Chapter 12: Task at Hand

Wang Shenyang was surprised when his family's patriarch suddenly called upon all of the members of the Shen generation.

"What could have happened based on what I know, There are only 13 Wang family members that are considered part of the Shen generation."

Wang Shenyang had no idea what was in store for him when he was called to Fallen Dragon Island, but he knew that it must be of great importance. He flew for nearly two hours across the sea before arriving at Fallen Dragon Island, where he was greeted by many other Shen generation family members.

"Hello, first cousin, it's been a long time." Wang Shenyang was surprised to see so many family members gathered, as he had thought there were only 13 of them.

"Yes, it's been nearly 2 years since we last saw each other, How have you all been?"

"Surprisingly alright," the second oldest Shen generation member, Wang Shentong, replies.

His comment made the atmosphere in the room lighten up, and soon everyone was happily chatting away.

The youngest member of the Shen generation, Wang Shentai, quickly said to Wang Shenyang, "1st cousin, why do you think only we were called for?"

"Nothing really comes to mind." Wang Shentong chuckled and said, "Maybe your parents wanted to get an update on how everyone is doing."

Everyone laughed at this comment, and Wang Shenyang nodded in agreement.

"Are we all just going to stand around and socialize or come inside so I can get to work?" A loud voice came from inside the family's main compound.

"You heard the call! Everyone, come inside now so that we can finish our discussion and get to business." Wang Shentong smiled and motioned for everyone to follow him in.

As they entered the main hall, they saw the patriarch standing with a couple of elders.

"Greetings, Patriach, and to you, elders." Wang Shenyang and the others greeted the patriarch and elders in front of them.

"I've gathered you all here today to inform you that I have successfully reformed my dragon roots and completed partial dragonifaction."

"Thus, I have recovered my cultivation to the middle stage of foundation establishment," the patriarch said as he rose and smiled in satisfaction."

"Wait, before you start showering me with praise and flattery, this wasn't the real reason I called upon all of you." Wang Zhenyan spoke as his face shifted to a serious expression.

"If any of you have been following recent events, you will have heard about how demonic cultivator attacks have drastically increased over the past few months. According to Blue Moon Hall's information network, a half-step Purple Mansion realm demonic cultivator called Black Blood Master escaped a siege in the Red Algea Sea territory and came here to the Black Pearl Sea territory with severe injuries. So many demonic cultivators came to take advantage of his weakness, and ambush him. And here is where I come in. Two days ago, the Black Blood Master attacked Fallen Dragon Island because of its third-order spirit vein, which he thought he could take over to recover."

"But he underestimated the island's defenses and was defeated by yours truly. I had obtained a few items that could help increase any of your blood purities by a percent, as they haven't exceeded 15% yet. So here I am offering to help you increase your blood purity using the items I acquired during my battle with the Black Blood Master."

"I'm confident that I can help you break through your limits because the items I got from the Black Blood Master are powerful and will make a difference."

Wang Zhenyan withdrew a red orb from his storage bag. "These are what I collected from the Black Blood Master, Scarlet Blood Cystals. They are usually used by demonic blood cultivators to increase their blood attribute without absorbing mortal resentment. However, they can be used to increase the purity of our blood."

"As you are all aware, the Wang family aspires to be "full-fledged dragon descendents," and our bloodline power grants us a huge advantage in combat and cultivation speed, but it also restricts when we can break through."

"I'm also not stupid enough to just give it to you like some silver spoon. Therefore, I'll provide each of you with a task to complete, and the number of Scarlet Blood Cystals you are given will correspond with your performance."

"In order to gain the Scarlet Blood Crystals, you must all prove your worth."

"Through these tasks, I hope that each of you can push yourself to new heights and cultivate yourselves to be a powerful force in the future."

"Our family needs strong young members to succeed; I'm sure you all understand why our 500-year-old family only has 30 or so members."

"The calamity that struck 50 years ago, where many of our family members perished, has been a difficult memory to move past, but it is necessary for us to move forward and continue our legacy. To move forward and secure our legacy, each of you must prove our worth and show that you have the capability to become the future pillars to support our family!" Wang Zhenyan spoke with overflowing charisma and pride.

"Alright, let's get right to it, we'll start with the oldest."

"Wang Shenyang, Come forth and receive your task!"

"Yes Sir!"

Wang Shenyang spoke as he approached Wang Zhenyan. Wang Shenyang bowed reverently to Wang Zhenyan, awaiting his instructions with eagerness and respect. Wang Zhenyan smiled at the enthusiasm and respect of Wang Shenyang and proceeded to give him his task.

"Your task is to go and bring the inner core of a Cloud Breaking Beast, which is used for concocting Rank 1 High Grade Qi Breaking Pills that help cultivators of the Qi Gathering realm breakthrough a major bottleneck. This scroll has all the information you'll need to complete your task."

Wang Shenyang was elated at the opportunity to prove himself to the family, nodding eagerly and taking the scroll in one hand before making his way out of the room.
