"We didn't understand it just now, but now we realize that our ancestor has good intentions!"
"That's right! The four major families are connected by the same spirit. If the Zhou family declines, the other three families will not be much better. The Mo family was originally the only one. Once the balance they are trying to maintain is broken, the other three families will suffer sooner or later!
"
Zhou Yingze saw that there were still "understanding people" among the elders of the clan, and the anger in his heart subsided slightly.
One thing he didn't tell everyone was that the ancestor had already begun arranging the family's retreat.
Although the situation does not seem to be that bad now, as the saying goes, those who are resourceful must prepare for the worst in everything.
When everyone in the Zhou family was assigning tasks, a red light suddenly penetrated the roof, flew into Zhou Yingze's hand, and turned into a jade bead as big as a thumb.
Zhou Yingze's spiritual consciousness penetrated into it, his face changed drastically, and he lost his voice and said: "Oh no! Something bad has happened!"
…
That day, an earth-shattering event suddenly spread throughout Zhoucheng in just one day.
"The crown prince of Dayong Dynasty launched the Ziwei Palace rebellion, but after the failure, he was thrown into the clan mansion!"
At the same time, a lot of shocking news and various rumors are also spreading!
"All the prince's ministers and confidants were thrown into the sky prison, and the palace soldiers were killed and wounded countless times. Blood flowed into rivers in Yongjing that night. Many immortal cultivating families were implicated by the prince and had their homes ransacked overnight."
"The Holy One has been assassinated, and his life or death is uncertain!"
"It is rumored that when the prince was arrested, he screamed loudly, 'How can there be a prince in the world for two hundred years?', and then there was a hysterical saying, 'The Holy Emperor has been alone for thousands of years, and he has been alone for thousands of years.'"
Among the many rumors about Yongjing, there was one that frightened the Zhou family the most, making them feel like they had fallen into a trap from which they could not escape.
"The Zhou family harbored evil intentions and deceived the prince first, then assassinated the king and killed him later. This is a treasonous act and an unforgivable crime!"
Faced with the influx of rumors and news, people in Zhoucheng were panicked for a while. Everyone knew that the Crown Princess was the daughter of the Zhou family. If the Crown Prince did such a treasonous act now, the Zhou family would definitely be implicated.
It's just that the life or death of the Holy Emperor is uncertain now, and the Zhou family still doesn't know how serious a crime has been committed on him.
The day after the crown prince's defeat, there was a two-day countdown to the wolf-slaying operation.
Just after dawn, another thunderbolt fell on the heads of the Zhou family, making them burnt on the outside and tender on the inside!
"The Holy One died of serious injuries and passed away with the Immortal of Last Night! The second prince succeeded Dabao and ascended the throne as emperor!"
When he heard the news, Zhou Yingze was so furious that he spurted a mouthful of blood two feet away.
Now the Holy Emperor was assassinated by the Zhou family and the shit that caused his death was firmly pinned on the family's head and could not be plucked off.
"Hurry...go to the three major families for help! No matter what the cost, we must let them help the family survive this disaster. Go quickly! If you wait any longer, it will be too late!"
Zhou Yingze didn't even bother to wipe away the blood, so he ordered angrily.
The situation was very serious, and it was too late to send people there. The Zhou family had no choice but to send out multiple Wanli-line talismans to the other three major families, making many promises and giving away countless benefits in the talismans.
Less than two hours later, both the Kuanghu Wu Family and the Owl Eagle Yan Family sent back letters, saying that they would definitely help.
Zhou Yingze felt a little relieved when he saw this.
But he waited and waited, but never got a reply from Sleeping Lion's family.
This made his heart slowly sink to the bottom.
The Sleeping Lion Hua family is the head of the Yong clan, second only to the royal family Mo family in terms of strength, and is supported by the Six Desires Demon Sect, a major demon sect.
Only when the Hua family comes forward and leads the other clans can they compete with the royal family.
Now the Hua family...has an ambiguous attitude.
