Immortality begins with the sword of ignorance

The only conscience of the dynasty, the old man Yu Yong once said that Zhong Cang's massacre of a city's dignitaries would arouse public outrage in the Xuanyuan world where the powerful clans ruled.

The truth is exactly what he said.

The six major families in the Xuanyuan Realm communicated with each other through strange objects and held a meeting of noble clans that day.

"Oh, it's so pitiful that Linyuan City was massacred like this."

"Who says it's not the case? Although they took action first, they might have been forced by the Demon Sect."

"Even if you are not forced, you cannot kill them all. There are so many nobles in Linyuan City, and most of them are gentlemen and good people. You guys should discuss it, why don't you just find a few prominent ones and kill them all? Killing them all would be too cruel... …”

"They are decent sects. Damn, I think they are more cruel than the Demon Sect. At least, the Demon Sect still follows the rules and will not touch us. They will only clear out some muddy sects..."

Not only the six major families, but also some wealthy families were called to the meeting.

Because of this, as soon as the meeting started, everyone started quarreling.

And everyone was blaming Zhong Cang.

After hearing everyone's accusations and curses, the head of the Yi family had a smile on his face, but soon he said:

"Okay, stop arguing. It's time for us to discuss a charter on how to deal with the cruel Yunxiao Sect."

"What else can we do? Naturally, we must fight back resolutely. We must not allow this trend to spread."

"I agree with Brother Xie. If we don't fight back, they can massacre an entire city today, tomorrow, they can massacre an entire clan, and the day after tomorrow, they can kill us all... This kind of trend must not spread."

"Yes, we need to let them understand that it is okay to fight, but not to punish the nobles!"

"Counterattack, counterattack, counterattack..."

This is not the first time that the heads of the six great clans in the Xuanyuan Realm have held a meeting.

However, when they held meetings before, the six major families always had different opinions and constant disputes.

Today is the first time they have made the same decision.

And such a resolution has also been supported by many wealthy families.

The reason for this is that firstly, from the perspective of these wealthy families, the power of the powerful families in the Xuanyuan world is still very strong. The six powerful families jointly support one thing and they dare not oppose it.

Another reason is that as a wealthy family, they feel sad about the death of Linyuan City.

They don't want to fall into this situation, where their butts determine their heads, so they naturally want to safeguard the interests of the powerful family and want the Yunxiao Sect to see the consequences of offending them.

...

Since the resolution was approved by everyone, the meeting of the powerful family was quickly concluded.

However, after the wealthy families left the table, the six powerful families did not leave.

After looking at each other, the head of the Yi family spoke first.

"We need to fight back against the Yunxiao Sect, but we can't all surrender to the Demon Sect. The Demon Sect is not a good thing. If the Yunxiao Sect is expelled, we will be ripped apart. Therefore, we cannot all surrender to the Demon Sect. Let's talk about it. , whoever is ready to surrender first, and whoever is ready to wait and see for the time being."

"I'll go first."

"No, no, no, brother Xie, there is a risk of retaliation from the Taoist sect by taking refuge in the Demon Sect. I'd rather leave this matter to me."

"Ahem, I am crazy about how old you are. As your eldest brother, this burden should be borne by me."

"That's not good. You are very close to that crazy butcher. If you make a declaration of surrender, you won't be afraid of that lunatic leading people to fight him."

"It is possible, but as the saying goes, if I don't go to hell, who will?"

"hehe."

Looking at the upright and awe-inspiring head of the Yang family, the other leaders of the powerful families couldn't help but cursed the old man.

They naturally knew why the head of the Yang family wanted to take refuge in the Demon Sect - Yuan Ying Dan. There were many elderly people in the Yang family who needed Yuan Ying Dan to survive.

The rest of the people who took refuge were also for this reason.

After arguing with each other, in the end, the heads of the powerful families who refused to give in to each other looked at each other and made a decision... to share the elixir.

The Yang family, which was very close to Zhong Cang, was in urgent need of Yuan Ying Dan, and with some agreements, they became the first group to seek refuge.

