Chapter 564 – Strange Hurricane Family

Inside the Buddha Empire’s sea region, the travel with the Hurricane Family people came smoothly as well . In the Buddha Empire, there was almost no reason to offend the Hurricane Family .

The people of the Hurricane Family were not interested in influence . The people from the Buddha Empire were very friendly with them because they weren’t striving for power nor profit . The Royal Family also liked to intermarry to their family, which made the other nobles treat them very well . One could say that the Hurricane Family was the most accepted people in the entire Buddha Empire .

However, Kristen wasn’t in the mood to think about all of this right now . The group was currently entering the Buddha Empire’s largest river, Iron Warhorse River .

According to legend, the founding Emperor of the Buddha Empire has managed to obtain the approval of a unique Magic Beast, an Iron Warhorse, in this river . With the horse as his mount, he managed to make a lot of achievements and finally established the Buddha Empire . After taking his seat as Emperor, he immediately changed the name of the River into Iron Warhorse River .

The territory of the Hurricane Family was along a branch of this river, inside a mountainous area . The mountain didn’t have any ores, and its land wasn’t fertile . It can be said that this territory was the worst in the Buddha Empire .

However, even after holding this territory for millennia, the Hurricane Family didn’t even attempt to expand it one step, nor did they seek help from others . The Family only relied on their family members to excavate the mountainous area and make terraced fields of which Bamboo Rice, oil trees, and green vegetables were planted . They were living in something like a mundane paradise .

In the eyes of other Nobles, this might be an example of not making progress . However, the Hurricane Family seems to like living like this . They were selling a lot of Bamboo Rice, oil products as well as vegetables, but not Magic Vegetables . This made their yearly profits much lesser than the other nobles, but this could still satisfy the family .

But as many years passed by, the Hurricane Family were still a Great Clan . Other clans rose to the top, others fell into depravity, but the Hurricane Family still stayed the same . They just lived their day-to-day lives peacefully, as they did from the very beginning . This made people quite speechless when discussing them .

However, if you think that the Hurricane family was weak, then you couldn’t be any more wrong . Because of their innate Wind attribute, the Family had a lot of experts within their members .

The other families might have 7th or 8th rank experts as their Foreign elders, eliciting respect and resources in order to make their strength grow . But it was different with the Hurricane Family . One might see a farmer on the fields, tending to his crops, only to know that the person was an 8th rank expert . You might even see someone peacefully chopping wood, but actually had the strength of 7th rank . There were no other family in the Buddha Empire that was just like the Hurricane Family .

The Hurricane Family’s core values is based on being good to others . They had helped a lot of families in the Buddha Empire before, making the entire Buddha Empire nobility grateful to them . One could say that in the Buddha Empire, the Hurricane Family was the most detached family in terms of political agenda .

When the Radiant Church was at its strongest, they wanted to suppress the Hurricane Family because of its non-compliance . But when they came to doing it, they found out that they weren’t able to do anything . The Hurricane Family didn’t have any businesses aside from their rice, oil, and vegetables . And these things were daily supplies, so they really cannot be suppressed . And when the Radiant Church wanted to use other avenues to deal with them, the Nobles of the Buddha Empire disagreed . In the end, the Radiant Church can only take a step back .

Although Zhao Hai had some understanding of the Hurricane Family, in the end, he was not a person of the Buddha Empire . His understanding of the Hurricane Family was only based on some writings on paper . As to the actual prestige of the Hurricane Family, Zhao Hai has close to no clue .

After travelling for three days in Iron Warhorse River, they finally sailed on a branching body of water known as Blooming Flower River and stopped at a place called the Blooming Flower Lake .

On the east of Blooming Flower Lake, a stone pier can be seen . This pier was Hurricane Family’s personal pier . At the same time, this Blooming Flower Lake was also part of the Hurricane Family’s territory .

After the two ships stopped on the pier . Zhao Hai discovered that there were a lot of people present . The one leading them was an old man wearing an azure Robe . This old man’s robes was neither magnificent nor luxurious . The robe looked just like the robes that low-level Mages used to wear . It didn’t have any special qualities in it .

