Cultivation in the Family: Everyone is a villain

The first day of March in the year 1326 of the New Yu Calendar

Xingnan Fucheng

The streets are crowded with people, obviously many times more lively than before. Pedestrians wear different clothes. Although the black clothing is the most popular in Yongzhou, there are people wearing white, green, red, gold, and other colors.

, accounting for at least about 30%.

These people often wear weapons, their aura is different from ordinary people, and their eyes are obviously more alert and sharp than ordinary people. They are obviously foreign warriors. Without exception, these people, either alone or in groups, are all facing towards them.

Walk towards the center of the city.

"Why have so many warriors come to our city in the past two days?"

"Today is the first day of March, are you confused?"

"What happened on the first day of March? I just came back from Xiayuan Daocheng, what happened?"

"I just came back. No wonder I didn't know that last month, the Xiongyun Gang, Shen Clan, Hou Clan, and Pingtian Clan issued notices at the same time, preparing to establish the Hexi Alliance. Today, the four families are forming an alliance with the Xiongyun Clan at the helm. These foreign warriors

, they should all be here to watch the ceremony!”

"Hexi Alliance?"

"Hey, in the battle of Longxiangdu, the three families of the Shen family and the Hou family's Xiongyun gang united to defeat the Leiyin Temple. It was at the height of the sun, and now the Pingtianmen was brought in. The four families united, and from now on the two families in Xingnan and Hexi

I’m afraid it’s these four families that have the final say.”

"This is no nonsense. Previously, the three families had a total of nearly 400,000 troops. Now that Pingtianmen comes in, the entire Hexi Alliance is estimated to have at least 500,000 troops. Half a million troops, which is comparable to what the Rakshasa Holy Cult originally managed.

There are still many people at that time, and it is a definite fact that from now on these two provinces will belong to the Hexi Alliance and have the final say."

"That's not necessarily the case. It is said that the previous battle at Longxiangdu was because the Xiongyun Gang of the Hou family and the Shen family defeated Leiyin Temple with one heart and one mind. If you ask me, it was a three-party wrestling match with almost the same strength.

After settling down to fend off the enemy, now that Pingtianmen has entered and the four families are together, the situation is completely different.

Previously, there was an enemy like Leiyin Temple, and the situation was imminent. The three families had no choice but to cooperate. Now that Leiyin Temple has been driven away, there are no enemies on the east and west sides. The four families have formed the Hexi Alliance together. Let me ask you, who should be the leader of this alliance?

Who will be responsible?"

"It is said that in the battle of Longxiang Ferry, the head of the Hou family, Hou Yuxiao, the Thousand-faced Jade Man, could fight undefeated against the master of Wufa of Leiyin Temple. I think he should be the leader of the alliance!"

"If this is true, then of course it is the Head of the Hou Family. But the problem is that we have all heard about the Battle of Longxiangdu. Only the soldiers of the three families and the disciples of Leiyin Temple know the specific details. No one has come out to confirm that the Head of the Hou Family is related to

I understand the Dharma and preside over the undefeated battle. Is it true or false?"

"You mean, if it's false, the four families will fight for the position of alliance leader?"

"Of course we will fight. A country cannot be without a king, and a family cannot be without an owner. Since it is an alliance, they will definitely fight together. When the troops and horses under their command are mobilized, the defense arrangements of the four families will definitely be arranged by the alliance leader, and

Not to mention the actual power of this alliance leader, just the fact that it can increase the reputation is enough for the four families to grab. Whoever becomes the alliance leader will mean which one is the strongest among the four.

Right now, the small forces of independent cultivators in various places are looking for a way out!"

"Then today, there will be a lot of fun at the Xiongyun Gang's helmsman's side!"

"Of course there is, but those who can go in to watch the ceremony today are basically the mainstream forces in the surrounding area, as well as some people invited by each of the four families. We little people have gone, and I'm afraid someone will come out to drive us away before we even get close to the gate.

.”

"No wonder there are so many warriors here. According to what you said, each of the four families has their own agenda. Whether the Hexi Alliance can be established today is still a matter of debate. These people who came here probably have no good intentions."

