"Um... It's my business!"

"You!"

The elder, who had just calmed down for a while, burst into flames again after Zheng-Fu refused to answer his question nicely and even spoke to annoy him back.

"Just wait for me, kid. When I can get out of here, you surely won't survive!" said the elder fiercely, threatening to defeat Zheng-Fu when his chance came.

"Alright, I accept the challenge... And don't forget to come back and do as you say, rotten oldy," said Zheng-Fu with a smile on his face before standing up from where he engraved the spell formation and returning to his bedroom to rest, ignoring the elder, whatever he would say in response.

A day had passed...

After having slept for one full day, Zheng-Fu began to continue his spell's characters. While he was engraving the spell pattern, there was news sent from Hai-Dong in In-See City that he had found the movement of a mysterious group of people outside the city. But those people did not enter the city; instead, they ran back out.

"Did they notice? Good, let them think that way, so I can have more time to finish the clan defensive spell as soon as possible," Zheng-Fu muttered happily in his throat, knowing that the other party had withdrawn, which would give him more time. Zheng-Fu did not hesitate and rushed to finish engraving his spell pattern as quickly as he could.

A week had passed...

Whoosh!!!

"Succeed! It finally succeeded... Phew... Damn tired!" Zheng-Fu's shout rang out after he finally accomplished it, having spent a total of ten days crafting this spell pattern.

Although this spell pattern was not the best, it was not a low-level spell that could be easily destroyed. It was because this spell pattern was a spell of the Evil Monster Tribe from the Hell Region, mixed with Zheng-Fu's new knowledge, that made it better and removed the aura of the demon.

Zheng-Fu made this spell extremely strong. To destroy this spell required more than four martial masters at the high level of the Divine Emperor stage. If it was lower than that, even as many as a hundred people could not do anything to it.

Surely no sect, or any cult or clan, could have the high-level Divine Emperor stage martial masters in such a number, so Zheng-Fu was very confident with this defensive spell pattern. But his work was not over yet; there were still more spell traps left for him to do.

These traps would be the first line of defense for their clan. Although they could not inflict damage or hurt on strong people at the high level of the Immortal Soul stage or above, they could inflict serious injury and even death on those at the lower level. Moreover, this type of spell pattern was one of the group attacks.

The situation during this period remained calm as usual. After the assassins withdrew, none of them moved again. There were only people from the capital city who frequented it for business and general dealings as before. Other than that, they were villagers who migrated around the city.

Of course, Lao-Ying-Ba had already ordered officers to go out and check on these people regularly. He was afraid that there would be some spies or malicious people hidden in them. However, nothing unusual was found at all. As for Hai-Dong, he continued to patrol the city.

Within the Beyond Earth Sect, all the disciples were now ordered to train harder than before. If one could level up one level, they would get more resources. And one who could advance energy to the high level of the Golden Core stage would immediately become an inner disciple.

After this new criterion was announced, the sect's disciples were all overjoyed because, normally, being promoted to the inner disciples was not an easy task. Besides passing the energy test, they had to pass the mental test too.

But this time, as long as their energy reached the highest level or the ninth level of the Golden Core stage, they could immediately become an inner disciple. There were already over a thousand outer disciples who had reached that level of energy; therefore, they were immediately promoted to inner disciples.

As for anyone who could cultivate energy to the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage, they would instantly become the prime disciples as well. There were already dozens of people who had such abilities and energy levels, and almost all of them were the ones that Zheng-Fu had helped or saved.

Even the city governor's commanders or grandchildren of great clans also received this benefit. Because they were supported by both the clan and the sect, they had a higher energy level than those of lower wealth. Therefore, having received this privilege made them very happy.

The news of the Beyond Earth Sect's disciple leveling right now was big news within In-See City and other surrounding cities and even further into the capital city, where all the cultivators wanted to join the Beyond Earth Sect. Because even the large sects that had been established for a long time were unable to support their own disciples this much.

Besides the disciples, the sect's elders and senior masters also received many benefits. In addition, the Apothecary Association, which was previously integrated into the Beyond Earth Sect, had developed quite a bit of energy and potions based on the formula given by Zheng-Fu.

This allowed them to invent new medicine pills that enabled those who had bottlenecked at the Golden Core stage to the Nascent Soul stage to successfully break through to the next level. This success could shake many large empires.

