126 Your head is the best sacrifice
Zhao zhengzha, who was in anling city, smashed his teacup on the ground after hearing about the Sishui River.
He received the latest news from the Sishui River.
After mu Yangcheng and the Lu clan exterminated the MA clan, they announced the MA clan’s ‘crimes’.
The first one claimed that MA was immoral. He extorted taxes in Sishui and made the people live in misery. Many Orthodox cultivators in Sishui were angry but dared not speak up. This time, mu Yangcheng represented the cultivation circle in Sishui and cooperated with the Lu family to attack MA. He was doing this on behalf of heaven.
Secondly, it was said that Ma family forgot their ancestors and the branch family destroyed the main family. The Lu family was taking revenge for their strong ally from 35 years ago, the real Ma family.
Third, they said that MA was immoral and robbed the Lu family’s transport team for revenge.
The three crimes were said fairly and fairly, and the key points were all on point.
The first condition was targeted at rogue cultivators. That Ma family’s reputation was indeed very bad. In the past, when they had gotten the foundation building pills for MA luoxin and MA luoming, they had been extremely tyrannical in the Sishui River. They wouldn’t be able to make any profit from the mortals, but the itinerant cultivators in the Sishui River would suffer.
The second condition was targeted at the major families. No one would be happy to hear about the destruction of the main family. If they wanted to make a comeback, then so be it. But what was the meaning of killing all the members of the Zong family who had the same surname and clan?
The third condition was a simple conflict of interest, and a legitimate reason for revenge.
It was also because of this that the Lu family attacked Madam MA with the intention of having a good reason.
After that, mu Yangcheng really found the bloodline of the MA family’s former main family, which was the mother and daughter. They were very lucky. That girl had spiritual roots. Although it was only five spiritual roots, it didn’t matter. She was originally used as a banner.
Mu Yangcheng directly took her in as his personal disciple and declared that he would nurture Yunyun well. He even got one of his sons to marry her.
After this series of actions, the Zhao family was really in a passive position.
“The Lu clan!” Zhao zhengzha was gritting his teeth.
Ma family’s death was not any less than another tight slap on the Zhao family’s face and it was not lighter than the last time.
Zhao Pingliang’s death and the Zhao clan’s inability to take revenge immediately had already dealt a heavy blow to the Zhao clan’s reputation.
Killing members of the Zhao family without having to pay a price?
This kind of signal was hard to tolerate for any force.
Fortunately, they still made some responses after the incident. Pingyao County had been sealed off, and the Lu clan’s days were not comfortable.
This time, in order to break the seal, the Lu family took down the Sishui River and even destroyed the MA family.
To the Zhao clan, if they didn’t give an immediate response to the fact that their vassals and allies had been attacked and even exterminated, it would directly affect their Foundation in the anling Prefecture.
Which of the many forces that were on good terms with the Zhao family wasn’t afraid of the Zhao family’s power?
The MA family had always been loyal to the Zhao family. The profits of the four fortune line had been handed over to the Zhao family. This time, the Zhao family called for their allies to attack the Lu family. The MA family was also very supportive and had put it into action.
It was also because they were very concerned about this and acted as the vanguard of the Zhao clan to attack the Lu clan that they were annihilated.
he worked for Zhao family and was killed because of it. If Zhao family couldn’t solve this problem and couldn’t take revenge for Ma family, then it would be weird if the other allies didn’t feel cold.
Although no one said anything, it was obvious that the Allies of the Zhao family were all looking at them and waiting for their response.
He wanted to lead the Zhao family cultivators to attack, but Qiu wanyong was watching him closely.
He knew what this meant-the influence of the Zhao family in the sect had not solved the problem.
He had already heard from his clansmen in the sect that they were currently using the fact that Lu mingchao had killed too many people as an excuse to attack her. Their initial goal was to get the sect to take action and punish the Lu family. However, the sect had never allowed it. They had changed their target. At the very least, they had to lift the ban on the sect.
With a righteous air, a Clansman walked in.
“Lord chief.” “Someone from the sect is here,” the man replied respectfully.
“Who is it?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtit’s fifth uncle. He said sixteenth uncle, seventeenth uncle, and sixth brother have all returned.
Zhao zhengzha’s anger turned into joy. He suddenly stood up and said, ” “Lead the way! The day has finally come!”
The four people he had just mentioned were the four foundation building cultivators that the Zhao clan had nurtured in the sect. They had come together from their sects, so it was naturally impossible for them to just pass on their thoughts and discuss a matter.
Their arrival was equivalent to sending out a direct signal: In the sect, the cultivators of the Zhao clan had finally established a connection.
The time for revenge had come.
