Chapter 31
“That’s right.”
“Good point.”
The two Family Heads nodded. Chen Yang was right. It was impossible for a battle between families to start with a life-and-death battle between Genesis Ancestors.
They needed to target the enemy from all sides to weaken their strength. They would only make a move when they could kill them in one strike and not damage their own strength too much.
The Gongsun family would definitely do the same. At that time, the Li family and the Mo family would definitely provide support. The alliance would be discovered sooner or later.
It was better to cause some trouble for these people and weaken them before they could react.
“Then, Family Head Chen, how do you want us to cooperate?” Family Head Li asked.
“The Chen family will be in charge of attracting the attention of the three families. As for the Li family and the Mo family, they will attack the Feng family’s business when everyone goes to Donglin Town.”
“At that time, our Chen family will first provoke the Gongsun family and attract the attention of the three families.”
“The Chen family doesn’t want a single bit of the resources we plundered from this operation. We’ll give them all to the two of you,” Chen Yang said.
Hearing Chen Yang’s plan, Family Head Li’s eyes lit up. “Wonderful. There’s already a gap between the Liu family and the Feng family. It’s all thanks to the Gongsun family that we can form an alliance.”
“If we attack the Feng family, the Liu family will definitely stand by and watch without knowing about our alliance.”
“And because of the Chen family, the Gongsun family won’t save the Feng family. At that time, there will definitely be a rift between the three families.”
“That’s not all.” Family Head Mo took over the conversation and said with a smile, “If we operate it well, we might be able to turn the Feng family against them in the final battle.”
“Ah, the Feng family will defect?” Family Head Li looked at Family Head Mo in confusion. Our two families have already ambushed them, so why would they still side with us?
“Everything depends on the person.” Chen Yang was very confident about this. “We attacked the Feng family because we are on different sides.”
“Compared to the two families who are on the same side as the Feng family but are watching from the sidelines, the Feng family’s hatred for us might really not be high.”
“When the time comes, if they are given a high profit. Perhaps the defection will really succeed.”
After the Li family and the Mo family finished discussing the plan, they took a tour of the Chen family. After seeing the Chen family’s teachings, the two family heads said that they would implement it when they returned.
At that time, Chen Yang’s scalp went numb. Good lord, this time, not only my family, but the Li family and the Mo family will also scold me behind my back.
After a simple tour, the two families left, waiting for the auction to begin.
About seven days later, Pei Hao officially announced that he would hold an auction in Donglin Town in a month’s time and invite all forces to Donglin Town.
The major families who received the news all set off for Donglin Town.
Although there was still a month to the auction, only the Beastmaster Sect was qualified to participate in the entire Jiangzhou.
Donglin Town was located in the middle of Nanyang County. With the Gale Wolf’s speed, it arrived in half a day.
Everyone would spend the remaining month in Donglin Town. Fortunately, the Dao Integration Bead could refine energy anywhere. Otherwise, Chen Yang would have suffered a huge loss this month.
“Let’s go and find a place to stay first.”
After arriving at Donglin Town, everyone went straight to the inn and booked rooms for a month.
There were countless forces coming to Donglin Town this time. In order to avoid trouble, Chen Yang and the others spent the next month in the inn.
A month later.
“Whoosh!”
Chen Yang took a deep breath and stabilized the boiling spiritual energy in his dantian[2.Dantian means the point two inches below the navel where one’s qi resides]. “After a month of cultivation, the spiritual energy in my dantian has increased a lot.”
“Next, I just have to wait for the Meridian Unlocking Pill to break through my meridians and transform my spiritual energy and to become a Genesis Expert.”
“However, whether I can obtain the Meridian Unlocking Pill will depend on the outcome of this auction.”
According to Alchemist Pei Hao, the auction would begin at noon today. There was only half a day left for the major factions.
Immediately, Chen Yang did not dare to be long-winded and led the Chen family to the auction.
The auction was held in a merchant house in the middle of Donglin Town. This merchant was mainly responsible for the daily necessities of Donglin Town. His house was quite large and was suitable for holding an auction.
“Hello, you have to pay 1,000 Great Qian Gold and 10 Spirit Stones to enter the auction,” said the guard outside the auction house.
How dark.
After complaining in his heart, Chen Yang paid the entrance fee and brought the First Elder into the auction.
As there were many forces participating in the auction, only two people could enter the ninth-grade aristocratic families. As for the VIP rooms, there was no need to think about it. Only eighth-grade aristocratic families had such treatment.
“Family Head Chen, we meet again.”
After Chen Yang sat down, a familiar and ear-piercing voice sounded in his ear.
He turned around and saw Gongsun Miao sneering at him.
“Master Gongsun, what kind of medicinal pills are you buying today? Have you brought enough spirit stones?” Chen Yang also put on a fake smile.
“There’s no need for Family Head Chen to worry. On the other hand, Family Head Chen, have you brought enough spirit stones? If you can’t buy the pills you want because you don’t have enough spirit stones, it will be a huge loss,” Gongsun Miao said.
For a moment, the forces sandwiched between the two families felt the incompatibility between the two families.
Fortunately, both families knew that this was not a place where they could be impudent, so they ignored each other.
However, they made up their minds that if the other party took a fancy to the pill, they would definitely help stir it up.
As the aristocratic families entered the auction, the atmosphere gradually reached its peak.
When the few factions entered the auction, the atmosphere completely exploded.
“The Beastmaster Sect, the Spirit Sword Pavilion, and the Loyalty Marquis Residence. Good lord, three seventh-grade factions actually came to this auction.”
“Since these three factions are here, the auction should begin.”
As if to verify this person’s words, a middle-aged man in a purple robe appeared on the auction stage.
“Thank you for coming to my auction. Let’s skip the small talk and start immediately.”
After a simple opening, the auctioneer in charge of the auction went on stage. The auction officially began!
Because Chen Yang and the others had a clear goal, which was to obtain the Meridian Unlocking Pill, they were not interested in other medicinal pills and closed their eyes to rest.
Until Chen Yang heard the auctioneer’s voice.
“The next item for auction is the Meridian Unlocking Pill. There are a total of ten Meridian Unlocking Pills. Please don’t miss it because you are stingy with spirit stones.”
“They’re coming!”
Chen Yang suddenly opened his eyes. There were a total of ten Meridian Unlocking Pills. This competition did not seem ordinary.
