For a time, the whole Xueshahou camp was in a state of turmoil. It became riddled with holes in a short period of time and was on the verge of collapse.
The disappearance of the high-level immortal has made the two small families unstable. They are discussing whether to abandon their foundation and move to the other four regions.
These two families are not very big in the Xueshahou camp, and their relationship with the Zheng family is far away, so they shouldn't be so nervous.
But precisely because of their distant relationship, these two families felt a little unjust and helped the Blood Sand Hou to charge ahead with us, but when it came to eating meat and drinking soup, we had to suffer some losses.
However, there is no way to explain this to Chen Taizhong, as he is not a reasonable person.
When the Qiaoji Gate was destroyed, there were hundreds of thousands of people who suffered disaster inside and outside the gate, and their deaths were only because of an insignificant fairy maid.
Among hundreds of thousands of people, are there any who have been wronged? There must be! But is Chen Taizhong soft-hearted? No!
If all the disciples in the Qiao Weapon Sect deserve to die, not everyone in the clan may have a way to die. The reason is very simple. In order to take complete revenge, Master Chen planted nine mushrooms. Those unfortunate people only
It can be said that they deserved what happened.
Accidental injuries caused during revenge are not even counted as the grudge battles between the big guys in Blood Revenge. The little guys rashly get involved and deserve to die.
The government in the Fenghuang Realm also supports this understanding. There are too many noble people in the government, and it is common for others to accidentally hurt others.
Uncle Ying Wu, who had his whole family wiped out immortals, is a typical example. Uncle Ying Wu has never provoked Chen Taizhong. Even in the Netherworld, the place he was responsible for was far away from the area where Chen Taizhong was wreaking havoc.
It's just that he is a famous general under the command of the Blood Sand Marquis, and he is also a knight. If not kill him, who will be killed?
These two small families didn't dare to gamble. They discussed and planned to move, but it turned out that there was a secret agent of the Blood Sand Marquis in their clan, and the matter was not kept secret, and the Zheng family discovered it.
The furious Marquis sent someone over to reprimand them for their unseemly behavior and asked them to give reasons. Otherwise, you would still be considered members of the military when engaging in military law.
Chen Taizhong did not care about the army in his revenge. The two families were also frightened and begged, saying that we knew we were wrong.
However, the Xuesha Hou's military team was no joke. They directly killed one Heavenly Immortal and fifteen Spiritual Immortals. After killing the two families until only Youxian remained, they were all sent to the Netherworld to mine.
In order to stabilize people's hearts, this matter must be done. The Marquis has no compunction about this. At the critical moment, there is betrayal by the family. If I don't kill you, I will have to wait for others to kill me.
One of the families was formed by the former personal bodyguard of the Blood Sand Marquis. The bodyguard has died. His son is now the clan leader, and the Marquis is not merciful about this. He has killed too many people.
But before he died, the guard's son said something that reached his ears, which deeply touched him.
"We don't want to betray the Blood Sand Marquis. When Chen Taizhong comes to slaughter my family, I can fight to the death. However, let me ask...will the Marquis send reinforcements? Is our resistance meaningful?"
This is the tragedy of fringe vassals. They are small forces with extremely low risk resistance, but the superiors do not pay enough attention to them. They are destined to be cannon fodder, so they want to move to avoid disaster.
Xue Shahou is ruthless and ruthless. He is not a chicken soup teacher for the soul. He will not understand many philosophies of life from this. He is not merciless in the face of betrayal, but at the same time, he also understands clearly that the son of an old friend seems to have no choice.
Small forces have no choice, and small and medium-sized forces naturally have no choice, and then they will expand to the backbone forces.
And then... the Blood Sand Marquis Mansion, it is probably time to consider reducing the rank.
"Damn seven," he sighed heavily. Just because of a small profit, he offended a person like Chen Taizhong.
If there was a possibility of "rebirth" like in the movies on Earth, he would never tolerate the Seven Branches being so messy.
Either don't take action, or eliminate the root cause, even if you send out Jade Immortal to kill Youxian, you will definitely not fall into such a situation.
But what happened has already happened, and it is too late to regret it. Moreover, Chen Taizhong is not the only one he is worried about now. "It is very hateful that the royal family took the opportunity to take action. I, the Zheng family, do not have to go with Zuo Xiang, but..."
Has the royal family recruited the Zheng family?"
Of course, the royal family would not recruit the Zheng family. When Xueshahou was still a fairy soldier, he was already deeply marked by the left prime minister.
"There is still a chance to switch to the royal family at this moment," a middle-aged scribe beside him said softly, and he was also a Jade Immortal.
"Uncle, you don't know, it's really too late," Xue Shahou sighed softly.
His brother-in-law is fifty years younger than him and is technically a distant cousin.
However, my uncle's qualifications are astonishing. After he gained a certain status, he vigorously supported his clan members. Therefore, his current cultivation level is the second-level Jade Immortal, which is inferior to his fourth-level Jade Immortal, but he is a true member of the Zheng family.
The second Jade Immortal.
In the entire Zheng family, there are only these two real people, the others were recruited or acquired by force. Originally, there was a distant relative who was also a jade immortal, but he challenged Chen Taizhong in the Netherworld and was deprived of his cultivation.
