Su Xin disguised himself as Meng Qingze and wanted to help the Shen family. However, only Su Xin himself knew what would happen after he helped the Shen family.
After all, he had promised Xie Zhiyan that he would definitely get rid of the small family completely within a month.
At that moment, the Shen family in Moling Prefecture was gloomy. The reason was that they had a conflict with the Zhou family in the morning and had sent three Divinity Level martial artists. However, they suffered a great loss as one of them was killed and the other two were seriously injured. Among the two major families in Moling Prefecture, the Shen family was originally weaker than the Zhou family. However, after this incident, they were much weaker.
The Zhou family had 11 Divinity Level martial artists while the Shen family only had nine.
Among the nine people, there was the old master of the Shen family.
Although the old master of the Shen family was also a Divinity Level martial artist, he was already over 120 years old. His ability and the Qi and blood of his body had declined to the extreme, so it was impossible for him to fight anyone.
In this way, the Shen family only had eight people in their battle force.
After so many days, two of the seven Divinity Level martial artists of the second generation of the Shen family were seriously injured. Today, another two were injured and one was dead. Now, the Shen family only had two Divinity Level martial artists who were still in good condition, and one of them was a butler who had been with the Shen family for decades.
At that moment, in the meeting hall, a doctor said carefully after treating the two seriously injured martial artists of the Shen family, "Old Master Shen, the meridians of the two Mr. Shens have been severely injured. I'm afraid they won't be able to recover without a few months. Mr. Shen Er's injury is the most serious. One of his arms is completely crippled."
The people in the hall could not help but look gloomy. If an arm was crippled, did that not mean that the person would be crippled even if he were to recover?
The eldest son of the Shen family, who was also Shen Xijun's father, had died of anger because of what happened back then. The second son of the Shen family, Shen Congxiao, was the most powerful person in the Shen family and was also the candidate for the future master of the Shen family. Now, Shen Congxiao had become a cripple.
Sensing the murderous gazes in the hall, the doctor immediately revealed a bitter smile.
He was just an ordinary doctor, not a legendary doctor who could save the dead. It was useless for all of you to look at him like this.
In the end, Grandpa Shen waved his hand and asked the doctor to leave. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief and quickly left the Shen family.
At this moment, in the Shen family's meeting hall, the fifth brother of the Shen family, Shen Congren, suddenly said in a low voice, "If we had known earlier, we would have accepted the mediation of the Sword Fighting Sect back then. If we had accepted the mediation at that time and had the Zhou family compensate us with a sum of cultivation resources, it would have been better than losing our strength now."
When Xie Zhiyan first came to mediate, there were indeed people in the Shen family who were moved.
After all, it was the most unwise thing for two evenly matched families to start a war. Either both sides would suffer, or one family would be destroyed by the other.
However, even if they won, it would be a pyrrhic victory, so many people in the Shen family actually didn't want to fight this battle.
But at that time, the Zhou Clan had killed their own direct descendant. Whether it was for face or for other reasons, the Shen Clan had to fight.
In the end, they regretted it. The strength of the Zhou Clan was beyond their imagination. In this fight, their Shen Clan had lost more than half of their strength.
However, it was too late to regret it now. Back then, the Zhou Clan did not agree to mediate, and now that their Zhou Clan had the advantage, they were even more unwilling to accept the mediation of the Sword Fighting Sect.
But at this time, the third son of the Shen family, Shen Congwu, suddenly said: "Fifth brother, what do you mean by this? Are you afraid? If the Zhou family wants to completely exterminate our Shen family, then let them come!
These few days, our Shen family has suffered heavy losses, could it be that their Zhou family is completely unharmed? Even if the Zhou family wants to annihilate our Shen family, we will make them lose a mouthful of teeth! "
The reason why the Shen Family started a war with the Zhou Family was because the Zhou Family had suddenly killed a direct disciple of the Shen Family. That direct disciple was the son of the Third Brother, Shen Cong Wu. Of course, he hated the Zhou Family to the bone.
Hearing Shen Congwu's words, Shen Congren was immediately unhappy: "Third brother, what do you mean by this? You make it sound like I'm afraid of death.
I want to make peace because I want to preserve a trace of the Shen family's lineage. Otherwise, how are we going to explain it to our ancestors? "
The two of them started to quarrel, and the others did not dare to get involved. The remaining Divine Palace stage warrior, Chen Cang, was a follower of Old Master Shen for his entire life. Later on, he became the butler of the Shen family and could be said to be loyal to the Shen family.
However, both of them were members of the Shen family, so it was not appropriate for him to persuade them. He could only open his mouth and watch.
In the end, Old Master Shen saw that they were getting more and more outrageous, so he fiercely tapped his walking stick a few times and berated: "All of you, shut up! What's with all this noise? "
The moment Old Master Shen spoke, everyone present immediately did not dare to say anything else.
No one could challenge the authority of Old Master Shen in the Shen family. Even if his Qi and blood were declining and his body was weak, it was still the same.
