Chapter 2251 Deterrence
In the Shangguan family, when the news of Qing Zong spread, all the senior members of the Shangguan family gathered together.
With the death of Shangguan Kuangshi, Shangguan Xuanzhen and other powerful men all died in the ancient world. Now there is only one God King left in the Shangguan family, and that is Shangguan Zong, who is a God King of the fourth level.
so.
Shangguan Zong naturally became the current head of the Shangguan family.
“My Shangguan family must obtain the inheritance of the top God. In addition, we can also take this opportunity to get closer to the Qing Sect.
Ever since the ancestors and other powerful men died in the ancient world, many forces have been watching covetously.
If it weren’t for the Qing Sect, whether my Shangguan family could preserve the foundation of inheritance would be a problem…”
In the lobby, Shangguan Zong looked at the many family elders in front of him, his face looking particularly heavy.
The remaining elders all looked unhappy when they heard this.
Today, the Shangguan family is at the end of its rope.
At the time when powerful men like Shangguan Xuanzhen had not yet perished, although the Shangguan family had declined, it still had some heritage left. In their small piece of land in the ancient wilderness, they did not have to fear many forces.
But now it’s different.
Many powerful men of the Shangguan family died in the ancient world, and much of their heritage was brought in with them and eventually left behind in the ancient world.
Now the ancient world is broken.
The Shangguan family had no idea where these things had gone.
It is possible that it disappeared along with the ancient world in the turbulence of space, or it may appear in other places and become an opportunity for a certain cultivator.
But no matter which situation it is, it has nothing to do with the current Shangguan family.
The foundation is lost.
In addition, the deaths of many powerful people resulted in serious losses to the family inheritance.
If the Shangguan family does not make changes, then in a few years, they will disappear completely in the long river of time like other declining forces.
Shangguan Zong does not want to be the last head of the Shangguan family and watch his family perish in his hands.
so.
The Shangguan family must obtain the inheritance of the God of Qingcheng Chamber of Commerce.
in addition.
Shangguan Zong also planned to use this opportunity to express the Shangguan family’s intentions to Qing Zong and see if the other party would accept the Shangguan family.
The Shangguan family and Shen Changqing used to be allies, but now their identities and status have completely changed.
The former fell into decline, with only a deity left in charge, while the latter founded the Qing Sect, intending to become the overlord of the ancient wilderness.
“Does the Patriarch want my Shangguan family to become a vassal of the Qing Sect?”
The person who spoke was an elder of the Shangguan family, named Shangguan Xiong.
Shangguan Zong glanced at the other party and said calmly: “If it really comes to that, what’s wrong with becoming a vassal of Qingzong?”
Speaking of this.
Shangguan Zong looked at the other elders again and said loudly: “It’s time for you all to wake up. The glory of the Shangguan family has faded. The death of Xuanzhen Patriarch and other gods in the ancient world has completely broken the only backbone of my Shangguan family.
If the Shangguan family wants to preserve its roots and heritage, they can only keep their heads down and quietly accumulate strength, so that they have a chance to return to the top.
Otherwise, only destruction awaits the family!”
Hearing this.
Shangguan Xiong and other elders were silent again.
Although Shangguan Zong’s words were harsh to hear, they were true.
The Shangguan family now has nothing to be proud of.
The ancient family had come to this point, and was only a short distance away from destruction.
a long time.
Shangguan Xiong sighed: “The Patriarch is right, we have no other way out now!”
“Becoming a vassal of the Qing Sect is the best outcome, but I’m afraid that the current Qing Sect may not be able to look down upon my Shangguan family.
Once Qing Zong cuts off ties with the Shangguan family, the Shangguan family will be in real trouble!”
Shangguan Zong’s expression became solemn.
The same thing.
The Shangguan family is not the same now as it used to be.
Whether the Qing Sect can look down upon a declining ancient family is indeed a question.
Or rather.
If the Shangguan family wants Qingzong to pay attention to them, they must come up with something that will impress the latter.
otherwise.
Why would the other party waste their energy to deal with a declining family?
Hearing this.
The other elders felt even more sad.
When did the Shangguan family decline to such a state? If they want to become a vassal of other sects, they have to consider whether the other party is willing.
But there was nothing wrong with Shangguan Zong’s words, and they could only suppress the humiliation.
…
When the news of the God’s inheritance came out.
Less than half a month.
The number of cultivators in Qingcheng suddenly increased several times.
Most of the cultivators came here because of the god’s reputation. They never thought about receiving the god’s inheritance, but just wanted to watch the fun.
in addition.
I just want to take advantage of this opportunity to see if I can find some chances.
There is nothing we can do about this.
It goes without saying that the inheritance of the God King will be sold at a sky-high price once it is auctioned. It is a sheer pipe dream to want to obtain the inheritance of the God King without the corresponding background.
Let’s take a step back.
Even if you really get the inheritance of the God, you must have the ability to protect the inheritance.
otherwise.
Even if you get the inheritance, it will only be a favor to others.
“Reporting to the Sect Master, currently 30% of the forces from Ancient Wasteland have arrived, and the rest are also on their way. It is estimated that by the day of the auction, the number of Qingcheng cultivators will reach its peak.
