These are the nine surnames of Zhu Rongtian. All people in Zhu Rongtian have one of these nine surnames, without exception.
According to legend, the ancestors of the nine surnames of Zhu Rong are the nine beings who followed Emperor Zhu Rong to create the world. They are the nine generals under Emperor Zhu Rong, and they are also the nine supreme beings under Emperor Zhu Rong.
Of course, the nine surnames have been passed down for countless thousands of years. Although they have the same surname, they may not be members of the same family. Those branches are no longer regarded as their own by the people of the family.
That's why the Dong family knights wantonly killed people named Dong in Jieqiao Village.
Today, there are still nine families in the nine surnames of Zhu Rong. They control the entire Zhu Rongtian and are equivalent to the rulers of Zhu Rongtian.
Zhu Rongtian and Xuan Mingtian are different.
Xuanmingtian is directly ruled by the Black Emperor of Xuanmingtian.
But Zhu Rongtian, Zhu Rongtian’s emperor is not a worldly person, and he almost never asks about Zhu Rongtian’s affairs.
Not only that, most people in Zhu Rongtian don’t know where he is or whether he is still there.
Even the heads of the nine families with the nine surnames of Zhu Rong have never come into contact with Zhu Rongtian.
Zhu Rongtian can be said to be a world different from the ordinary.
So in a sense, the nine surnames of Zhu Rong and the heads of the nine families are Zhu Rongtian, the nine people with the greatest strength.
This is something Zhou Shu only found out after he had a dream about the head of the Dong family.
It was only after he learned about this that he realized how much of a sheep he had become due to a strange combination of circumstances.
If the head of the Dong family hadn't been injured by Wu Gang before, and he tried to attack Zhou Shu with the Emperor's Sword, he was unexpectedly attacked by the Emperor's Sword.
Under normal circumstances, even during Zhou Shu's heyday, it was not an easy task to win over the head of the Dong family.
And if it was Zhou Shu, the head of the Dong family who activated the Dong family's formation, it would be impossible to kill him, let alone replace him.
Although the ever-changing supernatural powers are wonderful, if the head of the Dong family does not die, even if Zhou Shu changes into the head of the Dong family, it will be easily exposed.
In this situation, Zhou Shu's luck was so bad that he immediately became one of the nine most powerful people in Zhu Rongtian.
Because of this, he can do something so simple in Zhu Rongtian.
Including he asked Dong Tailai to send out invitations and invite eight other families to come to the Dong family for a gathering.
……
"Invitation from the Dong family, what do they want to do?"
In a place in Zhu Rongtian, a majestic middle-aged man, holding an invitation in his hand, frowned slightly, "Is it because the Dong family is declining and they want to increase their presence?"
"The nine surnames of Zhu Rong are the same. Although the Dong family has declined, this face must still be given to him."
"I have nothing to do recently, so I went to Dong's house to see what they wanted to do."
After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he raised his voice and said, "Here, prepare your car to go to Dong's house."
A response came from outside the main hall.
Then countless people got busy.
This scene also happened in several other places in Zhu Rongtian.
The family heads of the nine surnames of Zhu Rong, in the era when emperors were not born, they were the supreme heaven.
When they travel, their formations are larger than those of human emperors.
Although the nine surnames of Zhu Rong are similar, they still had some thoughts of fighting with each other.
Even powerful warriors have vanity.
No one can see that his own formation is smaller than others.
……
In a place in Zhu Rongtian, an unremarkable figure stood among the crowd, watching a fleet of vehicles flying past as far as the eye could see, with a strange look on his face.
In his heart, he didn't have any feeling that a man should be like this, only a feeling of watching the banter of the nouveau riche.
"Prince Zhou is going to do something big."
That man was the incarnation of Mu Zhixing. He muttered to himself, "It's so irritating that people are so different from each other. I even thought about robbing people everywhere, but it turned out that they were just sitting there, and then these fools...
I delivered it to my door myself."
"You're so stupid. You guys just showed up at your door like this. It would be weird if Zhou didn't trick you down to your underwear!"
Mu Zhixing's eyes flashed with light, "These family heads have left the family, doesn't that mean they are empty inside? If at this time, I steal the Jiu family's artifact... Bah, how can it be stealing?"
