Chapter 143 The Storm
Taiyuan Mountain, in the Huang family meeting room.
More than a dozen Huang family cultivators in the late Qi Refining stage were standing obediently in front of the two foundation-building ancestors.
"Have you found out the situation of the person from the Song family who suddenly built a foundation?"
Faced with the inquiry of the two ancestors, an older man in the crowd hurried out and replied: "Report to the ancestors, we have already found out in the past two days that the person from the Song family who just built a foundation is named Song Qingming. This person is a cultivator of the "Qing" generation of the Song family. Judging from the fact that he only cultivated to the ninth level of Qi Refining in his forties, it is estimated that he should be a cultivator with three spiritual roots."
"Three spiritual roots to build a foundation, it's not bad luck, but why have I never heard of this name? Didn't the clan leader specifically tell you to pay more attention to the talented cultivators in the vassal families below?" Huang Chengliang, with a majestic face, asked again thoughtfully.
Hearing the ancestor's questioning, the dozen or so Huang family cultivators below became a little nervous in an instant, looking at each other for a while, not knowing how to answer.
Seeing that no one spoke, the old man who had just taken the lead in answering could only bite the bullet and continue to answer: "The most talented cultivator in the Song family is named Song Qingze. We have actually been paying attention to him all these years. He left the Song family many years ago and joined the Xiaoyao Sect."
"I'm asking about the one who has already established his foundation. Why are you talking about other people? Has no one of you come into contact with this person in all these years?" Huang Chengliang interrupted the old man with some displeasure, and his tiger eyes turned and swept to the others.
"Report to the ancestor, seven years ago when the family conquered Chifeng Mountain, Song Qingming was called by us to participate in that great battle. I met this person when I received the Song family cultivators at that time, but his cultivation level was only the eighth level of Qi Refining at that time. In that battle, the Song family cultivators performed very ordinary and did not attract my attention. Later, during the monster rebellion, Song Qingming also followed us to Huoyun Mountain, and his performance was also mediocre. I didn't expect that after not seeing him for a few years, this boy would actually establish his foundation." The person who stood up to speak was Huang Xianlong, who had received the Song family cultivators in Wufeng Mountain. This person and the current patriarch of the Song family, Song Changfeng, have known each other for many years and have some friendship.
Another middle-aged man continued, "We have also investigated Song Qingming's recent situation in the past few days. One year after the monster rebellion, this person suddenly left Qinghe County and seemed to have gone to Xiaoyao Sect. When he returned to Qinghe County last month, he was already a foundation-building cultivator."
Hearing this, Huang Shengyue, another foundation-building ancestor of the Huang family who had not spoken, suddenly said, "Third uncle, this Song Qingming should have successfully built his foundation near Xiaoyao Sect. Please send a message to Uncle Nineteen and ask him to help in the sect. "I want to ask what kind of spiritual object Song Qingming got to build his foundation and how he built his foundation."
Huang Chengliang nodded and agreed to this matter, and then said: "Shengyue, the clan leader is still in seclusion, and it is not convenient for me to go out. You should go to the Song family and pay attention to see what kind of talent this kid has and whether he can continue to be used by our Huang family in the future."
Huang Shengyue nodded and said: "Don't worry, uncle San, I will prepare for this matter."
——
Qinghefang, in a secret room behind the Gao Family Restaurant.
Gao Jinhe, the head of the Gao family, smiled and looked at a young man in front of him and said slowly: "You should have heard about it, fellow Daoist Lu, not long ago, there was another foundation-building cultivator in Qinghe County. I think we may have another helper."
"What do you mean by this, brother Gao, please explain it clearly." The other young man who spoke was Lu Xingde, the head of the Lu family, another foundation-building family in Qinghe County.
Gao Jinhe paused and said, "I just found out not long ago that my daughter Yuyao is about the same age as this fellow Taoist from the Song family who has just established his foundation, and we once had a friendship. I am willing to try to see if I can pull him over to our side."
Lu Xingde heard this and said with a look of surprise, "Brother Gao, our two families have been suppressed by the Huang family for many years, and most of the resources in Qinghe County are also occupied by the Huang family. We have no other choice but to be angry and swallow our anger over the years. Now there is a rare opportunity. Brother Gao, please make good use of it. As long as this can be accomplished, my Lu family will follow the lead of the Gao family in the future."
The Lu family only has Lu Xingde, a foundation-building cultivator. He has only been building his foundation for more than 40 years, and his cultivation level is only the third level. In Qinghe County, the Lu family occupies the southeast side. There are not many cultivation resources in the territory, and they need to face the suppression of the huge Huang family from time to time. Lu Xingde, who has always been cautious, decisively chose to hug the Gao family and resist the Huang family's step-by-step pressure.
——
Chifeng Ridge, Qian Family.
Qian Guangyao looked at the dozen remaining cultivators below, and said slowly with some pain on his face: "I did make a wrong move when I chose to move the family here. Although we are now protected by the mountain protection formation, there are only a few members left. What's the point of guarding this empty spiritual vein?
I have decided that my whole family will join Xiaoyao Sect in the future, and this spiritual vein will also be handed over in exchange for some resources to be distributed to everyone. Those who are willing to go to Xiaoyao Sect with me can follow me, and those who are not willing can return to the ancestral land of Linlong Mountain. However, you will be thousands of miles away from me in the future, and you will not be able to rely on me anymore."
The Qian family cultivators below shed tears when they heard that the clan leader was going to give up this place and join Xiaoyao Sect. However, they were powerless and it was difficult to change the clan leader's mind even if they tried to persuade him to stay. They could only feel sad.
The Qian family had been established in Qinghe County for hundreds of years. Unexpectedly, just when someone in the clan had just built a foundation and was about to usher in a good period of development, they suddenly suffered a devastating disaster from the monster rebellion. All the mortals under their rule were killed or injured. Now even the family could not continue.
Song Qingming, who was in Funiu Mountain, did not know that with his return from building a foundation, the situation in Qinghe County was undergoing some subtle changes.
Since Song Qingyu gave him a colorful spirit beast egg, he has been studying it in his cave for more than half a month, but still has no clue.
"From the bright appearance of this spirit beast egg, it should not be a dead object."
However, he looked up a lot of information, but still could not find a way to hatch this spirit beast egg. He also tried to use mana catalysis, but also did not see any effect, which made him a little discouraged.
I didn't expect that I had just built my foundation and hadn't had time to show off in front of my clan members, but I encountered such a big problem. If these two little girls knew that I was powerless, I wouldn't know where to put my face.
Just as Song Qingming was thinking hard and couldn't figure it out, a voice suddenly came in from outside the cave. He opened it and found that it was the clan leader who asked him to go to the meeting room. Song Qingming could only put aside the matter of the spirit beast egg for the time being and walked out of the cave gate.
There will be some problems in the next chapter, everyone will read it later
