Chapter 186 Gongshi Feifei Holds a High Position…
Gong Shi Feifei, holding a high position, naturally knew more inside information.
No matter how good the initial intentions of the Heaven and Earth Bureau were, and how much it was for the sake of all living beings, after so many years, with the growth and expansion of the Heavenly and Earthly families, it has to become a representation of their existence.
The law of the jungle prevails, and the survival of the fittest remains true, especially now that monsters are becoming increasingly rampant.
Moreover, he has a trump card up his sleeve.
There is an even greater force behind him.
He had no fear and killed the people in front of him! The crisis for the Gongshi clan was immediately resolved!
Not doing it himself was his last act of mercy.
Xie Jiaoyue, who was always flamboyant, seemed to be terrified at this moment, standing still and motionless, as if she had given up even the most basic resistance.
Gong Shi Feifei was not surprised at all. He had roughly figured out how Xie Jiaoyue had resolved the previous crisis, but those were all minor tricks. In the face of an absolute and overwhelming difference in strength, small tricks and methods were nothing more than gimmicks and could not play any role.
It's better to offer one's neck for execution; at least one can retain a moment of dignity.
Gongshi Feifei admired Xie Jiaoyue, but also felt sorry for her. With such talent and physique, if he could use her, well, maybe he could even break through his own limitations.
He showed Xie Jiaoyue the utmost respect, took out his favorite and sharpest sword, and intended to give Xie Jiaoyue a swift and decisive death.
It won't hurt too much.
He was truly a man of great tenderness and compassion, both towards his daughter and her close friends.
"Gongshi Chuo! This is how you rescue people after I've sent you here!"
A furious roar came from behind.
Not feeling particularly nervous, Gongshi Feifei subconsciously turned around and saw a figure in black riding the wind, looking like a wandering demon under the moonlight.
He is a lackey of the Xie family, a mere shell of a Heavenly-level family. He doesn't even have his own name and has been known as Black-Clad Xie for many years.
"What a lunatic! They can't even find a clan leader, and they've been guarding that wretched place for so many years. Anyone who dares to say a bad word about the Xie family will get a beating from this black devil."
Gong Shichuo looked down on Xie in black. This man had the lowest cultivation level and the least presence among the representatives of the four great families, so he had nothing to fear.
Without the slightest hesitation, Gong Shichuo continued his attack on Xie Jiaoyue.
If Xie Jiaoyue is killed, would Xie Jiaoyue in black really make him pay with his life?
impossible.
A jade pendant on Xie Jiaoyue's body was glowing.
A thought flashed through Gong Shichuo's mind: Could it be that the Xie clan of the Southwest Region and the Xie clan of the Buzhou Immortal Realm are from the same family?
Impossible. If that were true, the Xie clan in the Southwest Region wouldn't be so insignificant.
But the jade pendant continued to shine, and the crisp cracking sound was still clearly audible amidst the whistling of the longsword. When the sound reached its maximum, the intense light blinded Gongshi Feifei.
The next moment, a dark figure replaced the light and appeared between Xie Jiaoyue and Gongshi Feifei.
At the same time, a crimson golden crow leaped out from the horizon, and as the sky brightened, its light illuminated the world.
The water curtain lit up at the same time, and many people who had stayed up all night and had been waiting in front of the water curtain saw the chaotic scene immediately.
I don't quite understand, but it seems like there are a lot of important people there.
Those with a little knowledge recognized that to use a family nameplate to perform a teleportation technique, one must belong to the same family, either by blood or as a registered retainer.
This beautiful fairy seems to be from the remote southwestern region. I never expected that she would have relatives in the Buzhou Immortal Realm.
This relative looked unfamiliar; he was dressed in all black and I had never seen him before.
The fat man opposite me looked familiar; wasn't that Gongshi Feifei, the patriarch of the Gongshi clan?
Why is Gongshi Feifei at the training grounds? Could it be that the monsters have rioted?
It doesn't really look like it.
How strange!
Gongshi Feifei didn't notice the change in the sky immediately. He didn't dare to confront Xie in black directly. When Xie in black blocked Xie Jiaoyue's way, he abruptly pulled back his sword, causing the spiritual energy to fluctuate and him to stagger.
When he noticed that the water curtain had started working again, he didn't have the authority to turn it off directly. So he waved his long sleeves, and an invisible barrier opened up to block out the sound.
The barrier lasted only a few breaths before it cracked and shattered.
Chief Baili said in a calm tone, "Why is there still a barrier? Let's break it down."
Gong Shifei nearly vomited blood.
Fine, you have higher cultivation levels, you're all high and mighty, so you're just bullying him, right?
He just didn't use his full strength. If he had gone all out, at least one of these clan leaders would have died, absolutely!
The three clan leaders arrived late and looked at each other in bewilderment at the scene before them.
"Gong Shi Fei Fei, you want to kill them."
Although Chief Wan and Chief Baili didn't know exactly what Gongshi had done, they knew a bit of gossip, so while they were amazed, they weren't too surprised.
Because of his foul mouth, the clan chief was always offending people and had the fewest informants, so he knew nothing. At this moment, he rarely showed a clear look in his eyes: "If you have nothing better to do than kill magical beasts, are you out of your mind? Instead, you're messing around with young girls."
As he spoke, he pinned down the remaining disciples of Gongshi Feifei one by one, leaving Gongshi Chuo, Gongshi Yue, and Pianxian alive, their faces covered in blood.
He clicked his tongue in disdain and moved the three people behind him through the air, as if afraid of getting his clothes dirty.