"Not only do they have bad intentions, I think they are clearly here to cause trouble. If the four first-rate forces really successfully form an alliance, and with the support of Tongtian Hebo, in the future, the two prefectures of Xingnan and Hexi will really be in trouble.

If we don’t advance, we are as safe as a rock, so hurry up and disrupt the situation now. In my opinion, it is very difficult for this Hexi Alliance to succeed!"

………………

Although the discussions on the street are all public matters, they are still valuable to many people from other places. It is obvious that some pedestrians are pricking their ears, eavesdropping, or directly approaching to ask questions.

.

A pair of young men and women wearing white robes were walking along the crowd towards the center of the city. They were also listening to the discussions of the people around them with great interest. When they heard that someone was going to cause trouble today, the young man shook his head slightly and saw that the face of the girl beside him was obviously excited.

He stood up and suddenly looked bitter:

"Senior Sister Qing Ning, we are in the devil's realm now. We must not act recklessly. If we cause any trouble and cannot handle it, it will be dangerous!"

Mo Qingning turned around, the excitement on her face suddenly subsided, revealing a hint of helplessness, and said: "Qingyuan, why did master send us here this time?"

The little Taoist priest looked puzzled, but still replied: "We have been sent to find the fiancé of the eldest sister to talk about the Hou family's visit in August, to congratulate the establishment of the Hexi Alliance, and to send us the congratulatory gift of the Purple Qing Holy Sect.

When Master talked about these two things, weren't the young senior sister and I both present?"

"Yes, let me ask you, the Rakshasa Holy Sect has retreated from the lower Yuandao, and Master has asked us to represent the Ziqing Holy Sect to congratulate the establishment of the Hexi Alliance. So, is the Hexi area still considered the realm of the Demonic Dao?"

A trace of astonishment suddenly appeared on Qingyuan's face. He could understand what Mo Qingning meant, but he only regarded it as an excuse for the young senior sister to cause trouble, so he defended: "This gift from Master should be for the Hou family."

Face, after all, that Hou

The head of the family, Hou Yuxiao, is the fiancé of the eldest sister, and can also be regarded as the son-in-law of our Ziqing Holy Sect. In addition to the Hou family, this Hexi Alliance also has the Shen family, the Xiongyun Gang, and the Pingtianmen. Strictly speaking, this place is of course still considered the realm of the devil!

"

Having said this, he paused and continued to argue: "At the very least, only the four counties of Hexi Prefecture controlled by the Hou family are not considered demons, and the five counties of Xingnan Prefecture are definitely considered demons."

"Oh, you are so stupid. Didn't you hear what people around here just said? They are not optimistic about the Hexi Alliance. Some people even asserted that the alliance cannot be established, but Master has already asked us to send gifts in advance. Why do you think this is?

?”

Qingyuan's expression froze, and he immediately realized what the problem was.

Master Mo Xuzi's information channels must be better than theirs. Judging from the fact that Master directly asked them to send gifts, the Hexi Alliance will definitely be established. If this is the case, then this is completely contrary to the common perception of the outside world.

.

If you change the perspective of Master to the Purple Qing Holy Sect, it proves that the sect has already known about the Hexi Alliance before. If it is just for the sake of a Hou family, there is no need to send gifts in the name of the sect.

In the name of Mo Xuzi, the Hexi Alliance has nothing to do with him. After all, there is only one Hou family that has anything to do with him.

Mo Xuzi personally asked them to come and congratulate the establishment of the Hexi Alliance in the name of the Purple Qing Holy Sect, and also brought a congratulatory gift, which was of great significance.

Qingyuan's face condensed, and he thought for more than ten breaths before he raised his head, narrowed his eyes, looked at Mo Qingning, looked around again, and sent a message to her:

】

"Sister, you are saying that the Hou family may have the final say in this Hexi Alliance."

"Shh..."

Mo Qingning made a silent gesture and nodded slightly. There was more or less a hint of shock on her face, but at the same time, she was more excited.

