“Huh? Father, you mean…?”
Huang Ling’er’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Huang Wenyu nodded firmly.
“That’s right. It’s just as you think. Yao Jiangtian and Chu Baqiang both died at the hands of the couple.”
“Hiss!”
Huang Ling’er gasped.
Before his daughter could ask again, Huang Wenyu told her everything he had seen.
In the end, Huang Wenyu added,
“From what I see, it’s only a matter of time before the two of them reach the Golden Core Realm.
Moreover, the rarest thing is that be it their character or temperament, they are among the best.
Ling’er, if there’s a chance in the future, you can build a good relationship with them.”
On the other side.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, who were rushing back to Flat Land County, had already counted their gains from this battle.
It had to be said that the treasures of two Violet Palace Realm cultivators were indeed quite abundant.
Putting everything else aside, there were more than 150,000 spirit stones in their storage rings.
Next were the three Dharma treasures used by the two of them and a Dharma treasure embryo.
The three Dharma treasures were the Dharma treasure spear used by Chu Baqiang, the green Dharma treasure flying sword used by Yao Jiangtian, and the dark green net.
As for the Dharma treasure embryo, it was the white bead that had been shattered by Shen Ruyan.
It was called the Cloud Sky Bead.
It could be considered a defensive Dharma treasure embryo.
Finally, there were some medicinal pills, spiritual herbs, precious materials, and so on that could be used by Violet Palace Realm cultivators.
It was worth about tens of thousands of spirit stones.
At this moment, Shen Ruyan said,
“Husband, did you notice anything when we left there just now?”
Jiang Chengxuan nodded readily.
“If I’m not wrong, there should be two people staring at us.”
“Did you see who they were?”
Jiang Chengxuan shook his head with a solemn expression.
“No.
They seemed to have used some kind of concealment spell. Even with my Heavenly Eye of Insight, I couldn’t see them clearly.
However, 1 have a feeling that they should be people we know, and they didn’t have any hostility towards us.”
At this point, the couple seemed to have thought of something and could not help but look at each other.
Could it be them?
As they pondered, the two of them sped up again.
At the same time.
Flat Land County.
Splendid Jade Mountain.
Shen Baifei, who was temporarily in charge of the Shen family, listened to Shen Rushuang and Xiong Wandao’s report. His expression turned very ugly.
Not long after the news of their ancestor, Shen Mengxue, passing away,
Some Violet Palace Realm Immortal Sects and families that were close to the Hong family immediately began to target the Shen family.
First of all.
Some disciples of the Shen Immortal Family outside were made difficult by many different people, both openly and secretly.
Secondly.
Even some of the businesses and markets under the Shen Immortal Family were boycotted by many cultivators.
In the past ten days.
There were very few people who went to the White Jade Market and were willing to trade with the Shen family.
If this continued, it would not be long before the entire Shen Immortal Family fell into a resource crisis.
Some even offered 50,0000 spirit stones to buy the White Jade Market from the Shen family.
This made Shen Baifei and the other elders of the Shen family furious.
It had to be known that the current White Jade Market could provide the Shen family with tens of thousands of spirit stones every year.
Someone actually wanted to buy their White Jade Market for 50,000 spirit stones.
This was simply intended as a humiliation.
BANG!
Shen Baifei immediately shattered the table in front of him.
His expression was cold as he looked up at Shen Rushuang and Xiong Wandao.
“Cousin Rushuang, Elder Xiong, who wanted to buy the White Jade Market for 50,000 spirit stones?
Do they really think that with Ancestor Mengxue gone, the Shen Immortal Family can be bullied at will?”
At this moment, Shen Rushuang and Xiong Wandao’s expressions were also very ugly.
When they heard Shen Baifei’s question, they remained silent for a moment.
Then, Xiong Wandao said with difficulty,
“It’s the Zhang family.”
“What?”
Shen Baifei was first stunned, then in disbelief.
He did not expect that the person who wanted to buy the White Jade Market for 50,000 spirit stones was actually from the Zhang family in Flat Land County.
After all, the relationship between the Shen family and the Zhang family had always been good.
During the demon beast riot, Shen Yuanlong had fought side by side with the Zhang family’s ancestor, Zhang Baiyang.
However, it was the Zhang family who wanted to buy the Shen family’s White Jade Market for 50,000 spirit stones.
Shen Baifei did not believe that the Zhang family, which was also a Violet Palace Realm immortal Family, did not know the value of the White Jade Market.
He did not believe that the ancestor of the Zhang family, who was at the Violet Palace Realm, was not informed of this.
Since he knew, he still allowed his family to do it…
Shen Baifei could not help but look sad.
“It seems that even the Zhang family in Flat Land County is not optimistic about the future of our Shen family.
“They want to take advantage of the fact that the Shen family is leaderless to slice off a piece of fat meat from the Shen family.”
“Third Uncle, is it possible that the ancestor of the Zhang family actually didn’t know about this?”
At this moment, Shen Rushuang spoke hesitantly.
Hearing her words, Xiong Wandao immediately shook his head.
“It was possible for him not to know at the beginning.
After all, Zhang Baiyang was in seclusion all year round.
But now, so many days have passed.
Even if Zhang Baiyang did not know, the other ancestor of the Zhang family, Zhang Baishan, definitely knew.
As far as I know, many important decisions of the Zhang family have to be approved by Zhang Baishan first because it can be implemented.
I don’t believe that the higher-ups of the Zhang family would hide such a thing from their ancestor, Zhang Baishan.
Moreover, it’s impossible for them to hide it.”
His words completely dispelled Shen Rushuang’s doubts.
A look of grief and indignation appeared on her face as she said hatefully,
“How dare the Zhang family?
Our ancestor is still around.
Moreover, now that Ancestor Mengxue has just left, isn’t the Zhang family afraid of angering Immortal Pelong?”
Upon hearing Shen Rushuang’s words, Shen Baifei and Xiong Wandao smiled bitterly with a shake of their heads.
Xiong Wandao said, “Elder Rushuang, although Immortal Pelong is Ancestor Mengxue’s Dao companion, he is not the son-in-law of the Shen family.
He definitely won’t interfere in such trivial matters.
Because in the eyes of people at their level, as long as the Shen family was not in danger of being exterminated, he wouldn’t step in.
Most importantly…”
At this point, a solemn expression appeared on Xiong Wandao’s face.
He continued, “The greatest danger of the Shen Immortal Family is actually not this.”
This time.
Even Shen Baifei could not help but look up at Xiong Wandao with confusion.
Shen Rushuang asked anxiously, “Elder Xiong, if that’s not the greatest, what is it?”
Xiong Wandao took a deep breath and slowly said.
“Demonic cultivators!”
