"Ancestor, my great-grandson is confused about something, and I would like to ask my ancestor to clarify it!"

Xu Zhiyu bowed to his grandfather and said.

"Tell me, you will know this sooner or later." Xu Deming nodded kindly.

"According to what you just said, the mastermind behind these things is Baiyi Sect, right?"

"Not bad!"

"But these are just your inferences, I'm afraid they are not reliable, right?" Xu Zhiyu still didn't believe it.

"Yu'er, why are you talking to the ancestor? Why don't you admit your mistake!" Xu Shengsheng said in surprise and anger when he saw his grandson questioning the ancestor.

"Shengsheng, don't interrupt." Xu Deming interrupted Xu Shengsheng, and then replied, "It's not wrong for you to think so. I couldn't believe it at first. But if this happened to my Xu family, it could also be a coincidence. To explain, but no matter it is the Wei family, the Bai family or the Li family, they have all had the same experience in the past few hundred years, so I am afraid this cannot be explained by coincidence!"

"My grandson still doesn't understand. Whether it's our family or several other families, it's just a foundation-building family. Even if someone manages to break through to the Zi Mansion, they are just a slightly bigger ant to the Baiyi Sect."

"You must know that there are two people in the world who know the Golden Pill of Baiyi Sect. Among them, the sect leader is a late-stage Jindan monk. There are dozens of people in the Purple Mansion under the sect and nearly a thousand foundations. They govern one mansion and ten counties. There are also half a hundred affiliated families. How could such a behemoth suppress small families like us like this?"

"This is a good question. The Baiyi Sect has been taking root in Jinzhou Prefecture for thousands of years. Before that, it was not just here. The three prefectures in the south of Yongzhou were all occupied by monsters and their territory. At that time, The Nascent Soul Sect in Yongzhou, the Lingxiao Sect, felt that the monsters were powerful, so they called on their subordinates to march to the south of Yongzhou, and fought for a hundred years before capturing these places."

"After the war, rewards will be given based on merit. Because Baiyi Sect performed well in this human-monster war, the Lingxiao Sect was assigned to the Jincheng Mansion and took charge of this mansion."

"When Baiyimen first started to govern Jincheng Mansion, they felt that they were short of manpower, and the monsters were counterattacking, so they were often very busy. So they issued rewards widely and called on casual cultivators to come to the front line and establish families as a barrier to consolidate their rule. So at that time Countless cultivators came here to establish sects, but most of them established families. This trick really worked. With the establishment of these foundation-building families, the counterattacks of the monsters were suppressed."

"Slowly, after the high-level monsters saw that such aimless attacks were ineffective, they led the monsters to retreat and entered the Hengduan Mountains. However, they would launch a wave of monsters every two hundred years in the hope of taking back Former territory.”

"When the birds are gone, a good bow is hidden; when a cunning rabbit is dead, the lackeys are cooked. After seeing that the situation calmed down, Baiyimen began to see these families as an eyesore, and began to suppress them overtly and covertly."

"But ancestor, if the Zifu family exists, wouldn't it be better to resist the monsters? Why would you attack the top genius in the foundation-building family under your command?" Xu Zhiyu interjected and asked, Xu Shengsheng was just the old god. Sitting there.

"This is because the beast tide that has occurred in the past thousand years has become weaker and weaker. At the beginning, there were fifth-level monsters leading the group, which were equivalent to the Nascent Soul stage monks of the human race when they attacked the human territory! Later, it was slowly changed to The fourth-level monster led the team. The leader of the last monster wave was actually a monster equivalent to the ninth level of the human Purple Mansion. The Baiyi Sect easily blocked this monster wave without any effort."

"So Baiyi Sect believes that we, the foundation-building families on the front line, do not need to be too strong. Because when the beast tide comes, our own sects will send high-level monks to help resist it."

"Besides, the emergence of a Zifu family may not mean anything. But if there is a first one, there will be a second one, and slowly there will be more and more. The resources in the world of immortality are just that, and some people get more. It is inevitable that other people will get less. So in order to maintain their rule, it is not difficult to understand that the Baiyi Sect does such despicable things!" After Xu Deming finished speaking, he looked at Xu Zhiyu, the descendant, to see what he was doing. reaction.

"My great-grandson still has one thing that I don't understand. We don't have the Zifu family in Taoshui County, but don't we have the Zifu family in Wuyang and Anding counties? Are we the ones who gave birth to them?" Xu Zhiyu didn't notice that his ancestor was looking at him. Instead, he asked after thinking about it.

"This has to be said about the cunningness of Baiyimen. Although it is the master of our Jincheng Mansion, we are the front line of the human-monster battlefield after all. It is unreasonable if there is no Zifu family on the front line, so they will support some A disciple within the sect becomes the patriarch of the Zifu family."

"For example, when a child from the Foundation Establishment family is sent to Baiyi Sect to become a disciple, and breaks through the Zi Mansion under the training of the sect, Baiyi Sect will let this sect member serve as the patriarch of the family, but this is just in name. That’s it! This disciple will continue to practice in the sect and will not be allowed to return to the family unless something happens."

