Chapter 262 The dust has settled

After personally sending Li Dihong and the others away.

Zhu Guiyou decided to hold a high-level family meeting.

On the way back, Zhu Guiyou suddenly thought of it.

At the beginning, he was still thinking that the monks of the Li family and the Ma family wanted the Zhu family to become a subsidiary force. As the patriarch, he must negotiate favorable conditions for them and keep the annual tribute to a minimum.

As a result, now he is actually happy to become a subordinate force of the Li family, and to become a subordinate force of the Li family, the Zhu family has to offer a miniature spiritual vein as a condition for becoming a subordinate force of the Li family.

Zhu Guiyou couldn't help but smile when he thought of this.

However, carefully recalling the negotiation process and the final chat, it is good to become a subsidiary force of the Li family. Ma Huanghuang also thinks highly of the Li family. Judging from the current situation in Wutong County, the independent Qi Refining and Immortal Cultivation Family should be in the future. Less and less.

After all, there has been a problem with the balance recently.

But it's hard for Zhu Guiyou to think about how long it will take before there will be a bigger change.

Now what he has to think about is how to explain the situation clearly to the family's senior management, and the decision has been made.

When Li Dihongsan left, it was almost dark.

In the evening, a high-level meeting of the Zhu family has been held.

There are six senior members of the family, including him as the patriarch, and they are all undoubtedly monks in the late stage of Qi refining.

"Clan leader, what are the monks from the Ma family and the Li family doing here?" The meeting had just begun, and Xiu couldn't help but ask.

After the family patriarch went to pick up the monks from the Li and Ma families, the senior family officials quickly learned of the situation.

The visit of the monks from these two families is definitely a very important thing for the Zhu family.

The senior members of the family did not interrupt their conversation with the patriarch. You can imagine how they felt now. Not only him, but other senior members of the Zhu family also wanted to know quickly what the two families were doing by sending monks here.

"This is what this meeting is about." Zhu Guiyou glanced at the other senior members of the family, and then said slowly, "The Li family needs us to sell the spiritual veins to them, and I will decide the price."

Zhu Guiyou would not tell the results all at once, as this would not reflect his value as a clan leader. The situation was very critical at the time, but fortunately he thought of the Wang family. In such a situation, few people should be able to think of his solution. .

Just as he thought, as soon as he finished speaking these contents, some senior members of the family became anxious.

"You can set the price at will, who would believe it! If you don't give them a reasonable price, will they be willing?"

"Why did the Li family choose our Zhu family? Among the Qi Refining families in Wutong County, our family is probably among the top five."

"This is not simple. Of course, our Zhu family is close to them. When transferring the spiritual veins in this way, not much of the spirit guide plate is consumed."

"..."

After Zhu Guiyou finished speaking, the family's senior officials began a heated discussion.

This is not good news for the Zhu family. During the discussion, many senior officials thought of what he, the clan leader, thought. They thought that the Li family and the Ma family came to discuss and hoped that the Zhu family would attach themselves to them. The result was that they wanted spiritual veins, which would kill them. The roots of the Zhu family.

At the end of the discussion, Zhu Fudong, the eldest member of the family, spoke up.

"Everyone should be quieter." He looked at Zhu Guiyou. At present, he was the only one in the Zhu family who could call the clan leader by his name. "My dear friend, what was the final situation? Did you really sell the family's spiritual veins?"

"Okay, second uncle." Zhu Guiyou nodded, and everyone was experiencing his original feeling. He was about to say, "Of course I don't plan to sell, but if I don't sell, our Zhu family will be ruined, so I thought of this method …”

Zhu Guiyou started to talk about the process. The process he said was relatively complicated, which mainly reflected his role as the patriarch.

Especially in times of crisis, some of the thoughts in his mind.

After all, this is a game with two foundation-building and immortal cultivating families. It is normal to be stressed. He also focused on the current relationship between the Ma family and the Li family. Without his last resort, without selling the family's spiritual veins, the family would surely be doomed.

"That's okay!"

"Well, the result is good."

The top management of the family expressed approval of his actions, which was considered as the Zhu family had overcome a crisis.

"I'm surprised that the Li family can send two late-stage Qi refiners to help us eliminate the Wang family." At the end of the conversation, Zhu Fudong also raised this point.

"Yes, I was also surprised at the time." Zhu Guiyou nodded in agreement, "Think about it carefully, if the Li family didn't send monks in the late stage of Qi refining to help us, I can also think that the Li family had already guessed that our Zhu family was struggling. In the end, we will definitely deal with the Wang family. This is to allow us to help them obtain a micro-spiritual vein for free. If something happens, we will bear the consequences."

"Clan leader, you think too much..."

"Hahaha, I also think that the patriarch has really thought a lot. What the Li family can do is not only investigate our Zhu family very carefully, but also investigate the Wang family very carefully. This consumes too much energy. , and they took action after the Ma family gained control of the Chang family again, and they had no time to do so. "

At this time, Zhu Fudong stroked his beard and smiled happily.

