100-year-old foundation building, starting from the maximum level of understanding

Chapter 57 The Zhang Family bows their heads, two years later

Before Zhang Xingde came, he already had a clear understanding of the current situation of the Ji family.

No one would know better than him what it meant to break the Han family's mountain protection formation and kill several foundation-building cultivators single-handedly.

This means that Ji Haoyuan in front of him has most likely reached the late stage of foundation building, just like him.

This result shocked him.

But he also had to admit that such strength was enough to make the Zhang family bow their heads.

True.

Now, because of this long period of seclusion, his cultivation has reached the late stage of foundation building.

But he knew more clearly that he, who was in the late stage of foundation building, was completely incomparable to Ji Haoyuan, who was in the late stage of foundation building.

The most important thing is that his life span is running out.

He had no confidence at all that he could take the other person away.

If the Zhang family really offended the Ji family today, or even made a mortal enemy of them, then the Zhang family would most likely follow the same fate as the Han family.

As for Zhang Zhilong who has already joined the Chixia Sect.

Although his surname is Zhang, he has the blood of the Zhang family flowing in his veins.

But after all, he has not yet fully grown up.

And in a sense, he is no longer a cultivator of their Zhang family.

In this situation, he had no way of guaranteeing whether the Chixia Sect, or his master, would take action against the Ji family for the sake of their Zhang family.

Especially at this sensitive moment when we urgently need a strong man like Ji Haoyuan.

If the Zhang family makes a wrong bet, the consequences that they will have to bear will be unbearable for this ancestor and even for everyone in the Zhang family.

And after all, this Taiping Mountain now belongs to their Ji family.

When the Zhang family bought it, they were actually taking advantage of someone else's misfortune.

There is absolutely no need for the Zhang family to drag their family into an unpredictable abyss because of such a Taiping Mountain.

and so.

At this moment, Zhang Xingde acted extremely decisively.

He didn't even wait for Zhang Mingyuan and Zhang Mingze to react, and said to Ji Haoyuan again:

"Including all the gains my Zhang family has made from this place over the years, my Zhang family is willing to return them all to your family.

As for the cost of buying back the mountain, just give a symbolic spirit stone.

I don’t know how it is with friendship? "

Zhang Xingde's words immediately made Zhang Mingze and Zhang Mingyuan beside him look incredulous.

But after all this trouble, the two gradually realized something.

Although his expression was ugly, he didn't say anything else.

Ji Haoyuan looked deeply at the old man in front of him.

He knew that today's matter would probably end here.

After all, with the other party's attitude like that, it's really difficult for him to do anything.

He nodded slightly at the moment.

"You don't need a single spirit stone. You bought it from my Ji family with the same amount of spirit stones as me. This time, my Ji family will buy it back with the same amount of spirit stones.

Including the resources that your Zhang family has acquired here over the years, my Ji family will also buy them back at normal market prices.

in addition……"

Having said this, Ji Haoyuan paused for a moment before continuing:
"In one day, I will have someone from the Ji family come here to take over again. I hope you can evacuate everyone from your Zhang family before that."

After saying this, Ji Haoyuan did not stay any longer. His figure suddenly turned into a long rainbow and disappeared in front of the Zhang family members in the blink of an eye.

Looking at the direction where Ji Haoyuan disappeared, Zhang Mingyuan and Zhang Mingze both looked very ugly.

Zhang Mingyuan said unwillingly, "Uncle, are we really going to let this matter go?"

"Hmm..." Hearing Zhang Mingyuan's words, Zhang Xingde's eyes suddenly looked at him, his expression full of sternness.

"Mingyuan, I don't want to hear words like this from you again."

After a pause, Zhang Xingde continued:
"It's not scary for people to be greedy. What's scary is when they don't know themselves well and have no self-awareness, and are blinded by greed. This is the most fatal thing.

The main reason why the Han family was destroyed today was because they were too self-righteous and could not distinguish the difference between the enemy and us.

We in the Zhang family must never follow their example.

Do you all understand?"

At the end of his speech, Zhang Xingde's gaze had already shifted from Zhang Mingyuan to Zhang Mingze.

Zhang Mingze's heart trembled, and he immediately replied respectfully:
"Yes, Uncle, Mingze, I understand.

In the future, I will also be optimistic about Mingyuan."

"good!"

Only then did Zhang Xingde nod with a hint of satisfaction.

It was obvious that Zhang Mingze had really listened to what he had just said.

But soon, he seemed to remember something and said to the two of them again with a serious expression:
“Also, from now on, if it is not necessary, do not disturb Zhilong anymore. Let him practice peacefully in Chixia Sect.

Otherwise, it will not be a good thing for our Zhang family and Zhilong.

Do you understand?"

These words once again made the two of them look stunned.

Finally, Zhang Mingze sighed, nodded and said to Zhang Xingde:
"Yes, uncle, I understand.

From now on, we will not bother Zhiyong unless it is absolutely necessary."

……

Time flies.

In a flash, another two years passed.

During these two years, all cultivators within the Chixia Sect clearly felt that the situation between the Chixia Sect and the demonic Youming Sect was becoming increasingly tense.

An all-out war between the two sects is clearly not far away.

This can be easily seen from the ever-increasing prices of various commodities in major markets.

In addition, the number of demonic cultivators who sneaked into the Chixia Sect from nowhere is also increasing day by day.

In the area where Ji Haoyuan and his Ji family lived, no less than ten people were captured.

Among them were two foundation-building demon cultivators.

Although they were unable to dig out any useful information from the other party, through various signs and two years of observation, Ji Haoyuan could roughly guess that the other party was probably looking for something.

This is basically consistent with his initial judgment.

Could it be that the reason why the two sects are currently in this situation is because of the thing those evil cultivators are looking for?

hum!
Just when Ji Haoyuan was thinking about these questions, he suddenly felt that the spiritual energy around the Yundong Mountain where he was now began to gather towards a cave on the Yunliu Peak.

This made him realize something immediately.

His eyes immediately looked in that direction.

Then he saw that in that direction, a spiritual pressure completely different from that of a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage was slowly emanating.

This is?

Ji Haoyuan's eyes moved slightly.

Just at this moment, the figure of ancestor Ji Bochang appeared beside him at the right time.

He also looked towards the direction of the cave, and said with anticipation:

"If nothing unexpected happens, Yunfan should succeed."
