Gradually, between the two stone mountains, monks with strong auras emerged one after another. Their lowest cultivation level was at the Fish-Dragon level.
Among them, there are mostly figures from the older generation, and of course there are also some children from the younger generation, all of whom are geniuses.
Half Saint Li Ku walked to the corpses of the blood slaves, inspected them, and his face turned very cold, saying: "They are all members of the Yu family in Wanxiang County. It seems that the undead blood clan has wiped out the Yu family.
"
The Yu family is one of the peripheral families of the Zhenyu Ancient Clan, and is also the first family in Wanxiang County.
First it was the Guo family from Fengnan County, then the Wu family from Beiyue County, the Pu family from Si County, and now it is finally the Yu family's turn from Wanxiang County.
Taken together, four peripheral families have been brutally exterminated.
Although when the Guo family was exterminated, the current patriarch of the Zhenyu Ancient Clan immediately ordered the major peripheral families to disperse their clansmen and lead their elite disciples back to the Pluto Sword Tomb.
However, some peripheral families that were far away did not react so quickly, and eventually suffered disaster.
The members of the Zhenyu Ancient Clan all showed angry expressions when they saw this scene in front of them.
"The Immortal Vampires have gone too far. We can't bear it any longer. We must take the initiative to attack and drive them out of Yuan Mansion."
The speaker was a woman in palace attire, about thirty years old, with thick black eyebrows, a wide jaw, and a green holy sword on her back. She exuded a sharp aura.
Another old man with a silver head shook his head repeatedly and said: "Everyone must calm down, the undead vampires just want to anger us and force us to go out to fight in order to consume our strength. The more at this time, the more we can't
chaos."
The woman in palace clothes snorted coldly: "Are we still afraid of them? In Yuan Mansion, let alone the immortal vampires, even the power of the imperial court is far inferior to us. Once a war breaks out, the immortal vampires will undoubtedly be defeated."
"That's right, there are already four peripheral families, and hundreds of thousands of clan members have suffered. We can't bear it any longer."? "We must fight to make the undead blood clan pay for their blood debt."? "Yuan Mansion is our prison for the ancient clan.
The territory cannot allow the Vampires to run wild. If we continue to toss, I don’t know how many clansmen will be sucked dry of their blood or become blood slaves.”
…
Most of the younger generation of monks support the fight, and their blood is boiling with rage.
However, there are also some people who do not support fighting against the undead vampires now and have many worries.
Zhang Ruochen finally figured out that the ancient Zhenyu clan should be divided into the warring faction and the conservative faction. When he first arrived, it was difficult for him to express his opinions, so he stood aside and remained silent.
Just when the two factions were quarreling fiercely, the young sword-wielder stared at the monstrous sword on Zhang Ruochen's back, and then moved his eyes to Zhang Ruochen and said: "You
Is this Zhang Ruochen, a disciple of Sword Master Xuanji?"
Zhang Ruochen raised his head, glanced at the sword holder, and frowned slightly.
Everyone is holding a sword, but the other person is standing three feet above the ground, staring down at him. Isn't it too rude?
Moreover, there were seniors from the Zhenyu Ancient Clan present, and all of them were standing on the ground, but he was the only one flying off the ground.
Out of politeness, Zhang Ruochen didn't care too much. He nodded lightly and said, "Exactly. What do you call me?"
Before the sword holder could speak, Li Min, who was standing next to Zhang Ruochen, said first: "He is the only disciple of Qingyu Sword Master, Xiang Zhengfeng. Last year, Qingyu Sword Master sat in Lingjuan.
Qiu, passed the Heaven-Destroying Sword to him, and Mr. Xiang is already a new generation of sword-wielder."
Li Min glanced at Xiang Zhengfeng secretly, and immediately her eyes collided with each other's, and she immediately lowered her head shyly.
Xiang Zhengfeng didn't have any other emotions at all. Just like his name, he looked upright.
He said in an accusing tone: "Since you are a disciple of the Xuanji Sword Master, and you brought the Monstrous Sword to the Hades Sword Tomb, it means that you will become a new generation of sword holders.
Take the responsibility of guarding the sword tomb."
He added: "Then, I want to ask you, why didn't you take action when the blood slaves attacked the Sword Tomb on a large scale just now?"
Xiang Zhengfeng's voice was so loud that all the Zhenyu Ancient Clan members fell silent. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the two young sword-holders.
Xiang Zhengfeng's voice awakened the members of the Zhenyu Ancient Clan, and they all stared at Zhang Ruochen with doubtful eyes.
Some of them were even whispering.
"Zhang Ruochen is an important criminal of the imperial court. Didn't the head of the family say that he would not be allowed to enter the Pluto Sword Tomb?"
"哓哓! He most likely took refuge in the Sword Tomb. I hope our Zhenyu Ancient Clan can protect him."
"It is said that Zhang Ruochen came to the Central Territory and caused great trouble. He not only killed four kings of the Ministry of War, but also destroyed Ziyong Pass. He and the Undead Vampire Clan have a common enemy, common interests, and mutual cooperation. It is also very possible for them to cooperate with each other.
Possible things."
"It's really interesting. As soon as Zhang Ruochen arrived, the blood slave came to kill him. If you say there is nothing fishy in it, I will be the first one not to believe it."
