Hearing this, the faces of the dozen or so people present darkened. Some were indignant, some lamented, and some cursed angrily.
The young man continued: "A hundred years ago, in the ancient land of Qinghuang Mountains, my father was killed by Zhu Feng. At that time, what could our Xie family do?"
"Now, even if the Zhuangshan Clan goes too far, we still can't do anything!"
The young man sitting above is Xie Shushu of the Xie family in the Northern Dragon Region, and is now the head of the Xie family.
A hundred years ago.
Xie Kuangshi, the previous patriarch of the Xie family, died in the ancient land of Qinghuang Mountains.
Originally Xie Shushu had no intention of taking over as the head of the Xie family, but his second uncle Xie Lingjiong refused to be the head of the family and wanted to assist him. In desperation, Xie Shushu became the head of the Xie family.
One hundred years have passed.
Now Xie Shushu has also stepped into the realm of the Taoist Heavenly Lord, but he has only opened more than ten Taoist mansions.
The son inherited his father's legacy, and with Xie Lingjiong's support, no one criticized Xie Shushu, the clan leader.
The only criticism is that... this clan leader is too weak! His biological father was killed, but Xie Shushu never thought of revenge, he just tolerated the situation.
certainly.
The tribesmen also know it.
revenge?
That is almost impossible! Xie Kuangshi died at the hands of Zhu Feng, one of the five major veins of the Ten Thousand Demon Valley, Zhu Kuangshan Clan.
As one of the two bronze-level forces in the Northern Dragon Territory, the Xie family originally wanted to pay tribute to the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons.
This matter can only be broken into pieces and swallowed in the stomach.
But now... in the past hundred years, the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons has become more and more excessive. The people of the Zhugaoshan Clan have made troubles overtly and covertly several times, and have made up their minds to wipe out the Xie family.
Therefore, some voices of resistance began to appear within the clan.
Either way it's death.
It would be better to have a big fight and die a heroic death.
It's just that these voices have been suppressed by Xie Shushu.
A big fight?
Even with the efforts of the entire clan, I am afraid that the Ten Thousand Demon Valley Zhuangshan Clan will not be able to suffer any loss.
The gap between bronze-level forces and gold-level forces is huge.
Although the Zhugaoshan Clan is only one of the five major bloodlines in the Ten Thousand Demons Valley, the power of this lineage is completely unmatched by the Xie family! Such a gap makes people despair! In the main hall, one after another figures left.
Xie Shushu slumped in his seat with a bitter look on his face.
"Clan leader..." Below, Xie Lingjiong said: "Don't worry too much, everything will always turn around. Your intimate lover Shao Ning'er and her grandmother Shaofu still have some say in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons...
"When Xie Shushu heard this, he couldn't help but said bitterly: "If it hadn't been for Ning'er's dealings in the past hundred years, our Xie family would have been gone long ago."
Xie Lingjiong sighed.
As one of the two overlords of the Northern Dragon Territory, the Xie family controls the wind and rain in the Northern Dragon Territory.
But facing the overlord of the world, the Xie family is really powerless.
The weak eat the strong.
Since ancient times, this world has been under this law.
The existence at the top of the pyramid is always at a high level.
Xie Lingjiong also left.
Xie Shushu was alone, sitting on the patriarch's seat, smiling bitterly.
He didn't want to be the head of the family before, and he doesn't want to be any more now.
But when he really became the head of the family, he realized how difficult it was for his father to live for so many years.
Xie Shushu walked out of the main hall, and in the huge Xie Mansion, he arrived at the Xie Family Ancestral Hall after twists and turns.
The ancestral hall is large and empty.
Xie Shushu knelt down on the futon and looked at the memorial tablets arranged quietly. His eyes finally fell on his father's memorial tablet.
"Dad... the child is incompetent!"
Xie Shushu said in a sad voice: "Not only can't I avenge you, but now, maybe I can't even save the Xie family."