The hair of the old person was white, he had a wrinkled face that made him look like an old Mage that had zero accomplishments in his life . However, Zhao Hai didn’t dare look down on this person . Although the old man looked weak, Zhao Hai’s intuition was telling him that he was an expert .

After lowering the springboard, Zhao Hai, along with Laura and the others, walked down from their ship . Kristen also disembarked from her own ship . Naturally, Kristen had already sent a message towards the old man, informing him about what happened as well as Zhao Hai’s presence .

Kristen went to the old man and gave him a salute . The old man smiled kindly towards her and said, “Good . It’s nice that you’ve come back safely . I told you to not go, but you insisted to . Right, let’s not neglect the guests . ”

Then the old man turned to look at Zhao Hai . Zhao Hai didn’t neglect his manners as he bowed and said, “Buda Clan’s Patriarch, Zhao Hai, has seen the Elder . ”

The old man smiled faintly and returned the bow before saying, “Juno Hurricane has met Patriarch Zhao Hai . ”

Zhao Hai quickly replied and said, “Elder shouldn’t be too polite . You’re old enough to be my grandfather . No need to give me a bow, I don’t deserve it . ”

Old Juno looked at Zhao Hai and smiled faintly, “Patriarch Zhao Hai has rescued my granddaughter . That’s a great service to my Hurricane Family, that’s enough to merit a bow . ”

Zhao Hai smiled, “Elder is too polite . I just did it because of the coincidence, so I helped a little . Not really a big deal . ”

Juno smiled a little, he didn’t want to dwell too much on this topic . So he said, “Since mister has come to my Hurricane Family, then we would of course show you our hospitality . ” Juno changed how he addressed Zhao Hai from Patriarch to mister . It seems like their relationship has gone one step closer .

Zhao Hai also noted the change to how he was addressed . He smiled and said, “I’ll have to trouble the elder . ” Then the group went to leave the pier and approached some carriages . The carriages were very ordinary, something even merchants wouldn’t ride on . But from the looks of the Hurricane Family members, it seems like they were already used to it .

Zhao Hai was now very curious about the people of the Hurricane Family . He wasn’t expecting that there would a millennium-old family like this to exist . It made Zhao Hai think about how great it would be if he were to be born into such a family . However, his fate was on the opposite direction .

After the group rode the carriage, it immediately headed towards the depths of the Hurricane Family’s territory . This showed Zhao Hai that the Hurricane Family’s territory was a mountainous region, no flat lands can be seen . The road that they were going through were all mountain paths paved with stones .

Zhao Hai looked at the lush, Bamboo Rice and oil trees in the mountains . Then he turned to Laura and said, “This place is really good . It’s much better than our Black Wasteland . ”

Laura smiled and said, “Their lifestyle is really astonishing . I didn’t think that there would be a millennium-old clan that is like this . I used to hear how the Hurricane Family lived, but I really didn’t expect it to be like this . ”

After crossing two mountains, their carriage stopped . Zhao Hai didn’t immediately get down from the carriage, he was busy gawking at the scene .

This village wasn’t different than the villages that they had seen in the past two mountains . Stone houses with a stone walled courtyards, of which several fruit trees were grown . Dogs can be seen running around the vegetation and pigs’ squeals can be heard . It’s a typical mountain village that one can see everywhere .

However, this typical mountain village was actually the Patriarch’s residence of one of the most famous Great Families in the continent . This scene made Zhao Hai stare blankly .

At this time, people can be heard walking towards the carriage . This made Zhao Hai recover as he led Laura and the others down . Juno had also reached Zhao Hai’s carriage as he smiled, “Mister Zhao Hai, this is where I live . It’s quite crude, I hope you don’t get offended . ”

Zhao Hai quickly replied, “This is actually a very good place . I like it very much . I’d have to trouble the Elder to take care of me . ” Juno smiled faintly and led Zhao Hai to enter the courtyard . Kristen was also following them from behind, while the others went back to their own households .

Upon entering the courtyard, Zhao Hai can see another old person there as well as two children running around like crazy .

