Chapter 172 Gambling and not daring to gamble (please subscribe)
The voice fell.
The cultivators in Yunhe Mountain were in an uproar. They were all shocked as they looked at the Huang family's foundation-building cultivators who came out to hunt down Master Shu Dan. Many foreign cultivators even showed disdain on their faces.
Including the monks of the Huang family, they were also ashamed of the behavior of the senior officials.
After all, Master Shu Dan’s achievements in the Huang family over the past ten years are well known to everyone.
A few years ago, Master Shu Dan failed to break through the golden elixir, and there were rumors that the senior officials would send Master Shu to the battlefield of good and evil as a scapegoat to replace the family's foundation.
Now, Master Shu Dan is being hunted by the family’s senior officials, which is also a change that confirms the rumors from a few years ago.
Seeing this scene, Huang Changshun felt anxious, and the family was unstable, which would be a disaster for the family.
He immediately used his magic power and shouted: "Master Shu Dan, don't try to confuse the public with your lies. The conspiracy between you and the Tiannv Sect has long been exposed."
“Collude with the devil, everyone on the right path will get it and punish them!”
It’s just that Huang Changshun’s words are not very convincing in the ears of the cultivators in Yunhe Mountain.
In recent years, with the invasion of the devil, the best excuse for righteous monks to frame their opponents is colluding with the devil.
Master Shu Dan has accumulated a lot of reputation over the years, whether in the casual cultivating group or within Yunhe Mountain. It is difficult for the clan leader Huang Changshun to convict him with just one or two words.
Of course, the reason for this is also related to Huang Changshun's decline in prestige over the years.
The Huang family in Heshan declined at the hands of Huang Changshun. After the decline, Huang Changshun gave priority to providing a series of pills such as Foundation Establishment Pill to his direct clan members. This move has long caused dissatisfaction among the common people.
Due to various factors, the Huang family members were furious about Huang Changshun's behavior.
“Colluded with the Heavenly Lady Sect?” When Master Shu Dan heard this, he narrowed his eyes a few times and began to guess who had leaked the news.
In the list of suspicions, Master Shu Dan did not include Wei Tu, because Wei Tu was unlikely to know the relationship between Liu Zuoshi and their Shu Yun Alliance.
The information that Shopkeeper Fan revealed to Wei Tu was that the Shu Yun League, a casual cultivator organization, was targeting the Huang family, and it did not involve the Tiannv Sect.
In addition, there was a gap between Wei Tu and the Huang family. Among the cultivators invited by Shu Yunmeng, he was the one who had the greatest conflict with the Huang family in Heshan.
Leaking the secrets of the Wei pictures will not gain the slightest benefit in this matter.
Of course, if Master Shu Dan knew that Si Qing, a monk from the Celestial Girl Sect, was killed by Wei Tu, his judgment would not be so hasty.
And Wei Tu’s report.
In fact, it is also a bet that Shu Yunmeng's organization is not so strict and will not be able to find out who the traitor is at the first time.
Weitu is confident. As a casual cultivator organization, Shuyun League is not like a family or a sect, so the trust among its internal members is not very high.
The lesser of two evils.
If the Heshan Huang family is not brought to light in advance and involves Shu Yunmeng's energy, he may...become the next target of Liu Zuo of the Heavenly Lady Sect.
…
Master Shu Dan’s mind was running rapidly, and he quickly identified several suspect targets.
He sneered several times, took out a handful of brown medicine powder from his arms, sprinkled it vigorously on Huang Changshun and the other monks behind him, and then quickly withdrew from Yunhe Mountain and fled toward the southwest.
Alchemists are often also masters of poison.
Seeing this handful of medicinal powder, Huang Changshun and others suddenly changed their expressions, and immediately put up a mana shield to resist the erosion of the medicinal powder.
However-
What is surprising is that the powder ignored the mana shield and fell directly on the bodies of the Huang family's foundation-building monks.
In an instant, the faces of Huang Changshun and others turned dark, and by the way, the movement of magic power in the body was much more obscure than before.
"No need to chase." After the Huang family cultivators suppressed the poison, Huang Changshun found that Master Shu Dan had fled for more than ten miles. He waved his hand and stopped a Huang family cultivator who wanted to chase him, shaking his head and saying.
Near Yunhe Mountain, they still had a large formation to protect their clans. They fought with Master Shu Dan but failed to gain the upper hand.
Now, far away from Yunhe Mountain and without the help of their geographical location, they are no longer a match for Master Shu Dan, the fake elixir master.
"What a pity! If the Huang family was in its prime, how could he be allowed to escape?" Huang Changshun secretly hated him.
Over the past ten years, with the help of Master Shu Dan’s elixirs, the Huang family has gained six more foundation-building monks, bringing the total number of foundation-building monks to nine.
However, in terms of cultivation, these extra foundation-building monks are only in the early stages of foundation-building, and cannot be compared with the foundation-building elites of the previous families.
The former foundation-building elites had some help from their families during the foundation-building process, but most of them had to work **** their own.
Therefore, in terms of character, combat power, and potential, the current number of foundation-building monks are far behind the original foundation-building elites.
With the current strength.
Huang Changshun did not dare to go outside the Yunhe Mountain area to pursue Master Shu Dan.
Even if the Huang family had the ability to kill Master Shu, Huang Changshun would not dare to gamble, because if he lost the bet, it would be difficult for the family to cultivate another six foundation-building monks.
Seeing Master Shu Dan completely fleeing, Huang Changshun turned around and returned to Yunhe Mountain.
However, when Huang Changshun faced the Yunhe Mountain covered by clouds and mist in front of him, he suddenly fell in love with the scene and thought of the same decision he made twenty years ago that he made today.
