Chapter 1: Cutting the Mountain
The crowd disappeared without a trace in an instant, and even those who broke their legs because of jumping off the city walls would crawl back to their family stations with their arms instead of their legs; From beginning to end, Ye Qi had no intention of pursuing, he just looked at the embarrassed appearance of these people, as well as ...... Reluctance to give up the gold, silver, jewelry, and magical items around him.
Or rather, greed.
Even if he didn't use the [Blind Fighting Perception] induction, Ye Qi could feel the hot gaze that these people were throwing here in their respective family residences, which was more fierce than the noon sun, but compared to the brilliance of the noon sun, what they had was indescribable darkness.
The concept that was distorted under the rule of the Seven Great Families has long been ingrained.
Ye Qi glanced at the corpses under the city walls that had not yet had time to be cleaned - in addition to the people who had participated in the battle before, there were many people who died last night, and it was not him or his servants or mounts who did it, and those wounds were all caused by swords or some abilities.
Obviously, when he searched the ancient castle of the Seven Great Families last night, some incidents had also happened here.
For example, the re-selection of one or several powerful families to replace the original Seven Great Families, the corpses of many uniform costumes, made Ye Qi more sure of his guess.
And, of course, there is a lot less volatility!
At least a third of the number of these fluctuations is gone compared to the memory of yesterday's first arrival......
In this regard, Ye Qi smiled coldly.
Now that all the seven major families have been eradicated, it is naturally impossible for Ye Qi to let a family similar to the seven major families appear, whether it is for the sake of future migration plans. Or to make Avro. Dick was in charge of the Autumn Woods. It has already been decided who the future owner of the Autumn Forest District will be.
Of course. If you insist on treating the two as one, Ye Qi will not deny it; After all, Avero. Dick was able to become the ruler of the Autumn Forest, not only because of the other party's close relationship with him, but also because of the fact that Avro. Dick was not opposed to the migration of the Autumn Woods, and even greatly agreed.
Therefore, everything in front of you naturally does not need to appear.
And the way to stop it all. There are many, the simplest is to expel or kill all the people in front of you; However, Ye Qi did not intend to do so.
Because, he has an easier way -
"What does this demonic creature want to do?"
Hiding in the family building, as if with more peace of mind, the masters of the various families in the outer city of Dry Forest City were looking at Ye Qi standing on the city wall through the crack in the door and window.
They thought Ye Qi would say something, at least. Say things like, 'I'm in charge here' or 'It's my territory, I'm all in charge'—to that. Although these families are very regretful, they do not dare to object; Because, the scene of Ye Qi facing the Seven Great Families last night had already made them understand how useless their resistance was, especially the news from the border of Qiulin District, which made them understand their current situation.
In fact, it was precisely because of the news from Red Leaf City on the border of the Autumn Forest District last night that ignited the battle between the families in the outer city of the Dry Forest City - the grudge between the previous families, the lack of suppression by the Seven Great Families, and the coveting of the position of the Seven Great Families, made them start to fight to the death.
Everything was so sudden, but everything was so natural.
After all, for Qiulin District, this kind of family strife is completely customary - because all kinds of things happen every year, every quarter, and even every month.
And no matter what kind of thing it is, the final result is born because of interests!
They can't kill a powerful existence like Ye Qi, but they can kill an existence similar to themselves around them, and the reduction of each such similar existence will be the greater the benefit in the end - they firmly believe that Ye Qi needs a temporary manager, and as long as he shows real ability, then it is not impossible to go further.
Therefore, such a battle is completely a battle of life and death.
In such a battle, life becomes like waste paper, which can be discarded at any time, and like the waste paper, it is wantonly thrown to the ground and trampled by others.
Eventually, overnight, the population of the outer city of Dry Forest plummeted by a third.
And the remaining families also suffered heavy losses, and some families were left with only a shell; Otherwise, there would not have been such a robbery - people who have no restraints and some ideas, they would rather take risks to get a fortune and then go away to try to make a comeback.
Because, they know very well that there is no benefit in staying for themselves.
It's just that what they obviously didn't expect was that there were too many people with such thoughts, and even some families that were still intact joined them.
