Chapter 17 Why the Zhou Family Invitation?
Chapter 17 Why the Zhou Family Invitation?
"Su Zhenting, how can you be so spineless? The City Lord's Mansion attacked your daughter. If it weren't for Xiao Feng, the consequences would have been unimaginable. And you're just going to let it go like this?" Qi Yuehua pointed at Su Zhenting's nose and cursed.
Old Master Su broke through his own limits because of Chu Feng, and Chu Feng also saved his daughter. Moreover, Chu Feng can now refine pills and has reached the sixth level of Qi Refining. Qi Yuehua has completely changed her attitude.
Where can you find such a talented son-in-law?
Su Yongquan nodded and said, "My granddaughter, Su Yongquan's granddaughter, is not someone anyone can bully. Even if we don't deal with the City Lord's Mansion today, we will wipe them out when we have the chance in the future!"
Upon hearing this, Su Zhenting breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that Old Master Su didn't intend to step forward right now. To confront a fifth-grade sect was tantamount to suicide! He had no objection to Qi Yuehua's words.
This guy is henpecked. If Qi Yuehua tells him to go east, he absolutely wouldn't dare go the wrong way.
“Grandpa, the City Lord’s Mansion plotted against Xiaoxiao, and I must eliminate them. However, these are just small fry, so there’s no need to rush. The most urgent task is to enhance the strength of the Su family,” Chu Feng said.
Since the City Lord's Mansion has a fifth-grade sect as its backer, it certainly cannot take direct action. Even if Chu Feng breaks through to the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, he is still no match for the Nascent Soul stage.
One move can affect the whole situation; we cannot let the entire Su family perish because of a moment of anger.
If Chu Feng were alone, he would have already destroyed the City Lord's Mansion. With his cultivation at the sixth level of Qi Refining, killing Qin Yueming would have been a piece of cake.
Now that I have a family, I can't be willful anymore.
Strength is the primary factor in ensuring the safety of the Su family.
Su Yongquan was injured by the Five Poisons Blazing Palm. The Su family's enemies are not only the City Lord's Mansion and the Zhou family. The hidden enemies are the most terrifying.
"Xiao Feng, what do you mean?" Su Yongquan decided to listen to Chu Feng's opinion. This kid had only broken through to the sixth level of Qi Refining, and the City Lord's Mansion had already become a nobody? How domineering!
Chu Feng said, "Grandpa, people who cultivate the Five Poisons Blazing Flame Palm are generally not rogue cultivators. This technique requires a lot of resources and also requires the use of human blood to practice. The key is to guard against these people."
Su Yongquan also looked solemn: "I've only heard of the Five Poisons Blazing Palm, I never thought I'd actually encounter it myself. Xiao Feng, this kind of poisonous skill is probably very difficult to resist!"
One person alone has already tied the Su family up; what if a group of people who practice poison skills suddenly appear?
Chu Feng nodded and said, "Indeed, Grandpa, your cultivation is deeper, so you were able to hold on until you came back for help. Cultivators below the seventh level of Qi Refining can only last a few breaths after being hit by this poisonous palm."
Upon hearing this, Su Zhenting and the others were filled with trepidation. These people were so powerful; how could the Su family, with only Old Master Su, possibly withstand them? More importantly, they didn't know where these people came from, or why they were targeting the Su family.
Chu Feng said, "Once someone who cultivates the Five Poisons Blazing Flame Palm breaks through the Foundation Establishment stage, their poison skills are considered to have reached a minor level. Such a person can easily kill even those of higher cultivation levels, and those of lower cultivation levels will die upon contact."
"This... I don't know where these people came from either. After the man in black injured me, he disappeared without a trace," Su Yongquan sighed.
When he was fleeing for his life, Su Yongquan didn't dare to look to see where the enemy had gone.
"Grandpa, have a reliable person go to the Pill Pavilion to exchange more spiritual materials, medicinal herbs, and refining materials with other families. I will refine some pills and weapons for the Su family to improve their strength as much as possible. By the way, I will also break through to the Qi Refining Perfection stage."
Chu Feng also knew that it was impossible to improve the strength of the Su family members in a short period of time, so he could only take it one step at a time.
Time is tight. I still need to go to the Pill Pavilion to refine the Marrow Nourishing Pill. This pill is a peak second-grade pill, and I need to have at least the cultivation level of Qi Refining Perfection to refine it.
Upon hearing that Chu Feng was also going to forge weapons, Su Yongquan and the others were speechless. He had broken through six minor realms in two days and was already forging Foundation Establishment Pills, and now he wanted to forge weapons? Was he a monster?
In any case, Su Yongquan and the others were completely numb.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at Chu Feng as if he were a monster. Was he hiding something? Or what? She had to ask him properly tonight.
The Su family owns an iron mine and an arms shop, so Chu Feng will definitely not lack materials if he wants to forge weapons. However, he will have to exchange for the various spiritual materials and medicinal herbs needed for alchemy.
After Chu Feng finished writing the materials list, Su Yongquan acted swiftly and decisively, immediately arranging manpower and getting things started.
Su Zhenting and Qi Yuehua were both sent out by him.
However, Su Yongquan did not ask Su Xiaoxiao to do any work after the incident at the City Lord's Mansion.
Staying by Chu Feng's side should be safer.
Once the pills and weapons were refined, Chu Feng decided to teach some martial arts techniques to the Su family. Practicing martial arts without practicing fist techniques is like having no money; no matter how high one's cultivation level is, without the aid of martial arts techniques, one's combat power is only so-so.
Chu Feng couldn't protect the Su family all the time; he also needed to cultivate. If the Su family members improved their strength, they could protect themselves.
Besides supporting the Su family, Chu Feng also needs to build his own power. In his previous life, he was lonely and alone, and was eventually besieged and killed. In this life, he must learn from his mistakes and change his ways.
Otherwise, how can one cultivate oneself if one has to do everything personally?
Having your own power means you don't need to personally take action, whether it's gathering cultivation resources, encountering enemies, or protecting your family.
In this way, I can focus entirely on cultivation.
"Master, the Zhou family has arrived! They say they've brought an invitation!" Just then, the head guard of the Su family came to the hall to report.
Su Yongquan frowned. The Zhou family was the Su family's old enemy, so why would they send an invitation?
"Let the person in." Su Yongquan wanted to see what tricks the other party was up to.
Furthermore, in times of war, envoys should not be killed, lest word get out and people say that the Su family is petty and doesn't even dare to accept an invitation from the Zhou family.
"Greetings, Grandpa Su. My master invites you to a banquet," the man said, neither humble nor arrogant.
"Oh? I wonder who your grandfather invited?" Su Yongquan asked.
The visitor said, "Besides the Su family head, there are also the Wang family head, the Liu family head, the Jian family head, the city lord, the treasure pavilion master, and the alchemy pavilion master."
"Oh? What business does your Zhou family have that you need to gather the eight major powers of Julu City?" Su Yongquan was shocked. Danlou and Qibaoge were both giant-level powers. What made the Zhou family able to invite these two parties?
"Old Master Su, the invitation has been delivered. As for whether you will attend, that is your decision. My mission is complete, and I will take my leave now." The messenger left with these words.
"Let's go, Xiaofeng, take Xiaoxiao with us, let's go to the Zhou family's banquet." After a few breaths of silence, Su Yongquan made up his mind to go to the banquet!
