Chapter 88: Chapter 88: Generational Challenges Part 2
As soon as Daniel spoke, everyone turned their attention to him, nodding repeatedly.
Having just taken over as the family head, Daniel still had an innocent look on his face.
"Actually, our family really shouldn\'t be causing trouble outside anymore. Whether it\'s our father or our uncles and aunts, if they\'re not in seclusion, they\'re out and about. "
"Our family has few Emerging Ability masters, and with the world in such chaos, we should rely on Cloudrise Oceanview Pavilion and Sky Sect to recuperate and thrive in these troubled times."
At these words, everyone looked sideways.
Especially Thomas, who had once tricked Daniel out of his candy as a child!
Daniel didn\'t care about the gazes of others and continued with an oblivious expression, "Also, the Black Blood Hall. Thomas has expanded it to 500 members, almost all above the third level of Foundational Energy. "
"We can\'t let them idle around. Send them to Forest Town to take over the mines there and let the new town mayor know that Forest Town belongs to us now."
"Grandma, and your beast academy. Aren\'t there Wind Spirit Eagles in the Silver Iron Forest? Could you trouble yourself to find 500 of them, the kind Auntie used to ride? "
"With Black Blood Hall coordinating from the skies with the Spear Forest Formation, they will be even stronger."
"Recently, our connection with Cloudrise Oceanview Pavilion has been getting tighter, and Elder Dennis is trustworthy. We at Blackwood want to take advantage of the chaos to dominate Tranquil, but we\'re already stretched thin in terms of intelligence. So, I\'d like to invite Elder Dennis over, hoping he could send someone to guide us."
Everyone at Blackwood was utterly stunned by his words!
Thomas, in disbelief, stood up, walked over to Daniel, and grabbed his head to mess it up, "Speak, who are you? Who has taken over my second brother?!!"
"Stop it."
Daniel, unconcerned, shrugged off Thomas\'s hand and continued:
"Actually, our family already qualifies to become a Developing Skill family, but we lack a solid foundation. Once grandfather emerges from the Direct Death Coffin, and our father and uncles and aunts all return, I believe we will have enough upper-level strength."
"What we need to do now is to enrich our family\'s foundation and prepare for the future."
Saying this, Daniel looked somewhat worriedly at the third generation of Blackwoods, "When you guys are free, go check on Uncle Three. He\'s been crafting psychic equipment for three years now, and if this continues, even the Emerging Ability phase won\'t hold up."
At this, the third generation of Blackwoods finally stopped their frolicking.
"We understand."
...
"The family is finally on the right track!" Ethan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Daniel continued to discuss the family\'s affairs in an organized manner, and Ethan wasn\'t surprised at all!
Although Daniel was naive and made silly mistakes as a child, even lacking understanding of matters between men and women, this didn\'t mean he was truly foolish.
A naive heart simply signifies purity and kindness, and also indicates a strong ability to perceive, otherwise, he wouldn\'t have mastered most of the martial arts techniques from the \'Sky Codex\' to a very high level in the Coffin of Eternal Death!
Moreover... Because Lucas rarely paid attention to his children, this kid was raised by Olivia from a young age.
With such perceptiveness, even learning a little from Olivia meant he was extremely clever.
It\'s this appearance, and his always somewhat confused eyes, that are highly deceptive...
He seems born to play the fool to catch the wise.
Even more so, Daniel did better than Nathan and Lucas, more outstanding!
He had Nathan\'s steadiness, Lucas\'s decisiveness, and Olivia\'s big-picture perspective!
"It\'s you, from now on you\'re the one who\'ll do this, don\'t even think about running away!" Ethan rubbed his hands, deciding then and there who would take over as the head of the family.
Seeing the Blackwood family finally sort out the chaos caused by the second generation of Blackwoods, Ethan felt at ease, finally having time to consider his own matters.
Then, he looked at the Spiritual Tribute value in the upper right corner of the game— 113654!
"The Spiritual Tribute value is enough." Ethan excitedly clicked on the martial arts techniques of Lucas and Marcus.
[You have chosen Marcus\'s technique, the Profound Grade skill \'Shadowy Sky Steps\'.]
[Detected that the skill progress has reached 90%, consuming 90000 Spiritual Tribute value!]
[You have chosen Lucas\'s Yellow Grade sword technique, \'Hundred Shadows Sword Glow\'.]
[Detected that the skill progress has reached 100%, consuming 20000 Spiritual Tribute!]
[Would you like to learn?]
In an instant.
Ethan felt his mind clear, the memories and understanding of these two techniques flooding into his mind like a tide!
Bright text appeared on the screen.
[Congratulations, you have spent 110000 Spiritual Tribute points to learn the techniques \'Shadowy Sky Steps\' and \'Hundred Shadows Sword Glow\'!]
Ethan felt an indescribable mystery, he had heard of \'instant enlightenment\', perhaps this was it.
As he learned the techniques.
Even the avatar of the Forebearer appeared in the game interface!
His personal information also came into view.
[Ethan]
[Stage: Transcendent Seed Period]
[Psychic Constitution: Yin-Yang]
[Techniques: Shadowy Sky Steps, Hundred Shadows Sword Glow, Yin-Yang Diagram]
[Trait: Twin Fish Harmony Seal]
Transcendent Seed, that was his stage!
After all, he was a direct descendant of the Blackwood family, able to consume the heaven-defying \'Destiny Altering Ability Pill\', enjoying the most precious resources every month.
Even a dog could train deeply with such resources!
The students at school thought he was of ordinary talent because they were using their heads as urine bags!
Otherwise.
In places like Psychic Gear, even with his complicated identity, those uncles and aunts wouldn\'t look at him differently.
He wouldn\'t deserve to live in the first house at the end of the road!
The teachers at school wouldn\'t be begging him to compete in competitions either!
And... Anyway, he had never seen anyone with better talent than himself.
Glancing at Daniel in the game, who was playing the fool to catch the wise, Ethan felt a bit envious.
He also had the ability to play the fool to catch the wise, but he didn\'t have the opportunity...
"I\'ll break through the Developing Skill when I\'m free." Ethan grinned, looking at another skill in the game—
[Forebearer Moment]
[Use skill, the soul of the Forebearer enters the game world, cannot be attacked, cannot be selected, consumes 1000 Spiritual Tribute points per year, the ratio of real-world time to game-world time remains the same!]
