Chapter 563: Road Robbery and Killing! [Ask for subscription, ask for a monthly pass]
When Li Mubai took the heads of hundreds of Geng family monks out of the city to pay respects to the clansmen, Zhou Yang looted many family treasures, including the Geng family.
The reason why Geng Zhong actively slaughtered the Li family at the beginning, in addition to carrying out Guo Jinhong's order and bringing out a bad breath of being beaten by Zhou Yang, the most important reason was to covet the Li family's property.
"Cangyuan Sanren" Li Cangyuan is the founder of Cangyuan Immortal City, and for hundreds of years, the Li family and he have accumulated an unknown amount of wealth because of this immortal city.
Although Li Cangyuan, the "Cangyuan Sanren", took out a lot of things and handed them to him in order to let Geng Zhong let go of the Li family, he still couldn't satisfy him.
Now, most of the Li family's wealth is stored in the underground treasure house of the City Lord's Mansion.
However, all the treasure troves used to store the family's savings are always heavily defended, and some even have "bloodline divine forbidden" to prevent enemies from obtaining the treasures inside.
But since Zhou Yang has such a plan, how could he not be prepared?
Geng Zhong's private treasure house in the City Lord's Mansion, after he destroyed the outer defensive array, directly burned through the thick alloy wall with the enhanced version of "Qianyang True Fire" and ransacked it.
The treasure house of the Geng family, which was equipped with the "Blood Divine Forbidden", was easily opened by him with Geng Zhong's own blood and the treasure house opening method he learned from his memory through the "Soul Searching Dafa", and also looted the precious things.
As for those Purple Mansion families, they haven't used such high-level things as the "Bloodline God Forbidden", and the treasure house is for Zhou Yang, and it doesn't take much effort at all.
He moved quickly, and in less than half a day, he completed the looting of various destroyed families and their shops and other properties in the city.
Then Geng Zhong, who had become demented because of the "Soul Searching Dafa", handed over to Li Mubai and chopped it off, and put his head on the top of the Jingguan built by hundreds of monks of the Geng family, and then took Li Mubai directly out of Cangyuan Immortal City and disappeared in front of people.
It wasn't until Zhou Yang left with Li Mubai that the other residents of Cangyuan Immortal City, who were trembling and hiding at home because of this bloody revenge, dared to come out to check the specific situation, and then a big robbery inevitably happened.
Although Zhou Yang had exhausted the essence of the treasure houses of the various destroyed families, the storage rings on his body were also limited, and it was impossible to carry everything, in fact, many large-scale and not particularly valuable spiritual objects were thrown down by him and not taken away, not to mention the spiritual plants planted on the spiritual mountains of each family and the spiritual ores hoarded.
In addition, there were many corpses of monks who had been killed, and he did not have time to search for them, but only the storage weapons carried by those important people.
He couldn't take these things away, nor did he destroy them, and now they are all ownerless, as long as anyone can go up and snatch them.
And because there is no city lord Geng Zhong, and there is no city lord Geng Zhong's henchmen and monks to suppress in the city, when other residents in the immortal city rush these things, there is no psychological pressure at all.
Even many monks who originally belonged to the Cangyuan Immortal City Guards joined in the robbery, and there were many bloody battles for this.
When the Jindan monks of other forces in the Yu Kingdom heard that Zhou Yang, an important wanted criminal of the "Anti-Light Alliance", appeared in Cangyuan Immortal City and rushed to hunt down Zhou Yang, they relied on their overwhelming strength to stop the robbery and restore the order of Cangyuan Immortal City to normal.
Next, as the news spread, all kinds of small family forces like the Zhou family, who had fled Cangyuan Immortal City due to the change of city lords, gathered like wolves smelling fishy, including several Zhou family foundation building monks led by Li Hong.
There are more than a dozen monks in the Jindan period of Yu Kingdom, and behind these people are seven or eight different forces, and the Cangyuan Immortal City, which was extremely prosperous in the past, suddenly lost its owner, and everyone wanted to reach out and collect this immortal city that was making money every day into their own forces.
However, in the case of mutual restraint, no one can get their wish.
At this time, forces such as the Zhou family that originally belonged to Cangyuan Immortal City, as long as they showed a little intention of joining a certain force, they would be gladly accepted immediately.
The two sides hit it off, one side needs to find a strong enough backer to rely on, and the other side needs an excuse to meddle in Cangyuan Immortal City, which can be described as taking what each other needs.
