A few days later, the imperial edict with Zong Tianzi's seal was sent to various immortal families, saying that they wanted yearly offerings, but all the top geniuses and treasures of various sects were listed on it, as well as monks who were proficient in alchemy.
The daimyo Zong family has been in decline since Ninghua Emperor's generation, and now Konghua Emperor succeeded to the throne. Although this young Emperor is extremely talented, but with the strength of one person, it is already difficult to reverse the decline. Lu "Princes" would find excuses at the beginning, but now most of them directly renege on their debts, because they see that the Zong family is unable to pursue them. Who would have thought that the eldest son Xiao would be killed halfway.
The things Zongzixiao wants are almost all ancestral items and treasures of the town. The top alchemists must also be master-level monks, either elders or heads. The imperial edict is to dig out their wealth.
When the edict was received, the factions suddenly understood that they thought Zong Zixiao was a complete lunatic who was obsessed with hatred, but it turned out that every step he took was planning first and planning later, and his thoughtfulness was chilling.
The matter has to start with the dragon meeting where Zongzi Xiao won the championship - it is naturally not the cause of everything, but it is the cause of the outbreak of conflicts accumulated over a century in the world of cultivating immortals. The next ten years will be the darkest ten years in the world of cultivating immortals today, and there will be no day of peace.
At the Jiaolong Meeting, the investigation into the case of the theft of pills by the monks of the Huaying Sect led by Xu Zhinan, who was still the master teacher of the Chunyang Sect at that time, exposed the unknown side of Yan Shu, the newly appointed head of the Wuyun Sect, which caused Yan Shu The dog jumped the wall in a hurry, and several monks died under the whip, including Hua Yuxin, a daughter of the Huaying School who was loved by thousands of people.
Old hatred and new hatred, Huaying faction wanted Yan Shu and Wuyunmen to pay blood debts, Yan Shu escaped and disappeared, Huaying faction went to Wuling several times, and with the secret help of Chunyang Sect, eroded the power of Wuyunmen.
Chunyang Sect and Wuyun Sect were actually a family five hundred years ago. After Jianxiu and Wuxiu separated, they divided the north and the south, ruled Chu together, and have been secretly competing. But they are equal in power and dare not make big moves. At this time, the Chunyang Sect finally waited for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and wanted to take the opportunity to annex the Wuyun Sect.
However, the Wuliang Sect could not pretend to be the rise of the Pure Yang Sect and threaten its own status, so it secretly assisted the Wuyun Sect.
Emperor Ninghua intends to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, let the various factions weaken each other, not only did not come forward to quell the disputes, but instead became ambiguous, causing the world of cultivating immortals to fall into endless struggles.
The change of the situation was caused by Yan Shu again.
A tragedy in the Promise Palace caused the scandal of the Emperor's family to be known to the whole world. Yan Shu's true identity was exposed, he was actually the son of the Yanzhou Lu family who was loved by Emperor Ninghua and was tragically exterminated. He changed his name and appearance and asked Emperor Ninghua to raise his son, all for revenge.
In the end, Zongzi Xiao, who was most likely to succeed the Emperor, escaped from the daimyo, and his life and death were unknown, while Lu Zhaofeng also returned to Wuyunmen.
Lu Zhaofeng's position as the head of the sect did not come from the right path, and many people in the Wuyun Sect were dissatisfied, but the Wuyun Sect without the head and the treasure of the town faction, who was bullied and persecuted, had to accept this stealing. Dan Moxiu.
Lu Zhaofeng's bones are excellent, and he has eaten several high-class human pills. His cultivation base is so deep that few people can match him. He quickly forced the Huaying faction back to southern Fujian, and led the Wuyunmen to fight back, and quickly regained the lost ground .
Coincidentally, the head of the Chunyang Sect passed away, and Xu Zhinan took office in a hurry. Zong Minghe took his eldest son, Zong Heng, to Kunlun to forge swords, but because the empress Li Xiangtong couldn't bear the pain of losing his son, he became depressed and died of illness, so they had to stop. According to Li Xiangtong's last wish, a tomb was ordered for her and the second prince to return to Shushan. After that, a major event that shocked the entire world of cultivating immortals and will be recorded in the annals of history happened—the eldest son Heng killed his father and usurped the throne on the stage of gossip.
