“Junior pays respects to Senior Zhou, with two seniors from the Zhou Family leading this campaign against the traitors, victory is surely ours!”
“With Senior Zhou present, we have no worries about this battle!”
“The strength of the two seniors from the Zhou Family is evident to all, and we are all willing to follow them into battle to slay the enemy!”
At the Little Bear Mountain stronghold near the border between Lingzhou and Lanzhou, the arrival of the five members of the Zhou Family was met with an enthusiastic welcome and lavish praise from the multitude of family cultivators summoned by the Green Lotus Temple, which left Zhou Xintie, witnessing such a scene for the first time, overwhelmed with surging emotions.
This time, Zhou Chun had brought him along with the intention of training him.
Yet the first thing he saw was this spectacle.
Upon reflection, it was not at all surprising that such a scene would unfold.
After all, the current strength of the Zhou Family was widely recognized, and their previous military achievements in annihilating the Jiang Family had deeply shaken people’s hearts.
No one knew how many families in the Cultivation World of Jingguo Country were trembling with fear upon hearing this news.
It could be said that the Zhou Family’s current prestige was wholly earned through battle.
And faced with the flattery and adulation of many cultivators, Zhou Mingde did not lose himself in it; instead, he responded politely, “Fellow Taoists, you are too kind. The likes of us are only here by the decree of our Senior Sect, wishing only to carry out the orders of the Sect, and we do not deserve such praise.”
Today’s Zhou Family was unlike before, for with great strength came the envy of the Green Lotus Temple.
Therefore, there was no longer a need to seek fame through high-profile actions as in the past.
Now, to accept adulation and lead the cultivators of various families might certainly seem impressive.
But it could inadvertently arouse the Green Lotus Temple’s dissatisfaction, suspecting that the Zhou Family was forming factions with ulterior motives.
This was a risk Zhou Mingde was unwilling to take.
After exchanging polite greetings, Zhou Mingde led Zhou Chun and the others deeper into the stronghold to meet the Green Lotus Temple’s envoy stationed there.

The Temple’s envoy was not of high cultivation level either, merely at the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion Realm.
After exchanging pleasantries with Zhou Mingde and Zhou Chun, he conveyed further instructions from the Green Lotus Temple.
“The Temple Master has personally ordered that the two Taoist Friends from the Zhou Family lead the team to Lingzhou territory to suppress the rebellious Guo Family of Tuyun Ridge and exterminate their clan!”
Suppress the Guo Family of Tuyun Ridge?
Zhou Mingde and Zhou Chun were briefly startled, then exchanged a look and couldn’t help but smile.
The Guo Family of Tuyun Ridge was a Purple Mansion Family that had come to assist the Jiang Family during the Zhou Family’s annihilation of the latter.
A cultivator from the initial stage of the Purple Mansion from the Guo Family had even clashed with Zhou Chun, but ultimately had to use an escape technique to flee after being overpowered.
At that time, Zhou Chun did not pursue the cultivator for fear of an ambush.
Little did they expect to cross paths again today.
Zhou Mingde promptly replied in all seriousness, “I understand, please relay to the Senior Temple Master that the Zhou Family will spare no effort in fulfilling the Senior Temple Master’s commands!”
“That is good, Taoist Friend Zhou. You may rest here for half a day today, and you are to set out early tomorrow morning!”
The Green Lotus Temple Cultivator nodded in satisfaction and took the opportunity to announce the departure time.
Upon learning there was half a day left, Zhou Mingde and Zhou Chun were in no hurry.
The two went outside to mingle with the cultivators from the other families and to tally up their numbers.
Perhaps inspired by the Zhou Family’s battle that wiped out the Jiang Family, or maybe because the target was not large to begin with,
this time the Green Lotus Temple did not ask the far-flung families of the Cultivation World to send Qi Refinement Realm cultivators, but instead had them send a certain number of Foundation Establishment and Purple Mansion Cultivators according to the situation of each family.
This time, the Zhou Family was assigned to deal with the Guo Family of Tuyun Ridge, a major Cultivation Clan, so they were given quite a number of Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
In addition to the three Foundation Establishment Cultivators brought by the Zhou Family themselves, there were ten more Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators at their disposal.
As such, their team was not much different in strength from the one that attacked the Jiang Family.
And according to intelligence, the Mountain Protection Array of the Guo Family at Tuyun Ridge was not as powerful as the Jiang Family’s, and their own number of Foundation Establishment Cultivators had also dropped to only three.
Understanding this, Zhou Mingde and Zhou Chun had a clear picture in their minds.
Early the next morning, the group set out from the Little Bear Mountain stronghold, entering the territory of Lingzhou directly towards the Guo Family’s mountain gate.
In less than half a day, the group arrived outside the Guo Family’s mountain gate.
The Guo Family had already sealed the mountain following the Tianjing Sect’s command and were somewhat prepared.
Seeing the cultivators from Lanzhou approaching, the Guo Family’s Mountain Protection Array was immediately activated at full strength.
A yellow haze enshrouded the entire Guo Family’s mountain gate, obscuring the inside from the view of those outside,
but the Guo Family cultivators inside could clearly see the outside without any hindrance.
“Disaster has come, I knew this would happen!”
Atop Tuyun Ridge, Guo Tong, the Supreme Elder of the Guo Family, looked at Zhou Mingde and Zhou Chun leading the attack and his face turned very ugly.
Ever since their failed attempt to rescue the Jiang Family led to a direct confrontation between the sects under Tianjing and the Green Lotus Temple, he had an inkling that the Guo Family might suffer as well.
Hence, after escaping back to his clan, he took the initiative to recall the clan members and seal the mountain.
For forces within the Cultivation World, choosing to seal the mountain signifies facing a great calamity or seeking to avoid one.
But now it was clear that even though they had chosen to seal the mountain, the Guo Family could not avoid this disaster and were still caught up in it.
Now, with the catastrophe of clan extermination before his eyes, Guo Tong, as the Supreme Elder of the Guo Family, felt his heart pounding and numbed with shock.
