Chapter 589: Chapter 384 Eastern Region Six Territories_1
The cultivators markets in the Eastern Wilderness generally adopt a form of semi-autonomous governance.
Since the Divine Wood Sect was a breakaway from the Five Elements Sect, all the forces under its jurisdiction in the four countries originally belonged to the Five Elements Sect. However, in order to gain support of the local cultivation families in the four countries, the Divine Wood Sect yielded the management rights of these markets to cultivation families from the start of their separation.
Thus, in the first few decades after the separation, these cultivation families in the four countries, even those who had not contributed to the Divine Wood Sect, at least remained silent.
Those who were restless and harbored ulterior motives were either cleansed or fled.
For instance, the Silver Sky Sect, where Yu Lian used to be, is an example of the expelled ones.
Once the Divine Wood Sect’s Golden Cliff had reconciled with the Five Elements Sect, the cultivation families that had contributed before naturally obtained the management rights of these markets.
Among them, Yuhu Market came under the jurisdiction of the Fu family.
The news that Chen Mobai had arrived at the market quickly reached the Fu family.
An hour later, Fu Xiuzuo, the head of the Fu family, arrived in person.
“Greetings, Town Guard.”
Fu Xiuzuo, a cultured and refined middle-aged man with a neat and dense black beard, appeared quite rustic.
“Chairman Fu, you’re too polite. We should simply call each other as fellow brothers.”
Chen Mobai knew that this man was the nephew of Elder Fu and was formerly a disciple of the Divine Wood Sect.
However, the Fu family had suffered heavy losses in the fight with the Five Elements Sect, all three Foundation Establishment cultivators died in battle, so Elder Fu had Fu Xiuzuo leave the sect and return to the family to recover.
