Family Cultivation: My entire family are Villains

Chapter 871: 379, Half Prefecture of Hexi



No wonder, no wonder that five years ago, the Rakshasa Holy Sect voluntarily withdrew from Xiayuan Dao, kindly making room for Leiyin Temple. At that time, almost everyone, including Hou Yuxiao, believed that the reason was that the Rakshasa Holy Sect wanted to concentrate its power on dealing with the Bingzhou Blood Spirit Demon Sect, and was unwilling to tear face with Leiyin Temple.

Looking back now, the intentions of the Rakshasa Holy Sect are far more than that!

They knew long ago that when Leiyin Temple moved south, it would surely bring trouble upon itself, arousing the jealousy of the major southern Holy Lands. Rather than saying the Rakshasa Holy Sect gave Leiyin Temple a place, it would be more accurate to say they prepared a coffin for Leiyin Temple.

Lin Xuangan's move at Wanglong Mountain was just the icing on the cake. Even without it, the encirclement and pursuit by the major southern Holy Lands against Leiyin Temple would not cease; the difference was only a matter of speed.

Shi Tian is dead, while Fahai has become a Saint, but his capabilities are questionable. Moreover, right after becoming a Saint, he must face the masters of the four major Holy Lands. The key point is that currently, Leiyin Temple's Sect Members and disciples have suffered countless casualties, over two million troops are still stuck in Yeyun County and have not returned, and the millions of Earthshade Monastic Soldiers in the Prefectural City have just exhausted their vitality to support the Array, leaving them unable to fight further.

In such circumstances, Sikong Xingzhou appeared, donning the guise of Shi Tian's apprentice and Fahai's fellow disciple. Leiyin Temple no longer had any choice. Fahai, unwilling to sever his own cultivation to save the Sect Members and soldiers on the ground, could only lead them to join the Brahman Sect, which shares the same source as the Chan Sect, now under the Rakshasa Holy Sect...

Sikong Xingzhou's presence here proves that the Rakshasa Holy Sect has likely already resolved matters in the west with Bingzhou, which means they now control nearly two prefectures' worth of territory: Yongzhou's two districts and Bingzhou's four districts.

Though Leiyin Temple lost Shi Tian, they gained Buddha Fahai. Despite the heavy losses in this Battle of Jianye Prefecture, the remaining army numbers at least three million, and once this is annexed by the Rakshasa Holy Sect...

Hou Yuxiao's mood suddenly plummeted to the depths.

Ever since he suffered defeat at Sikong Yue's hands ten years ago, he had never felt so miserable. At this moment, he even began to regret attacking Jianye Prefecture.

Apparently, his Hexi forces and the four major Holy Lands had been busy for nothing. So many died, Leiyin Temple lost so many, and yet he forged a deadly enmity with Fahai, a Martial Dao Saint, only to realize at the end that everything had played into the hands of the Rakshasa Holy Sect, which had nurtured a giant like Great Jin in the west!

What's the point?

Hou Yuxiao was extremely frustrated, suddenly noticing Sikong Xingzhou in midair glancing at him again. His resentment towards the Rakshasa Holy Sect had reached its peak, and knowing that he was already going to tear face with them, he wasn't afraid and directly lifted his head to stare at Sikong Xingzhou.

When he looked up, he happened to meet Sikong Xingzhou's seemingly smiling eyes.

Hou Yuxiao immediately clenched the fists hidden in his sleeves, his heart burning with anger while a strong sense of helplessness swelled within him.

Last year, he had finally managed to leverage Zhantai Wuyuan to deal with Sikong Yue once, gaining a bit of confidence against the Rakshasa Holy Sect. Now, Sikong Xingzhou delivered a crushing blow to his ego. Could it be that he would be oppressed by this father-daughter duo for his entire life, never able to turn the tables?

......

After glancing at Hou Yuxiao, Sikong Xingzhou ignored the masters of the four major Holy Lands and instead turned his gaze to Fahai beside him, speaking with a hint of regret:

"Chan Sect and my Brahman Sect share the same origins. How could I sit by and do nothing when Leiyin Temple suffers such a disaster? To be honest with you, Brother Fahai, before learning that the four major Holy Lands planned to move against Leiyin Temple, I had already visited Uncle Shi Tian, proposing that the two could merge and restore old ties. If Uncle agreed, my Holy Church would even abandon Bingzhou and surely send troops to relieve Leiyin Temple from today's predicament. Unfortunately, Uncle politely refused, so I could not intervene.

Ending up like this, it's truly a pity..."

One must say, with a Martial Dao Saint, the prowess is indeed extraordinary. His words were filled with regret and emotion. If those present weren't all old foxes, they might not have seen through Sikong Xingzhou's false sentiment.

When the four major Holy Lands come knocking, you propose merging. Isn't that classic opportunism? It would be surprising if they agreed. Now with Shi Tian dead, you come expressing regret. Where were you when he was alive?

"Enough, there's no need for Brother Sikong to say more. Leiyin Temple suffers such a disaster today, Fahai knows there is no way out. From today onwards, Fahai pledges to bring all Sect Members of Leiyin Temple and join Brahman Sect, only asking Brother to promise me one condition!"

Sikong Xingzhou's eyes lit up immediately, saying: "Brother, please go ahead."

Hou Yuxiao heard Fahai was going to make a request and Sikong Xingzhou agreed, making him a bit tense. Fahai's earlier intent to kill him was real; if he suggested to Sikong Xingzhou to kill him, what then?

No, no, after all, he was not the mastermind behind Shi Tian's death. If Fahai wanted to avenge his sect, he should go after the true culprits. Besides, having the opportunity to make a request to Sikong Xingzhou was very precious; it shouldn't be wasted on him...

"Jing Yuanxiu, Wei Xuheng, Meng Qu, Xun Mu, Zhuge Yuan, the lives of these five..."

Upon hearing Fahai finish naming names, excluding his own, Hou Yuxiao immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Fahai was not entirely muddled and knew these five were the culprits.