Regarding how Li Hong was left and right among the many big forces and grabbed benefits for the Zhou family, Zhou Yang did not pay attention.
After he took Li Mubai to evacuate Cangyuan Immortal City, he began to recall the various Zhou family foundation building monks who had returned from traveling to the extreme west, and prepared to leave the extreme west.
In the end, he brought seventeen Zhou family foundation building monks who had been trained in the extreme west, and a total of fifteen people came back, and two of the other had broken soul cards, proving that they had been killed.
For the two monks of the Zhou family who were killed, Zhou Yang had no idea of helping them avenge except to express his condolences.
He didn't even know where these two people were killed, let alone looking for the murderer for them, the extreme west was not the boundless sand sea cultivation immortal realm where their Zhou family was the master, and they could let them search all parties to track down the murderer.
What's more, traveling to the Immortal Cultivation Realm is a dangerous thing in itself, even if it is a disciple of the top sect of the Xuanyang Immortal Sect, not every time someone who goes out to travel can come back with all their tails.
Identity background can only bring safety and reliance to people in public, and when you go to a wild and uninhabited land, facing a life-and-death struggle, who cares what the opponent's background is.
Although the two foundation building cultivators were lost, the number of Zhou Yang and them returning to the Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm did not decrease but increased.
Li Mubai finally chose to leave this sad place with Zhou Yang and go to the boundless sand sea to cultivate immortals to rebuild their Li family, and among the people accompanying him, he and a pair of children, Li Zifeng and Li Zinan.
Coupled with Zhou Yang's promise to bring back Zhou Fuyun and Zhou Zeqian's mother and son to the Boundless Sand Sea Cultivation Immortal Realm, the number of people naturally increased by a few people.
In fact, after hearing about the situation on the side of the Zhou family, they all openly and secretly expressed their willingness to follow Zhou Yang to the boundless sand sea to cultivate immortals and recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors, but in fact, they were no longer willing to be frightened and survive in the cracks of the extreme west.
But Zhou Yang considered that Li Hong needed manpower to develop the Zhou family here, so he still appeased those people with good words and gave up this idea.
Of course, in order to appease these people, he still raised the treatment of these people to the level of the Zhou family's own family, and they didn't need to be assessed like those monks of the family.
At the same time, he privately confiscated the treasures obtained from the various treasure houses of Cangyuan Immortal City this time, and selected some general spiritual objects that could be said to be clear and filled into the Zhou family's treasure house, so that these people could exchange and use them with family contribution points.
Speaking of which, this raid also made Zhou Yang a windfall.
With the colorful spirit stones alone, he didn't get a total of 1.56 million lower-grade spirit stones, and he also didn't get 37 high-grade spirit stones.
As for other treasures such as elixirs, magic weapons, spirit runes, exercises, elixirs, and spirit ores, they were even more than three storage rings, and they were worth at least two or three million lower grade spirit stones.
In other words, after finishing this vote, he not only completely made up for the spirit stone materials invested in the Zhou family in the extreme west, but also made a lot of money.
The person who saw off Zhou Yang and his party was a foundation-building monk of the Zhou family, but this person was just waiting outside the "Falling Demon Valley", and after Zhou Yang and the others left, the ghost cultivator Xu Song took down the thirty-six high-grade spirit stones placed on the teleportation array, and sent a little ghost to take them out of the "Falling Demon Valley" and handed them over to this Zhou family's foundation-building monk.
Thirty-six complete top-grade spirit stones can be used to activate the teleportation array three times, and these spirit stones remain in the Zhou family, which can be used as reserve funds for emergency relief, and can also be used to activate the teleportation array after Zhou Yang comes over next time.
On the other side, after returning to the Boundless Sand Sea Cultivation Immortal Realm, those Zhou family foundation building monks first wrote a travelogue of what they saw and heard on this trip to the extreme west according to Zhou Yang's previous words, and put it into the scripture collection pavilion and the school for the whole clan of monks to read, and then they returned to their original posts to resume their work.
As for Zhou Yang, he called Zhou Guangxiang to the cave on Lingxi Peak to talk alone.
"Although this trip to the Far West is short, it must have opened your eyes to the vastness of the outside world. ”
In the cave, Zhou Yang made a cup of spiritual tea for himself and Zhou Guangxiang, and then picked up the tea while enjoying the aroma of this special spiritual tea from the extreme west, while signaling the nephew to talk about his thoughts on this trip.