"For the past hundred years, those guys from the Zhugaoshan Clan have suppressed my Xie family everywhere."
"Fortunately, my son and Long Xuanmei still have some feelings for each other. Otherwise, the Long family in the south might have started a war against my Xie family."
In the past, the Xie family and the Long family were evenly matched.
But Xie Kuangshi died, the backbone of the Xie family was gone, and coupled with the suppression of the Zhu Kuangshan clan, the Long family had not taken action against the Xie family in the past hundred years, and it was really thanks to Long Xuanmei.
The Long family has discussed several times internally to annex the Xie family.
The Zhugaoshan Clan would definitely be happy to see this.
As the daughter of Long Xingjian, the head of the Dragon family, Long Xuanmei repeatedly begged her father not to take action, and then she delayed the move.
Just like the Northern Dragon Territory going south to the Southern Dragon Territory.
There are two major overlords in the Southern Dragon Territory.
Jin family.
Nanyang Gate.
The head of the Jin family, Jin Tianzong, died in the Qinghuang Mountains. In the past hundred years, the Nanyang Gate has squeezed the Jin family everywhere. The Long family also took action against the Southern Dragon Territory and captured many regional cities, as well as the Xiao family in the Zhonglong Territory.
The Nine Star Gate of the Lower Ancient Region... these parties almost completely divided the Jin family of the Southern Dragon Region.
Maybe not long after, the Xie family will become like the Jin family in the Southern Dragon Territory... When he thought of this, Xie Shushu burst into tears.
Although he looks mellow, he is a man after all, and he has a lot of passion in his heart.
Father was killed.
The family was bullied.
He can only endure it! If he doesn't have the strength to take revenge, if he can't bear it, he will die immediately.
It's unbearable, but there is no hope either.
"Big man, what does it look like to cry?"
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.
"It's my fault if I cry, it's none of your business... huh?"
who?"
Xie Shushu reacted immediately, his body stood still and his breath stirred.
"It's not bad. It took more than a hundred years, and now twelve Taoist mansions have been opened!"
A lazy voice sounded.
Outside the hall of the ancestral hall, a figure stepped forward.
Wearing a dark brocade gown and a black belt around his waist, he accentuated his slender and well-proportioned figure.
Her long black hair, tied high, looks quite chic.
Clear eyes with a hint of sparkle.
His eyebrows are like an ink painting, and his temples are like a knife cut. He is extremely handsome and graceful. Standing there, with the breeze blowing by, he gives people a feeling of spring breeze.
Such a handsome face, with a bit of free and easy, uninhibited, and a bit of gentle elegance, makes it difficult for people to feel bad at a glance.
"Mu... Muyun..." Xie Shushu looked at the figure in front of the hall door and couldn't help but be shaken for a moment.
"You...you're not dead..." Who else is it if it's not Mu Yun? "Why did I die?"
Mu Yun said with a smile: "We haven't seen each other for a hundred years, and you just want me to die?"
"No, of course not!"
Xie Shushu took three steps and two steps at a time, walked forward, and hugged Mu Yun tightly.
"Great, I always thought you were dead."
"The ancient land is broken. We all escaped. I didn't see any of you. I thought you didn't have time to escape and died inside!"
Mu Yun smiled and said, "Nothing."
After appeasing Xie Shushu, Mu Yun immediately stepped forward, lit incense and worshiped Xie Kuangshi.
In the Qinghuang Mountains, he met Xie Shushu. Although he felt that Xie Shushu was a sentimental person, after all, Xie Shushu had never let down the woman he liked.
Moreover, seeing Xie Shushu, Mu Yun sometimes couldn't help but think of Xie Qing.
Although he always helped Xie Shushu, Xie Kuangshi was still very grateful to him when he learned that he had saved his son.
He also has a good impression of Xie Kuangshi and Mu Yun.
Unexpectedly, he came out of the ancient land and inquired, and then he found out that Xie Kuangshi was dead, and now the head of the Xie family was Xie Shushu.
