C8 (2/2)

Deep into the night, Zhou Tong once again returned to the training grounds. He was filled with joy as he took out the jade box that Zhou Lin had lost to him.

As he opened the jade box, he saw that there was a single white flower with intact stem and leaves. A faint sweet fragrance wafted into his nose. This Jade Bone Flower was a medicinal ingredient used to concoct the Bone Ablutionary Dan, a top second ranked pill in the lower realms. In his previous life, Zhou Tong would not even bother to glance at it if it was dropped to the ground.

Zhou Tong then took out a small cauldron, and with a flick of his finger, a strand of Spirit Qi came out of his body and entered the cauldron, the cauldron immediately transforming into a cauldron that was as tall as his waist.

As he poured spiritual energy into it, the furnace immediately began to burn. The Jade Bone Flower entered the furnace along with some herbs from the pharmacy. In a moment, a round pill the size of a longan formed in the furnace.

In his previous life, besides forging, the side business that Zhou Tong relied on was refining pills. If he were to sell this Bone Ablutionary Dan Bead to the pharmacy, he would be able to easily sell it for a thousand gold. In terms of skill, it was completely incomparable to those mediocre alchemist s outside.

Zhou Tong could not wait any longer, and immediately swallowed the Bone Ablutionary Dan Bead. A warm medicinal energy rose from Zhou Tong's body, continuously washed his limbs and bones, washing his essence and marrow, continuously improving his body.

After a long while, Zhou Tong opened his eyes again, and instantly felt refreshed. As he stretched out his hands, a series of crackling sounds exploded out.

He threw a punch into the air, releasing the force of eight layers, which weighed around one thousand and eight hundred Jin. Suddenly, his sleeve made a ”pa” sound in the air.

”8th level of the Qi Gathering stage, not bad. Against a Zhou Lin like you, it's more than enough.”

Zhou Tong laughed, he stood up and put away the things by his side, the moon was quiet, Zhou Tong was immediately interested, he took out his Meteorite Sword and started dancing with the moon.

Half a month had passed, and autumn had gradually arrived. The originally weak heat in the Cang Lan City had quickly faded, leaving only the clear and refreshing autumn weather, and the Zhou Family Gathering was held on that day.

The family meeting of the Zhou family had always been particularly lively.

Just past breakfast time, the servants of the Zhou household began to busy themselves.

Although there was no battle for the rankings, it was still a rare chance for him to show off. If he performed well at the family meeting, he would also get the chance to enter the family's escort team.

After noon, the venue was set up. The red curtains and red tents were all filled with a festive red color. The over a hundred Zhou family members were also gathered in the courtyard.

Amongst the bustling crowd, Zhou Wan’er was riding on Zhou Tong's shoulder, blinking his eyes and looking around, it was really strange, Zhou Tong had also changed into a new set of clothes, donning a robe, ready to show off his skills at any time.

In the past family meetings, Zhou Tong did not have much interest in them, so he and his father had always been shameless and stayed in the training grounds to accompany Zhou Tong. This was the first time the brother and sister had participated in a family meeting, and the atmosphere was very lively.

On the main seat, sat the four clan elders, all of them were young, all of them had higher cultivation and qi generating state, they were the pillar of the Zhou Family, and among them was the Zhou Family Patriarch, Zhou Yuchuan.

Only after the elders seated at the main seat had taken their seats did the juniors take their seats. After a moment, the disciples of the Zhou Family began to compete with each other on the stage. Although not all of the disciples of the Zhou family had a high level of cultivation, they still had countless magic tools and techniques. The entire arena was filled with brilliant lights and vibrant colors, causing those watching to continuously cheer out from the audience.

Zhou Tong and Zhou Tong found a table that was slightly off to the side and sat down. There were enough tables for ten people, even if you counted the siblings, there were only five people.

The moment the two of them sat down, the others subconsciously moved to the side, as if they were hiding something.

”Brother, when are you going up on stage?” Zhou Wan’er sat next to Zhou Tong, eating some fruits as he came over to ask.

Zhou Tong smiled lightly, extended his hand and patted his sister's head: ”We'll talk about it after they've had enough trouble, there's no point in going up now.”

Zhou Tong was waiting, but on the other side of the stage, Zhou Lin was also waiting, and when the two accidentally met eyes, they immediately felt the scent of gunpowder.