This is extremely bad news for the Zhou family, which is in urgent need of support.
Seeing dusk fall, Zhou Yingze was filled with hatred and secretly said: "No! This matter must be reported to the ancestor as soon as possible."
As the thoughts came together, he couldn't control his restless mood, and quickly wrote a talisman letter and sent it to Boiling Spring Valley.
However, Zhou Yingze had no idea that he was waiting hard for a reply from the Hua family.
Someone from the Hua family has come to Hongyangzhou a long time ago, and he is a super heavyweight.
Over the Boiling Spring Valley, above thousands of miles of clouds, two Jindan masters stepped into the sky, ignoring the biting wind, and faced each other a mile apart.
"Zhou Laoxi, it seems that a disaster is about to happen, what's the use of hiding it? Hand over the dragon ball, and my Hua family will definitely help your Zhou family get through this disaster!"
The man who spoke was tall and mighty, with a pair of thick eyebrows that stood upright, eyes like copper bells, and the corners of his mouth were pulled down, giving him a naturally angry look. What was even more shocking was that there was a golden flame burning on this man's head.
The blazing flames spread out, looking like a ball of fluttering golden lion hair from a distance.
This person's name is Hua Xinyan. He is one of the three golden elixir ancestors of the Hua family and a fierce man in the late golden elixir stage.
Zhou Xilai asked in a confused tone: "Brother Hua, what do you mean by this? Where did I get the dragon ball in my hand?"
Zhou Laozu was now over 700 years old. His body was decayed and as thin as firewood. The broad red robe covering his body looked like a monkey wearing a sack, which was very ridiculous.
However, just looking at his face, his features and appearance were like those of a young man, his skin was fair and rosy, and as tender as a baby.
Hua Xinyan smiled brightly, "Haha! Come and take a look at this."
As he spoke, a true shadow ball flew out of his hand and quickly fell into Zhou Xilai's hand.
Zhou Xilai's heart tightened as his spiritual consciousness penetrated into the true shadow ball. There was an image of Zhou Zhongyu picking up the dragon ball inside.
After watching it, Zhou Xilai laughed and said, "You don't really believe it! You have to know that sometimes images can be faked."
Hua Xinyan sneered and said: "I didn't really believe it at first, but seeing how hard the Mo family went to deal with your Zhou family! I can't believe it even if I don't believe it."
Speaking of this, the golden flames on Hua Xinyan's head instantly expanded a hundred times, forming a large sea of fire. In the depths of the sea of fire, a three-foot-tall illusory image of an angry-eyed King Ming vaguely appeared, with six arms and three heads.
"Stop talking nonsense, hand over the dragon ball, and I will spare your life!"
Zhou Xilai was startled and shouted quickly: "Brother Hua, calm down. If you take action, we will both suffer losses. In the end, others will take advantage of us."
While speaking, Zhou Xilai flicked his right hand, and a red flame as thick as a child's arm shot out from his palm a hundred feet away and hit an ordinary cloud.
suddenly,
The clouds suddenly exploded into a large sheet of red flames, and a figure quickly appeared in the red flames.
In an instant, a domineering green-faced old man wearing a dragon robe and a twelve-color crown on his head waved away the red flames and walked out of the fire step by step until he came across the two golden elixir masters.
Stop.
When she saw the person coming, Hua Xinyan's face changed drastically and she said in shock: "Don't ask! Aren't you dead?"
It was rumored that Holy Emperor Mo Wenwen, who had just died of serious injuries, not only survived, but actually appeared here.
This not only shocked Hua Xinyan, but also made Zhou Xilai's expression change.
Zhou Xilai was not surprised because Mo Wendao faked his death, but was shocked by this man's majestic and powerful energy.
Mo Wenwen's previous cultivation was only foundation building, but the man who appeared here had an astonishing aura that was not inferior to the two of them.
Zhou Xilai even vaguely felt that there was a more powerful aura hidden in Mo Daodao's body, which seemed to be... Nascent Soul mana!
