Peerless War God

On the two sides of the Jingbian City, Chen Xiao casually opened up a cave in the mountain. As a temporary cave, it was a quiet place to meditate and cultivate.    

In this place, one could look down at the entire Jingbian City and could control the Dragon Sealing Killing Array at any time. It could be said that it was absolutely safe.    

After tidying up, Chen Xiao put away the materials that the Third Prince gave him, but he understood something.    

"It seems that this Third Prince wants to rope me in and support him. He is willing to give me these treasures. Fine, if it's possible, I can help him for one or two times."    

Chen Xiao thought.    

As the old saying went, one should be lenient when dealing with others. He had taken quite a few good things from the Third Prince.    

He would never forget these favors.    

"Among these materials, there are a few that can be directly consumed to cultivate and strengthen one's combat strength. However, most of them need to be refined into pills before they can be used to their fullest effect."    

Chen Xiao knew what to do, so he did not hesitate.    

If he wanted to refine pills, it was naturally the Profound Pill Sect that was the most skilled. However, he did not have the time to leave now.    

Shaking his head, he eliminated these distracting thoughts and sat down in meditation to cultivate.    

"Since I've come, then I should settle the matters at hand first."    

…    

Within the residence of the Zheng Clan.    

“Father, the Third Prince has really forgiven us and stopped monitoring us?”    

Zheng Long’s face was filled with happiness, and he felt as if he’d just escaped death. He paced back and forth, and he was extremely worried. He’d finally been able to let out a sigh of relief today, and he’d gotten his life back.    

Zheng Yuanwu sighed and said, “Yes, the Third Prince personally told me just now that he stopped monitoring us, and it can be considered as giving our family a chance to live.”    

When he spoke up to here, Zheng Long’s expression froze. “A chance to live? What orders does the Third Prince have?”    

He naturally knew that the Third Prince wasn’t a kind person. A prince that dared to casually kill Fan Ren’s nine clansmen was absolutely a ruthless and merciless person.    

Perhaps the Third Prince wasn’t qualified to deal with Lord Zhan, but if he wanted to deal with a powerhouse clan like theirs, then it would absolutely be effortless.    

Because of this, the Zheng Clan had remained dormant for so long, and they were trembling with fear and didn’t dare to move at all. They hoped that the Third Prince would be merciful and forgive them.    

When he spoke up to here, Zheng Yuanwu had a complicated expression as he glanced at Zheng Long.    

“Long’er, what’s your current cultivation?”    

Zheng Long was slightly surprised. Why did Zheng Yuanwu suddenly ask about this? But he still replied, “This child is slow-witted, and the clan’s entire cultivation resources are used on me. Presently, I’m only at the intermediate-stage of the Tribulation Transcender Realm, and my strength is far from sufficient.”    

Zheng Yuanwu nodded and said, “Middle-stage Tribulation Transcender? That’s not too low, and he can be considered to be able to support a clan.”    

Zheng Long’s expression changed greatly when he heard this. This was the first time that Zheng Yuanwu spoke to him like this, and it clearly carried the intention of giving him an explanation.    

“This… Father, what’s going on? Why did you say such a depressing thing?”    

Zheng Long was slightly flustered.    

Zheng Yuanwu sighed and said, “You ought to know that even though the Third Prince has shown mercy and given us a way out, this way out is paved with the lives of our clansmen. Do you understand?”    

“This…”    

When he heard this, Zheng Long’s face instantly turned snow white, and he understood something.    

“Father, you mean the Blackheaven Divine Sect?”    

“Yes, it seems like you’re very smart, and you’re not stupid at all. Father is very pleased that you were able to think of this point so quickly. However, Father is in a very painful state right now, so what do you think I should do?”    

Since he’d already come to this step, he naturally knew that if he stretched his head out, it would be a stab, and if he pulled his head back, it would still be a stab.    

However, knowing was one thing, and if he had to personally give the order to have his clansmen and juniors die, or even be reduced to cannon fodder and be buried, it was another matter.    

Zheng Yuanwu felt extreme pain in his heart, and it was difficult for him to make this choice.    

Zheng Long understood, and his gaze was especially resolute. “Father, at a time like this, what are you still hesitating for? The path of cultivation has always been like this, and it’s brutal and bloody. If you don’t die, then you’ll die. The reason our clan is able to survive until now is because the Third Prince is magnanimous and forgiving, and he gave us a chance to atone for our sins. If we don’t grasp this opportunity, then we’ll definitely regret it later.”    

Zheng Yuanwu had a helpless expression as he sighed. “Yeah, if I don’t seize this opportunity, I’ll regret it. So, Father has already made a decision. I’ll lead the cultivators of my clan to battle the Black Heavens Divine Sect this time, and you’ll stay behind to take care of the overall situation. You must preserve the bloodline of my clan and not lose it.”    

Zheng Long was rather moved when he heard this, and he lowered his head. “I understand, Father. I’ll do it well.”    

“Mmm. In this way, I’ll feel at ease. Go, pass down the order to gather all the clansmen and guest elders to come to the hall for a meeting. We’ll move together. If anyone disobeys the orders and escapes without permission, then kill them without mercy.”    

Zheng Yuanwu’s eyes were filled with a cold light, and he was filled with killing intent.    

At this moment, he was in high spirits, and he seemed to have found his self again. He wasn’t the cowardly and trembling figure he was before the Third Prince, and he straightened his back once more.    

He was very clearly aware that shame could only be washed away with blood. If the Zheng Clan wanted to stand up straight from today onwards, then they could only use a bloodshed action to prove themselves.    

Right now, this opportunity was placed before him.    

Zheng Long had a solemn expression as he said, “Yes, Father.”    

“Go.”    

Zheng Long strode forward immediately, and numerous command talismans were sent out from within the Zheng Clan, and they spread throughout the entire Jingbian City.    

At the same time, the same thing happened in the Leng Clan.    

Before long, in a separate courtyard not far away from the Zheng Residence in Jingbian City, a large group of people had gathered together, and their expressions were filled with anxiety and terror that was difficult to conceal.    

“Yuvcheng, can you not go? I’m afraid that it will be very dangerous.”    

The old woman pulled Zheng Yuvcheng’s hand and said bitterly.    

Zheng Yuvcheng stared at the wrinkled old woman with white hair and then glanced at his father, who was sitting at the side with a cigarette in his hand and taking big gulps of smoke. A smile appeared on his face.    

“Dad, mom, don’t worry. Although this trip is dangerous, with my strength and means, it won’t be a problem for me to come back alive. You can rest assured.”    

Zheng Yuvcheng said in a deep voice.    

“But I heard that the Black Sky God Cult is a devilish cultivator who kills without blinking. They are very terrifying and eat people. You…”    

The old woman was about to say something, but she was interrupted.    

“Enough. You are a woman. Why are you so long-winded? Yuvcheng is already a Prominent Divine Realm cultivator and the head of our family. He knows everything. There is no need for you to teach him anymore.”    

“Wuwu.”    

The old woman covered her mouth and her eyes turned red. She sobbed softly and didn’t say anything else.    

However, the worry in her eyes became deeper.
