"Haha, senior Dao Wuji must have killed Patriarch Yuntian with his sword."
...
Everyone in the ten major families smiled happily and went outside to greet Dao Wuji.
Soon, Dao Wuji arrived.
Everyone from the ten major families stepped forward, only to see that there was no joy on Dao Wuji's face.
Seemed extremely calm.
Everyone was stunned.
Then they all started to admire him.
"This is what a master is. He doesn't express his emotions or anger. He obviously won a great victory, but it's as if nothing happened."
"The calmer it is, the more decisive the victory is."
"It seems that we made a wise choice by inviting this senior."
...
Everyone quickly walked to Dao Wuji.
"Congratulations, senior, on your triumphant return!"
Everyone bowed and saluted.
Dao Wuji couldn't help but frown when he saw them like this.
What kind of tricks are you doing?
Congratulations on my return victorious?
Are you mocking me?
Are you going to kill me?
Dao Wuji suddenly felt a little unhappy.
"I lost."
He said directly.
Everyone was stunned.
What?
What is Dao Wuji talking about?
"Um, what did you say, senior?"
Someone asked uncertainly.
"I said, I lost."
Dao Wuji repeated it again, very calmly.
He didn't feel ashamed at all because he lost.
On the contrary, he looked confident and confident.
Everyone present was dumbfounded.
All of them seemed to be mute, unable to make any sound for a long time.
Dao Wuji lost?
He actually lost?
How is this possible?
These are the three doubts that appear in everyone’s head?
They really couldn't accept that even a senior expert like Dao Wuji couldn't defeat Yuntian City?
Seeing that everyone was stunned, Dao Wuji continued: "The Yuntian Ancestor from Yuntian City is powerful, has advanced cultivation, and has understood the great ways of heaven and earth. I am no match for him."
Understood the Great Way of Heaven and Earth?
This sentence shocked everyone present.
Ancestor Yuntian actually understood the great way of heaven and earth?
This is no joke.
Understanding the Great Way of Heaven and Earth is an opportunity that all cultivators long for but cannot seek.
The great road of heaven and earth is a vast and mysterious existence.
No one knows where it actually exists.
Only with that moment of enlightenment can it be possible to grasp the fleeting avenue of heaven and earth.
Integrate it into your own martial arts.
However, any warrior who has some understanding of the great ways of heaven and earth, even if they are at the same level, will definitely be far more powerful than warriors of the same level.
This is recognized by the cultivation world.
How many people can understand the great way of heaven and earth?
Just talking about Beichuan, there is probably not a single person who has truly understood the Great Way of Heaven and Earth.
Even if there are, they are probably already extremely scary old monsters.
Such an old monster is an existence that even the ten major families cannot touch.
Beings like Dao Wuji are already the most powerful masters that the top ten families can hire.
But even Dao Wuji, although powerful, was not able to comprehend the great ways of heaven and earth.
But Patriarch Yuntian is a person who has truly understood the great way of heaven and earth.
How can the top ten families accept this?
It is very unwise to be an enemy of a strong man who has understood the great way of heaven and earth.
It may even put the top ten families into a desperate situation.
For a moment, everyone present fell into silence.
They all felt their faces were burning, as if they had been slapped hard several times.
Dao Wuji glanced at them and spoke again: "I advise you to put aside your thoughts of being an enemy of Yuntian City."
"Otherwise, it will be difficult for the top ten families to gain a foothold in Beichuan."
After speaking, Dao Wuji turned around and left regardless of the reactions of these people.
The members of the ten major families have not been retained.
Since Dao Wuji has lost, there is no need to save him.
But Dao Wuji's words also made everyone's hearts become heavier.
If they are enemies with Yuntian City again, will the ten major families be unable to gain a foothold?
What does it mean?
Could it be said that Yuntian City will completely defeat their ten major families?
This is definitely a situation that is unacceptable to the top ten families.
