The terrain of Wutong Mountain was steep. The middle part of the mountain was straight, like a towering tree. At the top of the mountain, there were several boulders in the sky, shaped like a phoenix that was about to take off. It was named Wutong Mountain after the meaning of the phoenix resting on the Wutong tree.
In the past, this place was chosen as a base by a group of bandits second only to Taihang Mountain Stronghold. It was a treasure land that was easy to defend and difficult to attack. There was only one mountain road up and down the mountain.
At this time, a group of warriors in the Divine Transformation Realm came on the mountain road. The guests recruited by the Su family did not even dare to stop them. They directly pushed them all the way to the top of the mountain, under the archway of the Su family's Ningyuan Store.
At this time, Su Mingyuan also came out with his people. Seeing so many people coming aggressively, Su Mingyuan's expression changed slightly. However, he still cupped his hands and said, "Everyone, what do you mean by coming to my Su family?"
Dugu Yan came out and said, "Master Su, a straightforward person does not resort to insinuations. This time, your Su family has gone too far. We are all martial artists of the Northern Plains, but your Su family killed and destroyed as you please. You are even more overbearing than the Six Fan School and fiercer than the Devil Path. If we don't care, what will happen?
So this time, we just want to seek justice from your Su family, not for my Dugu family, but for the entire martial arts world of the Northern Plains. "
Su Mingyuan sighed. He knew this would be the result.
However, Su Mingyuan did not refute it. He just said, "This matter is indeed the Su family's fault. Those disciples of the Su family who attacked the martial arts world without permission have been severely punished by the Su family. From now on, they will never do such a thing again."
When everyone heard Su Mingyuan's words, they felt that something was wrong. Why did the Su family admit defeat so quickly? Was the Su family really strong in appearance but weak in reality?
They did not know the internal situation of the Su family, but they found it strange that the way the Su family handled things was a little too anticlimactic. When they attacked other forces in the martial arts world, they were overbearing and arrogant. But now, they gave in so easily. What did they mean?
Dugu Yan was also puzzled by the Su family's actions, but he knew that this matter must not be over.
Since the Su Family dared to make a move, they would have to pay the price.
Indeed, the Dugu Clan did not want to fight to the death with the Su Clan. At present, even with the addition of the current martial arts forces, the strength of the two sides was not much different. Fighting to the death with the Su Clan would not benefit the Dugu Clan.
However, not fighting to the death didn't mean that the Su Family could escape this calamity. At the very least, they had to pay some price.
Therefore, Dugu Yan directly sneered and said, "Su Family Head, isn't it a little too simple for you to say that you've already punished us?
During this period of time, your Su Clan has forcefully incorporated a total of twenty-one big and small forces in the martial arts world, and annihilated a total of nine big and small forces in the martial arts world. Countless lives have been lost in this. I wonder what punishment your Su Clan has that can compensate for these lives? "
Su Mingyuan took a deep breath and said, "Whether you believe it or not, my Su family really doesn't want to be isolated from the Northern Plains martial world.
If Patriarch Dugu still feels that this is not enough, then I will return all the resources that my Su Family has plundered in the past few days. I will also compensate a portion of the resources while I am at it. I will let you deal with it. "
As soon as this was said, some of the people present were a little tempted.
There were nine forces that were annihilated by the Su Family. The financial resources of other martial arts forces could be returned, but the nine forces had already been annihilated. Who else could they return to?
Su Mingyuan had already said that these resources and financial resources would be handed over to them. Wasn't it obvious that the rest of the things would be given to them?
In fact, they joined forces to find trouble with the Su Family just to protect themselves. After all, the Su Family had gone too far before.
If the Su Family still had that attitude, then they would not hesitate to join forces with Dugu Clan to attack the Su Family.
The thinking of these martial arts forces was actually very simple. If you don't let me live, then I will fight with you.
However, now Su Mingyuan unexpectedly took the initiative to admit defeat, which surprised them a little. At the same time, they also gave up the idea of fighting with the Su Family.
After all, the other party was one of the three hidden families, whose strength was comparable to the top martial arts forces. If they really fought with their lives, even with Dugu Clan, it would be a lose-lose outcome.
Although they did not want to continue to fight with the Su Family, Dugu Yan was not willing to give up.
His son died at the hands of Su Ziyu. Although Su Zhongyuan did not do it, he was actually one of the murderers.
This time, Su Zhongyuan was the one who started it, so the others could be fine, but Su Zhongyuan had to die!
Dugu Yan directly sneered and said, "Master Su, you are very generous. You just threw away so many cultivation resources.
This time, I can give up on the other people in the Su Family, but I can't give up on one person, and that is Su Zhongyuan!
He is the culprit of this matter. I can let the others go, but he must hand them over! "
"Impossible!"
Su Mingyuan flatly refused.
For the Su Family, every direct descendant was extremely precious. They could not afford to lose a warrior in the Divine Transformation Realm.
