113: Disband the family
Moreover, it must be said that the cause of this incident was his own son.
He exposed the treasure qi spring eye and destroyed the Great Formation of the entire city.
This caused tens of thousands of people in the city to turn into statues, and among them were many Cultivators from the Blood Fiend Alliance!
This time, it really couldn't be covered up any longer!
The Old Man in Black Robe felt a chill in his heart, his thoughts racing.
One word came to mind: "Run!"
Only by running was there a way to survive; only by running could he preserve his Bloodline and his Family!
The Old Man in Black Robe hurriedly returned to his Family and found his steward, a fifty or sixty-year-old Cultivator at the Late Foundation Establishment Stage.
"Notify everyone to hold a meeting!"
After receiving the order, the steward began to notify everyone.
The first to return was Fierce Blood Heaven, covered in blood.
He asked suspiciously, "Dad! What happened?"
"I just saw a tremor in the city!"
"Did something go wrong with the Great Formation again?"
The Old Man in Black Robe looked furious: "Go, let's go to the treasure vault first!"
"Take as much as you can! Take as much as you can!"
"We are going to abandon this place!"
Fierce Blood Heaven was greatly shocked, the fear in his heart impossible to hide.
Even his father's Golden Core Stage cultivation base couldn't suppress the situation; they had to run!
What about him?
His heart was filled with self-reproach: "Dad! Is this matter no longer containable?"
The Old Man in Black Robe did not respond, only leading Fierce Blood Heaven to the Family treasure vault.
The guard inside the treasure vault was the previous Clan Chief.
The Old Man in Black Robe didn't say much, only stating that the city's Great Formation had been breached and the treasure qi spring eye at the center of the Formation was gone!
It had been taken away, and their Family might suffer.
The only way to survive now was to act before the Blood Fiend Alliance above reacted.
Disband the entire Family, and they might still be able to preserve a sliver of their Bloodline!
A hint of gloom flashed in the previous Clan Chief's eyes: "Do as you say!"
"I'll take half of the things inside!"
"Let's leave separately in a while!"
The previous Clan Chief, looking somewhat dejected, used his Divine Sense to take one last look at the entire Family!
Then, he made up his mind and entered the treasure vault, beginning to collect all the treasures on the right side into his Storage Pouch.
Including the Ore in the boxes and the shelves displaying the treasures; he didn't miss a thing!
The Old Man in Black Robe began collecting from the left side, the two of them clearly dividing the work, half for each.
Fierce Blood Heaven just packed whatever he saw, his speed nowhere near as fast as the two Golden Core Cultivators!
In less than the time it takes to burn an incense stick, the treasure vault was emptied.
The previous Clan Chief stepped on an escape light and flew towards the north.
The Old Man in Black Robe instructed his son: "Tian'er! In the future, when Father is not by your side, you must take care of yourself!"
"Do not force yourself in everything, and do not be the one to stick your head out!"
"Think thrice before acting; without Father there to protect you, everything will rely on yourself!"
"Remember, from now on, prioritize saving your life!"
"Also, if you escape, change your name and live the rest of your life in anonymity!"
"If you manage to reach the Golden Core Stage, you can try to find the others!"
After speaking, he patted his son's shoulder.
Fierce Blood Heaven was moved, his nose sore: "Dad! You too!"
"Take care!"
"If I achieve success in my cultivation, how should I contact you?"
The Old Man in Black Robe's eyes flashed as he pondered: "In the territory of the Treasure Pavilion, others can sell us out if they have enough Spirit Stones!"
"Tianji Pavilion belongs to the Righteous Path; it is not suitable for us to Cultivate there!"
"We can't stay in the Blood Fiend Alliance's territory anymore!"
"Then the only option is to go to the Loose Cultivator Alliance in the north!"
"Everyone there is a Loose Cultivator."
"There should be those who Cultivate Blood Path Cultivation Techniques as well, so when we go there, we won't stand out too much!"
"Just go to the main city of the Loose Cultivator Alliance, Cold Moon City; it should be easy to encounter others at the Golden Core Stage there!"
Fierce Blood Heaven nodded heavily: "Okay! Dad! Let's meet at Cold Moon City in the Loose Cultivator Alliance!"
After saying this, he stepped on his Flying Sword and flew into the sky.
However, standing on the Flying Sword, he looked back repeatedly, feeling somewhat sorrowful as he looked at the place where he had grown up.
The Old Man in Black Robe composed his emotions, his sharp gaze suddenly shooting out, his face covered in frost as he stood at the main entrance of the Family ancestral hall, waiting.
In about the time it takes to burn an incense stick, the Cultivators in the Family returned to the ancestral hall one after another.
The cold voice of the Old Man in Black Robe reached everyone's ears.
"This time, our Family has committed a grave mistake!"
"Previously, because the Great Formation was damaged, it attracted thieves!"
"Just now, someone sneaked underground and broke the Great Formation of Blood Dragon City!"
"Our Family has lived here for thousands of years, generation after generation!"
"All just to guard the Great Formation of Blood Dragon City, but this time, the Great Formation has been compromised!"
"Our entire Family has no way to answer to the Blood Fiend Alliance above!"
"I believe you all know the situation regarding the Blood Fiend Alliance!"
"This time, it is possible that we will be wiped out!"
"Therefore, I have decided here to disband the Family!"
"This way, we can still preserve a sliver of our Bloodline."
"If we move the whole Family, if we are caught up with, there won't be a single spark left!"
After the Old Man in Black Robe finished speaking, intense discussion began below.
The entire ancestral hall was filled with panic, unease, fear, and anger.
The Old Man in Black Robe just watched quietly, watching everyone vent their dissatisfaction.
Someone among them suggested: "Can we follow the Clan Chief and act together?"
The Old Man in Black Robe shook his head and said slowly: "I have to run for my life too!"
"When I am running for my life, I cannot look after you!"
"Moreover, as the Clan Chief of the Family, I will receive special attention!"
"Perhaps there are Golden Core Stage Cultivators everywhere coming to catch me?"
"It is more dangerous for you to follow me!"
At this moment, the people below looked at the Old Man in Black Robe in terror, feeling that what the Clan Chief said made a lot of sense.
Some people had already gone out to start packing their luggage.
Seeing any items in the Family, they began to collect them into their Storage Pouch!
The Old Man in Black Robe just watched quietly, waiting until most of the people in the ancestral hall had left.
He then turned around and collected all the spirit tablets from the hall into his Storage Pouch.
Stepping on his Flying Sword, he headed north, his target being the territory of the Tianji Pavilion.
It was the closest distance to travel to the Loose Cultivator Alliance in the north!
He hoped to escape before the Blood Fiend Alliance reacted!
As for the other Cultivators of the Family, it would depend on their fate.
He was the main wanted criminal, so everyone's eyes would definitely be on him.
The people of his Family, perhaps not even one in ten would survive!
Gu Changan did not know what had happened in Blood Dragon City.
He had just emerged from a spatial rift, and the scenery before him was still a blood-colored forest.
The plants and shrubs were slightly reddish, and the soil on the ground was dark brown.
It seemed that no accidents had occurred!
A distance of a thousand miles was still within the territory of the Blood Fiend Alliance; he just didn't know which direction from Blood Dragon City he had been teleported to.
Gu Changan took out the map he had previously confiscated; within a thousand miles in any direction of Blood Dragon City, there were simply no important cities!