"I started collecting information about the fiancé of my senior sister last year. It only took me just five years to go from being the head of a small family that was not popular in the county to now ruling an entire government. This person is already a rare person in the world.

In this battle of Longxiang Crossing, they defeated the army of Leiyin Temple and defended the two prefectures of Xingnan Prefecture in Hexi. Now they even actually control the two prefectures. Moreover, the Shen family, the Xiongyun Gang and the Pingtianmen who are about to join the Hexi Alliance

, the three first-class forces that are not weak are all likely to be controlled by the Hou family personally. Whether it is territory or strength, they are no longer inferior to the prefecture-level forces.

Senior sister’s fiancé is really not an easy person!”

Hearing her junior brother Qingyuan's sigh, Mo Qingning's eyes shone with a strange light. When Hou Yuxiao went to Lingyuan Mansion to propose marriage last year, she secretly followed her senior sister. She saw it with her own eyes and made her angry at that time.

Not light.

Although she didn't like King Wuwei's two sons, after all, they came with such a heavy betrothal gift, which showed their respect for the elder sister. Hou Yuxiao came here empty-handed, and shamelessly said that he didn't bring a betrothal gift, but...

In the end, the senior sister agreed to him...

Mo Qingning and her senior sister Zhao Qingxue grew up together and were doted on by their master Mo Xuzi. Their relationship was extremely deep. Although she could see the senior sister's affection for Hou Yuxiao, she did not want to see her beloved senior sister.

Be wronged.

Therefore, this time she volunteered to help Master with something, but she had no good intentions.

She had to think of a way to make Hou Yuxiao make a fool of himself.

But after arriving in Hexi, she discovered that the Hou family's situation was far beyond her imagination. The story of the Battle of Longxiangdu had already spread in Lingyuan Mansion, but in her opinion, most of it was false news spread through false rumors.

.

The combined armies of the three families defeated Leiyin Temple; Hou Yuxiao fought alone and was presided over by Wu Dharma, a peak expert in the Xuanyin Realm of Leiyin Temple; Fahai Fahai came forward, but they could not stop the coalition forces of the three Hou families...

Each of these pieces of news became more and more outrageous, and she knew that they were all false without even using her brain. Besides, Master Mo Xuzi also said that the reason for Hexi's victory in the Battle of Longxiangdu was ultimately because of Tongtian Hebo.

, and the thousands of powerful monsters under it.

As for other news, they are all based on suspicion, and three people can become a tiger.

Of course Hou Yuxiao has strength, talent, and can be called an outstanding person, but Mo Qingning absolutely does not believe that he has reached the peak of Xuanyin realm at this age. After all, senior sister Zhao Qingxue is already a peerless genius in her eyes.

Now she is only at the Yuan Dan level, and she herself is often praised by her master, but she is only a great master of the fourth level.

Hou Yuxiao is at the Yuan Dan realm at most.

Yin-Yang Holy Realm, impossible!

She could doubt Hou Yuxiao's strength, but she could not deny the strength of the Hou family in Hexi. The fastest way for her to start from Lingyuan Mansion was to cross the Tongtian River to Longxiang Ferry, and then pass through Longxiang and Wanyang.

They arrived at Hexi Fucheng and finally Xingnan Fucheng. When they crossed the river, they learned that the only boats that could sail on the Tongtian River were Hou's boats. She and her junior brother had already clearly felt Hou's influence.

Not to mention the subsequent journey to Hexi, from the city to the officialdom, it can be said that the influence of the Hou family has penetrated into all aspects of the four counties in Hexi, especially the military registration system, the law that treats warriors and common people differently, and the Hou family

With all kinds of novel management rules and regulations, Mo Qingning could clearly feel that the support for the Hou family from both warriors and common people in the four counties of Hexi was far greater than other places she had visited before.

She came here intent on teasing the eldest sister's fiancé, but all she heard along the way were Hou Yuxiao's legendary stories. Not only did this not dispel her desire for revenge, but it actually made her itchy with hatred and eager to embarrass Hou Yuxiao as soon as possible.

