Cultivation Starting from Full Talent-Chapter 467 - 465: Registered Disciple

"What?"

The people of the Xu Family exploded in an instant, many were terror-stricken.

"You old beast, give me back my daughter’s life!"

"I’m going to fight you, give me back my child’s life!"

For a moment, members of the Xu Family Cultivators each wore an expression of disbelief.

"Daddy..."

That girl, Xu Zhongyao, instantly had tears in her eyes: "Cousins... were really eaten by this old beast..."

"Xu Jian!"

An elder from the family at the Qi Refining Ninth Level roared: "What are you waiting for? Even if the Xu Family were to die out entirely and be eaten by this old beast, it’s better than being domesticated here by it, perpetually sending generations of our descendants as its food! Why has the Xu Family lost even this bit of integrity!"

"Pfft~~"

Outside the prohibition, the Rat Spirit gave a mocking smile, saying: "Integrity? Ever since your Xu family was confined here, what integrity is there to speak of? Xu Jian, I’ll give you a way out – choose two from your clan to enter the Foundation Establishment immediately, otherwise, your daughter Xu Zhongyao will be counted as one of the two for this year!"

"You!"

Xu Jian gritted his teeth: "Zhong Yao hasn’t even established her foundation yet..."

"So what?"

The Rat Spirit sneered: "Xu Zhongyao is the best Immortal Seed of the Xu Family’s generation, sixteen years old, late Qi Refinement, Third Grade Water Spirit Root. Eating her would surely taste delightful. I’ll give you the time of one incense stick to decide."

"Daddy!"

Xu Zhongyao hurriedly cried, saying: "Let’s fight him... we can’t keep sending people out anymore!"

"Family Head!"

A group of Xu Family Cultivators also showed anger: "We would rather all die in battle than suffer such humiliation. If we die in battle, we can still face our ancestors. If we continue to pretend not to know like before and live such a life, how can we face our ancestors after that?!"

"That’s right... everyone is correct..."

Xu Jian clenched his teeth, slowly slid a Spiritual Artifact Level Treasure Sword from his sleeve, his eyes brimming with rage: "You damned rat, you old beast, after eating so many of my Xu Family, even if we are shattered to pieces today, we will fight you!"

"Like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, really laughable."

From the periphery, the Rat Spirit sneered, saying: "With just you, you think you can contend with me?"

As he spoke, he suddenly stamped his foot, and immediately an overwhelming Golden Core Spiritual Pressure swept through within the prohibition. In an instant, including the Family Head Xu Jian, the group of Xu Family Cultivators was crushed by the spiritual pressure, unable to move and their faces pale, sweating profusely.

"With you trash, how dare you resist me?"

The Golden Core Stage Rat Spirit showed a mocking smile: "Today, I will devour your Xu Family completely... Xu Jian, you trash, wanted to lead the resistance against me, right? Fine, let’s start with your precious daughter."

As he spoke, he looked towards the girl Xu Zhongyao, his gaze gradually turning blood-red, his body demonically swelling, transforming into a particularly ferocious Rat Demon.

"Daddy..."

Xu Zhongyao was so terrified that her face turned deathly pale, crying incessantly.

"This old beast..."

Within the clan, the young men still roared: "We... even if we are to be shattered to pieces, we will fight him..."

"Hmph, a bunch of trash."

The Rat Spirit’s gaze turned cold, saying: "All together, get rid of them!"

"Yes, Ancestor!"

Behind him, a group of Foundation Establishment Stage men and women appeared, their bodies bent, transforming into large black rats, all descendants of the Golden Core Rat Demon.

The Xu Family stood agape, many children and women started crying out loud.

The crying of children and women further fueled the malicious energy of the Rat Demons, as they stepped over the prohibition looking increasingly ferocious.

...

But just at this moment, a voice came from a nearby tree—

"Fellow Daoists, spare some lives!"

"Hmm?"

The Golden Core Stage Rat Spirit suddenly looked up, only to see a young man in a green robe standing on air, his eyes extremely cold as he looked down upon him. The opponent only revealed the mana fluctuations of the Qi Refinement Realm, but that gaze made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave—the malicious aura in his gaze was almost crushing!

"Who are you?!"

The Rat Spirit’s gaze was icy.

"A warm-hearted Human Clan Cultivator!"

Ning Daoran looked indifferent, smiling and saying: "I can’t stand watching the Demon Clan run rampant, so I decided to step in and help the injustice!"

"Tsk~~~"

Several unaware Foundation Establishment Stage Rat Demons laughed loudly: "Kid, what are you? A mere Qi Refinement Realm trash dares to challenge our Ancestor, are you tired of living?"

At that moment, all the Rat Demons burst into mocking laughter.

Unfortunately, they didn’t realize a very serious issue, that being that Qi Refinement Practitioners are unable to fly without external help.

"Boom—"

Instantly, a massive storm of mana erupted from Ning Daoran as the center, followed by an overpowering spiritual pressure crushing in all directions!

The Golden Core Early Stage Rat Demon Ancestor bore the brunt, immediately feeling as if all his bones were being crushed, involuntarily kneeling towards the other side.

The rest of the Rat Demons almost had their eyes bulging out, not understanding how this young cultivator, appearing from nowhere, held such divine powers.

This was a kind of power the Rat Demons had never experienced in their lives.

"Alright."

Ning Daoran stood on air, his gaze indifferent as he looked at the Rat Demon Ancestor, saying: "Now you can die with a clear understanding..."

"Don’t..."

The Rat Demon Ancestor’s face turned pale as he hurriedly kowtowed, "Senior, please don’t... don’t do it..."

In the next moment, Ning Daoran descended from the sky and chopped down with his foot!