"So, in fact, the fate of the family is limited in this way, and it cannot break through the existing pattern?" Xu Zhiyu asked in a hoarse voice as if his heart was pressed with iron.

Xu Deming and Xu Shengsheng glanced at the jade slip at the same time, and then smiled at each other. Xu Deming said:

"That was originally the case, but things took a turn for the worse not long ago."

"Oh, what's the turning point?" "Lingxiao Sect sent envoys to inspect various places ten years ago because of the approaching beast tide. They found that the defense strength of our Jincheng Mansion was much weaker than that of the other two mansions. This was mainly reflected in the battle lines. The strength of the Frontier Foundation Building Family is too weak to resist the monster beasts well. You must know that the beast tide is coming in twenty years. The envoy reported the matter after returning to the sect. Lingxiao Sect put pressure on Baiyi Sect, Let them solve the hidden dangers, otherwise they will be severely punished! For this reason, Lingxiao Sect also gave some Ziyang Pills to Baiyi Sect to help improve the level of defense."

"Oh, so the ancestor has a chance to get this Ziyang Pill and break through the Zifu? Wouldn't that be a great thing?" Xu Zhiyu finally heard the good news. The expression on his face also changed from gloomy to sunny, and his mood became happy.

"It's not that simple. Even so, Baiyi Sect has its own plan. These Ziyang Pills are intended to win people's hearts. Five of the ten counties in our Jincheng Prefecture are bordered by monsters. Baiyi in these counties We plan to each take out a Ziyang Pill to distribute."

"But these elixirs are not free. The first thing is to show allegiance to Baiyi Sect. At the same time, this Ziyang elixir is loaned to them. From now on, they will need a lot of spiritual stones every year. If someone is lucky enough to enter the Zifu realm, they will also I want to become a guest elder of Baiyi Sect. Although my freedom will not be restricted too much, I will still be bound by it."

Xu Zhiyu thought: "That's okay! Is it because the family can't lose face?"

It turns out that he thought too much! Just listen to the ancestor continue to preach:

"If this is the case, no family will be unmoved, but the quota in our county has already been determined by the Wei family!"

"Why is this? Shouldn't something as precious as Ziyang Pill be put up for auction, and the highest bidder gets it?" Xu Zhiyu did not expect that there was a secret operation.

"There is a son of the Wei family who successfully established his foundation after joining the Baiyi Sect. He also became a disciple of the elder of the sect Zifu and became a disciple. Relying on this relationship, the Wei family was the first to get this opportunity!" The ancestor said with a sigh.

"This Baiyi Sect is so abominable! Aren't you afraid that someone will report it to Lingxiao Sect?" Xu Zhiyu was furious and incompetent.

"How to sue, what to sue for? They didn't withhold the Purple Spirit Pill? As for who to give it to, do you think they care? As long as the level of defense is improved!"

"However, in order to prevent our remaining families from slacking off in their work, Baiyi Sect still provided a certain amount of compensation, which is a Purple Qi Talisman for each family."

"Oh, what is this Purple Qi Talisman?" Xu Zhiyu only knew that the Purple Yang Pill was an auxiliary elixir for building a foundation and breaking through the Zi Mansion. But Xu Zhiyu didn't know about this Purple Qi Talisman.

"You only need to know that this thing is also a thing that assists the foundation-building monks to break through the Zi Mansion! With this "Fire Flame Soul Control Technique" and the Purple Qi Talisman, I am 25% sure that I can do it. Breakthrough to the Zifu stage!"

"Hey, what a pity! If that Ziyang Pill fell into the hands of our family and ancestors took it, then your chance of breaking through the Zifu would be 50%, right?" Xu Shengsheng sighed after hearing what the ancestors said. . He is still worried about the fact that the Ziyang Pill did not fall into the hands of the family.

"Okay, there's no need to talk about what you didn't get! Let's talk about Zhiyu! This kid has made such a contribution this time, how do you want to reward him?" Xu Deming said to those who were still struggling with the ownership of Ziyang Pill. Xu Shengsheng said.

"It all depends on the ancestor, and my nephew has no objection." Xu Shengsheng calmed down and replied.

At this time, Xu Zhiyu could only keep silent, his eyes looked at his nose, and his nose looked at his heart, his whole body motionless. He seemed indifferent to this matter, but in fact his ears were always listening carefully.

"Well, as his grandfather, it's really not up to you to decide this matter. Then I will make the decision and decide that Xu Zhiyu will be the foundation-building seed of the 'Zhi' generation. If the family gets the foundation-building pill, they have the priority to take it. . And there is no need to pay any more family contribution points.”

"Silly boy, why are you standing there? Why don't you thank me quickly?"

Xu Zhiyu was so happy when he heard what his ancestor said about taking the Foundation Establishment Pill first.

I just thanked my ancestor in a daze, and I don’t know what happened after that. It wasn't until he followed his grandfather out of the ancestor's gate that he gradually recovered.