Zhao zhengzha quietly walked through the city without alerting anyone and arrived at a courtyard in the city.
After entering, he quickly saw the four foundation building cultivators from the sect.
After some small talk, Zhao zhengzha quickly brought the topic back to business and asked about the Lu family.
“The ban has been lifted?”
“Not yet,”
“Then what’s wrong with you guys, Yingluo?”
Before he could finish, he was interrupted, ” “Let’s not talk about it first. Uncle will go into the house to meet someone first.”
Zhao zhengzha’s heart skipped a beat. He could guess who was in the room.
......
The Zhao clan once again gathered a hundred cultivators and left anling city.
In the city, Qiu wanyong, who had received the news, said to a woman beside him helplessly, ” “Junior Sister Li, I’m afraid we won’t be able to stop Zhao zhengzha this time.”
“I’ll go with you.” This woman was Li Yanling. This proud disciple of patriarch hai had come to anling city in person.
“Is your status suitable?”
“One last time.”
“Alright,” he said.
...
When the two initial enlightenment cultivators acted, they were naturally much faster than the hundreds of cultivators from the Zhao clan. When he found the cultivators of the Zhao family, they were still boarding a small flying boat.
It was obvious that they had been discovered as they approached. Zhao zhengzha had the cultivators from his clan continue boarding the ship while he went over to welcome them.
“The sect’s ban hasn’t been lifted yet. What are you doing?” Qiu wanyong asked.
Zhao zhengzha didn’t reply immediately. He looked at Qiu wanyong and then at the woman behind him.
he didn’t have much of a relationship with Li Yanling, but he had at least heard of her.
Li Yanling and her younger brother Zhao Zhengdong were the representatives of the Zhao clan and the hai clan. They were both in the ninth level of the initial enlightenment stage and had the potential to reach the Golden core stage.
Even such a person had come here to be stunned.
“Prohibition? “Hehe, hehe,” Zhao zhengxuan sneered.
“Do you dare to ignore the sect’s prohibition?” Qiu wanyong frowned and asked.
However, Li Yanling, who was standing beside him, could tell that something was amiss from Zhao zhengzha’s attitude.
A voice came from the swift Boat, but it was as if it was right beside his ear.”Prohibition? Is there a ban on me in the sect?”
...
The voice sounded familiar.
Qiu wanyong immediately felt a chill in his heart. He quickly bowed his head and said, ” “I don’t dare!”
“Go down, seeing you hai Sande’s disciples and Grand-disciples is already enough to make one sick.”
Qiu wanyong turned his head and glanced at Li Yanling.
“With old ancestor Zhao here, we have nothing to say,” Li Yanling cupped her hands and said.
Without hesitation, she rode a cloud and left. Qiu wanyong did not dare to stay any longer and followed closely behind.
After they walked a little further, Qiu wanyong asked, ” “old ancestor Zhao is personally taking action?!
He was still in shock.
“Yes.” Li Yanling didn’t seem to be too surprised.
“What do we do next?” Qiu wanyong couldn’t help but ask.
“Let’s go to Pingyao.”
“What? Don’t tell me you’re not on good terms with Yingluo?”
what are you thinking? we’ll just go and take a look. We won’t do anything.
Qiu wanyong hesitated and asked, ” “Is this the idea of patriarch Wufu?”
The patriarch he was talking about was definitely not Zhao Zidan.
Li Yanling did not answer this question.
......
Qingfeng sect, xuanqing peak.
Hai Sande, the Grand Elder of the Qingfeng sect, and Daoist Kong Tong, the sect leader, had been cultivating on the xuanqing peak all year round. In the past, Zhao Zidan had been here as well. However, a few years ago, he had moved out of this place for unknown reasons.
Hai Sande was sitting cross-legged in the West Hall of the xuanqing peak. Suddenly, a message-sending golden sword flew over to him. He took it into his hand and deciphered the message in it with his divine sense in an instant.
“Hehe, in the end, senior brother Qianqian couldn’t bear it anymore. Qianqian was afraid that I would stop you, so when you left the mountain, you left quietly? Whatever, the Lu clan won’t be able to escape this. Brother Lu, I’d like to see if you’re really dead.”
......
[ Lu mingshen died in battle. ]
Lu Qing, who was cultivating in the chamber, suddenly received a system message.
He instantly became alert.
He still remembered Lu mingshen. He was the person in charge of the clan’s sentry post in the East of Pingyao County. According to the arrangement, he should be leading five hired itinerant cultivators to patrol the northeast of Pingyao, the border with Luyi County.
He was dead, and this was a huge signal.
He immediately left his body and flew East at full speed.
Not long after he flew out, he saw a medium-sized airboat. The big flag with the word “Zhao” on it was fluttering in the wind.
