Chapter 472: The Beast Cage Reforged

"Isn’t the Wang family’s bloodline good enough?" Wang Yulun floated over and asked.

"Do you know how strong your grandson is now?" Xu Fan replied with a smile.

"Of course, my grandson is very strong, isn’t he?" Wang Yulun responded.

"Can you be more specific?"

"He’s a top talent among his peers, with extraordinary potential."

"Can you be even more specific?"

"What more do you want me to say?"

"Your grandson can now defeat 16 opponents of the same level as you back then, and at his peak, he can take on 21."

"So, right now, one Chufan equals twenty-one Yuluns."

"This clearly shows that Chufan’s bloodline surpasses that of your Wang family, which means his strength comes more from his mother," Xu Fan joked.

"So what? He’s still my grandson."

"If you think that way, then you better train harder. It would be embarrassing if you can’t even beat your own grandson in the future."

"At your current rate of progress, your grandson will surpass you in one hundred and twenty years."

Xu Fan’s words hit Wang Yulun like a wake-up call.

"Big Brother Xu, please help me train."

Wang Yulun suddenly felt a sense of urgency.

"Brother, to be honest, your talent has its limits. Your fighting strength is average, and no matter how much you try, you won’t improve much."

"What should I do, Big Brother Xu?"

After all these years, Wang Yulun knew that whatever his big brother said was always right.

"You could try the money-making path."

"Isn’t it just about fighting strength? We can invest our way to the top," Xu Fan said calmly.

He had been wanting his good brother to take the money-making path for a while now because it would give him a chance to shine.

If his good brother turned out to be a true genius, it would actually make it harder for Xu Fan to show his own abilities.

"Although I don’t fully understand the money-making path, I know it requires a lot of resources," Wang Yulun said. Just from the name, he knew it wasn’t something he could handle.

"What do resources matter? Have you forgotten what your big brother does?" Xu Fan casually placed a hand on Wang Yulun’s shoulder and grinned.

"Even the best things belong to Big Brother Xu, and besides, I can’t always rely on your resources," Wang Yulun shook his head. He realized that everything he cultivated depended on his good brother.

There was a time when he even felt like a failure.

"Yulun, there’s something I need to tell you."

"Have you not realized? You’re my lucky star," Xu Fan said seriously.

"I know a little, but those resources are what I willingly give to you, Big Brother Xu," Wang Yulun responded, sometimes feeling that his fate was tied to his good brother’s.

"You give to me willingly, and I give to you wholeheartedly. As brothers, we shouldn’t worry about the small stuff," Xu Fan said with a smile.

"Moreover, both your sons are in my hands; the bond between us brothers cannot be broken even if the worlds fade away," Xu Fan said with a smile.

Wang Yulun felt touched by Xu Fan’s words; indeed, over the years, their brotherly bond had grown deeper.

"Big Brother Xu, how should I walk the money-making path?"

"Haha, I was waiting for you to say that. I’ll arrange the money-making gear for you right away,” Xu Fan replied cheerfully.

"During this time, you can either watch your grandson or go into seclusion for cultivation."

"Once your money-making gear is finished, you will understand what it feels like to be invincible among your peers," Xu Fan said, squinting his eyes.

This was an unexpected joy; Xu Fan was currently worried about how to fully support his good brother.

"Thank you, Big Brother Xu." Wang Yulun felt a rush of excitement, wondering what his good brother would prepare for him.

"Grape, bring out plan number eleven for the hundredfold return," Xu Fan thought to himself.

"Set the spirit ore configuration to the highest priority," Xu Fan added.

"Yes, Master."

"Your grandson is about to wake up; do you want to see him or not?" Xu Fan asked Wang Yulun.

"I should go; Qianer is probably waiting for me to come home for dinner."

Wang Yulun finished speaking and vanished from sight.

"Sigh, you have someone waiting for you for dinner~" Xu Fan sighed.

At that moment, Li Chufan stood up in the dojo.

"Master Ancestor, I’ve mostly recovered," Li Chufan said.

"It’s almost noon; you’ve performed well during this time. You should go home for dinner," Xu Fan replied.

"I still want to stay and have dinner with you, Master Ancestor," Li Chufan said, feeling that his Master Ancestor must often feel lonely alone.

"You’ve been with me for over a month without going home; your parents are probably missing you, and the Master Ancestor doesn’t need anyone to accompany him," Xu Fan waved his hand and said. For some reason, he suddenly felt a bit lonely himself.

"Master Ancestor, I will have dinner with my parents and then come back to find you."

"Go ahead, go ahead~" Xu Fan waved his hand.

After Li Chufan left, Xu Fan was alone in the dojo.

Just as Xu Fan planned to go fishing at the Ten Thousand-Mile Giant Lake, he heard Grape’s voice.

"Master, the Beast Cage has been reforged."

Xu Fan was taken aback. "So fast? Did you slack off on me?"

In the underground space, Xu Fan began the inspection on the Beast Cage.

"Your speed seems a bit too fast," Xu Fan remarked.

"You might not yet understand your own identity," First Clone said to Xu Fan.

"What identity could I have?"

"You are a top master craftsman whose theoretical level has already reached that of artifact great masters. Since there are two clones to help you craft tools, how long would it take to reforged this thing?"

First Clone snorted, feeling that his profession had been insulted.

"Haha, is that so? I almost forgot that," Xu Fan replied with an awkward smile.

Perhaps due to quickly advancing to the Transformation Stage, Xu Fan hadn’t adapted fully yet.

As an artifact craftsman at the Transformation Stage, he had already qualified to touch the threshold of an artifact great master.

Now, the crafting level of First and Second Clones was equivalent to having a soul in the hall of artifact great masters while the physical body was outside the hall, separated by just a door.

As long as Xu Fan’s cultivation level was sufficient, he could merge his soul and body to officially advance to an artifact great master.

"This Beast Cage has already merged with the fortune and will of the Beast Control Red Demon Clan."

"We have also added a small piece of world fragment into it and infused one of Grape’s clones as well."

"This way, the Beast Cage will become a small world of its own; the beasts and beast race captured inside will gradually be assimilated under this small world’s influence."

"Ultimately, they will become beasts controlled by the master of the Beast Cage."

"Beasts and beast races at the Great Ascension stage can also be assimilated, but they must be severely injured in both soul and body before being sent in," First Clone explained.

"Did you merge Grape’s clone in to maintain the ecological balance of that world? Can the Heavenly Dao rules be modified?" Xu Fan asked.

"Just to maintain ecological balance; modifying the Heavenly Dao rules will be a matter for when it becomes a celestial tool."
