Chapter 663: The inheritance of the Venerable!
"Zong Ze!"
Xiahou Tie looked at the scene in front of him, feeling indignant and extremely angry.
Zong Ze's current actions are completely intended to keep them here!
He wanted to try his best to make a clear distinction, but the death of Zong Ze's daughter Zong Yan was indeed caused by him and Ye Mu. For a moment, he didn't know how to respond. He just stared with anger, thinking about how to leave this place of trouble.
He couldn't say that it was Zong Yan who provoked them first and they had no choice but to kill him, right?
"Even if you roar to the sky today, you will not be able to leave until my daughter shows up!" Zong Ze looked at Xiahou Tie coldly, with murderous intent gradually rising in his body.
Fortunately, Taoist Zhang helped him cleanse his soul, otherwise he would have lost control and would have started killing Xiahou Tie.
"Since you openly challenge my Xiahou family, let's fight to the death!" Xiahou Tie is not easily frightened. If he bows his head now, the Xiahou family will lose all face.
He had the mid-grade artifact Luoyu Fentian in his hand, so he was confident that he could deal a fatal blow to Zong Ze.
However, if that happened, his men like Yan Jing would be surrounded and attacked by dozens of the other side, which was something he didn't want to see.
"Master Xiahou, our Zong family actually has no intention of opposing your Xiahou family."
At this time, Zong Ze's woman, Shangguan Qing, stepped over and said, "It's only because my daughter has disappeared that we have become suspicious of you. After all, you went up the mountain last night, which is when my daughter disappeared, right?"
"Just suspicion, and you're keeping us here? Where's the evidence?" Xiahou Tie said in a serious tone, "Everything depends on evidence, isn't it?"
He firmly believed that after they killed Zong Yan and the two tigers last night, they handled the matter thoroughly and no one would find out anything.
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Zong Ze pushed Shangguan Qing away and was only five meters away from Xiahou Tie. "Boy, I kept you here because I don't have any evidence. Otherwise, if the evidence came out, you would have gone to hell!"
"If you want to accuse someone, you can always find a pretext!"
Although Xiahou Tie had not yet thought of a proper way to leave, he still had to refute what needed to be refuted, otherwise the situation would become increasingly unfavorable to him.
“Second brother!”
At this moment, a burly man dressed as a member of the Blood Tiger Clan rushed over with a gloomy and uncertain expression.
"Zong Ying, have you found out?" Zong Ze saw his brother coming, his face looked very strange, and his heart skipped a beat.
"Second brother, hard work pays off. I have traveled all over Longhu Mountain and found a group of passing merchants. They assured me that they saw people fighting in the mountain stream last night!" Zong Ying said word by word.
"Did they see the faces of the people fighting clearly? What was the final result?" Zong Ze's eyes suddenly lit up, but his heart suddenly sank.
"That group of merchants vaguely saw the two sides fighting. One side was my niece Zong Yan, and the other side consisted of about a dozen people." Zong Ying nodded heavily, a bloodthirsty gleam in his eyes. "As for the final outcome, Zong Yan may have met with an unexpected disaster."
"What!"
“Zong Yan!!!”
The murderous energy in Zong Ze's body burst out instantly, and he raised his head and let out a long roar, shaking the nearby mountains and fields, and the echo was particularly eerie and terrifying.
"swallow……"
As a mother, Shangguan Qing's face was now covered with tears. In addition to heartache, there was also an extremely gloomy curse in her eyes.
"Second brother, second sister-in-law, that group of merchants will be here soon to help us identify them. If this group of people killed Zong Yan, I will skin them alive!" Zong Ying stared fiercely at Xiahou Tie and the others with his bloodthirsty eyes.
At this moment, Xiahou Tie felt panicked.
If they had really been spied on while they were fighting with Zong Yan last night, they would definitely have been recognized!
And by then, the seven of them will suffer unprecedented retaliation!
"Zong Ying, when will that team of merchants arrive? I can't wait any longer!" Zong Ze has been controlling his emotions. Thinking that his daughter might have met with an accident, his heart seemed to be bleeding!
"Second brother, that group of merchants were reluctant to leave their full carts of goods. Due to the fatigue of the long journey, they turned back tiredly, so they were a little slow. But don't worry, they will arrive in a quarter of an hour at most." Zong Ying responded quickly.
at the same time.
On the top of Longhu Mountain, under the rocky forest.
After Ye Mu spent half a day in the liquid spiritual power pool absorbing it freely, every part of his body was filled with abundant spiritual power, and he finally opened his eyes slowly.
"I never thought that there is such a spiritual power pool in the belly of Longhu Mountain. I really want to practice here for a long time!" Ye Mu cherishes it very much.
But now he can't continue to absorb it.
He also knew that if he wanted to improve his cultivation again, he could only break through the Nine-Turn Immortal Body to the sixth level first, so he still had to go to the Thunder and Lightning Abyss.
However, although his cultivation level cannot be improved for the time being, he has accumulated enough spiritual power in his dantian. As long as the opportunity comes, everything will come to fruition!
"If I could put this liquid spiritual power into my Coiling Dragon Ring..."
Ye Mu suddenly had this idea and immediately began to try to pour liquid spiritual power into the Panlong Ring.
Unfortunately, not only was the Panlong Ring repelling him, but the liquid spiritual power could not be driven by his mind, so he never succeeded.
"Forget it. The most important thing right now is to leave here. I think I must find a breakthrough from those four venerable statues."
Ye Mu gave up the idea of collecting liquid spiritual power, immediately jumped onto the platform, and looked at the four venerable statues.
Now, in this seemingly top-secret space, only these four statues of the venerables have not been carefully studied by Ye Mu. He has a feeling that perhaps this is the breakthrough point!
"Laozi of Taoism... Confucius of Confucianism... Mohism... Han Fei of Legalism..."
Ye Mu stared at the four statues of the venerables, not knowing which one to start studying. However, he respected these four venerables very much, so he decided to pay his respects first, kowtow and kneel in worship, as a sign of his awe for his ancestors.
After kneeling three times and kowtowed nine times, Ye Mu just raised his head when something unexpected happened.
The four statues of the venerables in front of him seemed to suddenly come to life and trembled on the spot.
"Is this...sensing my piety?" Ye Mu suddenly realized.
Gradually, the positions of the four statues of the venerables began to move slowly in four directions, and after they were about one meter apart, they stopped moving.
"Is this a scroll?"
Ye Mu walked forward impatiently and saw a red scroll made of silk appear on the ground.
Ye Mu subconsciously picked up the scroll, on which were written seal characters with a brush: If you are destined to leave this place, you can choose one of the four venerables, accept the inheritance, and then you can leave at ease.
Accept the inheritance?
"To choose one, can I only accept the inheritance from one venerable?"
Ye Mu put away the scroll and looked at the four statues of the venerables in a state of sudden realization, a smile on his face. "What would happen if I chose all four venerables and accepted their inheritance?"
