The next morning, in the Baihuashan family meeting hall, Liu Changxu sat at the head of the throne, with his father Liu Shihao, clan leader Liu Changshun, and the Liu family foundation-building elders in Baihuashan sitting on both sides.
Ever since they learned that Liu Changxu had advanced to Nascent Soul, the surrounding major families had become more respectful and awe-struck when facing the Liu family monks from Taohuashan, which also made the Liu family monks very proud.
Ever since they learned that Liu Changxu had returned to the family, the Liu family foundation-building monks who were guarding various places rushed back overnight. The entire meeting hall was packed and very lively.
Liu Changxu looked around the hall and found that there were thirty-three foundation-building monks present alone.
Including father Liu Shihao, mother Lin Yulian, third aunt Shi Shi, ninth uncle Liu Shijia, uncle Liu Shian, eighth aunt Liu Shifeng, patriarch Liu Changshun, eldest brother Liu Changyong, second sister Liu Changxia, sixteenth brother Liu Changjiang, twenty-third brother Liu Changhui, twenty-fifth sister
Liu Changge, his 33rd brother Liu Changyuan, his wife Li Zhenxin, Wu Yunyue, Lian'er, Zhang Wenjun, Chunlan, Xia Zhu, Qiuyue, Dongxue, sister Liu Changxin, brother-in-law Liang Wei, sister Liu Changxue, Liu Changling, Liu Changqin, brothers Liu Changyan, Liu Changliang,
His son Liu Fufeng, his daughters Liu Fujiao and Liu Fuqi, and his nephews Liu Fuming and Liu Fuyao.
Among them, the second sister Liu Changxia, the sixteenth brother Liu Changjiang, the twenty-third brother Liu Changhui, the twenty-fifth sister Liu Changge, the thirty-third brother Liu Changyuan, Liu Fuming, and Liu Fuyao were the ones who successfully established the foundation during Liu Changxu's trip to the South China Sea.
"Our Liu family now has a Nascent Soul True Lord, forty-five foundation-building monks, 1,100 Qi-refining monks, 10 million ordinary people, and the family territory is thousands of miles round, and the spiritual field...!"
As the head of the Liu family, the fifth brother Liu Changshun excitedly reported to Liu Changxu the current strength of the Liu family.
Although his father had already told Liu Changxu about the changes in the family, Liu Changxu felt heartfelt joy when he heard the introduction of his fifth brother Liu Changshun again today. The Liu family is now different from what it used to be, and its strength crushes all the families tens of thousands of miles around.
.
And all of this was created by his Liu Changxu family.
Without his help, the current Liu family would only have two or three foundation-building monks at most, and they would slowly accumulate family strength over a long period of time.
During this period, the family cannot encounter major setbacks, otherwise it will return to before liberation overnight. This is also the development trajectory of most families.
Of course, the development trajectory of the Liu family is different from that of most families. The Liu family's current situation is entirely due to the rise of Liu Changxu and its rapid development to reach today's level.
Such examples are not uncommon among immortal cultivating families. Many families often develop rapidly due to the rapid rise of a member of an outstanding family. In Youdao, one person becomes an immortal, and chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.
In the Qingyun Sect, a high-level monk can often create a strong and prosperous family, and Liu Changxu and the Liu family are just one of them.
However, a family that develops rapidly under such circumstances will also have many fatal problems. Once a high-level monk in the family suddenly dies and there is no successor, such a family will quickly be brought back to its original shape!
Liu Changxu knew this very well in his heart. He knew that the current Liu family seemed to be very prosperous, but in fact its foundation was very shallow! It was necessary for him to pour cold water on his people.
So, after Liu Changshun finished speaking, Liu Changxu asked:
"How is our family's monk team developing now?"
"Our family's monk team now has a total of 550 monks, all of whom are above the middle stage of Qi Refining. Among them, the ten foundation-building monks are all members of our family. Most of the team's monks are outside casual cultivators, and a small number of them are outside.
He is a family monk."
As the captain of the family's monk team, the eldest brother Liu Changyong answered Liu Changxu's inquiry!
Liu Changyong's answer made Liu Changxu fall into deep thought. The family now has more than a thousand monks, but most of the monks in the family team are outside casual cultivators.
Apparently many young clan members dislike the family team as being too dangerous and are unwilling to participate.
Thinking of this, Liu Changxu began to think about how to increase the enthusiasm of his clan members to join the family team.
When everyone present saw Liu Changxu deep in thought, the scene suddenly turned cold.
"Xu'er! What are you thinking about!"
Mother Lin Yulian couldn’t help but ask:
Liu Changxu stopped thinking when he saw this and directly expressed his thoughts:
"After listening to the elder brother's introduction, I feel that the size of the family team is still too small. Our Liu family's territory is really too big. A team of only 500 monks cannot meet the defense needs of such a vast area!
Therefore, I suggest that the size of our Liu family team should be at least doubled to a thousand people, and that the members of our family should be at least one-third of the number of monks.
In addition, the mortals in the family area must also be organized to build a mortal army of 100,000 people and equip them with sophisticated weapons to make them an important supplement to the family's combat power."
Liu Changxu's speech immediately shocked everyone present. His mother Lin Yulian asked in confusion:
"Xu'er, our Liu family is doing well now, so we don't need to be like this! You must know that doubling the monk team will be a big test for the family's financial strength!"
The words of her mother Lin Yulian actually represented the opinions of most people in the Liu family. They did not understand Liu Changxu's thoughts, but because Liu Changxu's cultivation was too high, they did not dare to speak out against it.
"Mother, our Liu family has developed so fast in these years. There are more than a thousand monks in the family, but there are more than 500 monks in the team, and our Liu family only has about a hundred people. What does this mean?"
Liu Changxu directly expressed his doubts
Seeing that everyone sitting here stopped talking, Liu Changxu continued:
"I think the biggest reason why there are so few clansmen participating in the family team is that many clansmen are afraid of death and dare not face danger!
Since many tribesmen have embarked on the road of cultivating immortals, it must be clear that cultivating immortals is not just about hiding at home and practicing hard behind closed doors.
The reason why I am where I am today is mainly because I have continuously participated in human-monster wars and relied on the spiritual objects obtained in the wars to achieve the level I am today."
Liu Changxu's words caused everyone present to fall into silence!
Even her mother Lin Yulian also knows that most of the current Liu family's foundation was laid by her son and his clan members.
Over the years, although the number of monks in the Liu family has increased dramatically, reaching more than a thousand, most of them are unwilling to join the family team to hunt monsters.
There are also many family monks who are addicted to women and are dedicated to creating humans. Although the number of clan members has expanded greatly, the overall combat effectiveness of the family has not been correspondingly improved.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this situation is unacceptable.
When Liu Changxu saw that everyone was silent, he said:
"Our family team did not have a resounding name before, which is not good. I suggest that from now on, the family monk team will be called Taoyuan Guards, and the mortal clan army will be called Taoyuan Army."
