Cultivation of Immortals: The Rise of the Family

Chapter 38 Conspiracy
"Old Ancestor, now that our family is powerful, should we swallow the Li family first?"

Chu Batian said that his first target was the Li family, one of the five major families in Yangbo City.

Chu Xinghe murmured when he heard the words, he quickly shook his head and said:

"The ancestor of the Li family was seriously injured before, but now he has come back strongly. I can't figure out his details. Why don't we let the Li family go and deal with other small families!".

The forces in Yangbo City are complex. Apart from the five relatively large families of Li Family, Chu Family, Feng Family, Liu Family, and Ye Family, there are also many small monk families.

Some families have only a few or a dozen monks, and their sphere of influence is only a few villages.

Some of these forces are attached to the five major families.

Just like the Wang family, they are a small family attached to the Li family.

There are also many small families who survive in the cracks and are unwilling to join any big family.

These small families unite together, and the five major families restrain each other. No one wants to see the other party annex these small families, so the small families can survive.

Attaching to the big family seems to be stable, but in fact it has become the puppet of the other party.

All the initiative is in the hands of the big family.

Equal marriage families like the Li family and the Wang family are rare.

They have been married for a long time, have been related by marriage for hundreds of years, and completely trust each other, so they are slightly equal, not vassals.

It is difficult for other families to have such trust among each other, so they can only form a vassal relationship.

"Old Ancestor, Li Hu is the only one in the Li family to support the scene. They are the weakest of the five major families. If they swallow the Li family, we will gain the greatest benefit!"

Of course Chu Batian knew that there would be certain risks in destroying the Li family, but the risks and rewards were equal.

The Li family is powerful, and they will gain a lot after they are wiped out.

Chu Xinghe looked at Chu Batian, shook his head again and said:
"You only see the benefits, but you don't consider the overall situation. If we destroy the Li family, Li Hu will join forces with the other three major families to fight us to the death. At that time, the other three old monsters will also be happy to attack us !”.

This made Chu Batian startled. If it were him, after the family was destroyed, he would definitely join other monks to take revenge on the enemy at all costs.

This made Chu Batian speechless for a while, he had just broken through and his strength had greatly increased, so he was obviously a little arrogant.

"A family with foundation-building monks cannot be forced to death. You must know that injured beasts are the most dangerous!"

Chu Xinghe understood very well that if the Li family was completely wiped out, Li Hu, who had no scruples, would be able to do anything.

And the most important thing was that their Chu family didn't have the means to kill Li Hu.

The Foundation Establishment family is not something they can handle right now.

Before the big families forced the Li family to hand over the shop in Yangbo City, they saw Li Hu was seriously injured and dying.

Now that Li Hu is back, not only does he show no sign of defeat, but he is fierce, which makes Chu Xinghe dare not act rashly.

"Let's attack the small family first, wait for me to break through the Jindan realm, and then sweep the entire Yangbo City!"

Chu Xinghe made a plan. His current strength has already reached the Great Consummation of the Foundation Establishment Realm. Within ten years, he will definitely hit the Golden Core Realm.

Once Chu Xinghe succeeds in attacking the Golden Core Realm, he will take over the entire Yangbo City without any effort.

"Old Ancestor, among the small families, which one shall we face first?"

Chu Batian quickly adjusted his mentality, and he was able to enter the early stage of foundation building before the age of 50. He naturally has something special.

Chu Xinghe obviously had a plan for this, he said directly:
"Among the small families, the Xu family is the weakest. There are only six qi-training monks. As long as you show your strength and lure you with benefits and future plans, they dare not refuse!".

This is the best way to serve under the imperial court.

Now that the Chu family already has two Foundation Establishment monks, their future is indeed bright.

Although the Xu family is not popular, as long as it is merged into the Chu family, it will be a good start. In the future, after they have integrated all the small families, they can gradually plan for the other four major families.

After the two discussed it, they immediately acted secretly.

In Yangbo City, with the breakthrough of Chu Batian's strength, it is obvious that there will be another bloody storm.

Decades ago, the four major families persecuted the Li family. At that time, there were constant killings in Yangbo City.

It has only been peaceful for a while now, and the fighting will start again.

The Chu family is determined to dominate Yangbo City. At this moment, on Changbai Island thousands of miles away, Mo Wujiang, the remnant of the black shark robber, is secretly communicating with the head of a monk family.

Changbai Island is a medium-sized island among the twelve small islands in Ruchuan Prefecture.

Huangyan Island is just a small island in Liuchuan Prefecture. There are only nine counties on the island, while Changbai Island has 46 cities, and its area is ten times that of Huangyan Island.

As for Liuyan Island, the largest in Liuchuan Prefecture, there are hundreds of cities in it, so it can be called a country.

In the Ye family mansion, the patriarch Ye Chen secretly received the remnants of the black shark robbers and the sea wolf Mo Wujiang.

"Patriarch, the Black Shark Pirates that we worked so hard to cultivate were uprooted by the five major families of Yangbo City. We can't just let it go!"

Mo Wujiang's face was full of annoyance, and the Black Shark Pirates were probably the power secretly cultivated by the Ye family.

As the Jindan family, they manipulated the Black Shark Pirates for nothing more than killing people, stealing property.

Ye Chen nodded lightly, he was not surprised that the Black Shark Pirates were wiped out.

"You continue to secretly recruit some casual cultivators, and when your strength grows, continue to harass the monk families on Huangyan Island. At that time, I will help you deal with the five patriarchs of Yangbo City!"

Ye Chen is already at the peak strength of the Foundation Establishment Realm, and he is about to accumulate strength to attack the Gold Core Realm, and has no plans to go out in the near future.

"Use this bottle of Gathering Spirit Pill, and improve your own strength as much as possible!"

Ye Chen took out a jade bottle, which contained twelve spirit-gathering pills.

This second-order elixir is an upgraded version of the first-order Qi Gathering Pill, suitable for foundation-building monks to take.

In Yangbo City, it is very difficult to buy this kind of elixir.

Only on medium-sized islands like Changbai Island, there are second-order spirit gathering pills for sale.

"Thank you patriarch!"

Mo Wujiang took the Juling Pill respectfully, his face was full of joy.

A second-order spirit-gathering pill is worth six low-grade spirit stones, and this bottle is equivalent to 72 spirit stones.

"Okay, don't go in and out of Ye's house frequently, collect some casual practitioners in the future, and send your cronies and subordinates to deliver news."

Ye Chen sent Mo Wujiang to leave. The fact that they formed the Black Shark Pirates secretly is not visible at all, and so far no outsiders know about it.

Mo Wujiang left Changbai Island and secretly returned to Yangbo City, planning to continue to recruit casual cultivators and harass the five major families.

For a time, Yangbo City was troubled by internal and external troubles, and many families were not aware of the coming danger.
