"We also need to pay attention to the changes in the Xu family. I'm not just for Yingying in this matter," Xu Ye shook her hand, "The Holy Dragon Clan needs to show their confidence through the pressure on the Xu Family, and also let Xu Hongli understand that the Holy Dragon Clan is still staring at them, as long as it doesn't reach the absolute point, they don't act rashly." ”

Fang Qingxue smiled and shook his hand: "Xu Ye, do you think I will misunderstand you?" I will negotiate with the elders on this matter, but I can't force it to draw up any strength in the end. ”

Xu Ye understood that this was already the biggest promise Fang Qingxue could make to herself.

"Old man...... Master. Now there is no way to raise my realm again. In the face of the huge crisis, Xu Ye once again felt his weakness.

If he now possessed the strength of the peak of the Moon Soul Realm to resist the next top elder of the three major families, it would also be a huge deterrent to them.

"You kid has been getting more and more greedy lately. Thinking about the peak of the Moon Soul Realm now?"

Emperor Zixiao is the least nervous one. For him, he has already witnessed the rise and fall of many human strongholds, and even if the Holy Mountain City is destroyed in front of him, it is just a passing moment in the battle between humans and demons.

"Xu Ye, you have to think about what kind of strength you were just a few months ago, Heavenly Soul Realm! At that time, you were an inconspicuous nobody in the Holy Mountain City. In a few months, he conquered Fang Qingxue one after another, defeated Xu Dahui, and retired the demon army to become the first master of the young generation in Holy Mountain City. ”

"And the methods you're using are quick fixes with huge risks. Even with your talent and my experience, it can be regarded as a quick success. ”

Xu Ye understood that what Emperor Zixiao said was right.

The more you use the ascension exercises with huge consequences, the higher your risk will be if something goes wrong.

Luck doesn't favor you indefinitely. Moreover, the first two leaps of self-tempering have special conditions to cooperate. Emperor Zixiao is not a god either, and the higher he reaches the realm, the more difficult it is to find a way to quickly improve himself.

Leave the top of the Holy Dragon with Fang Qingxue and go to the Xu family.

Now Fang Qingxue's actions are more free. Although her identity is still special, if she really wants to make a move against the Holy Dragon Clan, it is unlikely that she will be the first to make a move.

The impact on the strength of the Holy Dragon Clan is not too great, but it will make them vigilant and usher in the strongest revenge of the Holy Dragon Clan.

The careerists of the three major families are not stupid to this extent.

The situation of the Xu family now is very delicate.

With the identity of the head of the family, Xu Hongli can still integrate more personnel and even elders of the Xu family, and the ancestral house of the Xu family is also owned by them.

With their huge personal prestige, Elder Xu San and Sixth Elder attracted the support of many Xu family forces.

However, in a situation of long-term confrontation, they obviously can't stay in the Xu family's ancestral house for long, and they must have a stronghold that they can rely on. So now it has retreated to the second layer of the family property in the Holy Mountain City.

Xu Ye didn't need to venture into the Xu family to meet Xu Yingying.

"Brother, you're back, why did you come so late? "The battle in the Holy Mountain City has just ended, and all kinds of news are flying all over the sky, Xu Yingying's worries can be imagined.

Fortunately, when the reinforcement team returned to Shengshan City, there was accurate news that she saw that Xu Yegongzi was safe and sound, otherwise she would have been unable to help but look for it.

Xu Ye looked at his sister with tears in her eyes, and smiled and comforted: "Didn't you see it now? Don't cry. ”

Xu Yingying punched him: "People aren't worried about you." There are so many masters of the Shangtu Sect, no less than the entire Holy Mountain City, how dangerous it is for you to rush out. ”

Xu Yezheng said: "You also seem to be safe here." If Xu Hongli really launched a madness, there would be no power in the Holy Mountain City that could intervene. ”

Elder Xu Liu blew his beard: "What are these words, could it be that the third brother and I will still damage the lone seedling of the Xu family's main branch? Although Xu Hongli's kid is good, he is really not the opponent of our two old guys!

Xu Ye saluted to Sixth Elder Xu: "Sixth Elder, we are here for this. Xu Hongli and Shang Tuzong did collude in private, and now that Shang Tuzong's conspiracy has been destroyed, Xu Hongli may be even more difficult to feel at ease. ”

This matter is already a scandal within the Xu family, and Elder Xu Liu also has some hatred for iron not being steel.

"As time goes on, no matter how secretive they do, sooner or later it will come to light. At that time, Xu Hongli will become the sinner of the entire Holy Mountain City, and even the forces that the Xu family has hijacked him now will fight back in an instant. Xu Hongli is not stupid, he will definitely fight to the death before everything happens. ”

"Cut, with him, Xu Hongli's current orders will not be listened to by the insiders of the Xu family, what can he do?"

Elder Xu Liu also heard that the Holy Dragon Clan had suffered huge losses in the battle with the Shang Tu Sect, and the Lord of the Holy Dragon had fallen directly. But Xu Hongli's power in his hands is weaker now. Even they can't solve it, let alone challenge the Holy Dragon Clan.

