There were eleven people in the Wang Clan, except for the Clan Leader, the two elders Wang Shouye and Wang Zhiming, and the two juniors Wang Daoyuan and Wang Daoxing, the other six people were all white-haired old men.
These six people were all from the 'Zhi' generation, and they were all old cultivators who did not have a high cultivation base and had no skills.
Two of them were more than 110 years old, and the lifespan of a Qi Refining cultivator was only 120 years old. Cultivators fought with others all their lives, and it was inevitable that there would be hidden injuries that would affect their lifespan. Therefore, very few cultivators could live to the limit of their lifespan, and these two granduncles could pass away at any time.
The other four were slightly younger, but they were also more than 100 years old.
To put it bluntly, the six of them were cannon fodder. Whenever there was a conscription, most of the people sent by the clan were cannon fodder.
The purpose of the sect conscripting cultivators from the affiliated forces was to be cannon fodder for the sect cultivators and reduce the casualties of the sect cultivators.
The clans were not fools. For the continuation of the clan, it was impossible to send the clan members with good aptitude or skills to die. Therefore, the clan members who were older and had no skills were pulled out to make up the numbers.
Of course, these cannon fodder would not die in vain. Once they were used as cannon fodder, regardless of whether they were dead or alive, the clan would give them a sum of spirit stones or resources. Once they died in battle, the sect that issued the conscription order would also give them a pension.
Originally, they did not have many years to live, but in order for their descendants to get more resources and go further on the path of cultivation, they were willing to die in battle for the clan.
Wang Zhian was a Foundation Establishment cultivator and could fly on his sword. Golden Goose City was more than 5,000 miles away from Jade Spring Peak, and he could make a round trip in half a day.
However, Wang Daoyuan and the others were Qi Refining cultivators. Unless they had flying magic tools or flying spirit beasts, they could only rely on their two legs to hurry.
With ten Qi Refining cultivators to take care of, Wang Zhian naturally could not fly on his sword and could only walk with them.
However, Foundation Establishment was Foundation Establishment after all. Even if they were walking, it was not something that Qi Refining cultivators could catch up with. The ten Qi Refining cultivators could only use the Divine Travel Talisman and activate it with all their strength to barely keep up with Wang Zhian.
The group of people hurried on foot. In order to take care of the six old granduncles, they only walked seven to eight hundred miles a day, and finally arrived at Golden Goose City on the seventh day.
The Golden Goose City had a circumference of more than ten miles, which was not big among the mortal cities. The city wall was built with rocks mined from Mount Huiyan. It was densely engraved with runes, giving off an indestructible feeling.
The city wall was about thirty meters tall. Giant crossbows were placed on top of the battlements, and the arrowheads were shining with a cold light. Unfortunately, Wang Daoyuan knew nothing about refining tools, so he couldn't tell what grade the magic tool was.
When the group arrived at the city gate, there was already a large group of people queuing up.
The crowd was divided into two groups. In one group, there were dozens of people wearing the same clothes. They were all cultivators from the affiliated forces of the Netherworld Sect. The other group of people was dressed in a disorderly manner. They were either in groups of three to five or standing alone outside the crowd. It was a bit of a stretch to say that they were queuing. These people were all Rogue Cultivators recruited by the Netherworld Sect.
The group from the Wang family was dressed in white Daoist robes. Apart from the golden dragon fish embroidered on the cuffs, they looked plain and unadorned. There weren't many of them, so they didn't attract much attention as they lined up at the back of the group.
It was quite troublesome for a group of Rogue Cultivators to enter the city. They also needed to register their name, cultivation level, and other information before they could enter the city.
The group of Clan cultivators entered the city relatively quickly. They just needed to show their conscription order and prove their identity to get a pass. Even so, a Clan had at least ten people and at most dozens of people. It was also very time-consuming to register them one by one.
The group from the Wang family queued for more than four hours. Finally, there was only one Clan left in front.
At this time, a sharp eagle cry came from the sky. Looking up, a bird appeared in the sky in the west. It was only a silhouette and couldn't be seen clearly.
When the bird came closer, it turned out to be a giant golden eagle. It emitted the pressure of a Zifu Realm cultivator. The Qi Refining cultivators in the queue all turned pale and struggled to circulate their spiritual power to resist.
