Chapter 108: Grandparents and Grandchildren of the Xiao Family, Nine Changes of the Gale
After Ye Changsheng and the other ten people had agreed on the plan, they called the head of the Xiao family over and informed him of the plan.
When hearing that this plan might cause heavy losses to the Xiao family, Patriarch Xiao's face suddenly changed.
"My fellow Taoists, this..."
He looked embarrassed.
"Brother Xiao, this is the safest way. If you don't agree, then we will turn around and leave, and the Xiao family will be completely massacred by the evil forces!" Ming Tianrui said coldly.
"Clan leader Xiao, I hope you can distinguish clearly what is more important than what is less important!" Senior Brother Zhao said calmly with a gloomy face.
Patriarch Xiao looked at the ten people in front of him, sighed helplessly, and said: "I understand, I hope you can protect as many of my people as possible. Our Xiao family is loyal to the seven sects!"
"Don't worry about this. You can select some core members of the tribe and send them here. We will not let the war affect them!" said Senior Brother Zhao.
Chief Xiao agreed immediately and left in a hurry to select his clan members.
"I hope those evil monks will go to the market first to give that monk from Huangfeng Valley a hard time. Don't come straight to our Xiao family!" Patriarch Xiao muttered to himself.
"Everyone, the purpose of our battle this time is not to annihilate all ten demon monks, but to kill as many of them as possible!"
"Even if we kill one person, their combined attack technique will be broken. Without the combined attack technique, they will not dare to stay in Yue State any longer. In this way, our mission will be accomplished!"
Ming Tianrui's words made Senior Brother Zhao and others nod their heads repeatedly.
From the very beginning, they had never thought of killing all the demon monks.
Because the other side also has ten people, including a fake elixir cultivator, and they are all quite powerful.
If we want to kill them all, how many of our people will die?
There is always a price to pay, and no one wants to be that price.
Therefore, from the very beginning, all they wanted was to drive these evil monks away!
There are only a few who hate evil, like Liu Jing, who only want to kill all the evil monks.
After everything was arranged, Han Li went alone to the market town more than 20 miles away.
Ye Changsheng also walked towards the ambush site.
The Xiao family, a family of immortal cultivators, is like most of the immortal cultivator families Ye Changsheng had seen before, divided into two layers: the inner and outer layers.
The inner layer is where monks gather, and the outer layer is for mortals.
When Ye Changsheng passed the area where mortals lived, he suddenly stopped, his eyes fixed, and looked towards an alley.
"Grandpa, why are we leaving in such a hurry?"
"Silly girl, you don't understand. I just saw the old clan leader call some core clan members over, saying that he wanted to discuss important matters. This is most likely the demon monks are coming!"
"Ah? Is it the demon cultivator who massacred many immortal cultivation families as rumored?"
"Who else could it be if not them? So, run quickly and leave this Xiao family!"
…
The two people who were talking were an old man and a young girl. The old man looked to be in his sixties or seventies, with white hair, while the little girl he was holding looked to be only about ten years old.
She is as pretty as a fairy.
The old man and the little girl were both monks, but at this moment, there was no trace of the monk's aura on them, all of it was hidden.
If Ye Changsheng was not a foundation-building cultivator, he would definitely not be able to discover their true cultivation levels.
"Are these two people... the grandparents and grandchildren of the Xiao family?" Ye Changsheng looked at the two figures from behind, with a look of reminiscence on his face.
"It seems that in the original book, this grandfather and grandson are indeed from the Xiao family of Fenghejian, and they have mastered an unknown ancient book!"
"Ancient books record the demon race's Nine Changes of Gale, and also a magical nameless formula for concealing breath!"
Ye Changsheng recalled the description of this unnamed breath-suppressing mantra in the original book.
It is possible to make cultivators of the same level unable to tell the depth of one’s cultivation.
He was moved and followed immediately.
"Grandpa, are we leaving the Xiao family like this? I'm a little... reluctant!"
"How foolish! No matter how reluctant you are, your life is more important than anything else. Go quickly! You can't stay for a moment!" The old man scolded the little girl while pulling her forward quickly.
