From Family Fisherman to Water Virtue True Immortal Chapter 229 - 224: The Xu Family of Taicang

Li Quanqing listened quietly to the arrangents of Nine Sword True Man; his purpose was very clear.

He demanded that all Foundation Establishnt forces mobilize completely and thoroughly sweep through this sea territory.

Although it was highly likely that the Situ Family had already secretly relocated, there was a chance that they had left so clues behind, a tail to be caught.

Moreover, such thunderous thods could also eliminate those restless cultivators within the sea territory under the Sword Sect’s command.

After all, with the power transition within the Shuihua Sword Sect and the handover between old and new, and with Shuihua True Master having passed away silently, it was a ti rife with disturbances.

Those Golden Core forces on the verge of the Sword Sect were not entirely united; perhaps so were restless and eager to stir.

"This cleaning operation, the eradication within the sea territory, is a significant event. To be prepared for any contingency, our Sword Sect will naturally dispatch many disciples."

"Besides, I wish to establish two more Foundation Establishnt Families to fill the void left by the Situ Family’s fall, to ensure the stability and prosperity of the entire sea region."

"I wonder what all of you... think of this?"

At the end of his words, Nine Sword True Man clapped his hands, and imdiately two middle-aged cultivators walked out from behind the grand hall, both with strong cultivation, exuding an air of high authority.

"The Tai Cang Xu Family greets all fellow daoists."

One of them was a cultivator at the Foundation Establishnt Late Stage, with a handso and heroic appearance, carrying a treasured sword. His eye corners and brows strikingly resembled Shuihua True Master, who had just passed away.

Li Quanqing gave him a few glances; was this Golden Core True Master also surnad Xu? Could this be his descendant?

"Lingyun Mo Family also pays respects to all fellow daoists."

The other cultivator smiled kindly, his cultivation around the Foundation Establishnt Middle Stage, his stature sowhat robust, his voice as refreshing as a spring breeze.

Yet, the attention of the crowd inevitably turned to the Sect Master of Shuihua Sword Sect beside them, who also bore the surna Mo; could it be he hailed from this family as well?

"One a descendant of a perished Golden Core, the other from the clan of the current Sect Master; indeed, they’re both direct lineages of the Sword Sect..."

Li Quanqing had a clear understanding in his heart; the Li Family, with its position, had already thoroughly investigated this intelligence.

If it weren’t for Nine Sword True Man’s dedication to cultivation, leaving behind no blood heirs except for two or three disciples, perhaps they would need to create a third Foundation Establishnt Family.

"The orders from the Upper Sect True Master, we naturally obey without daring to defy."

As the lead representative, Li Quanqing naturally took the initiative, regardless of his true thoughts, at least presenting an extrely respectful deanor.

"Very well, these two families have only just been established and have ager foundations; thus, let the various young friends’ families redistribute so Second Rank islands to the Xu and Mo families."

Nine Sword True Man spoke very directly, hardly ever beating around the bush.

He was an ascetic cultivator, devoted to cultivation, with a naturally straightforward temperant. If it were not for these traits, he wouldn’t have been chosen to refine the Demon Core and undertake the heavy responsibility of guarding the Sect.

Swish, swish, swish!

In an instant, Li Quanqing felt a series of gazes turn towards him from behind, and at this mont, his fellow cultivators from great families naturally awaited his decision.

But what they probably didn’t expect was that Li Quanqing, with many cards in hand, couldn’t help but speak more assertively.

Standing straight, he spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Reporting to the True Master, our families need to support the cultivation of many clan mbers. Resources are greatly consud; even our own cultivation is barely sufficient, where would we find Spirit Islands to give away to so outsiders?"

His indifferent words echoed, and the whole grand hall imdiately fell silent enough to hear a pin drop, as everyone couldn’t help but widen their eyes in shock. This fellow dared to speak out!

"Outsiders? Where are there any outsiders!"