"If you want to say the biggest feeling, just like what you said at the beginning, Uncle Jiu, the frog at the bottom of the well glimpsed the vastness of the world outside the well, and was shocked!"
"Especially during the trip to Jinyang Kingdom, after observing the huge glazed sinkhole, my nephew really intuitively realized the power of the strong man in the Yuan Infant Stage, and also understood why Uncle Jiu had to go to Liuyun Continent to cultivate the immortal realm. ”
"I remember that Uncle Jiu taught your nephew before, saying that the best way to improve the family monk's sense of identity and loyalty to the family is to give them a path to progress, so that they know that as long as they are loyal to the family and make enough contributions to the family, they can continue to advance and enter a higher realm through the help given by the family. ”
"My nephew only now understands the true intention of Uncle Nine to teach your nephew like this at that time, and understands your good intentions!"
"You don't want to abandon the Zhou family, but you want to carry everything alone, and open up a road to immortality for the younger generations of the Zhou family, a road to heaven full of hope and light!"
Zhou Guangxiang looked at Zhou Yang with reverence, his expression was excited, full of admiration and admiration, and he proudly expressed his feelings in a passionate tone.
That's what you think?
Zhou Yang looked at his nephew with adoring eyes like a fan brother in front of him, and somehow there was a sense of joy in his heart.
The main reason why he went to Liuyun Continent to cultivate the immortal realm was of course to improve his cultivation and make it easier to find all kinds of spiritual objects he needed.
The second is to open a road to the outside world for the Zhou family, so that the younger generations of the Zhou family can walk out of the boundless sea of sand like themselves and see the breadth and excitement of the outside world.
As for why one person resists everything and opens up a road to immortality for the descendants of the family to become immortals, this is purely Zhou Guangxiang's own brain supplement.
Maybe when he becomes an immortal and becomes an ancestor, this can be said like this.
But now, if you talk about it in private, if you spread it, I'm afraid you will become a laughing stock in the circle of high-level monks.
Now, in response to Zhou Guangxiang's somewhat over-the-top answer, Zhou Yang did not deny anything, but just bowed his head slightly and expressed his opinion.
"It's good that you understand this, with the current power of the Zhou family, this boundless sand sea cultivation immortal realm has now become a cage that traps us, and what we will do in the future is to break this cage and contact the wider world outside. ”
"Uncle Jiu, I can be the hammer to break this cage, but after getting out of the cage, whether the Zhou family can survive in the more cruel world outside still depends on your own ability. ”
"This kind of thing in the environment of the strong, how to lead the survival and development of the family, Li Hong has done a good job in the extreme west, this time Fuyun's mother and son have also come back together, you can learn about the experience of the Zhou family over the years through them, and learn useful experience and measures to help you optimize the family management method. ”
"You must have also learned about the previous wars between the Great Bright Immortal Palace and the Backlight Alliance in the extreme west, as far as Uncle Jiu knows, the war situation of the monks in the major immortal cultivation realms in this world is similar to this, and in the future, the Zhou family will inevitably participate in the monk war when they walk out of the boundless sand sea immortal cultivation realm, and you can organize more family monks to conduct large-scale war drills in the future to form a family tradition, so that if you really go out in the future, you can shed a lot less blood." ”
"This may also be the last time Uncle Jiu and I will teach you these things, and the Zhou family in the future will really be completely handed over to you!"
Zhou Yang said in the end, he couldn't help but sigh lightly, there was reluctance, nostalgia, and a sense of relief.
As his cultivation level increased, more and more things to do in his cultivation, and he really didn't have much free time to worry about his family's affairs.
At that time, he would prefer to learn a few more magical powers, or improve his alchemy and talisman making techniques, or even accompany his fellow Daoists to travel to the immortal cultivation realm, which is much better than worrying about these things.
The main thing is that by doing the above things, they are all beneficial to his cultivation and can really benefit from them.
Worrying about family affairs will not only not be of much benefit to one's own cultivation, but may also stifle the talent of the younger generations of monks in this area.
The Zhou family has developed so far, and various systems have been perfected, and Zhou Yang does not feel that if he does it himself, he can do much better than Zhou Guangxiang.
As he said, the reason that restricted the Zhou family from going further was the geographical environment of the Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm, which was not something that he and the Zhou family had the ability to change and break now.
Since this is the case, he can only temporarily withdraw and work hard to improve himself, and after obtaining enough strength to break this shackle, he can lead the Zhou family to break through the shackles and enter a new world.
