The Crisis Remains: Kong Wenxuan's Proposal
Not only did the Ma Household, known as the "Sparrow," suffer heavy casualties in the "Cuckoo Secret Realm," but the Yan Household, known as the "Swift," also suffered severe damage in the secret realm. Of the clansmen and disciples that Yan Zhiyu brought, only three returned unharmed; the rest died in the secret realm. Even their bloodline power was extracted by the "Starlight Cuckoo" and used as provisions for the Du Household's "A Hundred Birds Pay Homage to the Phoenix to the Phoenix" ceremony.
Therefore, seeing that the Ma Household "Sparrow" was alright, Yan Zhiyu could no longer sit still and rushed back to his Lineage to deal with the deaths and injuries of his clansmen.
Similarly, it was not appropriate for Kong Wenxuan to disturb these two servant Lineage at this time, so he did not stay long at the Ma Household, known as "Sparrow." After accepting the gratitude and homage of the Ma Household cultivators and clansmen, he used the "Feather Boat" to send Yan Lineage patriarch Yan Zhiyu back to the Yan Lineage's territory, "Swallow Dock."
In the Yan Lineage territory, he also received a ceremony of gratitude and acknowledgment of God from the Yan family cultivators and clansmen led by the Yan Household Lineage patriarch.
However, when either the Ma Household or the Yan Household kowtowed, Kong Wenxuan did not, like the Du Household cultivator did before, guide the power of the "True Spirit Star" and project it into the bodies of the two families' cultivators.
After all, the cultivators from the Yan and Ma families had just experienced the pain of the "Cuckoo" Du Household "The Cuckoo Occupies the Magpie's Nest" their bloodline power, so they were naturally apprehensive and resistant to it.
The Kong Household had only recently been promoted to a "Ninth-Grade True Spirit" Lineage, and it was precisely the time when they needed to recruit more people and strengthen their power. Naturally, they took good care of the servant cultivator Lineage who were the first to join their ranks, and did not force them.
Moreover, the Kong Household does not possess the Bloodline Divine Ability of "The Cuckoo Occupies the Magpie's Nest," nor does it have the means to extract the bloodline power of other Bloodline Lineage. Therefore, there is no need to force the servant Lineage cultivators to accept the projection of the "Peacock True Spirit Star."
However, this does present a slight problem: since neither the Yan nor the Ma families have cultivators who have received the power of the Peacock True Spirit Star," they cannot use the "communication Jade Slip " that transmits messages through the " Peacock True Spirit Star," and therefore cannot contact the Kong Household in a timely manner.
Therefore, if the two families encounter any formidable enemies or major events, they will have no choice but to send someone to notify the Kong Household for help, which may cause considerable delays.
Even so, Kong Wenxuan did not suggest these things to the two families, so as not to cause any misunderstanding.
At the same time, the Kong Household is, after all, the master family, while the Yan and Ma families are, after all, servant Lineage. The Kong Household's desire to "buy a horse's bones with a thousand pieces of gold" and recruit manpower is already sufficient; going too far is as bad as not going far enough!
The Kong Household wasn't the nanny of the Yan and Ma families. If the Yan and Ma families were truly like that and still suffered misfortune, then it truly was their destiny to face this calamity.
Therefore, Kong Wenxuan did not stay at the Yan Household for long and soon returned to his clan's territory, "Peacock Ridge," on his "Feather Boat."
The clan's territory, "Peacock Ridge," has been completely free of Demon Beast attacks. This is because Kong Wenxuan and the clan leader returned in time, and the territory was not breached by the Demon Beast. Therefore, the entire Lineage suffered no major losses or casualties.
Unlike the Yan Household and Ma Household Kong Household was filled with joy.
At this moment, in the Lineage council hall, Kong Wenxuan, clan head Kong Changgeng, as well as the eldest elder Kong Changsen Kong Changlan, the second elder Kong Changfeng, the third elder Kong Yushuo, the third aunt Kong Yuyin, the fifth uncle Kong Yuchui, the eldest brother Kong Wenzhang, the fourth sister Kong Wenjun, and other important members of the Kong Household and cultivators gathered together.
Uncle Kong Yushuo's injuries have mostly healed, but the arm that was bitten off by the Second Tier wolf demon has not recovered. To regenerate the severed arm, he would need healing pills of at least the Fourth Tier, which are not available near Cuckoo County.
