C119 To Quell the Rebellion

Since they knew that it was possible that this was a large crystal mine, they stopped mining because the reserves of large crystal mines were far from what Lu Qingfeng and the others could mine in a short period of time.

Besides, they couldn't possibly spend their time mining for crystals. If they headed north a short distance, they would reach Situ Xiaoyang's family clan soon. It would be more appropriate for them to assign this vein to the Situ Family.

Thinking of this, everyone moved together. Very quickly, the hole that Lu Qingfeng had created with the Blood Drinking Sword returned to its original state. They left a coordinates on the map and with everything done, everyone soared into the sky and headed towards the North Sea.

By noon, the five islands in the North Sea weren't far from where the Situ siblings were. Lu Qingfeng scanned the island with his divine sense and found that five islands had appeared one thousand miles away. These five islands were the largest, about three to four thousand miles in radius. Each of them had a small island in the north, south, east, and west. The size of these four islands added up together was about the same as the big island in the middle.

In addition, according to the information sent by Lu Qingfeng's Spiritual Sense, there were close to a thousand warships around the island. They had already surrounded the island, and there seemed to be a hostile atmosphere spreading out rapidly.

Lu Qingfeng told Situ Xiaoyang about what he had sensed with his divine sense. Situ Xiaoyang couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this, "Could it be that something happened to my grandfather? As long as nothing happened to my grandfather, the four families would not dare to act rashly."

Lu Qingfeng had some doubts in his heart. As he flew forward, he asked, "How is your grandfather's accident related to the other four great families?"

"It's like this," Situ Xiaoyang said, "When I was very young, my grandfather left the family and traveled around the world. Right now, my father and second uncle are the only ones in charge of the family, and they are both at the peak of the truth realm, similar to me right now. My grandfather is at the peak of the truth realm, and among the other four families, the strongest is at the peak of the truth realm.

After pausing for a moment, Situ Xiaoyang continued, "If they really are rebelling, then there's only one possibility, and that is that something went wrong with my grandpa while he was out there. This way, he would be able to suppress my family."

Lu Qingfeng said, "No matter what happened, we haven't started fighting so the situation can be easily controlled. Fortunately, we came back in time. Don't worry, Situ, with the seven of us, your family will be safe and sound."

While everyone was flying and chatting, the distance between them was already so close that it could be seen with the naked eye. Situ Xiaoyang had once introduced his family in detail.

It turned out that a long time ago, Situ Xiaoyang's ancestors and the ancestors of the other four clans shared the same surname. The five brothers worked together to manage the five islands in the North Sea.

Looking from the sky, the five islands were like a plum flower. The four petals surrounded the stamen in the middle, and the stamen in the middle was called the main Plum Blossom Island. The other four islands were called the Eastern Plum Blossom Island, the Western Island, the Southern Island, and the Northern Island.

After the five brothers had taken down Plum Blossom Island, they had jointly recommended that Situ Xiaoyang's ancestors manage the Plum Blossom Main Island. On the Plum Blossom Main Island, there was a medium-sized crystal vein.

When the five brothers had attacked Plum Blossom Island, they had also taken a fancy to the crystal mine on the main island. After Situ Xiaoyang's family had entered the main Plum Blossom Island, the other four great families had also eliminated people from their side.

Hundreds of thousands of years later, in Situ Xiaoyang's father's generation, the population had multiplied for who knew how many generations. Every family had several million people.

The islands belonging to the four families were obviously unable to satisfy the living needs of millions of people. The head of the four families, the Zhang Family, set his eyes on the Plum Blossom Main Island.

With such a thought in his mind, evil thoughts continued to grow in his mind. However, he couldn't do anything as there was a huge stumbling block in front of him, and that was Situ Xiaoyang's grandfather. The old man was now at the peak of the Supreme Realm and was far from something the four great families could contend against. Therefore, the Zhang, Wang, Li, and Zhao generations all kept their greed buried deep in their hearts, and on the surface, they still followed the lead of the Situ Family, silently waiting for the opportunity to make their move.

Twenty years ago, Situ Xiaoyang's grandfather went on an outing and came back to the clan three years ago. The Zhang family's spy quickly delivered the report and asked the newspaper to state that after Situ Xiaoyang's grandfather came back, his aura was unstable and his cultivation had dropped to the peak of the Mid Truth realm.

After investigation from many sources, they found out that his soul had been severely injured, and it was very likely that his life would end very soon. Even if he was still alive right now, he couldn't make a move against others.

The opportunity they had been waiting for finally came. The four families' Patriarchs quickly gathered together to discuss countermeasures. The four families were in agreement. The Zhang family's suggestion was immediately approved by the other three families.

The four of them gathered together and drew up a strict plan of action, as well as how to divide up the Plum Blossom Main Island. The four of them agreed that after three days, they would send all the warriors from the four families to surround the Plum Blossom Main Island.

Three days later, in the early hours of the morning, the four great families had already mobilized thousands of battleships, surrounding the main Plum Blossom Island. Each battleship had nearly a thousand True Spirit Realm cultivators.

