Chapter 473: Chapter 336: The Ancestor is Coming Out!
Last chapter[Li n of Longxi]I made a mistake in the name of the family head. Li Yifeng is the former family head and has already passed away. The new family head is called Li Yihong, and it has been corrected.
………
Upon hearing Li Yihong’s words, everyone present furrowed their brows.
They exchanged nces, not knowing what kind of eye contact they were making, but no one spoke up.
“Everyone.”
Li Yihong took in the expressions of those present. He did not show any reaction but continued, “Our six great ns have established our families through martial arts and have a long-standing heritage. During the prosperous period of the royal court, even the emperor had to give us some face… However, Wang Hou took advantage of our ancestors’ inability to act and repeatedly suppressed us.”
In the room, there were a total of seven people, including Li Yihong.
Five of them belonged to the current generation of family heads from the five great families: Taiyuan City’s Wang n, Fan Yang’s Lu n, Qing He’s Cui n, Xing Yang’s Zheng n, and Fufeng’s Ma n.
These five great families, together with Li n of Longxi, were known as the six great families of Da Xia.
And the seventh person…<div>
He was quite interesting.
He was the current family head of the “Wu n of Tai Lake”.
In terms of strength and heritage, the Wu n of Tai Lake was not inferior to the six great families… In fact, tracing back two thousand years, the Wu n’s lineage was even older than that of the six great families. They originated from the ‘Ji’ surname, with the “Wu Kingdom” as their family name, and were the direct descendants of the Huang Emperor Xuanyuan n.
The ancient “Wu Kingdom” was located around today’s Wuxi, Jiangsu Province, hence the name “Wu n of Tai Lake”.
However, the development of the “Wu n of Tai Lake” was not smooth in ancient times. Although there were glorious times, there were also various lows … Therefore, it was not among the ancient “Five Surnames and Seven Hopes”!
It wasn’t untilter…
The Wu n’s mainline, at that time an official of the Yuan Dynasty’s Ministry of Rites, “Wu Guangdou” brought 6,000 of his n members to sail to Liuli, after which the Wu n of Tai Lake settled in “Liuqiu (now Tai Province)” and Xiangjiang.
At that time, “Xiangjiang” was part of “Lingnan” and was still a barrennd.
Therefore, even now,
The so-called “Six Great ns of Da Xia” still looked down on the “Wu n of Tai Lake” to some extent. Although they knew in their hearts that the Wu n had developed rapidly in Tai Province and Xiangjiang in recent years, and their family wealth was more robust than that of the six great ns.
It was only because the six great families were nning to deal with “Xu Yang” and the matter was considered dangerous, that they invited the Wu n to join them.
The current family head of the Wu n, Wu Wenqing.
This guy was a shrewd man and clearly understood the intentions of these families.
They just wanted to drag his “Wu n” into the water and share the risk together!
Seeing that nobody spoke up, Wu Wenqing stroked his beard and said with a smile, “Patriarch Li, fellow patriarchs, I know a thing or two about the news from the maind, and I have heard of this Supreme Sage Xu… As far as I know, he is the current leader of the Jingming Sect and is a part of the martial world.”
“It’s a great fortune for our Da Xia martial world to have such a young and talented master like him. Why are you all worried about him?”
Upon hearing this statement, the dissatisfaction of the other family heads was immediately aroused.
However, they were all high-ranking individuals and wouldn’t show their displeasure too overtly even if they were dissatisfied. Fufeng’s Ma n Patriarch, Ma Baoguo, said, “Patriarch Wu’s words are wrong… Although Xu Yang is from the martial world, he never abides by its principles.”
“Lu Shan Sect and Jingming Secte from the same origin. He destroyed the Lu Shan Sect just for the position of Heavenly Master. If it’s for other interests, who knows if he will take action against other forces?”<div>
Fufeng’s Ma n was also an ancient family.