Looking at the direction, they should be heading towards Pingyao. Moreover, they were moving very quickly. They would probably arrive in about four to four hours.
Lu Qing first sent a voice transmission to Lu chaoxi to inform him of this matter. At the same time, he entered the flying boat.
He was good at gathering information.
The flying boat was filled with the elite cultivators of the direct line of the Zhao family.
Lu Qing also saw a few foundation building cultivators. Then, he saw Zhao zhengzha.
“Oh, they’ve turned out in full force.”
Just as this thought came to his mind, he saw a familiar and annoying face.
Zhao Zidan.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe person sitting in the best room in the swift Boat was dressed in a black and green Daoist robe. He held a mid-grade spirit stone in his hand and was cultivating with his eyes closed. He was the person Lu Qing hated the most in the Feiyun state when he was still alive.
There was no movement from Zhao Zidan, not knowing that he was being watched by his old rival.
However, this person’s appearance was very different from what Lu Qing remembered.
He had aged too much.
In the past, Zhao Zidan’s original image was that of a dignified, unsmiling middle-aged man. He always liked to keep a pinch of black goatee, his hair was neatly combed and clean, and he wore a crown. It was as if he had never smiled.
The person in front of him had wrinkles all over his face. Age spots had already appeared on his exposed hands and face. Although he was cultivating, he felt a heavy sense of lethargy.
It was not a lie that his lifespan was approaching its end.
Zhao Zidan should already be over five hundred and ten years old this year.
Normally, golden core cultivators could live up to four hundred and sixty years.
Since a few decades ago, there were all sorts of rumors in the Feiyun state, saying that old ancestor Zhao’s lifespan was about to end. However, many people who said this had already died of old age, while Zhao Zidan was still alive.
“You really can survive, you really can continue.” Lu Qing cursed in his heart.
Zhao Zidan was originally a wood element cultivator. Among his main cultivation techniques, there were contents that leaned towards the Dao of health maintenance. As such, his lifespan was relatively longer. Moreover, as a golden core cultivator and the Grand Elder of a large sect like the Qingfeng sect, he had a lot of power. It wouldn’t be too difficult for him to find some natural treasures that could increase his lifespan.
It was also because of this that he had lived for nearly sixty years.
However, time was always merciless. If one had not truly attained the great Dao and lived as long as the heavens and earth, then one would never be able to overcome this final moment.
He was still going to die.
From Lu Qing’s point of view, even if this old fellow did not do anything and did nothing, he would only be able to live for another half a year.
The true Yuan in his body was still surging, but his life force was like a candle in the wind, wavering.
you’re about to die of old age. Instead of settling your funeral Affairs at home, you’re out here stirring up trouble. It’s really your style. Lu Qing laughed in his heart.
When he saw the most important person, Lu Qing did not continue to stay in the swift Boat. He quickly flew back.
At the same time, he also passed this news to Lu Chaohe, requesting him to remove all the members of the Lu clan from Pingyao County.
At that moment, the Lu clan arranged for 15 cultivators from the direct line of descent in Pingyao, including Chao He and xueting. The original intention was to avoid accidents and to be on the defensive.
But now, it was meaningless. historical
Even Zhao Zidan had personally made a move. Even if Lu chaoxi was in Pingyao, he would only be courting death.
It would be too late for Lu Qing to fly back to his physical body and activate [ revival ] to help Pingyao.
Pingyao would definitely not be able to hold on.
He told Chaohe and xueting to return to Yuyan mountain at full speed. There were still 13 cultivators from the Zhao family. It was estimated that they would not be able to make it back to Yuyan mountain before the Zhao family’s flying boat arrived. He could only ask them to leave the county city as soon as possible and hide outside to save their lives.
If it really couldn’t be preserved, there was no other way.
As for the other unaffiliated cultivators, the Zhao clan would not make things difficult for them immediately without the presence of the Lu clan’s cultivators. Their first target would definitely be Yuyan mountain.
When Lu Qing rushed back to Yuyan mountain, he saw that the protective formation of Yuyan mountain had already been set up. Lu chaoxi and the five foundation building cultivators of the clan were personally presiding over the formation. More than 40 cultivators of the Lu family on the mountain were all waiting in formation.
They all knew that a great calamity was coming, so no one held any hopes of getting lucky.
Lu Qing was not in a hurry to return to his physical body. His consciousness floated outside Yuyan mountain’s great mountain-guarding formation and looked into the distance.
A system message came in.
[the clan’s territory, Pingyao County, has fallen.]
It was within his expectations.
Zhao Zidan, come over. Your head is the best sacrifice to re-establish the Lu clan’s reputation.
