"Damn it!" Zeng Family's Ancestor was furious. He did not expect the Qiu Family's Ancestor to make such a decision. He did not even care about the Qiu Family's reputation and became a slave.
In this way, Yang Hongwu wouldn't make a move on the Qiu Family. After all, the Qiu Family had become his slaves. How could he make a move on his own slaves?
His plan to destroy the Qiu Family and take over the Qiu Family was obviously impossible. Moreover, if Yang Hongwu attacked the Zeng Family, it would cause a lot of trouble. In turn, the Zeng Family would be destroyed.
No, he could not let that happen.
The Zeng Family's Ancestor made his decision.
"I did not expect you to give up the Qiu Family and become my slave. Since that is the case, I will not make things difficult for the Qiu Family. Everyone from the Zeng Family, listen up. Stop, we will retreat." The Zeng Family's Ancestor waved his hand.
"Master, we cannot let the Zeng Family go now. Now that the Hua Family's Ancestor has been killed by Master, as long as we kill the Zeng Family, the entire Yan Yun County will be Master's." The Zeng Family wanted to retreat, but how could the Qiu Family's Ancestor let them go so easily?
If it wasn't for that bastard Ceng Chi, the Qiu Family wouldn't have fallen to such a state. Therefore, it was a fact that the Qiu Family had become Yang Hongwu's subordinate. Moreover, it was the Ceng Family that had caused all of this. Now that the Ceng Family wanted to withdraw, how could they not pay the price?
Now that the Qiu Family was Yang Hongwu's subordinate, why would he not help Yang Hongwu to take over the Zeng Family?
If they did not agree, the Zeng Family would be destroyed.
Anyway, the Qiu Family had the upper hand. Whether or not the Zeng Family submitted to Yang Hongwu, the Qiu Family was still stronger than the Zeng Family.
If the Zeng Family submitted, the Qiu Family would be the first to do so. Their status would be higher than the Zeng Family. If the Zeng Family did not agree, would Yang Hongwu let them go?
The Old Ancestor of the Qiu Clan was not stupid. Since Yang Hongwu had come here, he must have his own plans. There was another problem. How could a monster like Yang Hongwu be bound by a mere Yanyun County? How could this tiny pond contain a true dragon?
In the future, Yang Hongwu would definitely leave Swallow Cloud County. He should go to a bigger stage.
Even the Sect of the Ether would not tolerate him.
Therefore, there was no harm in pledging allegiance to Yang Hongwu. On the contrary, they might even receive great benefits.
He was taking a gamble. If he didn't take the gamble, he would die for sure. Now, the Qiu Clan would be completely wiped out. If he succeeded, the Qiu Clan would soar into the sky and become the most powerful force in Yan Yun County. He might even surpass the Saint Realm.
"You …" Ceng Chi was furious. If Yang Hongwu really did that, the Zeng Family would be in danger.
He was originally an ally of Yang Hongwu. But now, the situation had changed drastically. The Qiu Clan had suddenly become Yang Hongwu's servant and the Zeng Family had become his enemy. This sudden change caught Ceng Chi off guard. But if he did not make a choice and persuade Yang Hongwu, the Zeng Family would be destroyed.
"Young Hero, the Zeng Family is no different from opposing you. What's more, the Zeng Family has always respected you," Zeng Chi said.
"Bah!" As soon as Ceng Chi finished, the Old Ancestor of the Qiu Clan spat and shouted, "Young Master, don't listen to this bastard. He has no good intentions. In fact, he wanted to scheme against you from the beginning. He only acted because he saw how strong you were. He wanted to gain your trust and wait until he completely controls Swallow Cloud County. "
"Old man, you're slandering me. Young Hero, I'm not that kind of person." The Old Ancestor of the Zeng Family said.
Looking at the two, Zi Fenghuang was dumbfounded. What was going on? Before they even made a move, the Qiu Clan had already sworn a blood oath to pledge allegiance to Yang Hongwu and even fought with the Zeng Family.
Could it be that Yang Hongwu had the legendary aura of a king?
"Shut up." Yang Hongwu said coldly.
"Yes, Young Master." The Old Ancestor of the Qiu Clan quickly stopped talking.
"Young Hero." The Old Ancestor of the Zeng Family also stopped talking and looked at Yang Hongwu.
"Since the Qiu Clan has sworn a blood oath to pledge allegiance to me, then the Qiu Clan is my force." Yang Hongwu said calmly and looked around. "I don't care what the Qiu Clan is planning to do, but now that you've pledged allegiance to me, you're my people. If you have any other thoughts or want to betray me, then I'll let you know what true fear is and what it means to live a life worse than death."
Hearing Yang Hongwu's words, everyone in the Qiu Clan felt a terrifying chill. When Yang Hongwu's eyes swept over, they felt that their breaths were frozen and their hearts were about to stop.
Terrifying, too terrifying. Just his gaze alone was so terrifying.
Some of the Qiu Clan members were very unhappy with the Old Ancestor's choice. Some even wanted to leave the Qiu Clan.
But when Yang Hongwu's gaze swept over them, they lost their rebellious thoughts.
"Young Master, don't worry. Since the Qiu Clan has pledged allegiance to you, we won't be disloyal. Everything in the Qiu Clan belongs to you." The Old Ancestor of the Qiu Clan said.
"Mm." Yang Hongwu nodded. "As for the Zeng Clan, I have a deal with Zeng Cheng, so I won't make things difficult for the Zeng Clan. But if the Zeng Clan deceives me, then there's no need for the Zeng Clan to exist."
"No, no." Zeng Cheng broke out in cold sweat. He felt that his heart was about to jump out of his chest. He was afraid that Yang Hongwu would attack the Zeng Clan.
The Old Ancestor of the Zeng Clan heaved a sigh of relief.
It was fine as long as he didn't attack. If he did, he wasn't confident at all.
"Alright, you guys can leave. The Qiu Clan members, follow me." Yang Hongwu waved his hand. "Since I've killed the Old Ancestor of the Hua Clan, then I'll take the Hua Clan as well."
"Yes, Young Master." The Old Ancestor of the Qiu Clan nodded.
The Old Ancestor of the Zeng Clan stopped in his tracks and sighed. The Zeng Clan's efforts were in vain. He didn't expect things to turn out this way.
If he knew this would happen, he wouldn't have interfered. That way, the Qiu Clan and the Hua Clan would have suffered great losses against Yang Hongwu. That way, the Zeng Clan would have benefited greatly. Now, they didn't get any benefits, but suffered great losses. They were even in danger of being exterminated.
Who was Zeng Chi? He had cultivated for countless years and was the Old Ancestor of the Zeng Clan. He was extremely cunning. How could he not see that the Zeng Clan's crisis was averted? But how could the Qiu Clan let the Zeng Clan off? The Old Ancestor of the Qiu Clan hated the Zeng Clan to the core. One day, he would attack the Zeng Clan.
