While the coffins were being paused, Ninth Great Uncle Wang Zhide made a special trip back to Jade Spring Peak to send off his old brothers on their final journey.
After the worship, Wang Jize held a family meeting. Wang Daoyuan was allowed to sit in as a witness. Wang Zhide reported the information he had gathered: "Rumor has it that this battle was a trap set up by Cruel Sun Palace and Thousand Spirit Sect.
First, the Myriad Spirit Sect sent people to command the scattered demon beasts in the mountains to attack the Netherworld Sect's caravans passing by, luring the Netherworld Sect's cultivators to encircle and annihilate them. The Myriad Spirit Sect and the Cruel Sun Palace's cultivators turned around and annihilated the Netherworld Sect's cultivators.
According to a Qi Disciple loose cultivator who participated in the battle, when the spirit insects attacked, he ran west and was intercepted by Cruel Sun Palace's cultivators. When he turned east, he was intercepted by Thousand Spirit Sect's disciples. This loose cultivator's strength was outstanding. He broke through the encirclement and escaped. He temporarily settled down in Qing Li Market. This news was heard from him. "
"What was the situation after that?" Wang Jize asked.
"According to a Foundation Establishment loose cultivator who escaped, Cruel Sun Palace and Thousand Spirit Sect recruited loose cultivators in large numbers. They gathered several Aurous Core cultivators, twenty to thirty Zifu Disciples, no less than three hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators and countless Qi Disciple cultivators. They wanted to completely cut off the trade between Netherworld Sect and the demon race.
However, Netherworld Sect had already received the news. In addition to the three Zifu Disciples on the surface, there were four Aurous Core cultivators lying in ambush. However, they did not recruit loose cultivators on a large scale. The number of Foundation Establishment and Qi Disciple cultivators was far less than the other side.
In addition, Thousand Spirit Sect and Cruel Sun Palace were in the dark while Netherworld Sect was in the light. At first, Netherworld Sect suffered a great loss and was forced to let all their Qi Disciple cultivators leave.
This was exactly what the enemy wanted. They sent Qi Disciple and Foundation Establishment cultivators to kill a large number of Qi Disciple cultivators. Our Wang Family's loss was considered small. Many families were wiped out.
It was said that Netherworld Sect's cultivators were heavily targeted. The exact number of casualties was unknown.
After the Qi Disciple cultivators left, the Foundation Establishment cultivators and Zifu Disciples of both sides started a great battle.
Netherworld Sect's side did not have the advantage in numbers and suffered a great loss. Afterwards, they retreated to Gold Goose City and relied on the city's defenses to barely hold on.
During the retreat, more than a hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators were killed, while two Zifu Disciples were injured as well. However, the Netherworld Sect is fighting on their home ground, and their mountain gate is only tens of thousands of miles away from the Golden Goose City. With the continuous support of the Netherworld Sect, both sides have returned to the balance. "
Everyone fell into deep thought. Wang Daoyuan felt that something was wrong. He cupped his hands to Wang Jize and the other elders and said, "Taigong, elders, may I ask Ninth Great Uncle a few questions?"
Wang Jize nodded and said, "Alright, ask away."
Wang Daoyuan cupped his hands towards Wang Zhide and said, "Ninth Granduncle, what Grandson wants to ask is, the latest news you received was from a few days ago. Did a big battle break out? What's the situation?"
"The latest news is from three days ago," Wang Zhide stroked his long beard and pondered, "Three days ago, the two sides were still confronting each other in Jinyan City, and there was no war between Jindan Stage cultivators."
Wang Daoyuan was suddenly enlightened. "I was wondering why I felt that something was wrong. So that's why."
Everyone was puzzled. Wang Shouye pondered for a moment and seemed to have understood something.
Wang Jize smiled and said, "Dao Yuan, don't keep me in suspense. What did you discover? Tell us."
Wang Daoyuan pondered for a moment and said, "This big battle started in the territory of the Netherworld Sect. Normally, the Thousand Spirit Sect should have finished the battle quickly and left after the battle. It is reasonable to chase and kill them all the way to expand the battle results.