The history of the Shen family was very short. Old Master Shen was the founder of the first generation, and he single-handedly nurtured these few sons of the Divine Palace stage.
He could even proudly say that none of his sons were useless. Therefore, his prestige in the Shen family was unparalleled.
In the silence, the daughter of the eighth son of the Shen family, a woman in her twenties, suddenly said in a low voice: "If only Big Sister had married Zong Haoyang back then. Our Shen family has an Essence Soul stage warrior, so we definitely don't have to be afraid of the Zhou family."
As soon as she said that, everyone present had different expressions. However, Old Master Shen and the rest of them looked terrible.
That was the stupidest thing that the Shen family had done in all these years.
Back then, because Zong Haoyang was a rogue cultivator with mediocre abilities, they wanted to marry Shen Xijun to a second-rate family with an Essence Soul stage warrior, the Situ family.
However, they did not expect that the rogue cultivator that they looked down on back then would break through to the Essence Soul stage. He even made a name for himself in the Central Plains as the Four Ultimate Itinerant. Because of that, the Shen family was often mocked by other families for being short-sighted.
One had to know that if they had been able to marry Shen Xijun and Zong Haoyang back then, they would have gained a martial arts master in the Integration Realm.
The Essence Soul stage warrior of the Situ family was only in the Divine Transformation Realm, which was incomparable to Zong Haoyang, who was in the Integration Realm.
Moreover, that was only a marriage alliance. If the Shen family could marry Shen Xijun to Zong Haoyang, then Zong Haoyang would be one of their own. It was much more stable than a marriage alliance between families.
In fact, when Zong Haoyang had just broken through to the Divine Transformation Realm, the Shen family had already regretted it and wanted to redeem everything.
However, because of what happened back then, Shen Xijun's parents died of anger. Shen Xijun also completely gave up and escaped to become a monk. It was no longer possible for the two of them to be together again. Shen Xijun even wanted to die. The Shen family could only give up and let Shen Xijun accompany the ancient Buddha lamp in the backyard of the Shen family all year round.
A group of third-generation disciples of the Shen family looked at Old Master Shen and the others with strange eyes.
After all, the original decision was made by them. At that time, the third generation of the Shen family was only Shen Xijun, who was already an adult. The others were still young.
Feeling the gazes of the other juniors, Shen Congwu's face turned red and he scolded, "What are you looking at? The Shen family is now in the most dangerous time. It's fine if you juniors don't think about how to save the Shen family, but what are you thinking? "
The daughter of the Eighth Brother of the Shen family muttered, "I'm not thinking. Even if Zong Haoyang can't become my brother-in-law, he still has a trace of kinship with our Shen family, right?
If Zong Haoyang knew the current situation of our Shen family, do you think he would help us because of kinship? "
As soon as the daughter of the Eighth Brother said this, everyone present was suddenly stunned. They really didn't think of this.
It was impossible for Zong Haoyang to join the Shen family, but Shen Xijun used to be his true love.
If the Shen family was destroyed, Shen Xijun would naturally be in danger. For this reason alone, Zong Haoyang had to help the Shen family get through this crisis. He might even help them destroy the Zhou family while he was at it.
However, it did not take long for everyone to remember that even if they knew about this, it would be useless. Where would they find Zong Haoyang?
Zong Haoyang had not appeared in the martial arts world of the Central Plains for more than 20 years. It was said that he went overseas to break through to the Yang God stage. Where would the Shen family find him?
Everyone sighed helplessly. But at this moment, a servant hurriedly pushed open the door and shouted, "Master, the Zhou family has come to attack us!"
The faces of everyone in the Shen family immediately turned gloomy. The Zhou family had gone too far. They actually dared to fight at their door. Did they really think that they could destroy the Shen family now?
Everyone in the Shen family hurried out of the door and saw three Divinity Level martial artists from the Zhou family standing at the door with their men. They looked arrogant while the rest of the martial artists from Moling Prefecture were watching by the side.
Seeing that Old Master Shen and the rest had come out, the Divinity Level martial artist who was leading the Zhou family stood out and sneered, "A bunch of cowards are finally willing to come out? Didn't the Shen family say that they wanted to fight to the death with the Zhou family in the beginning? Now that the Zhou family has brought people here, don't pretend to be a coward. "
The old housekeeper of the Shen family, Chen Cang, was furious. He immediately rushed out and shouted, "People from the Zhou family, you are too arrogant. Even if the Zhou family is more powerful than the Shen family, the Zhou family will not be able to get away with it if you want to destroy the Shen family!"
Everyone around was confused. The Zhou family's domineering attitude was what they were confused about.
It seemed that the Zhou family's ability was indeed more powerful than the Shen family. However, although they were powerful, they were far from being able to destroy the Shen family.
Moreover, even if the Zhou family could destroy the Shen family in the end, it would be a lose-lose situation. The Zhou family would lose more than they gained.
However, the Zhou family seemed to have a deep hatred for the Shen family and was determined to destroy the Shen family.
