Chapter 166: Arrogance
Ye Chonggong was angry, but after all, the high power had experienced a lot of turmoil, and quickly made contingency measures.
The Zhao family in Drifting Snow City is powerful, and the Storm Legion is coming to the city, and it is difficult for the Ye family to compete with Zhao Beigong on their own, but if they can unite all the families in Broken Leaf City, the situation will be much better, and if they can't defeat the Storm Legion, they can also close the city gate and wait for the alliance's rescue.
Before summoning the clansmen to gather in the Zhenyuan Palace, he had already urgently asked the upper echelons of the alliance for help. Openly summoning a large army to besiege Shattered Leaf City, Zhao Beigong's move was too arrogant, and it was impossible for the top leaders of the alliance to sit idly by; otherwise, the big families in all parts of the alliance would follow suit, and without the Hualong Empire sending troops to attack, the alliance itself would collapse.
Seeing that the head of the family, Ye Chonggong, dealt with it calmly, the clansmen finally felt a lot more relieved, but soon, bad news followed.
First of all, someone found the corpses of the dead soldiers of the Ye family who went out of the city to ask for help, and all thirteen dead soldiers were killed, and the bodies were half buried in front of the army of the Storm Legion. The terrifying blizzard hung in the air like a high-altitude waterfall, covering the sky and the sun for many miles, and the most elite dead soldiers of the Ye family could not break through and rush out. Blockaded by the Stormwind Legion, Shattered Leaf City became a lonely city.
The second bad news was even worse, according to Ye Hu's report, the major families in the city did not have the slightest intention of joining forces to fight against the Storm Legion. Even, some people bluntly said that the Storm Legion was only coming for the Ye family, and no one was willing to fight side by side with the Ye family.
The third news was sent back by Ye Mancang, who reinforced the city gate, and before the Storm Legion outside the city could move, the city guards all ran out, leaving only a team of ironclad guards led by Ye Mancang to guard the city. Once the battle began, that small group of ironclad guards was not large enough for the Storm Legion.
The three pieces of news were worse than the other, which made the Ye family fall into unprecedented tension and panic. Zhao Beigong, the lord of Drifting Snow City, obviously came prepared, and before the war started, he isolated the Ye family and cut off the Ye family's reinforcements.
The people gathered in front of the Zhenyuan Hall gradually became noisy, and the second old man Ye Feilong was the first to lose his patience and couldn't hold his breath, "Big brother, if we really want to start a war, we will lose, for the sake of the clan, hand over that kid from Hongyuan." ”
Master Tang Fu stood behind Ye Feilong, without saying a word, looking submissive, but secretly encouraged Ye Feilong to come forward, strongly recommending that Hong Yuan be handed over, and occasionally pretending to look up at Hong Yuan unintentionally, with a hideous face.
After being discarded by Hong Yuan, the old guy's heart became even more distorted, and he hated Hong Yuan to the core. Seeing that Hong Yuan's cultivation was getting stronger and stronger, he could only be anxious, thinking that there was no hope of revenge, but he didn't expect a turn for the better so soon. For him, Zhao Beigong and the Storm Legion came at the right time!
Hong Yuan didn't speak, and at a glance from a distance, he knew what Ye Feilong and Tang Fu, the two embarrassed guys, were thinking, and regretted that he was too light last time.
He didn't say a word and watched the changes, but Ye Tiangao quickly stood up, "No, Hong Yuan grew up in the Ye family's compound since he was a child, and at least half of the Ye family. If you hand him over like this, the backbone of our Ye family will be broken, in the future, how can we face the people of other families, and how can we explain to the ancestors of the Ye family after death?"
"If you don't hand over the people, the entire Ye family will be wiped out!
"The backbone is broken, what's the point of barely living, what's the difference with a dog? Besides, there are thousands of people in our Ye family, no matter how you say it, it is also a big family of the alliance, and it has made great contributions to the alliance. If he really killed all of us, how could Zhao Beigong explain to the top of the alliance? Will the three giants of the alliance let him kill innocents indiscriminately in the alliance and go on a killing spree?" Ye Tiangao argued.