Its surname origin could be traced back to “Ying Surname”. ording to the “New Book of Tang”, the Ma n “originates from the Ying Surname. Empress Yi’s descendants, Zhao Wang Zi Sha, was a general of King Hui. He was given the title of ‘Horse Servant’ andter his descendants adopted it as their surname, settling in Handan City.”
In the history of the Ma n of Fufeng, there were powerful generals like Zhao Mu; Sima Qian’s “Historical Records” also highly recognized the Ma n’s military capabilities.
During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Western Han, the Ma n’s Ma Tong was granted nobility due to his suppression of the Crown Prince’s rebellion. Heter made remarkable achievements in the fight against the Xiongnu. At that time, the Ma n of Fufeng became an influential family due to their illustrious military achievements, and they were considered a powerful n.<div>
Fufeng was a county,
It belonged to Baoji City in Shanxi Province and was adjacent to Longxi’s Li n. Thus, the rtionship between the Ma n and Li n was very close. They had many business coborations, and their younger generations often married among ns, making them almost like one family.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Ma Baoguo himself was also a formidable warrior with his cultivation reaching the peak of the Martial Arts Heavenly Being Realm. His unique “Lightning Five Consecutive Legs” technique was as fast as lightning, earning him the title of the “Northwestern Shadowless Leg”.
Hearing Ma Baoguo’s words, Wu Wenqing couldn’t help butugh, “We are all martial artists. We should be well aware of the grievances between the Lu Shan Sect and Jingming Sect… Twenty years ago, the struggle for the Daoist leadership was far more intense! If it wasn’t for Supreme Sage Qingxu Xu Zhiyuan’s fake death escape and the cultivation of such a strange person like Xu Yang, our Da Xia martial world would have lost the Jingming Sect by now… Now that Xu Yang has retaliated, he only eliminated the chief culprit of the Lu Shan Sect while sparing themon disciples. He has already shown great mercy and righteousness!”
Ma Baoguo wanted to say something,
But Wu Wenqing just stood up and said directly, “Fellow patriarchs, I understand where you all stand… However, my Wu n has already devoted itself tomerce, and most of our disciples within the n have focused on studying trade. Our martial arts have declined… The elders in my family are of old age and are enduring inside caverns; they can’t participate in your plotting.”
He bowed his fists to everyone, said a word of “farewell” and turned to leave.
You guys never included my Wu n before.
Now you want my Wu n to share the risks with you?
Dream on!
“You…”
Ma Baoguo was somewhat angry and tried to stand up but was stopped by Li Yihong. It was only when Wu Wenqing left that Ma Baoguo asked with confusion, “Brother Li, why did you stop me? We are secretly plotting today. If Wu Wenqing leaks everything, it will surely attract Xu Yang’s attention…”
Li Yihong, however,ughed and said, “Wu Wenqing is a wise man. Since he chose to stand by, he will not be talkative… Everyone, I still stand by what I said before, that Da Xia already has one Wang Hou, and we absolutely cannot allow another Xu Yang to rise!”<div>
Seeing that everyone was still unmoved, Li Yihong frowned and immediately threw out a massive bombshell!
“Dealing with Xu Yang is not my idea, but the idea of my Li n’s ancestor.”
He carefully observed the expressions of the other five n leaders, saying, “Now the world is different from a month ago, and my ancestor said… when necessary, they cane out of the secret realm.”
“Oh?”
The other n leaders appeared surprised on the surface, but in reality…
They were not really surprised!
Apparently.
They knew about this matter.
As one of the “six great families of Da Xia,” which family doesn’t have an old ancestor?
Ma Baoguo, the leader of the Ma n,ughed, “Brother Li is right. Xu Yang is arrogant for his age. If we don’t suppress him, I’m afraid he will be another noblelord in the future… ”
The other n leaders all started to speak up.
In fact, for them, Xu Yang is not a threat now.