Moreover, even if Su Zhongyuan was guilty, the Su Family had to punish him themselves. It was absolutely impossible to hand him over to outsiders.
Su Mingyuan looked at Dugu Yan and said unyieldingly, "Master Dugu, when a member of the Su Family makes a mistake, we will punish him ourselves. It is not up to outsiders to intervene.
If you insist on forcing us like this today, then the Su Family will accompany you to the end!
Although the Su Family has been hidden for thousands of years, the blood of the Su Family has not been eroded in seclusion! "
Seeing Su Mingyuan's unyielding attitude, several elders of the Dugu Clan hurriedly sent a voice transmission to Dugu Yan, telling him to stop while he was ahead.
This time, they mainly came to limit the Su Family's expansion and to make a name for themselves.
Now that both of their goals had been achieved, and they could even get a batch of cultivation resources, being aggressive would have touched the bottom line of the Su Family. The Su Family would never agree to this kind of thing.
However, Dugu Yan was very unwilling.
In the past, he could not make a move against the Su Family for the sake of the overall situation. Now that he had an excuse, he could not make a move against the Su Family. As the Master of the Su Family, he was a bit too aggrieved.
However, at this moment, a cold voice rang out, "A life for a life, and a debt for money. The Su Family is so arrogant. After killing someone, you say that you will handle it yourself. Is the Su Family more powerful than the imperial court?"
Everyone looked back and saw Su Xin, who was dressed in a black and red official robe, walk in with a group of warriors from the Six Doors.
The cold light in Su Xin's eyes was so strong that it made people shudder. The entire mountaintop suddenly fell silent.
This time, Su Xin could have stayed out of this matter. However, there were too many forces present, and these guys were used to being slick. Under the circumstances of external pressure, they could decisively unite together.
However, once this external pressure disappeared, these people began to worry about their own gains and losses.
This included the Dugu family, which was a top force. Therefore, Su Xin had to come out and add fuel to the fire.
Seeing Su Xin come, Su Mingyuan's expression suddenly changed, and the other warriors showed strange expressions.
Su Xin was a member of the Su Family, but even a fool could tell from his words just now that he was clearly targeting the Su Family.
Zhao Yuantuo and the other local martial arts forces of the Northern Plains bowed to Su Xin and said, "Greetings, Lord Su!"
After the matter of the Xu Family spread, the martial arts forces of the Northern Plains did not dare to disrespect Su Xin at all.
Now, Su Xin definitely had the ability to destroy a first-class force. The only difference was whether Su Xin wanted to do it or not.
Looking at the crowd, Su Xin shook his head and said, "I say, people of the Northern Plains, they have already bullied you at your doorstep. Don't you have any reaction at all? An empty promise and handing over the cultivation resources that you have stolen is enough to send you away?
Tsk tsk, how disappointing. If you were the nine sects that were destroyed, how would you feel? "
The expressions of everyone present were very strange. Su Xin did not seem to have killed fewer people in the Northern Plains than the Su Family. How could he still have the face to say such things?
However, to be honest, when Su Xin made his move, he did give them a lot of pressure, but he did not make them join forces to resist like now.
The reason was very simple. It was because Su Xin had a good grasp of the situation. Not only did he put pressure on these martial arts forces, but he also showed them a way out. Although they were angry, they did not have the courage to fight to the death.
For example, the Su Family to directly kill without saying a word, and the degree of domineeringness was close to that of The Nine Hells, it would be strange for these martial arts forces not to be angry.
Su Mingyuan sighed and said, "Su Xin, no matter what, you are still considered a member of my Su Family. Are you really not going to leave a trace of face for my Su Family?"
Among the people of the Su Family, he was the one who had the most contact with Su Xin, so he understood Su Xin's character better.
This person was definitely not the kind of person who would silently suffer losses. Last time, when Su Mingli and the others made a move on him, Su Xin had completely broken off relations with the Su Family. From then on, Su Mingyuan knew that Su Xin would take revenge sooner or later. Today, Su Xin's appearance here proved that Su Mingyuan's guess was right.
However, what Su Mingyuan did not know was that this was not the first day Su Xin had appeared here.
Hearing Su Mingyuan's words, Su Xin laughed mockingly and said, "Face is fought for, not given by others. You know what your Su Family has done.
Master Su, you are a smart person, but unfortunately, there are not many in your Su Family who are smart.
Let's not talk about what happened last time. Today, I am here as one of the Four Great Super Arresters of Six Fan School. "
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Xin said coldly, "The Su Family acted recklessly and killed people of the martial arts world. They disregarded the laws of the country and the rules of the Jianghu. The Su Family must give the imperial court and the Jianghu an explanation for this!"
Su Xin looked at Su Mingyuan and said with a gloomy expression, "A life for a life, a debt for a money. Sooner or later, you will have to pay for what you have done. I won't touch the other people of your Su Family, but the people of the Su Family who killed people of the martial arts world of the Northern Plains, your Su Family must pay! "