"No, Zhou Shu can't think of things I can think of?"
"I cheated him in Guanghan Palace before, and he still holds a grudge. If I get rid of him this time and take the things and run away, it will really be a big grudge."
Mu Zhixing thought to himself, "And with his style, I'm afraid he will be prepared in advance. Maybe I will steal the chicken but lose the rice, and then it will be in vain. That will be unhappy." "Although Zhou Shu is very annoying, he is quite particular. If you cooperate with him, you won't suffer under normal circumstances. He is willing to give him the freedom method, let alone a few artifacts. He is such a conceited person.
, he can forge innate magic weapons, but he is afraid that other magic weapons will not be favored by him."
After thinking about it, Mu Zhixing still felt that he would cooperate with Zhou Shu honestly and not make any extravagant moves.
"Oh, it's such a hard life. I still have to find materials to build weapons for Zhou all over the world. Mu Zhixing, Mu Zhixing, bear the humiliation and bear the burden."
Mu Zhixing muttered, ducked into the crowd, and continued to look for materials for his soldiers.
He thought about gathering a batch of materials for making soldiers as soon as possible, and then rushed back to Dong's house to watch the excitement.
Mu Zhixing is full of interest in how the eight biggest fools of the Dong family were deceived.
……
Dongjiabao, inside the Dong family’s base camp.
Cao Yue is directing the Dong family disciples to arrange the venue.
Dong Tailai was by his side.
"Little brother, what exactly is the master planning to do?"
Dong Tailai asked in a gentle manner, "Our Dong family has little money these days, so such a big battle..."
"Great Elder, do you want our Dong family to be embarrassed in front of the other eight families?"
Cao Yuedao.
"Of course not, it's just that we——"
Dong Tailai's expression was tangled. He wanted to say that the Dong family really had no money in their accounts, so they would arrange such a large venue again...
Sighing in his heart, Dong Tailai secretly decided that he would firmly support the family head's decision. If the money in the family account was not enough, then he would subsidize some.
"Great Elder, don't worry, everything is within the master's expectation."
Cao Yue said, "I will reveal some news to you, Great Elder, but you must not tell others."
Cao Yue looked around and said mysteriously, "Do you think all the weapons-making materials my family bought before were wasted? I tell you the truth, the head of the family has successfully cast the innate magic weapon!"
"This time the head of the family invited the other eight families to come here just to make this news public. Think about it, when the time comes, when the head of the family sells the innate magic weapons, how much will our Dong family cost? At that time, our Dong family will
Zhu Rongtian is the richest family!"
Cao Yue said.
Dong Tailai was stunned for a moment, then ecstatically asked, "Can the head of the family really forge an innate magic weapon?"
"Can I still lie to you? In a few days, you will be able to see it with your own eyes."
Cao Yue said.
"But why should we sell our innate magic weapons to them?"
Dong Tailai was a little puzzled.
"Stupid."
Cao Yue said, "The head of the family has mastered the art of forging innate magic weapons. How many innate magic weapons do we need? What to do with the excess innate magic weapons? Of course, sell them to other families and let them buy them at a high price!"
"There are too many innate divine weapons to use up?"
Dong Tailai swallowed, what kind of scene was that?
When he thought about it, he felt a little excited.
Can the Dong family be where they are today?
Are there too many innate weapons to use up?
Doesn’t that mean that the Dong family is the richest family in Zhu Rongtian?
No, it’s not just the richest family, the Dong family is Zhu Rongtian’s first family!
Dong Tailai's blood boiled with excitement, and Zhu Rongtian's blood boiled just thinking about it.
"Do it!"
Dong Tailai gritted his teeth and said, "I still have some private money, so spend it all. This venue must be grand! We must not lose the face of our first family in the world!"
Dong Tailai's face turned red and he waved his arms excitedly.
Cao Yue gave him a strange look, the best family in the world?
Who?
The Dong family?
Isn’t the Dong family the last of the nine surnames Zhu Rong?
No matter what, as long as Dong Tailai pays, anyway, the uncle’s instructions must not be discounted!
Dong Tailai spent all his personal money, and naturally spared no effort in supervising the construction of the venue.
Under his persistence, everyone in the Dong family worked day and night, and finally completed the construction of the venue ahead of schedule.
