Chapter 247: I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.

The elder in charge hurriedly said: ” not yet, but I have already bought a new batch of servants to replace them. They are all mortals on the left and right, so it’s no big deal even if they die. &Quot;
Just as Pei Xuan was about to speak, a PEI family disciple came in and reported, ” “Family head, elders, zongzi and cousin PEI Ling have already entered the city and are about to enter the residence.”
Everyone’s spirits were lifted. Pei Xuan immediately ordered, ” “Prepare the banquet immediately!”
… PEI Ling and PEI Hongnian were both cultivators, and Yu Xue Zhao was a Foundation Stage demonic beast. Their speed was extremely fast, and they quickly passed through more than half of Luquan City, arriving at the entrance of the PEI residence.
At this moment, Pei Xuan had already brought along many elders to personally welcome them.
“PEI Ling, Hongnian, you’ve finally returned!” Pei Xuan’s face was full of smiles. His eyes caught a glimpse of Yu xuezhao who was following PEI Ling and could not help but be shocked. It was actually a demon pet!
His heart suddenly moved. He didn’t know what the cultivation of this demon pet was like and whether he could ask PEI Ling for it later.
If their cultivation was not bad, then they would not need to obtain the resources from the PEI Ling competition to advance. Instead, they could immediately form a caravan and have this demon pet escort them along the way. Then, they could start to earn spirit stones!
“Father!” PEI Hongnian shouted happily when he saw Pei Xuan.
“Master.” PEI Ling gave a slight bow.
“Good, good, good. I haven’t seen you for half a year, and your cultivation has improved a lot. You are indeed the Qilin children of my PEI family!” Pei Xuan laughed out loud, his eyes sweeping over the two juniors with some doubts.
PEI Hongnian’s cultivation level had indeed improved a lot. He would probably be able to advance to the fifth level of the Qi refining stage soon.
However, PEI Ling … He could not sense any cultivation at all!
However, this was not important. Anyway, the competition had ended, and it was a good thing to be able to get first place.
At the thought of this, Pei Xuan turned around and personally led the two into the manor. &Quot; we’ve been waiting for you for a long time. Come, quickly go in. &Quot;
PEI Ling and PEI Hongnian were naturally not unfamiliar with the PEI residence. However, at this moment, the entire residence in front of them had been carefully cleaned, decorated with lanterns and flowers. It looked as if it had been remade.
All the servants had changed into new clothes and were neatly dressed. They knelt on both sides of the road to welcome him. Among them, a few pretty maidservants had specially chosen clothes that could reflect their beauty, and their eyes were rippling with love, wanting to refuse but also welcoming.
This scene was clearly for PEI Ling.
After all, PEI Hongnian had been visiting his family from time to time all these years since he entered the sect. He had never had such a Grand occasion.
PEI Hongnian could not help but look envious. However, when he thought about the gap between him and PEI Ling, he could not help but sigh.
He might never be able to bring the glory of winning the outer sect competition to the family in his lifetime.
While exchanging pleasantries, the group of people arrived at the side hall where the banquet was set up.
This place had always been used by the PEI family to entertain the most important guests.
Although PEI Ling had been here before, he had always sat at the last seat. Today was the first time he had been surrounded and sat at the main table, accompanied by Pei Xuan and the others.
As for the other tables, they were already filled with the clansmen who had taken their seats earlier.
Among them, there were a few cousins that PEI Ling was more familiar with.
At this moment, everyone’s eyes were burning as they stared at PEI Ling without blinking.
&Quot; PEI Ling, we’ve received news that you’ve won first place in the outer sect competition. You’ve brought glory to our PEI family! &Quot; After taking his seat, before the banquet had even started, Pei Xuan said with a smile, ” you are indeed the well-deserved Qilin son of my PEI family! &Quot;
Before PEI Ling could speak, an elder said impatiently, ” “PEI Ling, you are where you are today because you grew up in the PEI family. You didn’t have to worry about daily necessities when you were born, and you were taught the [ bone forging Art ] when you were young. The PEI family has treated you well, so you can’t forget your family even after you’ve won the championship!”
“That’s right. PEI Ling, do you know how strict glory sect’s inspection of its disciples is? You were able to easily enter the sect because you are a disciple of my PEI family and have a clean background. In other words, without my PEI family, you wouldn’t even have the chance to enter the sect, let alone compete in the outer sect competition?”
