“Huh? Didn’t we just call our people back for a clan-wide sacrifice yesterday? Why is there a sacrifice again?” Susan asked, perplexed.
“Don’t ask so many questions. Just do as you’re told.”
Norton then took a bath and changed into a set of clean clothes. He then came to the ancestral hall and looked at the ancestral tablets. He was excited and bowed reverently.
“The 15th generation descendant, Norton Nicholas, pays respect to our ancestor. Thank you for imparting the cultivation techniques to us!”
[Ding… Worship by descendant. Received 100 Faith Points! The Faith Candle’s effect has been activated. Received an additional 100 Faith Points!]
Shit, his Faith Points has jumped from 20 points to 100 points directly, a five-fold increase. It looks as if Norton is not just kowtowing devoutly this time but is worshipping zealously like a fanatic.
However, after thinking about it, it did make sense. After all, paying respect to his ancestors previously had been done out of mere respect for his predecessors. But now, he knew this Old Ancestor really existed, and that he had been protecting them all the time. He had even imparted cultivation techniques and secret manuals to him, as well as the method to create wealth. These were all real, solid benefits. He was even able to defeat a Great Archmage directly, so how could all this not make Norton fanatical?
After the worship had ended, Norton looked at Romo’s ancestral tablet. Romo gave a thought and a faint beam of golden light was emitted. Norton was overjoyed. This was the Old Ancestor’s response to him.
“Don’t worry, Old Ancestor. I won’t let you down. I’ll bring our family clan to greater heights!” After saying that, he kowtowed sincerely again. However, this time, there were no more Faith Points as he could only contribute Faith Points once per day.
On the other side, Zoro, Sonia and others had again been summoned back. They all looked puzzled. When Sonia saw Zoro, she asked directly, “Big Brother, why has Father called us back again? Didn’t the worship ritual just end yesterday? Has something happened?”
“I’m not sure either.” Zoro was also clueless.
Sonia said, “Sigh, my clothing store is doing very well today. In just half a day, it has exceeded half a month’s sales. I also hope to go back quickly.”
“Oh? Is the business that good?”
“Well, I don’t know why but the business has suddenly become better today. It’s very strange.” Sonia said happily. Then she saw Zoro’s happy face and that his usually tightly-knitted brows were relaxed. She knew something good had happened to him and said, “Brother, have you encountered some good things? Why are you so happy?”
“Yes.” Zoro nodded and said, “That’s right, you know, I went earlier today to bring in that new tea. When I got there, I wasn’t confident if I would be able to bring it in myself because the Grimm family and the Campbell family had also sent people there. They are more powerful than us, but the boss of the new tea has actually agreed to cooperate with us directly. Everything went so smoothly.”
“This is good news. Looks like luck has descended upon our family.”
Everyone was discussing happily. As their businesses had suddenly improved, everyone’s mood had also improved. However, they naturally would not have known that all this was happening because Romo had added 20 points to their family’s luck for wealth.
At this moment, Norton had finished paying his respects to the ancestors. Everyone stood up immediately and bowed to welcome Norton in.
After the greeting formalities, Norton sat down at the head of the table, his expression solemn. He looked around at everyone and said, “I have called all of you back today because something big happened last night!”
When everyone heard this, they all sat up ramrod straight. Sure enough, something big had happened, otherwise, the family head would not have called them back so soon.
However, Norlin’s eyes were filled with doubts. He had not gone out. Last night, he was at home the entire night. If something big had really happened, it was impossible for him not to know. What was this big thing? Norlin was becoming even more perplexed. Everyone looked at Norton, waiting to hear what he would say next.
Norton said, “I dreamt of our Old Ancestor yesterday!”
Zoro: “…”
Sonia: “…”
Norlin: “…”
The others: “…”
Everyone became collectively petrified.
Damn, this is the big issue? You have dreamt of our Old Ancestor? Is this the big issue you are talking about? It’s only a dream?
A few seconds later, everyone reacted and looked at each other. They looked like they had wanted to say something but hesitated.
Norton saw everyone’s expressions and naturally knew what they were thinking. He said, “I know all of you may be thinking that I’m making a mountain out of a molehill but let me tell you, this is a very important matter. Last night, in the dream, our ancestor imparted many things to me, including powerful meditation techniques and magical skills, as well as something that can make our family create wealth very quickly. These things can allow our family to rise up rapidly!”
After hearing this, everyone still did not believe it. After all, for such things, if they had not personally experienced them, they certainly would not believe. And they all looked at Norton with some worry in their eyes.
Norton knew what they were worried about. They were probably thinking that he, this old man already in his seventies, had encountered too many troubles of late that he was perhaps no longer able to bear the pressure and had fried his brain.
Norton knew that no matter what he said, they would not believe him. Instead, they would become even more worried. Hence, with a thought, he unleashed the magical power. Instantly, a powerful wave of magical power swept across the entire place.
“What a powerful magical power!” No one had expected Norton to suddenly erupt with magical power.
They were all shocked by the suddenness of what had happened. After experiencing the might of the magical power, everyone was all stunned.
Norlin looked at the nine magic runes revolving around Norton’s body and said in shock, “Nine magic runes! Big Brother, have you already become a level-9 Mage?!!!”
Norton nodded and said, “Not just a level-9 Mage. Look carefully at how my ninth magic rune differs from the rest.”
With Norton’s prompting, Norlin immediately took a closer look at the ninth magic rune. He saw that this magic rune had much more complicated patterns than all the previous eight magic runes combined. Furthermore, the magical power was radiating out, wave after wave. It was very powerful.
“This… this doesn’t seem to be a magic rune condensed from the Waterfall Meditation Technique, right?” Norlin said a little unconfidently. After all, he himself was only a level-7 Mage, not as strong as Norton.
Norton said, “That’s right, these are indeed not magic runes condensed from the Waterfall Meditation Technique, but the magic runes condensed from the Wave Meditation Technique. And this Wave Meditation Technique is a high-grade, silver-tier meditation technique!”
“What? High-grade, silver-tier meditation technique?” Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
