Zhou Mingde's words were easily confirmed through the mouths of the surviving monks of the Mu family.
After confirming that Zhou Mingde's words were true, Taoist Mingxia and another Taoist from Qinglian Temple were in extremely uncomfortable moods.
There was only less than half an hour left.
As long as they arrive half an hour in advance, the Mu family can save him. Even if the black dragon guardian of Hualong Sect wants to escape, it will not be so easy!
Now, just because of this half an hour, a family that has been cultivating immortals for more than three hundred years and the most loyal vassal family of Qinglian Temple has been wiped out.
"One Sword Dominates"
How could this result make the two Qinglian Temple monks feel comfortable?
And just when the two Qinglian Temple monks were in a sad mood, thinking about how to deal with the aftermath of the Mu family's destruction, Zhou Mingde also took advantage of the situation and said to them: "Since the Mu family has two Taoist friends here, let's use
I won’t be with Zhou anymore, Zhou still needs to guard the family gate, so I’ll take my leave first.”
Hearing his words, Taoist Mingxia immediately nodded slightly and said, "Fellow Taoist Zhou, please go back with peace of mind. I accept the kindness of Taoist Taoist to the Mu family today for the Mu family. When Master Mu and his nephews return in the future, we can rebuild the family."
I will definitely come to my door in person to express my gratitude to fellow Taoist monks."
"Then Zhou left."
Zhou Mingde said, then he bowed his hands towards the two of them, and quickly left Biyun Mountain on the Vulcan Jackal.
"Junior sister Mingxia, are you familiar with that fellow Taoist Zhou?"
After watching Zhou Mingde go away, the male Taoist couldn't help but look at Taoist Mingxia curiously and asked in a low voice.
Hearing his question, Taoist Mingxia couldn't help but glance at him, then nodded slightly and said, "We have some friendship!"
Hearing this, the male Taoist immediately said: "This person is not weak. He was able to force back a Dragon Transformation Sect protector. It seems that if we can find the Dragon Transformation Sect's people, we can ask him to help him.
Encirclement and suppression.”
"It's okay to ask him to help us, but the premise is that we have to find talented people!"
Taoist Mingxia frowned and said in a low tone: "Now that the Mu family has been robbed, we still don't know which family those guys will extend their claws to next. I have been assigned by the temple master to come to Lanzhou to stabilize the rear, but we can't
Let those guys continue to wreak havoc like this!"
"Junior sister is right, we really can't let those guys continue to wreak havoc, otherwise it won't look good on you or me."
The male Taoist's face straightened and he also paid attention to this matter.
The two of them stayed on Biyun Mountain for half a day, waiting for some "late" reinforcements from various families to arrive.
Naturally, the two of them didn't have a good impression of these reinforcements that came after such a long time.
But I also know that I can't blame others for this, after all, even the two of them were late.
So I could only appease the reinforcements from all sides who were frightened by what happened to the Mu family, and then took the surviving monks of the Mu family to Hongyafang City to stay and practice temporarily.
On the Jiufeng Ridge side, after learning about what happened to the Mu family from the mouth of the returned Zhou Mingde, Zhou Chun and other Zhou family monks were also filled with sadness.
They are also a cultivating family, and they are also a good friend of the alliance. The Mu family's experiences can easily make the monks of the Zhou family feel sympathy and empathize with them!
This is the cruelty of the world of immortality!
Even if you don't take the initiative to provoke anyone, disaster may suddenly fall from the sky and destroy your family and clan because of the issue of alignment.
Today it is the Mu family, but I don’t know which family it will be in the future.
Any Immortal Cultivation Family in Lanzhou is probably feeling sad and mourning for the Mu family.
After talking about the results of the Mu family's trip, Zhou Mingde also looked at Zhou Chun and others with a serious face and warned: "Although I won the favor of fellow Taoist Mingxia for rescuing the Mu family this time, I did offend that person.
A protector of the Dragon Hua Cult."
"In order to prevent that person from actually retaliating against the Zhou family, you and others must be more careful next time, so that the people guarding the formation below should be alert and don't let people from the Hualong Sect sneak in and cause damage."
After hearing his warning, Zhou Chun and others also looked stern, and immediately responded: "Yes, we will definitely keep in mind the teachings of the Supreme Elder."
Next, the Zhou family really stepped up their efforts to interrogate the monks who entered the mountain gate. The three elders even took turns sitting at the entrance of the mountain gate to inspect the monks who entered the mountain gate.
Zhou Chun even ordered that the casual cultivators guarding the "Jingling Pavilion" be reduced by half and replaced by Zhou family monks.
