Family Cultivation: My entire family are Villains-Chapter 547 - 256, Only a fool would accompany you to die (swallowed a chapter)

"Wangchuan Road City spans a hundred li square and, under the old system of Great Yu, ranks just below a state city. It governs three prefectures and fourteen counties, situated between Jiuhua Dao and Linjiang Path,"

"Its dominating force, the Saint Heavenly Fist Sect, ranks second only to the celestial-grade Chu Family among the four major powers of the Jiangbei Alliance. There are rumors that Zhuang Feicheng, the Sect Master of the Saint Heavenly Fist Sect and known as the Thundering Saint, is no weaker than Chu Kuangren. He has long intended to replace him and become the Leader of the Jiangbei Alliance, but unfortunately, the Chu family is powerful and reputable, continuously supported by Divine Sword Mountain Villa and Giant Abyss Gang, thus Zhuang Feicheng has never succeeded over the years."

"Zhuang Feicheng has always wanted to split the Jiangbei Alliance, but sadly, with high ambition and poor tactics, failing to win over Divine Sword Mountain Villa and Giant Abyss Gang, it's only normal for him to be suppressed by Chu Kuangren. Recently, he even teamed up with Great Jin to attack Jiuhua Dao and was almost expelled from the Jiangbei Alliance. I heard that the Giant Abyss Gang is amassing an army, ready to strike."

"Teaming up with Great Jin to attack Jiuhua Dao... does that mean Zhuang Feicheng is not in the city right now?"

"Zhuang Feicheng is currently leading an army of a million from the Saint Heavenly Fist Sect, stationed to the south of Jiuhua Dao. If not for Chu Kuangren meddling, worried that Giant Abyss Gang might seize the chance to attack his base, he would have already joined forces with Great Jin and charged in. The three individuals in the city must be the Heavenly Fist Elders; with their combined strength, exceptionally powerful, no less than a shattered-realm capable force. With these three watching over, Zhuang Feicheng dares to lead the army out."

Ten miles north of Wangchuan Road City, eight people in black were floating mid-air, the leader still being the old man who had spoken with Zhan Taiqing previously. Notably, the one closest to him wasn't any of the other six Qiányáng realm masters but the still angrily masked Zhao Ponu.

Hearing everyone's discussion, Zhao Ponu said chillingly, "Since that's the case, let's just go in and search; let those three old men cooperate, dig three feet into the ground if we must, but we need to find that bastard. Wangchuan Road City is currently locked down, and they are injured too, they can't get away!"

The six, upon hearing this, did not speak but turned their gazes towards the old man at the front, clearly indicating that their action was not led by Zhao Ponu but decided by the elder.

The old man turned around, glanced at Zhao Ponu, and with his discerning eyes, could see his current anger. After pondering, he spoke deeply, "Four of the seven holy lands have already been visited, Sikong Xingzhou although convinced, Zhan Taiqing holds significant influence in the Rakshasa Holy Sect, both Huangfu Xing and Duanmu Hong are her loyal

"As you said, that Hou Yuxiao, to advance from the body-opening realm to Great Grandmaster of the Fourth Realm in five years, truly his talent is remarkable. If we don't eliminate him early, he will definitely become a disaster. Today, no matter what, he cannot escape."

Zhao Ponu didn't speak, his face under the mask now dark as if blood was about to drip. He hadn't recognized Hou Yuxiao during their earlier fight, but during the subsequent pursuit, he slowly realized it.

Following Zhan Taiqing over from Hedong, wielding a staff, bearing such animosity towards him, there was only one person, that was Hou Yuxiao. Connecting this to Hou Yuxiao's nickname, Thousand-Faced Handsome Man, he immediately understood.

That elder, was certainly Hou Yuxiao in disguise.

"Thousand-Faced Handsome Man Hou Yuxiao, who shone brightly last year in Hedong, is just him, isn't he? Now at his peak, not yet thirty with the cultivation of a Great Grandmaster of the Fourth Realm, having personally killed a disciple of Master Yuan Kong from Leiyin Temple, the celestial-grade Great Grandmaster Ding Buhai. I heard that Great Jin's Feng Yun Pavilion will soon place him in the top ten of the New Star Ranking!"

"I've heard, too, the Hou Clan of Hexi, previously just a minor family, now owns four counties, all thanks to this Hou Yuxiao and his brother Hou Yuduan. That Hou Yuduan, seems to also have a nickname, ranking close to him on the New Star Ranking..."

"Zhaoyang Sorcerer!"

"Right, right."

...

Hearing the discussion of the six behind him, Zhao Ponu's mind surfaced memories from five years ago, Hou Yuxiao who was then like an ant in front of him, unexpectedly revealed such strong strength just now, his eyes suddenly turning even colder.

"Let's first pay a visit to the Heavenly Fist Elders, we'll reveal our identities, and they dare not decline!"

As the old man's voice fell, he led the seven towards the city.

As the eight approached the city's skies, immediately three auras equivalent to theirs surged from the city center, heading towards them—clearly, the Heavenly Fist Elders had sensed them too.

...…

New Yu Era 1324, early December 10th

Wangchuan Road City, North City District.

Headquarters of Yunding Gang, several people are chatting together.

"It's been half a month; how long does the Fist Sect plan to keep the lockdown? They had mentioned because of concerns about spies during the great battle in the Capital Region Path; it was semi-locked down already. Now it's a complete city ban without any explanation, how long will this last? Aren't they afraid this will cause public outrage?"

"Hehe, those words are fine here, just make sure not to let the disciples of the Fist Sect hear them. What public outrage? The world is already chaotic, with dislocated people everywhere. Without the protection of the Fist Sect, folks like us would be cannon fodder in moments."

"That's true, I used to feel uneasy whenever I saw refugees to the north of the city. Now that the city gates are locked and I can't see the refugees, funny enough, I feel a lot better."

"I'm not badmouthing the Fist Sect, but surely there should be a reason. They start searching every household without explanation, and the search has gone on for more than half a month. Our places have been turned upside down; those searching Fist Sect disciples look ferocious. Without handing over tens of thousands of taels of silver, you simply can't send them away. What is this if not an opportunity to gather wealth under the guise of searching for someone?"