Due to the large number of cultivators during this period, Qingcheng’s tax revenue has increased a lot.
Compared to usual, it’s almost a tenfold increase!”
Inside the Qingcheng City Lord’s Mansion, an elegant middle-aged man was reporting something to Shen Changqing.
The other party’s name is Jiang Mo, a deacon of Qing Sect and the current lord of Qingcheng, in charge of all matters big and small in Qingcheng.
Shen Changqing nodded slightly: “Now that there are so many monks, there shouldn’t be anyone causing trouble, right?”
“The sect is well-known, and Qingcheng is guarded by many disciples of the sect. How dare the ancient wilderness forces act rashly? Even if there are some blind people, they are all suppressed without causing much trouble.”
Jiang Mo said in a deep voice.
Shen Changqing picked up the spiritual tea, took a sip, and then put the teacup down again.
“The Qingcheng Chamber of Commerce auction will be held in ten days or so. I don’t want any trouble to happen. Anyone who causes trouble will be severely punished and thrown into the Heavenly Prison. Notify the forces they belong to to come and pay the fine, and then take them away.
If no force comes forward, then just imprison him for a hundred or eighty years.
If the situation is serious, we will kill them on the spot, and we don’t have to worry about offending other forces.”
At the end, murderous intent appeared in Shen Changqing’s eyes.
The Qingcheng Chamber of Commerce auction was related to whether he could obtain a large number of Netherworld Spirit Stones and then use the opportunity to impact the realm of great power.
so.
Shen Changqing absolutely cannot tolerate anyone trying to sabotage him.
Jiang Mo understood what the other party meant when he heard this, and said in a serious tone: “Master, don’t worry. I will supervise everything. Otherwise, any cultivator will disrupt the order of Qingcheng.”
“Well, I let you lead Qingcheng because I think highly of you. If I remember correctly, you have been at the peak of the Divine Lord for some years.
When this matter is over, you can go to the treasure pavilion to find the divine inheritance that suits you.
The cultivation of the Supreme Divine Lord is indeed a little bit lacking. The Qing Sect is destined to become stronger and stronger, and so is Qingcheng. If you want to secure your position as the City Lord, you must at least have the cultivation of a Divine Lord. “
“Thank you, Master!”
Jiang Mo’s face was full of joy.
Shen Changqing’s words were undoubtedly a great affirmation of himself.
The reason why Jiang Mo is devoted to managing Qingcheng is naturally because he wants to make further progress. Now that Shen Changqing has given him this opportunity, the Lord of Qingcheng is naturally grateful.
soon.
Jiang Mo just stepped back.
Shen Changqing continued to sip the spiritual tea and watched the changes in Qingcheng leisurely.
He was often either in seclusion or fighting with powerful men, and he rarely had leisure time like this.
It is said that cultivation requires a combination of work and rest, and Shen Changqing also understands this principle. However, many times he cannot combine work and rest just because he wants to, but the changing situation forces him to deal with various problems.
now.
The time spent in Qingcheng was the first time Shen Changqing relaxed after all the years he had entered the underworld.
Watching the ebb and flow of the tides, the rise and fall of all beings, and the evolution of the world with a calm mind, he unconsciously underwent some changes in his heart.
The original progress of all things returning to one has made a slight and imperceptible progress forward.
This bit of progress may seem subtle, but if one wants to achieve it through seclusion, it will take at least dozens or even hundreds of years.
Shen Changqing noticed the changes in himself, with a smile on his face, and felt more relaxed.
“It’s a pity that this kind of insight is hard to come by, otherwise it would be a wonderful thing to be able to break through by drinking tea on a daily basis!”
…
After receiving Shen Changqing’s order, Jiang Mo acted much more ruthlessly. Any cultivator who dared to cause trouble, regardless of his background or status, would be thrown into the Heavenly Prison, and then the forces behind him would be notified to come and pay the fine.
Some of those whose impact was more serious and whose circumstances were more egregious were also killed on the spot by Jiang Mo.
but.
After all, the strength of Jiang Mo and the Qingcheng guards was a little lacking, so it was no problem to suppress the trouble caused by ordinary cultivators.
But once you encounter a strong person who wants to suppress you, it won’t be so easy.
in.
There was an old-fashioned independent cultivator who relied on his own cultivation to cause trouble in the city and even injured several Qing Sect disciples. Just when the other party was feeling proud of himself, Shen Changqing came forward directly and did not give him any chance to explain. He beat the independent cultivator to ashes with one punch.
This battle made all the monks terrified.
Only then did they remember that the Qing Sect was no pushover and that it was established on the corpses of the three ancient forces.
In that initial battle, the number of cultivators who died at the hands of Qing Zong was far more than just hundreds of millions.
The ancient forces could be destroyed at will, let alone other independent cultivators and forces.
so.
After Shen Changqing personally took action, the huge Qingcheng suddenly became quiet. Many cultivators who had acted recklessly, relying on their own high levels of cultivation or strong backgrounds, now kept their heads down and dared not cause trouble anymore.
