Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
“What a pity…”
Chen Xianhe shook his head.
“What’s a pity?”
Chen Daoxuan looked at Chen Xianhe in confusion.
Hearing this.
Chen Xianhe sighed.” I feel sorry for Brother Zhou. 1 don’t think the Zhou family did this. However, in order to calm the matter down and buy time for themselves to investigate, they had no choice but to sacrifice Brother Zhou.”
Chen Daoxuan frowned. Can’t the Zhou family report it to the Qian Yuan Sword Sect?”
Chen Xianhe shook his head and said nothing.
At the same time.
Yang Gongwan, who was standing beside Yang Linyuan, asked the same question as Chen Daoxuan.
Grandfather, why didn’t the Zhou Family and the Wu Family report this to the Qian Yuan Sword Sect? ”
Yang Gongwan looked at Yang Linyuan in confusion.
However, when Yang Linyuan heard the words ” Qian Yuan Sword Sect,” his expression froze.
After a long time.
“It’s not that I can’t, but I’m unwilling!” he sighed.
“Not willing?”
“That’s right,”
Yang Linyuan nodded.” Before the Rebellion of God Extinction, the Zhou family was a Golden Core family.
However, with the rise of Zhou Mubai, the Zhou family had gained the strength and prestige that they had back when they were at their peak.
In addition…Their Zhou family wants to become the number one family in the
Azure Continent!”
“The number one family in Azure Continent?”
Yang Gongwan asked in surprise,” What right does the Zhou family have to…
ii
Before she could finish her sentence, she thought of Zhou Mubai and Ancestor Zhou, who was one step away from becoming a Golden Core Cultivator.
Silence.
At this moment, Yang Gongwan vaguely understood why the Zhou Clan had done this.
The life of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator who had neglected his duty would calm the anger of the various families in Guang ‘an Prefecture in exchange for the time the Zhou family had to investigate this matter.
To the Zhou Clan, it was worth it!
Otherwise, once this matter was exposed to the Qianyuan Sword Sect, not only would the Zhou family lose face in front of the Guang ‘an Prefecture, but they would also leave an incompetent image in the entire Cangzhou Prefecture.
At that time.
Even if the Zhou family produced another Golden Core cultivator, in the eyes of outsiders, they would be no different from the current Ye family.
How could a family that couldn’t even handle the internal affairs of Guang ‘an Prefecture become the number one family in Cang Prefecture?
The Zhou family needed time to regain their lost face.
This point.
Chen Xianhe understood, and so did Yang Linyuan.
Even Zhou Mucheng had been prepared for this before he came.
Then why didn’t the Wu Family report it to the Qian Yuan Sword Sect? ”
Yang Gongwan looked at her grandfather again.
” Compared to the Zhou Family, the Wu Family has lost more than a hundred Foundation Building Cultivators,” Yang Linyuan said faintly.” They have completely lost them. Compared to revenge, they need to think more about the present and the future.”
“For the present and the future?”
Yang Gongwan was even more confused.
“Before the Rebellion of God Extinction, the Wu clan was like my Yang clan, a great clan with nearly ten Zifu Disciples.
All these years, during the Rebellion of God Jue and the Battle of Zhennan Pass, the Wu family had gradually declined until now.
They had not only lost their strength, but also the hearts of their people. The loss of more than 100 Foundation Establishment cultivators was the last straw that broke the hearts of the Wu family.
Compared to investigating the truth, the first thing Wu Guangyi needs to do is to gather the hearts of the people.”
Yang Linyuan’s gaze was deep.” Otherwise, if the hearts of the people are scattered, the family will be finished.”
Gather the hearts of the clansmen.
Yang Gongwan had a feeling about this.
Because the Yang family was like the Wu family, declining step by step.
Along with the decline of the family’s strength, the hearts of the people gradually dissipated.
In this situation, it was only when Yang Linyuan broke through to the Purple Prefecture and established the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance that the Yang family members regained their confidence.
Sometimes, confidence was not worth mentioning, but sometimes, confidence was too important.
