Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family

Chapter 232 The Dust Settles! A 10-Year Promise!_3

This situation was somewhat prideful, which was quite normal.

"Damn it!"

"Big brother!"

"Ancestor! We might as well fight them to the death!"

The people of Bi Lake Mountain shouted toward Yu Ninghu, their expressions either anguished and furious or panicked and desperate!

Except for a few senior members, most of them only had the cultivation level of the Qi Refinement initial or middle stages.

Under the might of the great formation, the Qi, blood, and spiritual power within their bodies surged turbulently.

If this continued, they were certain to die.

Now, with the death of their family ancestor and his body suspended before them.

And them, facing the enemy, could not even talk of revenge, let alone fight back or resist, how could they not be angry or desperate!

"Boom boom boom——"

The Bi Water Azure Sky Great Formation, under the assault of Ling Zixiao, Lu Changsheng, and others, kept making thunderous noises.

The dense mists and wandering runes and spiritual lights that enveloped it all dimmed considerably.

Under increasingly fierce attacks, the magic aura inside Yu Ninghu began to surge as well.

Looking at his own cultivators and younger generations struggling under the might of the formation, each with pale faces, disordered breaths, and vomiting blood, his face twisted, his fingernails piercing his palms until they bled, he suddenly raised his head and shouted at Ling Zixiao: "Stop!"

"Fellow Daoists, please stop... My Yu Family is willing to offer Bi Lake Mountain as compensation..."

Yu Ninghu's voice became extremely hoarse. Find adventures on empire

To hand over the ancestral foundation willingly, he was naturally reluctant.

But.

If people are lost without the land, both will be lost!

If the land is lost but people remain, both can be kept!

As long as the green hills are there, there's no fear of running out of firewood!

If today he could bring the other party down with him, he would naturally be willing to risk his life!

But now, facing Lu Changsheng and others, they had absolutely no strength to fight back.

At most, they could only make the opponent suffer some losses and be seriously injured!

Such anger, hatred, and desperation were meaningless!

"If that's the case, open the formation quickly!"

Upon hearing this, Ling Zixiao's expression was clear and sharp, and he said in a cold voice.

"Ning Hu!"

"Big brother!"

"Ancestor!"

The other Yu Family cultivators, hearing these words, all looked toward Yu Ninghu.

Some were sorrowful and furious!

Some were relieved and breathed a sigh of relief!

"I ask my fellow Daoists to make a Heart Demon oath."

"As long as my Yu Family is willing to offer Bi Lake Mountain as compensation, let this matter end here..."

Yu Ninghu's face was filled with bitterness, with unwilling tears in his eyes.

Lu Changsheng and Ling Zixiao exchanged glances.

Lu Yuanzhong and Bai Yunyang, hearing this, also stopped their assault.

Soon, the four made a Heart Demon oath.

They stated that if the Yu Family offered all the foundations of Bi Lake Mountain as compensation, the feud between the two families would thus be settled.

"Open the formation!"

Seeing that Lu Changsheng and Ling Zixiao and others had made Heart Demon oaths, Yu Ninghu gritted his teeth and shouted loudly at the people.

At this moment, even if some were reluctant, they could only follow the order.

"Boom!"

The Mountain Gate Grand Formation of Bi Lake Mountain was opened.

Immediately, Ling Zixiao stopped his assault and took out a Second Rank Spiritual Contract.

In Red Leaf Valley, they established a treaty, binding the Yu Family to commence the signing of the contract with Yu Ninghu.

It stated that, given their mutual grievances, today the Yu Family would offer Bi Lake Mountain as compensation to the Lu Family, to Lu Changsheng.

In return, the Lu Family would provide the Yu Family with a temporary residence at Xiao Jing Mountain.

The Yu Family must reside at Xiao Jing Mountain for ten years!

During this ten-year period, neither family may attack the other!

Additionally, the Yu Family must cooperate in transferring all the properties under the name of Bi Lake Mountain!

"This is impossible!"

Upon seeing the Spiritual Contract, the Patriarch of the Yu Family, Yu Ningyuan, immediately exclaimed loudly.

Now, by relinquishing Bi Lake Mountain, their Yu Family still had hopes of a resurgence, relying on the family's properties.

But once all the properties under Bi Lake Mountain were transferred, it would be exceedingly difficult for the Yu Family to rise again!

"Fellow Daoist, isn't this a bit too coercive?"

Yu Ninghu's expression was ugly as he addressed Lu Changsheng and Ling Zixiao, unwilling to sign such a contract.

Not only does his family have to confine themselves for ten years,

but they also have to cooperate in transferring family properties during these ten years.

It was tantamount to the family relinquishing their animosity and becoming a vassal to the Lu Family for ten years!

How could he possibly agree to such a thing!

"Yu Daoist friend, you now have no choice,"

Ling Zixiao said coldly.

After speaking, she laughed lightly and added, "Of course, we won't be too unreasonable. As long as your Yu Family cooperates, we can preserve some of your properties."

"Sigh!"

Yu Ninghu's eyes closed tightly as he took a deep breath and exhaled.

He knew that at this moment, his family no longer had any negotiating leverage.

Eventually, the two parties finalized the contract.

If the Yu Family cooperates within ten years, some of their properties can be retained.

Regarding the division of properties, those far from Bi Lake Mountain or in some smaller marketplaces would be given to the Yu Family.

However, properties around the Yu Family, like those in the Red Leaf Valley Market and the Nine Dragons Market, would all be transferred under the name of the Lu Family.

"But please grant us some time... to relocate,"

After signing the contract and handing over the control of the family's grand formation, Yu Ninghu looked completely drained, overwhelmed with weakness.

Even though he knew that his actions today were for the sake of preserving the family,

it was still difficult for him to face his ancestors after surrendering the family's ancestral lands and foundations on a silver platter.

"When you relocate, I hope none of you will do anything destructive,"

"After all, from today onwards, Bi Lake Mountain will be the spirit land of my lord husband!"

Ling Zixiao's pale and delicate features softened their chill, revealing a dignified and elegant demeanor as she spoke softly.

However, everyone who saw her demure form and frail appearance dared not underestimate her.

"My lord husband's spirit land?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Ninghu turned to look at Lu Changsheng.

He suddenly realized that he had misjudged the situation.

The Lu Family wasn't using the demand for Bi Lake Mountain as a spirit land to take the moral high ground and force his family into submission to seize their legacy.

Everything today was led by Lu Changsheng and the woman named Ling Zixiao.

It was Lu Changsheng who desired to take over their ancestral land and establish his own sect!

At this moment, regret surged through him!

He understood that if Lu Changsheng wanted to establish his own sect, he could have taken advantage of the grand formation not being activated earlier to negotiate terms with Lu Changsheng and Ling Zixiao.

Although he couldn't defeat people like Lu Changsheng,

he could have used the grand formation to sabotage his family's fishery, herb gardens, spirit fields, and spirit veins.

Lu Changsheng and Ling Zixiao certainly wouldn't want to receive a ruined and dilapidated Bi Lake Mountain!

But now, with everything settled, he had nothing more to say.
