The three Yuan Shi brothers were taken aback, they all knew that the higher the parents of the gods and demons, the better the heirs, but they didn't expect it to be so good.

The upper god is not simple, Tianjiao, the great god, and even the legendary ancestor, the Sanqing brothers empathize, if they are the great gods of foreign clans, knowing the existence of Shangji, they will inevitably go all out to snatch their wives.

Donghua Shang said to Taishang: "Actually, I am very optimistic about you marrying Ji'er, but after knowing that Ji'er has obtained merit, I hesitated, your Taoism is too low, once the news of Ji'er is leaked, it will inevitably cause the peep of the gods and demons at the god level, let alone you, even my clan can't keep Ji'er, so I really want you to break the marriage contract later, but I am a little reluctant, I said I don't know what to do, I really don't know." ”

Seeing that Taishang didn't speak, Donghua said: "Now that Ji'er has been taken away by the You clan, it's actually a good thing, if you can, I suggest that your marriage contract with Ji'er be stopped, what do you think?"

Taishang knelt down and said, "Since I have a marriage contract with my sister-in-law, how can I give up, and I hope that the father will fulfill it." ”

This is the first time that Taishang has called Donghua Shangxiang the Father.

Prime Minister Donghua looked at Taishang and said, "Taishang, you have more responsibility than feelings for your sister." The fact that his wife was taken away by a foreigner happens once or twice a year in the flood wilderness, and the most important thing for gods and demons is their own cultivation, so why bother?"

Taishang said: "Father, you also said, I am responsible for my sister-in-law, since it is a responsibility, I will be responsible to the end, now my wife has been taken away, if I can't save my sister-in-law, then what face do I have to be her husband." ”

Donghua said: "Okay, since you insist on this marriage contract, I won't be reluctant, but if you want to save Shangji, you don't have to be in a hurry." ”

Taishang looked at Donghua Shangxiang and didn't understand what it meant.

Donghua said: "The You clan is one of the most powerful clans in the wilderness, not to mention you now, even if you ask my father to help, you may not be able to successfully rescue your son." But Hi'er is now the lower god, to cultivate to the upper god, it will take at least seven or eight eons of time, before the upper god, the patriarch of the You'er clan will not force Hi'er to intermate, if you can be promoted to the great god during this time, you will have a chance to snatch back Hi'er, if not............"

Taishang was silent, a few tribulations of time to be promoted to the great god, it is not for nothing in the history of the flood wilderness, but all of them are gods and demons with top talents, no matter how confident Taishang is in himself, he does not dare to guarantee that he can be promoted to the great god, let alone only use a few tribulations of time.

Taishang said: "The father is above, the child can't wait that long, and even if he waits for that long, the child can't guarantee that he can be promoted to the great god, the child asks the father for permission, let the child go to the ghost clan now." ”

Donghua said angrily: "What are you doing in the Ghost Clan?

Taishang said: "Because I am afraid of revenge against the clan, I have not fulfilled my responsibilities as a husband to my sister-in-law since I made a marriage contract with my sister-in-law, and I am really ashamed." If I can't save my daughter, I will simply die in front of my sister, so that my child can marry the ghost clan with peace of mind. It's my dedication to my sister-in-law. ”

Prime Minister Donghua took a long breath and persuaded: "You are looking for death anyway, why don't you wait for a few calamities, maybe there is still room for maneuver." ”

Taishang said: "The child is afraid. ”

Prime Minister Donghua asked, "What are you afraid of?"

Taishang said: "I'm afraid that I won't dare to die when the time comes." ”

Prime Minister Donghua was silent.

Taishang bowed down again: "Pray that God the Father will fulfill it." ”

Prime Minister Donghua looked at Taishang for a long time, and said, "Taishang, you prepare, three days later, you go with me to my father's family." ”

Taishang looked up at Donghua.

Donghua said: "Since you call me a father, I naturally can't watch you commit suicide, the ghost of the ghost clan is already the way of the big devil, let alone you, even I have no choice, only by begging my father to make a move, there is a glimmer of life." ”

Taishang perked up and seemed to see a ray of light.

