Sleeping for a second increases my blood energy. I become the strongest sky-swallowing snake

#290 - The night-wandering divine cat Nineteen is transcending tribulation!

"Rather than fighting, it's better to win them over," Sima De said.

As soon as he said this, the other two were stunned at first, and then they both showed thoughtful expressions.

After thinking for a few breaths, the two couldn't help but nod slightly.

Whether Bai Niangniang and her group were sent by other forces or not, taking the initiative to seek peace was better than endless fighting.

If everyone was just pawns, there was no need to fight to the death.

If not, what they wanted was the incense of the gods, which did not conflict with the secular wealth sought by the three families to which they belonged.

The protectors and retainers who followed the snake immortal were either cultivators or demons.

The wealth and riches of the mortal world were probably not something they valued.

"But what if those three places don't allow it? What should we do then?" the Zheng family head stroked his beard and frowned.

Unlike them, the three places that cooperated with the other party were also calculating for incense.

"If they don't allow it, then let them come and move this deity away," the Sima family head said gloomily, "We don't have the ability to do so."

The excuses for shirking responsibility were readily available.

'The other party is powerful, and we are no match for them. We don't want to be ruined by them, so we came up with this delaying tactic.'

'Please, gentlemen, decide how to deal with it.'

Such pretexts didn't need to be explained. With a mutual glance, they knew what to do.

"That's right, we are all ordinary mortals and will not participate in it," the Zheng family head nodded and said, "Then I will send someone to Bai Niangniang Temple in Songjia Village to have a good talk with that Xu Daoren, if possible… Hmm?"

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly felt the sky darken.

In an instant, it was as if dusk had arrived.

He couldn't help but stand up abruptly.

He called out:

"Someone!"

"What's happening outside?"

Sima De and the Wang family head also stood up one after another, looking outside the hall.

"This is early spring, not summer. Why is it like this?"

Before a summer thunderstorm, it would be dark all around, with dark clouds everywhere.

But that required the wind to rise and the clouds to gather.

Today was a clear spring day.

Why was there a sudden loss of light?

"Is there a demon descending?"

The three looked at each other.

Could it be that the White Dragon King of the Two Realms River had received the news?

Had he sent someone?

Boom boom!

Suddenly, thunder roared in the sky.

Then, in a flash of lightning, dark clouds rolled in.

There was a faint sound of thunder rumbling within.

"Family Head! Family Head!"

"Something bad has happened! Something bad has happened!"

A figure came running from outside.

He shouted, "The people from Bai Niangniang Temple are attacking!"

This person was a leader of the Zheng family's retainers, galloping back all the way from the city gate, already covered in sweat.

"Zheng Laoqi! Explain yourself clearly!" the Zheng family head shouted, "What do you mean by 'attacking'? Could Bai Niangniang Temple possibly send troops to attack Lingzhou City?"

"Family Head! They are attacking!" Zheng Laoqi quickly said, "This morning, they divided their forces into two groups. One group was Bai Niangniang personally taking action, riding a large turtle, capturing a softshell turtle demon in Xiping County, and did not come here."

"The one attacking is the other group."

"This group is led by Xu Daoren, with a cat demon known as the Night Watchman of the Niangniang Temple as the vanguard, and has killed its way from Jiangjia Village to outside Lingzhou City!"

"Killed its way from Jiangjia Village?" The Wang family head's eyes widened instantly.

Jiangjia Village!

Was that the place where the Pheasant King was located?

Upon further inquiry, Xu Chengxian and his party had beheaded the Pheasant Demon in Jiangjia Village, chopped down the White Fox Demon in Fushui Town, and destroyed the Fire Crow Monster in Wudong County.

Now they had arrived in Lingzhou City.

"So they really did kill their way over," the Zheng family head murmured.

The most powerful demon kings among the several arrangements had all been killed cleanly.

Crack!

Boom!

A thunderclap exploded, startling his heart to jump.

It also made him suddenly realize something even more shocking.

"Wait! Zheng Laoqi!" The Zheng family head's eyes stared fixedly at Zheng Laoqi, "When did you say they set off from Songjia Village?"

"This morning! Family Head!" Zheng Laoqi shouted, "This morning, after the city gate opened, the Prefect pulled grain from the mansion to provide disaster relief, and I followed him."

As soon as the thin porridge was cooked, someone from Wudong County came shouting, calling the villagers to go back and move grain.

The county government office had been burned down by a demon.

The demon had been killed by the Night Watchman.

The county government granary was burned down, and some of the grain had to be distributed to the people first.

After asking carefully and knowing what had happened, he quickly ran back to report.

"That's not right, we have to send someone to verify," the Wang family head frowned, his face looking ugly, but he still refused to believe it was true, and still struggled to say, "Those people, maybe they want to…"

"Lord Wang, the people who came are not just from Wudong County," Zheng Laoqi quickly said. "The people from Jiangjia Village and Fushui Town also came together!"

If he hadn't asked so many people, and they all said the same thing, and if he hadn't seen a few of them in Jiangjia Village before, he wouldn't have dared to rush into the main courtyard and shout.

As soon as the Zheng family head heard him say he had seen them in Jiangjia Village, he knew it was the truth.

Jiangjia Village was a small dock, and small flower boats that often ran single trips would dock there.

Some of the retainers and servants in the mansion, greedy for novelty, would go there for pleasure.

"Quickly, invite the enshrined ones!"

Thinking of this, he no longer questioned him, and directly shouted loudly for the butler to come over and ask him to invite people from the ancestral hall.

When the Wang family head and the Sima family head saw this, they understood his meaning, and also asked people to go home and send messages to their own enshrined ones.

The others had come to their door.

Whether they wanted to fight or make peace, they had to show their stance first.

Otherwise, if the other party saw that they could defeat them in one fell swoop, even if they originally had the intention to talk, it would turn into swallowing the benefits alone.

But the other party had successively beheaded several powerful demon kings.

Could their own enshrined ones block such a powerful existence?

The hearts of the three were hanging in the air.

If they didn't know that cultivators wouldn't casually kill ordinary mortals, they would have wanted to hitch a ride and run for their lives.

"Have they entered the city?" Sima De asked at this time.

This was of course asking about the people from Bai Niangniang Temple.

"Not yet, still outside the city," Zheng Laoqi said.

"They came so quickly, but they didn't immediately enter the city?" He frowned, turned to look at the Zheng family head and the Wang family head, "Brother Zheng, Brother Wang?"

They didn't immediately break in.

In his opinion, the meaning conveyed was very clear.

"The other party has left room for negotiation."

Which meant they could talk.

And the previous successive beheadings of several powerful demons were to show their strength.

To make them understand that they had to offer enough sincerity.

This display of force was not only for them to see, but more for the people behind them, and the cultivation world forces involved in leading this matter to see.

"Brother Sima, then let's do as we agreed before!" The Wang family head said first, "Let's give up a share of the pie to this Bai Niangniang Temple."

"Good!" The Zheng family head nodded.

Then, he raised his head to look at the distant horizon, frowning and saying, "Making such a commotion is really frightening!"

"Family Head, I don't think this is a commotion deliberately made by the other party," Zheng Laoqi said cautiously.

"Hmm?"

"According to what those people said, this is the Night Watchman of the Bai Niangniang Temple, General Mao Shijiu, undergoing a thunder tribulation!"
