The Immortal Venerable Returns: Cleaning House for His Father from the Start

After failing his tribulation, Gu Xingzhou, the Immortal Lord of Qingxuan, returned to Earth. He had painstakingly cultivated for 320 years in the Tai Xuan Realm, while only three years had passed in the mortal world. He thought he could finally reunite with his family, but the moment he stepped into Zhengshan Martial Arts School, he saw his younger brother with a broken arm, his father afflicted by Meridian Severing Powder, and his mother forced to watch the Lei family take down the school's signboard! So what if he had lost all his cultivation? The 320 years of knowledge he had amassed in alchemy, medicine, sword techniques, and combat remained in his mind. On the very day he returned, he swept aside the disciples who came to challenge the school and defeated an expert of the Hidden Force stage with a single palm strike. Seven days later, he defeated a Strength Transformation expert in a martial arts wager in Linjiang, crippled Lei Chongyue's martial arts foundation, and won back the Gu family's quota and medicinal herb supply routes! Starting with a Qi-Gathering Jade, Gu Xingzhou once again drew qi into his body, refined pills to trade for spiritual medicines, recognized true treasures in antique markets, and used sword energy to cut down evil cultivators, crushing the arrogance of wealthy clans and hidden sects along the way. Some laughed at him for having no connections, so he subdued the whole arena with one palm. Some coveted his pill recipes, so one batch of his spiritual pills shook Jiangnan. Some called upon the ancient ancestor of their cultivation sect, but he merely lifted his eyes and said, "Do you even deserve to discuss the Dao before this honored one?" The former Immortal Lord had returned. It was time for someone else to make the rules in this mortal world!
