Chapter 1103: Chapter 1103: The One That Got Away

Chairman Qu’s dissatisfaction could not be openly expressed, so he merely noted it in secret. Therefore, when the Nangong Family approached him to discuss matters pertaining to Mount Zhige, it was convenient for him to acquiesce and go along with the other party’s proposals—though this was not truly his original intention.

As for the specifics, he could not cooperate much, given he had to maintain the dignity of Ancestor Huang Fu.

But for Ancestor Huang Fu, who was aware of the situation, this was already a very dangerous affair.

Nangong Youjiu sat with Chairman Qu for a while, and then stood up to leave—the Nangong Family still had some matters to attend to.

However, three days later, he suddenly received news that made him freeze in shock, “The Xue Family…is gone?”

To be precise, the Xue Family still existed, but their cultivators in the phase beyond Qi Refinement…were gone.

The incident occurred one day earlier when more than ten cultivators beyond Qi Refinement, accompanied by over a hundred Qi-Refining Cultivators, stormed the Xue Family’s ancestral home.

The Xue Family, a clan of over ten thousand members with more than five thousand combatants, was not considered a major family in the Cultivation World; they were rather a middle to lower-tier clan. However, having five cultivators in the phase beyond Qi Refinement made them believe they had the capital to expand.

Of course, it wasn’t just about having the capital; every family has the fundamental need to expand their living space. Previously, with only four cultivators beyond Qi Refinement, they had the will but lacked the strength. The addition of another such cultivator vastly increased the manpower they could deploy.

Don’t think the addition of just one cultivator beyond Qi Refinement doesn’t make a difference. Its presence or absence is significant; before this, the Xue Family’s ancestral home needed two cultivators beyond Qi Refinement to guard it, another to manage business affairs at Jumu Market Town, and one more to come and go, providing support.
