"Brother, it's raining!"
In the family, the tribe members who were preparing for the next battle suddenly looked up and exclaimed.
"Brother, it's just raining, not raining knives. Look at how ignorant you are."
"No, brother, the rain this time seems to be a little different, come and get wet."
Seeing his cousin's surprised expression, Chen Hanli couldn't help but walk towards the open space.
When the fine rain fell on his body, Chen Hanli was shocked.
This feeling was as if years of dirt had been thoroughly washed away, and he felt as if his entire being had been sublimated at this moment. The feeling was indescribable.
This made Chen Hanli couldn't help but admire:
“This rain…”
“It’s so comfortable!”
Soon, the tribesmen who got the news came out to get in the rain and feel the auspicious sign from heaven. For a moment, the family, which had been quite noisy due to the impending war, suddenly became quiet.
"Chief, divine rain has fallen from the sky. This time our clan will surely win."
Listening to Chen Tianling's words, Chen Tianjing smiled slightly without comment.
Rather than saying it was a blessing from heaven, it would be more accurate to say it was a manifestation of the sacred tree. However, with a great war imminent, it wouldn't be a bad thing to give the tribesmen more confidence.
"How is the family preparing?"
Chen Tianjing immediately asked.
"Reporting to the clan leader, the clan members are almost ready. The clan secret passage has been cleared and a lot of resources have been placed in the secret passage. The clan members can evacuate through the secret passage at any time."
"Well, don't tell other members of the tribe about this for now."
After saying that, a trace of worry flashed across Chen Tianjing's eyes.
He shouldn't have done this in this family war, and once this matter was exposed, it would undoubtedly affect the beliefs of the clan members.
But as the patriarch, he cannot act on faith alone, he still needs to consider the practical aspects.
He didn't want his family to be destroyed in his hands, so he left a trace of blood for the family so that his Chen family could continue. This was the last bit of protection he left for his family.
If they are really defeated, Chen Tianleng will lead some of his clansmen to evacuate from the secret passage in time. He will also ask the sacred tree to send down a branch. In this way, the Chen family will still have hope.
Of course, this is just his worst-case scenario plan, and he hopes it won't be used in the future.
After some thought, Chen Tianjing hurriedly said:
"Quickly sacrifice all the ferocious beasts raised by the tribe to the sacred tree."
In order not to delay the weekly sacrifices to the sacred tree, the family has raised a number of ferocious beasts in recent years, among which the spirit-tailed chicken and the black gold beast are the most common.
However, the war is imminent, so sacrifices should be made in advance.
However, the situation is tense, so there is no need to hold a grand family sacrificial ceremony. Besides, the resources of the ferocious beasts are not enough for a grand sacrificial ceremony.
"Yes, Patriarch."
…
"Look, what is that?"
In Yunmeng City, many idle warriors looked up at the shadow above and exclaimed in surprise.
"Hush, keep your voice down. This is the Silver Snow Owl of the Gongyang Family. I saw it once when I was in Yelang County. This beast is extremely fast and can travel hundreds of miles a day. Such a huge Silver Snow Owl must have already reached the realm of controlling Qi. Don't point at me blindly."
"Hiss, the Gongyang family is so powerful, I wonder where they are going."
"Oh, don't you know that?"
The warriors at the side looked at the person asking with astonishment, which attracted a lot of onlookers. After all, as idle warriors, although they were well-informed, they did not know enough about the movements of these upper-class families.
After the speaker explained, everyone quickly understood the reason and couldn't help but sigh:
"In this case, the Chen family of Mass Burial Hill is finished."
"If I remember correctly, the one who was in charge of Yunmeng City before was also the Chen family of the Massacre Mountain."
"Alas, the current situation is turbulent, and it is rare for my Yunmeng City to be stable."
Many idle warriors in the city sighed. They regarded Yunmeng City as their home and of course hoped that the city would be safe and sound. However, the frequent changes of families in the city would also affect the lives of ordinary people in the city. If they were caught up in it without paying attention, they might even lose their lives. How could they not worry about themselves and the future of Yunmeng City?
At this time, the warrior who had just started to explain quickly stood up and said with a faint smile:
"Don't worry, everyone. Although the Chen family is dead, I heard that the Lu family of Jinyun Mountain is ready to take over Yunmeng City. The Lu family is kind-hearted and powerful. Everyone will have a good life. I also heard that the Lu family is still recruiting elders from other families. If you think you have the ability, you can apply for this position."
"Oh? Are you serious? Brother, please tell us about the Lu family."
While this person was describing patiently, several warriors stood up:
"Oh, Lu Fu, your Lu family is so shameless. Do you think you can seize Yunmeng City by using this method? My Shanshui Cao family will be the first to disagree!"
Seeing that the two sides were about to engage in a fierce battle, the warriors in the city who had just gathered together all scattered.
Even though the Chen family is still alive, his Yunmeng City has already been coveted by many families. It seems that he will have no good days in the future.
…
"Clan leader, Yunmeng City is just below us. The clan will need another day to reach Yong'an City. I have notified the clan elders in various places to reduce the blockade area and ensure that this person cannot escape from our clan's blockade area."
Hearing the report from the elder beside him, Gongyang Junhao nodded slightly, and at the same time, he looked down at Yunmeng City below, and said lightly:
"Let's also incorporate this city into our family's territory later!"
"Yes, Patriarch."
After saying that, Gongyang Junhao didn't look at it any more. The reason why he didn't take over this city when his family destroyed the Zhou family last time was, on the one hand, he disliked that Yunmeng City was too far away from the family, and on the other hand, he wanted to use the remaining people of the Zhou family to test whether there was a blessed land here. That's why he deliberately let this city fall into the hands of other families.
However, the matter of the blessed land has not been confirmed, and now there is a blessed land in Tongqiu Mountain that needs to be guarded by the family, so it is better to build Yunmeng City into a family stronghold in the future.
In this way, the gap in the family's power can be made up. If a family elder is attacked again, the family can quickly block the surrounding area without wasting too much time like this time.
In just a moment, the Silver Snow Owl of the Gongyang family flew past from high in the sky.
However, many small families in Yunmeng City have learned about this and are trying to seize the city. After all, this city is prosperous, and even without a medium-sized family in charge, it is still wealthy. Even if there are no resources left, it would be a good thing to plunder some jade coins, ironware and other resources from the city, or to recruit some warriors from other families to strengthen the family's strength.
