The establishment of the Chen Clan wasn't supposed to be this grand.
After all, Chen Xi was the clan's sole pillar. Due to her past as a household slave and Thousand Eyes' reclusive nature, her network wasn't extensive. Moreover, her clan had pitifully few Cultivators.
Even scraping together everyone from the entire clan, they couldn't even muster twenty Cultivators.
Even those serving tea and pouring water at the banquet were mortals. As for the Cultivators standing guard, nearly half were Mortal Grandmasters scouted from all over Hunzhou. The only reason the event seemed so grand was that people were showing respect to the Golden Core Cultivators from the Meng Family and Jinyun Valley.
It would take at least several decades for the clan to truly flourish.
"If I'd known this would happen, I would've stayed to practice my Cultivation in Jinyun Valley, even if it killed me. We're talking about becoming a Cultivator, walking the Great Dao of Cultivation!"