Having only ten to a hundred martial masters at the Nascent Soul stage was not a big deal yet. But if they could produce millions of energy-level-breaking pills, they would be able to create countless martial masters at the Nascent Soul stage. That meant the strength and power of the kingdom would have increased even more.

Of course, Zheng-Fu would not let this news escape. Therefore, all apothecaries from the Apothecary Unit would not be allowed to go out during this period until Zheng-Fu returned to the sect.

Five days had passed...

Zheng-Fu finally finished casting all the attack trap spells he had in mind, which were placed in more than two hundred places. After he had cast the last trap spell, he returned to the hall of the clan's main residence to meet with the elders and clan leader as he had summoned.

The main residence of the clan...

"Clan Leader, what's going on? Why did you summon everyone together today?" Hai-Gu's voice rang out after he entered the hall.

"I can't tell either. Because this is a request from Nephew Zheng-Fu," Mo-Zi replied to Hai-Gu, for he did not know either. He was just following Zheng-Fu's request.

"Nephew Zheng-Fu's request?"

Creak!

"That's right, Uncle Hai-Gu... It was me who asked the Clan Leader to summon everyone today," suddenly, the door to the hall opened, and Zheng-Fu's voice sounded before he appeared.

"Nephew Zheng-Fu...! Why did you summon us today?" Hai-Gu immediately turned to Zheng-Fu and asked, as he was very suspicious and excited about what was going on.

"I have Clan Leader summoning everyone today because I've got two things to share with you. First, I've already created defensive spells and cast them around our clan, including over two hundred attack trap spells. Which, if anyone is hit by this trap spell, he'll just be messed up! Messed up! Messed up! Messed up like shit!

And the second matter is that I'll have to set off again soon."

Huh...!?

Everyone was shocked when they heard what Zheng-Fu had said. They were still dazed and unable to comprehend and were unable to process what Zheng-Fu was talking about. But someone had a little bit of understanding of the topic of spells.

"What did you say just now? You've cast the spells around our clan? And if someone in the clan steps on it, that will person be messed up, messed up, messed up, messed up like shit, as you said?" an elder suddenly asked, with a real need for an answer, because from what he heard Zheng-Fu say, this spell did not even distinguish who was who.

"That's why I summoned everyone today," Zheng-Fu said with a sly smile on the corner of his lips. Then he took some things out and continued, "These are jade plaques for controlling the activation of spells. Whoever has put a drop of blood in these jade plaques, when being hit by those spells, there'll be no effect. Just dropping your blood on these jade plaques is enough."

After finishing speaking, Zheng-Fu lightly used his energy to pass one of these three jade plaques to Mo-Zi, one to his father, and another plaque to his Uncle Hai-Gu. The three jade plaques were connected to each other; no matter which one the blood dropped on, it had the same effect.

"Just a drop of blood on these jade plaques?" Hai-Gu took the jade plaque and asked again with a puzzled look on his face.

"That's right, Uncle Hai-Gu. But if you don't believe me, you can go step on the spell first and take a look to see if I'm telling the truth or not. And then you can come back and drop some blood later," Zheng-Fu replied with a satisfied smile.

"Are you crazy, Nephew Zheng-Fu!!? If I do that, I'll get messed up like shit before I come back to drop some blood on the plaque. I won't do that!" Hai-Gu suddenly had a panicked expression as he shouted at Zheng-Fu. Because he would not be foolish to go out and test it, knowing that it had to be real.

Ha ha ha!!!

The previously tense atmosphere immediately changed after everyone saw Hai-Gu's expression. And at the same time, joyful laughter rang out.

When the three elders understood, they immediately dropped their own blood onto the jade plaques. Then Kong-Shi and Hai-Gu separated to collect the blood of all the remaining clan members. Mo-Zi's plaque was slightly different from that of Kong-Shi and Hai-Gu; it could take away anyone's blood. It was intended for use with guests visiting the clan when they went back.

The half-month wasted on this task was extremely rewarding for Zheng-Fu. He would no longer have to worry about his clan. As long as everyone was within the clan, they would be safe. And even if there was an invader who was a high-level Divine Emperor martial master, that person would take a long time to find a way to deal with these spells.

By then, Zheng-Fu was confident that he would be able to return just in time.

Zheng-Fu then returned to his room to rest and contemplate what he had to do next besides ensuring the safety of his clan, including the matter of In-See City and the Beyond Earth Sect. What else should be done besides what he had just dealt with?
