That shadow of darkness quickly expanded.
Everyone could see Mi Shuhua, with his somber expression akin to murky water!
“What’s the panic? Stay calm!”
The calm voice acted like a splash of cold water atop Mi Junping’s head, snapping her awake in an instant.
“Speak slowly.”
“Yes.”
After inhaling deeply for composure, Mi Junping started, “There was an urgent message from our Headquarters.”
“At present, attacks have intensified upon the Jiao Hall where Wang Yuan resides, the Battle Hall where Zeng Wen and Qiu Wu belong, as well as Ke
Yuelin’s Beast Hall.”
“Yang Wei, who returned heavily injured from Ancient Plains Mountain Range, was found brutally murdered in his home by the Battle Hall cultivators sent to
seek aid.”
“Headquarters is also under massive attack, led by at least four Ninth Level Qi Refinement Cultivators. Mi Zijun is leading a counterattack, but the situation is
dire.”
End of her report echoed with an unconcealed anxiety.
“Father, the ferocity of the Great Lake Gang’s attacks is even more brutal than
last year!”
After hearing her, the other Mi Family cultivators were also visibly shaken.
Disturbances were swiftly spreading.
Instead of Looking at the Broken Mountain Gang’s situation, Mi Shuhua first mourned.
A man of his capabilities has risen to prominence from a humble Rogue
Cultivator, built his clan and established a Foundation, and seized leadership of the Broken Mountain Gang.
Under his guidance, the Broken Mountain Gang had developed rapidly, rendering no difference between them and other small-sized Sects.
Giving ample resources, he dared challenge the Golden Core Realm.
Regrettably, the descendants, that carried his bloodline, were a bunch of mediocre individuals.
The eldest daughter, impulsive and petty, squandered her exceptional talent due to her short-sightedness and ruined her future because of personal matters.
As for his son and younger daughter, they had nothing to say about their lack
of talent.
In three generations, Mi Zifan, who was painstakingly nurtured, fell apart at the seams due to a single battle loss.
A tragic sight!
Had all the fortunes of Mi Clan concentrated entirely on his life?
“Father, say something!”
“Shut up!”
At Mi Shuhua’s stern glance, Mi Junping trembled.
The last time she saw such a look was when she returned home in disgrace, holding her daughter Mi Li.
With a deep breath, Mi Shuhua remarked, “The Crescent Valley has five Ninth Level Cultivators, the Headquarters houses four, while Wang Yuan and Zeng Wen are capable experts. At least two Ninth Level Qi Refinement Cultivators are needed to overcome them.”
“Including Qiu Wu, Yang Wei, and Ke Yuelin along with the Mining Hall, how many Ninth Level Qi Refinement Experts would the Great Lake Gang have to dispatch?”
“Do they really possess this many experts?”
Not being a fool, Mi Junping quickly grasped the implications.
“Father, are you saying that the Lianyun Business Union is involved in this attack as well, and it’s not just the Great Lake Gang?”
“Aunt, isn’t it obvious? Surely, you aren’t just realizing this now!” With a cold sneer, Mi Zifan retorted with a hint of mockery.
Glaring angrily, Mi Junping seethed.
Exhaling, Mi Shuhua was too tired to intervene in their bickering.
“I thought we had settled things after the Dao Debate Platform.”
“But, this time, the Golden Core ruins have been discovered, and they personally explored the Ancient Plains Mountain Range and found many areas where our Gang had profited.”
“Now, their greed for profit is irresistible.”
His words concealed some important implications.
Desperate, Mi Junping queried,
“Father, what should we do now?”
Rubbing his temples, Mi Shuhua pondered for a moment and calmly said, “The other branches should remain vigilant and rely on their capabilities to hold their ground. If they fall, we can rebuild later. The Great River District is never short of Rogue Cultivators.”
‘We must prioritize the Crescent Valley.”
“Especially, the Pill Hall!”
“It is of utmost importance and cannot be lost!”
“Isn’t it overkill? It’s merely a stronghold of the weak, elderly, women, and children. Comparatively, the three Battle Halls are of greater significance,” Mi Zifan couldn’t resist saying.
“What do you know!” Grabbing the opportunity to mock him, Mi Junping scoffed, “If it’s not important, why would the Great Lake Gang and Lianyun Merchant Alliance dispatch five major Ninth Level Qi Refinement Experts?
The importance of the Pill Hall was evidenced by the enemy’s reverence. At her words, Mi Zifan was left speechless, his face reflecting discomfort. Seeing him unable to retort, Mi Junping was smug. But considering the current situation, she eventually put away her petty triumphant thoughts.
“Father, we are currently short on manpower within the Gang and we’re afraid we won’t manage to spare any cultivators for reinforcement.
Each branch was under attack.
The situation was more precarious than the previous year.
For a while, Mi Junping was unable to come up with a solution.
To her surprise, she noticed her father looking at them.
“Don’t we have all of you?”
“After supporting you for so long, it’s time for us to see some action. Or else, once we officially merge the Broken Mountain Gang into the Mi Family, there will be complaints.”
“This time, it’s an opportunity.”
With his words, the cultivators of the Mi Family fell into commotion.
Under the protection of Mi Shuhua, they hadn’t dealt with such matters for a long time.
Most battles and struggles were taken care of by the Broken Mountain Gang’s lowly rogue cultivators.
Now, it’s their turn to take action?
For a moment, many felt a sense of fear welling up within.
Even Mi Zifan, who achieved some fame on the Dao Debate Platform, was hesitant.
Cultivator fights in real life were not as simple as fair duels on the Dao Debate Platform.
Furthermore, losing to Duan Feng on the Dao Debate Platform had left him with a mental scar.. Was he now expected to go out and fight with others?
