Chapter 221 Two Families Go to War
The Song family's guards hadn't all left yet; one at the ninth level of Qi Refining was left behind. Hearing the commotion, he immediately came over. When he saw the commotion inside, his legs went weak, and he almost collapsed to the ground. He was finished. He had protected the main family, but he had let the main family members die. His fate was already sealed.
He angrily pulled Tianwu up: "Tell me, what exactly happened?"
At this moment, the madam also came over. As the person in charge here, she naturally couldn't allow people to run wild here at will.
"How dare you! This is my Caiyun Pavilion, not a place for you to run wild. If something happens, we will naturally cooperate with your investigation. But if you want to act recklessly here without even knowing the facts, then my Caiyun Pavilion is not to be trifled with. Guards, investigate."
The guard reached out and blocked the people who wanted to come in to check: "The one who died was a young master of my Song family, so you don't need to bother. I have already notified the people in the clan, and naturally, people from the clan will come to check."
Not long after, a group of people arrived. The leader was a cultivator at the second level of Foundation Establishment. He was Song Cheming's uncle. After he arrived, he didn't waste any words with the people from Caiyunjian. However, after examining the situation for a long time, he still couldn't figure out who had killed Song Cheming.
"Guards, take this girl back and interrogate her thoroughly. Don't worry, Madam Yun, once we've investigated the matter, we'll ensure her safe return."
The madam was already very happy to be able to send them away, so she naturally wouldn't say anything more. Even if the girl Tianwu had a lot of fear and pleading in her eyes, she wouldn't soften her heart.
At the same time, a scream rang out from inside the Wang family. After returning home, Wang Ruoyu became increasingly angry and went to his concubine's room, where he made a scene for three hundred rounds before finally falling asleep. When the time set by Gu Yuchuan arrived, a burst of magic power was released, and he died without any chance of survival. The person who screamed was none other than his concubine, Zou Shi.
Wang Ruoyu was still somewhat favored at home, and the small courtyard suddenly became abuzz with activity. Many people began to take action, after all, the death of a direct descendant, especially in their own home, was something that needed to be investigated thoroughly. Otherwise, if a minor cultivator could die in their home today, wouldn't the Foundation Establishment cultivators in their home be in danger tomorrow?
They quickly discovered that Wang Ruoyu had a conflict with the Song family at Caiyun Pavilion that evening. Without any evidence, they concluded that the Song family was the murderer, just as the Song family had concluded they were the murderer.
That night, the Song and Wang families were brightly lit, and many people did not sleep. This trigger made the conflict between the two forces irreconcilable, and it could only be a matter of life and death.
Gu Yuchuan focused all his energy on observing Wang Ankang, the head of the Wang family, but he didn't go into the secret passage today. Gu Yuchuan was so angry that he wanted to curse. The two families were about to fight, and they didn't even need to use the secret technique they left behind. It served them right that they were suppressed by the Song family. It seemed that if they wanted to force out the location of this magic weapon, they would have to add fuel to the fire.
The next day, both families began to shrink their spheres of influence. Many cultivators who were away also received letters and began to return home. Many insightful people understood that the Song and Wang families were about to make a big move. However, both sides were very large, and once a fight broke out, the entire Ye City would be affected. Therefore, everyone was very restrained and prepared to strike decisively.
But this wasn't the scene Gu Yuchuan wanted to see. What he wanted to see was the two families fighting, and then the Wang family head going to get the magic artifact made from Xiao Wei's tail. He would seize the artifact, and their peaceful situation would prevent him from taking advantage of the chaos.
That night, Gu Yuchuan set off, carrying the Wang family's token, and arrived at a spirit stone mine outside Ye City. This was Song family territory, and he transformed his cultivation into the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment.
As soon as he approached, the protective formation activated, and the Song family cultivators shouted, "Who goes there? Retreat at once! This is the Song family's spirit stone mine. If you don't leave, you will be killed without mercy!"
Gu Yuchuan burst into laughter: "The Song family? Soon, this will be my Wang family's territory. You're all going to die."
He unleashed his power, breaking all the formations with just a few bursts of magic. However, there weren't many cultivators here; most had already gone home. He only killed one who had been insulting him and let two escape, because only if they fled could the Song family receive the news.
Having come this far, he began checking the nearby spirit stones, and sure enough, as expected, there were almost none left. Now that both families were on high alert, they naturally wanted to take all the spirit stones back with them. Even though it wasn't much, there was still a little, and he quickly took them all.
That night, the Song family was once again thrown into turmoil. In the Song family ancestral hall, Song Wushuang, the head of the Song family, looked at the boy kneeling on the ground and crying, his eyes also reddening: "Are you really sure that it was the Wang family who robbed our spirit stone mine?"
The young man kept kowtowing: "Patriarch, I'm sure he has the Wang family's token on him, and he even said that the spirit stone mine already belongs to the Wang family."
As soon as the boy finished speaking, a cacophony of voices erupted in the ancestral hall, all saying how despicable the Wang family was, how they had bullied them, and how this matter could not be left unresolved.
However, Song Wushuang had not yet made up his mind. The Wang family had risen to power in a shorter period than they had. He remembered from the clan's archives that the Wang family's rise was related to the demon race. Therefore, this was the real reason why he did not want to go to war with the Wang family. In this Wanhua Realm, although the demon race did not have any particularly large forces, the overall strength of the demon race was greater than that of the human race.
However, looking at his tribesmen below, who were united in their hatred of the enemy, he knew that this matter was not something he could suppress. The tribesmen's emotions had reached this point, and forcibly suppressing it would not be conducive to the development of their tribe.
"Alright, everyone shut up. Now grab your weapons and come with me to the Wang family to demand justice."
Everyone cheered; they had tolerated the Wang family for far too long. The Song family's move was quickly detected by the Wang family's spies, and Wang Ankang immediately began preparations, leading his large force out of the Wang family compound. These two forces were destined for war.
Gu Yuchuan was hiding among the Wang family's group, but he was positioned at the back. As weapon refiners, they were logistics personnel, not combat personnel, so they didn't need to be at the front.
In the darkness of night, one could see that many houses in Ye City had closed their doors. The Song family led a group of people from the east of the city to the west. The Wang family was already waiting. Moonlight and starlight descended from the sky upon them, adding to the tragic atmosphere. They were all very excited and prepared to give their lives for their families.
