Under One Person, Golden Light Transforms into God
Chapter 472 Clan Land
"Master Shi! Alas!"
Liu Ping sighed. He knew that Shi Xiang was heartbroken over the death of his disciple and had acted irrationally.
But these past few days, whose household hasn't been like that?
During the day, he witnessed several of his brothers die.
The most urgent task now is to endure this pain and wait for the rescue to arrive before making the elderly man with white venom pay the price with his blood!
However, Shi Xiang and those who were willing to follow him clearly did not think that way.
Liu Ping hurriedly dressed and arrived at the hall, where all the family heads, sect leaders, and disciples were present.
A quick glance revealed that there were about a hundred people, which was the entire force of the corpse-driving lineage at present.
"Brother Liu, Patriarch Shi has led Sect Leader Zhao, Patriarch Sun, and Patriarch Ma to break through the encirclement. We..."
"I think we should take a gamble. This is a golden opportunity, and we shouldn't miss it!"
"Patriarch Liu, being trapped like this is worse than death. With so many of us, we might still have a chance!"
As they talked, their resolve to make a decision gradually solidified.
Gao Di is the head of a family and a faction. Although he doesn't have many people under his command, his legacy continues.
Who would have thought that today, like pigs and dogs, we would be trapped in this tiny place, barely clinging to life?
Many people also agree with Shi Xiang, feeling that Liu Ping is too weak and cowardly, not even daring to put up a fight.
Liu Ping asked softly, "Why is the White Zombie Old Man called the White Zombie Old Man?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the hall fell silent, and the resolute intent was swept away.
Yes, the reason why the White Zombie Old Man has this title is because he has more than one White Zombie in his possession!
Invulnerable to swords and spears, possessing immense strength, and most outrageously, having mastered magic, he is a legendary zombie recorded in the lineage of corpse-driving!
To put it bluntly, once the White Zombie Elder releases the White Zombie, no one present can stop him!
"There are more of us!"
"Yes, Brother Liu, there are many of us."
Liu Ping sighed helplessly. With so many of them, wouldn't the White Zombie Old Man have fewer zombies?
There must be at least ten zombies, plus a large number of walkers; otherwise, why would they have chosen to huddle together with over a hundred people?
"And Brother Liu, don't forget, we organized a breakout during the day and sent Yan Yan and Yang Ren out. Old Man Bai Jiang probably didn't expect there would be a second breakout tonight!"
"Master Shi's actions may seem reckless and impulsive, but they might just turn the tide!"
Some among the crowd were still unwilling to give up, and Liu Ping could only smile bitterly.
The elderly man with white venom might not have thought of this.
To place one's hopes on the opponent's negligence is an extremely foolish act!
Buying lottery tickets in the hope of winning only costs a few dollars, but failing to win can be a life-altering experience!
Liu Ping could only manage a wry smile.
At this moment, Yang Hongguang stepped forward and said, "Please be quiet and listen to me."
The people in the room didn't quiet down much; at most, they became a little quieter.
Yang Hongguang said in a deep voice, "The White Zombie Elder controls a vast horde of corpses. He broke through once during the day, so he probably won't be careless. On the contrary, he will be even more vigilant. I hope everyone will think about this carefully."
It's much quieter now.
Yang Hongguang sighed: "The Shi family head and the others are indeed worthy of respect for their courage in breaking through the encirclement, but for us, holding our ground in the Liu family's ancestral land is the best choice!"
“Patriarch Yang, you don’t need to make excuses for us. Patriarch Shi made it very clear last night that Sect Leader Zhao and Patriarch Sun responded. The reason we’re still here is simply because we dare not!”
"I don't agree with what you're saying. What do you mean by 'dare' or 'dare'? I'm just looking for a foolproof plan."
"Don't assume we're the ones who wouldn't dare!"
With all the disciples watching, and each family head and sect leader showing no sign of weakness, how could they possibly admit it?
Suddenly, the hall was filled with noise.
Liu Ping shook his head secretly and asked softly, "Brother Yang said that holding our ground is the best option. What is your reasoning?"
Upon hearing this, the noisy crowd immediately fell silent.
The debate over whether or not to dare was an unexpected situation. Patriarch Yang said it was the best choice, but what was his reasoning?
Yang Hongguang hesitated for a moment, looking at the low morale of the group, and sighed inwardly. He then said loudly, "Please think carefully about what will happen if we also break through with Patriarch Shi and succeed?"
"Successfully breaking through is naturally..."
The patriarch who had spoken shut his mouth.
Don't be fooled by their fierce arguments; none of them are stupid. Do they think that breaking through is all they need to do?
How can it be!
That would inevitably lead to the White Zombie Elder hunting him down!
Without the protection of the array at the Liu family's ancestral land, that white zombie could kill people as easily as playing with them.
I can't believe how utterly wretched and terrifying that scene must have been.
