Chapter 308 - Obtaining the Dragon Qi?

Words : 1040 Author : The boat is full of light dreams

Take a look at Chapter 308 of "Longevity through Upgrading Buildings": This family might be a little particular... Ji Yuan, watching from the shadows, listening to... See what happens next!

This family might be a little particular... Ji Yuan, watching from the shadows, listening to these words and watching this scene, couldn’t help but sigh.But compared to the Shui Family digging up ancestral graves, he was more curious about where Shui Cang’s bracelet came from.

Did he buy it?

Or was it... given to him by someone?

No matter which, Ji Yuan was prepared to act at any moment, either to kill or to run, ready for both.

"Shui Kai, the one digging up ancestral graves is you!"

One of the elders, face slightly pale, sternly rebuked.

Shui Yan retracted his outstretched right hand, shook his head.

Another elder turned to look at the Patriarch Shui Cang, still bathed in golden light, "Hearing these words, Patriarch, have you also dug up ancestral graves?"

Shui Cang shook his head.

"There’s no need to say much to you all, saying more... is a waste of breath."

"You only need to know, in my hands, the Shui Family will restore the glory of our ancestors, and that’s enough."

With that said, his right hand opened, and a firework appeared in his hand. With a thought, he ignited it, watching as it ascended into the sky.

But just then, a water-blue gleam flashed by.

The firework disappeared instantly.

"Hmm?!"

Shui Cang realized something was wrong, and immediately took out a Communication Talisman... white, with limited distance.

But before he could send a message, the water-blue gleam flashed again, and the Communication Talisman in his hand turned to ash and scattered.

He seemed to sense something, instinctively touched his waist, and even his Storage Bag was gone.

"Who... I don’t know which senior is present, sorry for not welcoming you adequately, please forgive me."

Shui Cang wasn’t stupid; if he couldn’t see the problem by now, he would’ve wasted his life.

Under such circumstances, there must be a senior who had come to Shui Family Manor.

As soon as he finished speaking, mist began to spread over the entire Shui Family Manor out of thin air.

"Two choices, hand over the Secret Scripture you took from the ancestral grave, or... die."

A hoarse voice sounded in his mind.

Ji Yuan forcibly opened his Storage Bag, finding no items related to dragon energy or true dragons inside, suggesting he had likely hidden them.

"Senior, it’s not that I’m unwilling to give it, it’s just that the Secret Scripture isn’t with me."

Shui Cang said with bitterness.

"Oh?"

Ji Yuan appeared somewhat puzzled and curious.

"It’s with the Cyan Mist Wanderer at River Sea Square. I made a deal with him. As long as I give the Secret Scripture, he’ll protect the Shui Family until we have a Foundation Establishment Cultivator."

"Bah, Shui Cang, you traitor seeking glory, taking our family’s ancestral Secret Scripture and giving it away, are you insane!"

Upon hearing this, Shui Yan was furious.

"The defensive methods I’m using were given to me by the Cyan Mist Wanderer, along with many Talismanic Elixirs and Cultivation Techniques. You fool, that Secret Scripture is useless in our hands. Only by trading it for resources can we quickly enhance the Shui Family’s strength!"

Shui Cang immediately retorted, "Besides, don’t you think about it, if there really is a true dragon, can the Shui Family meddle with it?! Shouldn’t we quickly pack up and move away from Li Hua River first?"

Ji Yuan listened to their argument.

At the same time, he checked Shui Yan’s Storage Bag again, finding basically nothing good inside, whether it was Tier Two Lower Grade talismans or elixirs, and the cultivation techniques were all for the Foundation Establishment Stage.

It seemed that the Cyan Mist Wanderer he had never met was likely only so-so.

"Go!"

With a thought, the Flowing Frost Flying Sword appeared again, immediately reaching Shui Cang. His "Protective Golden Light" didn’t last an instant before it shattered with a "crack".

The bracelet broke into two pieces as well.

Ji Yuan immediately understood.

This Cyan Mist Wanderer was likely just at the early Foundation Establishment stage, an early Foundation Establishment Loose Cultivator hidden in the market, and in terms of cultivation and strength, just so-so.

"Wha...what?!"

Shui Cang gazed at the Flying Sword floating before him, finally waking up.

The Cyan Mist Wanderer he so admired couldn’t even protect him.

"Senior, please don’t kill me. After acquiring the Secret Scripture, I made a copy and placed it back inside, and now it’s with Shui Kai, he must have taken that Secret Scripture."

Seeing the situation, Shui Cang quickly became honest without needing Ji Yuan to press further, hurriedly speaking out.

"Oh?"

Under Ji Yuan’s Divine Sense, Shui Kai, standing at the entrance to these ruins, bowed slightly, presenting a finely folded piece of silk with both hands, "The Shui Family Secret Scripture is here, I ask Senior to kindly accept it."

The Secret Scripture... was with Shui Kai all along.

No wonder he was never in a hurry.

With a casual gesture, Ji Yuan made the Secret Scripture fall into his hands.

After reading through it, he found that the so-called Secret Scripture was actually a... Treasure Map? Or a story?

It roughly described how the old ancestor of the Shui Family discovered a true dragon at the bottom of the Li Hua River.

A very weak true dragon at that.

With strength only at the Foundation Establishment stage, the old ancestor of the Shui Family attempted to capture it but failed, then set up an array to trap it, finally relocating the ancestral grave above it as a cover.

For descendants to capture later.

Ji Yuan checked it all out and found that this was all the Secret Scripture recorded.

"Is this so-called Secret Scripture what you meant by it?"

The hoarse voice echoed again in Shui Cang’s mind, and a piece of silk appeared in his hand.

He quickly flipped through it, "Yes... exactly, this is what I dug up from the ancestral grave. That’s why I copied it again afterwards and placed it back in the ancestral grave."