He is just a youngster.<div>
A Supreme Sage in the Divine Transcendence Realm is utterly insignificant to the six great families.
The horrifying part is the power behind Xu Yang.
ording to the information of the six great families, there is now a Ghost Immortal protecting Xu Yang, and he also controls the Xi Xia Ghost Market… The most crucial point is that his cultivation speed is too fast. If he were to seed in bing the Heavenly Master of the Jingming Sect, it wouldn’t take many years for him to be a Divine Master of thend!
As a Heavenly Master, once he bes a Divine Master, hisbat strength would inevitably be among the most elite of the Divine Masters.
By then…
If he colludes with the nobles, what would be of it?
The six n leaders conspired for a full three hours, and until they had breakfast after sunrise, Li Yihong finally said, “In that case… on the eighth of August, I’ll await your good news at the Xishan Wanshou Pce.”
Ma Baoguo, the leader of the Ma n, assured him with a smile, “Brother Li, rest assured. By then, our six great families will advance and retreat together. Whoever betrays us will be attacked by the group!”
The crowd dispersed.
Li Yihong then left the n leader’s residence and came to the cave in the Li n’s back mountain.
He knelt outside the mountain wall and reported the situation.
From within the mountain wall, a powerful true meaning of martial arts was transmitted, faintly saying, “Eighth of August… Eighth of August…”
“It’s been 600 years, and it’s time for me toe out and go for a walk.”<div>
Other n leaders returned to their ns on the same day, and they also visited their ancestors for the first time. All the ancestors passed their thoughts.
Time flew by, and it was the sixth of August.
On this day, Xu Yang came to the Xishan Wanshou Pce along with Tu Xiaoyu and Long Xiaoxue, the two great demons.
They saw that the whole Xishan Wanshou Pce was immersed in immense joy. The valuable red carpet stretched from the mountain gate all the way to Xishan Town 10 kilometers away, and even the billboards on both sides of the road had been changed!
The Xishan Wanshou Pce is going to have a “Heavenly Master,” which is not only a great event for Jingming Sect!
For the local government, it also holds extraordinary significance. Naturally, the government will fully support it.
“Xu Yang, you’re here?”
Xu Zhiyuan had been staying in Wanshou Pce for the past few days. Upon hearing the news, he found Xu Yang with a smile and said, “The promotion ceremony to the rank of Heavenly Master is almost prepared, and I think I’ve invited everyone I should have.”
“Besides, your ritual clothing… should be finished by tomorrow.”
After everything was said and done.
Xu Zhiyuan nced at Xiao Xue and Xiao Yu behind Xu Yang and asked curiously, “Xu Yang, who are these two women? Where are my granddaughters-inw?”
Xu Yangughed as he introduced them, “Grandpa, this is Tu Xiaoyu, the Demon King of Hn Mountain. She practices the art of demonic immortal inheritance, and I suppose she could be considered your granddaughter-inw… And this is… ”
“There’s no need to introduce me.”
Before Xu Yang could introduce her, Long Xiaoxue stepped forward, looked Xu Zhiyuan up and down, and said, “Xu Zhiyuan, I’ve seen you… When you first joined Wanshou Pce, you were often punished by your master to stand beside the octagonal well. Back then, you were young and afraid of the evil dragon in the well. You would cry when they made you stand.”
Xu Zhiyuan: “…”
Hisplexion changed dramatically, and he looked at Long Xiaoxue in shock. “Who are you? How do you know about my childhood?”
Long Xiaoxue: “I am the evil dragon in the octagonal well… ”
As they were chatting here,
suddenly, a panicky figure ran in from outside.
It was Li Yuanchang.
He shouted, “Supreme Sage Qingxu, something terrible has happened. Fang Wei, the sessor of the martial world’s Baixiao Sheng, just posted on the martial world’s forum, saying that the ancestors of the six great families are about toe out… They n to sabotage your promotion ceremony to the rank of Heavenly Master!”
