"How's the investigation of Dong Tianxie going?"
The Liu Family's Patriarch suddenly thought of something and asked Head Shopkeeper Liu.
"Patriarch, Dong Tianxie is a promising person. He's very resilient and has a firm will."
Head Shopkeeper Liu said.
"Is he willing to join our Weapon Controller Sect?"
The Liu Family's Patriarch asked again.
"We talked about it in advance, but he didn't say anything." Head Shopkeeper Liu thought for a moment and then added, "He seems to be waiting for Zhang Xing."
"Then let's wait for Zhang Xing. Zhang Xing is a person who values friendship. He took care of Xiu Wuxue and Maniac Zhao, so Dong Tianxie won't leave him alone!"
The Liu Family's Patriarch waved his hand, and the conversation ended.
Dong Tianxie knew that he was invited to the Liu Family because of Zhang Xing.
For more than a month, he didn't care about anything and only focused on cultivating.
He knew that Zhang Xing would definitely come back. Although they weren't friends, they weren't enemies.
Especially in the unfamiliar environment of the Fifth Layer of Heaven, he really felt like he was from the same hometown.
Compared to the Liu Family and Zhang Xing, he trusted Zhang Xing more.
He was quite tempted when Head Shopkeeper Liu asked him to join the Weapon Controller Sect. After all, the Weapon Controller Sect was one of the top ten sects. Joining would be very helpful for his cultivation.
However, he also knew the drawbacks of such a large sect.
It was very difficult for a young man like him to develop without a foundation.
Therefore, he planned to ask for Zhang Xing's opinion.
Just as the Liu Family's Patriarch closed his eyes and thought about how to communicate with Zhang Xing and how to make him stay …
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and disappeared from the room.
At the same time, three huge battleships appeared in the sky above the Liu Family Manor.
Then, a cold and arrogant voice came from the battleships.
"Is Dong Tianxie here?"
The voice spread throughout the Liu Family and the city. Many people in the strongholds of the families and sects heard the voice and their expressions changed.
"Who's looking for Dong Tianxie?"
"Is it someone from the Joyful Flower Sect?"
Many people already knew that Dong Tianxie, Xiu Wuxiang, and Maniac Zhao were old friends with Zhang Xing. They all came from the 4th Layer of Heaven.
Since Zhang Xing had offended the Joyful Flower Sect, Dong Tian Xie would definitely be implicated.
"Go!
Let's go check out the situation! "
"I heard that the Liu Family's Old Ancestor came especially for Dong Tian Xie!"
"This is going to be a good show …"
In the sky above the Liu Manor, the figure of the Liu Family Patriarch appeared.
"So it's First Elder Li of the Shuntian Sect. Unfortunately, Dong Tian Xie has already become a disciple of my Tool Sect. Don't involve others in your grudges with Zhang Xing."
The old ancestor of the Liu Family didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
Even though Dong Tianxie hadn't agreed to join the Weapon Controller Sect, he still had to be protected.
The Shuntian Sect and the Tool Controller Sect were both members of the top ten first-rate sects.
However, their rankings were rather low, and their strength was about the same. They all served their own masters.
There were three super sects in the Fifth Heaven.
Hidden Mountain Cult, Esoteric Sect, Heaven Changing Sect.
The Tool Controller Sect belonged to the Heaven Changing Sect.
The Heaven Changing Sect controlled four of the top ten first-rate sects, and so did the Hidden Mountain Cult.
The weakest Esoteric Sect only controlled two.
As a result, the Fifth Heaven was divided into three major sects.
Both the Hidden Mountain Cult and the Heaven Changing Sect wanted to be the boss, so they constantly competed with each other.
At the same time, they didn't forget to suppress the Esoteric Sect to prevent them from taking advantage of the situation.
First Elder Li was the First Elder of the Shuntian Sect, and his status was the same as the Liu Family's Old Ancestor.
"Liu Yuan, don't try to trick me. Dong Tian Xie couldn't have joined your Tool Controller Sect so quickly. One of your goals in coming down the mountain this time is to rope him in, right?"
First Elder Li sneered as he called the Liu Family's Old Ancestor by his real name.
"Li Yi, I'm protecting Dong Tian Xie. You can give up. If you have the ability, go find Zhang Xing. Why are you here to capture his friend?"
Liu Yuan countered with equal harshness.
"Liu Yuan, I'm here on behalf of the Shuntian Sect to invite Dong Tian Xie as a guest. Who said we're here to capture him? You've misunderstood!"
Li Yi didn't mean what he said.
Li Yi had two goals in coming to capture Dong Tian Xie.
First, to threaten Zhang Xing. Second, to rope in Zhang Xing.
The Hidden Mountain Cult didn't care much about the deaths of their disciples.
If they could get Zhang Xing to join them, they would be able to make up for all their losses.
They would even make a lot of money.
Liu Yuan's goal in coming down the mountain was the same as theirs.
Therefore, no matter what, they couldn't let the Heaven Changing Sect rope in Zhang Xing.
"Alright, Li Yi, let's not beat around the bush. If you want to take Dong Tian Xie away, let's fight."
Liu Yuan said as a half-foot long sword appeared in her hand.
"Liu Yuan, you want to fight me one on one?"
Li Yi sneered and shook his head. "Don't you think this is the right time?"
With a wave of his hand, the energy cannons on the three ships lit up with terrifying runes.
"Liu Yuan, I don't have time to fight with you. Hand over Dong Tian Xie immediately. Otherwise, I don't mind wiping out the branch of the Liu Family that you don't care about."
Hearing this, Liu Yuan's face changed. Why didn't Li Yi play by the rules?
He left the mountain in a hurry this time and didn't prepare well. Now, Li Yi had the absolute advantage.
He stood awkwardly with a broad sword in his hand. For a moment, he was in a dilemma.
Seeing this scene, everyone in the Liu Family turned pale and their souls trembled in horror.
"Ancestor … It's not worth it for Dong Tian Xie!"
Shopkeeper Liu's brother kneeled down on the ground, begging with tears streaming down his face.
Although the surrounding people were a little scared when they saw the energy cannons, they weren't worried. After all, it had nothing to do with them!
Many people even hoped that the Liu Family would be destroyed …
Liu Yuan hesitated. It was too difficult for him!
Even if he could escape with Dong Tian Xie, this branch of the Liu Family would be completely wiped out. He would also bear the crime of being cold-blooded and ruthless.
If he wanted to avenge his descendants, he wouldn't be able to do it in a short time.
But if he handed Dong Tian Xie over, he would definitely offend Zhang Xing. It would be extremely difficult to pull him into the camp.
"I'll go with them!"
At this moment, Dong Tianxie walked out of the house step by step.
He knew everything that happened outside. It wasn't that the Liu Family didn't have the ability to protect him, but the price was too high.
His figure flashed and he appeared in the air. He was in a triangular position with Liu Yuan and Li Yi.
This meant that he hated these two sects.
The scene just now reminded him of when he first started out.
At that time, the Monster Sect was like the Weapon Controller Sect and the Shuntian Sect. They didn't take him seriously and treated him as an insignificant bargaining chip.
The larger the sect, the more it would do things that were in line with the sect's most fundamental interests.
For a small character like him, even if he joined the Weapon Controller Sect, he wouldn't be valued. He was the kind of disciple that could be discarded at any time.
He didn't want to make things difficult for the Liu Family. It wasn't hard to imagine what the Liu Family's ancestor would do.
The Shuntian Sect was even more unreliable. They were here to capture him and threaten Zhang Xing.