Kristen entered the courtyard and immediately ran towards the old person as she held her up, “Grandma, I’ve missed you . ” The old woman looked at Zhao Hai and then back to Kristen as she said, “Good girl . Right, go invite the guests over inside . ”

Zhao Hai looked at this old woman and immediately knew that she was an expert as well, at least 7th rank . Zhao Hai hadn’t seen an 7th rank Mage like this old woman before . Moreover, she was a millennium-old Patriarch’s wife .

At this time, Zhao Hai also entered the room with Juno . The living room was quite big, when he entered, he can see wooden chairs and tables inside, looking like they were already antiques . The items inside gave off a serene and deep aura .

After the group sat down, Kristen got them something to drink . Then Juno looked at Zhao Hai and smiled, “Is Patriarch Zhao Hai not too familiar with a crude place such as this?”

Zhao Hai shook his head and said, “Not at all, I’m quite used to it . A year ago, I lived in a similar condition . It’s even much worse than here . Hahaha . Even the place that I’m living in right now is not much better than this . ”

Juno smiled and said, “Our Hurricane Family had been living like this for as long as I can remember, so we’re already quite used to it . Right, I heard that Patriarch Zhao Hai’s purpose this time was to contact the dwarves, am I correct?”

Zhao Hai nodded and said, “I did come to do some trades with the Dwarves . But I’m quite unfamiliar with the place as well as the people here . I’ll have to ask the Elder for help . ”

Juno smiled and said, “Patriarch doesn’t need to be polite . You’ve rescued Kristen, such great kindness needed to be repaid . If I can help you even for a little bit, then I would be very happy . ”

Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Elder is really too polite . I feel quite uncomfortable receiving such remarks from a respectable person like you . ”

Juno just smiled and said, “Alright, no need to talk about this . I’ll have to ask Patriarch Zhao Hai to stay here for a few days since I’ll need to arrange this matter . After I take care of it, I will personally accompany you to Dwarf Mountain . I believe that those old Dwarves would still give me some face . ”

Zhao Hai stared blankly before he immediately said, “I’ve dared to cause the Patriarch too much trouble, I’ll have to deeply apologize . ”

The Old man waved his hand and said, “It isn’t a big deal . I happen to have several good friends among the Dwarves . Patriarch Zhao Hai doesn’t need to be too polite . Right, I’ll have to ask Patriarch Zhao Hai to rest in his room first . In a while, I’ll be inviting you over for dinner . ” Zhao Hai complied, and then he led Laura and the others out .

After walking out of the house, they saw that Kristen was already there waiting for them . However, Kristen was very different compared to the first time that they’ve met . In the past, Kristen was wearing a long skirt, with her hair fairly unkempt . But the present Kristen was now wearing ordinary clothes, she also had her hair into a braid, she looked just like an adorable neighbor .

Kristen gave a small bow and said to Zhao Hai, “Patriarch Zhao Hai, please come with me . ” Then she led Zhao Hai towards a nearby building .

After arriving at the building, Kristen turned her head to Zhao Hai and said, “Patriarch, this is the place that Grandfather has arranged for you . It looks quite simple, we hope that Patriarch doesn’t get too offended . ”

Zhao Hai entered the room . It wasn’t that big, the inside was divided into two; the living room and the bedroom . If one carefully looked at it, one could see that the room was spotlessly clean .

Zhao Hai turned his head to Kristen and then said, “Sister Kristen is too polite . This place is very good, it’s very much to my liking . Thank you very much . ”

Kristen smiled and said, “Patriarch is too polite . Then I’ll leave patriarch here so that you can take a rest . If Patriarch needs anything, don’t hesitate to tell me . ”

Zhao Hai nodded, then Kristen turned around and left . Meg and the others also came inside as they evaluated the house .

Laura smiled and turned to Zhao Hai, “Brother Hai, I didn’t think that the Hurricane Family would be living this humbly . It’s really too strange . ”

Zhao Hai smiled and said, “I also didn’t think that the famous Hurricane Family would have this kind of lifestyle, it’s completely out of my expectations . With how strong they are, they still chose to live such lives, they have my utmost admiration . ”

Laura smiled and said, “They really do make people admire them . But I feel like our situation is quite similar to the Hurricane Family . We have the strength to rule a nation, but we chose to live our current lives . Maybe we are pursuing the same life as them . ”
