The Fu Clan head was at the Eighth Layer of Emergence from Dust. He had no hope of forming a Golden Core, but he was still firmly at the Emergence from Dust High Stage and held considerable status on Nanli Island.
His youngest son had said that a Blackback Flood Dragon had been discovered outside and that he was going to capture it. The Fu Clan head had been waiting at home when he suddenly heard this voice and was jolted. "Damn... a Golden Core has come? Who caused this trouble?"
This was truly sitting quietly at home while disaster fell from the sky.
But since a Golden Core had come, ignoring it was impossible. He walked out and cupped his hands. "May I ask which True Adept has honored us with their presence? Has my Fu Clan done something wrong?"
"Your Fu Clan has done plenty wrong," Busheng the Real Person said calmly from the air. "But in my actions, I must always heed the Heavenly Heart. Let me make this clear to you now. Your clan's Emergence from Dust cultivators attacked Qi Refining Stage cultivators at the edge of Blackwater Marsh, so I gave them a slight punishment. Now I only want to ask one thing: did you know about this?"
The Fu Clan head froze for a moment. Of course he knew.
If several adepts had hunted a Blackback Flood Dragon, how could he have dared let his youngest son go snatch it? So he cupped his hands again and answered respectfully, "Please reveal your name, True Adept. This is Nanli Island territory, where Mad Lion the Real Person resides. There are rules here."
Mad Lion the Real Person had actually already noticed the aura of a True Adept appearing here. After sensing it slightly, he frowned.
