Chapter 1832 The Source of Drastic Change

The only remaining Qi Refiner is really from the Qu family.

The Qu family is actually a branch of the Xiong family, but after they defected, they showed that we are the Qu family and have nothing to do with the Xiong family.

Hedong Town, one of the top three towns, is controlled by the Qu family, and the first ancestral temple of the Xiong family is also in the hands of the Qu family.

Hedong Town is one of the driving forces of this war. It did not participate in the war itself, but only provoked in secret.

But who would have thought that when the catastrophe came, all the calculations seemed so ridiculous in the face of the overwhelming power.

Qu Jianlei and others explored for many days. This small world is not big, and they are also very clear about the distribution of various forces.

Although the Qu family is only a branch, it currently controls the ancestral temple and Hedong Town, and its strength is unquestionable.

The key is that they may also have a more ancient inheritance in their hands.

At least, the people in the small world have been taken away, and the only survivors are the Qu family.

Qu Jianlei carefully sensed it and confirmed that there was no demonic aura on this person.

His eyes swept across the neck of this person, and he spoke calmly, "Name, identity..."

This person's eyes were blank, and he was dazed for at least seven or eight minutes before he looked at Qu Jianlei and his group.

Although he was a little absent-minded, he still answered subconsciously, "Qu Shitong, everyone... from the ancestral temple?"

No matter how much he was stimulated, he could tell that the people on the opposite side were definitely not just in the foundation-building stage.

The huge cloud crown in the sky should be controlled by these people.

All his relatives, friends, enemies and rivals... were all taken away by the cloud crown, and their lives and deaths were unknown.

However, he couldn't hate it. If it weren't for the changes in the past six days... it would be hard to say.

He didn't want to recall the changes that happened in these six days at all - what a tragedy it was!

For some reason, his relatives and friends in the past were alienated in an instant.

Those with good character can still control themselves, while those with bad character directly lost their minds and killed indiscriminately without distinguishing between enemies and friends.

The same clan fought against each other, relatives and friends raped each other's daughters, people cannibalized each other... What a tragic scene!

As a high-level Qi Refiner, Qu Shitong also tried to stop it, but... it was useless. He almost died at the hands of his clan brother.

He thought others were abnormal, and others thought he was abnormal, and they wanted to kill them!

Two uncles who were still sane told him one after another: Something happened, protect yourself first, you may be the only hope of the clan!

This was the sincere advice they gave when they were occasionally sober.

Qu Shitong was born in the eldest branch of the Qu family. Although he is currently declining, his status and position are not low.

And he is also one of the children in the clan who is expected to build a foundation.

With the care of these two uncles, Qu Shitong hid, but not long after, he was discovered...

Those alienated clan members have strong perception, and he can't hide for long anywhere.

In order to protect himself, he had to attack his alienated relatives and friends, and then find a new place to hide.

That kind of experience and mood... These six days were really like a year for him.

Qu Jianlei shook his head and replied lightly, "We have nothing to do with the ancestral temple. Answer my question first."

Qu Shitong was a little too stimulated. He was obviously stunned when he heard this, "If it's not the ancestral temple, then where are you from?"

Who are you talking to? Qu Jianlei wanted to be serious with him, but thought of the last encounter, and gave up.

"You don't need to care where we come from, what about the question I asked you?"

Qu Shitong's brain was still confused. Hearing the other party repeating the question, and thinking of the other party's strength, he recounted the experience.

After listening to him roughly, Qu Jianlei said lightly, "You have never prepared for similar precautions?"

"Who would have thought that such a thing would happen?" Qu Shitong answered subconsciously.

Then he was stunned again, "This kind of thing... What kind of disaster is it?"

Although he was in a trance, he was sure that these people were definitely from the outside world and might have relevant answers.

"Invaded by the demonic energy," Qu Jianlei frowned, "haven't you even heard of this?"

"Of course I've heard of the demonic energy, but..." Qu Shitong answered without hesitation. "Isn't that the inner demon of a high-level cultivator?"

Belonging to the immortal cultivation system, he has no lack of relevant knowledge, but according to common sense, at least one must be in the foundation-building stage to have an inner demon, right?

Encountering a demonic energy during the Qi Refining Stage... This statement is unheard of. Even if it is true, it should be a possession of the body.

The current situation is really beyond his cognition.

"Your small world is a little different," Qu Jianlei was too lazy to say more.

The immortal cultivation world is so big that any strange things can happen. This person is still constrained by the small world and his thinking is not broad enough.

When he heard the word "small world", Qu Shitong thought of the other party's identity again.

"Where did you come from? Did you cause the changes in this small world?"

"How can you talk like that?" Qu Jianlei frowned, "Didn't the elders at home teach you how to communicate with the superiors?"

