"Is this your home?" Zheng-Fu asked in surprise after seeing the state of the house where the two of them lived.
"That's right, Big Brother. This is our home..." said Diao in a sad tone. He looked at the house before continuing, "It's quite small, but we'll be able to make good accommodations for you in a moment." Diao smiled again as he spoke to Zheng-Fu.
"No need. I'll handle the accommodation myself. I just need some space over there," Zheng-Fu waved his hand dismissively at Diao, then pointed to the wide area beside their house.
Huh...?
Both Diao and Den were puzzled by Zheng-Fu's words. Why did he need space next to their house? Did Zheng-Fu plan to build his own residence? But that would be impossible, as there was nothing around here that could be used for construction.
Boom!!!
Suddenly, a bright flash of light appeared with a rumbling sound, as if a large object had fallen to the ground. This was followed by a slight tremor in the earth. When they opened their eyes, they found that a large mansion had appeared in the space beside their house.
"Wha… what… what happened?! Where did this mansion come from?" Diao shouted in shock, his eyes wide and his mouth agape.
Even Den had a shocked expression on his face; he had never seen anything like this before. How was it possible to create such a large mansion with such a beautiful surrounding area in the blink of an eye? What kind of skills and techniques were these? Den wondered.
"This mansion is my magic item. It can be minimized and enlarged just by stimulating it. There's no need to be shocked. Well, we'd better go inside," Zheng-Fu said. Having finished speaking, he and Jin-Tian immediately walked into the magic mansion.
But Diao and Den were still stunned and confused. They hadn't heard what Zheng-Fu said just now. So, Zheng-Fu turned around and shouted, "You two, come in. Why are you standing confusedly there?" Zheng-Fu smiled slightly before turning back and continuing to walk.
"Er… Ah!!!"
As soon as the two of them came to their senses, they immediately ran after Zheng-Fu. And when they entered the mansion in front of them, they both could feel extremely pure Qi energy. It was purer than any energy they had ever encountered, similar to the Qi energy inside a Qi energy stone, but with greater volume.
They could feel that the energy within their bodies had greatly increased after being in the mansion for just a few breaths. At that moment, Den's energy surged within his energy realm, and waves of energy spread around him.
"Brother Den, your energy level?" Diao, who was nearby, could feel that his elder brother's energy had strengthened since entering the mansion, so he asked excitedly.
"Um... That's right, Diao. I've reached another energy level," Den replied to his brother with a very happy expression. He hadn't expected to advance so quickly. His energy level had risen to the fourth level of the Immortal stage just by entering this mansion.
Zheng-Fu also noticed that Den had advanced to the next energy level, but that was his intention, so he ignored it and said, "The two of you can choose any room you like. But once you make a decision, you cannot change it. And if a room cannot be opened, it means that the room has already been chosen, so you should switch to another room."
After speaking, Zheng-Fu quickly continued walking and disappeared from their sight, with Jin-Tian following him. Since Jin-Tian had his own room as well, he walked to it, which was not far from where they stood.
Seeing both Zheng-Fu and Jin-Tian leave, Diao spoke up, "So, which room are we going to choose, Brother Den?" he asked, turning to his elder brother.
"I don't know which room to choose either. There are many rooms in this mansion, and they seem bigger than they appear from the outside. From what I've sensed, each room has a different energy density. So, which room we get depends on our luck."
Den's senses were sharper than ever after his energy level increased. He could sense the energy floating in the air within this miraculous building. By just looking at the doors of the rooms, he realized that the energy inside each room was denser than in the corridor.
"Then I will choose a room near Brother Jin-Tian," Diao said, understanding his elder brother's words, and immediately chose the room next to Jin-Tian. But the room was already occupied, as he couldn't open the door. The young man then chose a room opposite instead.
Den chose the ninth room next to his younger brother, believing that the number nine was the best. After the two entered their rooms, the doors suddenly lit up with spell tracery symbols appearing on them.