In addition, another family has also taken refuge in the Demon Sect, and the other four families are preparing to be ambiguous in order to obtain more things.

At the same time, during this meeting, the heads of the six sects not only decided who would join the Demon Sect.

They even discussed what conditions they should ask for if the Yunxiao Sect relented.

"The punishment cannot be used to punish the nobles. They must write this down."

"If we ask for a little more, we will let them know that if they want to control Xuanyuan Realm, they have to rely on us and cannot offend!"

"It would be great if the Yunxiao Sect could execute that lunatic..."

...

As the six clans discussed and the meeting ended, the old head of the Yang family and Yangcheng looked happy, while the young son-in-law showed a trace of hatred on his face, but soon, this trace of hatred was hidden by him. got up.

Then, he said even more worriedly: "Father, we are so close to Linyuan City, is it really okay to seek refuge in the Demon Sect?"

"Of course, normally speaking, after learning the decision of the six major clans, they should not dare to take action. But that butcher dared to kill a city's dignitaries, and his mentality was not normal. I am afraid that he will really lead an army to attack. "

These words made the head of the Yang family laugh.

"Haha, Xiaojiu, I am a little confident in the strength of our Yang family. Our family has ancestors alive. Even if we don't mention the top combat power, we are several times more powerful than the mortal warriors on the opposite side. They are not our opponents, let alone The key thing is...the Demon Sect will not sit idly by."

"We don't want us to surrender out of fear. Next, the Demon Sect will gather a lot of power. The sooner we become targets, the safer we will be."

"In fact, the fact that we, the closest ones, are taking refuge this time is the result of negotiations with the Demon Sect."

"?!!"

The last sentence confused the legitimate son of the Yang family.

He didn't understand why the Demon Sect would make such a decision.

Fortunately, as the legitimate son of a large family, he had received a good education and quickly figured out something.

"The Demon Sect is using us as bait to lure that crazy butcher over!"

...

Just as the legitimate son of the Yang family thought, the Demon Sect did have this idea.

The reason why they made the decision can be gleaned from the thoughts of the Blood Bone Master at that time.

Since they are already hostile, the Demon Sect naturally does not want the Yunxiao Sect to have a peerless genius, especially one who can restrain them.

Therefore, they very much want to cut off such Taoism.

The information collected from all aspects made them understand that Zhong Cang was extremely powerful and had understood the true meaning of thunder at this age. If he was not eliminated quickly, he would definitely become the enemy of themselves and others.

In order to cut off future troubles, they persuaded the Yang family closest to Linyuan City to surrender, hoping to attract Zhong Cang over.

As for Zhong Cang being so powerful that he is invincible?

After some observation and subsequent questioning, the people from the Demon Sect already knew that Zhong Cang was not really invincible.

"That Zhong Cang's strength is indeed top-notch, but it is not unmatchable. A few days ago, he was able to destroy a city because of the favorable timing."

"When he came to the vicinity of Linyuan City, he did not attack immediately. Instead, he garrisoned and waited until dark clouds enveloped him and heavy rain was about to pour. Then he attacked. Such behavior confirmed this point. Therefore, as long as we do not allow him to set up a formation, Time, his strength is only at the level of a top genius, and may not even be as strong as our candidate Saint Son."

"Can kill!"

"Jie Jie, in addition to leading the army to raid, we can also carry out assassinations. Formation masters are most afraid of getting close."

"This is a good idea, you can try it..."

...

As the news about Zhong Cang's massacre of a city spread, the situation in Xuanyuan Realm was changing rapidly, and conspiracies were coming towards Zhong Cang like a web.

In just a few days, dozens of wealthy families defected to the Demon Sect, and the two most powerful families also took the lead in surrendering.

Their surrender made the situation extremely unfavorable to Yunxiao Sect.

And Zhong Cang's reputation became extremely evil due to their propaganda.

Madman, butcher, devil, evil spirit... all kinds of bad names were assigned to Zhong Cang by the powerful families who controlled resources and communication channels.

Some people even wrote poems and articles to criticize him.