At this moment, the Hou family and three other families in the Xiongyun Gang have formed a blood alliance, and there are so many outside forces who want to cause trouble. Isn't this a rare opportunity?

Mo Qingning's eyes widened. After making up her mind, she pulled her junior brother Qingyuan beside her and walked quickly towards the chief helmsman of the Xiongyun Gang. As she walked, she couldn't help but smile. Obviously,

I'm holding something bad in my heart.

………………

Commander-in-Chief of the Xiongyun Gang

The square in front of the main hall has three floors inside and three outside. There are three to four thousand people surrounding it. A three-foot high platform stands proudly in the middle. There is no one on the high platform, but there are four small tables.

A small bowl was placed on each side, and there was a glass of sake in the bowl.

Directly south of the high platform, in addition to those who were gathered around to watch, there were four distinct groups, which were obviously positioned further forward than the others. Each of these four groups had about a hundred people, and the ones with the lowest cultivation levels were

If you have Gang Qi realm, regardless of your identity, the aura exuded by more than 400 people can make others stay away.

"Master Duan, it's almost noon, it's time to announce the start of the ceremony!"

Duan Hong, who was deep in thought on the far right, suddenly frowned when he heard Shen Guyun's words on the left. He didn't go up to the high platform immediately, but the suspicion in his eyes became more intense.

.

Duan Hong is now filled with one question.

How could the three families agree that he should be the leader of the alliance!

Pingtianmen's strength is certainly good. Compared with the other three families that had gone through the Longxiangdu battle, Pingtianmen had not had any big fights during this period. Relatively speaking, its strength must have been preserved the most. This is why he dared to mention it.

The confidence of this alliance leader.

But the problem is, since all three families agree, he feels a little conflicted.

Shen Gufan and Wan Renjue are dead. Even if the Shen family and the Xiongyun Gang are damaged, they are far from being afraid of Pingtianmen. As for the recently rumored miraculous Hou family, that is even less true.

Hou Yuxiao can spread such exaggerated news that he is the master of Wufa alone. Even if it is not to this level, his strength may not be lower than his own. The Hou family is at its peak right now.

Of course Duan Hong wants to be the leader of the Hexi Alliance!

However, it all went too smoothly.

The success made him feel that something was obviously wrong.

"Dad, the matter has come to this, and there is no point in doubting it anymore. Our more than 300,000 members have all moved to Jiuxian and Yuzhao counties, and Leiyin Temple has also entered Jianye Mansion. This Hexi Alliance must definitely want to

It is established. According to what I have inquired about in the past few days, the other three families are not monolithic. As long as I become the leader of the alliance and use means to divide the three families, I, Pingtianmen, can really control the alliance, and my power will be great..."

Duan Hong stretched out his hand slightly to tell his son Duan Yun to shut up. After only thinking for a moment, he raised his head, stomped his feet slightly, straightened his body upwards, and stood directly on the high platform. He turned back and looked at the people below, his expression slightly stern:

"Everyone is gathered here today. The purpose is self-evident. Thanks to Gang Leader Wan and the two heads of the Shen and Hou families, Duan is allowed to preside over this alliance ceremony. If there are any shortcomings, I hope you will forgive me!"

After some simple polite words, Duan Hong went straight to the topic:

"Without the protection of the Holy Religion, our land in the west of Hexi is afraid of more disasters in the future. In order to avoid the displacement of the people and the loss of life, our four families have formed an alliance here today. I invite you to come to be a witness. From now on, our four families will move forward together.

We are retreating, with no intention of external expansion, we only want stability in Hexi, and we also ask our neighbors to rest assured!"

"In the battle of Longxiangdu, the three families joined forces and defeated Leiyin Temple. Now they have brought in Pingtianmen. Wouldn't they be stronger? Such wolfish ambitions are so obvious. They even claim that they have no intention of external expansion. Haha, it's ridiculous.

………”

The discordant sound came immediately!

Hou Yuxiao, who had been sitting quietly in front of the Hou family, turned his head slightly and looked at the person who was speaking in the crowd, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
