Because of the appearance of the monster in the south, Yun Mengze's practice world has become much more stable.
None of the four clans and the Lingyue Chamber of Commerce were willing to cause trouble at this time, and the casual cultivators did not dare to act rashly. Even if they had ideas, they would go south to risk their future.
However, such peaceful days did not last long.
The success of Wang Changsheng, the ancestor of the Wang family, in planting golden lotus made countless monks throughout Yunmengze breathe quickly and focus on that plain.
The appearance of a golden lotus cultivator was originally something that caused a lot of discussion in the Yunmengze cultivation community, but Wang Changsheng's breakthrough left everyone silent.
A golden lotus appears among the casual cultivators. The only way out is to be the same as in the three major cities. But other than that, it is not a golden lotus from four clans...
The last lesson learned was just a year ago.
So this time, all eyes fell on the Wang family, and on the Zhao family, which was above the Wang family.
"The influence of officials still appears."
As a witness to the official incident, Zhang Qing was naturally affected by what happened to the official family this year.
It can be said that it was not much different from what he had thought before leaving. As the Zhang family left without doing anything, many monks belonging to other strengths appeared on the official territory.
This also led to the disappearance of many officials and family members, and the destruction of the spiritual field resources known as ten thousand acres of fertile land.
Although Zhang Qing and the others left, the turmoil caused by the official family intensified among the four clans. Although the reputation was overshadowed by the disputes between several major families, the actual fighting was no less impressive.
Now more than a year has passed, and the official family's vitality has been severely damaged and they have to choose to retreat and give up many spiritual fields to maintain stability. .
And after all this time passed, it finally made others want to take a gamble.
The Wang family was the first to succeed.
Any sudden occurrence can be traced from the past. The appearance and death of the ancestor of the official family made Wang Changsheng of the Wang family make a choice after waiting for so long.
"If this matter occurs in the Zhang family, according to the family leader's philosophy, nothing will happen. But how will the Zhao family deal with it?"
Zhang Qing was a little curious. After all, the timing of the Wang family's golden lotus planting was perfect. It happened to be the invasion of demons and the disappearance of an ancestor of the Zhao family who planted golden lotus.
Will the Zhao family think too much? What is their attitude towards the people growing golden lotus down there?
No one knows, but luckily time will give us all the answers.
On the third day after Wang Changsheng successfully planted the golden lotus, he rushed to the southern front line. But other than that, there was no more movement in the entire Wang family and Zhao family.
"He survived."
Such surprise was the shocked expression of many casual cultivators in Yun Mengze, and it also made their eyes become as blazing as flames.
"Either the Zhao family believes that with one Wang Changsheng and one Wang family, they are still absolutely sure to suppress them, or the threat of demons forces the Zhao family to make compromises."
"No matter what the reason is, it means that Yun Mengze has changed. Since when?"
"Perhaps it was the moment when the Land of Clouds and Clouds appeared."
"The Zhao family is like this, but what about the other families? The Zhang family has Zhang Shenling, the Shui family has a water-breaking alchemy cultivator, the Gu family has no reaction, and the Jinlan Sect is still independent."
"Lingyue Chamber of Commerce probably wishes they could grow more Golden Lotus, but their foundation is too shallow."
As the Zhao family's reaction was conveyed in the form of actions, Yunmengze finally had the excitement that the birth of Golden Lotus should have.
For a time, there were countless discussions among many casual cultivators in the city.
"It's a pity, ancestor of the Guan family. If we didn't compete for the thirty-three days of opportunity, I'm afraid the Guan family would be the only force under the four clans and one chamber of commerce now."
"If you appear too early and die too late, the fate of the entire official family will be changed. I wonder what they are thinking now?"
"I'm afraid my intestines will turn green."
"Greed only causes trouble."
With the inevitable rise of the Wang family, the official family, which has been tested overtly and covertly in the past year, is once again brought to the surface, and they are pitted against each other between gloating and helpless regret.
In the following period, violent spiritual energy fluctuations were heard in many places in Yunmengze. Wang Changsheng's example made some old immortals unable to sit still.
However, none of these people who tried to grow golden lotus successfully appeared in front of everyone.
"How can that golden lotus be so easy to plant?"
In the Zhang family, Zhang Shenling looked at the blank scroll in front of him and couldn't help but shake his head.
"Send someone to send a congratulatory gift to the Wang family. After all, this can be regarded as Yun Mengze entering a new stage."
"In addition, we need to make some preparations..."
Zhang Shenling thought for a moment and then made a decision.
Yun Mengze's future is never determined by one person or one thing, but is affected by many characters and seemingly unrelated but closely connected events.
Four clans, him, Zhao Jingmu, Shui Che, Lingyue Chamber of Commerce, including the current demon in the south, Wang Changsheng...
Wait, wait, everyone will have an impact on the future, and among them, there will naturally be ghosts and demons.
Before Wang Changsheng planted the golden lotus, four clans had already predicted the coming crisis and began to recruit more monk seeds with spiritual roots in the mortal kingdom.
There is also the Lingyue Chamber of Commerce, a cultivator chamber of commerce that seems to be more powerful than the four major families. Now is the time when it needs manpower. Otherwise, how can it maintain its status and resources without being stretched?
Because the cultivation of monks takes time, many people in Yunmengze now cannot see what these big forces are doing.
But once something is done, the result is inevitable. Now I'm afraid there will be another Wang family.
When most of the children with spiritual roots in the Jiang Kingdom become practitioners, it will take a few decades at most, and the rules of the underworld will affect Yunmengze, recreating the chaos of more than two hundred years ago.
At that time, there will be a war for the spiritual roots, which will also be a huge factor affecting Yunmengze's future, even more directly than the monsters in the south today.
The casual cultivators muddle along and don't care if they can't see that far away, but as the head of the family, Zhang Shenling has to see it.
As a result, the recently bustling island in the center of the lake became deserted again.
Zhang Qing was also sent out to guard a city like many of his compatriots.
And as far as he knew, the head of the family had not had a single word of discussion with the Zhao family on this matter.
Qing Meng once again packed her large luggage. She had already passed the initial stage in the Zonglou and began to officially enter the practice of Qi training. She no longer had to report and study in the Zonglou every day. Reading books
"Second uncle, Linyuan City is not far from here."
"It's quite far for you now, but we won't waste too much time on the road."
Answering Qing Meng's question, Zhang Qing didn't feel much relaxed in his heart, but instead felt unimaginably solemn.
This decision, which seems to have nothing to do with the monks, may have the greatest impact among all the things Zhang Qing has experienced.
The spark that started a prairie fire did not ignite when the ancestor of the official family in Yunxia Land died. It did not ignite when the golden lotus was planted and roared by the Supreme Lord of Jinlan Sect. It also did not ignite after the Lingyue Chamber of Commerce appeared.
But now, he felt it.
Qing Meng's question not long ago, aren't the Zhang family and the Zhao family now mortal enemies, and should they target each other?
It wasn't the case before, no matter how many people died.
But now it is.
In the past, in Yunmengze, the Jinlan Sect occupied the wider world halfway up the mountainside of the cultivation world. The Zhao family controlled the mortal world at the foot of the mountain. There was an upper limit and a lower limit. Both parties firmly grasped the chips in their hands.
No matter how many things happened in Yunmengze, these two places were not touched.
But today, the Zhang family's decision completely changed Yun Mengze.
