Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill-Chapter 326 - 271: The Complete Annihilation of the Thousand-Year-Old Family
Chapter 326: Chapter 271: The Complete Annihilation of the Thousand-Year-Old Family
Wang Sheng and Zhu Xiao hadn’t seen each other for quite some time.
Suddenly seeking him out, Wang Sheng didn’t know what the matter was, but since he had been found, he wanted to check, was there any source of information more complete than Yuelai Inn?
This time he went directly to the headquarters of Yuelai Inn in Chi State.
Along the way, Wang Sheng also roughly looked over the cities on the route.
Overall, after the Taiping Sect had commanded the Central Five States, they had recuperated and, coupled with the strong power of the Taiping Sect itself, the Central Five States had developed quite well and could be considered peaceful and prosperous.
It was just unknown what the condition of the regions ruled by the four great dynasties was like.
...
In order to deal with matters, Zhu Xiao generally spent more time at headquarters and before long, Wang Sheng met with him.
“You seem to have changed, become stronger!” Zhu Xiao’s senses were still very sharp.
Wang Sheng was somewhat curious, “Why would you say that?”
“When I look at you, I feel like you have become one with the universe, returning to the truth. Of course, all these are just wild guesses, the main thing is that now you seem to have no power at all, other than getting stronger I can’t think of any other possibility.”
Zhu Xiao didn’t think Wang Sheng had lost his power, so there was only one possibility, that he had become stronger.
“Indeed there have been some gains.”
Refining Qi into God, the gains were not small.
Although he had not fully transformed, his strength had indeed increased a lot.
“You really are abnormal. You have been in seclusion all this time, right? These should be what you want.” Zhu Xiao threw out something similar to a document, “This contains the latest intelligence from the last couple of years, you probably want to know about this.”
“You know me well.” Wang Sheng smiled, this was indeed what he wanted to see, but he didn’t start reading right away, “You’re looking for me for more than just this information, aren’t you?”
“Let’s talk about this matter later, it should arrive soon. For now, check your own.”
Zhu Xiao didn’t immediately speak about his matter.
Wang Sheng didn’t press and started reading the intelligence in his hands.
The very first piece of intelligence shocked Wang Sheng.
“The Eastern Dynasty was eradicated in the 545th year of the Great Zhou Calendar, in April. The Eastern Dynasty fell, the Sun Family attempted to flee but were all eradicated, the seven great clans, the Sun Family, completely vanished.”
“The Sun Family is gone, is that what I think it means?”
Zhu Xiao nodded, not saying much.
“A family that lasted thousands of years was eradicated?”
Not long ago the kings of the four great dynasties were still exceedingly arrogant, and yet in such a short time, a family was permanently eradicated.
Wang Sheng continued to read.
The eradication of a family that lasted thousands of years wasn’t simple.
Who had accomplished it? Even a Master of Destiny couldn’t do it, yet it happened in this era without a Master of Destiny.
If this wasn’t intelligence given by Zhu Xiao, he would have immediately thought it impossible.
Even with this intelligence, he felt something was off.
“According to investigation, the power most likely to eradicate the Sun Family is an emerging force, led by Mo Yang of the Shengshi Army. Mo Yang somehow managed to block and destroy the forces the Sun Family were pulling back. Currently, the suspect is Mo Yang’s military strategist, who seems to be a descendant of Stargazing Valley.”
“Mo Yang?”
Wang Sheng certainly knew him, he had even fought side by side at one point and had encountered him during the destruction of the Great Zhou at the palace.
At that time, Mo Yang’s power was only that of a Grandmaster, but according to this intelligence, he might not just be a Grandmaster, but a top Great Grandmaster.
Had it been that long?
But he soon came to terms with it; if people like Huangtian and Xu Qu could appear, Mo Yang probably also had some unique aspect.
The intelligence also had information about Mo Yang.
“Mo Yang, the leader of the emerging force, the Shengshi Army, a very powerful force. In April of the 545th year of the Great Zhou calendar, he faced the leader of the Wu Dynasty, Wu Qingfeng, and was not at a disadvantage, matching him equally, securing a foothold for the Shengshi Army.
In the same month, Shengshi fought over the Eastern Dynasty’s territories with the remaining three great dynasties, demonstrating extremely strong military power, ultimately determining that the core of the Shengshi Army is composed of the three top military corps of the former Great Zhou Dynasty, Zhou Tian Army, including King Yong Nian’s Heavenly Star Army and a series of similar leveled forces with an extremely strong combat capability, even capable of suppressing the Cang Dynasty’s Heavenly Blue Army at its core.
Thus, the Eastern Dynasty’s territories were finally occupied 70% by the Shengshi Army, and 30% by the Cang Dynasty, also marking the Shengshi Army’s rise to fame. The destruction of the Eastern Dynasty made Shengshi the fifth great power.
Moreover, intelligence indicates that Mo Yang seems to be preparing to establish a dynasty.
…”
Wang Sheng knew how fast the situation could change, but he never imagined the changes would be this significant.
In just a short time, a top force had been replaced.
The Eastern Dynasty had been eradicated, something he never thought possible.