In fact, these families also have a similar idea - the wealth in front of them is enough for the entire family to obtain a qualitative improvement, so why should they stay here and beg for mercy?
And undoubtedly, the intervention of these families that have remained relatively intact has made those families who originally wanted to stay away have to join in - hatred always appears at such a critical moment, and what the enemy wants to obtain, we naturally have to desperately stop it, even if it is not beneficial to us.
Therefore, when Ye Qi appeared, the big scuffle that he saw happened.
In the same way, Ye Qi's appearance also sobered up these people who participated in the big melee, and reminded them of their original purpose.
But this confusion, of their own making, made them tremble; So much so that they didn't even have the conversation they had agreed on last night, and they ran back to their family residences, and some even ran out of the Dry Forest City and disappeared into the wilderness.
Of course, escaping is not about survival.
Don't forget that those families outside the Dry Forest City, they need to look up to any of the Dead Forest City families on weekdays, but when this Dry Forest City family is 'expelled'. These families. They don't mind falling into the well—all the families in the depths of the Autumn Forest know it. The real danger of being 'expelled' comes from these families outside the city, who will bite their prey like hyenas until they swallow the last trace of each other's flesh.
If, if it weren't for these families outside the city, at least more than half of the families in the urban area outside the city would have fled; Because, they participated in the competition for 'Ye Qi's wealth'. I didn't think Ye Qi would let them go; So, at this time, they are even more frightened.
However, such a frightened heart, as time passed, Ye Qi's indifference turned into curiosity.
"What the hell is he doing?"
All the clansmen who could see Ye Qi standing on the walls of the inner city were thinking like this, but of course, it was more of a curse in their hearts, if they could. They desperately hope that Ye Qi will be like this' because of the continuous conquest. And the serious injuries did not heal' died.
In fact, Ye Qi's appearance at this time is very similar to some people who have relapsed from serious injuries.
If it weren't for the fact that there was no way to confirm it, these people from the urban families outside the Dry Forest City would have already rushed up.
Not only were the people of these families curious, but Groening was also wondering what his master was doing. However, unlike the malicious speculation of the various families, Groening was only very innocent of curiosity, as simple as the simplicity of choosing carrots, lentils, and rabbit meat.
And Ye Qi could feel the malice of the families in the outer city of the dry forest city behind him, and he could also feel the curiosity of his mount; However, Ye Qi ignored it.
At this moment, all his efforts were placed on the seven castles in the distance in front of him...... Or, more accurately, a mountain range with seven castles!
As for what to pay attention to?
That's because Ye Qi wants to cut this mountain range apart!
With the Enma Knife in his hand, he slashed through the mountain range, letting the cold wind in the winter forest area behind the mountain range blow into here, and let the green grass in the grassland area spread towards here.
Only in this way can we break the twisted shackles of the Autumn Forest Area!
These people who have never left the Autumn Forest District will never know the vastness and beauty of the outside world, they can only survive by relying on what they see in front of them, what the Seven Great Families have given them - it is like a rope with a dead buckle, the more they struggle, the tighter it becomes, but if they are cut together......
Then everything is different!
Of course, Ye Qi did this definitely not out of pity, but because he wanted to do it.
Moreover, he was sure that if he did, his plans would go much smoother in the future—seeing is always good for being strong.
And what could be more shocking than a severed mountain?
However, it is definitely not an easy thing to cut off a mountain range, even with Ye Qi's strength at the moment, it also requires some preparation and planning.
With a long breath, Ye Qi looked at the mountains in front of him, and the immortal-level [perception] allowed him to clearly see the dead grass on the mountains - because, because of the seven ancient castles, the vitality of the entire mountain range was gathered inside the ancient castle, even at the foot of the mountain.
Therefore, the depths of the entire autumn forest area are called the dry forest city.
Of course, the reason why the Seven Great Families did this was nothing more than to gain more surging vitality - whether they wanted to prolong their lifespan or cultivate and fight, sufficient vitality was essential.
