Ascension Through Generations
Chapter 24 Fifty years of vicissitudes
Noisy!
Zhao Sheng's clothes suddenly moved automatically without any wind, and the powerful aura belonging to an innate extreme warrior suddenly burst out, instantly "flooding" the entire reception hall like a stormy sea.
At this moment, the air seemed to solidify.
The ancestor of the Blood Knife, who bore the brunt of the attack, suddenly had his eyes bulging out. He felt that his eyes were filled with blood, and there was even more endless murderous intent coming towards him.
For a moment, he felt that his hands and feet were cold and stiff, and there was a slight chill on his neck, and he seemed to smell the smell of blood.
The next moment, Chang Meng suddenly felt like the world was spinning. His vision suddenly went up a lot, but soon fell down. In the end, there was more of a headless corpse in his vision, wearing a bright red robe.
"It looks familiar. Who is it? It seems to be -"
The next moment, he suddenly fell into boundless darkness, but when there was only the last trace of consciousness left, Chang Meng suddenly remembered, "...It seems to be me!
However, in the eyes of everyone, they only saw that as soon as the word "Noisy" came out, the head of the Blood Knife Ancestor suddenly fell from his neck without any warning.
However, some people saw the entire process of Zhao Sheng's action.
This person is the old Taoist priest from Chang Meng's side.
He saw with his own eyes a ray of incredibly fast blue light flying out of the hanging cuffs of the old man with no arm, and instantly passed through the neck of the Blood Knife Ancestor, as easily as a knife slicing a watermelon.
In addition, he did not sense any fluctuations in spiritual energy.
However, this makes it look even more terrifying!
"Senior, have mercy on me!" The old Taoist priest suddenly knelt down and kowtowed to Zhao Sheng repeatedly to beg for mercy.
The elders of the Zhao family were greatly surprised when they saw that the Blood Knife ancestor was dealt with so easily. Their eyes looking at Zhao Sheng were full of awe and intimacy.
At this time, Zhao Sheng quickly calmed down from his anger.
His expression was calm, as if he had just done something not worth mentioning.
In fact, this matter is really not worth mentioning.
Over the years, Zhao Sheng has killed more than two dozen qi-refining cultivators, so a mere innate master is of no concern.
Zhao Sheng ignored the old Taoist priest and looked at Zhao Zhijing.
Zhao Zhijing coughed and said to the old Taoist priest: "Explain the matter clearly and you will live. If you hide anything, I will make your life worse than death!"
The old Taoist priest was overjoyed when he saw this, and immediately revealed all the causes and consequences.
It turns out that Liang Guobingtai suddenly issued a secret reward mission three months ago. The mission is to ""invite"" Zhao Yujie, the third young master of the Zhao family, to Qingfeng City, the capital of the Liang Kingdom.
Chang Mengming, the ancestor of Blood Knife, is not only a big boss in the world, but secretly he is also the gold medal guest of Black Ice Platform.
He was greedy for the huge bounty on the mission, so he took over the mission first.
However, after Chang Meng arrived in Nanyang City, he could not find any trace of Zhao Yujie, so he tried to find Zhao Yujie under the guise of accepting a disciple.
"...So we just want to ask the third young master of your family to visit Qingfeng City. There is really no harm in it. Please show your respect and spare Xiaodao's life." After the old Taoist priest finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Sheng eagerly.
After Zhao Zhijing found out the whole story, his expression was gloomy and uncertain, as if there was something difficult to decide.
However, Zhao Xuanyi and the four clan elders suddenly showed expressions of enlightenment.
I see!
"It seems that Dongling Gong is determined to be a traitor. Our Zhao family has repeatedly rejected him. He actually wants to forcefully recruit Yujie as his wife. It is simply unreasonable!" An elder said angrily.
But Zhao Xuanyi had a wry smile on his face.
Dongling Gong is a branch of the Liang family of the Liang Kingdom, and the Liang family is a family that builds its foundation and cultivates immortality.