In the council hall, the clan chief told Kong Wenxuan about their encounters in "Cuckoo County City" and "Cuckoo Secret Realm," while the eldest brother Kong Wenzhang and others also talked about the breach of "Demon-Suppressing Pass."
According to the elder brother and others, when the tide of Demon Beast gathered outside the "Demon-Suppressing Pass" attacked the "Demon-Suppressing Pass", the cultivators from various servant Lineage gathered inside the pass discovered that the cultivators of the Du Household, as well as the two legions of the Du Household guarding the "Demon-Suppressing Pass", had disappeared without anyone knowing when.
Without the Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Du Household and the legion to guard and resist, the remaining scattered soldiers of the servant cultivator Lineage were simply unable to resist the attack of the Demon Beast tide on "Demon-Suppressing Pass".
Moreover, under those circumstances, no one had the will to defend "Demon-Suppressing Pass" and they all fled in haste, so "Demon-Suppressing Pass" was breached by the Demon Beast tide in less than half a day.
Then, these hordes of Demon Beast began to hunt down the fleeing cultivators from various servant Lineage, and several Demon Beast teams, clearly organized, began to attack various parts of "Cuckoo County".
Among them was the wolf demon team that attacked the Kong Household's "Peacock Ridge".
Upon hearing this, Kong Wenxuan already knew that while the Du Household's deliberate actions in breaching the "Demon-Suppressing Pass" were certainly part of the Demon Beast tide, the Demon Race race was likely also behind it.
Even the rumors that suddenly broke out in the "Demon-Suppressing Pass Suppression Pass" about the Du Household "The Cuckoo Occupies the Magpie's Nest" the Bloodline Divine Ability were probably also influenced by the Demon Race race.
As for whether this was a tacit agreement or a collaboration between the Du Household and the Demon Race, or a scheme devised by the Demon Race after learning of the Du Household's plan, it remains to be seen.
Now, however, we can only wonder what happened.
However, one thing is certain: among the Demon Beast hordes that have invaded "Cuckoo County," the Demon Race is definitely not just Lang Jitong of the "Gray Wolf" Lang Household. There must be other Demon Race controlling and commanding those Demon Beast hordes that are attacking various parts of "Cuckoo County."
Although the crisis in Kong Household's "Peacock Ridge" area has been resolved, the crisis in the entire "Cuckoo County" has not yet been resolved.
The horde of Demon Beast that invaded "Cuckoo County" is still wreaking havoc throughout the Cuckoo County, and the Demon Race who are plotting and directing it behind the scenes are continuing their actions.
If they cannot completely eliminate or drive away the hordes of Demon Beast and Demon Race that have invaded "Cuckoo County", then even the Kong Household may not be safe.
After all, no one knew whether more Demon Beast beasts or Demon Race would attack their Kong Household's territory, "Peacock Ridge."
"Ya Zhaoying said that their ' Fire Crow ' Ya Household's forces have entered Cuckoo County, hoping to wipe out the Demon Beast tide and deal with the Demon Beast race behind Demon Race!"
Clan Chief Kong Changgeng also expressed some concern at this moment.
Kong Wenxuan then said thoughtfully, "Clan leader, I plan to go and join forces with the ' Fire Crow ' Ya Household's army. If possible, we can work together to wipe out the Demon Beast horde and Demon Race that have invaded ' Ya Household Cuckoo County '."
"Therefore, we cannot just sit and wait for news. Someone must be on the front lines to keep abreast of the situation on the battlefield, so that we don't become victims if something unexpected happens and we, the Kong Household, are unaware."
"Secondly, since ' Cuckoo County City ' has been occupied by the ' Fire Crow ' Ya Household, our Kong Household, as a newly promoted ' Ninth-Grade True Spirit ' Lineage, must expand our territory and build our own county if we want to establish a county that belongs to our Kong Household."
"Now is the perfect time for our Kong Household to make a name for ourselves and extend our kindness to those Bloodline Lineage and cultivators who have been attacked and slaughtered by the Demon Beast tides and Demon Race races. Even if only one or two more Bloodline Lineage are willing to follow our Kong Household afterward and help us expand our Kong Household and build counties, that would be good."
