Chapter 499: Betrayal

There is currently no one in the Huo family who can take action against the Chen family.

Even Huo Xingli himself was not sure. He was only in the middle stage of Zifu and thought that he would be killed if he took action.

Several people discussed quickly for a while and finally decided to seek foreign aid first.

Try to invite Zhou Zhiheng to come forward as the last straw for the Huo family.

Before Huo Xinglong left the clan, he deliberately left a backup plan and temporarily handed over a jade messenger talisman on his body to Huo Xingli.

This jade talisman is a second-level magic weapon, with three pieces in total.

The three communication jade talismans are interconnected, and timely communication can be carried out at will, at any time, and anywhere.

The largest communication range is enough to cover most of the star sea.

Of the three jade charms for communication, the Huo family has two, and Zhou Zhiheng has one in his hand.

Huo Xingli told the whole story clearly and sent a summons to Zhou Zhiheng.

As long as Zhou Zhiheng is willing to come forward, with his peak Zifu strength and Wuyin Island as his background backer.

The Chen family did not dare to act rashly, provoke Wuyin Island, and offend this golden elixir Taoist.

Kirigakure Island, inside the sect's alchemy room.

An old man with a solemn face and dressed in the clothes of an elder was refining a furnace of foundation-building pills in accordance with the sect's mission.

As one of the only six third-level alchemists in the sect, Zhou Zhiheng has been refining alchemy for three consecutive months in order to collect his good deeds and exchange them for a jade tablet from the Immortal Mansion.

Noticing the strange movement of the jade communication talisman on his body, Zhou Zhiheng did not take it out to check.

It was not until half a stick of incense was burned that the elixir was finished in a leisurely manner, and then the communication about the jade talisman was communicated and the details were checked.

"The Huo family."

Zhou Zhiheng read the content of the summons inside and raised his white eyebrows slightly.

He was somewhat confident in dealing with a peak cultivator from Zi Mansion, and he did have a trump card in his hand.

But confronting the two top leaders of the Chen family made him fearful.

What's more important is that Huo Xinglong and the three of them are no match for Chen Qingyun and Chen Xianming.

Naturally, we cannot take such a big risk.

Otherwise, the trump cards accumulated in the Reclusive Immortal Mansion would be wasted on behalf of the Huo family in advance, and one's own foundation would be compromised.

At this moment, in Zhou Zhiheng's view, after all, he was only in contact with the Huo family and could not be considered to be in the same boat.

The more advanced a monk is in cultivation, the less likely he is to fight with monks of the same level. He just wants to spend more time practicing and avoid life-and-death fights.

After just thinking for a moment, Zhou Zhiheng put away the jade communication talisman, pretended that he had not seen anything, and continued to refine the next elixir.

Xingluo Islands, Huo Family.

Seeing that he had not received a reply even after the summons was sent out, Huo Xingli had a bad expectation in his heart.

"Wait a little longer."

But he still took chances and continued to wait nervously.

Until two hours passed while everyone was waiting anxiously, there was still no news from the summons, just like a stone sinking into the sea.

Until this moment, Huo Xingli extinguished the last glimmer of hope in his heart and realized the result.

The communication jade talisman is created for the immediate exchange of information.

There is even no need to take out the jade talisman.

The moment the subpoena is sent, the content of the subpoena will appear in the mind of the other party in the form of mana, forming words and pictures.

Afraid of disturbing Zhou Zhiheng, Huo Xingli tried his best to convey the information in writing.

Even so, even in a closed state, the other party can get the message reminder, and it is impossible not to see it.

"how so."

Seeing that there was no reply, Huo Xingli was very experienced in dealing with people, and he still didn't understand what Zhou Zhiheng meant.

With such a reaction, it was obvious that Zhou Zhiheng was ignoring this matter and wanted to stay out of the matter, ignoring the survival of the Huo family.

Failure to respond is rejection.

"Zhou Zhiheng!"

Huo Xingli felt dissatisfied and could only sigh heavily in the end.

At this moment, I finally realized that it is better to rely on outsiders than to rely on myself, and the sword should always be held in my own hands.

But what's the use of understanding this now.

"My Huo family has treated you well over the years, but in times of crisis, you choose to stand aside and turn your back on me."

"Hahaha, what a Zhou Zhiheng, what a golden elixir Taoist! Hahahaha..."

Now that the matter has come to this, Huo Xingli can only make a decisive decision without further delay. He immediately proposes to relocate the entire family and flee the Inner Star Sea as quickly as possible.

Not to mention committing suicide to fight against the Chen family and avenge Huo Xinglong and others, at least to preserve the family bloodline and continue the inheritance.

More than half of the senior leaders of the Huo family can distinguish the pros and cons.

After learning that Huo Xinglong and the others were united against Chen Qingyun, they even took out the family's most precious black fire talisman.

Now, they are still buried in the hands of Chen Qingyun. Everyone is shocked and frightened, and they simply do not dare to go against the Chen family again.

Zhou Zhiheng's staying out of the incident made them realize that the only way to save themselves was to evacuate.

The Chen family is not that easy to deal with, this is definitely a fierce tiger.

In order to avoid the possible anger from the Chen family, they could only follow Huo Xingli's suggestion and move the clan members to various places overnight to preserve their bloodline as much as possible.

Huojiabao, this spiritual island, cannot stay any longer.

The island's protective formation could withstand the Chen family for a while, but not forever.

The other powerful enemies of the Huo family, the Ling family and the Sun family, both of whom are also in the Star Luo Islands, are tough characters to crack.

If the two families take action at this juncture, we will simply not be able to resist it.

Realizing that their opponent was too strong to fight, the top leaders of the Huo family quickly raised their hands and agreed to evacuate as a whole.

Time is precious and cannot be delayed any longer.

Huo Xingling took the lead and called on more than 20 family foundation builders to quickly plunder most of the classics and treasures in the library, spiritual medicine garden, alchemy room, etc., and take as many as possible.

There were more than 100,000 ancient scrolls and classics alone, filling more than a dozen storage bags. There was no time to look at them carefully, so they could only try to pick the important ones to take away.

It would take more time to pick the spiritual medicines in the spiritual medicine garden one by one.

Huo Xingling focused on picking the second-level and third-level spiritual medicines to take away.

Even if they were not yet mature, they were picked in advance, more or less, and they still had some medicinal properties, which was better than leaving them to the Chen family.

It took more than an hour just to pack these family resources.

In the end, Huo Xingli took away more than 30 second-level spiritual talismans and a small number of third-level spiritual talismans from the family library.

Among them, there was also a top-level talisman treasure.

This talisman is a killing treasure, named Tianyou Heavy Water Talisman. It is the treasure of the Huo family that has been treasured for more than 600 years. It comes from Huo Shaoyuan, the founder of the Huo family.

Once the Tianyou Heavy Water Talisman is used, it can burst out a full-strength attack comparable to that of a Jindan early stage cultivator.

Even after more than 600 years, the power sealed in the talisman has been lost, and only about 60% to 70% of the peak state remains.

But it is enough to confront Jindan cultivators head-on.

"Huo Xinglong, Huo Xinglong, if you had used this Tianyou Heavy Water Talisman earlier, I'm afraid you wouldn't have been killed by the Chen family's purple mansion."

"It's a pity that we have always treated it as a treasure, but we are reluctant to use it when it should be used the most."

Huo Xingli carefully put away the Tianyou Heavy Water Talisman, gritted his teeth secretly, and was actually a little hesitant at this moment.