"Master Xiao, it seems we still need your Xiao family to take action."
A family head looked at Xiao Zhennan.
Xiao Zhennan's expression changed: "What do you mean?"
The man sneered: "I have long heard that Patriarch Yuntian of Yuntian City has something to do with your Xiao family."
"Since the Yuntian Ancestor is powerful and cannot be defeated, how about asking the Xiao family to come forward and persuade the Yuntian Ancestor to disband Yuntian City and join us and other ten major families?"
As soon as this statement came out, it was immediately approved by many people.
"Yes, now we really need the Xiao family to step forward."
"Xiao Zhennan, your Xiao family has always been idle and unwilling to be the enemy of Yuntian City."
"Now let your Xiao family persuade Ancestor Yuntian to submit to the ten major families."
"If not, your Xiao family will be the enemy of my nine major families!"
...
Xiao Zhennan's expression changed drastically.
He didn't expect that things would turn out like this.
The nine major families actually united to put pressure on the Xiao family, asking the Xiao family to persuade Patriarch Yuntian?
This is simply forcing others to do something difficult.
"What? Are you going to force me, the Xiao family, to do this?"
Xiao Zhennan sneered.
"Master Xiao, if your Xiao family doesn't want to go, that's fine, but from now on, among the ten major families in Beichuan, there will only be nine major families."
"That's right, and you'd better explain why the Xiao family didn't work hard before."
"Master Xiao, don't forget that your Xiao family is still a part of Beichuan!"
...
Everyone spoke out one after another, completely blaming the Xiao family for the sake of justice.
Xiao Zhennan's expression was extremely ugly.
Anger surged in my heart.
But he also knew very well that he could not have an attack at this moment.
Otherwise, the Xiao family will really fall out with other families.
Xiao Zhennan felt bitter.
The Xiao family did not work hard before.
Because we know that Patriarch Yuntian is Guo Xiaoyun, and he is also Ye Qingyun’s disciple.
They dare not antagonize him.
I can only pretend.
But people from other families are not fools.
Naturally, we can see the attitude of the Xiao family.
In addition, Guo Xiaoyun had stayed in the Xiao family for a period of time before, so it was easy to find out.
"Okay! I promise you!"
Xiao Zhennan gritted his teeth and said.
"Master Xiao, this is right."
Xiao Zhennan snorted.
"But I can't guarantee that I can definitely convince Patriarch Yuntian, so don't have high expectations."
After saying that, Xiao Zhennan didn't care about their reactions and left directly.
Everyone looked at each other.
"What should the Xiao family do if their persuasion fails?"
"Then there is only one last resort."
"any solution?"
"Have you forgotten? Who else is there north of Beichuan?"
"Hiss!!! What you are saying is..."
...
Xiao Zhennan returned to the Xiao family, looking solemn and worried.
When everyone in the Xiao family saw this, they didn't dare to ask.
Until I met my daughter Xiao Shi.
"Father, what's wrong?"
When Xiao Shi saw Xiao Zhennan's expression, he knew something must have happened and asked quickly.
Xiao Zhennan looked at Xiao Shi and sighed.
"Dao Wuji lost to Patriarch Yuntian. Now the other nine major families are forcing our Xiao family to negotiate with Patriarch Yuntian and persuade Patriarch Yuntian to dissolve Yuntian City and submit to the ten major families."
"What?"
When Xiao Shi heard this, he was also shocked.
"How could they do this?"
Xiao Zhennan's face was full of bitterness.
"Our Xiao family has never really contributed before. They have always seen it in their eyes. Now it is our Xiao family who is in the wrong."
Xiao Shi was speechless.
Xiao Zhennan looked at Xiao Shi and felt a little guilty.
"Daughter, I'm afraid you really need to go to Yuntian City this time."
Xiao Shi was stunned.
"I?"
"Well, after all, you and Patriarch Yuntian know each other, he... he may be able to disband Yuntian City for your sake."