There were more than thirty people sitting on the back of the golden eagle. Among them, there were three Foundation Establishment cultivators and the rest were late stage Qi Refining cultivators. This strength was enough to forcibly break into the Wang family's Jade Spring Peak.
The golden eagle landed and the thirty people dismounted. They wore golden Daoist robes and arrogantly walked past the people in the queue to get their passes.
Apart from the two brothers Wang Daoyuan and Wang Daoxing, the rest of the Wang family were all experienced old foxes. Wang Daoyuan had also lived two lives, so he naturally wouldn't be angered. Wang Daoxing's temper wasn't good. Just as he was about to flare up, he was stopped by Wang Shouye and Wang Daoyuan.
The Wang family didn't say anything, and the Clans behind them didn't bother to pay them any attention.
However, the Li family at the front of the queue wasn't happy. The Li family also had the intention of training their young disciples, so they brought a lot of young people. Someone disregarded their Clan like this. The young people couldn't take it lying down.
A young disciple of the Li family couldn't bear it anymore. He walked forward and angrily rebuked, "Seeing that you're also from a Cultivation family, don't you even understand the principle of first come first serve? You're a disgrace to our Cultivation family. "
The leading golden-robed man looked to be in his forties. His appearance was rather unique, like a basketball with half a football on it. Coupled with his golden robe, if he had a copper coin in his mouth, he would be a living three-legged golden toad. He could be placed in a shop to attract money.
Hearing someone rebuke him, he turned around and saw that it was only a young man in the middle stage of Qi Refining. The "golden toad" couldn't help but fly into a rage out of humiliation. "Little brat, you're not even fully grown yet you dare to yell here. You don't even know how to respect your elders. I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of your elders."
After saying that, he waved his palm. A beam of golden light shot towards the young man from the Li Clan who had spoken out.
The leader of the Li family was the Clan Leader, who was also a Foundation Establishment cultivator. He reached out his hand to block the golden light. "Daoyou has such a big temper. Even if my Li family's disciples are in the wrong, it's not up to you to teach them a lesson. Besides, he's right."
The "golden toad" was at a loss for words. His face turned red. Three Foundation Establishment cultivators from his family stood out, intending to use their power to suppress them.
The Li family only had two Foundation Establishment cultivators and twenty Qi Refining cultivators. Many of them were in the middle stage of Qi Refining.
With one less Foundation Establishment cultivator, the Qi Refining cultivators were at a disadvantage. Once the battle started, the Li family would definitely lose.
The Li family's Clan Leader was in a difficult position. He was already in a difficult position. If they fought, they definitely wouldn't be able to win. The family's disciples would suffer heavy losses. If they gave in, it would be shameful and they would be blackmailed.
Just as he was in a dilemma, a Foundation Establishment cultivator wearing a white robe and carrying a long sword on his back walked forward. He advised, "It's better to squash enmity than to keep it alive. Everyone is here to wipe out the demon beasts. Why make things unpleasant over such a small matter? Don't fight among yourselves and delay the important matters. "
This white robed cultivator was Wang Zhian. Wang Zhian and the Li family's Clan Leader Li Xinghe had been good friends for many years. Seeing his good friend in trouble, he naturally wanted to help.
Now that the Wang family still had some face in the Netherworld Sect, he should be able to help them out by persuading them.
Who knew that this "Golden Toad" was a hothead. Not only did he not take advantage of the situation, he even went from bad to worse. He scolded Wang Shouye, "You dare to interfere in this matter? Looks like the Wang family's wings have hardened. Don't think that the Netherworld Sect will care about you just because you offered the Clear River Carp.
How dare the remnants of the Zhao family be so impudent in front of me. My family's Patriarch is an elder of the Netherworld Sect. Your Wang family is just a dog raised by the Netherworld Sect. How dare you bare your teeth in front of the Patriarch? You must be tired of living! "
Before he finished speaking, the Wang family was furious and took out their magic tools. Wang Daoyuan also took out his Profound Yang Sword and got into position. He was just waiting for the Clan Leader's order to kill them.
Previously, the golden-robed family was arrogant and didn't target any family. But now, they were directly insulting the Wang family. If they were to tolerate this, the Wang family wouldn't be able to raise their heads in front of others anymore.
When the words of "Golden Toad" came out, not only were the Wang family's disciples furious, most of the family's cultivators were unhappy.
