From this day on, their fates underwent earth-shaking changes.

Very soon, the Ren Family sisters and others realized how fortunate they were, because their "husband" turned out to be a Half-Immortal of the Void, and he appeared so handsome and dashing.

Just as Zhao Sheng was working hard, the Divine Artisan Zhao Clan quickly revealed its ferocious side, decisively starting external expansion moves.

Yellow Wind Immortal City... and even the Ten Thousand Peak Spirit Domain soon became restless.

In the next few hundred years, conflicts and wars erupted all over the Spirit Domain, countless weaker families were annexed by powerful forces, piece by piece the Barbaric lands were successfully developed. The Four Saints Continent's survival of the fittest and the cruel aspect of the strong devouring the weak was starkly exposed before Zhao Sheng.

...

In the western part of the Ten Thousand Peak Spirit Domain, there was a stretch of majestic towering mountains extending for tens of thousands of miles. Within the mountain range, a white mist of Spiritual Energy lingered, some peaks covered in snow, while others emitted vast red light, with numerous tall and perilous peaks looming shadowily in the fog, seemingly hiding countless dangers.

This is the Lianyun Mountain Range, a perilous place even Nascent Soul Cultivators dare not easily approach.

The Lianyun Mountain Range is abundant in Spiritual Energy, scattered with Strange Flowers and Herbs and Exotic Beasts, making it extremely rich in various cultivation resources, and is considered a rare Treasure Land.

Near the Yanyun Mountain Range, there is a rather concealed valley, where the terrain is complex like a maze, shrouded in mist and clouds all year round, as if life had ceased.

But through the layers of fog, the valley surprisingly contains vast patches of spirit fields and Medicine Gardens, with simple and elegant courtyards scattered among them, resembling a bit of a paradise.

In the center of the valley sits a massive estate, covered by a faint blue Barrier, with a nine-story pagoda standing in the deepest part of the estate.

In front of the pagoda is a green stone plaza, at the end stands a colossal flagpole over twenty feet high, the flag fluttering in the wind, prominently inscribed with the character "Qin."

This very valley is the Ancestral Land of the Qin family of "Bai Fang". In the Ten Thousand Peak Spirit Domain, the Qin family is considered a second-tier force, with two Divinity Transformation True Monarchs overseeing, and more than a hundred Nascent Soul Cultivators.

If placed in the Tianzhu Realm, the Qin family would undoubtedly be the absolute overlord of a realm, even the Zhao Clan would be hard-pressed to compare.

However, in the Ten Thousand Peak Spirit Domain, a second-tier force like the Qin family of "Bai Fang" can barely protect itself and sometimes becomes a "fat piece" in the eyes of other strong forces.

At this time, several giant men clad in Red Gold Armor stood solemnly around the tower, each possessing cultivation above the Golden Core level.

In front of each giant man's chest armor, a Mountain Dragon pattern was prominently engraved, clearly the clan emblem of the Divine Artisan Zhao Clan.

At this moment, on the ninth floor of the tower, the atmosphere inside the room was quite heavy, with an invisible atmosphere of killing intent pervading the air.

On the most prominent Magic Platform, sat two old men in green robes, who were none other than the Qin family's Divinity Transformation True Monarchs—Qin Gong and Qin Fang.

Sitting opposite them were two individuals, both clad in Golden Armor, harboring hidden but not visible killing intent.

The leader was a broad-faced man with white brows, with a faint brilliance flickering in his eyes, and his aura indicated that his cultivation had reached the Mid-stage Divinity Transformation.

Next to the man was a thin old man with cold, icy eyes, who also had cultivation in the Divinity Transformation Realm.

Both were surnamed Zhao, the broad-faced man named Zhao Qingfeng, and the thin old man was named Zhao Huaji, the lowest-ranked among the Zhao Clan's seven Divinity Transformation True Monarchs.

"Taoist Qin Gong, the purpose of our visit has been clearly conveyed to you on previous occasions, and I have no wish to waste more words. The Golden Crystal Fire Carp Lake occupied by your Qin family is what our Zhao family wants, the terms remain unchanged, thirty thousand Top-grade Spirit Stones, you must vacate Fire Carp Lake within a month." The white-browed man Zhao Qingfeng extended three fingers, speaking coldly.

"Brother Qingfeng, you are mistaken. For this Golden Crystal Fire Carp Lake, our Qin family has sacrificed over ten thousand clansmen and exhausted countless resources and energy. A mere thirty thousand Top-grade Spirit Stones is a drop in the ocean. If we give it to the Zhao family, how are we supposed to explain it to our people?" Qin Gong remained silent, but Qin Fang beside him had already spoken coldly.

"Heh, the Golden Crystal Fire Carp Lake was originally taken by your Qin family from the Gu Family. The Gu Family is now in-laws with our Zhao Clan and has already transferred Fire Carp Lake to us. It's only right for you to cede Fire Carp Lake. What more is there to say?!" The thin man Zhao Huaji chuckled, speaking up.

"Do not go too far! Our Qin family is not to be trifled with either. You must know that 'Master Fengxian' is the senior martial sister of our family's great ancestor. Master Fengxian needs no introduction, you should be well aware of her. If you push too far, our Qin family may have to call upon her to uphold justice!" Qin Gong's gaze flickered as he spoke solemnly.

At these words, Zhao Qingfeng and Zhao Huaji's expressions turned grim, obviously the "Master Fengxian" who was mentioned held great intimidation, likely possessing strength beyond Zhao Xuanjing.

"Qin Fang, there's no need to use Master Fengxian to scare us. Since we dared to come, we naturally fear no threat. As stated, if you yield Fire Carp Lake, all will be well. If not, your Qin family should prepare for annihilation!" Zhao Qingfeng's face was stern, uttering each word with severity.