It's like the Wizard's Crown. Corona Day] attached to the [Vitality Replacement]; It's just that, as the successors of one of the wizarding emperors, they obviously didn't learn such a skill, or lost it because of the war; In short, according to Ye Qi, such an arrangement is just specious.
The effect will definitely be there, but there will be many more missing.
Of course, this did not conflict with what he was doing now, once the mountain range was broken, everything would return to normal, whether it was on the mountain, below the mountain, or the depths of the entire Autumn Forest District, it would become alive again.
Call!
exhaled a breath of turbid air in his lungs, and Ye Qi's vision became clearer and clearer-
Withered grass and rocks are just like putting them in front of you.
And the unique texture between the mountains is like the annual rings of trees, which are fully revealed.
Ye Qi's gaze continued to follow these textures, and deeper, when the white of snowflakes appeared in front of his eyes, and the green covered in snow. Ye Qi closed his eyes.
And then. The next moment. Ye Qi closed his eyes and suddenly opened-
Boom!
In the loud sound of unsheathing, with the [Enma. Extreme Slash] Huge sword, the Enma Knife was swung out by Ye Qi; It's no different from the swinging of the knife that you practice on weekdays.
However, it seems to have a different charm.
The trajectory of the knife became more direct, but it did not lack splendor and mystery, as if it was followed by countless knives, and as if countless knives were combined into one knife.
Airplanes!
On a huge half-moon-shaped knife that clings to the ground. There was a faint and undetectable vibration, which made the already sharp knife become more and more unstoppable.
Among the seven castles, the castle of the Solo family bore the brunt of the attack, and was swept by the huge sword without making any sound, like a red-hot knife cutting butter.
Not only the castle of the Solo family, but also the mountain range where the castle sits.
Silently, it was swept by.
Click!
The raised Enma Knife slowly returned to its sheath, and with a crisp sound, Ye Qi loaded all the surrounding gold, silver, jewelry, and magical equipment into the shard—compared to the caution when carrying books. This time, the loading was very straightforward. It wasn't even a building that didn't fit into the shards at all, it was just left in an open space.
Only those magical equipment were treated carefully by Ye Qi.
And after all this, Ye Qi jumped on Groning's back, and suddenly, Groning, who had been waiting for a long time, couldn't wait to take off into the air and quickly disappeared into the sky.
Ye Qi's departure made the families in the outer city of Dry Forest City look at each other, and they cautiously walked out of the family station, and then, looked at each other.
However, soon, a smart person reacted and quickly rushed towards the inner city.
Once the first person appeared, it was like dominoes, and it had a knock-on effect, and countless people rushed there thinking about it.
"From now on, this will be our family's!"
The first clansman to climb the walls of the inner city shouted like this.
"Nonsense, this place will be ours!"
However, the people of another family obviously would not agree with such a statement.
"It's ours here!"
And obviously, his statement would not be approved by the other families, so a chaotic argument began again, and when this chaotic argument was about to turn into the beginning of another battle, a voice suddenly appeared-
"Have you forgotten the sword drawn by the previous Excellency?"
This is a middle-aged man, he pointed to the castle of the Solo family in front of him, and said with a frown.
"Of course, not forgotten! We can see it clearly! However, we also know that His Excellency does not need to be here, so ...... This will be ours! ”
Opposite the middle-aged man, another elderly man said with a smile.
"That's right!"
"That's it!"
……
As soon as the old man's words fell, there were countless echoes, and without exception, they all had that excited smile on their faces.
Perhaps, in their minds, they have begun to fantasize that they are like the original Seven Great Families to rule the entire Autumn Forest District!
"Do you think that Your Excellency's drawing of the sword is so simple?"
It was still the middle-aged man, he looked coldly at the high-ranking people of the various families in front of him who had become obsessed because of the things he had not yet arrived, especially when there were a few of them who were his allies, his face couldn't help but look difficult - from the battle he witnessed last night, the news he got later, and the slash he had just made in the face of Ye Qi, he was extremely shocked.
In particular, the knife that Ye Qi had just slashed out, in his opinion, apart from fear, there was only fear left, even if it was an existence at the peak of the solar level to face such a knife...... No, he doesn't need to face it, as long as he is slightly rubbed on the edge, he will definitely be finished.
