Chapter 550 - 485
The Demon Suppression Sect was rapidly expanding in the mortal world, continuously producing congenital martial artists and gathering enough resources, which were then redirected to the children.
An unfounded rumor that the sect’s master was an immortal descended to the mortal world was quietly spreading in the unnoticed corners of mortal life - in various tea houses and storytelling sessions, among scholars and in children’s songs and rhymes.

On this day, in the Chu Family Meeting Hall, over a month had passed since the clan elders had last gathered.
Compared to the gloomy atmosphere over a month ago when the clan seemed on the brink of extinction, the mood at the Chu Family gathering today was exactly the opposite, with everyone laughing and looking forward to the future.