Make sure that every Jingling Pavilion has at least two Zhou family monks present at all times, and there must be monks whose cultivation level is higher than casual cultivators.
The subsequent impact of the destruction of the Mu family in Biyun Mountain spread quickly.
First, all the immortal cultivating families in Lanzhou were in panic, and they once again stepped up their vigilance.
Then some families who are good friends with each other have increased their contact and made an agreement that if one party is in trouble, the other party will immediately support them.
Even some weaker families have begun to disperse their family manpower and send some of their young descendants to Hongyafang City or Lianzhou.
In this way, even if someone really knocks on the door and destroys the family like the Mu family, there will still be a chance to make a comeback in the future.
During this time, the Zhou family also became the target of favors from some families.
Zhou Chun was right when he said it before. The positive attitude and noble sentiments shown by the Zhou family in rescuing the Mu family really made some families feel admired and touched.
As the saying goes, a friend in need is a friend indeed.
No matter how nice the words are, no matter how beautiful the covenant is.
Will you act in accordance with the covenant if something really happens?
No one will know until the end.
The Zhou family was able to fully abide by the covenant this time and promptly sent the family's only Zifu period monk to rescue the Mu family.
This attitude means that no one can question or find fault.
With this precedent, at a time when everyone is insecure, when other families think of foreign aid, they will naturally think of the Zhou family first.
Therefore, almost the day after the incident in the Mu family, the Sun family in Jinfengling, which was closest to the Zhou family, directly came to the Zhou family in person from the patriarch Sun Zhongping to pay homage to Zhou Mingde and gave him a generous gift.
You must know that in the past, due to the fact that there were monks of the Zifu period in the Qinglian Temple, the Sun family had always regarded itself as the second oldest family in the alliance of the five major immortal cultivating families, and only considered themselves slightly inferior to the Wang family.
But this time when Sun Zhongping came to visit Zhou Mingde, he kept his attitude very low, and even said some words that would respect the Zhou family in the future.
Apparently he was completely frightened by what happened to the Mu family!
It's no wonder that when it comes to the relationship with Qinglian Temple, the Sun family is no worse than the Mu family, it can even be said to be deeper.
This time the Mu family was destroyed. Who can say that it won’t be their Sun family’s turn next time?
If it was their Sun family's turn, how could the Sun family, without the Zifuqi monks in charge of the family, be any better than the Mu family?
If that time comes, they won't be able to count on the Qinglian Temple. The only thing they can count on is the Zhou family, which is only more than 300 miles away from the Sun family.
With such a small distance, at Zhou Mingde's speed, he could reach it in less than half an hour.
Faced with the Sun family's overtures of kindness, Zhou Mingde naturally accepted it happily and stated righteously that the two families were related by marriage and should help each other.
Although no guarantee has been given, the attitude has been released.
Sun Zhongping also knew that it was completely unrealistic to ask for any guarantee, and Zhou Mingde would not be able to give any guarantee.
Therefore, being able to get some relatively good feedback has been able to calm his own emotions and appease the Sun family members.
He left the Zhou family quite satisfied.
After that, there were also many other monks from the Immortal Cultivation Family who came to visit like Sun Zhongping. Even the He family from Qingzhu Mountain, which was thousands of miles away, also sent a foundation-building elder to visit.
Everything was just like Zhou Chun's judgment when he heard about Hualong Cult's invasion of Jingguo.
For the Zhou family, the sabotage and attack of local forces by external forces outweighs the disadvantages. It is more conducive for the Zhou family to take the opportunity to gain popularity and reputation and expand the family's influence.
As long as the Zhou family can protect themselves from being destroyed, they can become one of the winners in this war with no winner.
"Who should I choose next?"
"The Zhou family in Jiufengling? This won't work. A family with monks from the Zifu period is not something that I, the protector, can take advantage of. I have to let them go first!"
"Then choose the Chen family in Shuangfengling? No, no, it's too close to Hongyafang City. It's more than five hundred miles away. Those smelly Taoist priests from Qinglian Temple can arrive in less than an hour. It's too risky!"
In the temporarily lurking camp of casual cultivators, the Black Dragon Guardian of Hualong Sect looked at the marks of various cultivating families on the map in his hand, with hesitation in his eyes.
The success in the Mu family did not really make him get carried away.
He also knew in his heart that when he was deep behind enemy lines without reinforcements, he must not make any mistakes, otherwise he would easily lose his life.
But he also knew that with the destruction of the Mu family, Qinglian Temple's tracking of the whereabouts of this group of people would be greatly intensified.
