Chen Xun's figure reappeared on Sky Island, her skirt stained with blood.
She looked melancholy and lowered her eyes.
Can the ending really be changed this time?
…
Guiyuan Continent.
Pingze Western Region, Nanxiao Kingdom.
The Lingyan Forest at the border was almost covered by black water.
Many teams gathered here to deal with these black waters.
It’s just that these black waters are much stronger than them.
They were no match for the black water, and instead their consciousness was invaded by the black water, turning them into black water monsters.
“Help! Help me!…Ahhh…”
"don't want--"
Screams continued to ring out!
"When will the reinforcements arrive? We can't withstand the black water on our own!" someone shouted.
"Master Shen, quickly summon Fei Tianpeng! Take us away from here!"
Everyone's eyes turned to the head of the Shen family, the foremost summoning family in Nanxiao Nation. He stood there, his figure slightly hunched, his hair almost completely white, his face covered in deep wrinkles, and he looked very old. His face was as pale as paper, with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, and he looked extremely disheveled.
Beside the head of the Shen family, there were two huge strange beasts engaged in a fierce battle with the black water.
They used their huge bodies and powerful strength to barely resist the erosion of the black water and built a line of defense for the head of the Shen family.
When Patriarch Shen heard someone ask him to summon Fei Tianpeng to take everyone away, his face instantly became extremely gloomy.
He widened his eyes and said in an almost harsh tone, "No, you can't leave here yet!"
His voice seemed particularly loud in the chaotic scene, as if carrying an unquestionable majesty.
He then took a deep breath and continued, "If the Black Water isn't extinguished, it will surely implicate those innocent people! Nanxiao Country is the closest. If we just leave like this, Nanxiao Country will surely suffer a devastating disaster!"
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. They knew that what Patriarch Shen said was true. Once the Nanxiao Kingdom fell, countless lives would be destroyed.
The head of the Shen family looked gloomy.
For the Shen family that summoned them, Nanxiao Country is their foundation.
If the Nanxiao Kingdom is destroyed, their Shen family will lose their foothold and will never recover.
Of course, Patriarch Shen and his clansmen could also choose to leave Nanxiao Country and settle elsewhere.
But if they do that, they will become rootless, having a hard time surviving in an unfamiliar environment, and may even be rejected and bullied by the locals.
The Shen family members had complicated expressions after hearing what their patriarch said.
"careful--"
Countless black water balls attacked the practitioners present.
But in just a few moments, more than a dozen people were killed and turned into pools of blood.
Seeing this, many practitioners turned pale. Finally, they could not bear the intense fear and turned around and ran away, becoming deserters.
But these black waters seemed to have consciousness. The faster the practitioners escaped, the faster they killed.
“Ahhh…”
The shrill screams never stopped.
Many disciples of the Shen family also died because of this!
"Master, let's go!" The elders of the Shen family urged solemnly, "As long as we are still alive, we still have a chance to start over!"
When Patriarch Shen heard this, his face turned even darker.
Before he could open his mouth to rebuke him, an elder said in intolerable words: "Master, every decision you have made over the years has put our Shen family in dire straits!"
The head of the Shen family's body trembled violently. He widened his eyes and looked at the elder who was speaking in disbelief.
"If you weren't so partial to Shen Xue, how could Shen Yan sever ties with our Shen family?" The elder continued, his tone becoming increasingly harsh. "If your partiality for Shen Xue wasn't extreme, how could Young Master Tian Hao not come back? And, has Shen Huai ever come back? Not at all!"
The elder's questions were like a barrage of questions, leaving the head of the Shen family completely unable to cope.
His face turned pale and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Master, I really don't know what's wrong with your brain. How could you be so stupid?" Another elder joined in the accusation. "No, maybe it's not stupidity, but you're just too self-righteous! You rely on your status, position, and seniority to act recklessly, completely disregarding the interests and reputation of our Shen family!"
"If you hadn't been so partial to Shen Xue, and hadn't let Shen Yan feel disappointed for Shen Xue, our Shen family would have been at its peak thanks to Shen Yan!"
"Shut up! Shut up!" The head of the Shen family shouted angrily.
His face turned livid as he retorted, "It was Chen Yan who was unkind and unjust. She deceived her father and brother into not returning to the Shen family. What does it have to do with me? I am her grandfather. What's wrong with being strict with her? She was born stupid and foolish. How much shame has she brought to our Shen family? Now that you see her rise to prominence, you turn around and scold the head of the family! All the years she has been in the Shen family, how you treated her has been nothing but mediocre or even extremely bad!"
The two elders of the Shen family who had just spoken looked extremely ugly when they heard this.
When the Shen family members saw this, they also felt resentful.
Ever since Chen Yan completely severed ties with the Shen family, the entire Shen family seemed to have lost all its luck and fortune, and it collapsed again and again.
The tribesmen were scheming against each other and fighting for power and profit.
The two elders who spoke just now also wanted to take advantage of the situation to remove Patriarch Shen from his position as Patriarch.
At this moment, the cultivators present saw the Shen family members fighting among themselves and shook their heads in their hearts.
