Chapter 319 Preparing for the Family Competition, A Sudden Blood Oath!
"Yes, Hongzhan, you can't be so hypocritical."
Besides, we're all over a hundred years old, so what if we don't want to use our brains?
"You young people are trying to imitate us? How can that work?"
"If you act this way, will the family rely entirely on the Xuan-generation cultivators when we pass away?"
As elders, they naturally have the right to object.
The Hong generation cultivators inside the hall could only listen.
You dare to argue back?
that's the truth.
Zhang Hongzhan, Zhang Hongyi, and Zhang Hongwen looked at each other, but were unable to refute the argument.
He looked helpless, but could only remain silent.
Seeing this, Zhang Xuanchen knew that they wouldn't be able to come up with anything.
He tried to smooth things over by saying, "Alright, alright."
This isn't exploitation; it's just about figuring out ways to develop a family business plan.
If you don't mind, I will arrange everything properly.
Anyway, all the plans will be discussed in the meeting. And with you all watching, I'm not afraid of making any mistakes.
"Hahaha, the clan leader is wise!" The crowd said in unison, completely satisfied.
Zhang Xuanchen completely ignored those words.
He looked at Zhang Hongyi, the head of the General Affairs Hall, and said, "Seventh Elder."
How many cultivators aged thirteen to eighteen are there in my Zhang family now?
As the head of the General Affairs Hall, I manage the allocation of family resources. The resources distributed to each member of the family each month are claimed from the General Affairs Hall.
I am naturally very clear about this issue.
Zhang Hongyi, whose name was called, pondered for a moment, then stepped forward, clasped his hands in greeting, and said:
"Reporting to the clan leader, according to this month's statistics, there are a total of thirty-three cultivators in the clan aged between thirteen and eighteen."
The vast majority of them are at the early stage of Qi Refining.
Hearing this, Zhang Xuanchen was not surprised. Most of the cultivators in his family had five spiritual roots, and it was perfectly normal for such cultivators not to have reached the mid-stage of Qi Refining before the age of eighteen.
After all, under normal circumstances, spiritual root talent and comprehension talent are corresponding.
In other words, cultivators with five spiritual roots not only cultivate slowly, but also lag behind in their comprehension of cultivation techniques and spells.
Conversely, if you are a genius with a heavenly spiritual root, your comprehension will definitely not be bad either.
Unless one has a special physical condition, such as having a strong innate soul or possessing innate wisdom bones like Zhang Tian.
Hearing Zhang Hongyi's answer, Zhang Xuanchen nodded: "Mm."
As far as I know, among the family members aged thirteen to eighteen, only Zhang Xuanlong, Zhang Wanjun, and Zhang Xuanyue have good talent.
The rest of the clansmen did not excel in cultivation.
However, this should not lead to a reduction in their resources.
Not only clansmen, but also household guards.
As long as the retainers do not make mistakes, they must be provided with the appropriate resources on time.
They deserved it after a month of hard work for the family.
No matter who it is, if they dare to withhold resources, no matter who they are.
"Execute them all!"
As he uttered the last two words, Zhang Xuanchen unleashed an overwhelming killing intent.
He made everyone in the hall feel his attitude towards this matter.
It wasn't that he had lived through it, but rather that in his past life he had seen too many novels where characters were wiped out by the protagonist later on because their resources were withheld.
Isn't this a huge loss?
Although the others in the hall were unaware that Zhang Xuanchen would take this matter so seriously, none of them asked.
They all nodded in agreement.
Anyway, they never withheld or even considered withholding resources from their clansmen or retainers.
As sword cultivators, they all possess their own proud sword spirit.
Doing such despicable things will only cloud their resolve.
Seeing this, Zhang Xuanchen's aura gradually calmed down, and the originally powerful killing intent vanished without a trace in an instant.
Their gaze fell on Luo Lingshuang, who was standing at the very back.
With a broad smile on his face, he proudly said:
"There is another important announcement to make today."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the hall turned their gaze to Luo Lingshuang, guessing what Zhang Xuanchen was about to say.
Zhang Xuanchen didn't care whether they guessed it or not, he stood up and went to Luo Lingshuang's side.
He took her little hand and said loudly, "Shuang'er, you have successfully formed your core and are now a Golden Core cultivator."
His Taoist name is Ningyuan Zhenren!
Golden Elixir Quality—The Great Dao Golden Elixir!
hum-
Upon hearing the words "Great Dao Golden Elixir," everyone in the hall felt a buzzing sound in their heads.
What exactly is the Great Dao Golden Elixir?
Oh, it's a Great Dao Golden Core that surpasses even a First-Grade Golden Core!
This is defying the heavens!
The highest quality Golden Core in the South China Sea Immortal Continent right now is only the third-grade Golden Core of that big shot from the Flying Feather Immortal Sect.
But now, a peerless prodigy who had condensed the Golden Core of the Great Dao was standing quietly in front of him.
She will be the matriarch of the Zhang family in the near future!
The Zhang family's ancestral graves are really about to explode!
This is really going to be amazing!
For a moment, the hall was completely silent, without the slightest noise.
Everyone stared at Luo Lingshuang with incredulous eyes.
This is simply like a goddess descending to earth.
The sudden silence startled the Great Sage awake, who had been fast asleep on the main table.
He rubbed his eyes groggily, looked around and saw that nothing was happening, then lay back down on the table and went back to sleep.
Luo Ling Shuang felt a little embarrassed by everyone's stares and wanted to lean closer to Zhang Xuan Chen.
Then, one after another, the vows of the Great Dao were heard:
"I, Zhang Hongzhan, hereby swear that I will never reveal to anyone outside the hall today the matter of Luo Lingshuang condensing the Great Dao Golden Core."
If you disobey, your cultivation will be completely destroyed, and your soul will be annihilated!
"I, Zhang Guangyao..."
"I, Zhang Guanghan..."
……
Luo Ling Shuang's expression changed. She realized what was happening and tried to stop them, but it was too late.
Everyone inside the hall had sworn a blood oath.
For a moment, Luo Lingshuang was at a loss, and looked at Zhang Xuanchen with anxiety.
Zhang Xuanchen didn't know what to say about this.
Because he hadn't expected it at all.
He could only pat Luo Lingshuang's hand to reassure her.
The custom of swearing a blood oath has been etched into the minds of these people.
"Um, Xiaoshuang, I'm sorry, I startled you," Zhang Hongzhan said.
"We just want to make sure that the news of your condensation of the Great Dao Golden Core doesn't get out."
"Of course, we certainly won't say it on our own initiative, because if we did, it would bring utter disaster to you and the Zhang family."
"But what if one of us is captured alive by some force and then has his soul searched?"
It's better to be safe than sorry.
Everything for the family.
As soon as he finished speaking, the others in the hall began to nod in agreement.
"Yes, absolutely, absolutely."
"That's right, that's right."
……
This illustrates the point:
If you have nothing to hide, swearing an oath in blood is as natural as eating and drinking.
There are very few families in the entire Xuanqiong cultivation world that can match the Zhang family, perhaps they are the only ones.
After all, no one wants to be bound by the laws of nature because of someone else.
Even if he doesn't break his oath, this shackle has no effect on him.