Donghua said: "Yuan Shi, Lingbao, you also go together." ”

Yuan Shi was surprised: "Can we go too?"

Donghua said: "Of course you can, Feng Chun has fallen, the three of you are the three best children I have ever seen, I am willing to accept you three as my righteous sons, so that you can live with me now, and in the future you will rebuild the Qing clan, and you don't have to worry about bloodline disputes, how about it?"

The three brothers were pleasantly surprised, knelt down and bowed, "Father God is above, and the child is worshipped." ”

According to the rules of the wilderness, people of the dead clan like Sanqing, gods and demons who are unwilling to give up their original surnames and wishes of the reincarnation will often join other clans as righteous sons. Sanqing defected to the Shang clan back then, and this was the plan.

But at that time, the three brothers did not see the patriarch Donghua Shangxiang, and Taishang was forced by Fengchun again, and the matter of worshipping his father-in-law could not be declared. So Taishang was forced to agree to join the Shang clan in exchange for the protection of the Shang clan and the two younger brothers, and now the Prime Minister of Donghua proposed to recognize Sanqing as a righteous son, which can be regarded as solving the problem that the three brothers are not only protected by the Shang clan, but also embarrassed in the Shang clan.

Donghua touched his beard and said with a smile: "The future of the Shang clan depends on you three brothers. ”

"Yes. The three brothers of the beginning responded.

Three days later, Prime Minister Donghua took the three Yuan Shi brothers on the road.

Along the way, Prime Minister Donghua introduced the situation of his father's family to the three brothers.

The father of the Donghua Prime Minister is called Hua Xuan, and the clan formed is called the Hua Clan, which is the most powerful clan in the nearby area, with more than 200 members, Hua Xuan already has the Tao of the Great God, and his descendants have many people who have established their own clans, just like the Donghua Prime Minister, counting the sub-clans, the Chinese can mobilize as many as 1,000 warrior-level gods and demons.

The Sanqing brothers sighed at the strength of the Chinese people, and compared with the Qing people, it was like the difference between giants and ants.

Seems to understand the thoughts of the three brothers, Donghua Shang said to the Sanqing brothers: "Gods and demons from big clans like us, don't look at the gods and demons who are generally higher than the gods and demons of small clans, in fact, compared to small clans like the Qing clan, it is far behind, you have been trying to hunt in the flood wilderness since the time of the god Mao, and every progress you make in Taoism is the result of your own efforts, and the members of the big clan are basically Dao Xing who have been improved by external forces such as heaven and earth treasures, and even Dao strange things, and their combat effectiveness is much worse." So when I established the clan, I didn't dare to be completely independent, and I had to keep the surname Donghua. ”

Yuan Shi listened to what Prime Minister Donghua said, nodded, and understood a problem.

The surname of the gods and demons of the flood wilderness is a general term, in fact, the surname and the surname are separated, the surname is the avenue, there are six avenues in the flood wilderness today, so there are six kinds of surnames, corresponding to the positive, demon, merit, cause and effect, luck and time.

The clan is derived from the name of the clan to which the gods and demons belong.

Representing the origin of the gods and demons, they generally take their parents' clans as their own clans, until the gods and demons establish their own clans, the original clans will be abandoned, and their own names will become the clans of the new clan.

For example, Yuan Shi takes Zheng as the surname, Yuqing as the clan, and Yuan Shi as the name, and Yuqing is the clan, Yu is the mother's clan, and Qing is the father's clan, representing the Yu branch of the Qing clan from the Yuan Shi.

But when Yuan Shi established his own clan, the Yuqing clan was no longer used, but with Yuan as the clan, and the established clan was the Yuan clan.

Yuan Shi has always wondered why the Prime Minister of Donghua established the Shang family, and the heirs all have the upper surname, but the Prime Minister of Donghua still retains the surname of Donghua.

