Chapter 522: Chapter 274: The Traitors [Subscribe Requested]

The Zhou Family added another Purple Mansion Cultivator.

When the news of Zhou Daoquan’s successful opening of the Purple Mansion spread with the wide distribution of invitations from the Zhou Family, it brought joy to so and sorrow to others.

Families like Wang Family of Hongyao Valley and Sun Family of Golden Maple Ridge, who had deep ties with the Zhou Family, were indeed very envious, but they were mostly happy and pleased.

After all, the Zhou Family had always been honorable in its dealings, and the stronger the Zhou Family was, the more secure these allied families felt.

However, those families with little to no relationship with the Zhou Family, or even those who bore grudges, were deeply worried and even regretful when they heard the news.

If they had known how impressive the potential of the Zhou Family was, they would have tried to form a good relationship, at the very least, they should not have beco enemies!

...

But the very reason that giving help in a crisis is seen as precious is that there are very few who would do such a thing.

The Zhou Family had now erged from its difficulties and was ushering in its spring.

Now, to try to form a good relationship with the Zhou Family would be rely gilding the lily.

Despite that, there were still many powers who decided to prepare lavish gifts to add luster to this grand event for the Zhou Family.

Gilding the lily might not necessarily be rembered by people, but at least it leaves an impression.

If there’s sothing to ask of the Zhou Family in the future, this could count as a piece of goodwill.

And if one couldn’t even manage to do this small favor, then in the future, should they ask for help, they might find there’s nowhere to turn.

On the day the celebration started, lanterns and colorful banners adorned the entrance of Zhou Family Mountain, with joyous red ribbons fluttering from tree to tree, creating an exceptionally eye-catching sight.

The Zhou Family had not been this lively in a very long ti.

In order to make all the clan mbers share in the excitent and joy, Zhou Chun even used the family’s public funds to give each clan mber twenty Spirit Coins as a red packet.

With this unexpected windfall thanks to the celebration of Zhou Daoquan’s Purple Mansion, the ordinary Zhou Family Cultivators were naturally very pleased.

They carried out the family’s arrangents for the celebration with smiles plastered all over their faces.

As Wang Zhixiong, representing the Wang Family of Hongyao Valley, arrived at the Zhou Family, he looked at the smiles on the faces of the Zhou Family Cultivators welcoming the guests and felt deep envy in his heart.

These sincere smiles, he had not seen on the faces of his own clan mbers for a long ti.

Ever since the southern campaign resulted in the loss of several Foundation Establishnt Elders, and the recent Beast Tide claid dozens of clan mbers, none of the remaining mbers of the Wang Family had truly smiled since.

Over the past few years, with the help of the Foundation Establishnt Pills exchanged for Battle rits, two people in the Wang Family had succeeded in Foundation Establishnt, but aside from those two, it was hard for the other clan mbers to genuinely feel happy.

Wang Zhixiong had thought that only ti could heal those clan mbers’ wounds and allow them to co out of the gloom.

But now, it seed there might be other ways.

“Clan Leader of Wang Family, Wang Zhixiong, presents a Spirit Ginseng as a tribute, congratulating Elder Zhou Daoquan on the successful opening of the Purple Mansion, wishing him longevity and good fortune.”

Atop Pagoda Peak, Wang Zhixiong respectfully addressed Zhou Daoquan, offering his congratulatory gift with solemnity.

“Taoist Friend Wang is too polite. The Wang Family and our Zhou Family share a bond ford in adversities. Your presence here is an honor for , and there is no need for such a generous gift!”

Zhou Daoquan opened the gift box, looked inside, and was taken aback for a mont, quickly rising to return the polite gesture with a bow.

The Spirit Ginseng that Wang Zhixiong had presented was no ordinary one; it was a rare six-hundred-year-old Red Blood Ginseng.

This Red Blood Ginseng was a powerful replenishing Spiritual dicine; a six-hundred-year-old specin could greatly enhance Essence Energy and was an excellent healing herb.

To be honest, given the relationship between the Wang Family and the Zhou Family, Wang Zhixiong really didn’t need to go to such lengths to prepare such an extravagant gift.

However, since the gift was given, Zhou Daoquan certainly had no reason to refuse it and could only accept it with gratitude.

And Wang Zhixiong certainly wasn’t the first to present such a lavish gift.

For this Purple Mansion celebration, the Zhou Family had sent out invitations to most of the Cultivation families in Lanzhou, and they had even sent a special invitation to the Su Family of Jiangzhou.

In such a widespread distribution of invitations, many powers receiving an invitation from the Zhou Family for the first ti also prepared generous gifts to bring along.

So, by the ti the celebration started, Zhou Chun tallied up and found that there were as many as seventeen Cultivation families who had arrived at Zhou Family Mountain to attend the Purple Mansion celebration.

And he rembered that a total of twenty-one invitations had been sent out.

This ant that only four families had not sent representatives to attend.

Zhou Chun also took note of these four families who did not send anyone.

This indeed proved the old saying that while those who give gifts may not necessarily be rembered by the host, those who do not give gifts are definitely rembered.

When the appointed ti neared, Zhou Chun stepped forward, faced the seated guests and clan mbers, clasped his hands together, and began to lead the speech, “Distinguished guests, fellow clan mbers, today we gather here to celebrate the significant progress of Elder Zhou Daoquan, as he has opened his Purple Mansion.”

“Elder Zhou Daoquan is a ritorious veteran of our Zhou Family, having made significant contributions to the clan on several occasions. He is a person of high principles and generosity, always willing to support the younger generation, and has always been deeply respected and appreciated by us, the junior Cultivators.”

“Today is a joyous day for Elder Zhou Daoquan and for our Zhou Family. As the Clan Leader of the Zhou Family, I stand here on behalf of myself and the family, wishing Elder Daoquan smooth travels on his path and great fortune and prosperity.”

After finishing, he bowed towards Zhou Daoquan, who was sitting at the head of the gathering, and offered his congratulations.
