Time flies like an arrow.
Three years later.
In the Zheng family's territory, Zheng Wenxian, the head of the Zheng family, was pacing back and forth with an anxious look on his face. Several elders beside him also had a trace of worry on their faces.
After a while, an elder of the tribe asked:
"Patriarch, will the Chen family really send someone to help the family solve this matter?"
Hearing the tribesmen's question, Zheng Wenxian showed a hint of hesitation, but then he snorted coldly:
"The family has provided a lot of resources to the Chen family over the years. Now that the family is facing a crisis of survival, the Chen family should help the family overcome the difficulties out of both emotion and reason."
Having said that, Zheng Wenxian was still unsure. If the Chen family looked down on the family's reward this time and did not help, the family would have no choice.
Moreover, during these three years, the Chen family did not continue to expand outward, but instead became quiet. Even during the annual family tribute, the Chen family never sent anyone to check, and everything was decided by each clan themselves.
It's not just his Zheng family, I heard that it's the same with other families.
This also caused many families to have strange thoughts in their minds, wondering if something unexpected happened to the Chen family, otherwise why would they be indifferent to such a major event as the provision of resources from various clans?
Moreover, he heard that several families were secretly communicating with each other and seemed to want to test the waters.
However, this is not a problem that the Zheng family should consider now.
A month ago, some ferocious beasts suddenly appeared near the family. This was a good thing, and the family was even very happy, because these were one of the few resources that came to the door automatically, so the family would certainly not let them go.
But those ferocious beasts were extremely cunning. After each attack on the family members, they would quickly retreat. The family could not find their traces for a while, and many family members were injured or even killed by the claws of the ferocious beasts.
After realizing that these ferocious beasts were difficult to deal with, the family stopped underestimating them and began to prepare for the battle.
After the family's search, they soon found a place that was suspected to be the dwelling place of the ferocious beast, and then sent three elders from the innate realm to strangle it.
They thought they could capture them all in one fell swoop, but this trip put the family in danger. Two elders returned seriously injured, and one even died.
However, the elder of the family who died was at the late stage of the Innate Realm!
According to the information sent back by the two seriously injured elders, the cave was extremely complicated. After they entered, they were ambushed by several ferocious beasts. Even with the combined efforts of three people, it was difficult to deal with them. In the end, they were no match for the ferocious beasts. The elder in the late innate realm unfortunately died in order to cover their departure.
After learning that the elder of the clan had passed away, the family members were in a panic and dared not leave the clan for a while.
Zheng Wenxian was also horrified.
A ferocious beast that can kill all the late-stage Xiantian realm warriors in the clan, even if it is not a Qi-controlling realm beast, is not something that his Zheng family can deal with. Moreover, this ferocious beast seems to be targeting his Zheng family.
After sensing the crisis of genocide, Zheng Wenxian immediately sent his clansmen to the Chen family at Mass Grave Hill to seek help!
This is the scene that everyone is anxiously waiting for.
If no one from the Chen family came, the family might be in danger this time.
Just when Zheng Wenxian was worried, a report from a clan member came from outside:
"Chief, Chief, someone from the Chen family is coming!"
Hearing this, Zheng Wenxian showed joy on his face and asked quickly:
"How many people are here? Is there any elder Chen Tianyu from the Chen family among them?"
After the Iron Mine War three years ago, all the clans knew the name of the Qi Controlling Realm warrior of the Chen family. The current family crisis could only be solved by a warrior in the Qi Controlling Realm. He certainly hoped that the person who came was the Qi Controlling Realm warrior of the Chen family, so that the family crisis could be solved.
The tribesmen below shook their heads:
"It's not the elder of Chen Tianyu clan, and it seems that only one person from the Chen family came."
Zheng Wenxian's expression changed slightly when he heard this answer.
When the family asked the Chen family for help, they had already emphasized the danger the family was facing this time. Unexpectedly, the Chen family only sent one person, and it was not the clan elder Chen Tianyu!
Zheng Wenxian's face changed constantly, but after hesitating for a moment, he called several elders beside him, walked out of the family quickly, and went to greet them.
Perhaps this is just a scout sent by the Chen family to understand the specific situation of the family. After understanding the danger, I believe the Chen family will send strong family members to come.
Soon, several people arrived outside the family.
In the sight of several people, a huge blue wolf soon came into view.
Even though he knew that the Chen family raised a group of powerful blue wolves, Zheng Wenxian was still envious when he saw these beasts with his own eyes.
Moreover, the ferocious beast in front of him gave him a sense of danger. It seemed to be a ferocious beast in the innate realm?
This also gave Zheng Wenxian a little more confidence.
However, when Zheng Wenxian saw the young man on the back of the blue wolf, the confidence that had just emerged quickly disappeared.
Sure enough, he was not the elder of the Chen Tianyu clan, and this person looked unusually young. But as he said before, perhaps this person just came to understand the situation.
Moreover, the family does not have any better solution at the moment. No matter what, they have to deal with the person in front of them first, otherwise the family will have no hope.
With this thought in mind, Zheng Wenxian immediately bowed slightly, clasped his fists and said:
"Zheng Wenxian, head of the Zheng family, respectfully welcomes His Excellency."
"Patriarch Zheng, you are welcome. I am Chen Qingcheng, and I am here to investigate your clan's affairs under the orders of my clan."
When Zheng Wen saw Chen Qingcheng give his name, he felt even colder.
Over the years, a lot of basic information about the Chen family has been learned by the family. Although the Qing generation of the Chen family are the elite, they are still young and certainly cannot match the Tian generation of the Chen family in terms of strength. Although it is impossible to see through the realm of the young man in front of them, it can be expected that this person is at most at the innate realm.
It might be sufficient under normal circumstances, but it is of no help given the family's current situation.
Although he sighed in his heart, Zheng Wenxian still asked with a smile:
"Lord Qingcheng, why don't you rest in our clan for two days?"
Chen Qingcheng looked teasing after hearing this:
"It seems that the nobles' affairs are not very urgent."
Seeing Zheng Wenshan's embarrassed expression, Chen Qingcheng on the back of the blue wolf said bluntly:
"Clan leader Zheng, just tell me everything that happened to your clan recently. I will make my own judgment."
At this point, Zheng Wenxian could only tell the truth about the situation, but he also included a lot of his family's judgments and suggestions in his words.
The implication was that the young man in front of him should give up, immediately ask for instructions from his clan, and then send someone stronger.
He believed that the young man in front of him should understand what he meant.
But when Zheng Wenxian finished speaking, Chen Qingcheng seemed not to understand the meaning of his words, and said again:
"Take me to the cave you are talking about."
