Chapter 185: Golden Core Ceremony (Part 2)

One by one, Wu Family members were called before Patriarch Wu.

These people included the Wu Family's main line, side branches, and even non-family clan members, representing various classes within the Wu Family.

They had already received notice and thought that the Patriarch was going to reward them. Each of them swelled with pride and gathered here early.

As a result, they heard Patriarch Wu say with bitter pain:

"To my knowledge, during this month when I closed myself off to solidify my cultivation, some Wu Family members have been wantonly acting under my name, committing all sorts of evil deeds, causing shame to the Wu Family's reputation.

As everyone knows, the Wu Family is an alchemy family. It is only with the help of you fellow cultivators that we have achieved our current status and fame.

Many fellow cultivators have been tolerant of these shameful juniors out of respect for me, only increasingly inflating their arrogance.