"The blood slaves attacked, but Zhang Ruochen did not draw his sword. Instead, he asked about the clan's formation. His purpose in coming to the Pluto Sword Tomb is probably not simple."
…
Zhang Ruochen's ears were fused with two divine seals. The semi-saint's voice transmission could not be hidden from his ears at all. Naturally, he could clearly hear the words of the Zhenyu Ancient Clan.
If it weren't for his master's instructions and the worry from "Pluto", Zhang Ruochen would really want to leave immediately.
After reaching the semi-saint realm, Zhang Ruochen's state of mind improved a lot, and he still seemed calm. He said: "They are just a group of blood slaves, not a real undead vampire. To deal with them, a sword-wielding man is needed?"
In fact, if Xiang Zhengfeng hadn't taken action first, Zhang Ruochen would have already used his sword to help Half Saint Li Ku kill the blood slaves.
However, facing Xiang Zhengfeng's questioning, Zhang Ruochen was not in the mood to explain so much.
Xiang Zhengfeng raised his voice and said: "Don't the blood slaves pose a threat to the Sword Tomb? Once they are allowed to break into the Shishan Sword Gate, how many of the Zhenyu Ancient Clan's lives will be threatened?"
After hearing Xiang Zhengfeng's words, the members of the Zhenyu Ancient Clan naturally felt the same way. They were all filled with indignation and felt a strong sense of rejection towards Zhang Ruochen.
At the same time, Xiang Zhengfeng put the safety of the Zhenyu Ancient Clan first, and received support and affirmation from everyone.
In their opinion, Xiang Zhengfeng is the real sword holder and the one who is really guarding the Pluto Sword Tomb.
As for Zhang Ruochen, it made them more and more dissatisfied. Zhang Ruochen said: "If so, the Zhenyu Ancient Clan can't even deal with a group of blood slaves, and they still want to fight against the undead blood clan?"
Originally, what Zhang Ruochen said was just a very realistic statement, but it angered all the members of the Zhenyu Ancient Clan.
Especially the monks from the main war sect were filled with righteous indignation, and waves of holy energy surged out from everyone's body.
"Zhang Ruochen, do you dare to insult the Zhenyu Ancient Clan?" Wang Ju pulled out an epee and inserted it into the ground. A powerful holy energy surged out from his palm and entered the epee, causing the epee to emit pitch black.
of brilliance.
Below the two stone mountains, in an instant, the sky and the earth became dark, and the cold wind howled.
Wang Ju is a half-saint of the Wang family, one of the three major families of the ancient Zhenyu clan. He has a high status in the clan and is also one of the main fighting factions.
The three major families are the "Wang Family" who majors in swordsmanship, the "Shen Family" who majors in formations, and the "Shi Family" who majors in runes.
Each of the three major families has one head.
In addition, a clan leader will be elected to take charge of the entire Zhenyuan ancient clan.
Zhang Ruochen glanced slightly in the direction of Xiang Zhengfeng and said: "I am not the one who insulted the Zhenyu Ancient Clan."
"Stop talking nonsense, if you have the guts, fight me. If you win, I will spare you. If you lose, it proves that you are not worthy of being a sword holder at all. You must keep the Monstrous Sword and get out immediately.
Sword Tomb." Wang Ju said forcefully.
Wang Ju's words naturally expressed the sentiments of all the ancient Zhenyu clan members present and received support from everyone.
"That's right, get out of the Sword Tomb if you don't have the ability. The Ancient Zhenjing Clan will not protect serious criminals who are wanted by the imperial court."
"People can leave, but they must leave the Taotian Sword behind."
…
…………
Zhang Ruochen knew very well that once he fought against Wang Ju, no matter whether he won or lost, he would not be able to stay in the Pluto Sword Tomb anymore and would definitely be expelled.
After all, it was only the first time for him to come to the Hades Sword Tomb. Once he defeated Wang Ju, even if he had unintentionally insulted the ancient Zhenyu clan, it would now become a real insult.
Under such circumstances, how could the Zhenyu Ancient Clan still have a place for him?
At this time, between two stone mountains, a man in yellow robe slowly walked out and said: "I think Zhang Ruochen is right at all. If you can't even deal with a group of blood slaves, how about fighting the undead vampires?"
If strong men fight, they will only die."
The man in yellow robe walked out calmly and slowly with his hands behind his back. Behind him, there were a group of old men, all wearing neat yellow robes.
Seeing the man in yellow robe, all the members of the Zhenyu Ancient Clan calmed down, retreated, and made way for a path.
Even the mighty Wang Ju lowered his head, bowed his hands and said, "I have met the young patriarch."
Seeing the man in yellow robe, Zhang Ruochen was slightly surprised, and thought to himself: "It's actually him." The man in yellow robe was named Shi Ren, and he had some friendship with Zhang Ruochen. When they were in the underworld, they experienced life and death together several times.
At that time, Shi Ren only told Zhang Ruochen that he went to the underworld to find the medicine to bring the dead back to life in order to save his wife. As for other things, he didn't say anything else.
Who would have thought that they would meet him at the Pluto Sword Tomb?
Shi Ren walked to the opposite side of Zhang Ruochen, showed a smile, and said: "Brother Zhang, we said goodbye to the Eastern Region. I didn't expect to see each other again so soon."?
