Chapter 619: 198 Take action! Establish power! _2
One was named the Cao Family, and the other was the Lan Family.
The Sky Thunder Rat had investigated thoroughly. A member of the Cao Family served as an Elder in another Immortal City, while the Lan Family was distantly related to the True Monarch Gu Lan of the Moon Mist Peak.
However, Su Yu chose not to have the Sky Thunder Rat announce this.
If they don’t speak, they don’t know.
If they don’t know, then they should be killed first.
Both families in the Nascent Soul Realm were not powerful, one family had a True Monarch Ancestor in the second level of the Nascent Soul Realm, and the other family had a True Monarch Ancestor in the first level of the Nascent Soul Realm.
Aside from these two families, more than thirty Core Formation forces in the Black Prison Immortal City region deliberately instigated conflicts and ignored the orders.
Fan Xiao looked at Su Yu.
Su Yu shrugged: “Speed is the essence of war. As long as you conquer these forces quickly, you will have a say in the Black Prison Immortal City region.”
Saying this, Su Yu’s gaze subtly shifted, and he quietly whispered a few words to Fan Xiao.
The Nascent Soul Realm forces could be dealt with personally.
The other Core Formation forces were assigned to the Ji Family and others for cleanup. Anyone above the Core Formation Realm was to be killed without mercy!
If the Ji Family and others do not comply, then she has one more reason to deal with them.
This was the second move, would the Ji Family accept it or not?
After hearing this, Fan Xiao slightly nodded her head and bluntly said: “I’ll go back to the Immortal Gate first to meet my master. After I come back, I’ll deal with them!”
In less than three days, Fan Xiao returned from the Immortal Gate.
Accompanying her were two people, one was an Elder from the Main Peak’s Penalty Hall in the middle stages of the Nascent Soul Realm. His surname was Lei, his name was Yun Dong, known as True Monarch Lei Yun. The other one was from the Ghost Sword Peak, a Sister of the Peak Master You Ruo, known as True Monarch Ming Jian, with cultivation at the seventh layer of the Nascent Soul Realm.
With the arrival of the two True Monarchs in the Black Prison Immortal Mansion, no one else was disturbed as they quietly went into hiding.
Fan Xiao then summoned Jiang Wen, Chen Zhoudao, Bai Chuan, and others for a meeting, and issued orders.
When Chen Zhoudao heard Fan Xiao wanting to move against the Cao and Lan Families and asked the Ji Family and other forces to deal with the disobedient forces like the Qin Family, his face suddenly changed, and he hurriedly advised: “Daozi, hold on. Doing this will only aggravate the situation. Moreover, the Cao and Lan families have some connections with our Immortal Mansion.”
“Daozi, if you move against these two families, it will put you at odds with some people at the Immortal Gate. You can’t use such annihilating tactics to pacify the chaos in the Immortal City!”
Fan Xiao stared at Chen Zhoudao. Her Daozi’s majesty was condensed, and she just stared at Chen Zhoudao silently without a word.
Gradually, there was a slight change in Chen Zhoudao’s complexion. He averted his gaze, daring not to make eye contact with Fan Xiao. Cold sweat started to break out on his forehead, his face turned slightly pale, and he was feeling uneasy in his heart!
Although Fan Xiao is currently only at the Core Formation Realm, her Immortal Dignity is not weaker than that of a True Monarch at the first level of the Nascent Soul Realm.
Moreover, the identities of the Mansion Master’s personal disciple and Immortal Gate Daozi have resulted in a terrible psychological pressure on Chen Zhoudao, making it difficult for him to bear.
Only when Chen Zhoudao’s face turned pale and bowed his head did Fan Xiao calmly say: “Elder Chen, go to the Ji Family. If the Ji Family does not deal with the three powers under its command, including the Qin Family, then you don’t need to come back!”
Chen Zhoudao’s pupils shrank suddenly, staring at Fan Xiao in shock. Not need to come back!?
His face looked a bit ugly, but his lips moved slightly, and he dared not refute Fan Xiao’s orders!
He was merely an outer Elder.
Usually, it was okay, but ignoring Daozi’s orders, this Daozi is currently in charge of all affairs in the Black Prison Immortal City area; she is his superior.
If he doesn’t obey the orders, then Fan Xiao has the right to deal with him!
Chen Zhoudao’s face looked a bit ugly as he nodded and agreed: “I will obey Daozi’s orders!”
Fan Xiao slightly nodded, turned her gaze to Jiang Wen and Bai Chuan, the two outer Elders, and said: “The forces I mentioned just now, I’ll have Elder Jiang and Elder Bai take people to issue orders.”
“Whoever disobeys within a month will be killed!”
