The high-level of the Yang family didn't know that this was a vicious strategy, but the life and death platform was an important honor for the duel between the monks of the Xuanmen, if they retreated, even if the Yang family could support in this battle, they would lose face, and they would definitely be laughed at when they walked the rivers and lakes in the future.

This is the most ruthless part of this poisonous plan, so that the Yang family has no choice but to be forced to fight.

They had already prepared for the worst, as long as they fulfilled the Sima family's covenant of life and death, they were bound to sacrifice a large number of middle and low-level monks. However, the high-ranking cultivators above the Jindan stage in the family must not risk going out to face the battle, they are the foundation of the family's rise again.

The life and death platform is two zhang high, nine zhang nine long, four zhang wide, the area is not large, the two sides of the duel are divided into left and right confrontations, and there are no restrictions in the process, but one of the two people in the duel must die, and the duel is over.

Because the fighting was too tragic and violated the virtue of heaven's good life, it had disappeared in the cultivation realm for many years. I didn't expect the Sima family to think of such a vicious method.

Soon, the Sima family officially submitted the specific rules of the life and death ring to the Yang family:

1. The duel officially began fifteen days later, and the two sides sent 12 monks every day to compete in six rings at the same time, and both sides needed to write their names on the jade pillar next to the life and death platform one day in advance.

2. 12 battles per day, the side with more survivors wins, and the winner who wins 4 consecutive days or wins more than 7 days is the final winner. If the victorious side is the Sima family, the Yang family will open the city and surrender; if the Yang family wins, the Sima family will immediately withdraw and promise not to invade again within a hundred years.

3. There is no limit to the realm of the duel monks, and they can be matched at will.

4. Puppets, spirit beasts, and machine spirits are not included in the number of people and can be used without restrictions.

5. This duel is only about life and death.

There are a total of five detailed rules, but the Yang family's previous plan was all overturned, they originally planned to send some low-level monks as dead soldiers to deal with this life-and-death duel, but they didn't expect the Sima family to record the duel between the two sides in the final victory, so that the Yang family had to carefully send some high-level monks.

The fourth of them seems to be beneficial to the Yang family, but there are many capable people in the Sima family, and there may be monks who can restrain the Yang family's psychic skills.

Every day's duels are extremely important, and every duel needs to be taken seriously. It will decide the life and death of the Yang family.

In ten days, the Sima family had plenty of time to send masters from other state capitals to arrive, while the Yang family could only rely on themselves.

This kind of contest is not an ordinary fighting method, and there is still hope for survival. As long as you step on the platform of life and death, it is the result of endless death.

Zhang Xiaoshan originally thought that it would be difficult to choose a candidate for the Yang family, after all, who did not cherish his own life? However, he never expected that the Yang family would announce the news, and the entire Yang family would immediately boil, and all the young children who were eight or nine years old and old enough to be in seclusion for a long time all poured into the square in the Yang family's ancient castle, shouting that they wanted to go out of the city to kill the enemy.

This ancient castle is only the residential area of the direct bloodline of the Yang family, but more than 300 people live, and there are four other sub-forts in Wuwei Mansion, where the children of other branches are inhabited, and the number is as many as 2,000 people.

This is only the direct descendants of the Yang family, counting some outer disciples and other Hakqing elders, there are tens of thousands of people. Among them, 120 people will represent the Yang family.

Zhang Xiaoshan stood at the window of his room, looking at the noisy crowd below, these people were all related to him, many of them were people he didn't know, maybe soon, many people would fall......

For ten days, there was a tense atmosphere inside and outside the city.

The Sima family mobilized many masters from other state capitals. The Yang family in the city was nervously refining all kinds of magic weapons and spirit runes, and only through these treasures could they make up for the disadvantage of their lack of numbers.

Zhang Xiaoshan finally found his grandfather, explaining that he and Qingluan also had to sign up for the war.