After listening to the explanation of Prime Minister Donghua, Yuan Shi understood the reason.

However, Yuan Shi did not underestimate the Prime Minister of Donghua, the head of the clan, the first consideration was the continuation of the clan, and the Prime Minister of Donghua retained the surname of Donghua, at least so that outsiders could not dare to despise the Shang clan.

Not to mention anything else, without the surname Donghua in town, I am afraid that the You clan will not use conspiracy and tricks to capture him, but directly start a war and destroy the entire Shang clan.

Donghua said: "So, now in the Shang clan, I am most optimistic about your three brothers, and this time I will bring you back to the Chinese clan, so that you can gain some knowledge." ”

"Yes!" the three brothers nodded.

Donghua said: "A super clan like the Hua clan has no worries about survival, so the clan members like to talk about the Tao, talk about the Tao, you should have all experienced it." ”

The three of them nodded.

Donghua Shangxiang said: "After you arrive at the Chinese clan, someone will definitely come to you to discuss, don't be afraid, take out all your skills, try to win a few games, the more you win, the more attention you will get, especially Taishang you." ”

"Me?" Taishang wondered.

Prime Minister Donghua nodded and said, "Our purpose this time is to ask my father to take action, but in the eyes of my father, my daughter has to marry outside anyway, marry you, marry the You Clan, and marry the You Clan, generally speaking, there is no need to go to war with a super clan like the You Clan for you." Therefore, Taishang must show a certain potential, so that the Father feels that it is worth taking action for you. In the same way, the strength of your two brothers will also affect the Father's decision. ”

After hearing this, the three brothers nodded solemnly: "Understood." ”

Prime Minister Donghua continued: "Taishang, I saw you make a move back then, there is no problem, Lingbao, I haven't seen you make a move, do your best." As for the beginning ......"

Prime Minister Donghua groaned: "I heard Jiu You Sha say, are you Tianjiao?"

Yuan Shi smiled bitterly: "Father is above, the child does not have the intention to hide the identity of Tianjiao, but my Tianjiao is really ......"

Yuan Shi told his own experience, but he didn't say what he guessed was accompanied by an unknown avenue.

Donghua said: "Don't be arrogant, in the wilderness, there has never been an incompetent Tianjiao, and situations like you often happen." ”

Yuan Shi's eyes lit up.

Donghua said: "Although Tianjiao is the pride of the sky, but no Tianjiao's cultivation is smooth sailing, every Tianjiao will always encounter all kinds of difficulties, your predicament is just one of them, the strongest Tianjiao in the history of the flood wilderness, the current eyebrows of the ancestor, and your situation is very similar." Raising eyebrows accompanied by a whole avenue, although a birth is a middle god, but in the time of more than two eons, the Tao has not been allowed to advance, until the five decays of heaven and man are about to come, suddenly enlightened, since then the practice has been smooth sailing, and later became the third ancestor of the flood wilderness. ”

Yuan Shi was overjoyed, and the Prime Minister Donghua just said that the predicament he and the Raised Eyebrow Ancestor encountered were very similar, but Yuan Shi thought that the dilemma was similar, whether it was because he and the Raised Eyebrow Ancestor had the same talent, so the predicament would be the same.

Yuan Shidao: "Father, can you tell me the story of the Raised Eyebrow Ancestor, especially how he practiced after he became enlightened. ”

Donghua smiled: "You really asked the right person, for the cultivation story of the first-level figure of the ancestor god, it is really only circulated in an ancient clan like the Hua clan." ”

Donghua Shangxiang said: "The cultivation of gods and demons is to improve the Tao through the law of perception, and the ancestor of the eyebrows was born with a whole avenue, and the general cultivation methods of the gods and demons cannot be applied at all, so after the ancestor of the eyebrows became enlightened, he tried to sense the entire avenue from a macro perspective, and the result really made him walk out of a new path of cultivation, so the path traveled thousands of miles in a day............"

The author's question: What is the fate of Shang Ji? Combined with the conjecture of later generations.
