Chapter 44

"You..." Sun Bukong's face almost turned the color of pig liver.

He wanted to retort, but he really couldn't beat Heng Xian, and didn't even have the confidence to take one move.

"Alright!" Sun Heshan signaled everyone to sit down, then said faintly to Heng Xian: "Grandson Xian just now was full of foul language, which is quite rude!"

Heng Xian chuckled: "It was a last resort. A person as magnanimous as Elder Sun surely won't mind!"

Sun Heshan wanted to insult him back, but felt it was meaningless to be as knowledgeable as a child, so he shook his head: "Let's get straight to the point, speak if you have something!"

Heng Xian flicked his sleeves, looking like it was a matter of course: "I came this time to set the wedding date for my cousin and the Sun family young lady."

As he spoke, he took out a few bottles of Yuan-Returning Pills from his pocket: "A small gift, not a token of my respect!"

"Pfft..." Sun Bukong and the group laughed out loud.

Sun Heshan picked up the tea: "Come, see the guests out!"

"Please, Young Master Heng!" An elder stepped forward.

Heng Xian blinked: "Is this the Sun family's way of treating guests? Centuries of family friendship, and you're kicking people out directly?"

A Sun family elder said coldly: "You two half-grown children brought a few bottles of Yuan-Returning Pills to set a wedding date? Do you think this is playing house?"

Heng Xian flicked his sleeves: "Although I am young, I have Condensing Qi cultivation, manage all the property of the Heng family, and I have the final say in most matters of the Heng family.

My coming is the greatest sincerity of the Heng family!

As for the amount of gifts, why should the Sun family mind? Later I will send you a few boxes of awesome pills!"

A group of Sun family elders looked at each other, and Sun Bukong said: "You have a point, but your Heng family is currently in this state.

We also need to protect ourselves, so please go back!"

Heng Xian was surprised: "What happened to our Heng family?"

Sun Bukong was also surprised: "Do you really need me to say it clearly? The nine families destroying the Heng family is already the general trend!"

Heng Xian glanced at Heng Chong.

Heng Chong immediately blinked blankly: "We didn't take the nine families seriously at all, my third uncle is coming back soon!"

Still quite good at acting.

"Your third uncle?" The Sun family elders were very surprised, "Heng Xiaotian, the third old Heng? What can that guy do even if he comes back?"

Heng Chong said: "My third uncle just broke through to the Qi Sea Realm!"

"What?!" A group of Sun family elders stood up one after another.

Sun Heshan was also stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Your gimmick is not good, your third uncle's aptitude is notoriously bad in the whole city!"

Heng Xian smiled: "But my third uncle is charming. He became the face-man of a Yuan Dan female cultivator outside, and broke through to the Qi Sea by chance.

Besides, who can say for sure about fate opportunities in the world?"

"Oh?" Sun Heshan looked at Heng Xian coldly.

Heng Xian looked at him calmly.

In my previous life, I stayed up all night without blinking, am I afraid of staring?

Sure enough, after a while, Sun Heshan rubbed his old eyes and gave up.

He saw full integrity in Heng Xian's eyes and really couldn't tell if Heng Xian and the other were telling the truth or not. Things like fate opportunities are indeed very mysterious sometimes.

Heng Xian said again: "In addition to marrying into the Sun family, the Heng family is also willing to form an alliance with the Sun family!

First, when the lips are gone, the teeth are cold; supporting each other, we won't be swallowed by the nine major families!

Second, after my third uncle comes back and kills the nine major families, the Heng and Sun families can sit down and divide the wealth!

No matter how you calculate it, it is all beneficial and harmless to the Sun family!"

Sun Heshan was an old fox, and shook his head: "Let's forget about the alliance, our Sun family has no intention of being enemies with the nine families!"

"Got guts!" Heng Xian seemed to have lost patience and gave a thumbs up, "The Sun family is indeed transcendent, the only one in the city. Cousin, let's go. Forming an alliance with this short-sighted family is a waste of you!"

Heng Chong nodded solemnly: "Hmm!"

The two turned and left.

"The only one in the city?" Sun Heshan was surprised, "What does Grandson Xian mean by this?"

Heng Xian turned his head: "The nine major families of Ye, Xiao, and Li have formed an alliance!

We have also formed an alliance with the other seven small families!

Now the Sun family is the only one left in the city! I figured that the two families have a marriage contract, and the Sun family had a feud with the City Lord's Mansion two hundred years ago, so it's impossible to join them.

It's impossible to watch you Sun family be pitiful and alone, right?

So, I disguised myself and took the risk to come out and talk to you about the alliance. To show my sincerity, I even brought my cousin to marry into your family, but I didn't expect..."

He pulled Heng Chong and left, with no intention of looking back.

Sun Heshan and the group of elders looked at each other: "Grandson Xian, wait!"

Heng Xian stopped: "Something up?"

Sun Heshan hesitated for a moment: "If the other seven small families form an alliance with the Heng clan, my Sun family will definitely not stay out of it, and will follow the Heng family's orders!

In addition, the wedding date for Heng Chong and Sun Xiaodie will be set after the New Year!"

Heng Xian chuckled: "Those who know the times are heroes. Elder Sun is particular and can see the big picture. The Sun clan will surely flourish!"