Yang Sifang chuckled and said: "Xiaoshan, you are a rare young genius, and your mana is the best among the monks of the same level, but this life-and-death duel is not ordinary, and it is not limited to the realm, then the Sima family will definitely send masters, we are really sloppy." We can't agree to your request; as for this friend of yours from the Spirit Clan, we can't even consider it! I think that my Yang family is famous and prestigious, and it has not yet fallen to the point of needing the help of our friends of the Spirit Clan! If we are not as good as others and really lose, you young people need to break through in time and continue the bloodline of our Yang family. ”

Zhang Xiaoshan heard from his grandfather that the Yang family had made the worst plan, it seemed that once the life-and-death duel failed, all the monks of the Yang family would be ready to die and never suffer the humiliation of defeat.

This is the backbone of a large valve that has stood for thousands of years.

Soon, there were a lot of idle monks outside the city, these people were invited by the Sima family to watch the ceremony, most of them had some estrangement and contradictions with the Yang family, I heard that they could see the Yang family's embarrassed appearance this time, of course these people rushed here as soon as possible, and they were all looking forward to seeing the Yang family's dilapidated appearance.

Wuwei Mansion, Bajun Hall, the core area of Yangjia Castle.

In the huge hall, there were more than a hundred monks in earthy yellow robes, all of whom were the elders of the Yang Family Elder House and the administrators of the various branches of the Yang family.

They all stared silently at the high platform directly to the east, where there were nine white stone chairs, but now they were all empty.

Suddenly, there was a melodious sound of trumpets from outside the hall. All the elders and branch patriarchs standing below saluted respectfully to the high platform.

On the stone chair, which was originally empty, seven people appeared.

Just as the man in the middle had a restrained breath, his beard was white, his face was ruddy, and his eyes seemed to be thunderous between his eyes. It was none other than the Yang family's Supreme Elder Yang Jedi, who was the second generation of the Yang family, and he was already over nine hundred years old. He is also the highest person in the Yang family, and he is already in the late stage of the tribulation.

The six people sitting next to him, two women and four men, all wearing robes, covered their faces, but those who are interested only need to probe lightly and will find that these six people are all demon clans. However, the demonic aura on their bodies is already very weak.

These six people are six of the Yang family's guardian beasts (Jedi, Feather, Ben Night, Chaoying, Yuhui, Chaoguang, Tengwu, Fuyi,), as for the other two "Jedi" and "Chaoguang" who were tragically killed in the Great War thousands of years ago. Now all the people in the Eight Horses Hall are the core strength of the Yang family.

The contemporary patriarch of the Yang family, Yang Dong Junsheng, is the mainstay of the new generation of the Yang family, he and Yang Bei Dangpo are known as the double-headed horses of the Yang family by everyone in the Xuanmen, and the two of them are inseparable from each other in terms of cultivation or courage, only because Yang Dong Junsheng is a descendant of the lineage, and the bloodline is more pure, so he has to be elected as the patriarch.

Yang Dong Junsheng stepped forward and first said some traditional etiquette words, which were nothing more than some prayers to bless the family. He still has a few words left unfinished.

Yang Jedi on the high platform had already interrupted him impatiently: "Okay, the form is urgent, don't waste time!"

Yang Dong Junsheng nodded slightly, and had no choice but to speak: "Tell the Ancestor, this time I convened you, just to set the list of people who will fight life and death, and according to the list, I need to prepare all kinds of suitable spirit runes and pills for them!"

Yang Jedi suddenly asked, "Is the descendant of the Zhang family and his fellow Daoists still there?"

Yang Dong Junsheng was slightly stunned, and hurriedly responded: "Ancestor, Zhang Xiaoshan is indeed still in the city!"

"Oh, why don't you send him away, Zhang Daocheng's junior has already asked me for someone several times!" Yang Jedi said unhappily.

Zhang Daocheng was originally a junior under the three generations of Yang Jedi, but the two of them had the same status, both of them were the elders of the clan, and because Zhang Jiagui was the head of the four major sect lords, he also had to give Zhang Daocheng a few thin noodles.

That Zhang Xiaoshan is Zhang Daocheng's most beloved closed disciple, he has been missing for five years before, this old man knows that it is because of the talent of the Yang family that caused Zhang Xiaoshan's disappearance, he is very unhappy, he has been making trouble with himself for five years, and now it is easy to find people, so he should hurry up and send it back, and the regeneration incident of the province.