By holding onto our ancestral lands, we can at least maintain a degree of safety for a short time, and there is still hope that reinforcements will arrive.
Who would want to break through unless absolutely necessary? And even if they succeed, they would still have to face even more severe challenges, so it's better to stay here obediently.
"Brother Yang is right."
“Patriarch Yang is right, it’s exactly what I was thinking.”
"So we're just going to stand by and watch the Shi family head and the others..."
The family head, who was on good terms with the few who broke through the encirclement, hesitated.
Yang Hongguang laughed and said, "That's why I said that staying put is the best option. Think about it again, if Patriarch Shi successfully breaks through, he will definitely spread the news, which will increase our chances of being rescued! And at that time, the White Zombie Elder..."
Yang Hongguang remained silent, but everyone present began to move.
Liu Ping sighed with emotion, "The Shi family head and the others are truly righteous!"
All the sect leaders, disciples, and students were deeply moved.
Yang Hongguang didn't finish his sentence, but everyone understood.
If the Shi family head and his group successfully break through, the White Zombie Elder will most likely split his forces to pursue them. As soon as the White Zombie Elder splits his forces, the pressure on their side will be greatly reduced.
"Master Shi, we must break through this encirclement!"
"The old man with the white zombie physique won't be able to keep going for long!"
Everyone was deeply moved. Liu Ping had already called Yang Hongguang and quietly left the hall. A family head noticed, but did not say anything.
From a high vantage point in the Liu family ancestral land, the two men looked out into the distance. By the dim starlight cast by the night sky, they indeed saw the Shi family head and his disciples fighting against the walking corpses lying in ambush nearby.
The zombies moved like the wind, fearless of death, but the Shi family head and others were not made of clay. They each used their own methods, and every now and then a zombie would fall down.
They seem to have the upper hand, and their chances of breaking through are not low.
Watching the group steadily breaking free from the encirclement of zombies, Liu Ping's gaze was deep: "Brother Yang, as you said, I sincerely hope that Patriarch Shi and the others can escape."
Yang Hongguang's expression was not optimistic, and he sighed, "Brother Liu, you know, I just don't want people's morale to be low."
If breaking through were so easy, so many members of the Liu family wouldn't have died during the day.
Liu Ping paused for a moment, then said, "I know."
As soon as he finished speaking, something strange happened.
The Shi family head and his group were steadily breaking through the encirclement of the zombies when two zombies suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
How terrifying are zombies at night?
Humanoid tanks are not an exaggeration at all!
The surrounding zombies parted to create a path, and two zombies, like leaves swept by a whirlwind, appeared and impaled two disciples on the left and right, killing them instantly.
A scream rang out, enraging the Shi family head, and a veiled disciple beside him crashed into him.
As the veil fell away, it was revealed that he was also a zombie!
Liu Ping, who had been observing, suddenly had a thought: "The Shi family head actually has a zombie in his possession. Perhaps he really can break through."
Zombies are already the pinnacle of the corpse-driving tradition!
Owning one of these corpses gives one considerable influence within the corpse-driving lineage.
The old man with the white zombie had no fewer than ten zombies, and no one knew where he got them from. Yang Hongguang frowned and said, "If he had taken out this zombie during the day, your Liu family would have suffered far fewer casualties."
Liu Ping's expression changed slightly, but he remained silent.
During the day, in order for Liu Yanyan and Yang Ren to break through and seek support, Liu Ping also had to give an explanation to everyone present. The Liu family risked the extinction of its lineage and paid the price of the deaths of many core members in order to barely send the two away.
If the head of the Shi family had brought out the zombie back then, the Liu family would have lost at least two fewer key figures!
……
The Shi family chief's zombie held off one of them, while the Shi family chief and others worked together to fight the other. The group fought and retreated, and several more fell down, leaving them with less than ten people.
But the sacrifice was not in vain. In Liu Ping and Yang Hongguang's sight, the group was almost out of sight. They had retreated at least a thousand meters!
"The White Zombie Elder has not yet appeared, could it be..."
Before the words were finished, a shadow with a full head of white hair swept towards the Shi family head and the others like the wind.
The head of the Shi family's pupils dilated violently as he commanded the zombies to pounce.
With a casual sweep of his hand, the shadow sliced the zombie in two, as easily as handling trash. With a flick of his fingers, he stabbed two disciples in the throat, causing blood to spurt out.
The white figure opened its blood-red maw and drank the blood!
Everyone trembled, and some even collapsed to the ground, recalling the scene yesterday when the Liu family's experts were wantonly slaughtered by this white figure.
Seeing his zombie being swept in two, the Shi family patriarch roared in fury, "No!!!"
If a disciple dies, they can be trained again. But if this zombie is gone, it's like their lineage has suffered a devastating blow.
However, at this moment, they are all insignificant matters.
The head of the Shi family couldn't care less about anyone else. Although he was extremely grieving, his fear of the white figure outweighed his grief.