"But the Left Opposition will not support us," the middle-aged scribe sighed. "While the strength at hand is not seriously damaged, it is better to defect to the royal family as soon as possible, even to the Mu Shou Envoy...it will be too late if we wait any longer."
The Mu Shou Envoy is a member of the meritorious camp and does not fully follow the royal family. This camp has declined greatly, but it is still a major force anyway. It is worse than the Zuoxiang camp that is in the limelight, but the centipede insect is dead but not stiff.
The most critical thing is that the Northern Territory government's lack of cooperation is what makes the Marquis Mansion so passive. The Northern Territory government is under the jurisdiction of the Northern Territory Shepherd Envoy, who has a say in the management of the roads, counties and towns below.
.
To seek refuge with the Shepherd? It’s useless. Xue Shahou’s face was expressionless, but he was sighing in his heart, “Do you think people will believe us if we are in urgent need of help?”
This is the key to his inability to change his camp. Normally, if he surrenders to him, whether it is a pastoral envoy or the royal family, he will definitely accept this force, but how much sincerity can he have if he agrees in an emergency?
The middle-aged scribe was startled for a moment, then nodded slightly, "That's right, they still have to worry, let's take Chen Taizhong's cause and effect... they might think that this is the leftist prime minister's plan to divert trouble away from the enemy."
Who says it's not the case? Xueshahou's face became darker and darker, "It's not that the Prime Minister Zuo doesn't want to support us. There are real people in the house who were sent here by the Prime Minister Zuo. I won't say who they are..."
After a pause, he spoke again in a difficult voice, "The Left Prime Minister is not giving up on me, but he still has to guard against the government's evil hands and cannot give us any more help."
"That's true," the middle-aged scribe nodded. He actually agreed with this statement. "The recent series of attacks clearly have the shadow of the government behind them. How could Chen Taizhong have the ability to clone himself?"
"It's not the government," Xue Shahou shook his head and replied decisively, but he didn't say the reason.
Not the government? The middle-aged scribe pondered for a moment, thinking that the Marquis was a well-informed person and must have learned some information from the government. However, this involved the left prime minister's secrets in the government, and he really couldn't ask any more questions.
So he asked another question, "Could it be that other forces are adding insult to injury?"
"There are times when we add insult to injury," Xueshahou replied expressionlessly, "but many of them are spontaneous. Our Zheng family has been prosperous for so many years, and we have to form conflicts with others."
What he said is the truth. The rise of a certain force will inevitably lead to various interest disputes with others. The so-called peaceful rise is pure nonsense. There are only so many resources. If you get more, others will have less.
.
Not to mention that the Xue Shahou was under the care of the Left Prime Minister, and the process of his rise was filled with all kinds of bloodshed.
The middle-aged scribe was silent for a long time, and then sighed again, "The most worrying thing is that the government has not yet taken action."
Xue Shahou's face turned even darker, and he sighed softly after a long time.
He has always shown himself to be tyrannical and iron-blooded. It is really difficult to see him sigh. However, it is obvious that his brother-in-law's words spoke to his heart, "Yes... the government has not taken action yet."
This was what he was most worried about. It should be noted that the fist retracted was much scarier than the fist punched out.
All this time, he had not paid much attention to Chen Taizhong, because he believed that whether the other party was a casual cultivator or a guest of the sect, he was the opposite of the government camp.
The other party wants to seek revenge, and the Left Prime Minister and the government are intimidated by this combination.
Even true immortals cannot withstand the joint suppression of several major forces. Let alone true immortals, even behemoths like Tianji Sect and Yangming Sect will collapse suddenly under the joint efforts of several major forces.
But when Chen Taizhong showed his power in the underworld and the government retreated, Xueshahou finally felt that something was not going well. It seemed that it was no longer what he had planned before.
Fortunately, now, instead of joining forces to suppress dissidents, the government is helping Chen Taizhong to suppress himself.
But he couldn't say anything yet, because the government... hadn't shown its real fangs yet.
At this moment, he couldn't help but sigh again, "These bastards in the government are indeed the most untrustworthy and have no face at all."
He didn't expect that others would also evaluate him in the same way. If the Marquis Mansion hadn't shamelessly snatched a Youxian's belongings, would things have developed to this point?
At this moment, an immortal walked in quickly from outside, with a look of joy on his face, "Earl Qi, there is news about Chen Taizhong. That guy was hit by the soul-twirling silk when he attacked the brothers in the world of blue blood!"
"Seriously?" Xue Shahou stood up immediately, extremely excited.
Soul-winding silk is refined from the last blood-stained silk thread spit out by ten-thousand-year-old ice silkworms. It is extremely rare. After being refined, it becomes a colorless and odorless liquid. It can be stimulated by special means and turn into gas to adhere to the soul.
, and then they dispersed after nine days.
This is an extremely clever tracking method. The refiner can use this to locate the opponent's whereabouts. Given the size of the Fenghuang Realm, there is no way to escape.
The most troublesome thing about Chen Taizhong is that the lonely ghost is unpredictable. If his whereabouts can be discovered, no matter how high his cultivation level is, he will not be able to withstand the killing of six real people, let alone the battle array of the Blood Sand Marquis.
