Just like every day, Ronghua City opened its gate early in the morning. But today, Ronghua City didn't seem to be very peaceful. The people of Ronghua City noticed that there were a lot of people wearing green clothes in the city. Not only were these people wearing the same color, but the style of their clothes was also similar. Moreover, each of them looked very sturdy, but their expressions were very cold, and even had a trace of anger.
At the same time, the ordinary people of Ronghua City also noticed that the disciples of the big clans who usually swaggered around in the city were nowhere to be seen today. Even if they occasionally saw one of them, they would lower their head and hurriedly pass by. They didn't dare to be as domineering as they usually were.
This made the ordinary people of Ronghua City curious and surprised. They weren't idiots. When they saw the appearance of the disciples of the big clans, they knew that there must be some extraordinary people in Ronghua City. Otherwise, the disciples of the big clans wouldn't have such an expression on their faces.
In Ronghua City, there was a pharmacy called the Hu Clan. The atmosphere was even more tense. The disciples of the Hu Clan who were wearing green clothes gathered in the backyard of the pharmacy. They looked unfriendly as they stared at the room in the backyard of the pharmacy.
In this room, there were several people sitting. The one in the front was Hu Ding. Next to Hu Ding, there were several people sitting. The soul objects of these people were all Plant Souls. Moreover, there were some similarities between their eyebrows. At first glance, one could tell that they were all disciples of the Hu Clan.
Hu Ding looked at everyone and said, "Remember, the main task this time is to get Little Xin's Little Crane Grass. If you encounter the people of the Liu Clan during this process, kill them!"
Everyone nodded. Although the Hu Clan was a famous big clan in the Soul World, and their strength was also very strong, but the principle of the Hu Clan had always been to be kind to others. Therefore, the Hu Clan didn't have many enemies in the continent. The enmity of the Hu Clan with the Liu Clan couldn't be blamed on the Hu Clan at all.
A few generations ago, the Liu Clan was also a big clan. At that time, the most beloved son of the Liu Clan was seriously ill. They had invited many pharmacists, but none of them could cure him. In the end, the Liu Clan had no choice but to bring his son to the Hu Clan for treatment. However, the child was too sick, and there was almost no hope of saving him. The Hu Clan had also made it clear to the other clan. At the same time, the Hu Clan, in the spirit of a doctor, tried to save the child. In the end, the Hu Clan had tried their best to save the child.
Although the Hu Clan couldn't save the child, the Hu Clan still couldn't save the child. This wasn't a big deal. After all, there was no doctor who dared to say that he could save the person. Moreover, the Liu Clan's child was seriously ill. The Hu Clan had also made it clear to him that the Hu Clan had done their best.
However, from then on, the Liu Clan became hostile towards the Hu Clan. He blamed the Hu Clan for not being able to save his child. From then on, this enmity was formed. The Liu Clan began to provoke the Hu Clan whenever they had nothing to do. They even openly went against the Hu Clan.
Although the Hu Clan was strong, they had always been kind to others. Therefore, they didn't take the Liu Clan's provocation to heart. Frankly speaking, in the Hu Clan's opinion, the Liu Clan didn't have the qualifications to provoke the Hu Clan. Naturally, there was another reason, the Liu Clan was an enemy left behind by Gu Yi.
After the Hu Clan suffered a loss, they learned to be smart. They wouldn't easily reveal their strength. If they were a Great Clan, then they would be very strong. But at the same time, they also had a good relationship with the other Great Clans. This would attract the attention of the rulers. Because of this, the Hu Clan had always been very low-key. In their opinion, although the Liu Clan's provocation was annoying, it also had some benefits. But in the Hu Clan's opinion, although the Liu Clan's provocation was annoying, it also had some benefits.
However, they didn't think that the Liu Clan would become more and more excessive. They thought that the Hu Clan was just so-so and couldn't do anything to them. Last time, the Liu Clan openly attacked the Grassy Ship, as well as Hu Xian 'er's ship. Naturally, the Hu Clan wouldn't let the Liu Clan off so easily. Therefore, they secretly suppressed the Liu Clan.
This was because the Hu Clan didn't want to go too far in order to avoid attracting attention. However, even if they suppressed the Hu Clan, the Liu Clan still couldn't afford it. In the past two years, the Liu Clan's losses were very big. Most importantly, besides the Plant Masters cultivated by the Hu Clan, there were no other Plant Masters who were willing to work for the Hu Clan.
And the Plant Masters cultivated by the Hu Clan couldn't buy anything useful from the Plant Master Association. When they exchanged their experiences with other people, nobody was willing to pay attention to them. The Hu Clan was also pushed aside by the Plant Master Association.
This blow was very fatal for the Liu Clan. Although the Liu Clan did business, the output of their fields was the foundation of the clan. Now that the output of their fields had decreased a lot, this made the Liu Clan even more ruthless towards the Hu Clan.
Originally, the Hu Clan just wanted to teach the Liu Clan a lesson and make them behave. However, they didn't think that the Liu Clan's people were just like their souls. They were full of beasts. Not only did the Hu Clan's actions not make the Liu Clan restrain themselves, they even prepared to teach the Hu Clan a lesson. They wanted the Hu Clan to understand that they shouldn't easily provoke the Liu Clan.
