Chapter 284: Quickly Invite Soul-Seizing Adult into the Ancestral Hall

Shang Lingjun respectfully said,

“Qin Family Head, you’ve resolved such a major crisis for my Xuantian Merchant Guild, so our Shang Family won’t ask for a bride price.”

Qin Feng smiled.

“I think it’s better to wait until Shang Family Head sees it before making a decision.”

Then Qin Feng took out a Storage Ring and handed it to Qin Fen.

Qin Fen carefully handed the Storage Ring to Shang Lingjun and said,

“Father-in-law, Mother-in-law, this is my Qin Family’s betrothal gift for Shang Luoyun. Please, both of you, accept it.”

Shang Lingjun laughed heartily at this moment.

“Good, Qin Fen, I accept you as my son-in-law, so I’ll accept this betrothal gift.”

Seeing that the matter was resolved, Qin Feng said,

“Shang Family Head, since the betrothal gift has been delivered, I’ll take my leave. One month from now, Qin Fen will come to marry Shang Luoyun.”

Shang Lingjun showed a satisfied expression.

“Qin Family Head, why don’t you stay and have a simple meal at our Xuantian Merchant Guild before leaving? It’s not too late.”

Qin Feng smiled.

“Thank you for your kindness, Shang Family Head, but I have other matters to attend to in the Central Domain this time, so I won’t stay long.”

After speaking, Qin Feng, along with Qin Fen and Qin Yan, directly vanished from their spot, yet not a single spatial fluctuation was emitted.

“Qin Family Head is truly a master, a master!”

Shang Lingjun sighed with emotion.

Shang Luoyun’s mother looked at Shang Luoyun kindly at this moment.

“Shang Luoyun, I didn’t expect you to marry so soon. For over a hundred years, mother hasn’t had a good look at you.”

“For this month, you must spend more time with your mother. After a month, when you marry into the Northern Domain, it will be difficult for your mother to see you.”

Shang Luoyun said with red eyes,

“Mother, don’t worry, Shang Luoyun will often come back to see you in the future.”

“Moreover, I obtained a Xuantian Teleportation Talisman in the Qin Family, which allows me to teleport anywhere on the Xuantian Continent at any time. When I miss you in the future, I can come back to see you whenever I want.”

Then Shang Luoyun took out the Xuantian Teleportation Talisman she had obtained from the Qin Family.

The moment he saw the Xuantian Teleportation Talisman, Shang Batian’s gaze was completely drawn to it.

“Holy crap, this can’t be the legendary high-grade spirit crystals, can it?”

When the people in the living room heard Shang Batian’s words, they all gathered around, looking at the Innate Teleportation Talisman.

“Old Ancestor, this isn’t an high-grade spirit crystals.”

Upon hearing this, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. If it truly were made of high-grade spirit crystals, then just one piece could buy the entire Xuantian Merchant Guild. How could they dare to ask for a bride price then?

“Old Ancestor, this is Supreme-Grade Spirit Marrow. I’ve seen descriptions of Supreme-Grade Spirit Marrow in an ancient book in the Family.”

“What? You said this is Supreme-Grade Spirit Marrow? How is that possible?”

“Shang Luoyun, Old Ancestor wants to discuss something with you. Can you lend Old Ancestor your Xuantian Teleportation Talisman for a few days?”

At this moment, Shang Lingjun said,

“Old Ancestor, this is Shang Luoyun’s item, and it was given by the Qin Family. Aren’t you afraid of the Qin Family’s wrath if you try to claim it for yourself?”

Shang Batian, at this moment, flushed red and said,

“Who said I want to claim it for myself? I said borrow, don’t you understand borrow?”

Shang Luojun tried to smooth things over.

“Father, Old Ancestor, don’t argue. Didn’t the Qin Family just send the betrothal gift? Why don’t we take a look? Maybe there’s something Old Ancestor needs.”

It was then that they remembered the betrothal gift. Shang Lingjun then curiously scanned the Storage Ring.

However, as soon as he looked, he immediately sat on the ground, unable to get up again, because his legs had gone limp.

“Look at your inexperienced, pathetic state, truly embarrassing.”

After Shang Batian finished speaking, he took the Storage Ring from Shang Lingjun’s hand and then curiously looked inside.

