Wang Daoyuan and the clan leader went to the door behind the five-colored rock and started to set up the formation.
This formation was made up of several formation plates. Once the plates were buried underground, the formation would be activated as long as they were supplied with spiritual energy.
There was no need to worry about spiritual energy. Five Elements Daoist had connected this place to the spirit veins in the secret realm. They only needed to bury the formation plates in the right place to connect to the spirit veins.
After burying the formation plates, the clan leader took out a token. After activating it, the formation was activated immediately. After activating it again, the formation was closed.
Afterwards, he gave the token to Wang Daoyuan and said, "This is the token used to activate the formation. Don't lose it.
This formation is a third-grade formation left behind by the ancestor. There aren't many tokens left.
Only Foundation Establishment cultivators can use this token. Don't give it to anyone else.
There are still matters to take care of in the clan. I'll go back first. "
Wang Daoyuan felt it was a bit strange. There were Taigong, Ninth Great Uncle and Twelfth Uncle in the clan. What matter did the clan leader have to take care of personally?
Thus, he asked, "What happened? Did the Liang clan do something again? "
The clan leader smiled and said, "I really can't hide it from you. The Liang clan came up with another idea. They urged the Netherworld Sect to attack the Red Beard Bandits.
They haven't reached a consensus yet and it's not a big deal. They didn't plan to let you participate. "
Wang Daoyuan thought for a while and said, "I'll also return to Jade Spring Peak. I'll leave this place to Sixth Uncle and Fifth Great Uncle. There's nothing to worry about."
After giving some instructions to the six people who stayed behind, the two of them left the Five Elements Secret Realm and opened the portal formation.
As soon as Wang Daoyuan stepped out of the portal, the golden wings descended from the sky and landed on his shoulder.
He put the golden wings back into the space in the spiritual pearl and released the soul-chasing bees to scout the way. The two of them quickly returned to the clan.
When they returned to Jade Spring Peak, they saw an old cultivator wearing a green robe chatting with Taigong under the ancient pine tree.
This person's robe was embroidered with a poplar tree. He was a cultivator of the Yang clan.
To be able to make Taigong come out personally, this person was definitely a Foundation Establishment cultivator. Moreover, his seniority was not low.
The clan leader stepped forward and bowed to the Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Yang clan, "Greetings, Senior."
Wang Daoyuan naturally followed suit and bowed, calling him Senior.
The Yang Family Ancestor had always considered himself to be the junior of the Wang Family Ancestor and was one generation higher than Taigong.
For the Patriarch to call this person 'Senior' meant that he was of the same generation as Taigong. This person was the son of the Yang Family's Old Ancestor.
The Yang Clan's Foundation Establishment cultivator smiled and said, "The two of you are also in the Foundation Establishment realm. You can address each other as equals."
The Patriarch repeatedly said that he did not dare.
The Yang Family senior looked at Wang Daoyuan and asked, "This Little Friend looks quite young. You should be from the Dao generation, right?"
Wang Daoyuan cupped his hands and said, "Replying to Senior, this junior's name is Wang Daoyuan."
He thought for a moment and asked, "I remember that more than twenty years ago, my father said that there was a junior in the Wang family called Wang Daoyuan who was not a fish in a pond. He was probably talking about you.
Sure enough, he was not simple. He had built his foundation at such a young age.
If I remember correctly, you are still of my Yang Family bloodline? "
Wang Daoyuan replied, "Yes. According to the secular world's hierarchy, I am the eighth generation descendant of Old Ancestor Yang."
The Yang Clan's Foundation Establishment cultivator smiled and said, "Good! The two families have intermarried for generations, and now there is finally a Foundation Establishment junior with the bloodline of both families.
In the future, if the Yang Family is in trouble, I hope that you can help the Yang Family for the sake of your bloodline. "
Wang Daoyuan was a little surprised. What did he mean?
These words were not said casually.
Could it be that the Yang Family was in trouble and had something to ask of the Wang Family? Otherwise, there was no need to pull strings in the first place.
The last sentence, which said that he would take care of the Yang Family in the future, implied that he needed the Wang Family's help now.
The Yang Family's Old Ancestor was still alive. If the Yang Family could not solve the problem, how could the Wang Family help?
He was at a loss. There was something he did not know about, so he did not know how to answer.
As a Foundation Establishment cultivator, his words and actions could represent the family. His answer was equivalent to the Wang Family's attitude.
