Chapter 3 The Disaster Of Su Family, Su Changsheng Is Out, Let’S Go To War

"Ladies and gentlemen, let's discuss our strategy on how to deal with the relentless attacks from the Gu Family."

Su Family's patriarch, with a solemn expression, sat at the head seat, his imposing face looking at the crowd.

At this moment, in the main hall of the clan meeting, dozens of clan elders and seniors were seated separately.

According to the color of their clothes,

they were divided into white, black, and purple, corresponding to the white-robed elders, black-robed elders, and purple-robed elders.

White robes were the lowest, while purple robes were the highest.

There were not many purple-robed elders, all of them were supreme elders, all of them were cultivators in the Everlasting Realm.

They usually secluded themselves in cultivation, striving to break through their realms or guarding important places, and generally did not inquire about the situation within the clan.

But this time, except for the two supreme elders guarding the secret grounds, all of them appeared unprecedentedly, only for Su Family's current crisis.

Su Family is a first-class power in the True Saint Continent, located in the Northern Wilderness, ruling over tens of thousands of miles of land as the overlord, standing tall like a dynasty.

The neighboring power is the Gu Family, the White Cloud Dynasty, both of which are first-class powers, dividing the Northern Wilderness together, standing opposite each other, forming a triangular balance.

In addition to the three major powers, there are also numerous large and small forces distributed, like many small planets revolving around a star.

However, for some unknown reason, the Gu Family, which has always maintained a balance with the Su Family, suddenly surged in strength last year and launched a fierce attack on the Su Family.

The Su Family's industry is being eroded crazily from all aspects.

The veins, commerce, resources, and everything else have been targeted by the Gu Family, causing great losses to the Su Family within just one year.

Not only have many of the strong members of the clan fallen, but the industry has also suffered severe damage, almost collapsing by half.

During this period, the Su Family did not refrain from counterattacking, even igniting a large-scale war.

However, during this outbreak, it was discovered that for some unknown reason, the power of the Gu Family suddenly surged, with the number of strong members in the clan far exceeding that of the Su Family.

After a fierce battle, the Su Family suffered heavy losses, with two elders of the Everlasting Realm falling.

Now, only seven remain.

If it weren't for the critical moment when they used the means left behind by the ancestor who closed himself off before, they would have been driven away by the strong members of the Gu Family.

It is feared that the Su Family may be wiped out.

"The Gu Family must have either joined a top power or obtained a great opportunity; otherwise, their power could not have surged so much out of nowhere!"

A purple-robed elder spoke in a deep voice.

His face was old, with white hair and beard. He had lived for a long time, but his eyes still flickered with a terrifying light, like a fearsome beast, making people unable to help but feel frightened.

Cultivators of the Everlasting Realm, known as Venerables of Ten Thousand Ages, can live for ten thousand years, naturally possessing their own terrifying aspects.

"Now, we can only retreat to Heavenly Origin City and give up most of our industry when facing the Gu Family. Only then can we barely survive!"

Another Supreme Elder spoke coldly.

She was a white-haired woman, beautiful and stunning, with a cold and noble demeanor. Despite her white hair, she couldn't hide her peerless grace.

"Abandoning most of our industries?"

Upon hearing this, not only were the elders shocked, but even the clan chief on the seat was furious.

"Am I supposed to give up all the resources that the Su Family has accumulated for thousands of years? That is the foundation that the Ancestor worked so hard to establish!"

The eyes of the Su Family's chief turned red.

He was a descendant of the Su Changsheng lineage and held great respect for the legendary Ancestor Su Changsheng.

Thousands of years ago, the Su Family was just an ordinary third-rate family, with the strongest member only at the Law Manifestation Realm.

It was Su Changsheng who rose to power and led the Su Family to become a first-rate force, dominating a hundred thousand miles of land and gaining fame throughout the entire True Saint Continent.

It can be said that the Su Family's current status was almost entirely built by Su Changsheng's efforts.

Now, the purple-robed Supreme Elder wants to abandon the Su Family's industries. Doesn't that mean giving up the foundation that the Ancestor worked so hard to establish?

"Elder Suqing, this is no joke!"

The chief of the Su Family's face darkened, staring at the white-haired woman with anger in his voice.

"The Su Family today was built by the Ancestor. With your suggestion, aren't you afraid that the Ancestor will blame you when he comes out of seclusion?"

"Or perhaps, you have already betrayed the Su Family and joined the Gu Family?"

Upon hearing this, the hearts of the elders trembled.

Especially the other purple-robed Supreme Elders, their faces changed.

Su Changsheng!

For them, as Supreme Elders, this was also a name that resounded like thunder.

And they held great reverence for him.

Although they were all cultivators at the Everlasting Realm, the Su Family only had one Ancestor, Su Changsheng.

As for them, they were just Supreme Elders, and the gap between their status and Su Changsheng was too great.

It should be noted that Su Changsheng had roamed the True Saint Continent for thousands of years, known as the Starfall King, and was invincible in the Everlasting Realm.

