Chapter 343 Wilbur slowly walked into the room. He lit a cigarette and said, "How come I haven't heard of Jarlinville's Anne clan?" Skyler was surprised, ""No way.
Jarlinville's Anne clan of Kardon Province is an ancient family, and everyone in their family are cultivators. The head of the clan, Sam Anne, is a powerful intermediate Ambience level cultivator. I heard they have an elder in retreat to focus on cultivation. They basically never involve themselves in worldly matters, but they are powerful." Wilbur frowned and said, "He's only an intermediate Ambience level cultivator. Also, are the historical
remains in the territory of the Anne clan?" It's at the mountain behind where the Anne clan lives, but it's not their property," replied Skyler.
Wilbur scoffed and said, "We'll deal with it if he gets involved. Stop nagging." Wilbur was very interested in discovering the historical remains. It would be great if he discovered a good sacrifice. There was no way he could let this opportunity go.

They went out and Wilbur let Skyler drive. He sat in the passenger seat to rest his eyes.
Jarlinville was on the east end of
Kardon Province. They were eight hundred miles apart, so they required some time to get there. SE Skyler drove on the highway, taking them to Jarlinville.
Meanwhile, at Anne Village at the foot of Wavepeak Mountain in Jarlinville, the entire village was made up of members from the Anne clan. They were living a peaceful and contented life at the secluded Wavepeak Mountain.
It was that afternoon that the head of the clan, Sam Anne, led hundreds of villagers to the entrance of the family shrine.
The shrine was old and magnificent. It looked ancient.
Sam led his people to carry out the weekly ritual of paying respects to their ancestors.
Everyone prayed under the leadership of Sam. They first knelt and bowed according to their ritual at the entrance of the shrine. Then, Sam and the clan elders entered the shrine while everyone else waited outside.
An ancient painting was hung in the middle of the shrine. The painting was of a young man wearing green clothes, white socks, and a sword. The young man was standing at the edge of a raging sea like he was about to set sail.

Sam and the elders prayed at the ancient painting with great respect.
Then, they respectfully prayed to their ancestors. Sam led the elders and knelt in front of the painting. = Sam prayed with sincerity, "Ancestors and past leaders, I am Sam Anne, the thirty-second head of the Anne clan. I hereby lead the Anne clan to pay our respects." Then, they knelt and bowed again. The people outside the shrine also followed suit.
After the ritual, Sam said, "May our ancestors bless us, so that the Anne clan's legacy will continue." Sam and the elders walked out of the shrine after the ritual. They started to warn their people to never forget the glory of their ancestors and advised them to cultivate earnestly.
When Sam was preaching to his people, a sudden burst of red light erupted from the distant mountains behind and shot to the sky. It instantly captured their attention.
He was startled when he saw that. A moment later, he said with excitement, "That's our elder. The Anne clan is about to have a Saint." "It's a blessing from our ancestors," said an equally excited elder.
Sam said with excitement, "Quick, aside from the women and children, everyone should follow me to the mountains. We have to greet our elder and congratulate him on becoming a Saint." "We have to greet our elder and congratulate him on becoming a Saint!"
The members of the Anne clan were unusually excited. They cheered and followed Sam to the mountairns.in a hurry.
