BXBX NOVEL Chapter 122 - 122: Demonic Cultivator Attack
“A demonic cultivator?”
Shen Baifei and Shen Rushuang were stunned for a moment before their expressions changed.
Obviously, the two of them also realized this problem.
One had to know that as an old Violet Palace Realm immortal family, the number of mortals under their protection had long exceeded 50 million.
If at this moment, a demonic cultivator above the Violet Palace Realm wanted to attack the mortal city under the Shen Immortal Family, with the Shen Immortal Family’s current strength, they couldn’t do anything.
Once the mortals under the Shen Immortal Family were really massacred by demonic cultivators, it would undoubtedly cut off the roots of the Shen Immortal Family.
One had to know that the most important foundation of a cultivation family or sect was the mortals under their protection.
Only with enough mortals could children with spiritual roots be born, or even immortal seedlings with extraordinary cultivation talent.
Without this foundation, no matter how good the inheritance was or how many resources there were, no one could inherit it.
This might be less of an issue in the sects.
However, to a cultivation family with a long history, it was undoubtedly fatal.
At this moment, Shen Baifei and Shen Rushuang could not help but look worried.
Could it be that they really had to tell everything to their ancestor?
One had to know that they had yet to tell Shen Yuanlong, who was in seclusion, about Ancestor Mengxue’s death.
They really did not know how to put it.
If their ancestor found out about this and was overcome with grief, the huge Shen family would probably collapse.
“Why don’t we go find the family head?”
Shen Rushuang spoke hesitantly.
Hearing her words, Shen Baifei and Xiong Wandao immediately shook their heads.
“Absolutely not!”
After a pause, Shen Baifei continued,
“Now that the family head is in seclusion trying to break through to the Violet Palace Realm, whether he succeeds or not concerns the fate of the Shen Immortal Family for the next few hundred years.
At this time, unless there’s a calamity that will threaten our very existence, no one should disturb him.”
Buzz!
As soon as Shen Baifei finished speaking, the communication jade tokens on him, Xiong Wandao, and Shen Rushuang suddenly vibrated.
The expressions of the three people could not help but change slightly.
At a time like this, the fact that the three elders received a message at the same time meant that something big must have happened.
By the time the three of them finished reading the contents of the communication jade talisman, their faces had already turned ashen.
Shen Rushuang gritted her teeth and said angrily,
“Those bastards!”
Just now, a mortal city called White River City under the Shen Immortal Family was suddenly attacked by demonic cultivators.
In an instant, the 1.8 million people in the entire city became the targets of the demonic cultivators’ blood sacrifice.
Nothing like this would happen when the Shen family was at the peak.
Shen Rushuang immediately looked at Shen Baifei and said, “Third Uncle, we can’t take this lying down. Why don’t you let me and Elder Xiong go to White River City to take a look?”
If there are still demonic cultivators, we’ll definitely tear them into pieces!”
At this moment, Shen Rushuang, an alchemist who rarely participated in battles, had obviously lost her cool.
Shen Baifei suppressed his emotions and tried his best to calm himself down.
He glanced at Shen Rushuang and saw that her eyes were filled with anger. Then, he shook his head decisively.
“Shuang, you can’t go.
Stay here at the Splendid Jade Mountain and take charge of the situation. Elder Xiong and 1 will go to White River City to investigate.”
At this moment, he knew very well.
Once they left the Splendid Jade Mountain, they might face unexpected danger.
Even White River City might be a trap for them.
But they had no choice but to go.
If the Shen Immortal Family did not react at all to the fact a city under their jurisdiction was wiped out, what would the outside world think? What would many of their clansmen think?
Most importantly, if they ignored this matter, would it fuel the arrogance of those demonic cultivators?
What if they attacked their mortal city again?
Were they supposed to hide in the Splendid Jade Mountain and not do anything?
Just as Shen Baifei decided to head to White River City with Xiong Wandao to investigate the situation, on a hill 50 miles away from White River City.
Five cultivators surrounded by a bloody aura were paying close attention to the situation in White River City in the distance.
At this moment.
A short and fat man said, “Do you think the Shen family will send people to White River City?”
Hearing his words, a skinny old man immediately laughed strangely.
“Don’t worry. Based on my understanding of the Shen family, they will definitely send people to investigate this matter.
Besides, if they don’t come…”
As he spoke, blood suddenly appeared in the eyes of the skinny old man.
He said in an extremely cold voice, “We’ll continue to slaughter those mortals until they appear.”
On the other side, an enchanting woman chuckled and said, “Fellow Daoist Ku Rong is right. If the Shen family shrinks away, it will even be better.
There are so many mortal cities under the Shen family. If we can use them all to feed the blood sacrifice, 1 believe we can even break through to the Violet Palace Realm.
Of course…”
At this point, the enchanting woman’s expression gradually became serious.
“Don’t forget the true purpose of this mission. Attracting the Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the Shen family over is only the first step of our mission.
According to Senior Gu Ling’s requirement, luring that old fart out of seclusion is our end goal.
Don’t forget about this.”
Hearing the enchanting woman’s words, the expressions of the short and fat man, the skinny old man, and the others became slightly solemn.
Obviously, they knew that they were just bait to lure out the Shen family’s ancestor
Suddenly, the enchanting woman’s eyes narrowed.
The short and fat man and the others present also seemed to have sensed something. They instinctively turned their gazes in the direction of White River City.
There.
Two figures had already appeared.
They were Shen Baifei and Xiong Wandao, who had come to investigate.
At this moment.
The two of them looked at the apocalyptic scene in front of them and could not help but tremble.
“Beasts, they are all beasts!”
Xiong Wandao’s face was red from anger.
Just as he raised his head and was about to say something to Shen Baifei, Shen Baifei’s pupils suddenly constricted and his expression changed drastically.
“Be careful!”
