Family Cultivation: Rise of the Wilderness

Chapter 307 Accusations
"what do you mean?"

Ding Chongji looked at Ouyang He with displeasure.

Ouyang He did not speak, but his attitude remained unwavering.

The Ouyang family's major mobilization this time was not solely for the elusive Enlightenment Spring.

They also came for the sake of the Manchu religion.

The Mang Sect not only cut off his arm, but also captured Ouyang Zhen.

This was an utter disgrace to the Ouyang family.

With so many people present, who knows if there are any remnants of the Mang cult?

The Ouyang family's method of dealing with enemies has always been to spare no one.

Even if the other party is a Foundation Establishment cultivator, or even a Golden Core cultivator!
The fact that Ding Chongji was allowed to leave directly was already a great concession to him.

As for Bai Zhenghu, a mere rogue cultivator, he must leave behind an explanation no matter what.

The same is true for most others.

Faced with the Ouyang family's domineering attitude, Bai Zhenghu's face turned ugly, but he did not resist. Instead, he said to Ding Chongji, "Fellow Daoist Ding, you should leave first."

Ding Chongji shook his head: "I am traveling with Fellow Daoist Bai, how can I just leave at this time?"

With that, he snorted coldly and stared directly at Ouyang He: "I'd like to see what the Ouyang family can do to us."

The people present came from all walks of life, including many leaders of their respective sects.

Although their status and position are far inferior to those of the Ouyang family's Foundation Establishment stage, they cannot even come close.

But that doesn't mean they have no influence whatsoever.

Nine Foundation Establishment cultivators—let alone whether the Ouyang family has the ability to wipe them all out.

Even if it were possible, if something were to happen to this group, it would cause a huge uproar in Hao County.

The cultivation world is based on the principle of the strong preying on the weak, and the Ouyang family is also used to bullying others by relying on their power, but that does not mean that Hao County has completely lost its order.

Back when the Mang Cult slaughtered the little-known Beihan Sect, the Hengyue Sect stood up for them.

Although there is no direct interest between the two, Hengyue Gate regards Hao County and even Zhangning Prefecture as its exclusive domain. They often use the banner of helping the weak to constantly attack any powerful forces that may emerge.

This not only builds prestige but also allows one to demonstrate strength at opportune moments and maintain their dominant position.

This is one of the strategies that Hengyue Sect has followed for hundreds of years.

Outsiders might not dare to offend the Ouyang family, but the Hengyue Sect is clearly not among them.

If the Ouyang family managed to devour nine Foundation Establishment cultivators in one go, it would be enough to demonstrate their strength.

However, this move will certainly not be tolerated by the Hengyue Sect.

It's one thing for the Ouyang family to act arrogantly and domineeringly in their own little corner of the world.

What was the purpose of killing so many Foundation Establishment cultivators from outside?
Do you want to disrupt the order of Hao County and challenge the authority of Hengyue Gate?

Ding Chongji had dealt with the Hengyue Sect quite a bit and was quite familiar with their style.

At this moment, I advise Bai Zhenghu to remain calm and observe the situation.

Trusting Ding Chongji, Bai Zhenghu nodded slightly and abandoned the idea of ​​forcibly breaking through.

Although in his view, Ouyang He was far from being able to stop him.

However, when looking at the Ouyang family, one cannot only look at the people in front of them, but must also consider the Golden Core cultivators behind them.

Otherwise, even if they run away, they will live in constant fear.

Yu Zhongliang and the others on the other side shared the same thought.

If it comes to a fight to the death, they might not be afraid of Ouyang Tai despite their large numbers.

But once a fight breaks out, no matter the outcome, they will be the losers.

The silence of the Foundation Establishment cultivators made the disciples below somewhat restless.

At this time, they were separated and guarded by the people brought by the Ouyang family.

It is undoubtedly a disgrace that one person could keep an eye on more than a dozen of them.

Without the sect leader's orders, none of them dared to act rashly.

One of the disciples from the Kongming Hall anxiously asked the sallow-faced youth, "Senior Brother Jiang, why did the Ouyang family still come?"

Jiang Qing frowned; he was also puzzled by this. Although it was Ouyang Zhen who had breached the Green Cloud Cave.

The arrival of the Ouyang family seemed to be a matter of course.

However, forces such as Xixing Village and Kongming Hall arrived one after another and occupied Green Cloud Cave for more than ten days, but the Ouyang family never showed up.

