Anyang County, Shangguan Family.
After receiving the ssage from Chen Diling, Zhang Yuanyuan angrily smashed her favorite Cuixian tea cup.
Three months ago.
She had clearly warned her father to behave and stay out of trouble.
How long has it been, and now these issues have arisen:
"How did I end up with such an unreliable father?!"
If they continue like this.
I fear the Zhang Family might be dood.
Without her maternal family.
She would feel less secure in the Shangguan Family:
"I need to quickly select soone from the Qing Generation to nurture."
Given her father’s foolishness.
The position of Zhang Family’s clan leader should never have been his in the first place.
All these years.
She has been cleaning up after him.
The more Zhang Yuanyuan thought about it, the angrier she beca.
But anger aside.
After all, he is her father. She couldn’t just watch him jump into a pit of fire, and if this is not handled properly, the Zhang Family might end up like the Li Family before.
Zhang Yuanyuan sat silently for half a cup of tea ti to calm herself, then made a hand gesture, sending spiritual power into the communication jade talisman. The talisman emitted an urgent buzzing sound for a long ti, but no response ca from the other side:
"What’s going on?"
Zhang Yuanyuan imdiately sat upright.
Just as she was about to make the gesture again.
A gust of cold wind blew by.
Soon after, Zhang Huanzhi, covered in blood, was standing in front of her.
"Father!"
Zhang Yuanyuan exclaid:
"Weren’t you at Leimang Mountain? How did you get so badly injured? Who attacked you so viciously, was it those little Fu Family kids?"
Though she complained about her father being unreliable, he was still her father, and she couldn’t help but feel worried.
But Zhang Huanzhi didn’t speak; he just looked at her quietly, his eyes full of regret, reluctance, and unwillingness.
"Father, speak..."
Just as Zhang Yuanyuan stepped forward to support Zhang Huanzhi, she suddenly froze.
When Chen Diling sent the communication, her father had just left Niushou Mountain. In such a short period, unless it was a Nascent Soul Great Power, how could he appear in Anyang County, miles away:
"Father..."
Tears stread down Zhang Yuanyuan’s face, as if all her strength had been drained. As she lifted her foot, it felt like stepping on a cotton pile, soft and unsteady. When she tried to reach for her blood-covered father.
Another gust of cold wind blew.
And her father was nowhere to be found.
Zhang Yuanyuan’s hands trembled as she hurriedly took out the communication jade talisman connected to Chen Diling, made a gesture, and the room filled with an urgent buzzing sound, yet still, no one answered.
At this mont.
Zhang Yuanyuan’s eyes no longer held grief.
But fear.
She sent ssages through several jade talismans, receiving no response, and she collapsed instantly on the ground.
Her father was gone.
The Zhang Family might be gone too!
But her father clearly had the Tier Two Cloud Ring Purple Immortal Tower in hand, and the Mountain Protection Array of Niushou Mountain had just been repaired less than two years ago; it was a Tier Two Protective Array, so who could have exterminated the entire Zhang clan within half a cup of tea ti.
Holding on to her last hope.
She quickly turned and entered the secret chamber.
Inside, on a Soul Harvesting Tree hung several Life Soul Lamps, and the one labeled "Chen Diling" had already extinguished.
Her father and his group were indeed in trouble.
Zhang Yuanyuan’s heart was like being cut by a knife, but she knew this wasn’t the ti for sorrow. She forced herself to calm down, and after a quick thought, she imdiately took out another communication jade talisman, made a gesture, and spoke rapidly:
"Qii Ying, quickly go to Zhang Family Town below Niushou Mountain, and hide the direct descendants of the Zhang Family’s younger generation in a safe place, now, and move quickly!"
The Zhang Family cannot be wiped out.
About an hour later.
The communication jade talisman lit up again.
A hoarse voice ca from inside:
"Madam, we were a step too late. Besides the elderly who cannot move in Zhang Family Town, all others have been taken by the Fu Family people."
