Very quickly, Chu Dangxiong and the others picked out the more outstanding youths from the Chu Clan. There were a total of twenty or so people, and they had them disguise themselves.
These disciples were naturally unwilling to leave, but under the persuasion of Chu Dangxiong and the others, they gradually calmed down and agreed with Chu Dangxiong and the others.
As night fell, the twenty or so outstanding disciples all disguised themselves. Taking advantage of the late night, they reluctantly sneaked out of the Chu Clan's backyard. They all had banknotes and other things on them.
According to Chu Dangxiong and the others' opinion, these twenty or so people should not stay together. It was safer to spread out.
"Hu …"
The twenty or so outstanding disciples left in the night. Chu Dangxiong and the others finally let out a sigh of relief.
Other than Chu Mu and the other three, there were still twenty or so outstanding disciples that left. This could be considered as preserving the Chu Clan's last foundation. In the future, when the Chu Clan was rebuilt, they would be strong enough to come back and take revenge.
"Good, let everyone prepare for tomorrow's battle." Chu Dangxiong shouted. The Chu Clan's ferocious tiger's might was displayed. "Even if the Chu Clan's last drop of blood, we will not let the Wang Clan have an easy time."
"Yes." The Chu Clan disciples were all excited. They clenched their fists and left one by one. They were conserving their energy for tomorrow's battle.
"Tomorrow, we should be able to reach the clan. I wonder if Father and Mother are doing well." In a mountain in the Li Province, Chu Mu sat cross-legged on a huge rock. He looked at the bright moon in the sky and thought to himself.
The red-crowned crane was perched on the side, resting with its head lowered.
Suddenly, the bright white moon seemed to be suffused with traces of blood color. It looked a bit demonic.
Chu Mu frowned slightly. This kind of moonlight did not seem very good. It seemed to be some kind of omen.
…
The night passed quickly without any words. The sky gradually brightened.
After the people of Kaiyang woke up, they began a new day of work. Some opened their shops, while others went out of the city to farm. However, when they passed by the Chu Clan's estate, their bodies suddenly trembled and their hair stood on end.
That was because from within the Chu family estate, waves of sharp aura spread out. It was like a sharp sword piercing through the sky, causing people to tremble in fear.
Some of the more weak-willed commoners immediately fell to the ground as their legs went soft. Their bodies trembled uncontrollably, and it was difficult for them to even move. They had to crawl out of the Chu clan residence.
In the front yard of the Chu Clan, Chu Clan's Fierce Tiger, Chu Clan, Chu Clan's Fierce Tiger, Chu Clan's Clan Leader, Chu Xingkong, and the others were sitting beside him. The Chu Clan's disciples were standing beside him with their swords on their backs. Their auras were as one, and their sharpness was revealed. It was as if they were waiting for something.
The bloody battle was about to arrive, and the atmosphere was extremely oppressive.
Time slowly passed. The strange phenomenon in the Chu clan had caused many speculations. Naturally, the news had also reached the ears of the Lin and Wang clans.
"From the looks of it, the Chu Clan does not intend to submit." The head of the Lin Clan, Lin Feihu, frowned. He could not help but feel a sense of sadness.
In order to protect the Lin Clan, he had no choice but to submit to the Wang Clan. Otherwise, with the Wang Clan's current strength, it would not be difficult for them to destroy the Lin Clan.
Wang Long alone was able to defeat the old head of the Lin Clan, making the entire Lin Clan invincible. Even if they surrounded the Lin Clan, it would only increase the number of casualties.
"The Chu Clan is doing very well." Within the Wang Clan, a tall young man of twenty-three or twenty-four years old revealed a cold smile after hearing the news. His eyes flashed with a hint of ferocity.
"Lin Feihu, take your people and follow me to the Chu Clan." The young man's ferocious eyes swept over Lin Feihu as he ordered.
"Yes." Lin Feihu cupped his hands. His face was expressionless, but his heart was filled with sorrow.
The dignified Lin Clan, one of the three great clans of Kaiyang City, was an existence on par with the Wang Clan. But now, it had become a subsidiary of the Wang Clan, and was even going to be cannon fodder for the Wang Clan.
This young man was Wang Long. His words were very clear. He planned to have the Lin Clan and the Chu Clan fight. When the time comes, the Wang Clan will clean up the mess. This way, the Lin Clan's strength will be greatly reduced, the Chu Clan will also decline, and the Wang Clan will dominate the entire Kaiyang City.
But Lin Feihu couldn't refuse, because if he refused, the Wang Clan would immediately make a move against the Lin Clan.
The old patriarch of the Lin Clan was still injured, and the entire Lin Clan was no match for Wang Long.
After all, the current Lin Clan couldn't be compared to the Chu Clan at all. They only had one master of the Qi Transformation Realm, while the Chu Clan now had three.
This time, the Lin Clan would suffer heavy losses in the battle with the Chu Clan.
Lin Feihu didn't dare to refuse Wang Long's order. Although he was sad and angry, he still did as he was told. But he played a little trick, and only brought out the more ordinary disciples of the Lin Clan. None of the outstanding disciples showed up.
Wang Long was no fool. He glanced at them and snorted coldly, but didn't say anything. To him, the Lin Clan was nothing but cannon fodder, and it didn't matter if he needed them to do anything when the time came. It was just a matter of calling them out to make a scene.