"Where are you going?"
A voice suddenly sounded, and Old Man Xiao was immediately startled. He looked at the young man who suddenly appeared in front of him with horror.
After feeling the other person's energy, his heart suddenly sank.
Foundation-building monk!
How could a foundation-building cultivator suddenly appear here out of nowhere?
Could it be that the evil monk has arrived?
Old man Xiao was so frightened that his soul flew out of his body. He quickly pulled the little girl behind him, bowed his head, and said in a trembling voice: "This humble man Xiao Zhen greets the senior!"
"Xiao Zhen, I just saw you use your breath-concealing technique quite well!" Ye Changsheng said calmly.
He didn't waste any words and went straight to the point, expressing his interest in the breath-containment technique.
"Senior, are you a disciple of Huangfeng Valley?" Xiao Zhen looked carefully at Ye Changsheng's clothes and suddenly asked.
"Yes, I won't hide it from you. I am a cultivator from Huangfeng Valley. I am interested in your Breath-Concealing Technique. Name your price!" Ye Changsheng said calmly.
After hearing what Ye Changsheng said, the tension in Old Man Xiao's heart slowly eased and he looked a little more relaxed.
I just hope he’s not a demon monk.
Disciples of the Yellow Maple Valley...
Thinking of Ye Changsheng's identity, his mind began to become active.
"To be honest with you, senior, I actually got this breath-concealing technique from an ancient animal-skin book. If you want it, I will just give it to you. There's no need to negotiate the price!" Old Man Xiao said with a flattering smile on his face.
"What? Do you think I'm the kind of person who bullies the weak?" Ye Changsheng smiled faintly.
"If you don't want anything, then I will really take your skills for nothing!"
Hearing this, Old Man Xiao no longer dared to be polite, and quickly pulled the little girl behind him out, begging: "I have only one request, please accept my granddaughter as your apprentice!"
The pretty little girl turned pale with fright , but still looked at him firmly.
"What's her name!?"
"My daughter's name is Xiao Cui'er!"
Ye Changsheng stretched out his hand and checked Xiao Cui'er's spiritual roots, and found that she indeed had two spiritual roots.
"You have good qualifications, but I am not interested in taking you as my apprentice right now!"
Seeing that Old Man Xiao's face turned pale instantly, Ye Changsheng said calmly: "However, I can recommend a place for her!"
Taking out a letter, Ye Changsheng said, "You can take this to Yanyue Sect to find a Jindan cultivator named Nangong Wan."
Hearing the words "Jindan cultivator", Old Man Xiao was immediately overjoyed, thinking that Ye Changsheng wanted to recommend his granddaughter to become a Jindan cultivator.
But then, Ye Changsheng's next words were like a bucket of cold water, leaving him dumbfounded.
"If she is in a good mood, she might take this girl into the Yanyue Sect. If she is in a bad mood, it is normal for her to kill you and your grandchildren!"
"Senior, this..."
Seeing that Old Man Xiao and Xiao Cui'er looked frightened, Ye Changsheng smiled and said:
"I'm just trying to scare you. If you let your granddaughter deliver the letter, even if she's in a bad mood, the most she can do is kick you out!"
"Why, would you like to take a gamble?"
Old man Xiao showed a struggle and hesitation on his face.
"Grandpa, I do!" At this time, his granddaughter suddenly took the initiative to say.
"you……"
Old Man Xiao stared at Xiao Cui'er for a long time, and finally made up his mind and said, "Let's do as you said, grandparents, let's make a bet!"
"Okay, if she asks you who sent the letter, just say it was a young man named Ye. Then she will know the answer!"
After giving Old Man Xiao a few instructions, Ye Changsheng received an ancient animal skin scroll from him.
Afterwards, the grandfather and grandson were seen leaving the Xiao family's territory quickly.
Ye Changsheng put away the nameless mantra and continued to walk around.
"Just in case, we should make some preparations!" he murmured.
A few hours later, he left the Xiao family's territory and rushed to the ambush site.
