Chapter 1228 The Ancestor Summons Him
After leaving Dadong Market, Xu Changshou took to the air and flew towards the Xu residence.
Soon, Xu Changshou arrived above the Xu residence.
With a sweep of his divine sense, he instantly gained a complete understanding of the situation at the Xu residence.
At this time, there were four Nascent Soul cultivators and two demon gods in the Xu residence.
They are: Xu Xiufan, Ye Yuzhu, Li Ling'er, Xu Donghe, Huo Qilin, and Xiao Jin.
That's right, Xu Donghe has also broken through to the Fusion stage, and the Fire Qilin and Little Gold are now stationed in the Xu family.
Xu Xiufan and Huo Qilin lived together in the backyard, which was originally where Xu Changshou lived.
Li Ling'er and Xu Qianxian lived in the middle courtyard, while Xu Xiufan's nine sons lived in the front courtyard.
Fortunately, Xu Changshou bought a large enough house when he bought it, so even though the nine brothers lived in the front yard, it still didn't feel crowded.
"My God!"
"what happened?"
"Which senior is it?"
Sensing Xu Changshou's divine sense, the members of the Xu family were all terrified.
A cultivator at the Refinement of Emptiness realm alone is enough to overthrow the Xu family.
"Xiu Fan, don't panic, Grandpa is back."
Xu Changshou spoke lightly.
"Grandpa, you're back!"
Xu Xiufan waved his hand to activate the protective formation of the Xu residence, and at the same time flew into the air.
"Grandson greets grandpa!"
"Come quick, let Grandpa take a look!"
Xu Xiufan stood up and went to Xu Changshou.
Xu Changshou glanced at Xu Xiufan and was slightly taken aback.
At this moment, Xu Xiufan looked like a dignified middle-aged man, with slightly graying temples.
Xiu Fan has grown old.
Xu Changshou remained lost in thought for a long time.
Yes, Xu Xiufan is now at the Great Perfection of the Integration Realm, and is over three thousand years old. Integration Realm cultivators have a lifespan of five thousand years, and he has already lived more than half of his lifespan.
This is what a Nascent Soul cultivator over three thousand years old should look like.
"Good child, you've suffered these days without Grandpa."
Xu Changshou stroked Xu Xiufan's head, feeling a slight pang in his heart. This was his closest blood relative. Although Xu Xiufan also had his own child, Xu Changshou couldn't feel any kinship with Xu Xiufan's child.
The only person who could make Xu Changshou feel family affection was Xu Xiufan.
In another thousand years or so, I fear that Xiu Fan will also leave me.
"My grandson is not suffering, he is doing very well!"
Looking at Xu Changshou's youthful face, Xu Xiufan's eyes reddened slightly.
A thousand years have passed, but Grandpa hasn't changed at all; time hasn't left a single trace on his face.
"Grandson pays homage to grandpa."
"Brother Changshou."
"Greetings, Uncle-Master Xu!"
Immediately afterwards, Ye Yuzhu, Li Ling'er, Xiao Jin, and Huo Qilin all came to Xu Changshou's side.
Xiao Jin was the most excited to see Xu Changshou.
"Grandson Xu Dongtian greets his great-grandfather."
"Grandson Xu Dongya greets his great-grandfather."
"Grandson Xu Dongming greets his great-grandfather."
"Grandson Xu Dongyue greets great-grandfather."
"Grandson Xu Dongqian greets great-grandfather."
"Grandson Xu Dongxu greets great-grandfather."
"Grandson Xu Dongli greets great-grandfather."
"Grandson Xu Dongrang greets his great-grandfather."
"Grandson Xu Donghe pays respects to his great-grandfather."
"Grandson Xu Qianxian greets great-grandfather."
Finally, Xu Donghe and his siblings, a total of ten people, ran over and excitedly kowtowed to Xu Changshou.
Xu Changshou glanced at Xu Donghe. At this moment, Xu Donghe's cultivation had already broken through to the mid-stage of the Integration Realm.
Apart from Xu Donghe, the eight Xu Dongtian brothers and Xu Qianxian were all cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage.
"Good, good, good! You're all doing a great job! Hahaha, the Xu family is thriving!"
