My Descendants Are My Power

Chapter 20: Chapter 20: The family head has fled



Ethan had seen what this sword could do.

With a whoosh, it shattered his cards...

The other Blackwoods also had psychic gear, but unlike Nathan and Lucas, who loved the thrill of battle, the others had different tasks to attend to.

Time flew by.

The Blackwoods didn't recklessly head to Forest Town looking for trouble. Although Forest Town occasionally sent folks to harass them, they never got close to the Blackwood base without getting decapitated.

"Blackwood Year 19."

"Those who invaded the Blackwood base that year, half survived, gifted by Blackwood, they cultivated fields outside Blackwood, gradually forming a village..."

Nathan had asked him about this.

It was also Ethan's idea to spare these people. Killing is always the last resort.

Blackwood had enough psychic beasts that could summon water with their talents to irrigate the fields, and their dung was the best fertilizer!

In this year of disaster, the refugees sheltered by Blackwood could farm, raise chickens and ducks, and after paying taxes, they could also save the Blackwood people some farming time. Soon, the food they produced could sustain the family's psychic beasts!

Plus...

These refugees were also a solid workforce.

By now, outside the Blackwood base, large areas of fertile land had been cultivated. Between the fields, livestock could be seen running joyfully, and the once emaciated refugees were gradually putting on weight, smiles on everyone's faces.

"Not only that".

After scoring a workforce of nearly 500, Blackwood's base got a major facelift.

Their old stone-built yard has been swapped out for buildings with blue bricks and white tiles, sprawling over a massive area and looking pretty majestic. You might catch a glimpse of some psychic beasts hopping on the walls or soaring above.

Even so, villagers kept grinding stones, shaping them up, and laying them down outside Blackwood!

The once lonely Blackwood.

Now, it's kinda shaping up like a big family dynasty, with the area around Blackwood buzzing with activity.

"Forebearer, check this out, the big tree I planted in the psychic beast garden is blooming!"

While admiring the evolving Blackwood, a joyful voice from the ancestral hall snapped Ethan out of his thoughts.

There was Amelia, bouncing into the ancestral hall.

"Beast Blood Fruit Tree? Is it finally showing some action?!!"

Ethan was thrilled.

He quickly clicked on Amelia's avatar, and the Forebearer's view followed her perspective to the psychic medicine garden!

Sure enough.

The towering Beast Blood Fruit Tree was sprouting bright red flowers!

"Sweet!"

After bringing back the Beast Blood Fruit Tree, there had been no movement, and Ethan was worried it might have been a bust, but now he finally saw hope!

[Beast Blood Fruit Tree]

[Status: After being watered with the blood of hundreds of human corpses and nourished with Psychic blood, it has absorbed enough nutrients, and the fruits this year will be even more vibrant!]

"??????"

After clicking on the Beast Blood Fruit Tree and seeing the status, Ethan was stunned, then looked under the big tree at Amelia, who seemed innocent and was gently touching the fruits with a tender face, "Girl, your killing intent is way too strong, kinda freaky."

Since that invasion incident, he hadn't paid much attention to how the Blackwood folks handled corpses.

Now he got it!

Hundreds of bodies, all bled by this young lady to nourish the Beast Blood Fruit Tree!

Ethan couldn't even think about doing such a thing.

If he dared to do this in reality, he'd be globally condemned the next day...

"Hmm... but the results are good."

Ethan immediately dropped a skill, giving Amelia a shot of 'Forebearer's Love'.

"Thanks for the Forebearer's reward!"

Feeling the warmth on her body, Amelia instantly knew that the mysterious Forebearer was watching over her, and a broad smile appeared on her face, "Amelia will definitely grow the Beast Blood Fruit Tree bigger... no, Amelia will grow many, many Beast Blood Fruit Trees!"

"Just don't do anything too heartless for the sake of growing trees... otherwise, us Blackwoods with our little arms and legs, being seen as demon-possessed psychics, really won't cover it."

Ethan wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Checking the game world's time, the next decade was almost upon them, he raised an eyebrow, "Granny Quinn hasn't come knocking yet? Looks like I need to check if my stuff is ready."

He had already prepared for this Divine Gift!

Ethan was just getting up when his antique phone rang.

Call—Kieran Law Firm.

"My family's business, Uncle Kieran got it done so fast?" Ethan's eyes lit up, only with the family continuously giving him pocket money could he comfortably play games!

He answered the call.

Just about to speak, Ethan was completely stunned.

"Ethan, I'm afraid I really can't help this time, your new family head, flew off in a spaceship overnight with all of Blackwood..."

Ethan was dumbfounded.

It took him a long while to mutter as if in a dream.

"Dang, I haven't even boarded the spaceship yet!"
