Seeing this, everyone’s gaze turned to the few people of the Huang family located in the center of the banquet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Huang Shengxin opened the sound-transmission talisman, his face changed instantly, and he said to Lu Yuanfeng, who had already stood beside him, \"Fellow Daoist Lu, news from Qinghe Market says that a large number of bandit cultivators are attacking the market.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What? Fellow Daoist Huang, you aren't mistaken, are you? Someone is actually attacking Qinghe Market!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this news from Huang Shengxin, everyone present stood up one after another, revealing a shocked look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Qinghe Market was first established, because the overall strength of Qinghe County was relatively weak and the defensive strength was not strong, it was often targeted by surrounding bandit cultivator forces. Several times, the entire market was broken by others, not only were property robbed, but each family also lost quite a few cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, with the overall strength of Qinghe County becoming stronger and stronger, and the Carefree Sect starting to attach importance to the experience of the market in the northeast, they sent Foundation Establishment cultivators to help sit in charge, and Qinghe Market finally stabilized. Especially in the last hundred years, although someone would occasionally make trouble in and around the market, everyone had never seen anyone dare to attack Qinghe Market so blatantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only Qinghe Market, but many markets around the northeast corner of the Wei Kingdom were the same. This place was adjacent to the Zheng Kingdom in the east, and the Zheng Kingdom was a country that often had turmoil. Every time the two major sects of the Zheng Kingdom fought internally, many cultivators would escape to the Wei Kingdom to avoid the turmoil. After these cultivators came over, they were not welcomed by the local cultivators of the Wei Kingdom, so they could not get many cultivation resources. Slowly, many people gathered together to become bandit cultivators in order to grab cultivation resources and engaged in the business of robbery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among these people, not only were there cultivators who had fallen into trouble from the Zheng Kingdom, but there were also many local people in the Wei Kingdom who had committed crimes and had crooked hearts who had fled here to avoid disaster. The Eagle Nest Ridge that Song Qingming and others went to clear a few years ago was a group of such bandit cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These people were all desperate people who only looked at immediate interests. Even if they knew that the Carefree Sect had a large share in Qinghe Market, as long as they could grab it, they would not retreat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that Qinghe Market had been attacked, Song Qingming immediately couldn't sit still. Lu Yuanfeng was not in Qinghe Market now, and only Song Qingyu, who had just established her Foundation, was left in the market. Once the market was broken, facing those cruel bandit cultivators, Song Qingyu’s safety made him have to frown, and his heart was already extremely anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he was not the only one who was anxious. Qinghe Market involved the interests of almost all cultivation families in Qinghe County. Once the market was broken, the loss would be immeasurable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone! It seems that this banquet cannot continue today. Everyone, follow Fellow Daoist Lu and go directly to Qinghe Market! I hope we are still in time.\" After the few cultivators at the scene discussed, they only left Huang Sipo, who had just established his Foundation, to gather the nearby Qi Refining cultivators. The six Foundation Establishment cultivators, including Song Qingming, set off immediately to support the market.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taiyuan Mountain was more than eight hundred miles away from Qinghe Market. Even if Foundation Establishment cultivators rushed at full speed, it would take at least two hours. It was a pity that none of the few people present had magic artifacts like flying boats that could increase the speed of the journey, otherwise, they could greatly speed up the journey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Accompanied by several loud noises, Qinghe Market’s mountain-protecting formation began to shake again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone, increase your efforts to attack the east side of the market. The brothers who infiltrated have destroyed the formation veins there. The formation won't last long.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Yilong was the boss of the Eagle Nest Ridge bandit cultivators. In order to successfully take down Qinghe Market this time, he also specifically found a group of bandit cultivators nearby to help. This time, their two families sent a total of three Foundation Establishment and more than a hundred relatively elite Qi Refining cultivators, just intending to take advantage of Lu Yuanfeng’s absence to break Qinghe Market in one fell swoop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After he unified Eagle Nest Ridge, his actions had always been relatively cautious. Cheng Yilong also knew that attacking the market so blatantly would inevitably lead to the revenge of Qinghe County and the Carefree Sect in the future. The reason he took the risk this time was also to grab a sum and then go to raise resources for his own Core formation in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These bandit cultivators under his command were all vicious people. Sometimes, for a little cultivation resource, they wouldn't even let go of their own people. As long as they could successfully break the market’s mountain-protecting formation, the remaining defensive forces in the market would naturally not be the opponents of these people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the entire Qinghe Market, besides Song Qingyu, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, there were more than forty law enforcement team cultivators guarding the market who were relatively combat-capable. The remaining cultivators in each shop, except for the dozen or so Qi Refining late-stage cultivators with higher cultivation, were mostly people with poor Dao paths sent by their families to do business in the market.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were long out of practice, and their spell-casting ability was basically hard to beat cultivators of the same level, let alone the cruel bandit cultivators outside. As long as the market formation was broken, these people would likely scatter like birds and beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was not the most fatal. Now the biggest gap between the two sides was the Foundation Establishment cultivators who decided the power. The other side had three Foundation Establishment cultivators, and each of them was not lower than her in cultivation. Once the mountain-protecting formation was broken, relying on her alone would certainly not be able to contain all the Foundation Establishment cultivators on the other side. Once they were free, the Qi Refining cultivators in the market would certainly be defeated at the first touch when facing a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and at that time, they would only be left with the fate of being slaughtered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Qingyu, the other side is concentrating their strength to attack the east side where the formation veins are damaged. It is estimated that the formation won't last long. We still have to think of a countermeasure quickly to see how we can hold on until Senior Lu and the others arrive to support.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the mountain-protecting formation, Second Sister Song Qingwan, who had a worried face, looked at the bandit cultivators outside attacking more and more fiercely, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the mountain-protecting formation was started in time, because of the destruction by the inside agents, there were still two places where the formation veins were seriously damaged, and the bandit cultivators outside the formation obviously noticed this and began to attack the weak points of the formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Send someone to take out all the spirit stones in the market’s inventory. Tell Thirteenth Uncle to send all the gathered cultivators to the east side. No matter what, we must hold on first. Anyone who participates in this defense will be given ten spirit stones each on the spot.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, although Song Qingyu was actually very panicked in her heart, she was also facing such a dangerous situation for the first time, but she still appeared relatively calm on the surface. As the only Foundation Establishment cultivator in the market, Song Qingyu knew that she was the backbone of the entire Qinghe Market at this moment. Once she showed a trace of panic, the cultivators below would probably soon become chaotic.\u003C\u002Fp>",1436,"2026-06-14T03:09:35.509Z","2026-06-18T03:34:23.509Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","0644d38d29f232881f1406dc7d0b8a602ca7de809e11524ca7780902d7065b15","the-song-clan-of-qinghe-chapter-280","the-song-clan-of-qinghe-chapter-278",846,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-qinghe-song-clan-cover.jpg"]
