Chapter 318 The Zhao family is gone, you understand what I said!
The world is in turmoil.
Big things happen one after another.
But after a period of time, the Blood Demon incident finally returned to normal.
No, it can't be called peaceful.
It is the Blood Demon who keeps committing crimes, and people all over the world have accepted it.
Just waiting for the day when the blood demon becomes a good guy, that would be big news.
In the eastern capital Luojing, the scene was desolate, the streets were empty and there were few pedestrians.
Dou Changsheng felt a little embarrassed as he watched the shops closing one after another, because the hotel where he lived had completely stopped operating today. It was easy to find a place to stay, but it was a little difficult to find a place to eat.
After all, this is not just a problem for the cook, it also involves the issue of selling vegetables.
This is a series of questions.
If they find it difficult themselves, then it would be even more difficult for ordinary people in the eastern capital Luojing. In order to survive, they will eventually have to leave Luojing.
Even if they have food in stock, they can eat for a while, but firewood? Salt
With the large number of people leaving, various problems have arisen in the originally complete supporting facilities. Only the government can maintain the situation in the Eastern Capital Luojing, but the government has not shown up yet.
It seems that this is also a way to force them to leave Luojing. With two approaches at the same time, they have no choice but to submit.
Dou Changsheng casually picked up an invitation, which was sent by the Zhao family.
There are many other invitations, all from major forces in Luojing.
Originally he was planning to wait a while, but now Dou Changsheng was going to the Zhao family for a banquet, and he had no intention of leaving, so he would eat and drink for free at the Zhao family.
When Wu Junyi suddenly heard Dou Changsheng's instructions, he was stunned at first, and couldn't help but look down at the many posts, feeling absurd in his heart.
The laughing monk actually took the initiative to attack.
If I remember correctly, the invitation at the top was from the Kamikaze Sect.
Just now, Dou Changsheng picked up the invitation casually, without drawing from it, but picked up the one on the top.
But this happened to the Zhao family.
Wu Junyi didn't look at it for long, but naturally moved his eyes away. He responded, then walked out slowly and arranged to go to Zhao's house.
After walking out of the room, Wu Junyi was already on guard. This laughing monk was interfering with Dou Changsheng, and the impact this had was huge.
What should Buddhism do?
Wu Junyi couldn't judge, but this message must be passed on to Xiao Wangzhi.
There was nothing that could be done about it. He and King Xiao were too closely bound together. They would prosper together and suffer together.
As for the big ship of King Xiao, there is no sign of capsizing so far. Wu Junyi has no intention of jumping off the ship, and he doesn't even have any second thoughts. He doesn't plan to take the initiative to step forward.
After all, his strength was still a little weak. He was only in the late Yuanshen realm. Now he was in the Tianren realm and could die at any time. How could Wu Junyi dare to act rashly?
Not long after, Wu Junyi returned and said to Dou Changsheng, "I have already communicated with the Zhao family. They will prepare a banquet today and wait for His Highness to come in the evening."
Dou Changsheng nodded and said, "Okay."
"Can you tell me about the Zhao family?"
Wu Junyi introduced and said, "The Zhao family now has three powerful people in the Heaven Realm."
"The ancestor was born in the previous dynasty. In the last years of the previous dynasty, he helped Emperor Taizu capture the Eastern Capital Luojing, thus making great contributions. The Zhao family prospered in the Eastern Capital Luojing."
"At that time, the forces hostile to the imperial court were being liquidated, and the Zhao family received support from the imperial court, thus taking advantage of the situation to rise."
"Later, the head of the Zhao family achieved the Heavenly Man Realm two hundred years ago, and the Zhao family officially became one of the top ten families."
"The third person in the Heavenly Man Realm is not from the Zhao family's direct lineage, but a casual cultivator."
"Zhao Man is a man of extraordinary talent, famous in the Eastern Capital, and valued by the Zhao family. He married his eldest daughter to Zhao Man, and from then on he began to show his talents, making rapid progress all the way and achieving the Heavenly Man Realm."
"These are the three most important people in the Zhao family. The rest is Zhao Hongying."
"This was originally the third generation of the Zhao family, the future banner figure, the next generation of the Zhao family patriarch."
"But unfortunately, this person has clashed with Zhao Man many times. As a direct descendant of the Zhao family, he has the help of many clansmen and is able to suppress Zhao Man. Unfortunately, Zhao Man's strength broke through first, which had a huge impact on Zhao Hongying. Whenever the two sides clashed, Zhao Man always won."
"Zhao Hongying's insufficiency of character and his inability to tolerate others have been exposed, and his hope of breaking through to the Heavenly Man Realm has begun to fade."
