Cuckoo Town: News of the Beast Tide's Incursion
Boom! Rumble...
With a final booming explosion, the "Cuckoo Secret Realm" was completely destroyed. Kong Wenxuan, clan leader Kong Changgeng, along with the Yan Household, Ma Household members they had protected, and the "Fire Crow" Ya Household and others, all returned to "Cuckoo County City".
However, at this moment, everyone saw that "Cuckoo County City" seemed to have undergone a Earth Dragon upheaval, with houses collapsing, the earth tearing apart, and even two of the three mountain ranges surrounding "Cuckoo County City" had collapsed, with a large number of rocks rolling into the county, causing more damage and casualties.
The Du Household family cultivators and clansmen are no longer in the city, but many other civilians and cultivators still live there. At this time, a large number of people are suffering from disaster, but no cultivators are helping these victims. Instead, there is looting and plundering everywhere, taking advantage of the disaster to make a fortune and running away after grabbing a sum of money.
Clearly, the crash of "Cuckoo True Spirit Star" and the destruction of "Cuckoo Secret Realm" have had a significant impact on "Cuckoo County City".
The failure of the Du Household and the flight of the Du Household cultivators and clansmen caused the disaster-stricken "Cuckoo County City" to completely lose control and order, which aroused evil thoughts in many cultivators living in the county, who took the opportunity to rob, kill and make a fortune from the disaster.
"Snort!"
Seeing the disaster and chaos in the county town, Ya Zhaoying snorted coldly, and then the cries of crows rang out. Her three hundred "Fire Crow Clone" immediately took flight and pounced on various parts of the chaotic county town, killing or suppressing the cultivators who were taking advantage of the chaos to rob, kill, and make a fortune from the disaster.
The aura and power of the cultivator at the Purple Mansion Stage surged forth, enveloping and suppressing the entire county.
"This Cuckoo County City is our ' Fire Crow ' Ya Household's property! From this day forward, it will be renamed Cuckoo Town! All the people and property in this town belong to our ' Fire Crow ' Ya Household. Anyone who dares to rob or kill will be punished!"
The sound of Ya Zhaoying echoed throughout the entire county, instantly announcing the ownership of this "Cuckoo County City".
Upon hearing this, Kong Wenxuan and the clan chief exchanged glances. Although they had been prepared, they had not been without the idea of taking advantage of the situation to seize "Cuckoo County City" and rename it "Peacock County Seat," making it their Kong Household's territory and foundation.
But now the Ya Household has also set its sights on this county town, taking over "Cuckoo County City" and making it their "Fire Crow" Ya Household's property. Naturally, the Kong Household cannot compete with an "Eighth-Grade True Spirit" Lineage.
Therefore, if the Kong Household, known as the "Peacock," wanted to own a county town and a base of business, they could only rely on their own strength to develop and build it.
"Third Uncle, Second Brother, you should lead the relief efforts. After all, ' Cuckoo Town ' will be our Ya Household's territory from now on, so it's better to have fewer casualties."
After announcing everything about "Cuckoo County City," Ya Zhaoying then gave instructions to the Ya Household members.
The four Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Ya Household immediately responded to the order and led the newly initiated servant cultivators of the Lao Household Lineage, including the "Shrike," to various parts of "Cuckoo County City." They gathered the cultivators still in the county and provided relief to the disaster-stricken people in various places.
Seeing this, Kong Wenxuan hesitated whether to step forward to help when the clan leader Kong Changgeng suddenly took out a "message Jade Slip" from his Storage Bag. It was flashing with starlight, indicating that a message had been sent.
This "communication Jade Slip" was also passed down from the Kong Household during its heyday. However, to transmit messages over long distances, this "communication Jade Slip" must rely on the power of its own "True Spirit Star" as an intermediary.
Therefore, this "communication Jade Slip" had been gathering dust in the Lineage treasury until Kong Wenxuan successfully Star Inlaying, and the Kong Household once again had its own "Peacock True Spirit Star", so this "communication Jade Slip" could be put back into use.
Today, Kong Wenxuan and the clan chief each have one of these "message Jade Slip," as well as one each in the clan's territory "Peacock Ridge" and the squad serving at "Demon-Suppressing Pass," to facilitate communication and contact.
At this moment, the clan leader sensed a message coming from the "communication Jade Slip." He immediately took it out to check the information, his expression changed instantly, and he called out to Kong Wenxuan, "Wenxuan, let's return to the Lineage immediately!"
