However, after the news of the fall of the ancient ancestor, Qingxue Guhua, in the Sword Tomb spread, the entire Southern Heavenly Realm was completely shaken, and dark currents surged instantly.
Those forces that originally submitted and allied with the Qingxue family began to feel anxious.
Especially when some external top forces started to secretly probe the forces surrounding the Qingxue family, and the Qingxue family remained silent, these forces became utterly flustered.
Some unfavorable rumors quickly spread within these celestial domains, and many forces secretly began to entertain other thoughts.
It should be noted that the Qingxue family is the top force in the Southern Heavenly Realm, controlling the richest celestial domain in this realm. What a huge piece of fat meat, a cake.
Some external top forces also began to stir restlessly; of course, they did not dare to act openly but started secretly colluding with the external forces controlled by the Qingxue family.
At first, those external forces were still afraid to express any stance, but when they discovered that the Qingxue family actually had no reaction, they immediately began to act on their thoughts.
Moreover, having followed the Qingxue family for so many years, they understood some situations within the Qingxue family, and someone obtained clear information that the ancestor of the Qingxue family, Qingxue Guhua, had already fallen.
Once this news was transmitted, the powerful forces surrounding them naturally became even more unscrupulous, secretly colluding with the external forces of the Qingxue family, constantly swallowing the territory and wealth of the Qingxue family.
In fact, in fear of being robbed by others, these powerful forces rushed to compete like locusts.
After all, the fallen Qingxue family was a colossal entity, and taking one more bite was an immensely great wealth for these top forces.
Of course, at this moment, the ancestral land of the Qingxue family located in the Wind and Snow Domain had not yet been invaded. After all, this is the core land of the Qingxue family, and until things become clear, no one dares to be the first to act.
Moreover, the lean camel is still bigger than the horse. Although Qingxue Guhua has fallen, who knows if there are still powerful experts within the Qingxue family? Therefore, no one is willing to be the first to strike at the ancestral land of the Qingxue family, but the footsteps of these top forces are getting closer and closer to the Qingxue family.
At this moment, in a certain mansion of the Qingxue family's ancestral land, some elders of the Qingxue family were gathering together.
These powerful figures all exuded thick auras, almost all being peak Saint Masters. The head of the Qingxue family, Qingxue Futian, and the father of Qingxue Silan and Qingxue Siyun, Qingxue Guhua, were also among this crowd.
However, the family master, Qingxue Futian, did not sit in the main position; seated on the left and right sides of the main seat were two elders dressed in gray and white martial robes, their auras extremely terrifying, suppressing heaven and earth, with the rules of heaven and earth being suppressed around them.
These were two half-step Venerable experts, but their blood vitality had already decayed significantly. Although they had stepped into the half-step Venerable realm, their auras were exceedingly old, giving people the feeling of being on the verge of death.
These two were the two hidden Supreme Elders of the Qingxue family, Qingxue Tian and Qingxue Di.
"Two hidden Supreme Elders, what should our Qingxue family do next? We ask the two elders to make a decision."
In the hall, the top elders of the Qingxue family looked anxiously at these two old men, their faces pale.
"Sigh, I didn't expect the ancestor to unexpectedly fall in the Sword Tomb..." Qingxue Tian among the two sighed, his vitality too decayed, with sparse hair and a face full of wrinkles, almost half a foot in the coffin.
In terms of generation, he was already of the great-grandfather level compared to Qingxue Futian, not much younger than Qingxue Guhua, having lived for an unknown number of tens of thousands of years.