The group of people left the Wang Clan and went to the Chu Clan.
The Chu Clan's gate was blasted open by a sword. It shattered into five or six pieces and flew to the front yard of the Chu Clan.
The faces of the disciples of the Chu Clan changed. They all held the hilts of their swords, ready to pull them out at any time.
"What a big lineup. Is it to welcome our arrival?" A somewhat playful voice sounded. Then, several figures appeared after the dust settled.
These people walked through the gate and into the front yard of the Chu Clan, allowing the people of the Chu Clan to see their faces clearly.
The leader was the young master of the Wang Clan, Wang Long!
Wang Long's tall figure looked imposing. He wore a loose black robe with bronze edges. There was a sword on his back, revealing the black hilt. Overall, he gave off an extraordinary feeling.
Behind Wang Long, there were two elders of the Wang Clan. These two elders were both in the Qi Transformation Realm. In addition, there was Lin Feihu, the patriarch of the Lin Clan. Behind Lin Feihu were dozens of disciples of the Lin Clan.
Chu Dangxiong slowly stood up with his hands behind his back. His face was serious, and his aura was condensed. He stared at Wang Long.
Chu Xingkong and the rest of the disciples of the Chu Clan all looked over with vigilance.
"Patriarch Lin, I didn't expect you to make such a choice." Chu Dangxiong's gaze fell on Lin Feihu's face and said slowly.
Lin Feihu's expression changed, but he didn't answer.
"Patriarch Lin's choice is the clearest. I hope that your Chu Clan can also make the clearest choice." Wang Long smiled and said unhurriedly, as if the whole situation was already in his hands and he was in control of the whole situation.
"Our Chu Clan has indeed made the clearest choice." Chu Dangxiong sneered, "The Chu Clan will definitely not submit to your Wang Clan."
"Oh." Wang Long's eyes were cold, "So it seems that your Chu Clan is planning to disappear?"
"We will fight to the last drop of our Chu Clan's blood!" Chu Dangxiong shouted.
"We will fight to the last drop of our Chu Clan's blood!" The disciples of the Chu Clan all drew their swords and shouted. The clanging sound of swords being unsheathed resounded in the surroundings. The sharp aura was even more intense, shooting straight into the sky.
Everyone within a few thousand meters of the Chu Clan could feel the intense sharpness. The sharpness was even more frightening than a person.
Everyone knew that there was a huge change in Kaiyang City.
"What a shocking aura." Wang Long's eyes flashed with a hint of fear. The two elders of the Wang Clan, Lin Feihu, and the rest of the Lin Clan were also incomparably fearful. They even took a small step back. The aura of the Chu Clan was too strong.
Although in Wang Long's eyes, even the old patriarch, Chu Dangxiong, who was known as the Fierce Tiger of the Chu Clan, was not his opponent, the determination of the Chu Clan at this moment caused the sharpness to be incomparably strong. It made him, who was at the initial stage of Qi Transformation, feel apprehensive.
However, Wang Long was only a little afraid, that was all.
"We will fight to the last drop of our Chu Clan's blood?" Wang Long's lips curled into a cold smile, "Are you thinking that since you have already sent the outstanding disciples of the Chu Clan out of Kaiyang City, the remaining people are prepared to fight to the death with our Wang Clan?"
The expressions of the Chu Clan members suddenly changed. They could not help but have an ominous feeling.
"That's right. Last night, the twenty or so people who left your Chu Clan's backyard did not leave. Right now, they are all guests of the Wang Clan." Wang Long said neither slowly nor quickly. The expression on his face was chilling.
The sharpness of Chu Dangxiong and the others paused, then dissipated.
They sent the twenty or so outstanding disciples of the Chu Clan out of the Chu Clan in order to preserve the bloodline of the Chu Clan. In the future, they could not place this heavy burden on Chu Mu and the other three.
It was because of this hope that they could put aside all their worries and fight to the death with the Wang Clan. They would fight to the death, even if they had to use up their last drop of blood, to make the Wang Clan suffer even greater losses.
But now, the twenty or so outstanding disciples of the Chu Clan that Wang Long told them to leave last night did not really leave. Instead, they were captured and locked up in the Wang Clan.
This was tantamount to shattering their hope, causing their morale to plummet.
Seeing the expressions of the Chu Clan members, Wang Long smiled coldly. He had achieved his goal.
The current Chu Clan did not have that sharpness, so they were not that powerful. They could destroy the Chu Clan at an even lower price and dominate Kaiyang City. Then, with Kaiyang City as their foundation, they could spread their influence in all directions, causing the Wang Clan to continuously grow stronger.
This was Wang Long's ambition, and also the Wang Clan's ambition.
"I will give your Chu Clan one last chance. Submit to the Wang Clan. Otherwise, you will be killed without mercy!" Wang Long shouted.
"Don't even think about it!" Chu Dangxiong clenched his teeth and swept his gaze over the Chu Clan members. He could not help but feel some sorrow in his heart. "Brothers of the Chu Clan, bring out your courage and fight a bloody battle with the Wang Clan. Even if we use up our last drop of blood, we will not surrender and weaken the prestige of the Chu Clan."
"Bloody battle!"
"Bloody battle!"
"Bloody battle!"
It was as if they had fallen into despair after their hope had been shattered. But in that despair, they gained strength and fought with their lives on the line. The aura of the Chu Clan members once again became sharp, and even stronger than before. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
