One Step Is Enough
Chu Xingyun's voice resounded clearly in the huge square. The senior members of the family looked at Chu Xingyun with ridicule, as if they were looking at a clown.
The people who came after hearing the news also had a drastic change in their expressions. They became more and more impatient, and some of them even turned around and left, unwilling to stay any longer.
However, if one looked carefully, the eyes of the younger generation on the spectator stand became brighter and brighter. As their hearts beat, there was a strong resonance, as if they had comprehended something.
"What I did in the Liuyun Dynasty was to find my father. I entered the Wanjian Pavilion to find the answer. The reason why I participated in the Six Sects Tournament was to find my mother. Now, I have become the Pavilion Master of the Wanjian Pavilion and am in charge of the two major sects. When have I ever done anything tyrannical to the major families of the Ancient Star Sect?"
After the last sentence, Chu Xingyun had already walked to the front of the spectator stand.
He faced the three hundred thousand young people and said in a serious tone, "I'm sure all of you are aware of the chaos in the eighteen ancient cities. These people are from the Ancient Star Sect. Now, they have met each other on the battlefield, killing each other and causing chaos. The killing they have caused is even crazier and crueler than the endless beast tide."
"They also have the blood of the family flowing in their bodies, but when they fight, they don't have any feelings at all. They ignore the blood of the family and the friendship of the family. They only care about the laughable benefits and power."
Chu Xingyun laughed at himself. His pitch-black eyes gradually became gloomy. He looked through the crowd and directly fell on Duan Chun, Mo Wuwei and the others. The meaning in his eyes was self-evident.
But soon, he shifted his gaze away and looked at the younger generation again. He earnestly said, "We all have the blood of the clan flowing in our bodies. We are all members of the clan. But after thousands of years, the development of the clan has gone astray. We believe that everything belongs to the clan. Benefits are paramount. Only then can we maintain the relationship of the clan. Once there is a conflict of interest, we will turn against each other ruthlessly."
"In my opinion, what belongs to the family should belong to the members of the family. We need to use our bloodline and kinship to maintain the family, to maintain the Ancient Star Sect. Only in this way can we truly maintain our interests. We are bound together for good or ill, and we should not use all kinds of methods to obtain benefits by force."
"As the ancient saying goes, the Gou Li family's life and death is already decided. How can we avoid it because of benefits? If the family's development is measured by benefits, the chaos in the eighteen ancient cities will worsen by a thousand times. At that time, it will be the day of the family's destruction!"
His words were mixed with thick spiritual energy, and it seeped into the hearts of the younger generation. It deeply shocked their thoughts, and even struck their heartstrings. For a time, their eyes surged with fiery passion, and their hearts beat even more violently.
However, compared to the younger generation, the upper echelons of the family clans had already left. As for those who stayed behind, they were all looking at Chu Xingyun with mocking gazes and shaking their heads. It was as if they were mocking him.
Chu Xingyun met everyone's gaze. His raised foot suddenly stopped. He turned around and slowly walked back to the high platform. The entire space became heavy because of his slow footsteps.
Patter!
When he stopped, Chu Xingyun raised his head. The corner of his mouth had already curled into a sneer. He said again, "In the eighteen ancient cities, there are countless rumors about me. Some people say that I am a devil who fights for power and profit. Well, at this moment, you and I exchange our identities. When you become the Pavilion Master of the Wanjian Pavilion, will you destroy this great country, or will you use your identity as a member of the family to ignite the family's blood, unite your brothers and sisters, and make the family more prosperous and powerful?"
Hearing these words, the crowd was speechless. Many people lowered their heads, and their eyes flickered with a thoughtful light.
"Some people once said that I killed Gu Fanxing and wantonly expelled the members of the family to lead the Ancient Star Sect to destruction. However, at this moment, the Ancient Star Sect has not been destroyed. On the contrary, I have taken control of the eighteen ancient cities and the eighteen dynasties. The territory of the clan has become wider and the resources have become more abundant. Who said this?"
His words made the hearts of the crowd tremble. The void fell into a dead silence.
The three hundred thousand young people raised their heads and found that Chu Xingyun's eyes were full of mockery. He said with a sneer, "Looking at the root of the matter, all of this is because I have harmed the interests of some people. Even the chaos in the eighteen ancient cities was one of their vicious methods."
"Therefore, the first thing I did when I came to the Ancient Star Sect was to take back the power of the major families and take control of the eighteen ancient cities. My purpose was to destroy the ties of interest and let the Ancient Star Sect shine with a new vitality!"
The sharp words that came out of Chu Xingyun's mouth were like an invisible sword that deeply pierced into the hearts of the young people. They turned their heads and subconsciously looked at the senior members of the family behind them. Their expressions froze.
They knew that the ties of interest that Chu Xingyun was talking about were the senior members of the major families. At the same time, they also knew that the rumors about Chu Xingyun and the chaos in the eighteen ancient cities were all spread by these people.
"Brothers and sisters, the eighteen ancient cities will belong to you in the future. However, at that time, you will not know how rotten the eighteen ancient cities have become and how many dirty interests are hidden in them."
"Now, the power of the eighteen ancient cities is in my hands. I have also cut off all the ties of interest. This is because the blood of the family that flows in my body does not allow me to watch the eighteen ancient cities continue to decay. I do not want to disregard the morals of human relations!"
"I know very well how difficult this path is and how many obstacles we will encounter. However, as long as I still have this sword in my hand and there is still a breath in my chest, I will not give in."
"Even if I die, I will use my blood to dye a pure land!"
Resounding voices resounded in the minds of the younger generation. Every single one of them felt as if a spark had been ignited in their hearts, causing their breathing to involuntarily become much heavier.
Under their burning gazes, Chu Xingyun's figure flashed and stood on the spectator stand. He stretched out his right hand and said something that was extremely penetrating.
He said, "The ancient sects are shaken and the beast tide is wreaking havoc. The eighteen ancient cities are already decaying and no longer exist. This is a great opportunity to rebuild order. At the same time, it is also a great opportunity for you to show your skills."