In fact, Zhang Xiaoshan was rewarded with a first-class psychic talisman twice in a row, also because Yang Jedi wanted to repair his relationship with Zhang Daocheng. Even the matter of Qingluan's scanning with divine consciousness in the city before, the Yang family had actually discovered it a long time ago, but Yang Jedi had an order not to allow anyone to mention this matter, so just don't know.

The hidden piles of the Sima family in the city, Yang Jedi was originally of great use, and he was ready to carry out a counter-plan, but it was destroyed by Zhang Xiaoshan without knowing it.

Now the situation is not as usual, the Yang family's Wuwei Mansion has been besieged for a year, and there are constant battles and battles every day, Yang Dong Junsheng is busy with family affairs, and where does he have time to take care of Zhang Xiaoshan's affairs, he was speechless for a while, and he was on the spot. Fortunately, in the crowd, one person walked out, and it was Yang Sifang with a serious face.

Yang Sifang said: "Tell the ancestor, that child in Xiaoshan is my grandson, I have already told him to let him leave as soon as possible, but this child is very stubborn, insisting on staying and retreating with the Yang family, I am also quite helpless!

"Haha, this kid has a bit of the arrogance of the Yang family, not bad! Very good!" Yang Jedi smiled happily: "Those children of the Sima family are still trying to break my city, it's really wishful thinking! Show me the list!"

Yang Dong Junsheng walked up to the high platform, handed the scroll in his hand to Yang Jedi, and then stood below with his head down. The terrifying aura of the seven Taishang shook him into a cold sweat. He felt that these seniors could kill themselves with just one thought. With these dependencies, the Yang family is definitely not something that others can insult at will.

Yang Jedi quickly finished reading the list, handed it to the man on the right, and said, "Second uncle, can you settle down?"

Sitting on his right hand is the second of the eight horses, the second of the eight horses, who is the best friend of Yang Jedi's father, who has been silently guarding the Yang family for thousands of years, and is respected by Yang Jedi as the second uncle.

Flip Yu looked at it and said in a low voice: "It's about the safety of the Yang family, this time there is no room for mistakes, add the six of us, and the Zhang family kid you just said and her Taoist companion are also added!"

The woman sitting next to her was the fourth super shadow among the eight horses, and she couldn't help laughing: "Haha! Second brother, your idea is really good!"

Turning Yu said: "Zhuang'er, don't worry, with our six old things, the Yang family will not be wiped out! I'm just curious, what is the matter with that guy Xuanming this time, is it just for that incident a thousand years ago?"

The strong man in his mouth is the milk name of Yang Jedi, and only these eight horses are qualified to call it that.

Chaoying hurriedly said, "Could it be because of that big chance?"

"Well, Fourth Aunt, please be cautious!" Yang Jedi hurriedly dissuaded. There are a lot of people talking here, and the fewer people who know about that big opportunity, the better!

The seven people on the high platform had long known that the Sima family's siege of Wuwei Mansion was Xuan Ming's idea. In the camp of the Sima family, the demonic spirit is strong, these can hide from others, but they can't hide from these people, thousands of years ago, they all dealt with Xuan Ming, and they also participated in that tragic battle.

They quickly determined the revised list, in addition to the 6 people in the Eight Horses, there were 3 monks in the Tribulation Period, 11 monks in the Yuan Infant Period, and 35 monks in the Jindan Period, these are the most elite combat forces of the Yang family, if you don't make a move, you will win, and the remaining 63 people are all monks in the foundation building period, and Zhang Xiaoshan in the foundation building period and Qingluan incarnation in the Yuan Infant Period, a total of 120 monks.

All the monks who go out to fight will be allocated a total of 1,000 talismans of each attribute tonight, as well as various elixirs, if there is no suitable magic weapon and ice blade, maybe they will be given tonight.

There are a lot of repetitive things involved, but fortunately, there are people in the presbytery who are in charge, and as long as the list of personnel is determined, other things will be handled properly.

At the end of the meeting, an agreement was made to compensate the dead monks, and everything was finalized one by one, which took a total of 2 hours......

As the assembly ended, the elders left the Eight Horses Hall with the list, most of them would be involved in future duels, and they had to hurry up, take care of their own affairs, and arrange everything as soon as possible.