In the square, people were talking. Some people agree with the second master Ye Feilong's statement, some people support Ye Tiangao, and some people propose to arrest Zhao Xuemin as a hostage and force Zhao Beigong to withdraw from the army. There were more ironclad guards besieging Hong Yuan and Zhao Xuemin, their eyes were cold, and the atmosphere became more and more tense.
Before people could argue about a result, there was a burst of exclamations and screams from the direction of the city gate, and soon, Ye Mancang stumbled back, and fell in front of Ye Chonggong with a thud, covered in blood, and spoke intermittently and breathlessly, "Big ...... , big lord, Zhao Beigong he ......"
"Zhao Beigong did it?" Ye Chonggong was also taken aback, and his eyebrows jumped wildly. Before Ye Mancang, who had fled back to report the news, spoke, he suddenly raised his head with a sense in his heart.
The temperature plummeted, and large snowflakes appeared in the sky.
Unlike the usual snowflakes, the snowflakes falling from the sky are not only surprisingly large, but also faintly flickering with blue light, bringing extreme cold. The people of the Ye family who gathered in the square all shivered at once, and they felt the cold wind biting.
"Coming, father, he's coming!"
Zhao Xuemin's heart was bitter, and it was too late to leave, so she muttered: "Hong Yuan, I'm sorry, I'm the one who bothered you." ”
"It's okay, just look at how capable your father is!"
Hong Yuan smiled and secretly summoned the army of war pets stationed outside the city, urging the Blood Bat King to speed up his actions.
The blizzard and the Storm Legion outside the city are very powerful, and the momentum is so great that it makes the heart flutter at a glance from a distance, but before they have really started, who can say that there will be no chance to break through?
Hong Yuan never gave up easily, secretly calculated the direction and grasp of the breakthrough, when everyone was nervous and panicked, he calmed down, waited for the arrival of the army of war pets, and did not regret walking with Zhao Xuemin, not afraid of the coercion of the Storm Legion. If there is really any regret, it is that the war pet army under his command has not had time to expand, there are no truly powerful super monsters, and the number of vampire bats and tomb knife scorpions is not enough.
If the number of vampire bats and tomb knife scorpions is expanded from 100,000 to 1 million, and the black and white peonies are equipped to form a self-detonating army, how can they be afraid of the storm army under the command of Zhao Beigong?
At that time, I am afraid that it will be the turn of the Storm Legion to flee from the wind, or even be wiped out by the net!
Hong Yuan took a deep breath and made up his mind to survive this catastrophe, no matter what, he must enter the Endless Abyss again to experience, collect more and more powerful demon beasts, and never get out of the Endless Abyss before forming a huge army of war pets that is so large that it is suffocating.
The cold wind was howling, and a snowstorm suddenly appeared in the sky above the Ye family's compound, and then, Zhao Beigong suddenly appeared in front of the people, with more than a dozen relatives standing behind him. There are men and women, dressed in different costumes and holding all kinds of strange-shaped weapons, this is the doorman of the Zhao family, and they are also the masters of Zhao Beigong who have been collecting money in the Gods and Ghosts Continent over the years, and each of them is at least a big master above the peak of the Quartet Realm. Surprisingly, Chu Tianyang also came, and it seemed that he couldn't wait to marry Zhao Xuemin.
As Zhao Xuemin expected, her father couldn't wait for dark, and he didn't even wait for the Ye family to reply, he broke in, not afraid of any powerful killing formations or prohibitions in the Ye family's compound, and was full of confidence in his own cultivation.
Looking at the entire alliance, except for a few super masters such as the three giants of the alliance and Dugu Qianzhang, Zhao Beigong's cultivation is already one of the best, even if there is no protection from more than a dozen relatives, it is enough to break into the Ye family, which is not as strong as before. There were only a dozen people in the group, but the people of the Ye family felt like thousands of troops were coming, and they were all going backwards.
Ye Chonggong's face became even more gloomy, he didn't say a word, but his face was as black as ink, and behind the silence was monstrous anger and extremely tangled hesitation.
Zhao Beigong deceived people too much, and obviously didn't take the Ye family in his eyes at all, but when he was young, Ye Chonggong directly swung his knife and pounced on Zhao Beigong to fight to the death. But now, as the head of the Ye family, he had to think about more things and had to endure it!