"According to your current thoughts about the Li family, they cannot do such a thing, but as the head of our Zhu family, it is always right to think more. The Li family is very generous in doing this, and it also helps us. The risks borne by the Zhu family... will become their affiliated forces, and we must think about them. After all, the Li family will become stronger in the future, which will also be beneficial to us. "

Zhu Guiyou nodded his approval. He also thought so at the end.

Since we have done it this way, we should do our best.

Now they hope that the Li family can develop well. If the Li family can continue to be kind to them, it is not necessarily a bad thing if he succeeds in building a foundation and makes the Zhu family a foundation-building family and continues to be a subsidiary of the Li family.

If there are cultivators in the affiliated Qi-refining forces of the foundation-building forces who have built their foundations, they can take the initiative to leave the affiliated forces.

In history, the foundation-building forces and the foundation-building affiliated families are generally not only strong in themselves, but also have good reputations.

…

At the end of the year.

On a night in December, heavy snow fell, and the snowflakes fell on the lake, as beautiful as an ink painting. The cold wind whistled, and the snowflakes blew into every corner, and the air was filled with a cold breath.

The spiritual vein of the Wutong Wang family was covered by heavy snow.

In the cold weather, the Wang family also ushered in the last moment of their family.

No matter where in the world of immortal cultivation, the Qi-refining immortal families appear and perish the most and fastest, especially in places like Wutong County, where the instability of Qi-refining immortal families is higher, and instability also represents opportunities.

The powerful Qi-refining immortal families in Wutong County generally have two spiritual veins in their families.

The spiritual vein of the Wang family has been spotted by the Zhu family since the day when the Wang family began to weaken.

Even if Li Dihong and the other two did not go to the Zhu family's ancestral land before, the Zhu family would definitely take action against the Wang family in five years at most.

Now it is just to advance this time. If they take action later, the Zhu family may have one more Qi-refining late-stage cultivator, which will make it easier to take down the Wang family and reduce the losses. Now with the help of the Li family, the original losses will be even smaller.

But this spiritual vein land is not their Zhu family's.

There was a corresponding plan, and the investigation of the Wang family was also clear, so there was no suspense in taking down this spiritual vein land in the end.

Seven days later.

The first day of the first lunar month.

The beginning of the new year.

The topic in the Wutong County cultivator market has also changed a long time ago.

The latest new topic is related to the Zhu family.

The first to start this topic is the cultivator market closest to the Zhu family.

"Have you heard? The Zhu family wiped out the Wang family!"

In Wutong County, basically every few years there is news of the destruction of Qi-refining immortal families, either destroyed by robbery cultivators, or destroyed by other Qi-refining immortal families. The latter is more common. Robbery cultivators are more likely to rob immortal families, and then rob again after a few years.

The Qi-refining immortal families destroyed by robbery cultivators basically have conflicts with the leaders among robbery cultivators.

"Oh, the Wang family was destroyed. I remember that it seemed to be fifteen years ago that the Wang family was a little bit weak, and there were no cultivators with better talents after the family. It was normal for it to be destroyed by the now prosperous Zhu family. There were already some big conflicts between the two families."

"The Zhu family destroyed the Wang family... So the Zhu family is now the fourth immortal cultivation family in Wutong with two spiritual veins."

"No, the Zhu family gave the spiritual veins to the Xiangshui Li family." The cultivator who first talked about this topic had a lot of information.

"What? It was given to the Li family, a foundation-building immortal cultivation family from another county. Why? What does the Zhu family think?"

"I heard that the Zhu family wanted to become a subordinate force of the Li family, and this spiritual vein land was given to the Li family by the Zhu family." Then the cultivator continued, "I don't know if the news is accurate. We will know this later."

"Ah! It can be like this... In my opinion, the Zhu family does not seem to be a family willing to become a subordinate force of other foundation-building forces."

"What's the use in your opinion? Maybe the Zhu family doesn't like the four foundation-building immortal cultivation families in our Wutong County, and then they like the Li family. The Li family is the overlord of Xiangshui County after all, and there are many foundation-building immortal cultivation families in the family. The foundation-building immortal cultivation families in our Wutong County, if they take out two of them together, are not the opponents of the Li family."

The chat between the cultivators in the store has ignored the words of the cultivator who started the topic, and they all took the news seriously.

"…Hearing what you said, I think the reason why the Zhu family gave the spiritual vein land to the Li family and became a subordinate force of the Li family is only possible because of this."

"How is it possible?"

"I think in order to avoid being eliminated by the Zhu family, the Wang family turned to a foundation-building immortal cultivation family and sought refuge. The Zhu family can only use this method to eliminate the Wang family."

"Yes, it is very likely."

This kind of thing has often happened in history, but the weak immortal cultivation family will still be eliminated.

Unless the weak immortal cultivation family has a strong backer from the beginning, and the backer has a good reputation, it is very likely that this force will choose a stronger younger brother and eliminate the other one.