Zong Ziheng was a rebellious person, lost all human relations, and the throne was not justified. He had a conflict with the Wuliang faction, which was resolved only with the support of Xu Zhinan and Qi Mengsheng and the mediation of Li Buyu. Zongzi Heng's biological mother, Concubine Shen, also died for unknown reasons Death, how many secrets there are in it, it is not enough for outsiders to know.
Just when the famous sects were overwhelmed, the Wuyun Sect abandoned the belief and honor of the century-old orthodox fairy sect, slaughtered monks wantonly, relied on eating cannibal pills to improve their cultivation, recruited disciples, grew rapidly, and even began to turn against the Pure Yang Sect. territory, and wiped out the Huaying faction.
The world of cultivating immortals came back to their senses and found that Wuyunmen had become a huge monster under their neglect, so the world of cultivating immortals, which had been fighting openly and secretly for a hundred years, was forced to unite to fight against Wuyunmen, which had become a demon sect.
And Zong Zixiao appeared with the ancient divine treasure Xuanyuan Tianji Talisman when Wuyun Sect was at its peak.
The first thing he did was to slaughter Wuyunmen and kill his biological father, Lu Zhaofeng.
As long as there are survivors in Wuyunmen, they will never forget that bloody nightmare for the rest of their lives. Zong Zixiao rode a deadly skeleton warhorse, and appeared in front of the mountain gate alone. Facing thousands of monks from the Wuyun Sect, he uttered wild words, causing countless ridicules, but when he took out the green jade, The treacherous soldier talisman written with red blood suddenly summoned the Yin soldiers all over the mountains and fields, like black clouds overwhelming the city, and no one could laugh anymore.
The Yin soldiers don't eat or drink, don't feel pain or tired, and only follow the order of the Tianji Talisman, turning the Wuyun Gate into a purgatory on earth.
At that time, people thought that he hated Lu Zhaofeng's shameful background and regarded him as a pawn for revenge, and hated Lu Zhaofeng for killing his third sister who married into Wuyunmen.
Now it seems that there is another reason for Zong Zixiao to do this, which is to disintegrate the alliance in the world of cultivating immortals. The world of cultivating immortals is completely unfamiliar with Zongzixiao and has no hatred, but they all lost their fellowmen and territories because of Wuyunmen, so Wuyunmen can make them share the same hatred, but Zongzixiao can't.
Sure enough, once the Wuyun Sect fell, Zong Zixiao didn't take a single cent, and watched all the immortal families pounce on the fat corpses of the Wuyun Sect like wolves and devour their flesh and blood. The five-hundred-year-old family has accumulated such a huge amount of wealth, They bared their fangs at their former allies for an extra bite.
Uneven distribution caused the alliance to fall apart, and even created new enmity with each other. Zong Zixiao was able to break it down one by one. However, the entire world of cultivating immortals has experienced ten years of turmoil and disputes.
They were lucky enough to think that Zong Zixiao came back to seek revenge, they had no grievances with Zong Zixiao, as long as he endured the humiliation and submitted, he would not kill innocent people indiscriminately.
Now this seems to be justified, but in fact, when the edict to dig people's ancestral graves was delivered, they realized that the world of cultivating immortals just came out of the wolf's lair and entered the tiger's lair, and even the food they ate from the Wuyunmen had to be spit out even more. .
In fact, the Demon Lord, who has conquered Kyushu, wanted to search the world through Emperor Zong's edict, because he used the excuse of asking for the yearly confession, and his teacher was famous, and he saved face for the sect who wanted to spend money to save their lives. Kneeling is not so shameful. The forces that want to resist cannot unite them to fight the enemy together.
When the document was drafting, Zong Ziheng was still half lying on the hospital bed, and Zong Zixiao was sitting by the bed, playing with the jade seal, picking and choosing treasures from various sects like ordering food in a restaurant.
The clerk stood aside in a cold sweat.
"I heard that the Wuliang Sect has hidden a few top-quality elixir, but they don't know their names. Does elder brother know?" Zong Zixiao looked at Zong Ziheng with a smile, and looked in a good mood.
Zongzi Heng said indifferently: "I don't know."
"I don't know, what should I do. Let Wuliangpai pay 100 million taels of gold."
