473: The association's cheap uncles

"What do you mean? Is the surname Feng very special?" Bai Shiqi asked, puzzled. "I've never heard of such a Family in the Association."

"The Association is different from our Dojo; it doesn't rely on the power of Families to maintain itself, and it has even been avoiding the formation of Scions of Noble Families," Elder Bai explained. "The Association has always prioritized ability, regardless of background. But within the Association, there are indeed some Families with excellent genes and Legacy. It's just that these Families aren't as massive as our Scions of Noble Families, and they generally only preserve the lineage of their direct descendants. As for the Feng Family, it is the Association's oldest Family with the most illustrious history, and it is said that it can be traced back to the very beginning of the Association's establishment."

Upon hearing this, Bai Shiqi and Liu Chao nodded with clicks of their tongues. "Similar to our founding Families of the first generation?"

"Pretty much."

"Tsk tsk," Liu Chao said in surprise. "So it turns out Wu Xian is just like us, belonging to a Scion of Noble Families?"

"Come to think of it, the Feng Family has always been quite glorious in the Association, and the shadows of the Feng Family can be found in almost every generation of the Association's upper management," Elder Bai continued. "When I was young, the Feng Family's prestige was quite significant. It's just that they have somewhat disappeared from public view in the last few decades."

...

On the side of the Mechanical Dojo's position.

Wu Xian looked excitedly at the large mechanical device assembled before him, patiently waiting for the birth of the first batch of Flesh and Blood canned goods.

According to Sister Tiao, the flesh of the Flesh and Blood Demon God is also categorized by quality.

For example, the flesh from those Flesh and Blood monsters is much higher quality than the flesh mined randomly from the Flesh and Blood land. Simply put, the energy density is higher, and the structure of the flesh power is more compact.

Not long after, Wu Xian was satisfied as he pocketed the first batch of produced Advanced Flesh and Blood canned goods.

"How about it? Want to invest and make a profit with my Family?" Sister Tiao teased.

"Sure, sure, I'll transfer the funds to you later," Wu Xian nodded happily. "However, send all the cans produced in the Early Stage to me; I want all of them."

To others, these Flesh and Blood canned goods are high-quality pet food, but to him, they are high-quality materials for high-quality scroll.

Every batch of canned goods produced means the birth of a powerful Zombie Picture Scroll.

Once I make the few Zombie big shots later, and combine it with the industrial production of scroll from the [scroll master], I can directly establish a zombie arsenal.

"What do you want with so many Flesh and Blood canned goods?" Sister Tiao asked, confused. "To feed that Vicious Beast of yours? Can't it just eat indiscriminately?"

"Of course not," Wu Xian explained. "I plan to use this flesh to create a special type of scroll."

"A scroll?" Sister Tiao was stunned in surprise. "Can this thing be used to make a scroll?"

"Unpurified flesh certainly can't, but hasn't this been purified?" Wu Xian laughed. "Moreover, this flesh is equivalent to a part of an Evil God; it is definitely a Divine-Grade material~!"

Sister Tiao became more excited as she listened, but it was a pity her Mechanical Scroll system couldn't use it, otherwise, she would want to try it too.

"What kind of scroll can this flesh make?" Sister Tiao asked curiously. "Tentacle monster?"

"Of course not," Wu Xian shook his head and explained. "Don't be blinded by the appearance of this flesh; in essence, it is actually a high-quality material for a Zombie Picture Scroll."

"Zombie Picture Scroll?" Sister Tiao was stunned. "What's the use? The most powerful one currently is just Bai Shiqi's mummy series."

"My zombies are naturally different from theirs," Wu Xian said confidently.

"That's true." Sister Tiao was speechless.

Our Little Xianzi's scroll has always been unique; regardless of the type or category, they are much stronger than other similar scroll.

In one sentence: If it's produced by Little Xianzi, it must be a masterpiece!

"I'll arrange a Zombie Picture Scroll for Sister Tiao later, how about it, do you want one?" Wu Xian suggested.

"Forget it, zombies and such are too ugly and disgusting." Sister Tiao looked repulsed.

"Don't worry~" Wu Xian teased. "What I prepare for Sister Tiao will naturally be a great beauty."

"A great beauty? A zombie?" Sister Tiao's eyes were full of suspicion.

"You'll know when the time comes," Wu Xian acted mysterious. "These zombies of mine are not ordinary zombies; you can understand them as gods of the zombie world."

After speaking, regardless of Sister Tiao's reaction, he stepped on his sword and left.

Just as he was about to rush back to the Club to start working, he unexpectedly received a call from Cui Wenxuan.

Listening to Chairman Cui, the old man and the Old Madam had already gone over.

It seems they want to study how to break into the New Abyss.

Wu Xian took this very seriously, so he immediately changed direction and headed to the Association.