“Don’t dare to gamble!”
“I don’t dare to gamble again!”
Huang Changshun laughed at himself, his eyes slightly red, "Does the family business have to completely fail in my hands? Obviously, I made the right decision."
A trip to a secret place.
He foresaw that the Huang family might encounter a crisis in the secret realm, so he cut the number in half and sent only the seven most powerful Huang family foundation-building monks into the secret realm.
But after the secret realm ended, all the Huang family monks died, and no one survived.
Drive away Wei Tu.
One is to welcome Alchemist Shu as a worshiper and use his alchemy skills to revive the family's strength.
Second, it is to maximize the interests of the family. Wei Tu has a wide network of contacts, so it is not easy for him to use him as a scapegoat. And Wei Tu's heart is not with the Huang family, so squeezing out its remaining value is the most appropriate approach. As for treating Master Shu Dan harshly.
This move is indeed suspected of being respectful and arrogant, but if Master Shu Dan is not allowed to go to the front line of the battlefield to take the place of the Huang family monks, does he have to watch the family monks die on the battlefield?
People's hearts!
Not as good as family interests.
All this is for the Huang family.
Ancestor Huang Xinglie also agreed with his decision and never opposed it.
However-
It’s now.
Huang Changshun suddenly felt that he was powerless, and the Huang family in Heshan slowly declined due to his correct decisions one after another.
This feeling was like there was a pair of big hands of fate controlling him invisibly behind his back. No matter how hard he tried, it would be of no avail.
“A family is not as good as a casual cultivator.” Huang Changshun sighed silently.
Casual cultivators dare to gamble and fight, but family cultivators lack these two characteristics. For the sake of the family's legacy, they can only stick to the old ways and be complacent.
In times of peace, the Immortal Cultivating Family could steadily suppress the rogue cultivators, but in today's chaotic era, the Immortal Cultivating Family is far inferior to the rogue cultivators.
This was also the reason why he had a premonition that the Huang family in Heshan would decline.
With this "powerlessness", no matter what remedial measures he takes, it will be difficult to reverse the situation.
In other words, this is the fate of the Huang family in Heshan.
“What if I bet?” Huang Changshun thought silently.
But soon, Huang Changshun shook his head.
Not only did he not dare to gamble, but his ancestor Huang Xinglie also did not dare to gamble.
Before the trip to the secret realm, if the ancestor Huang Xinglie had resisted the pressure of True Monarch Wan Hai and not let the Jia family monks enter the secret realm, the following series of things would not have happened.
These are common problems among the monks in their family!
…
Huang Changshun lamented that it was obviously difficult to know the Wei map hidden outside Yunhe Mountain.
After Wei Tu saw Master Shu Dan escaping calmly from Yunhe Mountain, he couldn't help but be stunned by Huang Changshun's indecisiveness.
On the premise that he sent a secret message.
The Huang family of Heshan actually let Master Shu Dan away, their formidable enemy.
“The Huang family of Heshan, a family that started with formations, can’t even besiege Master Shu Dan?” Wei Tu was extremely helpless.
If the Huang family can imprison and kill Master Shu Dan in Yunhe Mountain, and then Huang Xinglie, the ancestor of the Golden Pill, searches for Master Shu's soul, his next situation will undoubtedly be much easier.
Even if Huang Xinglie did not pursue Shu Yunmeng and Liu Zuoshi afterwards, but he would only use Master Shu Dan's memory as evidence of crime and report it to the Immortal Sect, this would be a big trouble for Shu Yunmeng and Liu Zuoshi.
But rather.
The Huang family of Heshan let Master Shu Dan go.
“If Master Shu Dan is let go, the Huang family in Heshan will be in big trouble from now on.” Wei Tu looked at Yunhe Mountain in the distance and thought to himself.
The Huang family was unable to kill Master Shu Dan despite occupying a favorable location. This was a symbol of the Huang family's weakness in the eyes of others.
This means that as long as you have the strength of the fake elixir, you can come and go freely in Yunhe Mountain.
This is a greater disaster than the loss of several foundation-building monks to the Huang family.
The Huang family's preservation of strength sends another signal - the Huang family only has these strengths and does not dare to fight to the death.
"It seems that God is destined to destroy the Huang family." Wei Tu waved his sleeves and robes, left Yunhe Mountain, and chased Master Shu Dan in the direction where he fled.
This time, he provided information to the Huang family. Although he had other selfish motives, if the Huang family could grasp the benefits of this information, it would also be beneficial to the Huang family themselves. It can not only solve internal crises, but also greatly reduce external crises.
However-
The direction of things.
It was beyond Wei Tu’s expectation.
Not only did the Huang family fail to seize this opportunity to solve the external troubles of Shu Danshi and Shu Yunmeng, but they also exposed the internal reality of their own family and added some crises to the family's situation.
…
"The smell of blood. It seems that Master Shu Dan was seriously injured in this battle."
A few days later, Wei Tu walked to a wilderness. He sniffed the scent a few times, determined a direction, and chased after it.
Before Master Shu Dan started fighting with the monks of the Huang family, he had already released the Sky-Splitting Sculpture, and was staring at the direction of Yunhe Mountain from a high altitude.
After Master Shu Dan escaped, he immediately sent Split Kong Diao to follow Master Shu Dan closely.
However, after arriving in this wilderness.
Master Shu Dan suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Therefore, Wei Tu had no choice but to come over in person and use his fragrant nose to carefully explore the place where Master Shu Dan was hiding.
Weitu starts searching everywhere.
With his current strength, Wei Tu was not afraid of Master Shu Dan who was seriously injured. The Huang family failed to kill Master Shu. They killed the lone Master Shu, but the effect was the same.
