"I am here..."

A familiar voice came from the backyard.

"Huh!"

As soon as Ni Yongxiao stepped into the courtyard, his gaze was drawn to Ni Yongci, who was sitting on a stool.

He couldn't help but exclaim softly in surprise, "Third Sister! You're actually here!"

"Fourth brother!"

Ni Yongci smiled kindly and waved to Ni Yongxiao, "Quick! Come and sit here!"

I heard my third sister calling me.

Ni Yongxiao was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening.

"Um!"

He smiled and nodded, then strode towards the crowd.

After settling down.

"Ah-Xiao!"

Ni Yongci looked at Ni Yongxiao with a kind expression and slowly said, "Father has told me everything. It must have been so hard for you!"

Ni Yongxiao smiled slightly and nodded in response.

Seeing this scene.

"That's not fair!"

Suddenly, Ni Yonggui interjected, "Just now, Third Sister not only blamed me for keeping it from her... but also, she pinched me hard!"

As he spoke, Ni Yonggui deliberately raised his arm to show what appeared to be some red marks, which caused everyone present to burst into laughter.

"Hahaha...hehehe..."

The laughter lasted for quite a while before gradually subsiding.

Followed by.

"Cough cough..."

Ni Kun cleared his throat, then turned to Ni Yongci and earnestly comforted her, "Aci, although you failed to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage this time, it wasn't a complete loss!"

He paused slightly, then emphasized, "At least through this experience, your Dao heart has become much stronger, which is undoubtedly something to be thankful for!"

Ni Yongci listened attentively to his father's words, nodding frequently in agreement.

"Aci!"

Seeing that the three girls were still as well-behaved and sensible as when they were children, Ni Kun felt very gratified.

After a brief pause, Ni Kun continued, "As for the Foundation Establishment, you don't need to worry... Once we enter Black Mountain, I will have a way to help you break through your cultivation level!"

Yes, Ni Kun believed that Black Mountain must contain a massive amount of demonic flames. With this opportunity, not only could Ni Yongci advance to the Foundation Establishment stage, but other disciples could also successfully break through their cultivation bottlenecks.

"Um!"

Ni Yongci nodded repeatedly, deeply agreeing with his father's words.

For her, whether or not she could successfully enter the Foundation Establishment stage was not important; as long as she could stay by her father's side, that was enough.

Moreover, although Ni Kun looked too young, she felt that her father should be this handsome.

Deep down, she still hoped that her second brother, who was a mortal, would know that their father was still alive.

However, after Ni Kun expressed his concerns, she naturally became extremely obedient.

After chatting for a while, everyone got back to business.

"Father!"

After a moment's thought, Ni Yonggui said, "My seventh sister and I estimate that the Black Mountain Fortress will be completely completed in seven days at most. Father, when do you plan to send the clansmen off?"

"Don't rush!"

Ni Kun took a sip of tea, gazed into the distance, and said slowly, "Those who bought the corpses are already itching to get out. Let's make our money first and then leave!"

The conversation was halfway through.

He paused for a moment, then added, "The Half-Mountain Mansion is fine, but we must be extra cautious at Black Mountain Fortress!"

The three looked slightly confused.

Ni Kun smiled slightly and explained, "Originally, the Black Mountain Demonic Sect was restrained by the Yue Kingdom, so it wouldn't act rashly. But now that the Yue Kingdom is on the verge of chaos, this has given the Black Mountain Demonic Cultivators an opportunity to take advantage!"

Ni Kun added meaningfully, "The Black Mountain demonic cultivators are very likely to attack the Ni family first, and the reason is not just a mere fortress!"

At this point, Ni Kun pointed to his forehead.

"oh!"

Ni Yongxiao and the other two suddenly realized what was going on.

"Father!"

Ni Yonggui immediately suggested, "Why don't we have Qingyue come over with me first?"

Ni Kun shook his head and emphasized, "Except for Ah Xiao and Lao Ba, all the family's fighting force will be brought over under the pretext of training!"

Ni Yongxiao nodded and added, "Subsequently, all family members were also moved there under the pretext of the Black Mountain Fortress completion ceremony!"

"good!"

Ni Kun nodded approvingly, then looked at Ni Yongxiao meaningfully: "During this period, you and Lao Ba will only do one thing: extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures, recruit as many cultivators as possible..."

Ni Yongxiao immediately accepted the order, after all, he currently had quite a bit of money at his disposal...

After discussing the details for a while, the four of them started chatting casually.

In the blink of an eye, another three days have passed.

When the Ni family transferred their forces to the Black Mountain Fortress, the expected thing finally happened—a series of major events broke out simultaneously in various parts of the Yue Kingdom!

Before the Cui family's gate in Qinghe, banners fluttered and blotted out the sun. A dense crowd of people and horses gathered there, stretching as far as the eye could see, like an endless black ocean.

And on the high platform.

Cui Beiwang, the patriarch of the Cui family, stood ramrod straight and solemnly announced in a loud voice.

"We, the Cui family of Qinghe, raise our troops today for two reasons: first, to seek justice for His Highness the Crown Prince, and second, to bring prosperity to the people of the land!"

Almost at the same moment.

Boling Cui family.

The scene at the entrance was equally bustling, and the spectacle was in no way inferior to that of the Cui family in Qinghe.

Moreover, the army assembled by the Cui clan of Boling was far more formidable in comparison.

At this moment, Cui Zhennan, the patriarch of the Cui clan of Boling, stood on a high place and shouted hoarsely, "We, the Cui clan of Boling... obey the will of Heaven and respond to the wishes of the people. Today we raise an army to punish the treacherous officials and rebels in the court, to avenge the late Crown Prince, and to cleanse the court of corrupt officials!"

Before he could finish speaking...

"Pfft! Pfft..."

Before him, a row of enemy officials from the Yue Kingdom had their heads chopped off, their blood splattering on the commander's flag.

When the Cui clan, though of the same lineage, rose in rebellion.

"If his superior can be emperor, why can't I, Yuwen, be emperor?" Yuwen Taiyang's angry shout resounded through the sky.

The speaker was none other than Yuwen Yang, the patriarch of the Guanlong Yuwen family!

He led his troops to attack and kill the opposing forces, openly raising the banner of rebellion: "The current Yue royal family is immoral and cruel, harming the benevolent crown prince. Today we rise up in arms, and I will seek justice for the people!"

On that very day.

As if the gears of fate had begun to turn, a tremendous storm swept across the vast and narrow land of Yue.

Whether it's the frigid north, the fertile plains of the center, or the tropical rainforests of the south, all are being stirred by an invisible force.

In an instant, the land of Yue was engulfed in flames and filled with the smoke of war.

The remains of the demonic cultivators, still unburied in the wilderness, have once again drawn a new storm into the world of immortals and mortals.

Amidst this turbulent situation, various powerful forces emerged like mushrooms after rain.

Among them, the most powerful were none other than the Eighteen Warlords!

With banners fluttering and drums beating, their mighty army marched straight toward the first gate of the imperial city—the Execution Platform.
