Chapter 660: Finally Heading To Tianhai City
Lu Xuan seemed to not care about the longevity grass at all!
This was because Lu Xuan was still young. For him, the realm he could reach was endless. Thus, he did not need things like the longevity grass to add a few more years to his life.
However, the longevity grass could save the lives of elders who were in the Divine Transformation Realm.
Even if the longevity grass was not refined into an alkahestry pill, swallowing one could still add several years to their lifespan.
Although only a few years didn’t seem that significant of a change, those who were on the brink of death were willing to live for even a few more days. Of course, they would’ve wanted to live for more years!
That lone Cultivator expert was tempted by the longevity grass!
This was why Xu Tianying had set out with a team of the Xu family’s elites to look for the longevity grass. This was not even the only ship that the Xu family had set out; they sent 10 ships to find the longevity grass. In the end, this was the only ship with people left alive. One could easily imagine how perilous this journey was.
To the Xu family, however, it was all worth it!
If they could not find or get their hands on the longevity grass, the Xu family was doomed!
Although they had now suffered heavy losses, they ultimately found the longevity grass.
Obviously, this was merely wishful thinking on Xu Tianying’s part. Another group of people in the Xu family also disapproved of this method.
They were Xu Tianzhi’s people!
Just earlier, Xu Tianying had interrogated Zhang Tianmian and got the answer she wanted.
Since Zhang Tianmian was bound by the Dragon-snaring Lasso, he had no way to resist. Thus, he had no choice but to confess.
Not everyone in the Xu family agreed with the idea of using the longevity grass to attract that lone Cultivator expert. Some of them had even sided with the Xu family’s mortal enemy.
They hoped to use the longevity grass to get the mortal enemy to spare the Xu family, or at least let go of their group.
In other words, Xu Tianzhi had become the enemy’s lapdog.
This was why Zhang Tianmian colluded with the Blood Wolf Pirate to destroy Xu Tianying’s fleet.
Lu Xuan looked at Xu Tianying and said, “Can you convince your family?”
Xu Tianying bluntly said, “I will certainly try my best to convince them. Besides, the Xu family does not have the strength to resist you.”
It didn’t matter whether the Xu family was facing a former mortal enemy, the Great Ancestor who cultivated on his own, or Senior Lu. They simply had no power to resist or even put up much of a fight.
Without their Great Ancestor in charge, the Xu family had become as helpless as a fish on the chopping block, waiting to be slaughtered.
Among these people, Senior Lu, whose origin was still kept a mystery, was the only one who made her feel a little more at ease.
This was because she could see that among the three strong experts in the Divine Transformation Realm, Senior Lu was probably the only one who did not have any superfluous thoughts towards the Xu family.
Had she never mentioned the Blood Phoenix Fruit, he might’ve not gotten himself involved in the Xu family’s issues at all!
Xu Tianying had seen quite a few Great Ancestors in the Divine Transformation Realm ever since she was a child, but she had never seen one like him.
However, the feeling Lu Xuan gave her was definitely different from the other Divine Transformation Realm Great Ancestors.
Although those other Great Ancestors acted superior, they needed to be supported by various forces of different families and rely on each other.
After all, the Great Ancestors in the Divine Transformation Realm were already a group of top figures in the entire Holy Sun Continent. Since they cultivated daily, they did not have the time to collect several resources themselves.
They all depended on these forces to collect the cultivation resources for them, while the families provided shelter for their forces.
Even though these Great Ancestors acted all high and mighty, they were actually extremely vulgar!
However, Lu Xuan seemed completely different!
Besides, it wasn’t like she had any other choice!
Not many opportunities were available for her to take advantage of!
Even if it meant that she had to take a gamble, she would still do whatever it took!
“That makes sense!”
Lu Xuan laughed. He didn’t have much interest in the Xu family or even Tianhai City, but he was determined to get the fruit.
After all, it was related to increasing his strength!
Lu Xuan said, “In that case, let’s go!”
Xu Tianying wore a joyful expression on her face as she said, “Thank you senior!”
The Xu family’s battleship created waves on the sea for five days and nights before they finally saw the coastline.
Along the coast, a huge city with endlessly towering walls stood not far from the shore.
Lu Xuan stood on the deck, looking at the magnifying city in the distance.
After a few days, they had finally reached the edge of the Holy Sun Continent. Lu Xuan’s injuries had improved significantly. In a few days, his cultivation had been restored to the first tier of the Divine Transformation Realm. Although he was still a bit off from his peak state, it wouldn’t take long before he fully recovered.
As he gradually recovered from his injuries, his skills become more refined. The rate at which he was recovering grew faster.
Now, there was no particular need to undergo private training to recover. His injury was improving at an alarming rate.
The Xu family in Tianhai City could be regarded as local natives in this huge city. Thus, they had their own special wharf to dock this huge ship.
As soon as the Xu family’s ship had arrived, the news instantly spread throughout the city.
The Xu family’s ship had returned with the longevity grass.
After the Xu family’s Great Ancestor passed away, the Xu family had been targeted by several people in the city. Therefore, the Xu family’s every move would naturally arouse the imaginations of many people.
The news of the longevity grass somehow got out.
Many high-leveled members of the Xu family were already waiting in the Xu family’s ancestral home in Tianhai City.
As a large family in Tianhai City, they had tens of thousands of people and hundreds of high-leveled members after years of passing down their legacy between generations.
Lu Xuan’s follower Xu Tianying arrived all the way to the Xu family’s ancestral home and met Xu Hongyi, the current generation’s Clan Leader.
He was around 40 years old, with medium height and a square face.
He was an expert half a step in the Divine Transformation Realm!
Lu Xuan saw through Xu Hongyi’s cultivation at a glance, which was probably not much stronger than Huang Zhao’s cultivation.
After all, the Xu family once had experts in the Divine Transformation Realm. Therefore, their background was quite strong!
Xu Tianying quickly said, “Clan Leader! This is Senior Lu, the one I introduced to you in the letter!”
Xu Hongyi’s eyes fell on Lu Xuan. According to Xu Tianying, Lu Xuan was very likely to be an expert in the Divine Transformation Realm.
However, Lu Xuan looked too young. It was not that his appearance was young, but that he was as young as he looked. It was hard to believe what Xu Tianying had said was true without witnessing it for himself.
Xu Hongyi quickly said without any hesitation, “Hello, Senior Lu. Thank you very much for helping the Xu family. We can’t thank you enough!”
He was shocked to receive Xu Tianying’s letter. To his surprise, Zhang Tianmian had conspired with the Blood Wolf Pirate to destroy the Xu family’s fleet. Their plan almost worked.