Jiang Wen, an Elder at the fourth level of the Nascent Soul Realm, was already slightly shuddering, looking at Fan Xiao with a touch of shock in his eyes. As for the external mansion of the Black Prison Immortal City, Jiang Wen was the real controller.
Therefore, he was clear which forces in the Black Prison Immortal City area had disobeyed the orders over the past year.
However, Jiang Wen did not report this intelligence to Fan Xiao.
After all, he is a man of craft and guile. If he were to relay all this intelligence to Fan Xiao, then how could he continue to coexist with the forces of the Black Prison Immortal City after she had left?
But now, how exactly had Fan Xiao, this Daozi, come to know this detailed information?
Jiang Wen’s pupils gradually narrowed, terrified upon contemplation. A thin layer of cold sweat emerged on his forehead.
Upon hearing Fan Xiao’s orders, Jiang Wen rose up immediately. He bowed to Fan Xiao with utmost respect and said, “I obey your command, Daozi. Rest assured, I will see to it that this matter is appropriately taken care of!”
Among them, Bai Chuan, an Elder of the External Mansion, looked the most relieved. Fan Xiao had been silent for two years, not taking a step out of the Immortal City. This made Bai Chuan suspicious of whether Fan Xiao was truly committed as a Daozi.
But now, she had proven to be startlingly impressive when she decided to make her move!
Hearing Fan Xiao’s orders, Bai Chuan cast off his listlessness and was filled with excitement.
However, after Jiang Wen accepted the order, Bai Chuan advised, “Daozi, a simple order may not necessarily be obeyed by the Ji Family and other forces. In my view, you should establish your authority first!”
Fan Xiao looked at Bai Chuan, a faint smile of appreciation appeared on her face.
He who advised her to first establish her authority, this Elder Bai Chuan, was truly devoted to the Immortal Sect!
Fan Xiao calmly said, “The three Elders need only deliver the orders to those forces. As for other matters, I will handle them myself.”
Jiang Wen, Chen Zhoudao, and Bai Chuan, the three Elders guarding the Black Prison Immortal City, left with varying emotions.
Likewise, Fan Xiao took Elders True Monarch Lei Yun of the Punishment Hall and True Monarch Ming Jian of Ghost Sword Peak, both from the Immortal Sect, quietly left Black Prison Immortal City to deal personally with both the Cao and Lan families.
Several days later.
Ji Family.
When Chen Zhoudao arrived here, the Ji Family’s Patriarch, Ji Rusong, personally received him, greeting him enthusiastically, “Why has Elder Chen come? What a rare guest!”
However, when Chen Zhoudao delivered Fan Xiao’s orders, Ji Rusong’s complexion changed instantly.
His face turned a puzzled. Shocked, he looked at Chen Zhoudao and said, “Elder Chen, are you mistaken? I’ve heard nothing about the three Qin families disobeying Daozi’s orders. They’ve been quite obedient this year!”
“Daozi hasn’t stepped out of the Immortal City’s gate for more than a year. Has she been fooled?”
Chen Zhoudao gently shook his head and said, “I do not know what Daozi is thinking. But I have relayed Daozi’s order. Whether your Ji Family follows Daozi’s order or not is your business.”
Ji Rusong’s face instantly turned sour. Feeling angry, he thought, would they, the Ji Family, cleanse the forces of the three Qin families?
Isn’t that blatantly putting them, the Ji Family, in a tough spot!
It’s impossible for them, the Ji family, to do such a thing!
However, contemplating on Fan Xiao’s distinguished status as Daozi of the Immortal Mansion, Ji Rusong felt a tremendous pressure, finding it hard to breathe.
Should he follow her command?
If he did not, having offended this Daozi, the future of the Ji Family would be….
Ji Rusong’s expression alternated apprehensively.
Seeing this, Chen Zhoudao said softly, “Daozi has set a time period of one month. Your Ji Family still has half a month to consider!”
Meanwhile, as the Ji family was still hesitating and deliberating, another matter unfolded in a nearby mountain range deep in Cao family territory, which possessed a fourth-order Spirit Vein.
The Cao Family was startled when they received news that Fan Xiao intended to target their family.
However, gradually, the Cao Family regained some calmness.
After all, Fan Xiao had been in the Black Prison Immortal City for two years. She had never stepped out of the city gates or acted against any power, and the situation in the Black Prison Immortal domain remained as it had been.
With this in mind, what did they, the Cao Family, have to fear?
After some deliberation, the Cao Family’s Patriarch, as well as the Family Head and all the Elders regained their confidence.
However, no sooner had the Cao Family ended their discussion than two strands of celestial aura, chilling everyone in the Cao Family to the bone, suddenly descended from the sky above the Family’s territory.
