Chapter 1954

~7 min read 1,326 words

Boom—

A silver colossal warship flew out from the Long clan, slowly ascending into the void, then flew toward the outside of the city.

Then the second, the third, the fourth...

In one breath, twenty ships flew out.

According to regulations, no one is allowed to fly within the city, but the Long clan is an exception, because the Long clan's Ancestor is simultaneously the Vice City Lord of Tianfeng City.

The Long clan possesses this qualification.

It is not a violation of regulations, but rather they indeed possess the qualification to fly within the city.

This qualification was bestowed by the City Lord's Mansion.

"Heavens... so many gunboats?"

"Hiss hiss hiss... what happened to the Long clan?"

"Is this going to war with some clan?"

"Impossible, the Long clan's Ancestor is already the Vice City Lord of Tianfeng City, who else would they want to war with, the City Lord's Mansion?"

"Stop talking nonsense!"

In Tianfeng City, countless people raised their heads, watching the Long clan's gunboats fly away in a grand and imposing manner.

At this moment, the Long clan's Ancestor Long Zhidu sat on the foremost first gunboat, and behind him were four people.

Three women, one man!

These were all the Long clan's Divine Lord realm elders.

"Ancestor, you must act cautiously..." one female elder advised: "The several waves of disciples I sent out obtained no useful information at all from the He clan!"

"This He clan is definitely deeply hidden and unfathomable!"

"This seat naturally knows!" The Ancestor nodded, face solemn: "Alright... now all of you speak your guesses, what do you think is actually going on with this He clan?"

His gaze swept across everyone.

The other several elders all shook their heads, indicating they could not see through it.

"This old man does have a guess!" The Long clan Ancestor said: "These past few days I have also thought left and right, and feel there is only one possibility!"

Everyone cupped fists: "Please Ancestor instruct!"

The Ancestor said: "Think about it... since the He clan has already controlled our people, why didn't they kill them?"

"Not only did they not kill them, but they also seem unable to take them as slaves!"

"You guess just why that is?"

Someone frowned, saying: "Could it be they are fishing for us to go over?"

"No no no..." The Ancestor waved his hand: "If they wanted to lure us over, they could just directly behead them, no need to go to such lengths!"

"This old man guesses, it's not that they don't want to behead or take them, but rather, they lack the ability!"

"No ability?" Everyone was somewhat puzzled.

The Ancestor explained: "This old man thought for a long time, and feels there is only one possibility, that is, their He clan is proficient in formations!"

"Someone was able to set up a high-level trapping formation, they trapped our clan's two Divine Lord realm elders and Old Seventeen together inside a trapping formation!"

"Only this can explain it!"

"Otherwise, no matter what, it cannot be explained!"

Everyone nodded one by one.

One must say, the Ancestor's analysis is still very probable.

The Tianze Mountain where the He clan is located is not too far from Tianfeng City.

At the Long clan's speed, two days and they would arrive.

After arriving at Tianze Mountain, the Long clan did not immediately go find the He clan, but instead summoned the Lu clan, the local major clan on this side of Tianze Mountain.

The Lu clan is also a major clan, the clan head is Divine Lord realm.

Of course, the Lu clan only has this one Divine Lord realm.

"Lu Tianci, pays respects to Vice City Lord Long!" When Lu Tianci came, he also brought a person: the Lu clan's Fourteenth Elder Lu Jianwo.

"Fellow Daoist Lu... come come come, please inside!"

Long Zhidu invited Lu Tianci into the great hall of the large ship.

Several people filed in, then sat down according to host and guest positions.

Long Zhidu said: "Fellow Daoist Lu, now that we have come here, presumably you also know the reason?"

"Yes!" Lu Tianci cupped fists: "The Long clan previously already sent word to me, the ins and outs, I also know a thing or two!"

"It is just very regrettable, regarding the He clan's situation, I am also completely in the dark!"

The He clan hides very deeply.

Especially He Pingsheng's maid Yusi, basically no one outside knows her situation.

After the Lu clan received the Long clan's information, they still thought they had misheard, later after several rounds of investigation, they still could not investigate any useful information.

From then on, as the local power, the Lu clan also began to be wary.

"This person is our Lu clan's Elder Lu Jianwo, he has dealt with the He clan's people several times, if there are any questions, Vice City Lord you ask him, but what he knows is also extremely limited!"

"Hmm..." Long Zhidu looked at Lu Jianwo, saying: "Young friend Lu don't worry, this seat also just wants to understand some circumstances, tell me everything you know!"

"Alright!" Lu Jianwo briefly described the situation of his first negotiation with He Pingsheng and the others.

Actually there wasn't too much useful information.

"Senior, this is all I know!"

"But one thing is certain, these several He clan elders are all shrewd and capable characters, not a single one is ordinary!"

"Oh!" The Ancestor asked: "Then... do you know if the He clan's elders are proficient in formations?"

Lu Jianwo saw me shake my head: "This, I actually don't know!"

"Never mind!" Long Zhidu nodded: "Right now the enemy and our situation is unclear, we also dare not rashly enter the He family!"

"How about this, Young Friend Lu, would you be willing to go to the He family on our behalf, invite the He family's people over, I want to talk with them!"

"This..." Lu Jianwo hesitated slightly, but in the end, he still agreed.

……

Half a day later, the He family's people came.

A total of three people came!

He Pingsheng, Old Cao!

And also Yu Si.

This time Yu Si concealed her cultivation, only revealing the second layer of the Divine Spirit realm.

"Fellow Daoist He... please... right up ahead!"

He Pingsheng saw twenty massive cannon ships lined up in a row in the void, imposing and awe-inspiring, brimming with killing intent.

The three followed Lu Jianwo and landed on that first divine ship, then entered the main hall.

The atmosphere in the main hall was very oppressive.

Seated at the head was Long Zhidu, accompanying him were the Long family's four Divine Lord realm elders, and also the Lu family head Lu Tianci.

"You are the He family head?" Long Zhidu asked He Pingsheng in a stern tone.

He Pingsheng sneered: "Don't know if you're asking politely, or interrogating?"

Long Zhidu's brows furrowed, but then immediately relaxed, saying: "It was this old man's unintentional act, you three... please sit..."

He Pingsheng sat down.

Long Zhidu asked: "Family Head He, are our Long family's two Divine Lord realm elders, and one Divine Spirit realm disciple, all trapped in the He family by you?"

He Pingsheng said: "Indeed there is this matter!"

Although everyone had long since determined it in their hearts, at this moment hearing He Pingsheng personally admit it, they still felt a shock in their hearts: Good fellow, it really is him!

A two-star family, how did they do it?

"Good..." Long Zhidu said: "Since it's like this, please give our Long family an explanation, Family Head He!"

He Pingsheng sneered: "Why should I give you an explanation?"

"What kind of explanation do you want?"

"Instead it's Vice City Lord Long, today leading twenty cannon ships coming aggressively, if you don't give this He a reasonable explanation... this He doesn't mind, wiping out all of you present in one fell swoop!"