Before that, the Zhou family only needed to stabilize the internal situation, and in this regard, Zhou Yang believed that Zhou Guangxiang, a nephew, could do it.
Zhou Guangxiang had already understood his intentions at this time, and very understanding and agreed with his choice.
Therefore, after listening to his last words of admonition, when he stood up and bowed deeply to him, he said solemnly with a solemn expression: "My nephew can only do my best to guard the family for the ninth uncle, and wait for the day when the ninth uncle will return!"
"It's the return of enlightenment!"
Zhou Yang corrected.
Zhou Guangxiang hurriedly changed his words: "Yes, my nephew can only do my best to guard the family for the ninth uncle, and wait for the day when the ninth uncle returns!"
Then the uncle and nephew looked at each other and smiled, and everything was silent.
Next, Zhou Yang didn't stay in the Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm for long, after entrusting everything to Zhou Guangxiang, he took his apprentice Lu Xuewei and five young monks of the Zhou family to the Liuyun Continent Immortal Cultivation Realm together.
Leaving this time, Zhou Yang left the "Phantom Cloud Boat" magic weapon to Zhou Guangxiang, so that it would be convenient for the Zhou family monks to cross the Broken Cloud Mountain Range and go to Liuyun Continent to cultivate immortals in the future.
In the future, unless something big happened in the Boundless Sand Sea Cultivation Immortal Realm, and something happened that Zhou Yang had to come back to solve, he would not come back easily, and the task of connecting the two places could only be handed over to Zhou Guangxiang and them, the Purple Mansion Stage cultivators.
The uncle and nephew have already discussed, and every thirty or fifty years, they will let people go to the Liuyun Continent Immortal Cultivation Realm to find him to report some of the situation on the family side, and by the way, take away all kinds of spiritual objects purchased for the family side from him.
Without the magic weapon of "Phantom Cloud Boat", Zhou Yang led many people over the Broken Cloud Mountain Range at one time, and it was really a lot more dangerous, and he bumped into the demon beasts that suddenly appeared on the road several times.
Fortunately, his divine sense is strong, and he can always spot the figure of the demon beast in advance, or take it blatantly, or turn to avoid it in time, and nothing happens.
After arriving at the Liuyun Continent Immortal Cultivation Realm, Zhou Yang was separated from his apprentice Lu Xuewei when he was in Zhenyue Immortal City.
Lu Xuewei was no longer inconvenient to appear in the territory of the "Liuyun Business Alliance", so Zhou Yang asked her to take the five Zhou family juniors to settle in Xianyang City first, waiting for her next arrangement.
He himself went straight to Liuyun Immortal City.
When he arrived outside Liuyun Immortal City, Zhou Yang, who had changed his appearance into a monk in the extreme west, really found the wanted warrant issued by the Guo family for him, but the appearance on the wanted warrant was what he looked like after his disguise last time.
The Guo family was not stupid, and guessed that he might be disguised, so the wanted notice also attached Lu Xuewei's portrait, and also wrote the magic weapons and supernatural powers he used in the battle outside the "Yanyun Mountain" on it.
It's a pity that this kind of wanted warrant, which does not have a specific name or surname of the person wanted, has more symbolic meaning than practical significance, and it is strange to be able to find talents.
When the Imperial Beast Sect wanted Zhou Yang, he finally posted all kinds of information about him on the wanted notice, and that's it, it was just a shit luck to catch him once.
In the final analysis, the immortal cultivation realm is too big, the number of immortal cultivators is also too large, and the mobility is even greater.
Unless you have the blood, hair and other things of the wanted person, and then track them down with the help of various secret techniques, if you want to find someone in the form of a wanted warrant, you are really looking for a needle in a haystack, and whether you can find someone depends on luck.
However, just in case, Zhou Yang was still not in a hurry to meet with the Taoist companion Xiao Ying, but after reporting his safety through the "Lingxi Jade Pendant", he made a big purchase in Liuyun Immortal City.
He came over this time and brought all the twenty-three spirit fruits produced by the Zhou family's "Ning Yuan Fruit" tree, which were to be used to refine Zhuji Dan.
And dozens of furnaces to build the foundation of the Dan refining, even if there are main materials, the required auxiliary materials are not available in ordinary places.
Fortunately, he is now in Liuyun Immortal City, a place where you can buy most of the spiritual objects in the Immortal Cultivation Realm with spirit stones.
