Chapter 48: Refuge
Lin Jiangcheng, Wang's family.
Compared with five years ago, the Wang family is obviously a lot more dilapidated.
Over the years, the contradictions between the Wang family and the Li family have become increasingly aggravated, and Liuguangzong has even begun to meddle in the affairs of the two families.
With the help of the Liuguang Sect, the Wang family is not the opponent of the Li family at all, and can only watch the family industry being eaten away little by little.
Although the Wang family is also friendly with the Baiyun Sect, the Baiyun Sect is far away in Yunzhou, and the distance is far away, so it cannot support the Wang family at all.
At this time, in the main hall of the Wang family, Wang Zhan and the others were frowning, as if they were discussing something!
"Big brother, the Liuguang Sect has given an ultimatum, if you don't hand over the ore vein, you will unite with the Li family and kill us completely! What should we choose? Wang Ning frowned, and said with a sigh.
"The ore vein is the foundation of our family's ability to stand for thousands of years, once handed over, we are just lambs to the slaughter, and we can't hand it over!" An elder said loudly.
However, this immediately aroused the opposition of the other elders, "If we don't hand over the ore vein, we will have to face the joint efforts of the Liuguang Sect and the Li family, and with our strength, we will definitely not be opponents!" β
"In this case, it is better to endure the humiliation, hand over the ore vein, and preserve the strength in order to make a comeback in the future!"
An elder snorted coldly and said, "Are you still a child?" Thinking so naΓ―ve, once the Liuguang Sect and the Li family's veins are used, with their means, can our Wang family still survive? β
"How do you know if you don't give it a try? At least there's a way out! β
"Try? You are taking the lives of everyone in the Wang family again, once you lose, my Wang family will be doomed! β......
Listening to the quarrel of the elders in the main hall, Wang Zhan couldn't help but feel a little big.
Now the Wang family is divided into two factions, one faction does not want to hand over the ore vein, retains a trace of the family's bloodline, and then fights with the Li family and Liuguangzong.
The other faction advocates handing over the ore veins and preserving themselves, so that as long as people live, they can make a comeback in the future, recapture the ore veins, and revive the Wang family.
Both factions have their own reasons, and they have been arguing over this endlessly, and no result has been reached.
"Alright, stop arguing!" Wang Zhan, who was sitting at the top, let out a roar of rage.
The entire main hall suddenly fell silent.
"The ore vein can't be handed over, I have decided to fight to the death with the Li family and the Liuguang Sect!" Wang Zhan said firmly.
"Master, you have to think twice!" An elder stood up and persuaded him.
Wang Zhan waved his hand and said, "I have made up my mind, I don't need to persuade anymore, instead of living in the world, it is better to die vigorously!" β
Then, Wang Zhanyou looked at Wang Teng and said, "Teng'er, you immediately gather the young people in the clan now and secretly take them to the Baiyun Sect!" β
"I've already contacted the White Cloud Sect, and they will be on the border street of Yunzhou."
But Wang Teng looked reluctant, "Dad, I also want to stay, you better send someone else!" β
"Nonsense!" Wang Zhan angrily reprimanded, "These young disciples are the hope of my Wang family's future, and you are the next head of the Wang family, this matter must be left to you!" β
After Wang Zhan's reprimand, although Wang Teng was reluctant, he still chose to accept it.
Without further ado, Wang Teng turned around and left, immediately gathering the young disciples of the Wang family.
After nightfall, Wang Teng, under Wang Zhan's advice, left the Wang family with these young disciples.
However, early the next morning, Wang Teng, who was seriously injured, returned to Wang's house with a reduced number of young disciples.
After asking, I learned that the Li family seemed to have been guarding against the Wang family secretly leaving.
Therefore, they had already set up an ambush at the intersection and seriously injured Wang Teng and his party, but did not kill them, but drove them back to Wang's house.
"They want to exterminate my Wang family!" Looking at Wang Teng and the others, Wang Zhan said hatefully.
There was also despair in the eyes of the elders!
"Boom", in the front yard of the Wang family, there was a sudden explosion.
Hearing this voice, everyone looked at each other and knew what was happening!
Wang Zhan said to Wang Teng: "You guys are here to recuperate for a while, let's go and have a look!" β
With that, Wang Zhan led a group of elders to the front yard.
Sure enough, it was the people from the Li family and the Liuguang Sect who came to the door.
In the front yard, a group of people were standing there menacingly, and several injured Wang family children were lying on the ground.
"Master Wang, how are things considered?" It was an old man with gray hair who spoke, the great elder of the Liuguang Sect.
Wang Zhan looked at this person, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Hehe! You should still give up, the ore vein is the foundation of my royal family, and I will not hand it over to you! β
The Great Elder of the Liuguang Sect snorted coldly, "Master Wang, you have to think clearly, with your current strength of the Wang Family, can you still keep the ore vein?" Don't you know the truth of sin? β
The former Wang family was a thousand-year-old family and was prominent for a while.
However, in the past five years, the forces under his command have been continuously encroached upon by the Li family and Liuguangzong, and now, they have become a third-rate force, and anyone can bully them.
And the ore vein owned by the Wang family is a super ore vein, and in order to provide a steady stream of wealth for the Wang family, many forces are very jealous.
In the past, because of the strength of the Wang family, other forces did not dare to provoke.
Now, the Wang family is defeated, and with such wealth in hand, even if the Li family and Liuguangzong don't do it, other forces will rush to it!
"Master Wang, as long as you hand over the ore vein to me Liuguang Sect, I promise that not only will not touch your Wang family, but I will also protect you and others!" The Great Elder said with a smile.
Wang Zhan's face was gloomy, and he hesitated a little.
If Wang Teng succeeds in leaving, he will refuse without hesitation, and then lead everyone to fight to the death with the other party.
However, if he refuses the other party now, the Wang family may be doomed, and he will become a sinner of the Wang family.
"How can I trust you?" Wang Zhan said in a deep voice.
Seeing that Wang Zhan seemed to be relieved, the Great Elder smiled and said: "Master Wang, I really don't hide it, my Liuguang Sect has already returned to the Great Qian Imperial Court and submitted to the world's sect families, this is Your Majesty's will, and we naturally dare not disobey!" β
Hearing this, the faces of everyone in the Wang family suddenly changed.
No wonder in the past five years, in the face of the encroachment of the Li family and the Liuguang Sect, the Wang family has been powerless to resist!
It's no wonder that overnight, there were many more masters in the Li family and the Liuguang Sect that they had never seen before!
It turned out that behind all this was the secret plot of the Daqian court.
"Lord Wang, handing over the ore vein and taking refuge in the imperial court is now the only way for your Wang family to survive. With the existence of the Great Qian's Imperial Court, we naturally won't do anything to you? β
Wang Zhan looked at the Great Elder of the Liuguang Sect, and after pondering for a long time, he still made a decision, "Okay, I am willing to hand over the ore vein and take refuge in the imperial court!" β
"Haha! Okay, the one who knows the times is Junjie, the head of the Wang Zhan family, your choice is very clear! The Great Elder of the Liuguang Sect said with a laugh.