"Father, let Hong Yuan go, everything has nothing to do with him, I'll go back with you!"
Zhao Xuemin suddenly stepped forward and walked towards his father, taking off the big hat on his head as he walked, and even the bun crown with a woman's disguised male clothes was also taken off, revealing a long black hair. The delicate and moving face immediately attracted people's attention, especially Chu Tianyang, whose gaze became hot all of a sudden, "Xue'er, you are really here, go, I ......"
"Get out!"
Before Chu Tianyang finished speaking, Zhao Xuemin walked past him with a look of disgust.
"Hmph, tie her up!" Zhao Beigong snorted coldly, and two relatives rushed out behind him, one left and one right, tied up Zhao Xuemin, and sealed her skills.
"Zhao Xue......"
Hong Yuan exclaimed, subconsciously took a step forward, and wanted to rush up to save people, but was coldly stopped by his aunt Liu Ruyan.
"Hong Yuan, take care!"
Zhao Xuemin glanced back at Hong Yuan, his eyes were slightly red, and he let his father's personal soldiers escort him down.
Chu Tianyang looked at Zhao Xuemin, and then at Hong Yuan, his face turned blue, and a terrifying cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Zhao Beigong, your daughter has been found, now, can you quit my Ye family compound?" Ye Chonggong's voice was low, and his heart was bitter.
When this sentence came out, it was already a disguised submission, begging Zhao Beigong to raise his noble hand. In other words, someone else broke into the Ye family like this, and they were expelled without being hacked to death with a knife. But now, there are only a dozen people around Zhao Beigong, and the head of the Ye family doesn't dare to do it.
"As I said, this kid surnamed Hong will also be taken away. The rhetoric of abducting Xue'er, who is not deeply involved in the world, is a capital crime, and it must be brought back to Drifting Snow City for public trial!"
Zhao Beigong's tone was cold, and he didn't give Ye Chonggong any face, "In addition, in order to make up for the losses of our Storm Legion expedition, your Ye family will also compensate 10,000 taels of silver, and all the ore veins in your hands will be transferred to Drifting Snow City free of charge." In the future, if the disciples of the Ye family want to go north of the alliance when they walk the rivers and lakes, they must prophetically inform us of Drifting Snow City. ”
Zhao Beigong's words made the Ye family agitate all of a sudden, and in addition to taking Hong Yuan away, they made amazing demands.
The Ye family has been deeply rooted in the Broken Leaf City for hundreds of years, but if they take out 10,000 taels of silver at once, and then lose all the ore veins, it will definitely hurt their muscles and bones, and there is no hope of revival in the future. As for going north of the alliance to the Prophet Drifting Snow City, it would be a great humiliation to the Ye family. As expected, Zhao Beigong's big move this time was just using Hong Yuan as an excuse, and the root cause was the old grudge between the two families.
"Good!"
Ye Chonggong gritted his teeth and unexpectedly agreed to Zhao Beigong's excessive request. For a while, Ye Tiangao and others were in an uproar, but Ye Chonggong was unmoved.
"Hahaha, hahahaha, the Ye family compound is still there, but the Ye family is already dead, hahaha......"
Ye Beigong laughed, and the snowflakes in the sky suddenly turned into an ice blade, cutting off a layer from the roof of the Zhenyuan Palace, which symbolized the power and military exploits of the Ye family, and strode towards Hong Yuan while laughing, wanting to personally arrest Hong Yuan and take him away. Hearing that his scouts said that Hong Yuan had dodged several attacks from Second Elder Zhao Hanbing one after another, he couldn't help but feel a little interested in Hong Yuan, and wanted to try what Hong Yuan was capable of himself.
"Ignorance. ”
Liu Ruyan said two words lightly, and as soon as the words fell, the ghost servant walked up and coldly blocked in front of Zhao Beigong. In the face of Zhao Beigong's coercion, Ye Chonggong, the head of the family, had to endure the humiliation, but the ghost servant had no expression.
"Huh......"
Zhao Beigong was very surprised, he didn't expect that someone would stand up to stop him. Looking at the ghost servant who was not good-looking, he was disdainful at first, but after a few careful glances, his face slowly became solemn, and he sensed a powerful power in the ghost servant's body that ordinary people could not find!