Natural disasters came, evil spirits came to the world, and slaughtered a state into nothingness (???)... In short, under their propaganda, Zhong Cang has become an extremely evil person, and even the evil and terror of the Demon Sect is not as evil as Zhong Cang One percent of Cang.

After hearing these rumors, Yue Qianqian and others were a little angry.

"Those bastards, Brother Cang is indeed a bit murderous, but no matter what, he never slaughtered a state into nothing."

"In their eyes, a powerful family is equivalent to belonging to a state, and the rest is not considered a person."

"Hey, look at this. Some people actually say that Senior Brother Zhong Cang has captured all the wives and daughters of wealthy families, and they engage in prostitution during the day and have sex every night..."

All kinds of slanderous rumors are very annoying.

Zhong Cang, on the other hand, didn't care much.

He knew very well that only those who failed would be scolded, and once successful, there would be so-called Confucian sages who would find reasons to defend themselves and write eulogies.

"However, even though I don't care, I can't be slandered in vain. Don't you think I'm an evil ghost or a demon? In that case, I will do as you wish and become an evil ghost, a natural disaster, and a terrifying demon for your family. !”

Here, Zhong Cang is thinking about how to solidify his reputation as an evil ghost and demon.

On the other side, Master Jing Ming also showed murderous intent.

Dozens of wealthy families rebelled. Although he had expected it and issued orders to his disciples to be careful, their losses during this period were still not small.

And this also made him look in the direction of the palace with a very unkind look.

Just when his eyes showed a fierce look, Yu Yong walked in.

Due to the heavy losses, Master Jingming lost his face when facing him.

"Haha, what did the old man on the seat say?"

The disrespectful name made the old man frown, but he sighed and instead of defending, he said:

"His Majesty said that this was not an order given by him, but a common behavior of a wealthy family."

After speaking, he found that Master Jing Ming was still angry, so he explained.

"Your Majesty really didn't do this, and he couldn't stop it. Even though His Majesty is the emperor of the Xuanyuan Realm, he can't decide everything with just one word. When the aristocratic families unite, even he will have to retreat."

"Such things have happened several times in the past."

Such an excuse left Master Jing Ming unable to refute.

Not only in Xuanyuan Realm, but also in Yunxiao Sect, the sect leader cannot decide everything.

When he was silent, Yu Yong said quickly: "Master, let Zhong Cang go back. If he does this, it will only make the Xuanyuan world a mess and make it more disadvantageous for you."

"Moreover, his current situation is not good, and the Yang family has already taken refuge. He is so close, but he is the first to take refuge in the Demon Sect. In the past, a wealthy family would not do such an unwise thing. If something goes wrong, there must be a demon."

"Yangcheng is probably a trap set up by the Yang Family and the Demon Sect for him."

The old man was indeed inclined towards the Taoist sect and had the ability. From some information, he deduced Zhong Cang's situation and the Demonic sect's plan.

However, Master Jingming was not prepared to listen to him. As Zhong Cang asked before, although the old man thought about the people of Xuanyuan Realm and supported the Taoist sect, he was not the emperor and could not restrain everyone.

Listening to him can only prevent the situation from being corrupted, but cannot allow Yunxiao Sect to win.

On the contrary, it is possible for Zhong Cang to open a gap.

However, the premise of all this is that Zhong Cang is strong enough to conquer everything.

Thinking of this, after the old man left, Master Jingming contacted Zhong Cang again and told him that the Yang family was a trap. Then, Master Jingming asked him what he thought.

"This time, they won't give you time to set up your formation. Are you confident that you can break through?"

After hearing this question, Zhong Cang did not answer immediately, but closed his eyes and felt the situation in the sea of ​​consciousness.

At this moment, most of the endless blood in the sea of ​​consciousness has dissipated, and his soul has transformed into a sword shape, shining brightly.

Feeling the Wu Ming Intention Sword that was about to break through, I thought about the huge increase in combat power that the previous advancement of this technique had brought to me.

Now, this technique will be mastered by the third level master and advanced to the fourth level master. A smile appeared on the corner of Zhong Cang's mouth.

"Makoto, I want to give it a try."
