Chapter 142 The 4th Great Family

With the help of the Scarlet Red Pearl, Yan Ju got a thorough understanding of the situation of City Lord Mengli.

The Lord of Mengli City is not a direct descendant of the Feng family, but a more outstanding member of the Feng family's side branch, named Feng Cheng.

His cultivation was at the initial stage of Spirit Transformation. He had cultivated his earth-type spiritual power to perfection, and practiced both sword and formation. He even earned the nickname "Turtle Shell" due to his extremely strong defensive ability.

Yan Ju bit the pen and frowned, "His defense is so strong, but he also learned formations as a secondary skill. This is not easy to deal with."

Chi Hongzhu leaned on the table and said, "The Feng family members are born with strong mental strength and have a high understanding of formations. The children of the Feng family know a little about formations, especially the direct descendants of the Feng family, who are all pure formation masters."

Yan Ju didn't know about this news.

They left in a hurry and did not get any detailed information about the Feng family.

Among the four major families, except for the Qu family who often travels around to practice medicine and save lives and are well-known, the other three families are quite mysterious and low-key. They also strictly control the relevant situations of their direct descendants, resulting in very little information about them circulating outside.

Not only Yan Ju, Song Fanxing was also shocked when she heard it, "The Feng family actually has all these rare formation masters in the world of cultivation?"

Every formation master is an extremely valuable strategic resource in the world of cultivation.

However, because formations require too much comprehension and powerful mental strength, the number of formation masters in the world of cultivation is extremely small, a species even rarer than medical practitioners.

In terms of overall numbers, medical practitioners may only have one-tenth of the number of alchemy practitioners and talisman practitioners.

The number of formation masters may be only one-tenth of that of medical practitioners.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is a rare species.

And now all of the Feng family’s direct descendants are here?

Chi Hongzhu was speechless about the boldness of these people.

My goodness, you want to enter someone else’s central territory without knowing any information?

The main theme is recklessness, right?

She used her spiritual power and gestured a few times on the table.

A faint light appeared on the desktop, and four words appeared.

Yan Ju subconsciously repeated, "Xue, Feng, Qu, Chi."

Chi Hongzhu nodded, "These are the four great families often mentioned in the world of cultivation. The reason why the four great families have such a high status in the world of cultivation and are as famous as the five sects is because the four great families all have their own unique features and specialize in a certain path."

Yan Ju thought of the siblings Qu Yaoling and Qu Yaofeng, "We have met people from the Qu family in the Great Secret Realm before. All of their direct descendants are medical practitioners."

Chi Hongzhu didn't expect that they had already had contact with the Qu family. She looked at Yan Ju twice more and said, "Yes, the Qu family specializes in medicine, and the Feng family specializes in formation."

Yan Ju asked: "What about the Xue family and the Chi family?"

Chi Hongzhu said: "The Xue family is the head of the four great families. All the direct descendants have the body of fire spirits and have a contract with the ancient mythical beast, the phoenix."

Xue Zifang has not spoken since the discussion of the four major parties began, and his silence is a bit abnormal.

Yan Ju glanced at him and jokingly said, "Fourth Senior Brother, this Fire Spirit Body Xue family, could it be that they have something to do with you?"

Xue Zifang turned his head away and didn't look at her. "It has nothing to do with me. I don't know any Xue family."

Yan Ju leaned over to observe his expression.

Xue Zifang was quite calm, and no matter how Yan Ju observed him, he did not show any abnormality.

Yan Ju stopped looking at him and continued to listen to Chi Hongzhu's introduction.

"As for the Chi family..." Chi Hongzhu paused, "Their family is a bit peculiar. They were able to be ranked among the four major families not because of their strength."

Yan Ju was intrigued, "What do you mean?"

Chi Hongzhu gave them some knowledge about the aristocratic families. "When the aristocratic families were ranking the top four, the top three were quickly determined, and no one raised any questions. But the determination of the fourth place caused a huge uproar."

"Many noble families felt that they were qualified to be the fourth, such as the Qin family of Huaihe, the Tan family of Jinshan, and the Ma and Xia families. They all felt that they should be the fourth noble family, and no one would submit to the other. Later, these noble families agreed to fight, and whoever won would become the fourth largest noble family. The cultivation world almost started a great war between noble families."

This was the first time Yan Ju had heard such gossip about the cultivation world, and she listened with great interest, "And then what?"

"Then, before the war was about to break out, several major families suddenly shook hands and made peace, jointly recommending the Chi family to become the fourth largest family, and a war was averted without a trace."

"Later, it was said that the Chi family gave each family a small mountain of top-grade spirit stones to persuade them to nominate the Chi family as the fourth largest family."

Song Fanxing didn't quite understand what these noble families were doing. "Just for a few top-grade spirit stones, these noble families gave up the title of the fourth largest family?"

Yan Ju fell down on the chair after hearing this and said with a smile: "If it were me, I would be willing to do it too."

That is a top-grade spiritual stone as high as a small mountain!

Anyone who doesn't think clearly will have trouble with Lingshi.

What's the point of being the fourth largest family? Is it to train more talented disciples, or to help the family's great men who are stuck in a bottleneck to make further progress?

But Lingshi can!

In the world of cultivation, you can do a lot of things with spirit stones.

When it comes to the future prospects of the family and temporary fame, even a fool would know what to choose.

Fifth Brother is still too young.

It’s good that you are young and don’t know about spiritual stones.

If he had been beaten by the cultivation society for a few more years, he would never have asked such a question.

For example, Chi Hongzhu understood and supported it very much. "Firstly, it can avoid a war and prevent the loss of family strength. Secondly, those spirit stones are enough for the family to continue to develop for a thousand years. For these family heads, it is indeed an irresistible offer."

Yan Ju's focus shifted to another thing, "Is the Chi family so rich?"

I wonder if the Chi family has as many spirit stones as those in their sect’s Snow Gorge.

But it sounds like it's not much different from their sect.

After all, there were as many top-grade spirit stones as a mountain, and more than one was taken out.

There are probably at least six or seven noble families that need to be bribed openly, and there may be many more that are being bribed privately behind the scenes without anyone knowing.

To be able to take out so many spirit stones without blinking an eye, that means he is extremely wealthy.

Chi Hongzhu smiled slightly, "I wonder if you have heard of Baoyue Tower?"

Yan Ju blinked and instantly thought of the mean young master.

I finally understood, "Baoyue Tower is the property of the Chi family?"

Chi Hongzhu nodded, "The Chi family's business is spread all over the Guanxu Continent, and Baoyue Tower is just one of their businesses."

Yan Ju let out a hiss, and a lot of shiny things flashed before his eyes in an instant.

Although she herself was not short of money, she was still envious.

Chi Hongzhu fiddled with the tassel on the umbrella handle and said calmly, "In addition to selling these common magic tools and spiritual objects, they also sell intelligence. When it comes to the source of news and intelligence, no one can compare to the Chi family."

Yan Ju asked: "Is there also a Baoyue Tower in Mengli City?"

Red Pearl: “Yes.”

Yan Ju instantly shook off her lazy look, sat up from her chair, and had an idea about her plan.

"I have to go to Baoyue Tower."