Being flattered, Sun Heshan's face looked much better, and he waved his hand: "Go get the marriage contract!"

Someone went out and soon brought Sun Xiaodie's marriage contract.

The two families exchanged them.

Heng Xian gave a few more instructions and left gracefully with Heng Chong.

Watching the direction the Heng brothers left, the group of Sun family members remained silent.

Sun Bukong endured and endured, but still couldn't help it: "Grandfather, I always feel this guy is fooling us!"

Sun Heshan said meaningfully: "We have no choice, might as well bet on his Heng Xian's luck!"

"Bet on him?" The group of elders and Sun Bukong were all shocked.

Sun Heshan sighed: "This old man has lived for nearly eighty years and has read countless people in his life, but this is the first time I've seen a little brat like Heng Xian!

Only fifteen years old, Condensing Qi cultivation, brilliant in combat, good at writing poetry, good at refining pills, good at lobbying, neither humble nor arrogant, clear logic, and setting traps for others!

He is truly a talent. Given time, this person will either become a hegemon or be killed by some great power!

It's just that small families like Ye, Xiao, and Li in Donglan City want to kill him, I'm afraid their luck isn't enough!

This old man will say it here, you just wait and see!"

The fifth day of the rumors of the nine major families destroying the Heng family.

A piece of news was earth-shattering, shocking everyone in the city:

The Heng family, Sun family, Liu family, Pi family, Gong family, and other nine major families have also formed an alliance.

Swearing to defend Donglan City to the death!

What does swearing to defend to the death mean? Anyone who isn't a fool understands that the Heng and Sun nine-family alliance is going to fight the Ye, Xiao, and Li nine major families head-on!

Originally nine against one, it was an annihilation battle!

Now nine against nine, it has become a big melee!

This is going to explode, my god!

The loose cultivators and ordinary people in the city fled even more frantically!

City Lord's Mansion.

Discussion Hall.

The City Lord, Xiao Nantian, Li Ruhai, Xue Zhengnian, and other major elders of the nine families gathered together, all with gloomy faces.

Xue Zhengnian scolded: "How the hell did the Heng family also come up with a nine-family alliance?!"

Xiao Feng also said: "The Sun family has always been neutral, and those seven families are also timid as mice. How did they form an alliance with the Heng family to fight us?"

"What is this? I don't understand!"

Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes and said: "Is it a fake message spread by the Heng family?"

Li Ruhai shook his head: "We have already sent people to investigate, the attitude of those eight families including the Sun family is indeed ambiguous! At least they didn't clearly say it had nothing to do with the Heng family!"

Xue Zhengnian said: "This is a bit disgusting!"

Ye Xuan said: "It doesn't matter! Our strength is still stronger than theirs, who is afraid of whom?"

Xiao Nantian said faintly: "Surrounding and killing the Heng family is called seizing resources, a nine-against-nine melee is called fighting for your life, hurting the enemy by a thousand and losing eight hundred, it's not worth the loss, nephew!"

Ye Xuan was speechless.

Xue Zhengnian said: "The key is, why would families like the Sun family agree to form an alliance with the Heng family? This is not their style!"

The City Lord, who had been silent, said: "According to reliable information, the Heng family exposed that Heng Xiaotian, the third old Heng, has broken through to the Qi Sea Realm!"

"What?!" A group of elders from the nine families stood up in unison, their faces turning pale with fright.

Li Ruhai shook his head: "Of course! This is just what the Heng family said themselves. Everyone knows that idiot, the third old Heng!"

The group of elders breathed a sigh of relief, but still held half a breath. What if, just in case?

City Lord Ye Baili tapped the table and said: "Slow down the attack, first send people to find the third old Heng and see his depth.

During this time, try to disintegrate the Heng and Sun nine-family alliance!"

"Yes!"

For thirteen consecutive days.

The situation in Donglan City was unpredictable.

Today the Ye, Xiao, and Li nine-family alliance said: "Annihilate all ambitious families!"

Tomorrow the Heng and Sun nine-family alliance said: "Our nine major families work together, not afraid of any invading enemies!"

Anyway, you say a few words to posture, and I say a few words to shake my power.

Later, when they got anxious, they started tearing each other apart:

"You are just a bunch of stinky idiots!"

"You are just a bunch of rotten families!"

"The wife of the thirteenth ancestor of the Ye family had an affair with our Heng family ancestor, bah, shameless!"

"The twelfth generation direct young lady of the Heng family ran away with our Xiao family elder, wahahaha..."

Hiss! The scale is so large, it's scary!

The afternoon of the thirteenth day.

Heng Xian, dressed in brocade, walked out of the front door swaggeringly, heading to the "Pill Refining Alliance".

There is a conventional rule in the cultivation world that no matter how much hatred two sects or families have,

when fighting, their members or disciples who have the status of "Pill Refining Alliance" or "Artifact Refining Alliance" are forbidden to be killed!

Otherwise, they will face the blacklist and endless pursuit of the "Pill Refining Alliance" or "Artifact Refining Alliance".

Heng Xian prepared to get a dual identity as a "Pill Refiner" and "Artifact Refiner" to be prepared!
