Chapter 661

"Supreme Elder, the Yunyang Sect has sent people here."

A few days after Su Hanyu and the others set out for the Huoyun Mountain Range, people from the Yunyang Sect arrived.

"Interesting!"

Hearing the report, Su Fan was indeed somewhat surprised.

"Bring them over."

Although he didn't know what the Yunyang Sect was planning, the Liuyun Mountain Range had already been built by the Su Family to be as solid as an iron bucket.

It was simply impossible for outsiders to destroy the Liuyun Mountain Range.

Of course, Su Fan didn't think that the Yunyang Sect would be so unwise as to openly destroy the Liuyun Mountain Range.

After all, the power of the Liuyun Mountain Range was not much worse than that of the Yunyang Sect.

If they really had a life-and-death struggle, the latter would definitely suffer serious damage.

Just as Su Fan was thinking about the purpose of the Yunyang Sect's visit, the family disciples had already brought the people from the Yunyang Sect over.

"Greetings, Senior Li."

Yun Tianlai looked at the young man on the main seat, took a deep breath, and bowed solemnly, not daring to have any negligence.

Even though he came from the Yunyang Sect and was a core disciple of the Yunyang Sect, he didn't dare to have any disrespect when facing a Golden Core cultivator, and an exceptionally mysterious Golden Core cultivator at that.

This person was a powerhouse who had single-handedly supported Lin Taihe to the Golden Core stage. Even the three Old Ancestors of the sect didn't know the other party's cultivation level.

Although the other party formed the core decades ago, logically speaking, no matter how fast they cultivated, they would at most have reached the third layer of the Golden Core.

It was the same as Old Ancestor Hua.

But an ordinary third-layer Golden Core cultivator supporting a Purple Mansion cultivator whose lifespan was nearly exhausted to break through to the Golden Core stage—this was something even their Yunyang Sect wouldn't dare to say they could definitely do.

Lin Taihe's foundation was indeed very deep, but he was too old. Wanting to break through was even worse than many young cultivators who had just entered the ninth layer of the Purple Mansion.

This is the cruelty of the immortal cultivation world, and it is also the experience summarized by countless cultivators: break through your cultivation level as early as possible; don't wait until your twilight years to break through, as the success rate will be even lower.

But even so, Lin Taihe still broke through.

It was all caused by this person in front of him.

And it is said that another outer sect elder of the Su Family was also supported by this person. They could not verify the authenticity of this news.

But the Yunyang Sect would carefully investigate and would not directly refute this news. Who knew if the other party had this ability?

"What is the purpose of your Yunyang Sect's visit this time?"

Su Fan didn't know the other party's thoughts. Looking at the seventh-layer Purple Mansion cultivator in front of him, he said in a calm tone.

Previously, the Yunyang Sect had completely withdrawn from the Liuyun Mountain Range.

"Senior Li, this junior is here on the orders of the sect to come to the Liuyun Mountain Range to assist."

Yun Tianlai said sonorously and forcefully.

"Oh! Assist!"

A playful smile appeared on the corner of Su Fan's mouth. In an instant, he had already understood the Yunyang Sect's plan.

This was because they saw that the Su Family could no longer be suppressed, so they changed their approach.

The Su Family had now grown to this point and could simply no longer be suppressed by the Yunyang Sect.

As for a head-on attack, that was even more impossible. A head-on attack would only lead to a lose-lose situation. He didn't believe the Yunyang Sect would be so muddled.

Since strong suppression wouldn't work, they could only take a roundabout way.

Wait for the Su Family to make a mistake.

And the Yunyang Sect sending people to Liuyun Mountain now was probably also for the entire Zheng State to see, letting people see that their Yunyang Sect was still as magnanimous as before.

Win back people's hearts!

"This step is not bad, but unfortunately, it's already too late."

Su Fan thought to himself. This step by the Yunyang Sect couldn't be said to be ineffective, but for the Su Family, it was of no use at all.

Even if the Yunyang Sect won back people's hearts, so what?

As long as the Su Family's strength is strong enough, and they pay a certain price, they can quickly win people's hearts over to their side.

In this world, only interests are the most reliable.

The Su Family can provide sufficient interests, and this is something the Yunyang Sect cannot do because the Su Family has Su Fan.

And in terms of future strength, the Su Family is also far more powerful than the Yunyang Sect.

The Su Family can continuously increase Golden Core cultivators, but the Yunyang Sect cannot. Now that the Yunyang Sect has three Golden Core cultivators, they have almost reached their peak.

If they want to cultivate another Golden Core cultivator, it is estimated that it will take several hundred years.

The Yunyang Sect's income is definitely much more than the Su Family's, but their annual expenditure is also far beyond the Su Family's.

The spirit stones needed to cultivate a peak Purple Mansion cultivator to form the core are no less than three million. Just one outer core alone costs a million.

And they are often priceless, only available in those major immortal cultivation nations, but you need channels.

After all, even those major forces rarely let these outer cores circulate.

Generally, they can only be obtained when major chambers of commerce hold large auctions.

So this outer core not only requires a large number of spirit stones but also requires timing.

It cannot be like the Su Family.

The Yunyang Sect also tries to let sect cultivators break through every few hundred years. If they can break through, that's best; if they can't, then they can only blame themselves. Generally, the sect will give you at most one chance.

It is impossible to support you all the time.

This is the disadvantage of the sect. Unless you have an Old Ancestor above you who pays out of their own pocket, but ordinary Golden Core Old Ancestors probably don't have this kind of wealth.

Su Fan knows the disadvantages of the Yunyang Sect very well. The Su Family can rapidly, or even explosively, increase their strength, which the Yunyang Sect can never do.

Moreover, within the Yunyang Sect, it is impossible for all forces to be united, while the Su Family is different. Whether it is the clan or outsiders, perhaps there will be a little competition in private, but not much.

With Su Fan stationed there, no one dares to act recklessly.

As for what it will be like in the future, that is not something he can consider.

He can support the rise of the Su Family, which can be considered worthy of this body of his.

"Since that's the case, then I, on behalf of the Su Family and all the humans in the Liuyun Mountain Range, thank the Yunyang Sect. You all must be tired after traveling so far."

"Qi Ying, take the guests down to rest."

Su Fan was not prepared to make things difficult for these people from the Yunyang Sect. The Yunyang Sect sent two Purple Mansion cultivators and over ten Foundation Establishment cultivators, which was also an effort.

However, if a great battle really breaks out, he will not let these people go to the battlefield.

Regardless of whether they are sincere or not, he still has to be on guard.

Of course, Su Fan is not afraid that these people will really cause any damage to Liuyun Mountain. With just these few people, what can they do?

It is just out of caution, and he also doesn't want these people to be accidentally injured by demon beasts, so as to avoid giving the Yunyang Sect any excuses.

Su Fan also doesn't want to put too much pressure on the Yunyang Sect. He wants to solve this problem peacefully and peacefully annex the Yunyang Sect.

He doesn't need force, so he cannot give the other party any excuses.

Of course, if the former really wants to find trouble with the Su Family, he doesn't mind killing three Golden Core Old Ancestors.

At that time, the Su Family will go and swallow the Yunyang Sect.

It's just that in this way, the power of the Yunyang Sect will be weakened after all.
