Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

Chapter 392: Chapter 207: The Array Shattered, Catastrophe Descends!

To move the Imperial Extreme Tripod surely requires sacrifices, but definitely not so many.

The Wushi Puppet surely wants to take advantage of this opportunity and make a big profit.

The three hundred demon caves in the Southern Border, the late-stage Fetal Breathing Realm demon beasts are the core forces in each demon cave. If he wants to obtain so many, he certainly has to engage in a deadly battle with one of the demon caves.

But now he can sit back and reap the benefits by using the Yin Corpse Sect and Great Witch Mountain Demon Cave.

But even knowing this, he has no way to refuse.

His gaze turned to the Celestial Fox Demon King.

After the two exchanged glances, the Celestial Fox Demon King pondered for a moment before speaking, ”If that’s the case, then we can only pick a soft target to strike.”

”However, this matter still requires Fellow Daoist Ou and your sect’s disciples to lend a helping hand.”

Ou Chang nodded: ”We should not delay, let’s each go back and prepare.”

Having reached an agreement, the three figures each turned into streaks of light disappearing into the vast mountains.

...

Yunshui City.

The ancient Bronze Tower Ship landed outside the manor.

When a group of four disembarked from the ship, Shen Wenxing and others were already waiting at the door.

After exchanging pleasantries, Huang Lingxiu and others first supported Hu Yufen into the backyard.

Shen Wen’an and the three others followed Shen Wenxing into the guest room.

”Brother, has something happened?”

”There seem to be more cultivators in the city.”

After sitting down, Wei Qiuling asked in confusion.

Shen Chongming also looked at his father curiously.

He had seen many cultivators in the city who were previously stationed at the mountain front lines, but he didn’t know why they were all reassigned to Yunshui City.

Facing everyone’s gaze, Shen Wenxing said solemnly, ”Indeed, a major event occurred during your absence.”

After briefly recounting what happened with the Void Combination Corridor Array, Shen Wenxing solemnly stated, ”Father has ordered that the Shen Family must ’avoid bloodshed, refine oneself, and await heavenly insights’ in the upcoming period.”

Having said this, he looked at Wei Qiuling and said, ”Recently, Chongxuan personally sent secret letters to the Vajra Sect, Celestial Talisman Sect, and several other Immortal Sects.”

”Although, based on current observations, the Vajra Sect and other Immortal Sects don’t seem to care much. Over at Luoxia Mountain...”

Upon hearing this, Wei Qiuling pondered for a long time without speaking.

If Shen Wenxing’s account is accurate, a great disaster seems imminent.

However, the various Immortal Sects have operated in Yangnao Land for decades, and it’s hard for them to easily abandon everything just because of an uncertain message.

”Since Father is so cautious, I will discuss this matter immediately with my master over at Luoxia Mountain.”

”In any case, major actions should be avoided for now, but we need to prepare responsive strategies in case the Southern Border indeed attacks.”

Shen Wenxing nodded and then looked at Shen Chongming: ”For now, I’ll leave the family affairs to you. I’m going to retreat again to enhance my cultivation.”

”Hmm?” Hearing this, Shen Chongming was momentarily stunned before laughing and saying, ”Father, shouldn’t it be me improving my cultivation?”

”Your talent isn’t as good as mine.”

Shen Wenxing jokingly scolded: ”Sure, my talent isn’t as good as yours, but the Shen Family respects the elderly and loves the young. The dangerous endeavors... only when your father has perished in battle will it be your turn.”

Shen Chongming pursed his lips and muttered, ”So... does that mean we wait for Grandpa to go first?”

Bam!

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Wenxing slammed the table and glared: ”That’s your father’s father. With your father and third uncle around, can he suddenly take the charge?”

”No more nonsense, this is decided!”

Shen Wenxing said, turning to Shen Wen’an and spoke solemnly: ”Wen’an, even if I fight to the death, my current strength isn’t guaranteed to protect the Shen Family.”

”This burden... will still heavily rely on you.”

Shen Wen’an slightly nodded: ”Be assured, as long as I live, the Shen Family will have no issue.”

The two brothers looked at each other with a knowing smile.

After a moment of silence, Shen Wenxing spoke again.

”By the way, there is another matter.”

”Your second brother and second sister-in-law passed early, and Chongxuan and Chonghong’s son Xiuyun are the same age.”

”Now Chonghong and Hong Xiu’s son Xiuyun can run around, but Chongxuan still hasn’t settled.”

”This child is silent and reserved, always keeping matters to himself.”

Shen Chongming realized and nodded slightly.

”Xuan brother certainly is of age to marry. Has Father asked him if there’s a woman he fancies?”

Shen Wenxing sighed.

”In my presence, this child only nods obediently and never speaks beyond business matters.”

”I mentioned it today, hoping you could inquire.”

”With the impending disaster, it’s better to let him leave a descendant for your second uncle’s lineage.”

Upon hearing this, Wei Qiuling took over the topic, ”Should we inform Sister Mei’Er?”

”Chongxuan highly respects her?”

Of Shen Wenyan and Zhao Xuan’s two sons, Shen Chongxu has particular animosity towards Hu Mei’Er and Shen Li.

However, Shen Chongxuan is much better, showing great respect for the aunt and affection for his sister Shen Li.

”This matter was discussed with Mei’Er by your big sister-in-law not long ago.”

”However, since her arrival at the Shen Family, Mei’Er hasn’t stepped outside even once, asking us to handle it.”

Shen Wenxing sighed heavily.

”Mei’Er only says, don’t wrong the child, and ensure he finds a pleasing lady.”

The implication is clearly about avoiding Shen Chongxuan repeating his father’s fate.

After thinking it through, Shen Chongming replied: ”I’ll take responsibility for this.”

”If brother Xuan does have a loved one, even if she’s an ordinary person without a Spirit Root, I hope Father and Third Uncle don’t object.”
