"aurine stage?!" Zhao Qingqing's face was filled with astonishment.

Although the Zhao Family Patriarch was generous, he was only giving a few Psionic Fruit as gifts.

Moreover, aurine stage could be ranked high anywhere, and could even be used to establish their own sect and build their own power.

Even if it was the Zhaojie s, they only had a few aurine stage. This kind of existence actually said that they wanted to repay a debt of gratitude to the Zhao Family, isn't this too mystical?!

The thief's face turned green and he collapsed onto the ground. With his aurine stage released, he knew that there was no way he could escape, so he immediately gave up on resisting.

"This, this senior." Zhao Qingqing quickly reacted, she returned a bow of respect with a terrified expression, and said respectfully: "I am the third female direct descendant of the Zhaojie, I am here to apprehend the thief who has stolen the Psionic Fruit, I have already apprehended it, and will bring senior back to Mausoleum right away!"

Then, Zhao Qingqing suddenly turned around and ordered the servants: "Quick, tie this evil thief up with the spirit locking rope and bring him to Mausoleum for punishment."

Zhao Qingqing's tone was indescribably excited.

A aurine stage could be considered a big shot anywhere, and when this big shot came to the Zhao Family to repay her kindness, not to mention the benefits she could bring the family, Zhao Qingqing had counted her as a big shot.

Wu Chen looked at the people who were quickly getting busy, and his heart was slightly startled.

He never thought that the people here would actually be so respectful to aurine stage.

In the Paleo-Martial World, although Longwu Realm would also be revered, it still would not reach this level.

"It's probably because Paleo-Martial World had a Great Calamity of Heaven and Earth once before. It's not known how many true astral realm they had lost, so what does Longwu Realm count as, and most sects have a complete set of ancient scrolls, so they can break through step by step. However, this world isn't like this, where every single aurine stage's breakthrough is supposed to be quite difficult, which is why they were so shocked upon seeing aurine stage." Wu Chen guessed in his heart.

He didn't know if his guess was right, but he could only use that to explain why they were so shocked.

Along the way, Wu Chen and Zhao Qingqing started to chat with each other, and Wu Chen also gained a deeper understanding of the world.

The Mausoleum was the world's name for the land Wu Chen resided in. Around him, there were many different places such as Qing Ling, Nan Suo and Wei Shan.

The Zhaojie was considered as the number one family in the Mausoleum. In the entire Mausoleum, only the Zhao Family's patriarch had broken through the aurine stage and entered the legendary Nascent Soul.

And it was precisely because they relied on Infant stage that the Zhao Family was considered as the number one sect in the Mausoleum.

This was also the reason why Zhao Qingqing didn't hesitate at all to receive Wu Chen.

As far as she was concerned, the Zhao Family had the Old Ancestor of the Zhao Family, and no one would dare to come and cause trouble. Even if it was an enemy spy, they would not be able to leave.

"Infant stage, according to this world, the Aurous Core is the Longwu Realm, then wouldn't Infant stage be the equivalent of a true astral realm practitioner!" After the shock in Wu Chen's heart, he also rejoiced a little.

The Zhao Family was guarded by a true astral realm expert. If he dared to make a move with just his Longwu Realm, then he would only have one ending, and that was death!

Wu Chen glanced at the suppressed Thief and sighed in his heart. If it wasn't for him, why would he even think about snatching this item?

However, the thief was tied up with the spirit sealing rope and was unable to use his own cultivation, as if he had turned into a mortal. It was bad enough, but Wu Chen did not teach him a lesson.

One night passed.

When he woke up on the second day, the sky was just starting to brighten when Wu Chen and the others arrived at the Zhao Family's territory.

Because they had to take care of the Qi Training stage servants, Wu Chen and the rest's speed had to slow down, thus they arrived at the Zhao Family residence so late.

It was still early in the morning. Outside the Zhao Family Residence, two guards dressed in red stood guard.

"Third Miss, you're back!" The two of them nodded towards Zhao Qingqing and said respectfully.

"Yes." Zhao Qingqing nodded her head and led the servants in.

"Senior Wu, my ancestor should still be in the main hall. I'll bring you there right now!" Zhao Qingqing walked in front and led the way.

Wu Chen had already told him his name while he was on the road here, but of course, the origin was just casually made up. He said that he was a rogue cultivator, and that he had received the Zhao Family's favor many years ago.

Zhao Qingqing naturally firmly believed in this, and she couldn't think of any reason why a Jindan Stage cultivator would lie to her.

On the way here, he had already roughly investigated the situation of this world. aurine stage was an important human resource here, even if he had any intentions towards the Zhao Family, as long as it was not too excessive, the Zhao Family would do their best to satisfy him.

After passing through a few small courtyards, Zhao Qingqing brought him to the so called great hall.

"Great grandfather, father, second uncle, Elder Yi …" Zhao Qingqing greeted them one by one.

Zhao Family Ancestor sat on the main seat by himself and looked at Wu Chen. A smile hung on the corner of his mouth, and it was unknown what he was thinking in his heart.

"Un, is this the aurine stage expert you spoke of who joined my Zhao Family?" Zhao Qingqing's father, Zhao Dan looked at Wu Chen with a bit of satisfaction in her heart.

Although Wu Chen did not look old, it was not as if there were no pills that could help him recover his youth. The most important thing was that the might emitted from Wu Chen's body was indeed something that only his aurine stage could possess.

Amongst the people present, other than Zhao Qingqing, everyone else had at least the aurine stage. Adding to that, Wu Chen did not conceal his cultivation at this time, so he could roughly see through Wu Chen's strength in an instant.

The Patriarch and the Zhao Family's two men were quite happy with their family's new aurine stage Elder. Of the two elders beside them, one of them had a calm expression, while the other one had a slightly unhappy expression.

"Fellow Daoist, where did you come from? You said that you've received a favor from the Zhao Clan, so you're here to repay this kindness. Why is it that I've never heard of Fellow Daoist's name before?" The aurine stage man that Zhao Qingqing had previously called Elder Yi asked.

Elder Yi's face was pale white without a beard, he looked to be in his early thirties, his brows were narrow and long, his body had an indescribably gloomy and cold aura.

He was the elder who was relatively dissatisfied with Wu Chen's arrival.

The Zhao Family was created by the clan's ancestor, Zhao Wutian. Adding that the descendants of the Zhao Family already had eight experts in aurine stage, it could be said to be the ruling family in the entire Mausoleum.

Originally, the Elder Yi was already dissatisfied with being split into eight parts. But if Wu Chen joined the group, wouldn't that mean that he would have to give Wu Chen another part of the share?

Elder Yi joined the Zhao Family very early on, and had a lot of authority in the family, so although his strength was not too high, he could still come here to participate in the meeting of the new incoming elders.