The number of peak Everlasting Realm powerhouses who died at his hands exceeded twenty.

He even had a battle where he fought against three Semi-Saints for three days and three nights, ultimately killing them all.

That battle made Su Changsheng's name shake the True Saint Continent.

If it weren't for the fact that the Ancestor of Eternal Life has been in seclusion for hundreds of years and has never appeared, how could the Gu Family dare to be so arrogant?

"Su Yun, do you think I'm willing to do this? This Su Family was also built up by watching Changsheng brother's hard work. But if we keep fighting with the Gu Family, the Su Family will eventually be dragged down!"

Elder Su Qing, with a calm expression, did not become angry because of Su Family's words.

She is a figure from the same period as Su Changsheng, a direct relative, and greatly admires Su Changsheng. Naturally, she will not betray the interests of the Su Family and become a traitor.

"Instead of being dragged down by the Gu Family, it's better to proactively shrink our power and preserve the strength of the family. As long as Brother Changsheng comes out of seclusion, all problems will be solved!"

Elder Su Qing continued.

"Su Yun, you must remember that what this world values is not so-called industries or resources, but strength!"

"What does giving up temporary industries matter? As long as Brother Changsheng comes out of seclusion, everything can be resolved!"

"And if Brother Changsheng cannot come out of seclusion, then not only will we have to give up most of our industries, but in order to preserve the bloodline of the Su Family, we may even have to give up the foundation of the Su Family!"

Although these words were understated, they shocked everyone present.

For a while, several elders, including the head of the Su Family, fell silent.

They all understood the meaning behind Elder Su Qing's words.

The Ancestor of Eternal Life is currently in seclusion, attempting to break through to the Saint realm.

This matter is only known by a few elders and the head of the Su Family.

If the Ancestor of Eternal Life comes out of seclusion, it means the breakthrough was successful, and even if it's not the best outcome, his strength will greatly increase.

Naturally, he will be able to easily suppress all small fry and effortlessly resolve the crisis facing the Su Family.

But if he cannot come out of seclusion?

That would mean a failed breakthrough, and he may even perish directly.

At that time, without Su Changsheng as the pillar supporting the sky, the decline of the Su Family would be inevitable, coupled with the relentless pursuit of the Gu Family.

If they don't want their clan to be annihilated, they can only give up Heavenly Origin City and seek refuge in a foreign land.

For a while, the entire family meeting was filled with a heavy atmosphere.

"What!?"

Just at this moment, on the front seat of the meeting, a black-robed elder frowned. He received a message and his face suddenly changed, unable to hide his shock.

He is an elder responsible for intelligence in the family, a peak Empty Void realm expert, a half-step Everlasting Realm top powerhouse.

"What's going on?"

His exclamation immediately attracted the attention of everyone. The gazes of the five elders, including Su Yun, and the six Everlasting Realm Venerables, all turned towards him.

It was as if the substantial impact of the Great Dao could almost intimidate the Empty Void Realm.

Even as a cultivator at the half-step Everlasting Realm, he felt a suffocating sensation at this moment.

"The Gu Family has mobilized a large number of powerful individuals, dozens of Law Manifestation Realm experts, over ten Empty Void Realm experts, and seven Everlasting Realm experts. They are fully attacking the Violet Mysterious Heaven, intending to occupy it!"

The elder in black had an extremely ugly expression.

"What?!"

Everyone present changed their expressions.

The Violet Mysterious Heaven was the most important foundation and heritage of their Su Family, a broken small world.

For the Gu Family to attack there now meant that they wanted to uproot the Su Family!

"The Gu Family has gone too far!"

Su Yun slammed his hand heavily, unable to hold back his roar. The aura of the Everlasting Realm erupted, shaking the entire Su Family hall.

"We must go to war!"

A group of radical elders also roared in anger.

They were already extremely frustrated, and now they were completely ignited by the Gu Family.

"Then let's go to war!"

The group of elders looked at each other, and Elder Su Qing sighed helplessly. Her beautiful face remained unchanged, but her tone turned cold.

After all, she was a cultivator at the sixth level of the Everlasting Realm. How could she be someone who feared death, having fought her way up from a lower realm?

Moreover, the Violet Mysterious Heaven was the foundation and heritage of the Su Family, even more important than Heavenly Origin City. It was a small world that could be moved, the hope for the Su Family's resurgence.

The Su Family could abandon all their other industries, but not this small world.

It should be known that back then, in order to compete for this small world, Su Changsheng had killed several peak Everlasting Realm overlords, staining the heavens and earth with blood, shaking the land for tens of thousands of miles.

Su Qing would never sit idly by and let the Gu Family take away the Violet Mysterious Heaven. Even if it meant fighting to the death, she would not hesitate.

"Then let's fight!"

Just as the group of elders were filled with anger and excitement, a calm voice sounded in the hall.

"The Su Family doesn't provoke trouble, but we're not afraid of trouble!"

The next second, Su Yun and the five Grand Elders all widened their eyes.

Their expressions were filled with joy.
