Becoming An Ancestor In Another World From This Day On Chapter 205 - Surging Undercurrents

Chapter 205: Surging Undercurrents

It was not just his left arm. All the damaged meridians in his body had also been restored!
Moreover, the surging true essence in his body was completely different from before. It was smooth, pure, and powerful!
It was the high-grade Shen Luo All-Encompassing Technique. Furthermore, his level had also increased from the previous Great Archmage to level-8!
Sensing the unbelievable changes in his body, Dick remained stunned for a long while. He finally regained his senses slowly, and tremendous excitement surged in his heart!
The dream last night was actually real!! It was not an ordinary dream, but a dream visited by the Old Ancestor of the Nicholas family, as Ron had once told him!!!
Thinking back to everything that had happened in the dream last night, Dick came fully awake.
It turned out that… the Nicholas family clan had such a shocking secret! From now on, he was really a member of the family!
The Old Ancestor had already said that his new name from now on would be Dick Nicholas.
Dick would not feel excluded from this. Although he had changed his surname to Nicholas, it did not mean that he would forget his mother.
When Dick walked out into the courtyard, Ron incidentally also came out next door.
The two of them smiled at each other. Ron sized up Dick and asked happily, “By the way, did the Old Ancestor visit you in your dream last night?”
Dick nodded slightly. “I… I’m going to find the family head now.”
Ron smiled and nodded. “Let’s go to the ancestral hall to pay respects to our ancestors. Our grandfather should be there too.”
Then, the two of them came to the Nicholas family to pay respects to their ancestors again. Dick’s feelings were very different from yesterday.
He finally understood why the Nicholas family had placed so much importance on ancestral worship. Perhaps, the members of other family clans paid their respects to their ancestors just to seek psychological comfort, but the Nicholas family was different. The Nicholas family clan really had an Old Ancestor who would manifest himself!
Then, Dick found Norton and told him what had happened last night, as well as some instructions from the Old Ancestor.
The main thing was the arrangement for the Nicholas family for the next period of time.
In fact, it was not complicated. To put it simply, it was to maintain the status quo and cultivate peacefully.
In the following days, the Nicholas family strictly followed the instructions of the Old Ancestor and lived a peaceful life.
Under this peace, there was industrious cultivation of course, but there were also some unknown undercurrents. Many people in the outside world had been secretly paying attention to the Nicholas family. Many people also knew about Ron’s previous outing. Later on, even many things about him in Winterfrost of the Northern region had spread.
Although there was both true and false news, it naturally attracted the attention and discussion of many spectators.
Among them, there were two things that were most interesting. The first was that Ron had taken back an abandoned disciple from the Spirit Ribbon Academy, who seemed to be a descendant of the Nicholas family clan. The second was that Ron had offended the Black Forest faction!
In particular, in the second case, it was said that the Young Master of the Black Forest faction and a powerful person of the Divine Power Realm had died in the Black Forest. According to the investigation by the Black Forest faction, the murderer was likely Ron, who had taken away the abandoned disciple of the Spirit Ribbon Academy!
It was said that the head of the Black Forest faction had already announced that he would seek justice from the Nicholas family.
However, this was only a rumor. The Black Forest faction had not really made a move. There were also rumors that the Black Forest faction had chickened out after knowing what had happened in the Nicholas family not long ago and did not dare to come knocking on their door to ask for justice.
Not to mention anything else, just the level-6 Guardian Spirit Beast of the Nicholas family clan alone, even if the entire Black Forest faction came knocking on their door, it would be a waste.
However, there were also some who commented that the Nicholas family was too rash, and even a little too complacent, to make successive enemies, as the matter of the four large family clans and the Mu Guang Pavilion had not even ended.
This was especially true for Mu Guang Pavilion. Out of the three Chiefs in the previous patch who had died, Chief Gui, who had been killed by Ron, and Chief Ding, who had been killed by Romo, were not known by the outside world. However, the death of Chief Wu and his ambush to kill the members of the Nicholas family clan quickly spread after the incident.
Although everyone knew that the Blood Moon and the Yang Sects were also working together to track down the Mu Guang Pavilion, they still felt that the Nicholas family clan would not have an easy time after offending the Mu Guang Pavilion.
After all, the Mu Guang Pavilion was most adept at hiding and assassination. The investigation by the Yang Sect and the Blood Moon Sect was nothing to them. From the day they were founded, countless people and powers had wanted to find the Mu Guang Pavilion’s nest, but they were still able to survive till now.
It was impossible to guard against assassination by the Mu Guang Pavilion. They might attack the Nicholas family again.
Therefore, many people thought that the recent calm and restrained behavior of the Nicholas family could be because they were frightened of the Mu Guang Pavilion, so they almost did not dare to let their clansmen go out.
Actually, these rumors from the outside world could not be considered to be totally wrong. The reason Romo had instructed the Nicholas family members to stay at home and cultivate well during this period of time, apart from wanting the family clan to increase their strength as soon as possible, was also partly to prevent them from being plotted against by Mu Guang Pavilion when they were out.
However, Romo was not prepared to continue like this. He was just waiting for the best opportunity, and it would arrive soon.
One week after Ron and Dick returned to the family, it was time for the monthly ancestral worship gift bag to be refreshed.
[Ding! Your descendant has completed a family clan worship ritual. You have received the privilege of a Special Gift Bag.]
“The Special Gift Bag can be checked in the System Shop.” In the morning, after all the descendants of the family had finished paying their respects for the day, the System notifications arrived as expected.
Romo immediately summoned the System and opened the Special Gift Bag. The reward he received was: “Human-tier Magical Power Book (random). Price: 1,000 Faith Points.”
[Magical Power Talent+10 for the entire clan. 1,000 Faith Points. Hundredfold Cultivation Speed Talisman is priced at 2,000 Faith Points. Ancestral Protection Talisman x 10,000 Faith Points.]
Romo was somewhat disappointed when he saw the four items in the gift bag.
The items in the monthly ancestral worship gift bag were most of the time just ordinary tools for nurturing the family clan. The probability of a rare high-value item appearing was not very high.
Romo then bought all the three items except the first.
Then, he looked at the remaining Faith Points: 268,765!
“200,000 Faith Points. This should be enough…” Romo muttered to himself. He selected a tool in his inventory and clicked to use it.
[Command Confirmation: The Special-Discount Store Beckoning Talisman has been successfully used. Special-discount store has been summoned. You can check it on the System Shop page.]
Following the System notifications, Romo opened the System Shop page again. Sure enough, in the upper left corner, beside the monthly ancestral worship Gift Bag, there was another small icon. This was actually a special-discount store!