"I was wrong, please forgive me," Qu Shitong was willing to follow suit.

Although the upper limit of this small world is not high, it is also strictly hierarchical. It is absolutely a capital crime to offend the foundation-building ancestors.

However, this tragedy has caused too much of a blow to him, and he still can't help asking, "Senior, didn't you just pass by?"

Qu Jianlei shook his head, "How can you cause such a disaster when you are guarding this world?"

He knew very well that the tragedy was indeed caused by paranoia, but the blame was definitely not on the team.

If they hadn't come, the small world would probably have become the paradise of the demons in a while.

"Guarding..." Qu Shitong muttered softly, then shook his head.

Of course, he knew this old saying, but that was a long time ago, and people here have changed their minds.

He smiled bitterly, "We were just exiled from the world of immortal cultivation, so what about guarding?"

Qu Jianlei nodded slightly when he heard this, "No wonder, it seems that this is why the demons have an opportunity to take advantage of it."

He didn't want to continue this topic, so he changed the subject, "You are not affected, is it because of your jade pendant?"

There was a not-so-big jade pendant hanging under the other person's neck - it should be jade, right?

Qu Shitong subconsciously touched his neck, then shook his head, "I don't know, it's passed down from my ancestors."

In fact, he knew very well that he was not affected because of this pendant.

In the past few days, his mind occasionally had a little impulse.

But every time that happened, a cool breath would always come out of the jade pendant, which made him regain his consciousness.

This pendant is indeed an ancestral heirloom, and can be traced back to the first generation of the Xiong family who came to this small world.

Later, when the Qu family separated from the Xiong family, they took the pendant away.

However, before the tragedy, it had never shown any magical properties.

So roughly speaking, this is just a thought left by the ancestors - or from the perspective of cultural relics, it also has some value.

He is the eldest son of the Qu family. He got this thing when he was a child and has always kept it.

But he really didn't expect that this thing would eventually save his life.

Qu Jianlei felt that he was speaking one way and another, and shook his head disapprovingly.

"We don't have the habit of taking things from the younger generation, I hope you'll tell the truth!"

"The main reason why the demon launched this time is that someone in the Xiong family colluded with the demon... Do you think you can clear yourself?"

"The Xiong family... colluded with the demon?" Qu Shitong was petrified when he heard this.

To be honest, he really didn't expect that this matter could be put on him.

Although the sayings of the demons were already legends, the Qu family had always regarded themselves as descendants of immortal cultivators.

In the family, there was really a lot of relevant knowledge, and he even knew that anyone who colluded with the demons would be killed by everyone.

In view of this, Qu Shitong subconsciously retorted, "Senior, you may have made a mistake... I am from the Qu family."

"Is it interesting to tell me this?" Qu Jianlei asked back, and then raised his chin.

"Speak clearly, otherwise it will be too late to regret when we search your soul!"

From his tone, there was no room for negotiation, and Qu Shitong was a little anxious.

Now that there was no one around, his life was in the hands of the other party, "Senior, we have been separated for a long time... What do you want to know?"

Facts have proved that Qu Shitong didn't know much more than Xiong Shimao-although the Xiong family didn't have the jade pendant, it was the main branch after all.

Qu Jianlei listened and asked a few questions from time to time.

This person is probably the only one left in this small world, and he is mentally normal. If possible, he does not want to search his soul.

However, as he asked questions, Qu Shitong also understood that it was Xiong Chumo who was in trouble.

Xiong Chumo is also well-known in the whole small world. Even the Qu family, as a branch, regards him as their pride.

Of course, when it comes to specific interests, that is another story, but this does not prevent the Qu family from admiring him.

Hearing that the disaster was caused by this person, Qu Shitong was speechless, and he spoke with gritted teeth for a long time.

"There are really no good things in the main branch... It hurts people a lot!"

Qu Jianlei said calmly, "We dug out Xiong Chumo's body, and there is a very obvious demonic aura."

"Dig out... the body?" Qu Shitong was stunned at first, and then he made up his mind, "You seniors are still very sharp-eyed, I admire you!"

Digging up ancestral graves is a blood feud that cannot be reconciled, and the Xiong family and the Qu family have the same ancestor.

But now, he obviously can't care.

"I haven't finished what I said," Qu Jianlei looked at him and said lightly, "Now, we have to check the roots of his inheritance..."

"This is..." Qu Shitong's face changed, it was really ugly.

Xiong Chumo is already the ancestor of the new branch of the Xiong family. If he still wants to check the roots, where will he check?

The first ancestral temple of the Xiong family is also the ancestral temple of the Qu family - is he going to dig up the body of my ancestor?

He believed that the other party could definitely do it, and this is how things work in the world of immortal cultivation.

If there is a clear gap in realm between the two sides, then the words of the strong will work.
