Peerless War God

The Fu Clan members who had escaped from the city quickly reacted and were filled with regret.    

This reward was too tempting. Among the Fu Clan members who had escaped, there was no lack of those with extraordinary strength. They were confident that it wouldn’t be difficult for them to enter the top one hundred in the clan competition. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity.    

For a time, Fu Yanshan’s death was completely forgotten. The hatred towards Fu Zhenghong also dissipated.    

In unison, more than half of the Fu Clan cultivators who had escaped in the chaos turned around and ran back.    

Seeing this, some of the people who were still in the same spot and hesitated were dumbfounded.    

“They’re going back now?”    

“You’re not going back? I have to go back. These conditions are too tempting. We have to go and fight for it. Perhaps we can even win a bottle of Return to Heaven Pill?”    

“Right, right, right. Let’s bet. It’s just the clan competition, it’s not like we haven’t participated before.”    

However, there were also some people who were like looking at a fool and cursed softly, “A bunch of idiots still want to go back? Do you really think that the ancestor didn’t stop us when we ran out of the city? What a joke. Once we come out, we won’t be able to go back. You really don’t know how stupid you are.”    

His voice was very low, and not many people heard it. Or perhaps even if some people heard it, they pretended not to hear it.    

Many Fu Clan disciples who had escaped in the chaos were also clear that once they came out, they wouldn’t be able to go back.    

However, when faced with the enticement of the family competition, he suddenly changed his mind and wanted to try his luck, hoping to be lucky.    

Soon, more than half of the people chose to go back in the direction of Fu Family City.    

The remaining people stayed where they were, their eyes filled with confusion.    

“What should we do next? Where should we go?” One of the cultivators stood up and asked.    

“Fu Zhenghong is too ruthless. He kills anyone he sees. We can’t go back to Fu Family City. The only option is to go to the Violet Cloud City. Maybe there’s still a chance of survival.”    

Another person replied.    

“Yes, let’s go to the Violet Cloud City.”    

“Yes, that’s right. The Violet Cloud City is the number one city in the South Kui Province. If we go there, we’ll definitely be given preferential treatment.”    

“Then it’s decided. Let’s go to the Violet Cloud City.”    

Immediately, the group of people chose a completely opposite direction amidst their confusion and uneasiness and headed towards the Violet Cloud City.    

On the other side, a large group of Fu Clan members finally returned to the Fu Family City after a lot of effort. However, they discovered that the city gate was tightly shut and the array formation had been reactivated.    

Immediately, everyone was shocked and had a bad premonition.    

However, there were still some people who didn’t give up. They rushed forward and wanted to call for the gate.    

“Open the gate. Hurry and open the gate. Let me in. I want to go back to the city. I won’t leave.”    

At this moment, the guards on the city wall saw this and replied expressionlessly, “The Patriarch has an order. Those without a hand order are not allowed to enter the city. Since you have already left, then leave. Don’t come back.”    

“That’s right. They’ve already chosen to leave, so why are they still licking their faces and coming back? What a disgrace. Let’s go.”    

The guards on the city wall were chasing them away like they were chasing away flies. They didn’t show any mercy.    

Some of them even started laughing loudly.    

All of this was the orders of the Patriarch. When these people left, they didn’t stop them, but when they returned, none of them were allowed to leave. The Patriarch was truly wise and had long predicted that these people would return.    

Humph, this should be the case. Since they’ve already chosen to leave, they shouldn’t come back.    

The guards’ words caused the hearts of the Fu Clan members who had left to feel a great deal of coldness.    

“No, we’re all from the same clan. You can’t do this. Open the gate and let us in.”    

“We beg the Patriarch to show mercy and let us go back. We know our mistakes and we know we’ve changed. We beg the Patriarch to show mercy.”    

“In the name of the Patriarch, we were foolish and made a huge mistake. We beg the Patriarch to show mercy!”    

The Fu Clan members who had left revealed bitter expressions as they begged repeatedly.    

However, their pleas didn’t draw any sympathy. Instead, it caused the guards on the city wall to laugh and scold them even louder. They ridiculed them loudly and mercilessly.    

For a time, the guards on the city wall started cursing each other. The scene was a bit comical.    

“Boss, what should we do? The number of people on the city wall is increasing. It seems like they heard the news of the Clan Competition and ran back.”    

On the city wall, a guard said.    

"Heh, let them scold. The door is not open. This is an order from the Patriarch himself. It is easy to leave the Fu Family City, but it is difficult to return. These idiots should remember this."    

The guard commander said sternly.    

"Yes, boss."    

"This is too ridiculous. They clearly escaped in the chaos, and now they want to take advantage of the situation? How can it be so easy in this world? Could it be that before these people left the city, they never thought about coming back? "    

"Maybe they didn't think about it?"    

"Hahaha."    

For a moment, the laughter and scolding on the city wall became louder and more cheerful. The Fu Family members who were fleeing below felt regretful, and their faces were extremely ugly.    

At the same time, in front of the Fu Family's Great Hall in the Fu Family City, the square was filled with people, and the air was boiling. Thousands of people were gathered here, cheering for the official start of the Family Competition.    

On the stairs, Fu Zhenghong was sitting upright, Chen Xiao was sitting next to him, and the Fu Family deacons and elders were standing with serious expressions. There were no seats.    

Chen Xiao's appearance caused quite a stir, and it also gave all the cultivators in the Fu Family City, whether they were Fu Family members or rogue cultivators, a reassuring feeling.    

"Look, is that Lord Chen Xiao? He really came."    

"It's him, it's him. Lord Chen Xiao, the Third City Lord of the Purple Cloud City, I even heard that Fu Xue was saved by him, and he has done a great favor to our Fu Family."    

"So that's how it is. With Lord Chen Xiao, an Immortal Realm expert, around, even the Black Sky Divine Sect won't be able to cause any trouble. We can rest assured."    

The crowd discussed endlessly, their eyes shining with excitement.    

After all, these were two Immortal Realm experts that were rarely seen. Being able to meet them at the same time was a rare opportunity.    

In the future, they would be able to talk about them to their descendants, making them extremely envious.    

At this moment, seeing that the time was up, Fu Zhenghong stood up and said, "I declare that the Family Competition has begun."    

"Oh."    

With that said, there was another wave of cheers.    

Then, following the order of the previous draw, the Family Competition began in an orderly manner. This time, the competition was only about the top and not about life and death.    

There were two huge rings in the plaza, which were very spacious. The two competitions were carried out at the same time, causing the plaza to be filled with noise and excitement.    

Fu Zhenghong saw all of this and her face was red with joy.    

"It seems that the situation is much better than I imagined."    

Before the real fight, she was very wary and could not make a decision in a short period of time. She was afraid that if she killed Fu Yanshan and his group, it would cause chaos in the family.    

In fact, the worst situation did not happen, and she was very happy.