However, the Cruel Sun Palace and the Thousand Spirit Sect have been planning for several years. They are fully prepared and have the advantage in strength, but they did not try their best to intercept and kill them. Instead, they let the Netherworld Sect smoothly retreat into the Golden Goose City. This is the first abnormality.
The second abnormality is that the Netherworld Sect retreated into the Golden Goose City. With the city defense formation as support, the Thousand Spirit Sect could not take it down in a short time. According to common sense, they should retreat at this time, because the reinforcements of the Netherworld Sect may come at any time. At that time, the Thousand Spirit Sect and the Cruel Sun Palace may be completely wiped out.
The third abnormality is that the Thousand Spirit Sect not only did not retreat, but also did not attack the Golden Goose City. This may be a siege, but the reinforcements of the Netherworld Sect were not ambushed.
It can be seen that the Thousand Spirit Sect and the Cruel Sun Palace may play a big game, using the cultivators outside the Golden Goose City as bait to catch the big fish, the Netherworld Sect.
As for how to catch this big fish, there is too little information, so I can't see it. "
"Dao Yuan's words are reasonable, but the Thousand Spirit Sect and the Cruel Sun Palace do not have the ability to catch fish." Wang Shouye continued, "I also thought that the two sects would attract the high-level cultivators of the Netherworld Sect to the Golden Goose City and do their best to completely destroy the Netherworld Sect. But as far as I know, the Cruel Sun Palace neighbors the Wei Kingdom to the west and has a lot of conflicts with the Wei Kingdom. The Thousand Spirit Sect neighbors the Song Kingdom to the south and often fights with the Song Kingdom.
Therefore, the two sects will not do their best to find trouble with the Netherworld Sect, unless they are not afraid of being destroyed by the forces of the Song Kingdom and the Wei Kingdom.
The two sects will send at most half of their forces. Among the three major sects, the Netherworld Sect is ranked second, the other two are ranked first and third respectively, each sending half of their forces, which is about the same strength as the Netherworld Sect. Their strength is about the same, and the Netherworld Sect is fighting in their home territory, the other two sects will be lucky if they do not suffer losses, they do not have the ability to destroy the Netherworld Sect.
I think the two sects may want to divert the Netherworld Sect's main force in the Golden Goose City, and then sneak attack other places. As for where the sneak attack will be, I don't know, we also don't know where the Netherworld Sect's vital points are. They can't possibly attack the Netherworld Sect's mountain gate, right? "
Wang Shouye's words were reasonable and convincing, and everyone nodded to show their agreement.
Suddenly, a message came from the communication jade talisman: Received the news two days ago, the leaders of the Thousand Spirit Sect and the Cruel Sun Palace brought five Golden Core cultivators, twenty Zifu Realm cultivators, and more than two hundred Foundation Building cultivators to attack the Netherworld Sect's mountain gate.
Everyone looked at Wang Shouye with a strange expression. Wang Shouye blushed and said, "Well, Dao Yuan, when will you return the ten jars of Red Blood Wine you owe me?"
Wang Daoyuan smiled and said, "You are changing the topic, why are you so stiff?"
"Twelfth Uncle, have you been blessed by the gods? What do you say? "Wang Daoxing on the side interrupted.
"Well, this is just a coincidence, let's continue to talk about business." Wang Jize helped Wang Shouye to smooth things over.
"I don't understand, why did the other two sects attack the Netherworld Sect's mountain gate? The Netherworld Sect has been established for thousands of years, not to mention its foundation, just the Mountain Protection Formation, plus the Golden Core elders in the sect, even if the other two sects used all their strength, it would be impossible to quickly take it down.
Less than half of the people came, how could it be possible to take it down? It can't really be because of the Twelfth Uncle's mouth, right? "Wang Daoyuan said doubtfully.
"Dao Yuan, that's enough! If you mention this again, I will let you know my methods. "
Wang Daoyuan glanced at him contemptuously and said in his heart, "Your strongest method is to cheat wine, what other methods do you have?"
Wang Shouye saw Wang Daoyuan's eyes and expression and knew what he was thinking. He only wanted to drag him over, beat him up, and then snatch the jars of wine. But the situation was not suitable, so he endured it first and settled the score later.
