Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors

More than ten miles from the mining area, there is a scenic little canyon with a babbling brook below and birds singing and flowers blooming along its banks.

At this moment, six cultivators gathered above the canyon. They were all Xuan Dan realm cultivators, each wielding a powerful weapon, and stood ready in various corners.

Leading the group were the patriarchs of the Zou and Wei families. Like Xu Qingzhou, they were both at the mid-stage of the Profound Core Realm, but they were already over a hundred years old. It could be said that they had no hope of breaking through to the Purple Mansion Realm in their lifetime.

However, they believed that if they could become the only major family in Yunshan City and concentrate all their resources, there was a certain probability that they could cultivate a Purple Mansion cultivator in the future.

At that time, the overall strength of their family will also increase, allowing them to have a higher status and acquire more resources, which will create a virtuous cycle.

So the two families discussed it and decided to deal with the Xu family, this rising star that posed a threat to them, first.

The head of the Zou family was named Zou Kui. He was a big, burly man who looked like a laborer.

"Hopefully, Xu Qingzhou can bring more elders with him, so we can take them all down in one fell swoop, making the cleanup much easier."

The head of the Wei family was named Wei Sanyuan. He had a goatee, was not tall, had small eyes, and a shifty look. He chuckled.

"It would be best to bring all seven of their old men along."

Zou Kui nodded and replied, "If that's really the case, then that would be great."

As soon as he finished speaking, the warning array set up in the distance reacted.

"Cheer up! The fish's taken the bait!!!"

All six Xuan Dan cultivators present concealed their auras, like venomous snakes spotting their prey, lying in wait, poised to strike.

"Whoosh!"

"boom!!"

A streak of light flashed in the distance, and a gray spaceship flew in. Then, as if it had crashed into something, it made a loud roar.

"rise!!"

Zou Kui jumped out and suddenly raised his hand. In an instant, beams of light rose from all directions, like walls, trapping the spaceship.

This was clearly a pre-arranged trap; the spaceship was like a bird caught in a cage, with no way to escape.

At this moment, the others also jumped out with weapons, and without saying a word, they bombarded the spaceship.

In an instant, weapons flew wildly, explosions rang out continuously, and all sorts of dazzling attack methods emerged one after another.

Zou Kui, in particular, took out a small, square, yellow seal that shimmered with light. This seal was actually a rare, high-grade Xuan-level weapon.

With his push, the small seal transformed into a small mountain a hundred feet long and wide, crashing down on the flying boat with unparalleled force.

Most flying magical artifacts not only fly fast, but also have a certain defensive capability.

However, this Flying Eagle Boat was only a high-grade Yellow-rank magic weapon, and under the relentless bombardment of the six Profound Core cultivators, it couldn't withstand it for long.

In particular, the small yellow seal used by Zou Kui was enough to completely blast the flying boat into pieces with just one strike.

As the thick smoke dissipated, Zou Kui frowned.

"Where is everyone? Why is there no one here?!"

They assumed the Xu family members were all on the flying boat, so they didn't think twice and went all out.

But even after blasting this precious flying magic weapon into dust, they couldn't detect a trace of a cultivator's aura.

Just as everyone was confused, a handsome man with an ethereal air flew over, riding a magical artifact shaped like a leaf.

Xu Qingzhou stood on a leaf, his hands behind his back, his clothes and long hair fluttering in the wind. Compared to the rugged Zou Kui and the sleazy Wei Sanyuan, Xu Qingzhou looked like a cultivator.

Are you all looking for me?

Everyone was astonished to see Xu Qingzhou unharmed.

Zou Kui asked instinctively, "You! Why aren't you on the flying boat?"

Xu Qingzhou chuckled and looked at Wei Sanyuan with gratitude.

"Thank you, Brother Wei. We'll stick to our original agreement: after we wipe out the Zou family, we'll split the spoils three to seven, with us taking three and you taking seven."

Wei Sanyuan was a little confused.

what are you saying?

When did we make this agreement?

Upon hearing this, Zou Kui was instantly enraged. Pointing at Wei Sanyuan, he roared, "So that's why such a meticulous plan failed! It was you, you old scoundrel! You betrayed us!!"

He was about to turn around and attack me.

Wei Sanyuan finally came to his senses and quickly said, "It's a misunderstanding, Brother Zou! Although I don't know how the information was leaked, I absolutely did not betray you. He was trying to sow discord!"

He was almost dying of anxiety.

Even if the ambush fails, we still have a significant advantage. If Zou Kui suddenly turns against us, not only will the plan fail, but we will also be in great danger.

Xu Qingzhou laughed and said, "Brother Wei, there's no need to put on an act at this point. Let's work together to deal with them and divide the Zou family's assets."

Zou Kui had cultivated himself for over a hundred years; he wasn't a fool. After careful consideration, he suddenly realized the truth.

If the Wei family were willing to betray them, they would have had the opportunity to act long ago; there would have been no need to wait until now.

I was just misled and couldn't think of any other reason for the information to be leaked. In my anxiety, I lost my mind.

He pointed at Xu Qingzhou and cursed angrily, "You bastard! I almost fell for your trick!!!"

Seeing that he had figured it out, the Wei family members all breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, he still controls that extremely powerful Xuan-rank high-grade magic weapon. If he really believes Xu Qingzhou's instigation and turns against him and joins Xu Qingzhou in dealing with him, then he will definitely not be a match for them.

I feel uneasy working with people who aren't very smart.

Wei Sanyuan said loudly, "Xu Qingzhou, your attempts to sow discord have failed. Now, how do you plan to die?"

Xu Qingzhou laughed and said, "I never thought it would succeed in the first place; I was just stalling for time."

Delaying time?

The members of the Zou and Wei families looked at each other, and couldn't help but wonder what was going on in their minds.

Did Xu Qingzhou hire powerful outside help?

Yes! He must have found help, otherwise how could he dare to appear in front of everyone all by himself, looking so calm and collected?

Thinking of this, everyone suddenly panicked. What if they tried to kill someone but ended up being killed instead?

Wei Sanyuan quickly reassured everyone, "Don't worry, if he had invited a Purple Mansion cultivator, he could have wiped us out with a wave of his hand. There's no need to waste time saying all this."

Zou Kui controlled the large yellow seal.

“That’s right! With this magic weapon, even if he summons all the elders of the Xu family, it won’t make a difference.”

Wei Sanyuan said, "Stop wasting time talking to him, let's just take action!"

For some reason, he felt a tightness in his chest and had a bad feeling, so he decided to resolve the matter as soon as possible to put Xu Qingzhou at ease.

Zou Kui waved his hand.

"on!"