This casual cultivator camp that houses their shelter and supplies may be exposed at any time.
Once this place is exposed, without a place to live and supply, they will naturally lose the ability to do things outside.
After all, they can't always restore their mana by taking elixirs like [Rejuvenation Pill].
Therefore, it is necessary to expand the results as much as possible before being exposed and cause greater panic in Lanzhou.
Therefore, after studying the map for a long time, his eyes focused on a certain point above and could not move away.
"Then let's take this family. Although this family is not so closely connected with Qinglian Temple, the family is rich enough. If you fuck them, I will have extra money for this trip!"
He punched the map hard and quickly made up his mind.
Two days later, the Yu family, a family in Lanzhou that had been inherited for more than 600 years, was attacked by the Hualong Cult. The five foundation-building monks of the Yu family, along with three foundation-building monks from two other immortal cultivating families who came to support, were all killed by the Hualong Cult.
Under the Dragon Cult monks.
In this battle, more than 120 people in the Yu family who were cultivators of immortality were killed on the spot, and more than 70 people were destroyed in their cultivation and completely reduced to useless people.
As for the Yu family, who is famous for their talisman-making skills and owns several secret talismans, all of their family's savings for many years were plundered by the Hualong Cult!
After this news came out, the blow to the immortal cultivation world in Lanzhou was several times greater than that of the Mu family.
After all, not only has the Yu family inherited a long history, but the power displayed in this battle is even multiple times that of the Mu family.
The result was like this, still being destroyed by a branch of the Hualong Sect!
This result made those cultivating families without Zifu period monks in charge all feel like frightened birds, and they were in panic all day long.
If it weren't for the fact that they were really reluctant to leave behind the mountain gate that had been passed down by their families for many years, I'd be afraid that some families would really want to flee Lanzhou!
At the same time, tremendous pressure also fell on several Qinglian Guanzi Mansion monks including Taoist Mingxia.
Because although the various cultivating families are reluctant to flee Lanzhou, they will not do nothing.
One of the things they did in unison was to mobilize all the tribesmen in Qinglian Temple to write a letter to the sect, making a strong statement and putting pressure on Taoist Mingxia and others in disguise.
Qinglian Temple is not a sect of one person, there are many factions within it.
Immortal cultivating families in Lanzhou, Yunzhou and other states are deeply involved with certain factions, and usually have many benefits from offering sacrifices.
Now that families are facing a life-and-death crisis, these families naturally want to ask these high-level monks from Qinglian Temple who have been paying tribute for a long time to help.
The so-called cannibalism is short-tongued and soft-handed. Since those high-level monks of Qinglian Temple have been accepting offerings from others for a long time in the past, they must make some efforts to help at this time.
Therefore, Taoist Mingxia, who took over the sect's mission and went to Lanzhou to take charge, naturally became the target of pressure from these high-level monks.
"The temple owner has already sent a message, saying that there must never be a third family killed, otherwise we and I will be derelict in our duties!"
"Junior Sister Mingxia, what do you think we should do now?"
In Hongyafang City, the male Taoist priest who went to the Mu family in Biyun Mountain with Taoist Mingxia that day was sitting opposite each other in the quiet room with Taoist Mingxia and talking about the latest news from the sect.
.
Both of them had been to the mountain gate of the Yu family, and the tragedy was truly unbearable to witness.
But you really can’t blame them!
The mountain gate of the Yu family is thousands of miles away from Hongyafang City. At their speed, it would take nearly two hours to get there.
The Yu family did not set out as many beacons as the Mu family did, but only used messenger talismans to call for help.
By the time they received the news of the attack on the Yu family, it was already more than an hour later.
How can they go to the rescue in time?
But this reason is obviously not enough to satisfy the sect. After all, the superiors only care about the results and not the process.
The result is that they did not do their job well and failed in their duties.
At this time, facing the inquiry from his fellow disciples, Taoist Mingxia raised his head after being silent for a long time and said: "According to the message from the survivors of the Yu family, the black dragon protector of the Hualong Sect was also injured by the head of the Yu family with a talisman.
, and many members of the Hualong Sect were also injured."
After saying that, he looked at the other party and asked: "Senior brother Mingjian, if they don't leave Lanzhou directly, where will they hide to recuperate now?"
Taoist Ming Jian was startled when he heard what she said. Then he looked at her with surprise in his eyes and said, "Junior sister Mingxia, have you thought of any solution?"
"I did think of a way, but I still need to find a lot of people to help!"
Taoist Mingxia nodded slightly, and then whispered his own method.
