Chapter 393: Five Clans Competition
After coming out of the teleportation array, everyone rode on the Qingluan to Yuling City. The scenery along the way was beautiful. Although there were no famous big cities, there were many villages and towns.
Yu Chengpeng pointed to a river under his feet and said, "This side of the river is the Yu family's sphere of influence. We will be there in another day's flight."
Zhong Ling'er was surprised. She didn't expect that her fourth senior brother, who was always taciturn, had a family territory that was not small and was so hidden.
Half a day later, Zhong Ling'er saw a vast forest below and could faintly hear the roars of monsters.
Zhong Ling'er's eyes lit up, and Yu Chengpeng smiled and said, "Yes, there are many monsters in this forest, and the most powerful ones have strong spiritual cultivation."
"Ah, speaking of monsters, I think of the rations for the saber-toothed tiger. A few days ago, the elder of the Beast God Peak said that the monster corpses we got before were almost eaten up, and asked me to get some more when I have a chance. How about we go down and play for a few days?"
Everyone had no objection, so Qingluan led everyone to land in the forest.
Zhong Ling'er asked Bai Ze to point out a way, and then led everyone to rush into the depths.
Everyone thought that this would be a relaxing, playful trip, but everyone forgot that Zhong Ling'er had never been a content person. On the contrary, she was very stingy, so stingy that she wanted to pack up all the monsters in the forest and take them away.
Finding monsters one by one and then killing them was too slow, so Zhong Linger took out the formation plate and smiled at the brothers, "Let's start the activity of encircling and suppressing the monsters."
So everyone chose an area and placed many formation plates. Then the seven people divided into three groups to drive out the monsters in the surrounding area, driving all the monsters into the formation, and finally everyone worked together to kill them.
Bai Ze was speechless. He had just pointed in the direction of the depths and said it was "very dangerous", but why was Zhong Ling'er so excited?
He was asked to take the test eight hundred times every day, but not once did it go as he wanted. Bai Ze now suspected that Zhong Ling'er only asked him to take the test casually to make him feel more present.
The monster was chased by several people and ran around in panic, making a lot of noise in the woods. Several big trees were knocked down by the large monsters, which attracted some people's attention.
The runes of the formation rose up one after another, and all the monsters in the entire area were trapped here. Zhong Ling'er called back her fellow brothers, and everyone started killing together.
They have done these things countless times, so they are not difficult, but they are strange in the eyes of some people.
Two men and one woman appeared in front of Zhong Ling'er.
"Little sister, it's fun for you to kill monsters like this. How about I give you some spirit stones and you sell all these monsters to me?"
There would be more monsters if more were caught, but not many people were willing to pay spirit stones for them. Seeing that the woman had a peaceful face and spoke politely, Zhong Ling'er sold all the remaining monsters to her.
The group walked deeper into the cave. It was surprisingly quiet ahead, but there was also a bit of an ominous atmosphere.
Zhong Ling'er placed a few more formation plates and said, "Brothers, don't go too far. Just walk around nearby."
The crowd took action once again. Although there were not many monsters trapped this time, their cultivation was above the Nascent Soul stage.
This time, two men and one woman appeared, and they were all familiar faces, Yu Chengxuan, Yu Ziyan, and Zhong Yuxue.
Zhong Ling'er couldn't help but admire Zhong Yuxue, she was really a haunting figure and could be seen everywhere.
It seems that if she doesn't want to be killed by Zhong Yuxue, she has to strike first.
Yu Ziyan's eyes lit up when she saw the trapped monsters, and she directly ordered Yu Chengpeng: "You are still useful to us. During this period of time, there is a big competition among the five tribes in my family, and you have to help me."
"Now go to the front and help me trap the monster. Leave this to me."
Zhong Linger's eyes widened. Although she didn't know what this five-tribe competition was all about, the tone in which she gave orders to her fourth senior brother seemed too natural.
"We won't help you. Besides, all these monsters belong to me. My fourth brother can't make the decision. It's useless for you to talk to him. If you want something, you might as well beg me."
Yu Ziyan looked at Zhong Ling'er with resentment, while Yu Chengxuan stepped forward and stood out.
"Fifth brother, you should know the significance of the Five Clans Competition to the Yu family. As a member of the Yu family, you must help us."
Yu Chengpeng looked at Zhong Ling'er, obviously hesitant.
Zhong Ling'er immediately came over and took the fourth senior brother away.
"Fourth Senior Brother, what is going on with this five-clan competition? Why don't you just tell me what you think?"
Yu Chengpeng lowered his voice and said, "Junior sister, the Yu family is a large family with five branches, which evolved over ten thousand years to form five clans. These five clans are in charge of the key to the family secret realm. Our ancestors stipulated that the clan leaders of the five clans should be replaced every hundred years, and the clan that wins the battle of the five clans will take over."
"I belong to the direct branch of the Yu family, which is also the most powerful clan in the Yu family. My father has been the clan leader for three hundred years. But because of this, everyone in our clan is arrogant and do their best to suppress the other four clans."
"Honestly speaking, as a family member, I should help them, but from a personal standpoint, I don't want to help the evil."
Zhong Linger smiled, "Fourth Senior Brother, if you help them, it won't be as serious as aiding and abetting the evil. But since you don't want to help, then just follow your heart, and listen to me for the rest."
Yu Chengpeng laughed, "Sisixiong, when did you ever stop listening to me?"
Zhong Ling'er pouted, "When I was leaning on Third Brother."
Bai Luochen chatted with Yu Chengxuan for a while and told him that they came here because Zhong Ling'er wanted to catch a monster. As for the ownership of the monster, they and their fellow disciples would let Zhong Ling'er decide.
Zhong Ling'er came back and said coldly with a smile: "Master Yu, your five-tribe competition has nothing to do with us. I don't want to participate either. Whoever gets the monster beast will decide based on their own abilities."
After saying that, Zhong Ling'er pulled Ouyang Ruochen's sleeve and said coquettishly: "Big Brother, these monsters are not delicious enough. There should be better ones inside. Can you take us to catch some more?"
Ouyang Ruochen smiled dotingly, "Isn't it just catching some monsters? My little sister can have as many as she wants."
He turned to the other disciples and said, "Let's go. We must catch a monster that will satisfy our little disciple before tonight."
So the group ignored the Yu family and walked deeper into the area.
Yu Zi Yan was unwilling to give up, so she ran to the formation and tried to attack the trapped monster, but she couldn't even break the wall of the formation.
Zhong Yuxue stepped forward and advised, "It's useless. Zhong Ling'er's formation requires a jade talisman that she made specially to enter. We shouldn't waste time here now. We should grab some monsters before they do. Otherwise, with their style of doing things, they might not leave any monsters for us."
"If they dare, we are not the only ones here. The other families will not let them go either."
Zhong Yuxue smiled sarcastically, "If we don't let them go, we have to defeat them."
