Under the command of the Wolf King, the general is the real power. He not only leads the army, but also has a corresponding jurisdiction. It is equivalent to the imperial officials of the empire, and is actually in a semi-independent state. Among them, the most powerful person even held several general positions, and his territory was several times larger than others.
The position of a general means real power and territory. As a reward for this, all the generals under the Wolf King's command turned red-eyed.
After the generals retreated, the elder who suggested the reward did not leave, but stayed. The Wolf King said, "Is it worth it to pay such a high price for the sake of two incompetent little guys and an unidentified behind-the-scenes conspiracy?"
The elder seemed confident, and said, "It's totally worth it. Great chief, a human race once said that if you want to keep the wolves bloody, you need to throw them a piece of fresh meat from time to time and let them compete with each other."
The wolf king suddenly became angry. These words were very insulting to werewolves who regarded all kinds of wolves as half of the same clan.
However, the elder looked calm and said: "Great chief, if you look at it from the perspective of other races, this sentence really makes sense. You have more and more generals, and your territory is becoming more and more stable. But in the past half a year, you Don’t you think the situation is too peaceful? External development is slowing down, and the enemies inside the territory have been almost cleaned up. To be offensive, these generals are already full. And a wolf that is full has no fighting power of."
The wolf king nodded slowly, and said, "That's right, as long as the gap is widened among them, those who fall behind will feel hungry again even if they are full."
"The great chief is wise."
The wolf king pondered for a moment, then said: "Go and contact some mercenaries and let them try to bring back a demon descendant from the old spider's territory. I'm useful."
"Great Chief, are you planning to fight the Spider Emperor?"
The wolf king sneered, and said, "There are more and more new generals. If we don't fight that old spider, should I use my own territory to divide them?"
"But… "
"Even if there is any problem, isn't there still Zhang Buzhou?" The wolf king said indifferently.
The elder werewolf's heart shuddered, and he vaguely thought of a possibility, so he didn't dare to say anything.
The wolf king said again: "By the way, there is one more thing, you go and do it."
The werewolf elder approached the wolf king, and after listening to the instructions carefully, he couldn't help showing a little shocked expression. After taking the order, he left in a hurry. In the totem hall, only the wolf king was left.
In the remote southern land, after firing the primordial spear, Qianye's aura suddenly dropped, and he felt a little sluggish. Yetong supported him, looked into the sky, and said, "What was that thing just now?"
Qianye shook his head, "I don't know, but it looks like some kind of secret method of spying from a distance, and it probably also combines the secret technique of derivation from heaven, otherwise it would be impossible to find us like this."
"Is it related to the one in the sea?"
Qianye thought about it carefully, and said: "No. This eye reveals the power of darkness, and it has a strong smell of evil, corruption and dampness, which is completely different from the breath of the deep sea. I think it's probably from the wolf king's side. Someone. Maybe someone who is good at deriving secrets, and the level is extremely high."
Yetong was slightly worried, and said, "Did you use your hole card just now? Does it matter?"
Qianye smiled slightly, and said: "It's okay. I'm full of energy now, and I'll re-condense a round of the original gun in two days. The guy spying on us is quite powerful. If I don't use the original gun, I'm afraid I won't be able to kill him." he."
"So what do we do now?"
"Since he was discovered, of course he packed up his things and prepared to run."
The closer it is to the hinterland of the East China Sea, the more prosperous it will be. Among the vast territories occupied by the human race in the East China Sea, the north-central part is the most prosperous. There are three large-scale cities gathered here. Two are built along the sea, and the other is located in the center of the inland, connecting the coast and the inland as one. One.
In terms of prosperity, the farther south you go, the more desolate you are. When you go to a remote place, you often have to be separated by hundreds of miles to find a small town. Interestingly, starting from the central area, the further to the northwest, the less populated. On the northwest edge is the ancient totem battle castle of the wolf king and the location of the werewolf tribe.
That area was originally quite prosperous, but since the Wolf King entered the East China Sea, it has gradually withered.
The two coastal cities, one named Tingchao and the other named Guanlan, are the main settlements of the human race. In each of the two cities, there are several big families, which affect the operation of the city openly and secretly.
Among the five major families in Guanlan City, the Xue family has a place.
The Xue family's ancestral house is located in the northwest corner of Guanlan City, occupying four full blocks, which can be called a city within a city. In the middle of the house, there is a male building, which is the ancestral hall where the Xue family worshiped their ancestors. At this moment, the ancestral hall was surrounded by fireworks, Xue Wu and Xue Ding knelt in the center of the hall, not daring to raise their heads. In front of them were hundreds of ancestral tablets, layered on top of the altar. Kneeling here, no matter who you are, you will feel that you are being watched by countless ancestors of the Xue family.
In this place where the ancestors and heroic spirits inhabit, the blessing and protection of descendants are everywhere.
At this moment, there was a commotion from the side of the ancestral hall, which made the old man guarding the main hall unhappy. In a blink of an eye, more than ten people rushed into the main hall from the side door and ran towards the gate. Two young men in the crowd were carrying an old man, with anxious expressions on their faces, they kept shouting, "Hurry up, find a holy doctor!"
The old man looked sluggish, his chest was covered in blood, and he was still spraying blood from time to time. It's just that the blood he spewed was so purple that it was black, with a strong stench, making people want to vomit.