Looking at the departing juniors, Yang Jedi was also a little sad in his heart, these are his descendants, seeing that they are about to step on the platform of life and death, he himself is a little helpless, and when this matter is dealt with, he will go to talk to the other three about revenge, this time the Sima family has really gone too far......

A day later, it will be a duel between life and death, and tonight you need to write the list of tomorrow's duel on the jade pillar.

Tomorrow is the first day of the showdown, and neither side wants to lose the opportunity, and tomorrow will definitely be extremely fierce.

Zhang Xiaoshan was pleasantly surprised to get the name card of the duel, and asked him and Qingluan to go to the patriarch's room to get the utensils used in the duel.

When Qingluan knew the news, his face turned cold and he refused: "Whoever added my name, I won't go, and I won't allow you to go!"

"Qing'er, this is a matter of life and death for the Yang family, we must do our part!" Zhang Xiaoshan didn't expect Qingluan to refuse so simply, and he felt embarrassed, but he also wondered, didn't his grandfather say the day before that he would not allow the two of them to fight? Why did he change his mind now.

He was born as a descendant of the Zhang family, of course he understands that the four major sects are in the same breath, not to mention that he still has the blood of the Yang family flowing in his body, and he should do his part. He was not even more worried that he would die in the life-and-death duel, and he still had a pendant around his neck that Bei Huaixuan had given him, and the monks below the Tribulation Period did not want to hurt themselves. And this is a duel of life and death, and he also has a reasonable reason to ask for a few magic weapons of his own from Qingluan, with the assistance of those magic weapons, even the monks of the Yuan infant stage dare to fight.

Qingluan shook his head and said, "I'm not going, I heard people in the city talking about this, saying that those who go out to fight are sent to death!

"Good Qing'er, if you give me back those treasures of mine, I will naturally not be able to die, and ah, ......" Zhang Xiaoshan originally wanted to say, as long as we go to this life and death platform together, we will get married after coming back safely. But he thought about it, he must not say this, otherwise with the strength of two people, he will definitely come back safely, then he is really going to marry this demon clan, and his master will definitely punish him heavily after he knows about it.

Qingluan raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "And what, why don't you finish speaking?"

"It's nothing! It's nothing!" Zhang Xiaoshan hurriedly said: "I know that the Yang family has nothing to do with you, so you should treat it as me!

Qingluan pondered for a moment and said, "Since you said so, I have one condition!"

Zhang Xiaoshan felt that Qingluan's expression was a little strange, he hesitated for a moment, and asked, "What conditions?

Qingluan laughed, spit out a large number of utensils from his mouth, and said to Zhang Xiaoshan with a red face: "Let's fight together, and we will get married when we come back!"

Zhang Xiaoshan said in his heart, "Sure enough!" was filled with joy and sorrow in his heart, and reluctantly accepted the pile of dazzling treasures.

"This matter is considered in the long run! Why is this big demon so stupid, he really takes a fancy to himself, oh my God!

Qingluan saw Zhang Xiaoshan's expression, covered his mouth and chuckled, but he looked at Zhang Xiaoshan stunned, the two of them were together every day, he felt Qingluan's changes all the time, she was more and more like a real woman in the world, and more and more like the woman in his illusion, he was really afraid that he really liked this big demon, so he quickly lowered his head and looked away, his heart was beating wildly.

Qingluan happily pulled Zhang Xiaoshan to the Yang family patriarch's room.

In addition to Yang Dong Junsheng, there were several other old men, who praised Zhang Xiaoshan, and gave a lot of high-grade spirit runes, and gave Zhang Xiaoshan a high-grade battle armor for self-defense.

Zhang Xiaoshan felt that happiness came a little too suddenly, but he didn't expect that in one day, he suddenly became rich again, looking at the various spiritual runes he was holding, he couldn't close his mouth with a smile.

After the two of them left the patriarch's room, they returned to their room, and it was already early afternoon, Qingluan gently pushed open the window, and the sky in the west was red.

Qingluan suddenly said: "Sunset Hongxia, tomorrow must be a day of killing!"
