Two days passed after that stroll, Lan did not know the card given by him had caused such change in that shopkeeper's life. But Lan did notice many people returning during these two days. After watching few of them from front gate camera he confirmed that those are the clansmen staying away and just returned for the gathering he announced.

Now so many people in the family compound waiting for just a glance of great ancestor; Lan felt proud. He also saw some speaking with normal patrolling guards to find out some inside secrets of pleasing Ancestor. Those guards were one who often patrols around his Gray Courtyard. Some guests were occasionally passing by his residence to just catch glimpse of him.

After watching the entire hubbub Lan decided to hide for few more days, after all things gotten through hard way are more appreciated. So that resulted in these two days house arrest. Now the mysterious atmosphere around Great Ancestor was thick.

Even the Caretaker Rin did not forget to hide in her room for last two days acting more mysterious than him. But Lan was sure she must be busy on her phone.

Just when he was thinking about best entrance scenario for family gathering he heard loud noises from front gate camera. He saw few genuine old guys shouting his name. Family head Situ Xi and sidekick Situ Pao were arguing with visitors about something.

This was the moment Lan was waiting for to make entrance. But cautious Lan quickly extended his spiritual sense and found out that the guys at front gate were weaker than him by one or two ranks. He could not confirm their actual cultivation but he can guess if they are stronger or weaker.

From what he knew this world has nine cultivation realms- Martial Apprentice, Warrior, Commander, General, King, Emperor, Supreme, Demigod, God respectively. Each realm has nine levels.

The ones at front gate were somewhere around general level according to his spiritual sensing. He did not find any skill for sensing cultivation level of opponent in system store and accurately sensing takes lot of practice which Lan loathes, so the current situation.

Now that he confirmed that the hooligans at front gate were below his level which was half step demi-god i.e. between Martial Supreme Level 9 and Martial Demigod 1, he decided to take this chance to present himself to these nubs.

Lan came out of his Bamboo House and started walking towards front gate unhurriedly with hands behind his back. Just then Caretaker Rin ran out of her room and joined Ancestor while looking proud.

When ancestor started quarantine she did not panic. She observed the situation and without Ancestor she had to study the phone. But she did not forget her main job. She was smart; she kept her window crack open and always kept watch on Ancestor's door. As result she did not miss his exit. Now that she had successfully done that; she could not be stop being proud of her intellect.

Newly arrived family members were awed looking at majestic figure of the Ancestor. They felt aura emitted by that lean figure was so awe inspiring that they had to kneel down. The gray robe fluttering without wind accompanied by white ponytail waving in rhythm added layer of mystery around him. The petite butterfly like spirited young lady alongside calm ocean like old man, such contrast made the scene grandiose.

These new people were finally happy to see rumored major backing after suffering for long time that they were just making mountain out of a molehill. They started slowly following their ancestor.

When Lan reached at the front entrance he saw Situ Xi - family head shouting at old guys,

"Old Yaozu don't spout nonsense, Great Ancestor is not something likes of you can meet whenever you want. You had to have great fortune for that to happen. Now get lost before you lose your life."

Situ XI was fuming; he clearly knew these old bastards were so shameless that they thought the returning of Great Ancestor is his trick to threaten them. 'They spied for two days but did not see Great Ancestor so now these old things want to make me lose face. If these was before I would have taken a step back but now that ancestor was in house I fear nothing.' with that he thought of few more bad words to add for ones who barged in,

"Yaozu, I tolerated your nonsense before but don't go overboard or I will make your family ladies slave away for us for eternity after beating shit out of you." Clearly in his reverie he did not notice Ancestor was coming over.

Lan heard this sentence when he arrived, 'This old man had very dirty mind' is all he can think. But he did not speak. He just stood there and started watching the old men one by one with droopy eyes.
