Family Rise by Daily Intelligence-Chapter 216 - 148: Double Lottery, Completion of the Earth Fire House, Talisman Making Genius

Chapter 216: Chapter 148: Double Lottery, Completion of the Earth Fire House, Talisman Making Genius

Fu Changsheng said:

"These Red-tailed Fox claws were obtained when I attacked the Niuteng Tribe together with the Shangguan Family years ago. They’ve been put aside for many years, and now they’re perfect for you to practice with. I hope you can take this opportunity to breakthrough to a Tier Two Refiner."

"Runzhi will certainly give it my all and not disappoint the Patriarch’s high expectations!"

Tier Two materials.

These are indeed precious items.

Liu Runzhi felt somewhat moved.

As he spoke.

A familiar mechanical voice echoed in Fu Changsheng’s Sea of Divine Sense:

"Ding"

"You gave a pair of Tier Two Low-Grade Red-tailed Fox claws to a clan member, gaining sixty Clan Contribution Points."

Simultaneously,

the points on the panel changed from three hundred to three hundred sixty.

Fu Changsheng’s heart rejoiced, and after encouraging Liu Runzhi a bit, he headed towards Moon Lake. The island was considerably quieter without the squawking of Snow Cloud Chickens.

In the Spirit Field.

Fairy Lady Cai was instructing the members of the Spirit Plant Hall on how to employ the Golden Needle Technique to eliminate the Paling Insects on the Red Marrow Rice.

Among them, Fu Yongfu listened attentively, yet often couldn’t grasp the essentials.

Lady Cai allowed the other clan members to practice and called the sweaty Fu Yongfu aside, speaking gently:

"Yongfu, you’ve been in the Spirit Plant Hall for almost three years now, yet haven’t managed to achieve entry-level status. You know as well as I do, that being a Spirit Plant Cultivator is not for you. While there’s still time, you should consider which skill in the Hundred Skills of Cultivation you have a greater talent for."

"Master, I... I’ve tried alchemy and artifact refining, but I’m completely clueless. As for arrays, they’re too profound to learn, and speaking of the Weaving Hall, I’ve tried it too, it’s really..."

As he spoke,

Fu Yongfu couldn’t help but tear up.

He felt like he was worthless, unable to excel in any of the Hundred Skills of Cultivation. He was among the earliest batch to enter after the clan’s Immortal Ascension Assembly restarted, and now all the other brothers and sisters had found their paths, but he can’t succeed in anything.

Blow after blow,

his confidence was crushed into the mud.

Fairy Lady Cai treated the disciples of the Spirit Plant Hall like her own children. Seeing this, she hurriedly held Fu Yongfu’s hand and comforted him:

"Yongfu, don’t lose heart.

In the Hundred Skills of Cultivation, you’ve only tried a few. Your true talent might be elsewhere.

Since alchemy and artifact refining aren’t suitable for you, the clan’s talisman-making tradition is complete. When Molan comes out of seclusion, I’ll personally take you to see her.

Though Molan is currently busy with puppet making, I’ve heard her talisman-making talent was quite good before. The clan is in need of talisman-making talents. If she could guide you and help you get started, there’s hope for you to become the Hall Master of the Talisman Hall one day.

Even if talisman-making doesn’t work, there are other paths. You’re still young; don’t lose faith in yourself. We cultivators aim to defy destiny, and if you lose your beliefs, your path of cultivation will end."

"Master..."

Fu Yongfu was moved to tears.

The two stood just outside the Spirit Field talking, and although Fu Changsheng was some distance away, he heard everything clearly and couldn’t help but regard Lady Cai more highly.

After emphasizing his footsteps,

Fairy Lady Cai first noticed, turned her head to see the Patriarch, and quickly said:

"Greetings, Patriarch. If you have matters, instruct your servants to pass them down, how can you personally make the trip?"

Fu Yongfu, due to multiple blows, was somewhat inferior, and uneasily hid behind Fairy Lady Cai, not daring to face the Patriarch.

Fu Changsheng noticed but said nothing more, instead speaking to Fairy Lady Cai:

"Master Cai, the clan will visit the fiefdom in two months, Meizhen and I discussed wanting you to lead the Spirit Plant Cultivators to open up the Spirit Field. Leave Steward Chen and two Tier One Low-Grade Spirit Plant Cultivators in the Spirit Plant Hall, what do you think?"

The reason for not taking Chen Dazhu.

Was because last report mentioned, that when Liuu Qingyun attacked the Clan Mountain, if not for Fairy Lady Cai’s insistence, Chen Dazhu would have left the Fu Family a while ago.

So,

Chen Dazhu is only suited to stay in the clan’s land.

Moreover, he specifically instructed Meizhen to pay particular attention to Chen Dazhu’s movements, not letting him contact outsiders, nor letting him leave Clan Mountain even a step.

Fairy Lady Cai was slightly surprised upon hearing.

But soon responded:

"Patriarch, I am willing to go to the fiefdom."

Lately,

her husband and she have been arguing non-stop about going to the fiefdom.

The old man feared the fiefdom’s dangers and was unwilling to go, while she saw it as a rare opportunity.

While she can still move, she naturally wants to gain more Contribution Points for her daughter, Jade Lotus. The couple has no hope for Foundation Establishment, but the daughter is still young and everything holds promise.

For her daughter,

she’s willing to brave mountain and fire.

Fu Changsheng nodded slightly:

"Hmm, in the following period, pass some of your work on. Yongfu, you come with me."

Fu Yongfu, who was hiding behind Fairy Lady Cai like an invisible person, suddenly heard the patriarch call his name, thinking it was a hallucination, stood dazed.

Despite Fairy Lady Cai’s surprise,

it was a great honor to meet the Patriarch personally, hastily whispered: "Yongfu, what are you waiting for? Go quickly."

"Yes, master."

Fu Yongfu was bewildered.

He swiftly reviewed all he had done since entering the Clan Mountain, relieved to find no mistakes, but then thought of his father who drank excessively in the mundane world, causing his heart to skip:

"Could it be....."

His father drank often.

And often, after getting drunk, would beat them mother and son badly.

He still vividly remembers, at age five, after a fierce fight, his mother took him to hide in a room. Peeking through the door crack, he saw his father holding a gleaming kitchen knife, staring at the door like a soul-snatching envoy. This scene he would sometimes wake from in nightmares.

Thinking of this,

Fu Yongfu hurriedly quickened his pace.

Mustering courage, he said:

"Patriarch, is it... is it that something happened to my mother?"