At this moment, the Yaoyang City Association was crowded with big shots, and even the leading powerhouses of various Dojo and factions couldn't help but come in person to pay their respects, and incidentally discuss the matter of attacking the New Abyss.

After all, if one wants to drive that Evil God out of the human world, one must strike into the Evil God's lair.

Right now, fighting back and forth is ultimately just tickling the Evil God and cannot hurt its foundation.

After Wu Xian arrived, several Association big shots were exchanging pleasantries and discussing with representatives from all sides; in front of those few Elders, Cui Wenxuan could only stand.

Because the Old Madam wanted to hide her identity, she didn't sit in a high position, but sat on the edge of the venue, unhurriedly, with the old man.

"Xian'er, come~!" The Old Madam smiled kindly and gestured for Wu Xian to sit next to her.

And the moment Wu Xian sat down, the gazes of those few Association Elders in the high seats inadvertently fell on Wu Xian, their eyes revealing a bit of complexity and curiosity.

There was no helping it; although the Old Madam treated Wu Xian as her own grandson, the few Elders all knew in their hearts that the Great-Aunt had no offspring, so that child naturally couldn't be her own.

If it really were the Great-Aunt's own child, they would definitely value him even more than the Old Madam did.

After all, if it were her own grandson, that would be the only seedling of the Feng Family lineage.

But the problem was that Wu Xian could not be the Old Madam's own grandson; he was the grandson of that old yellow-haired Wu Mingchang.

Feng Li, oh Feng Li, tell me, what are you aiming for?

Back then, you were shouting about wanting to be a stepmother for someone, and now you are rushing over to be a step-grandmother.

If Old Man Feng were still alive, he would probably be angered to death by you~!

But having said that, this little guy named Wu Xian seems very excellent; Little Cui here speaks highly of this child, and his evaluation is surprisingly high.

In the future development of the Association, they are naturally happy to accept him.

Who told this little guy to have good luck and pick up a cheap step-grandmother?

Besides, their Association has always welcomed and cherished talent.

After the few Association Elders sighed inwardly, their attention returned to the main business. The way they spoke was so official, and they didn't get to the point for a long time, which left Wu Xian speechless.

Old guys seem to always like to beat around the bush when they talk, especially those old guys in high positions, even more so.

"Are those few the Association's Grand Elders?" Wu Xian asked his grandmother, Feng Li, curiously. "The way they speak is just too..."

"Yes, after the meeting of all parties ends, I will introduce you to them." The Old Madam smiled and nodded. "In terms of seniority, they are all your great-uncles."

"Biological great-uncles?" Wu Xian confirmed.

"Of course not, your great-grandfather only had me as his one and only seedling," Old Madam Feng Li laughed. "However, the several Families in the Association are all Family friends, and they have always treated each other as cousins. The one in the very middle is also surnamed Feng; that one is a true cousin, he is my cousin."

Wu Xian understood; previously, Elder Bai of the Dengfeng Dojo had also spoken about the situation of the Association's Families, so Wu Xian was not surprised by this situation.

"That... are the great-uncles willing to accept me? After all..." Wu Xian felt conflicted.

Recognizing the grandmother here is nothing; after all, she was the old man's old flame, and she had also raised his own biological parents back then.

But the situation with this bunch of so-called great-uncles is quite awkward.

"They have to acknowledge you whether they want to or not; it's not up to them," Old Madam Feng Li said, her plain words revealing a hint of inexplicable toughness. "Xian'er is the only seedling of my Feng Family."

"Ah?" Wu Xian was stunned in surprise. "Isn't that one your cousin?"

"That cousin of mine is not a pushover either; for a woman from the Upper Realm, he never married in his life, so naturally, he wouldn't have any offspring," the Old Madam said crossly. "Come to think of it, the Feng Family's incense was actually cut off by him."

"..." Wu Xian was torn between laughter and tears.

Grandmother's maiden Family is really full of talents.

But having said that, what the heck is "for a woman from the Upper Realm"?

It feels even more outrageous than Grandmother's situation.

Although the Upper Realm person that this great-uncle could be infatuated with is likely not a bad person, this is just too...

In short, I'm afraid there might be some problem with the Feng Family's ancestral grave.

The old man on the side couldn't help but interject. "Does he still have contact with that woman?"

"On the surface, no, but who knows if it's really no or fake no?" The Old Madam's words were tinged with a bit of sarcasm.

Wu Mingchang laughed silently, secretly pondering something.

Meanwhile, on the other side, the few great-uncles from the Association finally cut to the chase. "We have also brought a few Elders from the Odd Department this time. Over the next few days, we will attempt to open a passage to the New Abyss. As for whether we can successfully break in, we old men cannot guarantee."

"No matter, having a method is better than having no method; let's try it first." Representatives from all sides echoed in agreement.

"If it really doesn't work, we can discuss other methods," the representative of the Demon God Dojo said calmly. "If the situation deteriorates further, our Demon God Dojo doesn't mind asking a black scroll to take action."

