situ Yuan fell silent for a long time before saying, "Then bring him here!"

"Yes!"

Yang Zhenshan replied respectfully.

In front of this senior, he had no confidence whatsoever, always feeling that this person was unfathomable.

...

After leaving the treasure house, Yang Zhenshan returned to the tavern, found Jian Changhe, and brought him to the Ten Thousand Treasures Store.

Walking in the Ten Thousand Treasures Store, Yang Zhenshan asked, "Mountain Master, is there Sword Qi left by Heavenly Sword True Monarch in the sword?"

Jian Changhe nodded slightly, "It was left before the True Monarch ascended."

"Is that Sword Qi very powerful?" Yang Zhenshan asked again.

Jian Changhe smiled, "Anything left by the True Monarch is naturally very powerful!"

As he said this, his eyes were filled with pride.

That was Sword Qi left by Heavenly Sword True Monarch, containing the Sword Intent of Heavenly Sword True Monarch. Even a trace of it holds a power that ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators cannot withstand.

Yang Zhenshan continued to ask, "How does the Mountain Master know Situ Yuan?"

"I don’t know him, but the True Monarch once helped his grandmaster! When the True Monarch was alive, the Ten Thousand Treasures Store also had a branch in the Sea of Spirit, and the person in charge of the Sea of Spirit’s Ten Thousand Treasures Store at that time was his grandmaster!"

"After his grandmaster ascended, his master also stayed in the Sea of Spirit’s Ten Thousand Treasures Store for a while, but when the True Monarch’s lifespan was nearing its end, the True Monarch had the Ten Thousand Treasures Store move away!"

"Besides, Situ Yuan comes from the Situ family!"

"Which Situ family?" Yang Zhenshan was somewhat puzzled.

"The Situ family in the Sea of Spirit!" Jian Changhe said.

Yang Zhenshan was shocked, the Situ family in the Sea of Spirit?

Could the Situ family have such a relationship?

Years ago, the Yang family had some conflicts with this Situ family, and it was Yang Zhenshan who suppressed the Situ family using the power of the Illusion Moon Sect.

If the Situ family had such a relationship, how could they just be a Martial Arts Family?

Jian Changhe explained with a smile, "Although Situ Yuan is from the Situ family, he was originally just a collateral descendant of the Situ family, and it was by a stroke of luck that he stepped onto the path of immortality!"

"The Situ family doesn’t even know they have such an ancestor."

Yang Zhenshan realized, "So he doesn’t want to help his family?"

"He’s only a collateral relative; how much affection can he have for the family? Besides, he was very young when he left the Situ family." Jian Changhe said.

Yang Zhenshan nodded slightly, understanding the relationship between Situ Yuan and the Situ family.

There are blood ties, but no substantial connection.

This is actually a common problem among many Families. The larger the family, the harder it is to maintain fairness and justice.

The direct line usually occupies most of the family’s resources, while the collateral lines will gradually decline. The longer the time, the weaker the feelings of the collateral lines for the direct lineage.

If the collateral line still needs to rely on the direct lineage to survive, then the family has some cohesion, but if the collateral line can’t rely on the direct lineage, they have little loyalty to it.

The family bloodline remains, but their connections will gradually sever.

Situ Yuan probably doesn’t want to recognize a bunch of distant relatives, nor does he want to take care of a group of poor relatives.