Though Mo Yang’s rise shocked him, he also knew it was not impossible, given that the descendant of Stargazing Valley was no ordinary person.
After the shock, he finished reviewing all the information.
“The situation changes by the day!”
“I too am shocked. The Sun Family has been eradicated. Honestly, I still doubt the veracity of this intelligence, but all kinds of information are confirming this event.” Zhu Xiao, being from one of the seven great families, knew very well how capable those people were in hiding.
Wang Sheng shook his head, not saying much more.
Since his breakthrough, Wang Sheng had felt some differences in the world. He had initially thought it was an illusion, but now it seemed that the unusual sensation truly existed.
The feeling was indescribable, somewhat like a killing intent, yet also like a sense of crisis.
Unfortunately, his realm was not high enough, and he had not fully refined his Primordial Spirit, so he could not probe deeply.
The process of increasing strength was also a process of exploring the essence of the world.
Lacking sufficient strength, he could only set aside these feelings.
However, another matter came to mind.
“If the Sun Family were to be destroyed, then whose hands would the method that ensures becoming a top Great Grandmaster fall into?”
“If it’s an object, it’s most likely in Mo Yang’s hands; if it’s a method, it could very well be lost. I don’t think the Sun Family would give it to Mo Yang,” Zhu Xiao clearly didn’t know where it was either, offering an ambiguous statement, “But with Mo Yang in power, it’s actually quite good for me. At least they won’t hinder the development of Yuelai Inn.”
The establishment of the four great dynasties hadn’t completely banned Yuelai Inn, but it was still somewhat affected.
“Is the impact severe?” Wang Sheng hadn’t been paying much attention to these issues.
“It’s manageable elsewhere, but in the Cang Dynasty, it’s practically impossible to make any progress. The business at Yuelai Inn has stalled, and the staff were forced to withdraw.”
“Why so?” It couldn’t just be due to competition among women, right?
“That’s also a reason why I sought you out this time… Here they come; we can verify it now.”
Wang Sheng sensed that someone was approaching.
Soon after, a maid knocked and entered: “Miss, this is the information you wanted.”
“Got it, put it here!”
The maid respectfully placed the information down and glanced at Wang Sheng before leaving.
“She is someone I saved before; now she works for me as a maid. She might be curious about my relationship with you!” Zhu Xiao chuckled, then opened and read the information.
“Just as I thought, my guess wasn’t wrong!”
“What is it?”
Zhu Xiao handed the information to Wang Sheng, saying, “We have found Zhu Long’s lineage!”
Wang Sheng’s eyes narrowed.
Zhu Long’s lineage was another branch of the Zhu Family, and Wang Sheng wasn’t concerned about their fate.
But what he truly cared for was the method for becoming a top Great Grandmaster, which was in their possession.
Wang Sheng picked up the information and quickly read through it.
“They are cooperating with Divine Lady Peak in the Cang Dynasty?”
“Yes, and they aren’t scared Divine Lady Peak might wipe them out. I wonder if they know what happened to the Sun Family.”
The Seven Great Families, according to the Zhu Family Clan Elders, weren’t exactly harmonious. If they could wipe out the other six, they wouldn’t hesitate.
Cooperating with Divine Lady Peak was like seeking refuge from a tiger, especially now that Zheng Xueyue had vastly increased in strength due to the establishment of the dynasties.
“What do you plan to do?”
“Of course, I’ll bring the people back; I don’t need that object, but I can’t be without it.”
Zhu Xiao was quite obsessed with these things.
“Do you need my help?”
“Of course, in fact, I might not be a match for Zheng Xueyue anymore…” Although embarrassed, Zhu Xiao admitted it frankly; the Cang Dynasty had gained a third of the Eastern Dynasty’s territory, increasing its strength, and she was now stuck at a bottleneck, making it hard to improve her power, “Of course, I’ll act within my abilities. If it’s not feasible, I’ll give up immediately.”
She wasn’t foolish enough to engage in a direct confrontation.
“No problem, let’s give it a try!”
Wang Sheng readily agreed; having just reached the realm of Refining Qi into God, he wanted to test his current strength.
Refining Qi into God seemed not to represent a qualitative leap.
But only true combat would reveal how strong he had truly become.
Moreover, there was another very important reason: he wanted to know exactly what that method for becoming a top Great Grandmaster was.
He believed it might be related to the Heavenly Father.
Everything related to Heavenly Father intensely piqued his interest; they had significant grievances.
The crisis he had narrowly escaped during his recent breakthrough could very well have involved Heavenly Father’s deeds.
“Alright, I’ll go prepare,” Zhu Xiao said with a smile, obviously eager to bring those people back.
It wasn’t long before Zhu Xiao was ready.
The two did not hesitate and directly flew toward the Cang Dynasty.
Although they kept a low profile and did not alarm anyone deliberately, they still encountered powerful beings along the way.
Especially the Controller of Central Five States, Huangtian.
“Manager Zhu… and Sir?”

Huangtian thought for a moment and directly followed them.
Meanwhile, Zheng Xueyue was meeting with someone…