"Wenzhang sent a message a day ago: ' Demon-Suppressing Pass has been breached by the Demon Beast tide. The Demon Beast tide, which has now entered Demon-Suppressing Pass from the southern mountains, is wreaking havoc everywhere. One Demon Beast horde is heading towards our Kong Household's Peacock Ridge.'"
Judging from the timeline and the speed of the Demon Beast horde's advance, they are probably not far from "Peacock Ridge" now!
Kong Wenxuan was also startled upon hearing this. He quickly took out the "communication Jade Slip" from his Storage Bag. Sure enough, it was also flashing with starlight, indicating that a message had been sent. He immediately probed it with his Divine Sense and found several messages inside. They were all from his elder brother Kong Wenzhang, who was serving at the "Demon-Suppressing Pass". The earliest message was from a day ago.
Their battle with the Du Household in the "Cuckoo Secret Realm" seemed to go very smoothly, but it still took them more than a day.
Moreover, previously within the "Cuckoo Secret Realm," the "Cuckoo True Spirit Star" suppressed and blocked them, preventing the "communication Jade Slip" from receiving outside messages. As a result, they only received these messages and learned of the changes at "Demon-Suppressing Pass" now that they had left the secret realm.
At that moment, Kong Wenxuan had no desire to stay and help the Ya Household reorganize "Cuckoo County City" and provide relief to the disaster victims. He immediately agreed with the clan chief's suggestion and said, "Let's return to Peacock Ridge!"
At this moment, the clan leader had already taken out the Second Tier "Feather Boat" and activated it, and the two immediately boarded the "Feather Boat".
"Clan Chief Kong, please take us with you!"
At this moment, Yan Zhiyu, the head of the Yan Lineage, known as "Swift," who was following behind them, hurriedly called out.
Following behind the two members of the Kong Household, they naturally heard their conversation and learned that "Demon-Suppressing Pass" had been breached and that a troop of Demon Beast was heading towards "Peacock Ridge".
You should know that the Yan Household's ancestral land "Swallow Dock" and the Ma Household's ancestral land "Sparrow Ridge" are both adjacent to the Kong Household's "Peacock Ridge". Who knows if the Demon Beast team will suddenly turn around and attack their Lineage's ancestral land halfway as they march towards "Peacock Ridge".
Therefore, at this moment, everyone was naturally anxious about the safety of their own Lineage's territory and wanted to hurry back to their clan's territory.
Now, taking the Kong Household's "Feather Boat" to fly to "Peacock Ridge" and then rushing to the neighboring clan territory is undoubtedly the fastest way.
"Get on the Feather Boat quickly!" Clan Chief Kong Changgeng did not refuse upon hearing this, but instead urged them to board the flying boat immediately.
After all, the "Swift" Yan Household and the "Sparrow" Ma Household had already decided to become disciples of the Kong Household and serve as servant Lineage of the Kong Household, so they were considered as one of their own.
The Kong Household, of course, could not stand idly by and watch their own people suffer, with heavy casualties, as that would weaken their own forces.
"Senior Crow!" Kong Wenxuan, standing on the "Feather Boat," bowed to Ya Zhaoying and announced, "We received a message from our clansmen that the ' Demon-Suppressing Pass ' has been breached by the Demon Beast beast tide, which has now entered ' Cuckoo County.' Our Lineage's territory is in grave danger, and we dare not linger here. We must take our leave now."
"After we've dealt with the beast tide and ensured the safety of our people, we'll come to visit you again, senior!"
Kong Wenxuan's words were both a farewell to the Ya Household and a reminder to the remaining servant cultivator Lineage, including the Ya Household and the "Shrike" Lao Household family, that the beast tide had entered their territory and that they should be careful about the safety of their Lineage's land.
Upon hearing this Ya Zhaoying nodded slightly to him and said with a smile, "It's alright. My ' Fire Crow ' Ya Household's army has already entered ' Cuckoo County,' and killing and driving away the beast tide is a piece of cake."
"Since your Kong Household is worried about the safety of your clan's territory, you should go back first."
"After we resolve this beast tide crisis, I will take you to see the Prefect of Bifang Commandery to report on the Du Household's misfortune and to inform you of the affairs of your Peacock Kong Household!"
"Thank you, senior. With the help of the Ya Household's army, I am much more at ease. I am confident that we will be able to quickly eliminate the demonic aura and resolve the crisis of the beast tide." Kong Wenxuan immediately bowed in gratitude and praised him.
Immediately afterwards, the two members of the Kong Household, along with members of the Yan Household and Ma Household, flew away from "Cuckoo County City" in their "Feather Boat" and headed towards their Lineage's ancestral land, "Peacock Ridge".