"The Divine Beast Dojo is the same."

"Our Shendu Dojo's black scroll is also ready and can be dispatched at any time."

Representatives from all sides responded one after another.

Upon hearing this, those great-uncles from the Association stood up solemnly and expressed their gratitude to all parties. "This Evil God invasion is of great importance. That all parties can join in is truly the fortune of our humanity. If there are any gains later, we will distribute them based on merit."

To this, representatives from all sides expressed their understanding.

Although this wave of disaster may not necessarily have major gains, if there is a chance to defeat that Evil God, the gains would be huge.

Therefore, this meeting of all parties today is essentially about stating the ugly truths upfront.

"Gains?" Wu Xian couldn't help but be curious. "What kind of gains?"

"Naturally, it's that New Abyss and the Evil God," the Old Madam explained. "As a True God-level existence, although the Evil God failed to gain the recognition of the Heaven and Earth Dao, if it can be defeated, the gains will certainly not be small. What's more, that Evil God also brought a New Abyss; by then, that New Abyss will also become a blue ocean. But all this is based on the premise of being able to defeat that Evil God. Now, all parties are clearly not very confident; they are just thinking of driving the Evil God away."

Wu Xian understood.

All parties are here for the sake of fame, so they just symbolically sent some personnel over; essentially, they don't hold any hope of defeating the Evil God.

It's just that the lineup the Association dispatched this time was somewhat unexpected for them, with a bit of intention to eliminate the Evil God.

So, the meaning of what all parties said just now is: if there really is a sign of defeating the Evil God later, they are all willing to ask the black scroll big shots to come out and fully cooperate.

After all, to get all parties to go all out, it still depends on interests.

Not long after, the meeting of all parties gradually dispersed.

Before the leading Elder of the Holy Spirit Dojo left, he specifically stopped. "Hello, Elder Wu. Her Highness the Goddess has something temporary to attend to and will only be able to arrive in a few days; she specifically asked me to tell you."

"Did something happen?" Wu Xian frowned, worried.

"Just some troublesome matters within the Dojo," the leading Elder sighed helplessly. "Speaking of which, I actually have some selfish motives for coming here this time. Can you help us open a gap in the Divine Domain? Currently, all parties within the Dojo are still very interested in your Twenty-Eight Mansions."

Wu Xian was torn between laughter and tears. "After the matter is over, it is naturally possible."

"Then it's settled."

The leading Elder's eyes brightened, and he was inexplicably full of motivation.

In fact, among the reinforcements of the Holy Spirit Dojo this time, more than half are people whose guts are green with regret. They all hope that after this wave, they can let Wu Xian ignore past grievances and establish some connection of Law 脈絡 with those powerful Twenty-Eight Mansions in the Divine Domain.

There is no helping it; currently, the performance of [Twenty-Eight Mansions] in the Holy Spirit Divine Domain is just too damn strong.

Especially during the last few times Wu Xian summoned the Holy Spirit, the situation and changes in the Holy Spirit Divine Domain were simply outrageous.

Let's put it this way, nowadays in the Holy Spirit Dojo, whoever can still remain reserved is a fool.

And those who established Law connections with the Twenty-Eight Mansions back then have long since soared into the sky.

The Goddess Xu Cunxin also took advantage of this to launch a wave of thunderous measures.

It feels like it won't be long before the entire Holy Spirit Dojo can become a truly solid block.

Watching the Holy Spirit Dojo representative leave happily, the Old Madam on the side couldn't help but be surprised. "Since when did Xian'er become an Elder of the Holy Spirit Dojo?"

"It's just an honorary Elder," Wu Xian explained. "I have a set of divine scroll that is quite suitable for the Holy Spirit Divine Domain. Not long ago, it was just integrated into the Holy Spirit Divine Domain, and it feels pretty good."

"No wonder the Holy Spirit Dojo has been making such a big move recently." The Old Madam realized.

"The Holy Spirit Dojo is making a big move?" Wu Xian asked curiously.

"Yes," the Old Madam teased. "That little girl from the Xu Family will soon be truly covering the sky with one hand. Speaking of which, that old brother from the Xu Family suddenly rejuvenated; is that also related to Xian'er?"

Wu Xian smiled and said nothing.

"I guess so too," the Old Madam smiled knowingly. "It seems that your relationship with that little girl from the Xu Family is quite good."

Chief Disciple, how could the relationship not be solid?

However, Wu Xian didn't say it explicitly; after all, there were many other people present.

But the old man already knew about it and secretly transmitted the situation to the Old Madam via Divine Thought, which shocked the Old Madam.

And while the Old Madam was bewildered, the few cheap great-uncles from the Association also gathered over with complicated expressions.

"Old sister, oh old sister, you have mobilized all of us this time." The Association great-uncles were full of resentment.
