Chapter 98: Clan Rules

[Deduction Complete!]
[You have gained a new ability from this deduction: Keen Perception!]
Keen Perception: You can easily detect the malice of others.
Noah Ji was astonished, not expecting to die so quickly, yet still gain a new ability.
Not bad at all!
However, Noah didn’t plan to use the remaining deduction points.
Single deduction carries significant risks without retaining one’s abilities. Better to save them for a multi-deduction next ti.
To open up the clan’s situation now, it would take more than a mont; he needed to bide his ti.
…
“Heh, ha!”
Three days later, the sound of fists echoed in the clan square.
Looking around, many of the clan’s warriors had gathered here to practice combat skills.
Ten ters away from the square, snowflakes were falling, though much less than a few days ago.
However, the continuous snowfall had already ford a thick layer of snow outside the clan grounds.
Inside the clan, the temperature was pleasant, and many warriors practicing combat skills were dressed lightly, their bodies emitting faint heat.
“Sigh, when will I ever master this combat skill?” Lucas Chen sighed in the square.
His punches lacked strength as he practiced the Grand Ancestor Long Fist.
Even though it was just a normal-grade combat skill, mastering it still required a lot of practice.
Beside him, Alexander Chen, with a determined look, continued to throw punches, feeling the flow of Qi and blood within his body, rging his movents with the flow.
Seeing Alexander not giving up, Lucas stopped complaining and resud his practice.
Not far away, Ethan Chen watched the scene in the square with satisfaction. Although most of the clan’s Body Tempering Realm warriors hadn’t mastered the skill yet, it wouldn’t take long.
As for the Bright Moon Like Frost combat skill, it was temporarily only taught to the Blood Condensation Realm warriors in the clan.
But mastering a Xuan-level combat skill was extrely difficult.
Then, Oliver Chen looked into the distance.
He was sowhat worried. It had been snowing for days, and Oliver hadn’t returned. If he hadn’t consulted the Sacred Tree and learned there was no problem, he would have sent people to search for him.
“Clan Chief, the new clothes for the clan are all ready.”
Shao Zhenfang stepped forward to report.
Hearing this, Ethan nodded repeatedly:
“Good job. I’ve also finished writing the new clan rules. Let’s distribute them together later.”
“Yes, Clan Chief.”
Shao Zhenfang and two clan mbers headed towards the square, carrying the new clothes for the clan.
When they arrived at the square with the new clothes, many clan mbers were drawn to them.
The new clothes were made of fine fur, designed as long robes with two layers. They could keep warm in winter and, in sumr, only the outer layer was needed.
The style of the new clothes was similar to what the clan mbers usually wore. Though simple, the new clothes had an embroidered pattern on the cuffs.
The pattern, of course, was the clan totem.
The embroidery used green and black threads, perfectly depicting the current Sacred Tree of the clan, showing the effort put into it.
The clan mbers who received the new clothes were delighted, holding them dearly.
Worried about getting them dirty, many even planned to store them away, but were then inford that they must wear these clothes whenever they went out.
This idea was proposed by the late elders of the clan.
For the clan to grow strong, it needed not only strength but also a new image to present to the outside world, thus creating a powerful clan.
The totem on the clothes would also remind the clan mbers to always worship and pray.
In addition to the new clothes, new clan rules were also distributed.
Clan rules had always existed, but many old rules were no longer suitable for the current clan and were discarded.
But now, that was no longer the case.
Lucas Chen opened the new clan rules.
1. Unless in an ergency, clan mbers are not allowed to use the Five Organs Ascension Technique.
2. Even if used, the heart must not be exploded. Anyone found doing so will be denied entry to the ancestral hall.
3. The final move of the Five Organs Ascension Technique must not be taught to uninford clan mbers.
4. When encountering unbeatable danger outside, return to the clan imdiately.
…
Reading the new clan rules, Lucas was montarily stunned.
The first three rules were about the Five Organs Ascension Technique, but thinking of that clan mber before, no one had any objections.
However, the clan rules were quite long, and they needed so ti to read through them.
In the distance, Ethan Chen was also observing the reactions of the clan mbers.
Although these rules imposed many restrictions, they were ultimately for the safety of each clan mber and the clan itself.
With the power of the Sacred Tree, the Five Organs Ascension Technique might truly beco an aid to the clan, but the final move, which involved exploding the heart, needed to be guarded against. Even if the combat skill was passed down, that final move must be removed.
The next day, the snowflakes in the sky disappeared.
The snow had stopped, but the weather remained cold. It would take about two months for the snow to lt, and it might snow again during this period.
Noticing the snow had stopped, Ethan Chen quickly issued orders for the clan mbers to clear the roads leading to other villages.
Winter was long, and even though they couldn’t plant or hunt, the clan’s developnt couldn’t co to a halt.
Upon hearing the news, many clan mbers began to get busy.
Blood Condensation Realm warriors, with their abundant Qi and blood, could use combat skills to lt the snow. Each Blood Condensation Realm warrior was like an automatic snowplow.
As for Body Tempering Realm warriors, they could only rely on tools.
Even with the full assistance of the clan’s warriors, it took ten days to clear the roads leading to various villages.
Fortunately, it didn’t snow in Disordered Burial Mountain during those ten days.
On the second day of snow removal, Oliver Chen returned to the clan, dragging his injured body.
Although he was seriously injured, his eyes shone brighter, and his realm had reached the peak of the Blood Condensation Realm.
His injuries were severe, but with the Sacred Tree’s healing, he recovered in no ti.
Having gained sothing from his experience, Oliver chose to go into seclusion within the clan.
Hearing this, Ethan Chen was overjoyed and imdiately prepared a room, forbidding anyone from disturbing him.
On the other side.
When many villages saw the Chen clan mbers arriving, they were astonished.
Usually, when heavy snow sealed the mountains, villagers could only clear the snow within their own villages, which was already their limit. They wouldn’t waste energy clearing roads outside.
Upon learning the purpose of the Chen clan mbers, the village chiefs were delighted and began discussing it within their villages.
Opportunity.
The word floated in their minds.
Currently, the Chen clan was the only clan in Disordered Burial Mountain. Whether it was fertile fields or hunting areas, they controlled everything.
Although the villagers also hunted and fard, it was in areas abandoned by the forr three great clans.
The hunting grounds had few beasts, and resources were scarce. Even the fields they fard produced only average grain rice.
As for Blood Rice, they couldn’t grow it at all. The fertile fields capable of growing Blood Rice were all controlled by the three great clans.
But now, the Chen clan wanted to form alliances outside.
For these villages, wasn’t this a golden opportunity?
