"Welcome back, our ancestor!"

Row after row, a dense crowd of people bowed down, creating a magnificent scene.

Chen Feng calmly waved his hand.

"Very good, everyone has been working hard while I was away."

Chen Feng was very satisfied. The population had exceeded ninety thousand, and they were not far from reaching the milestone of one hundred thousand.

Furthermore, the Chen Family's territory had expanded greatly, forming a huge city around the Immortal Ascension Mountain Range.

It was no less impressive than South Chu City, and it was still expanding.

Chen Feng's first goal was to build the number one city in the Southern Region.

However, Chen Feng's gaze paused, and he stared into the distance.

Taking a deep breath, a flash of anger flickered in Chen Feng's eyes. After his expression returned to normal, Chen Feng waved his hand.

"Return to the clan!"

Chen Feng's voice was majestic as he piloted the spirit boat and landed on Immortal Ascension Peak.

The clan members followed closely behind, each performing their duties.

In the backyard, everyone eagerly awaited, their expressions filled with longing.

In the clan hall, Chen Chuling looked at the clan members who were at a disadvantage, and he had even reached the Gold Core stage.

Looking around, Chen Feng did not find the familiar figure.

"Where is Chuwu?"

"Father, Chen Chude and Chen Muli have established a stronghold in the Chaotic Domain. Chuwu has gone there to guard and deter the weak."

"Oh?..."

Interest flashed in Chen Feng's eyes.

The Chaotic Domain was a lawless place where various forces gathered.

There were countless small and large powers, and there were even several Nascent Soul forces.

It was only three thousand miles away from Chen County.

"I understand."

Chen Feng waved his hand and looked at Chen Chuling, his eyes filled with satisfaction.

"Chuling, well done."

As his first descendant with spiritual roots, Chen Feng had high expectations for him.

Resources were never lacking.

Now, he had lived up to expectations and reached the Gold Core stage.

Chen Feng felt a sense of emotion and was also very happy.

"Chuling, these two spiritual fruits are for you."

Chen Feng smiled and took out two Dragon Swim Fruits, handing them to Chen Chuling.

"Father, what are these?"

Feeling the energy contained in the spiritual fruits handed over by Chen Feng, Chen Chuling was instantly shocked.

"You don't need to know. When you take them, come find me, and I will guide and protect you."

Chen Feng smiled. These things could enhance one's physique, contained a huge amount of energy and blood, and could also improve one's aptitude.

Consider it a reward for Chen Chuling.

"Thank you, Father!"

Chen Chuling knew that the peculiar-looking spiritual fruits in his hand were precious. He carefully put them into a box to prevent the loss of spiritual energy.

The surrounding clan members cast envious glances.

Seeing the expressions in their eyes, Chen Feng spoke seriously:

"For those who have made contributions to the clan, rewards will definitely not be lacking. The next clan member to reach the Gold Core stage will be rewarded with a Dragon Swim Fruit and a Sky Blue Fruit!"

As Foundation Building cultivators in the clan, they were no strangers to the Sky Blue Fruit.

Joy flashed on their faces, and their eyes were filled with fighting spirit.

Having a goal gave them motivation!

"The rewards for wartime will be doubled, the rewards for expanding our territory will be doubled, and the rewards for giving birth will also be doubled!"

For a moment, many people's faces turned red with excitement.

Chen Feng calmly continued:

"Chen Chuyuan, lead ten members from the Shadow Pavilion and the Martial Pavilion to support Chen Chuwu in the Chaotic Domain."

"Expand towards the city of Chumo!"

"Yes!"

The Chen family's descendants received their orders.

Chen Feng waved his hand, announcing the end of this small meeting.

"Churen, stay behind."

Chen Churen, who was about to leave, paused and moved to the side.

"Father, what do you command?"

Chen Feng looked at Chen Churen, noticing the few strands of white hair on his head, his voice filled with emotion.

Chen Churen was already nearly two hundred years old, but he was only at the mid-stage of Foundation Building. Although he had consumed many longevity-enhancing items, his lifespan had reached two-thirds.

Being overly concerned with trivial matters had a great impact on cultivators.

"It's time to cultivate some excellent successors. The family is growing and becoming busier. Dedicate yourself to cultivation by extracting yourself from trivial matters."

"Father..." Chen Churen clearly had some concerns.

"You and Chuwu Chuming are my first children. I don't want to see you grow old and die."

Seeing the sorrowful expression on Chen Feng's face, Chen Churen finally nodded.

"Father, I understand."

Immortality, in the end, is a lonely path.

After the closest offspring and companions have left, even if you have thousands of descendants, you are still alone. They only have reverence, fear, and admiration for you, but not familial love.

They have not witnessed, experienced, or participated in the Chen family's journey from its humble beginnings to its current state.

"Alright."

Chen Feng nodded, feeling relieved.

Chen Churen had been devoted to political affairs, exerting too much mental and physical energy, even affecting his lifespan. Otherwise, he could have had another fifty years of life.

"I entrust the task of cultivating successors to you. However, the family's development will only grow larger in the future. Establish a Family Affairs Pavilion, appoint eighteen elders, and one hundred administrators to handle affairs. Important matters can be handed over to the elders at most."

"Of course, everything will revolve around three five-year plans!"

Chen Feng spoke slowly.

After considering his father's arrangements, Chen Churen pondered for a while and instantly realized the pros and cons.

His eyebrows slightly furrowed as he spoke:

"Father, the authority of the Family Affairs Pavilion will be too great."

"I am aware. Establish an Enforcement Pavilion and let Chen Chuming take charge."

Chen Feng said in a deep voice, looking into the distance.

"The number of clan members is increasing, and it is inevitable that some rotten apples will appear. We must root out these people!"

This was something Chen Feng had already considered.

He had long determined the future development of the Chen family.

When the forest is big, all kinds of birds will be present, not to mention the nearly one hundred thousand members of the Chen family.

These were his own offspring, not to mention the other members of the clan.

Not everyone adheres strictly to self-discipline. There will always be people who take advantage of the situation and engage in inhumane activities.

This was something Chen Feng would never allow!

"I understand. I will follow Father's orders!"

Chen Churen had also considered this matter for a long time, but had never implemented it. After all, both the palm and the back of the hand are flesh, and they are all relatives of the same bloodline.

Moreover, Chen Feng, the founder, was still alive, so he couldn't overstep his boundaries.

"Alright."

Chen Feng nodded, speaking seriously:

"This matter will be the last thing you handle. First, make a list of those who have done wrong, and deal with them all at the next clan meeting!"

Chen Feng's voice was filled with authority and a hint of killing intent.

Chen Churen nodded in agreement and then left the spot.

Father wanted to rectify the family's style.

He had to handle this matter well, without any hint of cover-up.

After everyone left, Chen Feng looked up at the ceiling in silence.

His mood was somewhat complicated.

The family had grown larger, and internal problems had already emerged.

Both the palm and the back of the hand are flesh, but this cannot be ignored!

"Churen, Chuming, I hope you don't disappoint me."