At the same time, a sign of the same tracery as the door of their room appeared on the backs of their hands before slowly fading away and returning to normal.
"What just happened!?" the two brothers exclaimed in doubt at the same time, although they were in different rooms.
But no matter how much they thought, they couldn't figure it out. So, they abandoned the thought and turned their attention to the Qi energy within their rooms, as the energy density could help them greatly develop their strength.
When Zheng-Fu took out his magic mansion, no one in the Silver Body Clan was aware of it. The mansion had a protective spell and a sealing spell, making it invisible unless Zheng-Fu allowed someone to see it.
Zheng-Fu planned to stay there for a week, waiting for the commotion in front of the Mo-Qing Chamber of Commerce to die down before venturing outside to search for news of Qi-Fu-Er's whereabouts.
A week passed...
Zheng-Fu's energy level had increased significantly after staying at the Silver Body Clan for a week. His strength was even greater than before. Besides Zheng-Fu, Jin-Tian had also advanced to the highest step of the first level of the Divine Emperor stage, and just a little more effort would allow him to break through to the second level.
The two brothers spent the week training in their rooms like madmen. Their energy levels had shockingly increased. Den had now reached the fifth level of the Immortal stage, while Diao advanced to the intermediate second level of the Immortal stage.
On this day, Zheng-Fu decided to go out and meet the Clan Leader to ask about what he had previously requested Song-Lang's help with and to see how the Silver Body Clan was progressing.
Inside the main hall of the clan...
Creak!!!
Thump thump thump!!!
"Clan Leader, Young Master Fu-Zheng has come and asked to meet you, sir."
While all the leaders of the clan were meeting, the door of the room opened, and a young man rushed in, reporting that Zheng-Fu had come to see the Clan Leader.
Huh?
"Hurry up, let him in!" When Song-Lang heard the report and realized it was Zheng-Fu, he immediately ordered the young man to invite him into the conference hall.
"Yes, sir!!!"
Shortly after the young man left, Zheng-Fu walked into the hall with an extremely majestic and imposing demeanor, as the energy wave he released was that of a fifth-level Immortal Soul stage strongman, which was even higher than Song-Lang's level.
"Greetings, Clan Leader and all Elders," Zheng-Fu said humbly after entering the hall, clasping his hands.
Zheng-Fu's greeting snapped everyone in the room back to reality. Only Song-Lang and Shuan-Gong were not shocked, as they already knew.
"Nephew, you don't need to be too formal. Take it easy," Song-Lang said, now changing how he addressed Zheng-Fu from "Young Master" to "Nephew" to increase intimacy, as Zheng-Fu had greatly helped the Silver Body Clan.
"Today we are discussing the upcoming rally between clans in the city, which will take place in the next two weeks. We thought we'd send Nephew to compete in this event. May I ask for your opinion?" Song-Lang said with a happy expression.
"A rally between clans? I apologize, but I'm unable to participate in this event. However, if you consider Diao and Den, it might be possible," Zheng-Fu said, immediately declining the invitation to join and suggesting the two brothers instead. He believed both had significantly higher energy levels now, and with two more weeks of preparation, they could compete.
"Diao and Den?" Song-Lang looked disappointed upon hearing Zheng-Fu's refusal and his suggestion of the two brothers. He knew well that they were neither outstanding nor particularly capable compared to others of their generation.
"I can assure you that they are qualified and capable enough to compete as representatives of the clan. Clan Leader, please trust me," Zheng-Fu insisted, staring at Song-Lang to confirm his sincerity.
"Absolutely not!!!" But suddenly, an objection rang out from a middle-aged man next to Shuan-Gong. He was the Second Elder, who had insulted the two brothers before.
"This is very important to our clan. It would be inappropriate for those two kids to compete. Clan Leader, please reconsider," the Second Elder objected stiffly, clearly displeased at the mention of the two brothers.
"How is it inappropriate?"
