Chapter 845 - 402: Zhang Lingzong’s Roguish Friends! Enemies Gather Together

Chapter 845: Chapter 402: Zhang Lingzong’s Roguish Friends! Enemies Gather Together

After the Divine Fusion, having escaped from the tribulation of Great Night, Zhang Fan’s memories naturally returned.

He vaguely remembers that when he was very young, he lived in that old house in the old town of Yujing City, where an uncle often visited. He would always arrive in the middle of the night, never knocking, but jumping over the wall, causing chaos in the household.

Every time he came, Li Linglong would get up and cook noodles for him, always putting two eggs in the dish, so Zhang Fan would always call him Uncle Er Dan.

This Uncle Er Dan was Zhang Lingzong’s friend, but behind the scenes, Li Linglong didn’t like him very much because every time he came, Zhang Lingzong would go out with him, often gone for ten days to half a month.

In the deep of night, when Zhang Fan was asleep, the couple would quarrel over this.

"You Zhangs are always like this, making friends with some unsavory characters. Have you forgotten how your old man..."

"Talk about the issue, don’t drag everything onto us Zhangs..."

"That Ge fellow is not an upright person, always coming in the middle of the night, complaining about my craft, wanting the eggs to be soft-boiled. If he has the ability, he should do it himself... Poor choice in friends leads to disaster. You Zhangs have a habit that’s hard to change. I fear your son too might end up with some unsavory friends in the future."

"Is he not your son?"

Childhood memories, warm and glowing, floated in Zhang Fan’s mind as he looked at the approaching Ge Family Celestial Master, feeling a little dazed.

It turns out that Uncle Er Dan belonged to the Pure Yang Ge Family, and back then he had not yet attained the Celestial Master’s position.

"Ge Jue Form... this Ge Family Celestial Master has arrived too. Shouldn’t he be residing on Zhenwu Mountain?"

By now, sharp-eyed individuals recognized him; typically, figures of Celestial Master Level would be housed at Zhenwu Mountain, and no one expected Ge Jue Form to appear here.

It’s known that normally, a Pure Yang Noble Family would have two Celestial Masters in one sect, one from the older generation and the other trained from the young and middle generation.

Ge Jue Form, now under sixty years old, is virtually the pillar of the Ge Family for the future. Once he picks out promising talents from the younger generation and trains them into Celestial Masters, he will be the most senior figure in the Ge Family.

In fact, the tradition of Pure Yang Noble Families often follows this path.

Like the Qiu Family, they too had two Celestial Masters, but the young and middle-generation representative, Qiu Shangqing, died in Qin Ancient Town, killed by Zhang Tianyang.

This was quite perilous. If the surviving Elder Celestial Master of the Qiu Family can’t train a new Celestial Master before he transcends, their family will lack a Celestial Master to oversee the clan for an extended period.

For a Pure Yang Noble Family, this is a very dangerous signal, because even if they possess Pure Yang Treasures, without Celestial Master Level cultivation they cannot be activated.

Celestial Masters, whether for sects or families, are akin to nuclear weapons. With a Celestial Master, a sect is truly considered a major clan.

For this reason, after Qiu Shangqing’s death, despite sealing the news from outsiders, the Qiu Family became more low-key, clearly worried internally.

Because the death of a young and middle-generation Celestial Master would require major adjustments and changes to the clan’s development direction and planning for the next fifty years.

"Uncle Xing!"

Ge Fuyao was the first to go up and bow respectfully; she too did not expect Ge Jue Form to appear here. By rights, he should have arrived earlier and been at Zhenwu Mountain.

"Master!"

Ge Chang’an restrained his aura too and walked over.

In the Ge Family, Ge Jue Form was not only his uncle but also his mentor in cultivation.

"Guests are guests, there’s no reason to fight in someone else’s home," Ge Jue Form spoke up, his voice clear and giving a refreshing feeling.

"But..." Ge Fuyao stared at Ge Shuangxiu and Zhang Fan, still wanting to argue.

"Master’s lesson is right; I was being reckless."

Ge Chang’an signaled with his eyes and hurriedly stopped the discourteous Ge Fuyao.

When a Celestial Master speaks, it’s final; moreover, Ge Jue Form’s high status in the Ge Family is almost like the face of the family. Such a figure cannot be refuted publicly, no matter how valid your reasons.

"Ge Shuangxiu."

At this time, Ge Jue Form turned to Ge Shuangxiu.

"Uncle Xing."

Even Ge Shuangxiu had to curb his arrogance and respectfully stepped forward to bow before the Celestial Master.

"After all, you’re of the Ge Family. No matter what happened before, I can make the decision on behalf of the clan to let bygones be bygones," Ge Jue Form said solemnly.

"But from now on... don’t forget, you are still a Ge."

"I understand," Ge Shuangxiu hesitated slightly, then nodded.

Ge Jue Form’s meaning was clear; he cherished talent and didn’t want to hold grudges. In his eyes, Ge Shuangxiu’s aptitude and talent were not beneath Ge Chang’an, possessing the potential to be a Celestial Master, and if well-nurtured, would be the Ge Family’s blessing.

Because of this, he didn’t want past grievances to cause animosity and enmity among them.

Standing at Ge Jue Form’s height, his vision covers not only the present but the entire picture, the whole clan, the future, the inheritance!

However...

Past actions can be overlooked, but since the Ge Family afforded you the opportunity, you must know how to progress and retreat, and from now on be responsible for your actions and words, otherwise...

"When this matter is settled, return to the clan. No one will trouble you." Ge Jue Form looked at Ge Shuangxiu, his voice gentle yet carrying unquestionable authority.
