In the west of the spiritual world, in a barren mountain.
A disciple heard what the middle-aged man said and hurried down the mountain. After passing through the layers of formations, he entered a small world.
After passing the message through several people, the news finally reached the ears of the family head.
But the head of the family only heard one sentence and immediately rejected it.
"No action is allowed. No member is allowed to be tainted with a powerful person above the immortal general, lest the Zheng family perish in this world."
As soon as this order came out, it was relayed layer by layer, and soon spread throughout the entire mountain.
But what the patriarch didn't expect was that not long after the news spread, a lot of not-so-good news came back...
Not long ago, a large group of worshipers escaped without telling the higher-ups.
The target seems to be Li Na city...
When the head of the Zheng family heard the news, he was immediately furious: "Nonsense!"
Then he immediately notified a large group of senior officials of the Zheng family and climbed to various peaks to observe the two figures above.
"Who knows the whereabouts of the offering?" The head of the Zheng family shouted loudly, standing on the second highest peak in the entire mountain range.
Soon someone from other peaks replied: "Go home, Lord, and go to Li Na city."
According to the rules handed down from their ancestors, the head of the family can only stand on the second peak.
And if anyone dares to stand on the highest peak, it means that he will challenge the current head of the family and replace the highest position.
The current head of the Zheng family, Zheng Yuequn, is the man who reached the highest peak back then and fought to become the head of the family with his strength.
When Zheng Yuequn heard the shouts from the surrounding peaks, he was furious: "Wait until you know that there is an immortal from Lijian Sect coming to this world!"
All the senior executives responded in unison: "I know!"
Hearing this, Zheng Yuequn became furious: "Who mobilized those offerings!?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire mountain range fell into silence, with no one responding.
Zheng Yuequn became even more angry: "My master, I would like to ask again, who mobilized those worshipers!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a young voice sounded.
"It's me."
The heads of the peaks were surprised when they heard this, and they all looked down.
But in front of the door of the retreat cave, two figures, one white and one red, stood there, with aura overflowing from their bodies. It was obvious that they had just made a breakthrough.
Seeing this, Zheng Yuequn frowned slightly: "Yuan'er, are these really the sacrifices you mobilized?"
Below, in front of the cave door, Zheng Yuan patted Mei Su'er on the shoulder with a smile: "Wait for me, I'll be back soon."
Mei Suer held Zheng Yuan's hand and whispered: "I'll be with you."
Zheng Yuan smiled, reassured her, and then left her where she was.
Immediately, he stood on the top alone.
Zheng Yuan lowered his head and looked around, with a faint smile on his lips, very calmly.
As soon as this move came out, the leaders of all the peaks, including Zheng Yuequn of the second peak, were stunned.
"Don't mess around! Yuan'er, come down quickly!" Zheng Yuequn shouted loudly.
But Zheng Yuan not only did not come down, he also looked at Zheng Yuequn with a calm face: "Dad, since the establishment of the Zheng family, has anyone survived and reached the top?"
Zheng Yuequn was stunned again when he heard this: "Yuan'er, you..."
Zheng Yuan changed his previous cowardice, drew his sword and pointed it at the sky, his white robe flapping in the wind.
"Today's world is no longer what it used to be. If we continue to struggle with food and clothing, no force will be able to survive to the next era."
An old man at the head of the peak frowned when he heard this: "How outrageous! Do you know the consequences of being an enemy of immortals!?"
Zheng Yuan looked around at the top of the peaks. They were all his elders.
Finally, he turned his attention to the elder who spoke and said calmly: "Of course I know."
"But if you don't become an enemy of immortals, will the outcome be any better?"
As soon as these words came out, the leaders of the peak fell silent again.
Zheng Yuan continued to speak and talked eloquently: "Tianji Pavilion worships immortals and has led the spirit clan for nearly three epochs. What about now?"
"The Li Jian Sect is led by immortals, and even tried to usher the immortals into the spiritual world, but now a single immortal general has destroyed the city of Li."
"Do you really think, elders, that if you don't become an enemy of the Immortal Clan, you will end up with a good end?"
Not far away, an old man on the top of a peak said: "Even if there is no good outcome for being associated with immortals, can there be any good for being an enemy of immortals?"
"We have protected the Zheng family all our lives, do you want us to watch the Zheng family perish at your hands?"
Zheng Yuan looked at Lao Shu and said calmly: "Zheng Chunhua, a native of the second era of immortality."
Hearing this, Zheng Yuequn immediately frowned and scolded: "Yuan'er! Be careful!"
Zheng Yuan made a gesture to Zheng Yuequn, indicating that he was clear in his heart.
As the head of the Zheng family, Zheng Yuequn did not intend to stop his rapid progress, so he listened silently.
The old man looked dissatisfied and stared at Zheng Yuan with his slightly cloudy eyes.
Zheng Yuan continued: "As Yuan'er's biological aunt, she has the most direct bloodline from the ancestors of the Zheng family."
"In the second era of immortality, he defeated the Aoshi clan who tried to invade the Zheng family. He became famous in one battle and was promoted to the top general of the Zheng family."
"Later, during the conflict between the western powers, he promised to fight to the death with the strong men of all ethnic groups, and then he fought against the strong men of all ethnic groups on his own, so that all the Zheng family members had no worries and could fight with peace of mind."
"Later, the Zheng family announced its seclusion and became a peak..."
Listening to Zheng Yuan's inventory, Lao Shu's expression gradually improved, but at the same time he looked suspicious.
This kid has been rebellious since he was a child. If he says something nice now, he may do more harm than good later.
Immediately, Lao Shu gradually prepared to retaliate.
Unexpectedly, Zheng Yuan just looked into Lao Shu's eyes and said calmly.
"My former aunt had outstanding military exploits and was a rare giant in my Zheng family."
"Although I am old now, my realm is more advanced than before."
"But why have you lost your will to fight?"
Laoshu was stunned when he heard this, and the words he was about to retort were choked in his throat.
After a long while, he choked out a sentence: "I'm old, so naturally I have to protect what I once had!"
When Zheng Yuan heard this, the corners of his mouth raised slightly: "Yes, you are old, but tomorrow is still a new day."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.
They looked around, and all they saw were old friends from back then.
Since the Zheng family has retired from the world and stopped fighting, the younger generation has been unable to achieve military exploits and has gradually lost its chance to be at the top of the mountain.
Gradually, the strong men at the top of the peak grew old and lost their edge.
Only when the Zheng family faces a crisis can they use nearly ten percent of their power...
Zheng Yuan's words were like a blow to the head, hitting them in the heart.
yes……
They are old and no longer show their sharpness.
But the immortal clan covets everyone from all walks of life!
When the time comes to use all the strength of the world to fight against the immortals, are they the ones who have the final say whether or not they are contaminated by the cause and effect?
Seeing that the time was almost up, Zheng Yuan continued: "Before the general trend of the world, no force can stay away."
"We are just a force in the spiritual world. Why do you think we can escape?"
As soon as these words came out, the leaders of the peak fell silent again.
When the Zheng family disciples heard these words, they all cheered for Zheng Yuan!
Finally, Zheng Yuequn spoke.
"So, do you really want to take the position of head of the family?"
