The night gradually faded, and a streak of fish-belly white appeared on the eastern horizon.
Inside the Yun Clan ancestral hall of Evergreen Valley, incense smoke curled through the air, and the lamps burned brightly.
Dressed in plain, spotless robes, Yun Long wore a solemn expression as he personally arranged the incense, candles, and offerings upon the altar one by one.
Yun Ji, Yun Hu, Li Lingyue holding the newborn child, and Yun He, whose cultivation had just stabilized, had all gathered within the ancestral hall.
Shi Tie, Shi Chen, and Li Pinghu waited in the courtyard outside the hall. As for the Yun Clan's servants, they were not qualified to take part.
Within the ancestral hall, the tablets of the Yun Clan's ancestors should have been enshrined. Yet at the highest place sat the only tablet: that of the Yun Clan's mysterious ancestor, Yun Jiang. It looked rather peculiar.
Within the family genealogy, Yun Jiang "watched" as Yun Long and Li Lingyue held the newborn infant and respectfully knelt before his memorial tablet.
A phantom writing brush silently hovered before him.
A trace of helpless amusement rose in Yun Jiang's heart.
"This Family Card-Drawing Cultivation Simulation Game is getting lazier and lazier."
Even something like updating the family genealogy had to be handled personally by him, the "ancestor."
He recalled the last "unexpected delight."
That had been when Yun Ji broke through to the Qi Refining Stage.
Perhaps because he had achieved a rather unusual feat—all members of the second generation reaching the Qi Refining Stage—he had unexpectedly gained a Card Draw Opportunity.
Yun Jiang had used it without hesitation.
In the end, he obtained an Inheritance Card.
Unfortunately, it was not the Character Inheritance Card he had hoped for, but a first-tier high-grade Clan Guardian Beast Inheritance Card.