Yang Linyuan didn’t know that Yang Gongwan had thought of so many things in such a short time. He continued,”As for the future…
Wu Guangyi knew that what he wanted was to unite the hearts of his people, not to completely offend the Zhou Clan. After all, the Wu family still had tens of thousands of cultivators, and they would have to continue the family line in Guang ‘an Prefecture in the future.
If he reported it to the Qianyuan Sword Sect, he would be slapping the Zhou Family in front of the Guang ‘an Prefecture and even the entire Cangzhou Prefecture.
Regardless of the outcome of the matter, the Zhou and Wu families would have an irreconcilable relationship in the future.
Does the Wu family dare to fight the Zhou family to the death?”
Hearing this.
Yang Gongwan suddenly understood.
For a cultivation force, strength was the foundation, but reputation and face were equally important.
It was even something that was second only to strength.
The consequences of losing his reputation.
Just look at the outcome of the Ye family in Cang Prefecture.
Not to mention in the Infinite Star Sea, even in Cangzhou, or even in Guang ‘an Prefecture, how many of them were really working for the Ye Family?
When the Ye Family cultivators walked outside, they were all ridiculed and ridiculed.
Although the Azure Continent’s Ye family was known as the number one family in Azure Continent, it was only barely in terms of strength. However, in terms of reputation, no family would acknowledge them.
Now, both the Zhou and Wu families wanted this face, and Zhou Mucheng, who had failed in his duty, was a sacrificial victim.
As everyone spoke.
A new change occurred on the field.
Just as Zhou Mucheng was about to be killed, Zhou Mucheng’s son, Zhou Siliang, rushed forward without a care.
“Old thief of the Wu family, how dare you touch my father!”
“Liang ‘er! No!”
Zhou Mucheng saw Zhou Siliang’s actions and his face turned red. He was shocked and furious.
Zhou Siliang didn’t have the time to care about his injured father’s advice. His eyes turned red as he dashed toward Wu Guangyi.
After all, not everyone was like Chen Daoxuan and Zhou Mubai, who could jump realms to fight. Zhou Siliang was just a Foundation Establishment cultivator, how could he be a match for Wu Guangyi, a perfected Foundation Establishment cultivator?
“Get lost!”
A sword light flashed.
Wu Guangyi’s flying sword appeared in front of Zhou Siliang.
“Sigh!”
Seeing this scene.
Chen Daoxuan sighed.
Originally, this matter was the Zhou family’s choice and Zhou Mucheng’s choice. Chen Daoxuan had no right or intention to interfere.
But at this moment.
Zhou Siliang was about to die in front of him.
Chen Daoxuan had to ask.
In the next moment.
A streak of starlight struck Wu Guangyi’s flying sword and sent it flying.
Immediately after.
Chen Daoxuan flew out and stood in front of Zhou Siliang.
“Fellow Daoist Wu, isn’t it a little too vicious to kill him like this?” he cupped his hands and said.
“Who are you? How dare you interfere in my Wu family’s matters!”
Wu Guangyi’s face darkened.
At this moment.
His heart was already in turmoil.
“Swordsman! It’s a Swordsman!”
Everyone present was not ignorant.
Someone immediately recognized Chen Daoxuan’s methods.
“Boom!”
This sentence immediately caused an uproar.
Swordsman!
Other than Zhou Mubai, the Guang ‘an Prefecture actually produced a second sword xiu.
” Chen Daoxuan of the Chen family of Shuanghu Island!”
Chen Daoxuan cupped his hands and said indifferently,” 1 have no intention of interfering in the Wu family’s matters, but he…” You can’t move!”
Chen Daoxuan pointed at Zhou Siliang.
For some reason.
After hearing that Chen Daoxuan didn’t intend to interfere in the Wu family’s affairs, Wu Guangyi actually heaved a sigh of relief.
After all.
The reputation of sword xiu was too great in the Infinite Star Sea and even in the Celestial Cloud Continent.
If Chen Daoxuan insisted on interfering today.
The Wu family really couldn’t stop..