Although Gongshi Feifei sheathed his sword, he remained standing in the same spot, maintaining a tense stance.
Give them to me.
The clan chief asked incredulously, "What? Did your new son-in-law cast a spell on you? You suddenly went mad?"
It was one thing if they hadn't come, but now that they're all here, how could we allow Gongshi Feifei to kill people in broad daylight?
The authority of the Heaven and Earth Bureau and the reputation of the Heavenly-level aristocratic families would not allow them to act in this way.
It is said that all the disciples of the Gongshi clan gathered here, but Gongshi Feifei's new son-in-law did not come.
It's quite strange; that person is usually very obsequious, but at such a bizarre moment, they've stopped being a sycophant.
Gongshi Feifei repeated, "Give them to me, and you won't want to break ties with the Gongshi clan, right?"
He was extremely grateful that he had already silenced several people, turning Xie Jiaoyue and the others into silent quails; otherwise, he wouldn't know how to salvage the situation now.
Now, he still has a chance.
We must fight.
He glanced discreetly at the three clan leaders beside him. If he were to expose the secrets of the Gongshi clan now, he was not sure that one of them would protect him and the Gongshi clan.
Whether it's using forbidden techniques of the furnace for cultivation or the secret methods given by that great man, neither will be tolerated. Once discovered, not a single person in the entire clan involved in this matter will survive; they will be hunted down to death by the Heavenly and Earthly Division.
The latter is even more dangerous than the former.
He absolutely cannot be discovered, or he will definitely die.
Gongshi Feifei said in a very solemn tone: "I know the location of the three broken seals, and I also know the secret method to repair the seals. It requires the physical body of a high-level cultivator to protect them. If you hand them over to the Gongshi clan, I can swear that I will not harm their lives, and the Gongshi clan will be responsible for these seals for the next hundred years."
This means that for at least a century, several high-level cultivators of the Gongshi clan will be unable to compete for other resources, inevitably slowing down the clan's development and reducing its competitiveness among aristocratic families.
Basically, it's equivalent to giving up on advancing to a Heavenly-level family within the next hundred years.
The cost was so high that it made people start to have doubts.
The clan leader of the Jue clan sneered: "Not harming their lives? In this fight to the death, you mean not harming their lives? You mean digging out their dantian, even destroying their divine consciousness, and then leaving them hanging on by a thread in a daze?"
Chief Wan continued, "Gongshi Feifei, do you know that protecting the seal is the mission of the clan? If you know that the seal is damaged, you should not hide it, let alone use it as a bargaining chip to threaten others."
Gongshi Feifei refused to answer, making it clear that he would never speak unless given the answer.
After a brief standoff, he couldn't hold back any longer and spoke first: "Two of these people are members of my Gongshi clan. They violated clan rules and should be dealt with by me. As for Xie Jiaoyue, her mother is a disciple of the Gongshi clan, and she herself has repeatedly seduced members of the Gongshi clan, causing chaos and confusion. As the head of the Gongshi clan, I should naturally handle this matter impartially."
Gongshi Feifei continued, "They are just a few insignificant disciples. What's wrong with handing them over to me? In return, they would be worth it for the Gongshi clan to work hard for us for several years."
This is an unpleasant statement, but it is also a view that many people agree with and regard as truth.
The cultivation world is so dangerous that those with high cultivation levels, combat abilities, and the ability to fight for the safety of the cultivation world are even more noble.
The cultivation world is so realistic that those with good family backgrounds and superior origins are also considered more noble than ordinary people.
There is inherent inequality among cultivators. Between Xie Jiaoyue and Gongshi Feifei, even a fool would know who to choose.
Moreover, since Gongshi Feifei has already made such a demand, what difference does it make if it means buying Xie Jiaoyue's life?
Although the Heavenly Court has established laws prohibiting the indiscriminate killing of innocent people, even the four great Heavenly Families have not been without moments of abandoning the lives of certain individuals over the years.
Many cultivators who had supported Xie Jiaoyue and placed bets on her couldn't bear to continue watching. What a pity, such a promising talent.
Gong Shi Feifei also felt that he was determined to succeed.
Clan Chief Wan, who was usually very talkative, hadn't said much since arriving today. But then he suddenly spoke up: "Although I admire Jiaoyue, we should still prioritize the safety of the cultivation world."
This means that Xie Jiaoyue is to be abandoned.
Xie, dressed in black, shifted his gaze from Gongshi Feifei to the Wan clan chief, still fuming with anger: "Old Wan, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Chief Wan said with a pained expression, "You think I want this, but... Xie Jiaoyue may have a promising future, but compared to the current crisis, she is ultimately just an unknown disciple in the Southwest Region. Even if she breaks her bracelet and leaves the training ground early, it will be difficult for her to get a good ranking in the regional competition. I'm afraid she will never have the chance to advance further in her life."
Xie, dressed in black, snorted coldly, his emotionless voice taking on a mechanical chill.
"An unknown junior disciple?"
Before Xie in black could utter another word, Xie Jiaoyue quickly handed over the amplifying magic device.
Xie, dressed in black, took the document and put it to his lips. He then used his spiritual energy to make his voice resound throughout the heavens and earth: "This is the new patriarch of the Xie clan in the Buzhou Immortal Realm. To kill her is to make an enemy of the entire Xie clan."
Xie, the newly appointed clan head.
The Xie family from Buzhou Immortal Realm?
Are you kidding me?
Xie Jiaoyue was shocked. Do you Heavenly-level aristocratic families choose your patriarchs so casually?