Therefore, the head of the Shi family abandoned the other family heads and disciples, hoping they could hold off Bai Pian for a moment, and ran away as fast as he could, his will to survive was truly moving.
However, the white figure slaughtered everyone in very little time.
The various secret techniques of the corpse-driving lineage were no more than a tickle to Bai Ying.
The white figure was like a ghost, and though it was dozens of feet away, it was only a few feet away, following closely behind.
The Shi family head's frantic running suddenly stopped, as ten sharp armor blades had already pierced his chest.
A few breaths passed.
Then the Shi family head and the others fell completely silent.
……
Liu Ping and Yang Hongguang, who were far away, lost their voices. Their white-haired shadows were more terrifying than the deepest nightmares!
This is no longer a zombie, this is a monster!
How on earth did the White Zombie Old Man create such a corpse demon?
'Ding-a-ling~~'
A light, melodious bell rang out from a kilometer away, and both Liu Ping and Yang Hongguang felt their hearts tighten.
The white figure that was devouring human blood in the distance immediately dropped the corpse and stood beside one of the people.
The old man was hunched over, emaciated, and his face was covered with lividity. No one who saw him would think he was a good person.
With a sidelong glance, his gaze seemed to pierce through the distance between them, landing on Liu Ping and the other man.
Their blood seemed to have frozen.
Four words flashed through their minds: 'The White-Bodied Old Man!'
……
The night was long.
Not long ago, a zombie barged in, and everyone worked together to eliminate it.
However, the sight of the Shi family head's head rolling off sent a chill down everyone's spine.
Liu Ping and Yang Hongguang arrived at the quiet room.
Liu Ping said quietly, "With such a monster around, the Shi family head and the others did not die unjustly."
Even now, the image of the white-faced old man still trembles in my heart.
Yang Hongguang was puzzled: "Although he has some connection with our corpse-driving lineage, it's all ancient history. Why does he want to exterminate our corpse-driving lineage?"
He told outsiders that it was a member of the Quanxing gang going crazy, but this question had been puzzling him all along.
Even if he's acting crazy, the old man with the white zombies should think about what benefits he'd get from killing them.
Yang Hongguang really couldn't figure out the answer.
Liu Ping said, "Brother Yang, you should ask the old man Bai Jiang. You can't find him by yourself. However, I agree with what Patriarch Shi said."
Yang Hongguang was startled: "You mean, there really is a traitor inside!"
Liu Ping's expression was gloomy: "That's right, all of this is too much of a coincidence. Just one point, how did the White Zombie Elder know the exact time?"
At Father's birthday banquet, the members of the Corpse-Driving Clan should come to offer their congratulations. After all, the Corpse-Driving Clan has declined to this point, and they should unite more closely.
Despite the Shi family head's lack of respect for him yesterday, the two actually have a good relationship in private; it's just that the Shi family head was blinded by greed.
However, there are many doubts surrounding this.
First of all, this is an internal matter of the corpse-driving lineage and has not been publicized.
Secondly, depending on the closeness of the relationship, the heads of families and sects who came to offer their congratulations would leave at an appropriate time.
As it turned out, the old man with the white zombie arrived precisely at the exact moment when everyone had arrived and hadn't left yet, as if he had calculated it perfectly.
Liu Ping would never believe there wasn't something fishy going on here.
A dark glint flashed in Yang Hongguang's eyes: "Who could it be?"
Liu Ping instructed, "Don't tell anyone yet, lest it cause unrest."
"It's natural."
The voice just fell.
"Walking zombies! There are walking zombies! The White Zombie Elder is attacking!"
Liu Ping sighed inwardly. Tonight was destined to be long, so he dared not be negligent and hurriedly went to preside over the clan's formation.
The night is the stage for zombies. Every time the old white zombie commands the horde to attack, several people on their side lose their lives.
……
Meanwhile, the disciples patrolled in groups of three, guarding against an attack from the White Zombie Elder.
Under the dim moonlight, two corpses lay on the ground.
Liu Xiuyun, still alive, pulled a peach wood sword from a walking corpse, looked at the approaching zombie, and roared, uttering his truest feelings: "Yan Yan, I've asked. Although I am your cousin, we are three generations apart!"
Knowing that running away was futile, he was determined to stab the zombie twice with his sword, so he charged forward with unwavering resolve.
The peach wood sword pierced the zombie's body, and then the zombie closed its eyes tightly.
A moment later, the pain of not being torn apart came.
He opened his eyes with a tremor and saw a grinning face: "Xiu Yun, you think you're worthy of competing with me for Yan Yan?"
"You're talented!"
The zombie's head rolled off, and its eerie aura immediately dissipated, revealing the face of a middle-aged man with a square jaw.
"Uncle Lin Zheng!"
"Senior Lin Zheng!"
"Master Lin Zheng!" (End of Chapter)