Nine Sword True Man’s half-closed pupils suddenly opened wide, as if dazzling bolts of lightning burst forth, illuminating the void, and nine treasured swords behind him clanged and resounded.

In his view, these so-called Foundation Establishnt Families were nothing more than pigs and dogs raised by the Sect, which should be taken and disposed of at will.

Now, he should be obediently kneeling down, offering up the island, dividing resources, and listening like a dog.

Compared to the others, the Xu and Mo families no doubt have a closer relationship with Nine Sword True Man, are more biased in their hearts, and want to seize resources for them, weakening the original noble families.

He hadn’t expected this brat from Green Jade Li Family to dare speak to him like this!

Nine Sword True Man really wanted to explode in anger, but ultimately, he forcefully held it back.

Now, the Shuihua Sword Sect is very weak, arguably in the most dangerous situation for thousands of years, with forr allies all attempting to bite off a piece of flesh from them.

The Sword Sect needs the support of these noble families and Foundation Establishnt Sects to continue occupying this sea area and maintain the status of the overlord.

Moreover, these Foundation Establishnt families are also likely to betray and defect to other Golden Core forces.

Not like the Wang Family of Tonghua Island, whose ancestors ca from the Biwu Sect, and now that Biwu Sect’s Sect Master has successfully broken through to Golden Core, he is unrivaled in reputation compared to the Sword Sect.

Thus, after careful consideration, Nine Sword True Man decided to bear with it.

He snorted, "A Second Rank Spirit Island won’t do, then use an ordinary First Rank Spirit Island. After all, both families still have to relocate many mortals and mundane kingdoms."

Li Quanqing knew that this was the Sword Sect’s limit, so after pondering for a mont, he nodded in agreent.

As he nodded, Xie Hongyue and the others felt the sa and promptly expressed their willingness to hand over so of their controlled islands.

"Gentlen, please follow , we will discuss the specific details of the handover next..."

Sensing that Nine Sword True Man was not in a good mood, the Sword Sect’s Sect Master imdiately took over the conversation and invited everyone out of the grand hall.

"Young friend is truly... like a newborn calf not afraid of tigers."

As they left the grand hall, the Sword Sect’s Sect Master looked at Li Quanqing, and couldn’t help but sigh.

Compared to the crafty Old Clan Chief Li Zongyao, this guy seed too young, as if he didn’t understand the need for flexibility.

Li Quanqing glanced at him, he couldn’t very well say that he was confident enough to go head-to-head with that Fake Pill in the grand hall.

Saying that would really be asking for death.

The Sword Sect’s Sect Master invited several cultivators from noble families into another grand hall, indeed, the so-called annihilation of the Situ Family remnants was not important at all.

Shuihua Sword Sect’s goal was still to push the two big Foundation Establishnt families to the front, in order to weaken the ever-growing strength of the noble families.

Naturally, Green Jade Li Family was targeted, and the more powerful Taicang Xu Family was stationed near their family’s territorial waters, eyeing them like a tiger pouncing on its prey.

"From now on, our family will have to be even more cautious!"

Li Quanmo sighed slightly; although he was sowhat unwilling to accept this, there was nothing he could do.

After all, they didn’t have a Golden Core True Master to protect them.

After giving away a dozen or so less important islands, Li Quanqing and his companion bid farewell and set off to return to their family.

Their journey back was very smooth, and it wasn’t long before they returned to the Qingyu Cave Heaven and inford the Old Clan Chief of the situation.

Li Zongyao naturally had no objections either, after all, it was just so islands.

The Sword Sect’s orders were passed down one by one, and the big families dispatched their clansn to sweep through the sea area, indeed scaring many rogue cultivators into silence and disappearance.

This turned out to be a good deed.

But what Li Family didn’t expect was, before they even finished handing over those islands, a big ss occurred.

Taicang Xu Family actually discovered a Spirit Stone Vein on a barren island!