The Fu Family?!
It was the Fu Family’s doing.
How is that possible!
The highest cultivation level in the Fu Family was Fu Changsheng’s, who was only at the Eighth-Layer Qi Cultivation:
"It must be that dead girl, Hongyu, who acted!"
According to reports from the clan mbers.
Shangguan Hongyu specifically went to the Ten Thousand Ghosts Abyss to escort the mbers of the Fu Family back to the Clan Mountain. It must be that bitch Hongyu’s doing; otherwise, how could those shrimp soldiers and crab generals of the Fu Family break through Niushou Mountain’s Mountain Protection Array.
A calculating light quickly flashed in Zhang Yuanyuan’s eyes.
According to the court’s laws.
Noble families like theirs, who are granted titles, cannot get involved in disputes of their vassal families. Once discovered, it would be a serious cri:
"Well, Shangguan Hongyu, even if I have to give up everything today, I’ll drag you down."
The Shangguan Family.
Has always been about the competition between her husband and Shangguan Feng. Now that her husband is seriously injured, the power in the Shangguan Family leans directly towards Shangguan Feng’s side. She couldn’t believe the clan mbers would let Shangguan Feng and his daughter grow in power.
Imdiately she quickly left the room and personally faced the Shangguan Clan Leader.
After she exaggerated her suspicions.
The Shangguan Clan Leader not only remained unmoved but looked at her with a glance of pity.
At this mont.
From behind the Shangguan Clan Leader.
Shangguan Feng slowly erged and said coldly:
"Hongyu is currently in seclusion to break through, and this matter can be testified by the Clan Leader. You falsely accused Hongyu without evidence; do you really think I, as her father, am dead!"
Before the words finished.
The Late Stage of Foundation Establishnt pressure on his body transford into a vast force, crashing down on Zhang Yuanyuan.
Zhang Yuanyuan, only at the Peak Qi Cultivation level, couldn’t withstand it; blood seeped from her mouth, nose, and ears instantly, yet it wasn’t the end. Her feet were suddenly thrust into the ground with a thud, and her body was continuously buried into the ground.
If it continued.
Zhang Yuanyuan would undoubtedly die.
The Shangguan Clan Leader waved a sleeve, and a gentle force relieved Shangguan Feng’s pressure entirely, saying indifferently:
"The Zhang Family’s maternal family was exterminated, and she is temporarily overwheld with grief. Elder Hui is still in seclusion, and if anything happens to Zhang, it would not bode well for us when he exits."
The Shangguan Clan Leader’s face had to be respected, and Shangguan Feng glared at Zhang Yuanyuan, coldly saying:
"I’ll spare your life this ti; try anything against Hongyu and Changsheng again, and even if Shangguan Hui cos to challenge , I won’t spare you."
Narrowly escaping from death’s door at Ghost Gate, Zhang Yuanyuan, at this mont, was extrely horrified because it seed her father and others were indeed destroyed by those little Fu Family kids.
When did the Fu Family beco this powerful?!
Her husband won’t exit seclusion for ten years, by which ti the Fu Family would be fully fledged, and seeking revenge for today’s annihilation of the family would be nearly impossible.
Her husband couldn’t be relied on.
She could only rely on herself.
No matter the cost at the Foundation Establishnt Pill auction in Wanning Marketplace, she had to ensure the Foundation Establishnt Pill was auctioned into her own hands!
...
When the news of the Zhang Family’s demise reached the Lei Family.
The Lei Clan Leader was eting with Elder Lei to discuss the matter of Qingcheng Mountain a year later. Although the Lei Clan Leader’s face showed no expression, his heart was far from calm.
The Fu Family had risen at a terrifying speed.
If they couldn’t eliminate them at Qingcheng Mountain, the Lei Family would likely et the sa fate as the Li and Zhang Families at Niushou Mountain!