"Zhao Hongying was cultivated by the Zhao family with all their strength. He was to be the future leader. Now he has disappointed the family, and his supporters have begun to decrease. The Zhao family is also unable to train a replacement in a short period of time."
"After all, the Zhao family has only been prosperous for about three hundred years, so its foundation is too shallow."
The Laughing Monk sighed and said, "It's not that easy to break through to the Heavenly Man Realm."
“I don’t know how many people are praised as having the appearance of a celestial being, but only one in a hundred can truly achieve the celestial being realm.”
"Zhao Hongying was unable to break through. First, he was harmed by Zhao Man. Second, his chances of breaking through were slim in the first place. These factors combined have led to his current embarrassing situation."
Zhao Man.
Dou Changsheng muttered to himself.
No one can judge a person's future until the last moment.
The reason why Zhao Hongying was able to gain support from the Zhao family was naturally because he had shown his extraordinary talents since childhood. After he embarked on his practice, he made rapid progress all the way. He had few rivals among his generation and was truly a genius among geniuses.
The Zhao family couldn't judge, and Zhao Man naturally couldn't either.
Therefore, this trap showed Zhao Man's ability.
The fact that this person has been unable to fight against Zhao Hongying is not true, but the other party is deliberately showing weakness.
Let Zhao Hongying develop a mentality of looking down on Zhao Man, and then be the first to complete the breakthrough, and then continuously defeat Zhao Hongying, completely causing Zhao Hongying's mentality to collapse, thus causing mental problems.
Moreover, this method is impeccable to outsiders and is a self-protection strategy.
No one knows what will happen in the future, so Zhao Man has no confidence in making a breakthrough before Zhao Hongying. After all, the resources obtained by Zhao Hongying are several times that of Zhao Man.
Therefore, if you cannot break through, or break through late, there will be no problem if you show weakness.
After breaking through to the Heavenly Man Realm, Zhao Man's position was no longer so embarrassing. It was impossible for the Zhao family to support such a huge family business by relying on its own family members in just three hundred years. There must be many guests and worshippers, all of whom were outsiders and would naturally be close to Zhao Man.
As a person in the Heavenly Man Realm, Zhao Man is qualified to say no.
He immediately became the head of the Zhao family, and when Zhao Hongying provoked him, Zhao Man fought back without having to consider the Zhao family's face.
A person who has reached the state of a celestial being does not have to stay in the Zhao family. The world is so big that he can go anywhere.
If Zhao Man leaves, she can definitely tear the Zhao family apart and take some people away. The Zhao family will definitely not be able to bear such serious losses.
This person is already showing signs of taking over the old position.
It is not easy to recruit a live-in son-in-law.
Being too capable can easily turn the world upside down and turn the sword upside down. The situation in the Zhao family is also very tense, and there will be no shortage of internal struggles, but they are not fierce.
After all, the Zhao family has two people at the celestial realm, and Zhao Man cannot compete with them.
However, the future trend lies with Zhao Man. After all, Zhao Man is the youngest. Unless the Zhao family has another celestial being, something bad will happen sooner or later. But expelling Zhao Man is not an option, as that would mean the Zhao family will lose their future.
We can only hope that the descendants of the Zhao family will strive to be better and produce a genius in the future.
After analyzing the situation of the Zhao family, Dou Changsheng looked at the sky which had begun to darken. The sun was setting and the sky and the earth were dim.
Dou Changsheng went to the banquet, and this time he only brought Monk Xiao, Wu Junyi and the third prince. Xiao Yuanxiang and Concubine Xiao were not suitable to show up in public.
The group of four arrived at the Zhao family in a short while.
In the past, wealthy and powerful families were all established outside the city and had their own manors.
This is their private land, where they can set up formations and arrange strange objects, and the imperial court will not interfere.
But if it is in the city, that won't work. You have to report to the government. If you set up the formation privately, it will be considered treason.
This aspect is extremely strict. Otherwise, if every family sets up a formation, the city will be divided, which will reduce the court's control over the city.
But the five cities in the world are exceptions. There are ancient formations here, and all major forces like to stay in them. It is much safer here than outside the city.
Moreover, even the imperial court was unable to dismantle this formation because the resistance was too great and they were also powerless.
The Zhao family is one of the top ten aristocratic families. Their name was engraved on a stone tablet and was recognized by Luo Jing.
This naturally occupies an ancient building.
This is a mansion covering a vast area, and the plaque on it reads "Huoyun Mansion".
This text is a special kind of text, an inscription of the Heavenly Dao. Even if you don’t recognize it, you can understand its meaning just by taking a look at it.
These words have power and can mobilize the power of heaven and earth.
The core of talismans evolved from the inscriptions of the Heavenly Dao.
The owner of this mansion was one of the people who founded Luojing in the past. If Luojing was a company, he would also have shares in it.