This group of people rushed out of the ancestral hall and flew away. At this time, another middle-aged man entered from the side of the ancestral hall. The old man in the main hall of the ancestral hall grabbed him and asked, "What happened to the great elder?"
The middle-aged man bowed to the old man, said "I have met the fifth elder", then stared at Xue Ding and Xue Wu, and said bitterly: "It's not the fault of these two ignorant guys! I don't know them What did the wolf king actually do? The wolf king actually invited the sky eye to search for the murderer. If the great elder hadn't also mastered the way of deduction of heavenly secrets, personally guarding the ancestral hall and ancestral land, blocking the sky eye's exploration sense, he didn't know to give Xue What a disaster the family has caused! But how can the old monster of Tianyan be easy to deal with, and the great elder is also seriously injured, maybe it will leave hidden dangers, alas!"
The Fifth Elder sighed, but there was no other way. The middle-aged man glared at Xue Wu, and said: "I thought you had some talents and talents, and would be the pillar of the future family. I didn't expect you to be so nonsense, hmph!"
Xue Wu bowed his head and said nothing, without making any arguments. Xue Ding's head was so low that it almost touched the ground, and he didn't dare to say a word.
The middle-aged man snorted and walked away. The Fifth Elder sighed, and said, "Xiao Wu, your Ninth Uncle is also doing it for your own good. Don't take it to heart because he has always had such a temper. But you really didn't handle things properly this time. If the old murderous Sky Eye Use the secret method to search again, I am afraid that the great elder will be more dangerous than good. Fortunately, God bless my Xue family, for some reason, Tianyan only activated the secret method once."
Xue Wu nodded, but remained silent.
Xue Dong took a sneak peek at Xue Wu, finally gritted his teeth, and said: "This matter has nothing to do with elder brother, I caused trouble first, and elder brother wanted to help me, so..."
After Xue Ding finished speaking, the Fifth Elder said indifferently: "The matter has been clarified, but the decision of the Presbyterian Council will not be changed. Xue Wu still has to retreat in the ancestral hall for three years, and within three years he is not allowed to leave the ancestral hall for half a step. "
"Why! It's all my fault!" Xue Ding cried.
A majestic voice came from behind him: "It's to protect Xue's family and Xiao Wu!"
When Xue Ding looked back, he was taken aback, hurriedly saluted, and said: "Great grandfather... no, patriarch."
The old man who walked into the ancestral hall had a majestic appearance, his face was full of red light, and although his beard and hair were all white, his eyes were as sharp as real. He glared at Xue Ding and said, "It doesn't matter whose fault it is. The important thing is that if the wolf king knows that Gary's death is related to our Xue family, then he will have an excuse. Zhang Buzhou wouldn't say a word even if his family was uprooted."
Xue Ding was indignant: "But we are humans, and his wolf king is still a foreign race after all! Why does Zhang Tianwang watch the foreign race oppress our human race like this! If it is for tolerance, this is a bit too much, right?"
"Zhang Tianwang... Hey! Even if Zhang Buzhou really becomes the heavenly king, do you think there will be any changes? In his heart, he only has himself, and it doesn't make any difference whether he is a human or a wolf. It just depends on whether he can serve him faithfully!"
"Well, Lord Patriarch, the eldest brother is facing the wall in the ancestral temple, what should I do? When will I return to the ancient totem battle castle?"
The old man snorted and said, "Go back? Who said you're going back?"
"Ah, if I don't go back, it will attract suspicion."
The Fifth Elder said at this time: "Do you think there is still less suspicion now? You think you are doing everything seamlessly, but the Wolf King has long since found out that Gary was following you before going out. Reasonably, they will find you. In the future With the wolf king's method, you can survive it?"
Xue Ding's expression finally changed. He has become the adopted son of the wolf king, so he knows the methods of the wolf king. Even if you can get through it, you will be useless.
The fifth elder said again: "Since Gary was actually killed by the young couple, why don't we act first and take them down, go to the Wolf King to receive the reward, and take the matter out of our Xue family by the way." come out."
After hearing this, Xue Wu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly raised his head and said, "It's absolutely impossible!"
The Fifth Elder felt displeased when he was contradicted, and said: "Why not? Since he used such means to deal with you, our Xue family can naturally deal with him too! Why, why don't you still want to thank them for not killing them?"
Xue Wudao: "No, I'm afraid that the Xue family will get into trouble."
The Fifth Elder was stunned, and then laughed loudly, "How many years will our Xue family inherit, and will it fall into the hands of two little guys? Didn't you say that the man and woman are only at the twelfth or third level?"
Xue Ding also had to say: "Fifth Elder, those two people are very powerful, and their combat power far exceeds their cultivation."
The Fifth Elder snorted, and said, "No matter how much your combat power surpasses your cultivation, it's impossible to surpass your great-grandfather, right?"
This time, Xue Wu and Xue Ding were silent. The Xue family's long-distance generals are only one line away, and no matter what, they can overwhelm Qianye and Yetong. However, this incident did not make people happy.
The old patriarch coughed and said: "There is no point in arguing about these things. From today on, Xue Ding will stay in the ancestral hall to practice in seclusion, and he will leave after three years. To outsiders, he said that he has never seen the whereabouts of the two of them. "
At this moment, an attendant rushed over and said quickly: "There is news from the branch of Lingang City that someone is asking for care in the name of the two young masters."