In the eyes of the Hu Clan, this was very laughable. However, in the eyes of the Liu Clan, this was a matter of course. For so many years, they had been looking for trouble with the Hu Clan. Although the Hu Clan would sometimes fight back, most of the time, the Hu Clan chose to endure. This made the Liu Clan feel superior to the Hu Clan. In their view, the Hu Clan was a coward who didn't dare to go against the Liu Clan. Now that the Hu Clan dealt with the Liu Clan, not only did it not make the Liu Clan behave, it made the Liu Clan even angrier.
This was like a villain. This villain was just a little hooligan, but he would often bully people for fun. And most of the time, the other party wouldn't be like him. Even if he scolded them, they wouldn't talk back.
But suddenly, one day, when he wanted to bully that person, that person would beat him up. At this time, not only would this villain not feel afraid, but he would also feel extremely angry. Because in his view, he should bully the other party, and the other party shouldn't resist. Resistance was an original sin, so he had to take revenge.
Unfortunately, this time, the Liu Clan chose the wrong person. If they attacked an ordinary disciple of the Hu Clan, the Hu Clan wouldn't have such a big reaction. But this time, they chose the little crane grass as their target. This was indeed touching the Hu Clan's reverse scale.
Not to mention the talent of the little crane grass, just the fact that he was Hu Yuan's disciple was already a big taboo for the Hu Clan. Hu Yuan was the Great Elder of the Hu Clan. If they couldn't even protect the disciple of the Great Elder of the Hu Clan, then how could the Hu Clan have a foothold in the Soul World? So this time, the Hu Clan was ruthless. They must teach the Liu Clan a lesson. This could be seen from Hu Ding's order. The Hu Clan had never issued such an order before.
Hu Ding looked at everyone and said in a deep voice, "This time, Hu Quan and the others died in battle, but there's still no news about Hu Xin's little crane grass. Instead, there's news that the Liu Clan seems to be looking for something everywhere. From this point, it can be seen that Hu Xin and the little crane grass might still be safe. It hasn't fallen into the hands of the Liu Clan yet. So you must look for it carefully. Notify everyone, let's take action." Everyone responded in unison, then turned around and left.
Hu Ding waited until everyone left before he let out a sigh of relief. But his eyes flashed with a trace of sharpness. This time, Hu Ding was really angry. He didn't think that the Liu Clan would be so bold.
Hu Ding was the one who had the most contact with the little crane grass in the Hu Clan other than Hu Yuan and Hu Xian 'er. He was very clear about the talent of the little crane grass, and also knew the hard work of the little crane grass. He knew that maybe the little crane grass' soul wasn't very good and couldn't become a powerful combat plant master, but with his talent of communicating with plants and his hard work, he would definitely become a great plant master and a powerful pharmacist in the future. And no matter which of these two, it would bring a lot of help to the Hu Clan.
However, the Liu Clan attacked the little crane grass this time. Hu Ding didn't know if the Liu Clan did it intentionally or unintentionally. If it was unintentional, then it would be fine. But if it was intentional, then this matter wouldn't be as simple as it seemed.
Just as the Hu Clan was about to set out to look for the little crane grass and Hu Xin, two silhouettes suddenly appeared outside the city. The two's clothes were wrinkled and dirty. Their expressions looked very distressed, but they were still very spirited. However, there was a trace of vigilance and curiosity in their eyes.
While walking forward, Hu Xin said to the little crane grass, "In Ronghua City, there is a medicine hall of the Hu Clan. This medicine hall is also a branch of the Hu Clan. There are some experts inside, so we should be safe here. However, I don't know what the Liu Clan's strength is. Since they dared to attack the Grassy Ship, then they might attack our branch as well. Therefore, we must be careful."
Little Crane Grass nodded, then the two slowly entered the city. As soon as the two entered the city, Hu Ding received the news. As soon as he heard that the two had entered the city, Hu Ding immediately rushed out of the Hu Clan's Medicine Hall and went straight towards the two.
At this time, the little crane grass and Hu Xin were already protected by the Hu Clan. Upon seeing the green clothed members of the Hu Clan, Hu Xin's heart couldn't help but relax.
Before long, the green clothed people arrived at the two's side. A middle-aged man saw Hu Xin and excitedly said, "Xin 'er, it really is you. That's great."
When Hu Xin saw this person, he finally relaxed. Then he cupped his fist and said, "Seventh Uncle, I didn't expect you to come. It seems like the clan has already sent people. How are Hu Quan and the others?"
The one who spoke to Hu Xin was also a disciple of the Hu Clan. His name was Seventh Xing, and his name was Hu Wan. His nickname was the Wandering Dragon Staff. His soul was a birch tree, and he was best at using a set of staff techniques. He was also a well-known figure in Jianghu.
When Hu Wan heard Hu Xin, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "Hu Quan and the others have already died. Alright, let's not talk about this. Let's go. This time, it's Eighteenth Uncle who led the team. He should have already received the news."
Upon hearing that Hu Quan and the others had died, Hu Xin and the little crane grass' expression turned gloomy. This was especially true for the little crane grass. He didn't think that Hu Quan would die like this. This was the first time that someone he was familiar with was killed.