"He can also muddy the water!Third Elder, Sixth Elder, Xu Ye came with Qingxue today, just to ask the two seniors. If you can't fight Xu Hongli quickly, what can you do to crush him so that he can't move and can't make trouble!"

Elder Xu San stroked his beard and said, "Xu Ye, you just said that the Xu family was troublesome. But now the biggest challenge to the Holy Dragon Clan should be the Qin family and the Mu family. And I must also say that the Holy Mountain City does not exist for the Holy Dragon Clan. With the current strength of the Holy Dragon Clan, can they still subdue the Holy Mountain City and resist the demons and desolate beasts externally!"

Elder Xu San didn't talk as much as the Sixth Elder, but he hit the nail on the head and made it difficult to deal with.

In particular, the sentence that the Holy Mountain City does not exist for the Holy Dragon Clan, and it reflects the thoughts of many top powerhouses.

Elder Xu San didn't say this with any hostility, but pointed out the possible mentality of many people in the Qin family and the Mu family. As the three major families, Elder Xu San may have a deeper understanding of them than Fang Lisong and the others.

Xu Ye knew that now was not the time to hesitate: "The Holy Dragon Clan may not be strong now, but who is the best choice." The Xu family is not suitable at the moment, but the Qin family is on top, and the Mu family is convinced. On the other hand, will the Qin family be convinced?"

Elder Xu San was silent, he knew the thoughts of the Qin family and the Mu family very well about the position of the family's status in the minds of these old guys.

It's just as long as everyone is safe. The relationship between the Qin family and the Mu family is also not bad. But as long as any of them challenged the Holy Dragon Clan and succeeded, would the other family accept to be replaced by a new clan because they were strong enough?

Now the balance of power in the Holy Mountain City is also very delicate.

The vitality of the Holy Dragon clan was greatly damaged, and the Xu family was fighting again. There is no such thing as a restrictive force. It is conceivable that they will start by challenging the Holy Dragon Clan, but in the end, it will completely evolve into the result of the Qin family and the Mu family fighting for hegemony in the Holy Mountain City.

Xu Ye said angrily: "We can even calculate the worst, when the Holy Mountain City finally returns to peace, all the families at the top of the Holy Dragon will be greatly damaged. The Holy Dragon Clan and the three major families will be unable to control the Holy Mountain City for various reasons, and who else will be able to fight against the demons outside the Holy Mountain City at that time?"

Elder Xu San smiled bitterly and said, "If you can gather the elders of the Qin Mu family and let them listen carefully to what you have to say, maybe you can really dispel a lot of their ambitions." ”

"The suppression of ambition lies in checks and balances, not in preaching, and I don't dare to have such extravagant hopes. I just hope that the Xu family can suppress Xu Hongli. ”

"Okay. We two old guys tried our best. But there is nothing we can do about the Qin family and the Mu family, and the Holy Dragon Clan must prove that they still have the strength to stop the threat of demons and desolate beasts outside the city. ”

Elder Xu San was more detached than the others, and he even thought of the threat outside the city.

Xu Ye said: "Since this battle has dealt a huge blow to the strength of the Holy Mountain City, I hope that the Holy Mountain City can directly ask for help from the outside world, and ask all parts of the four fields in the territory to send masters to come to the Holy Mountain City, and at the same time express their attitude to the other eleven big cities, hoping that they can send masters to cooperate with the generals in defense." ”

"Asking for help?"

Everyone present was stunned.

Xu Ye put forward another opinion that seemed very simple, but it was a dead end in everyone's thinking.

Everyone knows that small existential forces such as the Spring and Autumn Kingdom and the Land of Grass Abundance are actually sheltered in the Holy Mountain City. The most powerful demon tribes and desolate beasts outside are all resisted by the Holy Mountain City.

Usually, the masters of these "small places" will take the initiative to come to the Holy Mountain City in order to reach a higher level, and many people in the city will eventually fight a piece of the world and become a generation of masters.

But the city of Holy Mountain never "asked" them for help.

In addition, the 12 Defending Cities are the remnants of humanity, and when dealing with the largest demon invasion, the battle line is not even the sphere of influence of a large defensive city. There is also an over-limit cooperation between major cities.

However, whether it is because there is no precedent and their own "face" problems, there has also been no matter of asking for help from other big cities.

Even Elder Xu San didn't know what the consequences would be if these two measures were really used.

"Boy, wouldn't you be too reckless in these methods? In the Spring and Autumn Kingdom, the land of grass abundance and other places have limited masters, even if you come to help, how much help can be provided. Forget about them, at least it won't be harmful. ”

"But isn't it revealing one's own shortcomings to ask for help from other big cities? The strength of those big cities is not weaker than our Holy Mountain City. Could they also be like Shang Tuzong, who suddenly became ambitious and wanted to swallow us up? ”

Xu Ye said calmly: "That's not bad." The movements of the demons and desolate beasts are unknown, and the sudden appearance of such a powerful thing to plot against the Holy Mountain City again can make the Qin family and the Mu family aware of the external threat, and they need to consider the consequences of the civil war. ”

"Uh, you kid!"

Third Elder Xu and Sixth Elder looked at each other, both a little shocked. They didn't know whether to evaluate Xu Ye's mind as a genius or if he was incorrigibly stupid.
