Chapter 276.2
In the end, the Second Elder openly challenged the Great Elder and the Third Elder, and the two sides fought. Although the Great Elder and the Third Elder suffered heavy losses, the Second Elder was also seriously injured and was forced to flee. This time, the Murong family, who stood with the Second Elder’s lineage, was completely on the opposite side of the Great Elder. If it were not for the attention of the Tiangang Sword Sect being turned toward the current situation, making it inconvenient for the Great Elder to take action against the Murong family, it’s highly likely that the current Murong family would have been expelled or even cleaned up by the Great Elder long ago.
It’s just that the current Murong family is dying, and in the eyes of many people, it’s just holding on until death. It will only be a matter of time before the Great Elder completely controls the Ziqing Sacred Land. By that time, the Murong family will face disaster sooner or later.
The experience of the Murong family in the past few years can be regarded as turbulent, and the experience of three ups and downs is also quite dramatic. It’s just that after falling down this time, it’s hard to say whether they will be able to recover.
Because the current Murong family has almost lost all of its use and value and has completely become a marginal family.
They may only have a little value in the eyes of the Great Elder, and this value is their use as the chicken in “killing the chicken to scare the monkey.”
Recently, the Murong family has been arguing endlessly. What they were arguing about was the future of the Murong family. What should they do? What can they even do in their current situation?
Some people think that at this time, the Murong family should immediately run to hug the Great Elder’s thigh and take out all the benefits that the Murong family can offer. No matter how much the loss is, as long as the Murong family can continue to survive, it is good. As long as the family is still there, there is still hope, and the family has a chance to rise again.
Some people think that going to the Great Elder at this time is tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger. The Great Elder and other ruthless people will not let them go just because they have given enough benefits, but will completely uproot their entire family this time. The Ziqing Sacred Land became a place where they basically couldn’t stay any longer, so the Murong family might as well go to the Tiangang Sword Sect, or even the Xuanlei Sect, or the Chongyang Sword Sect. With a new backer, the Murong family will naturally not be afraid of the Great Elder.
Others believe that these methods are not advisable, because, in the next few years, direct conflicts may break out one after another between these major sects. At that time, fringe forces like the Murong family would inevitably become cannon fodder for these major sects’ battles. In this case, why don’t they simply sell their properties and move the entire family? Whether it is Xizhou or Dongzhou, it is much better than staying in the currently turbulent Beizhou.