Next, Shang Batian’s legs also went limp, and he directly collapsed onto the ground, his shock even more intense than Shang Lingjun’s.

The two exchanged glances, revealing expressions of disbelief.

Because the items inside were simply too luxurious, so luxurious that they simply couldn’t refuse. It was then that he remembered what Qin Feng had said before leaving.

At this moment, even if they were asked to refuse, they wouldn’t want to refuse anymore.

There weren’t many items in the Storage Ring: just a High Grade spiritual crystal ore vein, a jar of Enlightenment Tea Leaves, two Medicinal Pills rich in Spiritual Qi, and an Emperor Weapon of unknown grade.

Every item inside made their hearts stir.

The other Qin Family members felt like ants crawling inside, and Shang Lingjun and Shang Batian both collapsing on the ground further piqued their curiosity.

They wanted to know what kind of things could make the Shang Family Old Ancestor and Family Head react in such a way.

Shang Lingjun said solemnly at this moment,

“Shang Luoyun, I heard Shang Luojun say you went to the Qin Family. What do you think of the Qin Family?”

Shang Luoyun recalled the scenes at the Qin Family, her expression solemn.

“Father, the Qin Family is unfathomable. But what exactly did the Qin Family send as a betrothal gift that could make you, Father, and the Grand Elder lose your composure like this?”

Shang Lingjun looked around. They were all direct descendants of the Shang Family, and all were loyal to the Family.

“All Shang Family members, make a Heavenly Dao oath. What you see today must not be uttered, not even half a word, otherwise you will suffer the torment of ten thousand demons devouring your heart and never be able to advance further in your life.”

“If you are unwilling to make a Heavenly Dao oath, I will not force you, but then I can only ask you to leave.”

At this moment, everyone looked at each other, even more curious about the items. To make them make a Heavenly Dao oath, those items must be Heaven-Defying.

However, they were all loyal to the Family and felt that making a Heavenly Dao oath didn’t matter, because even if they didn’t make a Heavenly Dao oath, they wouldn’t say anything.

Seeing everyone make a Heavenly Dao oath, Shang Lingjun then took out the items one by one from the Storage Ring, not forgetting to say,

“The first item, a High Grade spiritual crystal ore vein. Roughly estimated, one hundred million High Grade spiritual crystals can be mined from it.”

Just this one item made the Shang Family members dumbfounded, completely dumbfounded.

“Holy crap, does the Qin Family have a mine at home? They even brought out a High Grade spiritual crystal ore vein.”

“Yeah, how extravagant is this? Our Xuantian Merchant Guild’s annual profit is only about one hundred thousand High Grade spiritual crystals. To send so much at once, this is enough for our Xuantian Merchant Guild to lay flat for hundreds of thousands of years!”

“Damn, I can’t imagine anymore. What else is there?”

“Come on, shock me! I’m already prepared to be shocked. My mouth is ready to open wide.”

Shang Lingjun took out the second item from the Storage Ring.

“The second item, a jar of fresh Enlightenment Tea Leaves, roughly three thousand pieces, and the effect is potent.”

“Damn it, Enlightenment Tea Leaves, and three thousand pieces? Does the Qin Family have an Enlightenment Tea Tree? Is this all free?”

Shang Luoyun said with a smile at this moment,

“Yes, I was fortunate enough to see the Qin Family’s Enlightenment Tea Tree, but in the Qin Family, the Enlightenment Tea Tree can only be used as a potted plant.”

At this moment, everyone was in shock, unable to recover for a long time.

Shang Lingjun said solemnly,

“Don’t tell me, this Qin Family even has many Enlightenment Tea Trees?”

Shang Luoyun said with a smile,

“Many, and not just a few. When I went there, I saw the Qin Family using scissors to prune the Enlightenment Tea Tree.”

They were all dumbfounded, everyone was dumbfounded.

“Damn it, if my Shang Family had an Enlightenment Tea Tree, I would definitely worship it like an Old Ancestor! How could the Qin Family bear to prune it with scissors? This is simply a waste of Heavenly resources!”

At this moment, everyone was heartbroken, as if Ji Ziyue was not pruning an Enlightenment Tea Tree, but their Old Ancestor.