There is no doubt about it!
And he believes that he is not the only one who has this feeling, the other people present are people of similar strength, and they can't not feel this way.
However, it is really stupid for these families to still obsessively fight for those false things here.
"What else is there but that simple?"
It's the old man again. With that smiling expression as well. Looking at the middle-aged man in front of him. He stretched out his arms, looked around, like an otter that had emerged from the water, and continued: "Do you want to say that the Lord cut the castle or the mountains under the castle?" ”
Suddenly, the upper echelons of the surrounding families let out loud mockery.
"No kidding, your Excellency is powerful. It's something we can see, but it's absolutely impossible to cut ......."
Amid the ridicule around him, the old man saluted the people who supported him in the tradition peculiar to the Autumn Forest District, and then began to point at the middle-aged man and shouted loudly.
The voice was so sharp that it made my eardrums feel a little painful.
However, it was clear that this was not the limit of the old man, and his voice was getting sharper and sharper, as if he did not do it. It doesn't show his correctness and foresight.
But, soon. Such a shrill sound was drowned out by a shock that could not be ignored.
Everyone standing in the inner city felt the continuous vibration under their feet-
Earthquake?!
Everyone thought of it for the first time, but the next moment, an exclamation appeared.
"So, Solo Castle, and, ...... the Hitt Mountains"
The voice stammered, incredulous, but enough to catch their eyes, and as they looked there, everyone was dumbfounded.
I saw that the castle of Solo was cracked in unison from the central position, and the Nahit Mountains were also divided into two by this opening!
It's like an invisible giant knife falling from the sky!
Whew, whew!
The cold wind and snowflakes mixed with the winter forest area blew through the Hitt Mountains, and poured in from this cut opening, causing the superiors of the various families present to shiver one after another.
Especially those who shouted before, their faces were even more pale and at a loss.
And the middle-aged man looked at the faces of the upper echelons of the surrounding families, and after sneering in his heart, he turned around and jumped off the wall of the inner city and walked towards the family station.
Dry Forest City, it's over!
This middle-aged man knew very well that after losing the Seven Great Families, it already meant that this place would be the glory of the past, although it would still be mentioned by people, but such a mention was just to show the strength of that Shak Dragon.
He will never deny this.
Especially after seeing the severed Hitt Mountains, that kind of power is already unforgettable.
So, he already has his own choice -
Lead the family to Momiji Castle!
Only there will be the center of the Akilin District in the future!
The thought in his heart suddenly made the middle-aged man's speed faster and faster; And several family leaders standing on the city wall of the inner city, after being slightly stunned, suddenly jumped off the city wall.
Then, more people joined in.
Only the old man stood still and did not move, he looked coldly at the hurry of those who were in charge of the various families, and snorted coldly in a low voice: "A group of guys who have forgotten the glory of the family! ”
Disdainful attitude verbal appearance.
It's just that the cold wind blowing from the cut in the Hitt Mountains behind him made him shiver involuntarily, although he tried his best to make his body look straighter, although the strength of the solar level had already made him ignore the cold, but the trembling was from his bones, and he couldn't restrain it at all.
And when the first convoy belonging to the middle-aged man's family appeared, more convoys began to gather in the city outside the city of Withered Forest City, which made the families outside the city suspicious - since last night, they were attracted by the continuous sound of battle, especially the huge vibration just now made them make a lot of guesses, but because of the rules set by the seven families, they did not dare to approach the Withered Forest City.
And this large convoy, they didn't dare to approach, especially after seeing a few well-known families in the outer city of the dry forest city, they were even more honest.
However, when the convoy disappeared, these families outside the city of Withered Forest began to probe their brains at the city gates.
"This is the territory of our Side family, get out of here!"
The old man yelled at the clan outside the city, showing the majesty of his clan.
Then, he was greeted with a smirk and a hug - a tiger can't fight a pack of wolves, not to mention that the so-called Side family is not a tiger, at most a fox carried away by intangible interests.
It's not even a fox or a fake tiger.