The entire venue covers an area of several miles, with a high platform each hundreds of feet long and wide, inlaid with white jade, and even the surrounding square is paved with fine bluestone.
Simple, but not simple, it looks expensive at first glance.
This surprised the head of the Peng family, one of the nine surnames of Zhu Rong, who was the first to arrive at the venue.
"Did the Dong family take the wrong medicine?"
The head of the Peng family looked at the specially built venue located outside Dongjiabao. Next to the venue, there were specially built houses for people who came to attend the meeting.
"Building a lot of construction outside Dongjiapu just for such a rally, but they have money and nowhere to spend it?"
The Peng family is also one of the lowest ranked families among the nine surnames of Zhu Rong. He asked himself that he was reluctant to do this.
It’s just a meeting, is there any need to go to such trouble?
Is there no room inside Dongjiabao?
"It turns out to be the head of the Peng family, but you came early."
While the head of the Peng family was observing the meeting place, Dong Tailai had already heard the news and came over.
"It's rare to receive an invitation from Brother Dong, so naturally I can't be late."
The head of the Peng family smiled slightly, "Brother Dong is not here?"
The Brother Dong that the head of the Peng family is talking about is naturally not Dong Tailai, but the head of the Dong family.
"The head of the family is still in retreat. He will definitely come out before the conference."
Dong Tailai smiled and said, "Master Peng, please come with me. Our Dong family has made arrangements for the residences of all the family heads."
"Brother Tailai, may I ask why Brother Dong came to us this time?"
The head of the Peng family nodded slightly, and as Dong Tailai stepped forward, he smiled and asked.
"The head of the Peng family will know about it soon."
Dong Tailai said reservedly, "It's a good thing."
This is a good thing for the Dong family, but not necessarily for you.
Dong Tailai said secretly in his heart.
The other eight families may not be willing to watch the Dong family become stronger.
Especially the Peng family, which is similar to the Dong family.
The Peng family had undergone great changes at that time, and even the inheritance was almost cut off. After that great change, the Peng family plummeted, from being the most powerful of the nine families to being one of the last.
Speaking of which, the current Peng family and the Dong family can be regarded as close brothers, and their strength is almost as different.
There are even rumors from the outside world that the Peng family has even lost its artifacts.
It's just that no one has confirmed whether this is true or not.
"Soon, my Dong family will leave your Peng family far behind."
Dong Tailai thought.
"A good thing?"
The head of the Peng family showed a thoughtful look on his face. He looked at the splendid residence in front of him with a puzzled expression. Is the Dong family, the poorest among the nine surnames, rich?
It will cost a lot of money to build this place.
Many thoughts flashed through his mind, but considering that Dong Tailai might not tell him the truth, he simply didn't ask. Anyway, they were already here, and they would soon know what the Dong family was going to do.
After the head of the Peng family, in the next few days, the heads of other families with the ninth surname Zhu Rong also came one after another.
These family heads are usually bored, but when something happens rarely, they are still a little excited.
These heads of the family all have the same idea as the head of the Peng family, and they all want to see what the Dong family is doing.
……
Dongjiabao, the Dong family mansion, outside the courtyard where the head of the Dong family lives.
The courtyard door creaked open, and Zhou Shu stepped out.
"Uncle——"
Cao Yue went up to him and shouted softly.
"Have everything been arranged?"
Zhou Shu nodded with a calm expression.
"It's been arranged. People from the other eight families with the nine surnames Zhu Rong have already arrived, and all of them are the heads of the family."
Cao Yue whispered, taking out a pamphlet from his arms, "I have collected some information about other companies. You can take a look, uncle."
Zhou Shu nodded, took the booklet and put it into his arms. Although he didn't read it, he still expressed his appreciation for Cao Yue's seriousness. Although Cao Yue's qualifications are not superior, he is more diligent and conscientious in everything he does.
.
"Let's go, let's go meet the other eight families for a while."
Zhou Shu said, after this experience, Cao Yue has experienced big events. Even if he doesn't accept him as his disciple, he should be able to get along well in Zhu Rongtian.