The gate of Huoyun Mansion was wide open. The Patriarch of the Zhao Family had been waiting for a long time. When he saw Dou Changsheng coming, he took the initiative to greet him and said, "Greetings to His Royal Highness Prince Qian."
Dou Changsheng raised his hand and said, "No need to be polite."
In the past, Dou Changsheng would have taken the initiative to step forward and help, but now that he has more experience in the martial arts world, Dou Changsheng doesn't dare to do so.
Since their debut, many famous and powerful people have died tragically in sneak attacks.
Not to mention other things for now, the abbot of Hanshan Temple was killed by old man Cangwu with one sword.
The head of the Zhao family personally led Dou Changsheng in, and also greeted the Laughing Monk. It was obvious that after the Laughing Monk lost the influence of the Nalanda Temple, the Zhao family paid more attention to the Laughing Monk, because this monk was already a lone wolf.
The abbot of Nalanda Monastery has to abide by the rules and there are many things he cannot do, but a person at the peak of the Heavenly Man Realm can act without restraint.
The corridors, pavilions, rockery and lakes in Huoyun Mansion are full of poetic and picturesque atmosphere, as if you have come to a Jiangnan garden. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is like fairy air, filled with a sense of ethereality.
They arrived at the pavilion in the middle of the lake and sat down.
The Patriarch of the Zhao family took the initiative to speak: "I invited His Royal Highness Prince Qian to come here because I have something to discuss with you."
"The blood demon is born, bringing disaster to the world."
"Innocent people have been killed one after another. The children of my Zhao family have been killed one after another."
"I want to ask the court what countermeasures it has?"
The head of the Zhao family was not polite and went straight to the point.
A large number of members of the ten major families were killed. This loss was too heavy. You have to know that among the people who evacuated, although most of them were mediocre, many of them were elites of the family and were placed with high hopes. Now they are all dead.
The Zhao family suffered heavy losses, and it can be said that their future was almost ruined.
If it weren't for the fact that each family was wealthy and powerful, and if some of them hadn't left, they would have fallen into despair long ago and who knows what they would have done.
Dou Changsheng had no idea how the imperial court would deal with this. He had been concerned about the situation in the imperial capital during this period. News from the imperial capital kept coming in, but the imperial court was like a blind man and did not see the blood demon appear at all. It was not even discussed in the court.
Dou Changsheng hesitated for a moment, then began to speak: "The appearance of the Blood Demon is a world-shaking event."
"You have to know that the Blood Demon is immortal and can only be sealed. This is no longer something we can handle."
"The news has been reported, and we are waiting for their response."
Waiting for Emperor Taizu's reply.
The head of the Zhao family understood what Dou Changsheng meant.
But this sentence is complete nonsense. How could Emperor Taizu not know such news?
The head of the Zhao family was unhappy. What he wanted was a reaction from the imperial court, but Dou Changsheng was playing Tai Chi with him.
When the Zhao family patriarch was about to speak again, heavy footsteps were heard. He looked towards the lake and saw Zhao Man walking slowly towards him.
With every step taken, ripples appeared on the surface of the lake and began to spread.
The patriarch of the Zhao family frowned. This time when he invited Dou Changsheng, he did not plan to let Zhao Man accompany him. This man began to constantly win over the priests and guests, and had already shown signs of losing control. Therefore, the patriarch of the Zhao family did not want to have this outsider present when discussing important matters.
But I never thought that without inviting Zhao Man, she would come to me on her own initiative.
This would have been impossible in the past. The other party would at most compete with Zhao Hongying and had always been very respectful to him.
The Patriarch of the Zhao family was annoyed, but he remained calm and took the initiative to introduce the lecture, "Allow me to introduce His Royal Highness Prince Qian."
The Zhao family patriarch had not finished speaking before he was interrupted by Zhao Man, who said in a cold voice, "Patriarch, there is no need to say more."
"Your Highness Prince Qian already knows who I am."
Zhao Man walked into the pavilion, bowed and said, "I am Zhao Man, the commander of the Zhenshou Division, and I pay my respects to Your Highness."
The Zhao family patriarch stood up suddenly, knocking over the table in front of him, and the wine cup fell to the ground, spilling the wine inside. He said with a gloomy expression: "What does the court mean by this?"
"My Zhao family helped Emperor Taizu capture Luojing and made great contributions to the stability of the country."
"In order to conquer the vast mountains and rivers of the East, countless martyrs of my Zhao family shed their blood on the battlefield."
"Aren't you afraid that people all over the world will be chilled by such actions?"
Zhao Man sneered and said:
"You are able to live in luxury and become one of the ten great families because of the power of the imperial court, but you actually think that it is because of your own abilities."
"It's a real joke."
"Your Highness Prince Qian, please give the order to exterminate the Zhao family."
