Trinity Traitor: From One Person to the Other

Chapter 227 Zhuge Xianglin: My family is also quite powerful

"Ah this..."

Zhuge Yunzhi's elder brother lost his temper with just one sentence.

Yes, although Samadhi Fire is difficult to cultivate, but in such a chaotic world, when killing is as easy as grass, the Wuhou Sect can still survive. As the head of the sect and the head of the family, Zhuge Xianglin must have some abilities.

Zhuge Xianglin was definitely able to use Samadhi True Fire. Not only that, but he also had a very deep level of attainment.

His control over the family is weak, not because he is too weak, but because others are too strong.

If this were to happen in modern times, Zhuge Xianglin would be much more capable than Zhuge Gong.

Of course, it won't cause any big waves.

Some people say that heroes are made by the times, while others say that heroes make the times. In fact, the two have always been complementary, promoting each other little by little, and spiraling upward.

The two are not in opposition.

In this era, why is it that Zhuge Xianglin, who is even more powerful, has insufficient control over his family? In addition to the fact that the others are also very strong, there is another point, that is, although the secular world has entered the Republic of China, the circle of extraordinary people is still feudal and ancient.

The wind of the new era did not blow in completely, but He Songling opened a gap.

If there were no He Songling, the current circle of extraordinary people would not be much different from that in the early and middle Qing Dynasty.

This situation resulted in the ancient large families and patriarchal clan system being deeply rooted. As the head of a family, he would not be able to subdue a large group of clan elders unless he was as strong as He Songling or the later Heavenly Master Zhang Zhiwei.

But in modern times, the alien community can no longer refuse to accept the changes of the times.

Just like mentioned in the Tang Sect chapter, a surveillance camera from others can save you decades of effort in refining magic tools, and it only costs 29.9 yuan on PDD with free shipping. Don’t you accept the change?
Modern hot weapons are no joke. The process of modernizing democratic countries is like a rolling wave that cannot be stopped.

Even strangers must abide by the law. Although due to special relationships, a state-owned enterprise called "Nadutong" was set up as a special law enforcement department, in the final analysis, everyone must accept management.

The feudal oppressive rules of the past, such as "imperial power does not extend to the countryside" and "family owners have the final say over the life and death of their clan members," are gone. If you want to do this again, you don't have to go far, the village police station will do it for you.

You can fight with your tribesmen, but do you dare to fight with your uncle?
As we all know, solving a case requires evidence, counter-terrorism only requires a list, and suppressing an insurgency only requires coordinates.

If two medium-range cruise missiles come down, how can your Bagua formation block them?

Therefore, Zhuge Xianglin is a tragic figure. He lived in a period of social chaos when the feudal patriarchal system was at its peak; when society was stable, he was limited by the modern system and could not control it at will.

After all, he is just a mediocre patriarch.

But mediocrity does not mean stupidity, nor does it mean being a loser.

Judging from the results of the previous fight, Zhuge Xianglin's strength is far superior to that of his sons. This is just a simple formation. If he really uses the Samadhi True Fire, I'm afraid Zhuge Yunpeng won't last more than fifteen minutes.

Not to mention being burned to death by the real fire, at least he would lose his ability to fight. If it were even more ruthless, it might even directly destroy his extraordinary cultivation.

A sorcerer is not an ordinary Qi-refining person. In addition to practicing Qi, he also needs a strong soul to resist the various temptations and illusions in his inner world. He uses a strong soul to determine the center, divide the four plates, and open the magic circle. Samadhi True Fire happens to target the soul the most.

It is no wonder that before the appearance of Fenghou Qimen, the Zhuge family's Qimen magic had been the best in the world for more than 1,700 years.

An alliance of sorcerers like the Shuzi Sect, which is made up of idle sorcerers in the world, relies on its power. But in this era, wouldn't any sorcerer be in awe when seeing someone from the Zhuge family?
Zhuge Yunpeng had nothing to say and was carried away by Zhuge Yunteng with a look of despair.

Zhuge Yunzhi was obviously much smarter than his elder brother. He quickly ordered someone to bring the silver over. He exaggeratedly wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead and smiled at He Songling, "Mr. He, here are 100,000 silver dollars. Would you like to count them?"

"No need to order. There's nothing to order with such a small amount of money."

He Songling showed his inhuman nature as soon as he disagreed with her. "But you guys are really fast. It's only been one night. Where did you find merchants with so much cash?"

Because of the social unrest in this era, especially in Lao Zhong, it was not as bad as the modern times. Most people were involved in finance and real estate, and most wealthy businessmen had a lot of cash on them.

But even so, there are still too few people who can directly take out one hundred thousand oceans.

That would make sense if they were in the eastern coastal areas, but now they are in the heart of the southwest.

It’s not that there are no rich people in the hinterland of the southwest. The key is that most of the rich people are secular people. The corrupt officials, power-for-money transactions, and mineral mining under the bald old Chang have nothing to do with the foreigners, especially the Zhuge family.

It is very difficult to simply find a traveling merchant who has connections with aliens.

"Well, I only met this guy once many years ago, and we were not even close friends. He happened to be in Sichuan these days, and I used magic to travel hundreds of miles to find him overnight before I could negotiate this deal with him."

Zhuge Xianglin smiled reservedly, thinking that he had shown a little bit of strength. I know that you, He Songling, are rich, but our Zhuge family also has plenty of ways.

"But this guy is really evil. I have so many old materials, heirlooms, antique calligraphy and paintings in my house, how could they be worth two hundred thousand dollars? But because he was in a hurry to sell them, he almost cut the price in half."

There are three kinds of people in this world. Some people are soft-hearted and do not respond to hardness, some people are hard-hearted and do not respond to softness, and some people are neither soft nor hard. But He Songling belongs to the fourth kind.

He is a psycho.

Zhuge Xianglin had no idea of ​​He Songling's pulse, but seeing that he liked to show off, he should say something flattering. The probability of making a mistake was higher than not making a mistake.

They certainly couldn't be tough when dealing with He Songling. After Zhuge Xianglin showed off his own strength, he quickly started to play the victim, hoping that He Songling could sympathize with their plight.

Even if you don't have sympathy, at least don't be angry with yourself because of what you said before.

Alas, life is so difficult. Even the dignified head of the Zhuge family has to tread on thin ice.

The most important thing is that he was not only walking on thin ice in front of He Songling, but this was also what made Zhuge Xianglin feel the saddest.

Fortunately, as long as he can get hold of this strong support now, he can at least be cautious with He Songling in the future.
