Chaos Erupts
Chu Xingyun didn't care about power, wealth, or resources. He racked his brains to do everything he could to save Shui Liu Xiang safely. That was all.
Moreover, this feeling was growing stronger and stronger. It seemed to fill his mind all the time.
Every time he cultivated, Chu Xingyun could vaguely feel that Shui Liu Xiang, who was far away in the Jiuhan Temple, was enduring endless pain and torment. Moreover, something strange was happening to her.
This strange feeling made Chu Xingyun feel incomparable fear. It was as if Shui Liu Xiang was gradually drifting away from him. The bond that tightly bound them together was also starting to blur.
Chu Xingyun realized that this might be the calamity that Shui Liu Xiang was suffering. He had to deal with the Daluo Golden Gate and the God Firmament Palace in the shortest time possible, and then set foot on the Jiuhan Temple in one fell swoop.
Apart from this, Chu Xingyun would sometimes feel the existence of an ice cave. It was very vague, but very real.
This ice cave existed in the eternal frost. It was pitch-black, bottomless, and had a mysterious aura. Even if a trace of spiritual power entered, one would be lost inside, forever unable to leave.
It was precisely in such a terrifying place that Chu Xingyun could hear a vague female voice. Moreover, in this uninhabited ice cave, a wisp of vitality seeped out, as if a new life was about to be born.
Every time Chu Xingyun wanted to explore deeper, this feeling would immediately disappear. Even the entire ice cave would disappear without a trace.
"As far as I know, in the entire True Spirit Continent, there are very few places with eternal frost. The largest one is the Endless Ice Domain where the Jiuhan Temple is located. Could it be that the ice cave is inside the Jiuhan Temple?"
"Strange. Why do I feel the existence of this mysterious ice cave? What does that blurry female voice and that faint trace of life have to do with me?"
Chu Xingyun was very puzzled. No one could answer his questions. Only by stepping on the Jiuhan Temple could he solve them. Therefore, the thoughts in his mind became more and more intense, filling the depths of his heart at all times.
"Master!"
Just as Chu Xingyun was deep in thought, a voice called out to him. The person who spoke was Lu Ling. He rushed in from outside the courtyard with an anxious expression on his face.
"What's the matter?" Chu Xingyun came back to his senses. In just a moment, he had returned to his original appearance.
"Master, on the main road of the Saint Star City, there are many high-level figures from various big families. They are either cursing or beating, causing the order of the Saint Star City to be chaotic. Some people even died on the spot." Lu Ling came in front of Chu Xingyun and explained everything concisely.
When Chu Xingyun heard Lu Ling's words, his eyes narrowed slightly. He knew that with the implementation of the reform, the upper echelons of the various large clans would definitely not be able to stand by and watch. They would try their best to stop it.
However, the actions of the other side were too ostentatious. Not only did they directly gather on the main road, but they also fought, causing several people to die on the spot. They did not put him in their eyes at all.
"The 18 ancient cities have just calmed down. We must not allow chaos to occur again. You can leave first. I will contact Wu Jing Xue and Senior Lin and prepare to let the Jingtian Army launch a strong charge to suppress the riot in one fell swoop." Chu Xingyun snorted coldly. He had already prepared and was just waiting for the order.
After that, he was about to look for Lin Tianchong and Wu Jing Xue, but he was hurriedly stopped by Lu Ling. He whispered, "Master, the situation is different this time."
"Huh?"
Chu Xingyun was slightly stunned. He did not understand the meaning of Lu Ling's words.
Lu Ling smiled bitterly and explained, "Those people did not interfere with the reform. They were divided into two groups. One group was dressed in bright clothes, while the other group was dressed in martial arts clothes. There were more than a hundred people in each group. Once they came into contact, they fought with each other, causing the space to become extremely chaotic."
"The people of the family were divided into two groups, cursing and killing each other?" Chu Xingyun was stunned. Now, he was even more stunned. The people of the family were actually rebelling and killing each other. This was really strange.
Lu Ling nodded like he was pounding garlic. He continued, "Moreover, the words of these two groups were very interesting. One group said that they wanted to support the four masters, while the other group said that the four masters were lunatics and beasts. When they were shouting, they kept saying other things, but the situation was too chaotic and I could not hear them clearly."
"I see!" After Chu Xingyun heard this, he suddenly laughed. This scene caused Lu Ling to be filled with curiosity. He couldn't help but ask, "Master, do you know the ins and outs of this matter?"
"I don't know, but I can guess." Chu Xingyun laughed. He was in an extremely good mood, "The two groups involved in the internal strife, one group was dressed in bright clothes and supported the four masters, while the other group was dressed in martial arts clothes and shouted that the four masters were lunatics and resisted with all their strength. Obviously, the source of these two groups came from the reform of the distribution of wealth and power."
"The former group supported the four masters, most of them were decadent people of the family who only wanted to live a comfortable life. The latter group resisted the four masters, most of them were outsiders of the family. They were cautious and conscientious, but they could not obtain power. In the face of the reform, of course, they would fight and even kill each other."
The structure of a family was very strict, especially for an ancient family that had existed for thousands of years. Ordinary people could not obtain the slightest bit of power and could only be reduced to the base of the family tower.
Chu Xingyun understood this very well. He also guessed that there would be internal strife between the families, but he never thought that it would come so quickly and so fiercely.
"Master, what should we do now?" Seeing Chu Xingyun laughing silently, Lu Ling could not help but ask, "Should we call Senior Lin and Senior Wu? With the power of the three thousand Jingtian Army, it will be extremely easy."
"That's not necessary." Chu Xingyun shrugged and sat down. He said complacently, "Since the two groups are fighting, then let them fight to the death. There is no need to mobilize the three thousand Jingtian Army. However, you have to pay attention to the changes in the situation at all times. If there is any abnormality, immediately inform the Ministry of Justice. Everything will be judged according to the law."
"These two groups of people are from the major families. Their words are the most credible. There is no lack of cunning in the four masters and the upper echelons of the major families. This is very important for the implementation of the reform!" Chu Xingyun added. He slowly opened his palm and motioned Lu Ling to deal with this matter, while he closed his eyes and entered the state of cultivation.
While Chu Xingyun was cultivating, the chaos in the Holy Star City became more and more intense. The two groups were completely opposite. Every word they said suddenly spread throughout the Holy Star City. Even the neighboring cities could hear it frequently.
When the public opinion was completely spread, Lu Xing finally came with the law enforcement team. They collected all the evidence, interrogated every family member, and suppressed the riot.
But even so, the public opinion about the four patriarchs became more and more intense. Soon, everyone saw the ugly faces of the four patriarchs. In addition to disgust, they were more supportive of the reform proposed by Chu Xingyun. They were sincerely convinced.
However, all this matter did not spread to the Wind Willow Residence, let alone the four masters and the upper echelons of the major families.