The hand that held the pen was shaking.
One hundred million taels of gold, isn't that crazy
"Wuliang faction can't get it out, so we have to use decent treasures to make up for it. If you dare to fool me with some real yuan jade training alchemy, I will make Li Buyu look good." He still remembers that Li Buyu loved to pester his eldest son when he was young Heng, I still feel uncomfortable.
"Giant Spirit Villa, I'm afraid the old owner is too old to get out of bed, so send the young one here."
"yes."
"The cold jade snow spirit pill from the Cangyu Gate is useless to me, but the ice spirit at the bottom of Fengming Lake is a good thing. It's the best thing to fuel the Shennong cauldron. Prepare a thousand catties first."
"… yes."
Zong Ziheng couldn't bear it anymore and said: "Are you forcing the world of cultivating immortals to attack you?"
"The imperial edict was issued by the daimyo Zong family, so why should you attack me? Besides, they owe so many years of offerings, shouldn't they raise interest rates?" Zong Zixiao laughed lowly.
"Unjust is doomed to destruction."
"Tsk tsk, isn't elder brother talking about himself?" Zong Zixiao waved his hand and let the document go down. As soon as the person left, he took his eldest son Heng into his arms and kissed him frivolously, "Are you afraid?"
Zong Ziheng pursed his lips and remained silent.
"Don't be afraid, those idiots can't make a fortune. In order to share the stolen goods of Wuyunmen, they almost fought again, but now it's just a mess." Zong Zixiao took the elder brother's hand and played with the knuckle fingers one by one. When he was a child, he felt that his elder brother's hands were big and powerful. He hugged him, taught him how to practice swords, cooked him delicious food, and put him to sleep. They were all beautiful and powerful hands. It was a little smaller, and he stroked it carefully, even liking the hard calluses on his palm. Then, he inserted his slender fingers between the other's fingers and clasped them together.
Zong Ziheng couldn't break free, so he had to let him hold it.
"I said, if you take good care of me, you can continue to be your Zong Tianzi as you wish. You don't need to worry about the rest." He looked at Zong Ziheng's soft lips, his heart moved, he lowered his head and wanted to taste it.
Zong Ziheng abruptly turned his face away.
"turn around."
After a moment of silence, Zong Zixiao's tone was threatening: "Don't make me say it a second time."
Zong Ziheng took a deep breath, and slowly turned his stiff neck.
"Don't act like this. You killed my mother, and I will save your life, so that you can become the emperor above tens of thousands of people just by opening your legs. You should be so grateful." Zong Zixiao Every time he uttered evil words, he could get twisted pleasure when he looked at Zong Ziheng's pale face full of humiliation.
What to do, he was framed, betrayed, and everything he cherished was taken away, and he was still reluctant to kill the person he hated the most, so he could only pinch him in the palm of his hand and torture him carefully, how painful he was, he wanted him the most Dear brother, bear it together!
He bit Zong Ziheng's lips, the kiss was not rushed, just savoring it leisurely, that's the confidence that only those who have ownership have.
When he had kissed enough, he let go of the man in his arms, and frivolously pinched Zong Ziheng's waist: "Heal well, I can't bear it for a few days." Now just seeing Zong Ziheng makes his mouth dry.
Zong Ziheng formed fists with both hands to barely hide his trembling.
Zong Zixiao said to himself again: "Of course, your worry is not unreasonable. Sooner or later, they will unite against me. Although I may not lose, it is tiring to kill so many people, so , I want to break through the ninth heaven of Zongxuan sword, and by that time, no one will be able to threaten me." He gently stroked his elder brother's cheek, his tone was gentle, but the words he uttered were creepy, "Even if they It's much easier to kill them all."
Zong Ziheng said solemnly: "You are already invincible, what else do you want?"
Zong Zixiao looked at his elder brother, the thing he wanted the most was now being hugged in his arms obediently, what else did he want? He wants absolute and unquestionable power. During the ten years of ups and downs, he has tasted all the sufferings of the world. He knows better than anyone that power determines everything. If he has it, he must hold on to it, because wolves, tigers and leopards are secretly waiting everywhere.
He doesn't believe in love, he doesn't believe in righteousness, he only believes in self-importance.