Everyone thought the Ouyang family had given up on the Enlightenment Spring.

I don't want them to make their appearance at the last minute.

Thinking of this, Jiang Qing sighed.

If his master had listened to him and left sooner, they wouldn't be in such a passive situation.

He turned to look at his junior brother beside him: "No matter what, the Enlightenment Spring has not yet appeared, and the Mang Sect demons left long ago. The Ouyang family will not do anything to us, but the disciples of Green Cloud Cave are suffering."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Ouyang family disciples shouted loudly and herded the captured Green Cloud Cave disciples together.

Upon learning of the current situation at Green Cloud Cave from Yu Zhongliang, Ouyang Tai flew into a rage.

He had come to kill the enemy and seize the treasure, but now he was told that there were no enemies, that the Mang Sect had long since fled, taking Ouyang Zhen with them; and that there were no treasures, that no one had ever seen the Enlightenment Spring.

Ouyang Tai was naturally very unwilling. He ordered people to go into the cave to check while he personally interrogated the disciples of Green Cloud Cave.

At this moment, Song Kui suddenly approached, but was stopped by the Ouyang family cultivators.

Song Kui immediately shouted, "I have been mingling in the Luoyang Mountains for many years and am quite familiar with this Green Cloud Cave. Senior Ouyang, if you have any instructions, Star-Absorbing Village is willing to serve you faithfully."

Song Kui's overtures immediately caught the attention of the Ouyang family.

Ouyang Tai turned around and gave him a cold look: "You recognize these people?"

Song Kuidui smiled and said, "I don't recognize them all, but I am very familiar with them."

As he spoke, Song Kui reached out and pulled Shao Zhen out from behind the disciples of the Star Absorbing Village.

Immediately, the captured Green Cloud Cave disciples erupted in uproar.

Someone asked in surprise, "What is Senior Brother Shao Zhen doing here?"

"Senior Brother? This scoundrel is a traitor!"

The person next to him spat.

The other person gritted his teeth and said, "That's right, Shao Zhen is mixed up with the Star Absorbing Village. He has clearly betrayed the Green Cloud Cave and now he wants to use us to gain merit."

Soon, the disciples of Green Cloud Cave were filled with indignation, and a chorus of curses erupted.

Only Zhang Min, her lips pale, stared intently at Shao Zhen, unable to utter a single word.

She had been lingering in the Green Cloud Cave for several days, but because of the great distance and the inconvenience of releasing her divine sense, she had no idea that Shao Zhen was also present with her naked eyes.

Although Shao Zhen's betrayal of Green Cloud Cave was a foregone conclusion, he had ultimately surrendered to Shan Yun Sect.

According to him, it was to bring a brighter future to Green Cloud Cave.

In retrospect, all of that was nonsense.

Shao Zhen didn't care about the survival of Green Cloud Cave, nor about the lives of his fellow disciples.

All he cared about was his own ambition.

Faced with so many hateful gazes, Shao Zhen's face twitched. He ignored the accusations from his former fellow disciples and respectfully said to Ouyang Tai, "The disciples of Green Cloud Cave are led by He Xuan and Mao Jingze. Both of them are true disciples of Fairy Green Cloud, and they are most likely to know the whereabouts of the Enlightenment Spring. In addition, Zhao Yue and Long Yang of Shanyun Sect, whose master is Fairy Green Cloud's junior sister, may also know..."

Before he could finish speaking, Long Yang suddenly stood up, glaring at him angrily: "Shao Zhen, you are utterly shameless."

However, Shao Zhen completely ignored the other party, and in no time, He Xuan, Mao Jingze, Zhao Yue, Long Yang, Yin Feng and other disciples of both factions with any status were all accused.

Including Zhang Min, who was once his Daoist partner!

Everyone felt a sense of powerlessness and could only glare at Shao Zhen with hatred.

Ouyang Tai squinted as he watched this scene.

At this moment, a Foundation Establishment cultivator who was even younger than Ouyang He emerged from the Green Cloud Cave.

Ouyang Tai glanced at him and asked, "Jue'er, how is it?"

Ouyang Jue shook his head: "Aside from a few disciples of the Star Absorbing Village, there is no one else in the cave."

Ouyang Tai's face turned grim. He immediately flew to He Xuan's side, placed a large hand on his head, and asked sternly, "Where is the Enlightenment Spring?"