Perhaps seeing his dilemma, Taigong smiled and said, "Little Brother, what are you saying? The two families are one, and there is no distinction between each other. The Yang Family's matters are my Wang Family's matters."
The Yang Family's Foundation Establishment stood up and said, "With Elder Brother's words, I am relieved. There are still matters to attend to in the family, so I will return first."
Wang Daoyuan and the family head sent him down the mountain together.
When the two returned, Wang Daoyuan asked, "Taigong, what does this Senior Yang mean? The Yang Family has something to ask of our Wang Family?"
Wang Jize sighed and said, "Liang Liang, that old man, has figured out the Yang Family's bloodline.
A few years ago, the Liang Family's properties were attacked by the Red Beard Bandits, and the family members suffered heavy losses.
In these few years, the Red Beard Bandits secretly attacked the Liang Family several times, and the Liang Family lost many family members.
In order to completely eliminate the threat of the Red Beard Bandits, Liang Liang wanted the Underworld Sect to take the lead and recruit all the families to eliminate the Red Beard Bandits.
The Underworld Sect was also divided on this matter internally.
The Red Beard Bandits only attacked the Liang Family, and the Underworld Sect itself did not suffer any losses.
The west side was also fighting fiercely with the Cruel Sun Palace, so the upper echelons did not want to care about this matter.
Liang Liang used many connections before the upper echelons relented, saying that whether to attack or not depended on the opinions of the nearby families.
The Liang Family threw out some benefits and made the surrounding families agree to attack the Red Beard Bandits.
The benefit given to our Wang Family was a Tier Two cinnabar mine on the north bank of Clear Stream, not too far from Mirror Iron Mountain.
The benefit given to the Meng Family was a small mine with a spirit vein in the northwest of Clear Glass Market.
The benefit given to the Yang Family was three mines on the south bank of Clear Stream.
Our Wang Family and Meng Family do not need these at all, but the Yang Family is crazy about the waterway port. This is the best chance to take down the port of Clear Stream.
Therefore, the Yang Family's intention is to agree to suppress the Red Beard Bandits and eat this benefit.
Isn't this person here to persuade our Wang Family? "
Wang Daoyuan sucked in a cold breath and said, "The Liang Family also has capable people! This is an overt scheme, taking advantage of the fact that the Yang Family is unwilling to give up the port of Clear Stream.
They also know that our Wang Family and Meng Family do not dare to fall out with the Yang Family.
Moreover, this back and forth, the Liang Family did not suffer a single loss, and even dragged our three families into the water. "
The clan leader asked, "The Liang Family paid such a high price, how can you say that they did not suffer a single loss?"
Wang Daoyuan answered, "The Liang Family was bullied by the Red Beard Bandits. They should have lost about a third of their cultivators, and won't be able to recover for several decades.
Although the current Liang Family is barely able to defend all of their properties, the Red Beard Bandits will not give up so easily.
If the Liang Family wants to protect themselves, they must give up some of their properties and hole up near the core area.
If I remember correctly, the properties that the Liang Family gave up were all more than three hundred kilometers away from Clear Sky Peak.
Within three hundred kilometers, the Liang Family's late stage Foundation Establishment cultivators would be able to provide support in about fifteen minutes if they rushed with all their might.
If they were any further, they would not be able to provide support in a short period of time. If they were ambushed by the Red Beard Bandits, it is very likely that they would lose their clansmen.
The Liang Family could not defend those properties and could only sell them.
Even if our three families did not agree, the Liang Family would still have to give up those properties.
They gave away some things that they could not hold on to in the first place, at most they would have to pay a few spirit stones. Can spirit stones be considered a price? "
Grand Duke and the clan leader both nodded in agreement.
Grand Duke shook his head helplessly and said, "The Yang Family has been blinded by profit, wanting to swallow the meat as soon as they see it. They did not think about why the Liang Family sent the meat into their own mouths.
Sigh, it's no wonder that the Yang Family does not have a port, and transportation is laborious.
But why can't they wait a little longer?
The Yang Family has so many people, they can't all be short-sighted people, right? "
Wang Daoyuan pondered for a while and said, "I was wondering what was wrong. So the Liang Family still had a scheme.
We agreed to fight the Red Beard Bandits, so we had to send people, and we were dragged into the water by the Liang Family.
If the Red Beard Bandits were destroyed, the Liang Family would benefit the most, and they would not have to take a beating.
What if they could not be destroyed? "