&Quot; PEI Ling, look at your brothers and sisters. You’ve won the glory sect’s grand competition, and you’re so glorious. However, the brothers and sisters who grew up with you and are related by blood are still in Luquan City, living a life without even a bone-tempering pill. How can you bear to do that? ”
“Sigh, don’t say that about PEI Ling. I believe that he’s a good child. He definitely won’t let the family continue to decline and will definitely take out all the rewards from the outer sect competition to help the family revitalize and rise to a higher level. After all, it’s a good thing for him if his clan becomes stronger.”
“PEI Ling, what’s the cultivation of your demonic pet? You know, my family has wanted to build a caravan for a long time, but the demonic beasts along the way are rampant, and the guards of my PEI family are not enough to escort the caravan safely. If this demonic pet is at the late stages of the Enlightenment period, you can hand it over to the clan elder who is in charge of the clan’s business. The clan will not forget your contribution.”
PEI Ling did not have much attachment to the PEI family to begin with, and when he heard the words of the family head and elders, he could not help but be stunned!
What did he have to do with the PEI family for him to be able to join the Zhong gang sect?
As for his other brothers and sisters, they didn’t have the help of bone-tempering pills to aid their cultivation. When he was in the PEI family, he didn’t even see what a bone-tempering pill looked like!
If the PEI family only wanted some bone-tempering pills, Jade seed pills, foundation building pills, and the like, PEI Ling had plenty of them in his hands anyway, so he did not mind.
But to want all the rewards for winning the great tournament?
Was he treating him as a free money tree?
Before he could say anything, PEI Hongnian couldn’t stand it anymore and couldn’t help but say, ” “Father, uncles, PEI Ling won first place in the outer sect competition all by his own strength, he doesn’t owe our PEI family anything …”
“Hongnian!” Before he could finish, Pei Xuan’s face had already darkened. &Quot; shut up! &Quot; he chided. This concerns the future of the family, it’s not your place to interrupt!”
“Listen to your father,” A family elder also looked unhappy. &Quot; your father is doing this for you and the family. &Quot;
Just as they were about to continue persuading PEI Ling, a servant came up with wine.
PEI Ling suddenly looked at the servant. This person’s aura was very strange!
Seeing this, the elder who had just rebuked PEI Hongnian casually explained, ” “Recently, many servants in the family have been driven out because of an illness. We don’t have enough manpower, so these are the servants we have just bought.”
PEI Ling frowned, suspicious in his heart. After that, the second and third servants brought up the dishes one after another … There were a total of ten servants, and each of them had a long breath. Even he could not see the depth of their breath.
He suddenly realized that something was amiss, and right at this moment, Yu Xue Zhao disdainfully transmitted his voice over, ” &Quot; dog … Master, your clan is so weak. There are only ten foundation building cultivators. &Quot;
What?
Ten Foundation establishment cultivators!
PEI Ling immediately grabbed the hilt of his blade, and the blood Qi in his body surged.
Seeing that PEI Ling was about to make a move, Pei Xuan and the rest’s expressions changed. A hot-tempered elder immediately slammed the table and stood up, angrily saying, ” “PEI Ling! The clan raised you, raised you, and taught you. Do you want to attack us …”
Whoosh!
In the next moment, a black light pierced through the chest of that elder and shot towards the area between PEI Ling’s brows without losing any momentum!
Clang!
PEI Ling’s blade slashed down, and the black light was shattered. The aftershock of the blade Qi split the table in half, and Pei Xuan and the others who were at the same table were all sent flying. Only PEI Hongnian, who was sitting close to him, was not affected.
This scene was too sudden, and the PEI family did not react to what had happened at all!
At this moment, the “servant” who had just attacked turned his neck and revealed a ferocious smile. &Quot; “Good saber technique! As expected of the champion of the Zhong Kong sect’s outer sect tournament. However, we’ve been waiting for you in the PEI family for several days. Now, there’s an inescapable net here. No matter how much you’ve suppressed the hundred peaks of the Zhong gang sect’s outer sect, you won’t be able to escape from the PEI family!”
“Hand over the heaven-Dao Foundation establishment technique, and I’ll spare your life!”