Directly south of the Plum Blossom Main Island was the largest pier of the Situ Family. Thirteen warships were docked at the surface of the sea not far from the pier. Four middle-aged men stood facing the wind on the deck of the largest warship in the center.

On the main dock of the Situ Family, close to ten thousand cultivators of the Situ Family had already lined up in a formation. At the very front of the formation stood a middle-aged man.

At this time, Lu Qingfeng's group of seven was in the air behind the thirteen battleships. All of their auras had been restrained, and the people from the four great families had no idea.

Lu Qingfeng looked towards the shore and saw the middle-aged man standing in front of the formation. He turned to look at Situ Xiaoyang, who nodded and sent him a sound transmission, "You guessed right, that's my father. We really came at the right time, otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

At this moment, a voice came from the battleship below. Lu Qingfeng and the others lowered their heads and looked down. As they passed by Situ Xiaoyang, the seven of them knew that the one who spoke was the leader of the Zhang Family.

The Zhang Clan Head opened his mouth and said, "Big brother, we four brothers have come here today with no other intentions." The Zhang Clan Head opened his mouth and said, "Big brother, we four brothers have come here with no other intentions.

Situ Xiaoyang's father smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, my four bros. My father is not feeling well today and is currently in closed-door training, so it would be inconvenient for him to receive you. My four bros, please go back."

"How can that be?" At this moment, the Wang clan head spoke out as well. "It's rare for the four of us to get together. Since we're all here today, we should at least meet uncle once."

Just as the patriarch of the Wang family finished speaking, a weak voice came from the back of the group. "Since the four of you have requested to see this old man again and again, this old man has fulfilled your request." As the sound of his voice faded, an old man appeared in front of the formation.

Situ Xiaoyang's father hurried forward to pay his respects, "Father, why have you come?" The old man nodded: "You should move to the side first."

"Yes." Situ Xiaoyang's father respectfully retreated behind the old man. The old man looked at the four men and said indifferently, "The four of you have already seen me. Can you go back now?"

Lu Qingfeng saw the old man's expression and frowned. He sent a sound transmission to Situ Xiaoyang, "It seems your guess is correct. Your grandfather really has a problem. If my guess is correct, then your grandfather can't take action right now."

Lu Qingfeng could see it, and so could the four Patriarchs. Hearing the old man speak, the Zhang Family Patriarch said, "Since we have met uncle, the four of us should abandon the ship and go ashore to meet uncle."

With that, he ordered the sailors to quickly put down the small boats. The cultivators on the boats jumped on them and quickly headed to the shore. The four clan leaders also took off and flew to the shore.

Situ Xiaoyang's father saw the situation and shouted, "The four of you want to rebel?!"

The Zhang clan head sneered, "Big brother, what are you talking about? Why is it that your Situ clan can occupy the main island forever, while ours isn't? If your Situ clan withdraws from the main island, we'll immediately retreat."

Situ Xiaoyang's father was so angry that he started laughing, "Alright, since that's the case, let's talk after a fight."

Finishing his words, he instructed the guards to protect the Old Ancestor before turning around and drawing his longsword. In the sky, Lu Qingfeng and the others saw that the battle was about to begin and also drew their weapons.

The seven of them charged toward the heads of the four families. They no longer hid their tracks, and they quickly attracted everyone's attention. They all looked up into the sky.

Situ Xiaoyang's father felt the terrifying air pressure and his heart sank. When he looked up and saw the Situ siblings, he immediately felt relieved. He knew that his children had brought their friends back to the family home.

In Situ Xiaoyang's father's eyes, other than his own children and a woman with long purple hair, the other four people's cultivation bases were indiscernible. Obviously, they were much higher than his, so he was relieved.

The patriarchs of the four families had good judgement as well. The only difference was that when they saw the seven people rushing down from the sky, their faces showed neither joy nor terror. However, there was no point in thinking about it now.

Lu Qingfeng said, "Da Hu, go deal with one of them. Lan Yin will deal with one. Ru Bing and Ling'er will work together to deal with one. Situ, you two siblings quickly return to your uncle. Leave the other one to me."

Everyone nodded and went to their respective targets. In the blink of an eye, they all started fighting. When demon beasts of the same level fought with humans, it was usually the demon beasts that held the upper hand, not to mention the fact that the three great demon beasts had higher cultivation bases than the four of them.

There was no suspense in this kind of battle, not to mention Da Hu and Lan Yin, whose iron fists were practically invincible. Da Hu also had a top quality fist, and after a heavy punch, the two of them quickly killed off Li Zhao and the Patriarch respectively.

The battle between Ling'er and Rui Bing was extremely quick. Ling'er threw out a soul attack, and while her opponent was hugging her head and howling, Leng Ruice went up and killed him. Then, the two of them also charged into the crowd.

Lu Qingfeng was the most efficient. The Blood Devouring Sword was immediately cast with a flash of light. Taking advantage of the Zhang Clan Head closing his eyes, he swept through the universe and hacked the Zhang Clan Head into two halves.