Hundreds of thousands of spirit stones were sprinkled, and he purchased a full thirty copies of auxiliary materials for refining Zhuji Dan.
Because there were often monks from sect families from all over the Liuyun Continent Immortal Cultivation Realm who came to Liuyun Immortal City to purchase large quantities of materials, Zhou Yang's purchase of a large number of materials for refining Zhuji Dan did not arouse anyone's suspicion.
His cultivation in the Jindan period is enough to make many people with ulterior motives dare not have any bad intentions.
If it weren't for the fact that he didn't want to make trouble in a high-profile manner now, Zhou Yang even wanted to post the information of buying "Jade Liquid Jindan" on the "Yi Gem" in the central business district of Liuyun Immortal City.
You must know that he is now carrying close to five million lower grade spirit stones on his body!
If the cultivator needs any treasure and cannot buy it through normal channels, he can pay a certain fee to enter the name of the thing he asks for and the price he is willing to pay, so that as long as someone is willing to sell, he can learn the contact information left by the person who wants to buy the treasure through the caretaker of the "Yi Gem", and contact the transaction by himself.
It's just that there is no one to guarantee this kind of transaction, once you choose to trade privately, you are in danger of being killed and robbed of the treasure if you are not careful.
Zhou Yang now just wants to quietly find a place to learn the "Canglong Body Refining Technique" and several other supernatural powers, and when he does these things well, and his strength has greatly increased without fear of any cultivator of the same realm, he will naturally come to this Liuyun Immortal City again, and buy all the treasures he wants with a lot of money.
After the things were purchased, Zhou Yang sent a message to Daoist Xiao Ying, asking her to walk out of the cave to join him, and then the two of them left Liuyun Immortal City together and rushed to Xianyang City.
It's just that the two of them have been on the road for a few days, and as soon as they officially flew out of the territory of the "Liuyun Business Alliance", Zhou Yang suddenly stopped, looked at the Taoist companions around him with a serious face and asked, "Ying'er, did you really follow my explanation and come out without notifying the Liu family?"
Xiao Ying has been a Taoist couple with him for many years, and when she heard him suddenly ask, she suddenly realized something, and couldn't help but turn white, and shook her head again and again: "No, since I received the news from your husband, the concubine body has put the elixir and the cave entrance and exit token recently refined for the Liu family in the cave mansion according to what you said, and she has not told the Liu family any news until she left." ”
"In this case, the husband understands, you wait and do your best to protect yourself, follow the husband, and don't leave the auspicious clouds at the feet of the husband. ”
Zhou Yang nodded slightly, explained a few words to the Taoist couple, and then smiled coldly, and said: "Since some people are tired of living and want to die, then it is good to fulfill them!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to understand that he had discovered his whereabouts, and twenty or thirty miles behind him, suddenly a white light flashed, and an ugly man with a hideous scar on the right side of his face appeared.
This ugly man doesn't look ugly, but his cultivation is a real Jindan seventh-layer, and his unique appearance, Zhou Yang actually felt a little familiar after seeing it.
After thinking about where this familiarity came from for a moment, he couldn't help but squint his eyes and asked, "Your Excellency is Wu Biao, who once bloodied the Falling Star Sect and plundered Red Moon City, and was nicknamed [Black-faced Man Tu]?"
"Black-faced Man Slaughter" Wu Biao, the true origin is unknown, once one person slaughtered the Falling Star Sect, a small sect with Jindan period monks in charge, and killed all the seven hundred and eight disciples who existed in the Mountain Gate of the Falling Star Sect at that time, and none of them escaped.
Later, he infiltrated the Red Moon Immortal City, killed the monks of the Red Moon Immortal Town, looted the entire Immortal City, and killed hundreds of people.
These are just the two biggest evil things that Wu Biao has ever done in the "Black Mask Man Slaughter", and other evil things he has done, I don't know how many, probably he himself has not counted.
The reason why Zhou Yang felt that this person was familiar was that when he entered Liuyun Immortal City, he saw a wanted notice about this person from the Guo family's wanted warrant.
And if he remembered correctly, this man's head was not worth much less than his.
And at this time, in the face of Zhou Yang's question, the earthworm-like scar on the face of the scar-faced man Wu Biao shook slightly, and he looked at him with sharp eyes and replied: "Since you know this seat and are so calm, it seems that you are really as they say, you can't be regarded as an ordinary mid-stage Jindan monk!"
They?
Zhou Yang's face was stunned, and then he showed a thoughtful look.