After taking Cao Yue and Wu Gang out of the Dong family's mansion and walking towards the outside of the Dong family fort, Mu Zhixing appeared in front of Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu just glanced at him sideways and didn't take him too seriously. It's not surprising that Mu Zhixing did anything.
"Tsk! What a good trick."
Mu Zhixing followed Zhou Shu and said in wonder, "Gather these two idiots together so that they don't have to wander around. Prince Zhou is Prince Zhou, and he will be extraordinary once he makes a move."
"It's a pity that I don't know how to forge weapons. If I had known it, I would have learned a few skills in forging weapons."
Mu Zhixing had already guessed what Zhou Shu wanted to do, and it was precisely because he had guessed that he was even more envious.
"Prince Zhou, let me tell you, at least four of the other eight families have brought the Zhen clan's artifact with them..."
Mu Zhixing looked around furtively and saw that no one was paying attention, so he whispered, "I heard that if the nine artifacts of the nine surnames Zhu Rong are combined into one, great things will happen."
"Really? Didn't you go get information? What big thing will happen?"
Zhou Shu said calmly.
He had dreamed about the things Mu Zhixing, the head of the Dong family, knew. How could he not know?
Zhou Shu already knew all the secrets of the Dong family with the nine surnames of Zhu Rong.
Could the head of the Dong family not know those legends about Zhu Rongtian?
You know, the head of the Dong family is one of the most powerful people in Zhu Rongtian!
"Let me tell you, Prince Zhou, these nine artifacts of Zhu Rongtian have a great relationship with the legendary Netherworld."
Mu Zhixing God said mysteriously, "If you gather the nine artifacts, you can see the legendary underworld."
"The Underworld is a force under the command of the Ancient Heavenly Court, and it is extremely powerful..."
Mu Zhixing's eyes were bright, and when he spoke, his saliva almost flowed down.
"Only the dead go to the underworld. Are you tired of living?"
Zhou Shu said angrily.
"Don't you understand this? We are ordinary people? We are warriors! The Netherworld can imprison ordinary people, but it cannot imprison us."
Mu Zhixing said proudly, "What's more, how many years has passed since the ancient heaven was destroyed, and there are still people in the Netherworld? It is an ownerless treasure house!"
"Prince Zhou, although we have agreed that the wealth of the nine families will belong to you and the artifacts will belong to me, but I, Mu Zhixing, am a very particular person. If the nine artifacts are combined into one, we can really find the legendary Netherworld. When the time comes, I will divide
How about giving half of it to Prince Zhou, you are loyal enough."
Mu Zhixing said.
Zhou Shu rolled his eyes, are you afraid that if you go to the Netherworld by yourself, you may not be able to handle things?
These ruins of the ancient heaven are not something you can enter just by finding them.
Back then, didn’t you guard the gate and couldn’t enter the Guanghan Palace?
Netherworld Underworld, judging from its name, is much more domineering than Guanghan Palace.
"Let's talk about it then."
Zhou Shu said noncommittally that when he dreamed about the head of the Dong family, he learned some things that no outsider knew. Mu Zhixing's idea may not be realized.
It is no longer possible to collect all the nine artifacts of Zhu Rong's nine surnames.
"Mu Zhixing, you want to resurrect Lord Taiyin Star and find the Netherworld. What do you want to do?"
Zhou Shu glanced at Mu Zhixing and asked casually.
Mu Zhixing heyed twice but didn't answer.
Zhou Shu just asked casually, knowing that Mu Zhixing would not answer.
On the way down, Mu Zhixing became much quieter.
It wasn't until he saw the venue outside the Dong Family Fort that Mu Zhixing said, "Prince Zhou, you fooled these fools, do you need a sitter? How about we kill a family head, and then you turn me into him?"
, in this way, I can act as your support and help you warm up."
Mu Zhixing said with some excitement. Seeing how prosperous Zhou Shu was pretending to be the head of the Dong family, he also wanted to try it. This kind of thing of playing with the enemy in the palm of his hand was not too exciting to think about.
Ah.
"Which house do you want to take action on? Are you afraid of capsizing in the gutter?"
Zhou Shu said angrily, is it so easy to deal with the head of the ninth family named Zhu Rong?
If it weren't for a coincidence, he wouldn't even be able to kill the head of the Dong family. Mu Zhixing is just crazy.