Xu Changshou was very happy. With a wave of his hand, he led his men back to the backyard.
His room was always empty, and no outsiders were allowed to enter. It was always Xu Xiufan and Ye Yuzhu who cleaned it.
In the main hall, Xu Changshou sat alone at the head of the table. He waved his hand, signaling Xu Xiufan and the others to take their seats.
Xu Changshou glanced at everyone and asked, "Xiu Fan, I heard that our Xu family is about to hold a ceremony to recognize our ancestors. Is that true?"
"Yes!"
Xu Xiufan nodded and smiled, "In ten days, the ceremony for recognizing ancestors and returning to one's clan will be held."
Xu Changshou asked, "How many children are participating?"
Xu Xiufan said, "There are about thirty people."
"Ok!"
Xu Changshou nodded secretly. In just one hundred years, they had cultivated thirty Nascent Soul cultivators. The Xu family was doing well now.
Back then, Xu Changshou went through countless hardships to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.
Compared to back then, the Xu family is much better off now.
Xu Changshou changed the subject and asked, "How are the resources of the Xu family?"
Xu Xiufan replied, "Apart from that family shop, most of the Xu family members work in the Immortal Bureau."
"Ok!"
Xu Changshou nodded secretly. Compared to the Xu family's current strength, this amount of resources was clearly insufficient.
But what the Xu family needs now is talent, not resources. As the Xu family grows and expands, resources will become more and more abundant.
As long as there are people, there will be no shortage of resources.
The most important thing right now is to select talented people.
"Xiu Fan, the Xu family should not have too many resources. We should avoid competing for the resources of the Immortal Clan if possible. I will take care of the resources needed by the clan."
"Yes!"
"Also, after the ancestral recognition ceremony is over, I want to meet the Xu family's disciples who passed the assessment."
"Yes!"
After a moment's thought, Xu Changshou continued, "Next time we go to the Eastern Immortal Realm to guide disciples, we should send some Xu family disciples there. The Xu family bloodline must remain in the Eastern Immortal Realm."
"My grandson knows."
Xu Changshou had considered everything very carefully, leaving the Xu family bloodline in the Eastern Immortal Realm. Even if their Xu family in the Sangyu Immortal Realm were wiped out, the Xu family bloodline would not be completely destroyed.
Several days passed in the blink of an eye.
Holding the Xu family disciple token, Xu Erya entered the Xu family to undergo the assessment.
When she arrived at the Xu family, she learned that there were actually thirty or forty people taking the test with her, all of whom were disciples of the Xu family.
In the main hall of the front courtyard.
Thirty or forty disciples of the Xu family gathered together.
Xu Dongtian's figure appeared in the main hall.
"Grandson pays respects to his Heavenly Ancestor Grandfather."
"Grandson pays respects to Grandfather Tiantian."
"Grandson pays respects to Grandfather Tianlie."
"Grandson pays respects to Grandfather Tian Taizu."
Xu Erya and the other Xu family disciples knelt down and kowtowed to Xu Dongtian.
In terms of seniority, Xu Erya is Xu Dongtian's sixth-generation descendant, and should address Xu Dongtian as his great-great-grandfather.
The Xu family values bloodlines, so the clan has grown rapidly and the generational hierarchy is quite chaotic. Among these thirty or forty people, many call Xu Erya "Grandma".
He glanced at everyone and announced, "I have good news for you all. Your great-grandfather has returned. Those who pass the test this time will be granted an audience with him."
"what!"
"Grandpa Xu has returned."
"My God, we actually have a chance to see our great-grandfather!"
"Great."
A group of young Xu family disciples became excited.
They grew up hearing the legends of their great-grandfather, but no one had ever seen him. It was said that their great-grandfather cultivated in the Donghua Immortal Sect and was a cultivator at the Refining Void Realm, the strongest person in their Xu family.
Xu Erya was overjoyed. She was so lucky to have the chance to meet the legendary ancestor. She was determined to pass the test.
That's right, the Xu family disciples call Xu Changshou "Grandpa Ancestor". Xu Xiufan is the ancestor, the ancestor's grandfather, so they call him Grandpa Ancestor.
Of course, when it's each person's turn, their seniority must be taken into account.