Under everyone’s gaze, that once invincible ancestor instantly transformed into a pile of flesh, the so-called Golden Core Demon Beast couldn’t even withstand his single foot, and was trampled to death in an instant!

"You..."

A group of Rat Demons stared in disbelief.

"This... this senior, we have no grievances with you, the idea of trapping human cultivators was all the Ancestor’s, it was also the Ancestor who did everything, we did nothing..."

"Please spare us a way to live, it would be a great mercy!"

...

"You..."

Ning Daoran’s gaze was indifferent as he said, "You’ve aided tyranny, naturally, none of you should hope to live, all must die!"

Saying so, he waved his hand.

Instantly, a second wave of spiritual pressure spread massively towards the group of Rat Demons.

This time it was not only spiritual pressure, but also the killing intent hidden within!

The ground crazily collapsed, and the Rat Demons didn’t even have the chance to escape; one by one, they were turned into a shower of blood under the spiritual pressure. Hundreds of Rat Demons, none could escape, all were slain, and the ground several miles ahead sank by several meters!

At this moment, Ning Daoran himself was surprised by the strength of the spiritual pressure he deployed, it was incredibly powerful!

It took a while for the members of the Xu Family to recover from their shock.

Many couldn’t believe what had just occurred, this young cultivator who appeared suddenly, who was he that he could effortlessly slaughter a group of Rat Demons!

Even that detestable Golden Core Rat Demon Ancestor didn’t last a single move under him, what mighty divine power was this!?

"Could it be..."

Family Head Xu Jian wanted to suggest that the other party was a Nascent Soul Senior, but he could also sense that Ning Daoran was just a Late-stage Golden Core, yet so inexplicably strong in that stage.

"Thud..."

Xu Jian was the first to kneel down, saying, "Senior has saved my Xu Family, granting us a new lease on life. For my Xu Family, even serving as slaves generation after generation wouldn’t be too much!"

The other family members also knelt down.

"No need to kneel, all rise."

Ning Daoran flicked his sleeve, saying, "With the Rat Demons causing havoc, capable cultivators from our human clan should indeed intervene. I just happened upon this, there’s no need for such actions from you, rise immediately!"

"Yes, senior!"

Xu Jian led everyone in standing up.

In the crowd, Xu Jian’s daughter, the young girl named Xu Zhongyao, quietly glanced at Ning Daoran and then quickly lowered her head, not daring to look again. She felt that Ning Daoran, only a few years older than her, was already such a powerful cultivator. Something was already taking root in her young heart.

And for some unknown reason, Ning Daoran also took a special liking to Xu Zhongyao.

Her divine soul and appearance made Ning Daoran feel quite at ease at first sight, an inexplicable feeling, but decidedly not lustful.

However, since he had saved the Xu Family, he might as well save them thoroughly.

"Xu Jian."

Ning Daoran said, "This place is extremely dangerous, and it’s still risky for you to live here. I have just slain the White Dragon in White Dragon River, and now I have taken over White Dragon Mountain, becoming the Mountain Master. Would you like to lead your family to White Dragon Mountain, cultivating the Spirit fields there? Naturally, I will also assign some houses located on Spirit Veins to you, which is at least much better than here."

"White... White Dragon Mountain..."

Xu Jian could hardly believe what he heard. The White Dragon that lurked on White Dragon Mountain was a Third-tier Late-stage Demon King, even late-stage Golden Core Human Cultivators would avoid it, and he had slain it?

And for the Xu Family to move and live on White Dragon Mountain, what kind of concept was that?

The worst Spirit Vein on White Dragon Mountain was Third-tier Low-grade, an opportunity only for Golden Core cultivators to cultivate, and now it was turning to the Xu Family’s turn?

"Of course..."

Xu Jian hastily cupped his fists, "Senior is the savior of my Xu Family; moving to live on White Dragon Mountain is an honor for my family... Thank you, senior, thank you!"

"Hmm."

Ning Daoran said, "I will stay here briefly while you start moving your belongings to White Dragon Mountain. I will escort you to ensure no more mishaps happen."

"Yes, thank you, senior!"

...

Several days later.

The Xu Family members arrived at White Dragon Mountain, where Ning Daoran allocated some dilapidated houses at the foot of the mountain to them and let Xu Jian distribute a few Cave Mansions on the mountainside.

At night, Xu Jian took his daughter to the outside of the Mountain Master Cave Mansion.

"Senior..."

Xu Jian gently cupped his fists, his voice full of sincere appeal, "My daughter... Xu Zhongyao, she possesses a Third-grade Water Spirit Root, and is the top Immortal Seed in our clan. If senior finds her agreeable, please allow her to stay by your side, whether as a concubine or a maid, it would truly be her fortune!"

In the past few days, Xu Jian clearly saw that the senior often looked towards Xu Zhongyao, seemingly very concerned about his daughter.

Xu Jian was a wise man and naturally knew what he should do.

Ning Daoran, however, looked embarrassed. How did he accidentally give off the impression of being lascivious? This was not good; he was a respected senior after all!

"Senior..."

Xu Zhongyao kneeled on the ground and quietly said, "Zhongyao is willing to serve the senior, to become the senior’s concubine."

"What are you all thinking?"

Ning Daoran frowned and said, "Xu Zhongyao, from today onwards, I accept you as a registered disciple. Xu Jian, properly manage the Spirit fields at the foot of the mountain, do not slack off. If your Xu Family cannot handle these Spirit fields, I will drive you out and find another Cultivation Family to take care of them. There are plenty of people who would like to come to White Dragon Mountain!"

"Yes, senior!"

At that moment, Father and daughter Xu Jian were overjoyed.

This senior was indeed upright and impartial, definitely not that kind of pleasure-seeking person!