“The third item is two Medicinal Pills. I don’t know what kind of Medicinal Pills they are, because I’ve never seen them before, but judging from the concentration of Spiritual Qi they emit, they are definitely no lower than Emperor-grade nine.”

And Shang Luoyun recognized what kind of Medicinal Pills they were at a glance, after all, her time spent in the Qin Family wasn’t in vain.

Shang Luoyun said in shock,

“Old Ancestor, you are blessed! You are blessed! Do you know what kind of Medicinal Pills these are?”

Upon hearing this, Shang Batian’s heart pounded, and then he looked at Shang Luoyun.

“Shang Luoyun, what kind of Medicinal Pills are these? Are they very precious?”

Shang Luoyun suppressed the shock in her heart and then said word by word,

“Old Ancestor, this Medicinal Pill doesn’t have much effect on others, but for you, for all Nine Revolution Great Emperors, it is a dream treasure!”

“Because this Medicinal Pill has an overbearing name. . . . . .”

“Emperor Venerable Pill”

“Old Ancestor, do you know the value of this Medicinal Pill now?”

Shang Batian’s hands were trembling at this moment, and he murmured,

“Emperor Venerable Pill, Emperor Venerable Pill, could it be a Medicinal Pill that can help the Nine Revolution Great Emperor Breakthrough to the Emperor Venerable Realm?”

Shang Luoyun said with a smile,

“Yes, so I said, Old Ancestor, you are blessed. In the future, my Shang Family will definitely be able to give birth to an Emperor Venerable Realm expert! Then will my Shang Family still need to fear the Law Enforcement Hall?”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s faces flushed, and Shang Batian’s nose was gushing blood, unable to stop it. This was a rise in blood pressure!

“Holy crap, with this Emperor Venerable Pill, why would I still need the Xuantian Teleportation Talisman?”

Suddenly, Shang Lingjun put away the Medicinal Pill.

“Lingjun, what do you mean by this?”

Shang Lingjun said at this moment,

“Old Ancestor, you forgot, you pushed Shang Luoyun to Ouyang Jin back then. You forgot so quickly.”

“If I hadn’t strongly opposed it back then, would you be able to obtain the Emperor Venerable Pill now?”

At this moment, Shang Batian fell silent and slowly retreated to the side. He knew that he truly wasn’t qualified to take this Medicinal Pill.

“Shang Luoyun, I’m sorry, what I did back then was wrong. I apologize to you.”

Shang Luoyun said,

“Father, Old Ancestor has already admitted his mistake, just give him one. Besides, Old Ancestor has always been very good to me, I forgive Old Ancestor.”

Shang Lingjun said with a smile,

“Shang Luoyun, I was just fighting for you. If you hadn’t escaped back then, your father would only be able to collect your corpse now.”

Then Shang Lingjun handed the Emperor Venerable Pill to Shang Batian.

“Old Ancestor, in the Shang Family, only you are qualified to consume this Medicinal Pill. I hope Old Ancestor can quickly advance to the Emperor Venerable Realm with the help of this Medicinal Pill.”

Shang Batian took the Emperor Venerable Pill with trembling hands and then slowly placed it in a jade box.

“The fourth item is an Emperor Weapon of unknown specific grade.”

After saying that, Shang Lingjun took out a bell-shaped Magic Treasure.

Suddenly, an old man emerged from the bell, emitting a powerful pressure.

“A bunch of inexperienced fellows, you actually compare me to an Emperor Weapon. Let me tell you, this old man’s name is Soul-Seizing, and this Magic Treasure is called Soul-Seizing Bell, an Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon.”

“I really don’t know why my master sent me to you inexperienced fellows, but since master has entrusted me to you, then you shall enshrine me. I can suppress your Family’s Luck for a million years without decline.”

After speaking, Soul-Seizing flew into the Soul-Seizing Bell, and the surrounding pressure instantly eased.

Everyone was stunned for a few seconds, then Shang Lingjun and all the Qin Family members immediately knelt down.

Shang Lingjun respectfully said,

“Welcome the Soul-Seizing Bell into the Ancestral Hall. From now on, the Soul-Seizing Bell will be the Shang Family’s Family- 鎮族神兵 (Town-Family Divine Weapon). If anyone dares to disrespect it, they will be expelled from the Family.”