The reason why Lord Dongling is so perseverant is not just to recruit a son-in-law, but more likely to use Jie'er as a fertility tool.
The clan elders didn't know the inside story, so they couldn't understand Duke Dongling's crazy behavior.
You must know that the descendants of immortal cultivators do not necessarily have spiritual roots, and most of them are mortals. And the birth rate of spiritual roots will drop rapidly from generation to generation.
If the descendants of five consecutive generations do not have spiritual roots, it means that no descendants with spiritual roots will be born in the future.
The Dongling Gong family is now facing this extremely embarrassing situation.
At this time, Zhao Zhijing had already made a decision.
He opened his mouth and gave instructions: "Xuan Yong, Xuan Xin, you two take this man down and interrogate him in detail to see if any details have been missed. Xuan Hua and Xuan Wei Qian will lead people to clean this place up."
"Yes, third uncle." The four elders of the Zhao family immediately bowed and said yes.
After Zhao Zhijing finished speaking, he turned to look at Zhao Sheng and invited: "Old Jiu, shall we brothers go to the inner study to have a chat?"
Zhao Sheng nodded with a serious expression.
Zhao Zhijing looked at Zhao Xuanyi again and said, "Xuanyi, come with me! I have worked hard for you these years."
…
Two hours later, when Zhao Sheng listened to the ups and downs that the Zhao family had experienced over the years, he felt sad and emotional.
For their sake, the Zhao family's vitality was severely damaged.
After Zhao Sheng's family dispersed and fled, the head of the family at the time, Zhao Hexing, suddenly killed all the insiders with his own hands, and then ordered the clan members to scatter and escape. In the end, he committed suicide and died a heroic death.
Just one day later, the Zhou family tracked them down, but everyone who knew about Zhao Sheng's family's escape was already dead.
Not finding any clues, the Zhou family went crazy and went on a killing spree in the Zhao family.
After the Zhou family left, the third family of Zhao Jiaren and Liyi suffered heavy casualties, and most of their direct descendants died.
The Zhao family's vitality was severely damaged and they had to take the initiative to shrink their sphere of influence and chose to lie dormant and lick their wounds.
It was not until thirty years later, when Zhao Zhijing was promoted to Xiantian, that the Zhao family finally regained its strength.
Over the decades, only the eldest son Zhao Chenggong, the eldest son of Zhao Sheng's seven children, returned to the Zhao family with his wife and children ten years later.
And his son is Zhao Xuanyi.
When Zhao Xuanyi knelt down and kowtowed to Zhao Sheng, Zhao Sheng felt sad and happy for a while, and his mood was extremely complicated.
His eldest son Zhao Chenggong did not wait for his return and died three years ago.
But Zhao Chenggong is lucky, at least he can still be buried in his ancestral land. On the contrary, Chengfeng, Chengzhao and the six of them have not been heard from for so many years, and it is not known whether they are still alive today.
After the grandfather and grandson recognized each other, Zhao Sheng briefly talked about various things that had happened to him over the past few decades.
He didn't make it too clear, and he was even more vague in some places.
He didn't mean to hide it, but to protect the Zhao family.
Because Zhao Sheng was not sure whether the Zhou family had given up on tracing their whereabouts.
This is one of the reasons why Zhao Sheng returned to his hometown alone.
Before returning, he was mentally prepared to commit suicide at any time.
Because the concept of time in the world of immortality is different from that in the mortal world.
A foundation-building monk can live for more than two hundred years, while the fake elixir master has a lifespan of five hundred years, and the golden elixir master is even comparable to Peng Zu, with a full eight hundred lifespan.
Therefore, a hundred years is not a long time in the view of the Immortal Cultivation Family.
Even if Zhao Sheng said it vaguely, it was enough for Zhao Zhijing and Zhao Xuanyi.
The magnificent and mysterious world of immortality, immortality cultivators who draw talismans, cast spells, and fly with weapons, all kinds of unheard-of spiritual plants and medicines, and so on.
Both of them were shocked, and they became more and more envious of those cultivators who could live hundreds or even thousands of years.
