() The sun sets in the west and darkness covers the entire sky. However, the meeting hall of the Yan family is brightly lit.

Yan Yaoji, the head of the Yan family and one of the six elders, occupies a high position. Below the meeting hall, there are more than ten middle-aged men sitting on both sides. They are members of the Mu generation of the family, and they are all outstanding members of the family.

, most of the future clan leaders and elders will be born from these dozen or so people.

Yan Yaoji sat in the middle with a stern expression. He coughed slightly and said slowly: "Mu Rong, as the person in charge of the family's Xishan Lingshi mine, how can you be so flustered?"

The person who made the panic report just now was Yan Murong. The Xishan Spirit Mine is located in the west of Tianlu, more than 1,800 miles away from the Yan family's territory, and the person in charge there is Yan Murong.

The older generation of the Yan family is about to retire, and the family power will be handed over to the Mu generation. Therefore, all the family's properties have been handed over to the core members of the Mu generation.

Yan Murong took a few deep breaths, calmed down his still-unresolved state of mind, nodded solemnly and said: "The patriarch and the elders have been practicing hard in seclusion for the past few days, so they may not know something. This matter is of great importance, and it is really beyond my control.

I fell into a trap and had a hard time getting out, so I rushed back to report it."

"oh?"

Not only the clan leader, but also the six elders and more than a dozen members of the Mu generation frowned. Yan Murong was also a powerful member of the Mu generation, so it must be no small matter to make him so flustered.

"Huh?" Yan Yaoji exclaimed, "I have summoned the important members of the family here as you requested. Please tell me the whole story."

Yan Murong took a deep breath and said with concentration: "The Xishan Mine has always been controlled by our Yan family. But not long ago, a strange energy fluctuation came from the mine. At first, we thought it was an earthquake, so we stopped.

After a few days, the mining continued, but unexpectedly the energy fluctuations became more frequent. A few brave tribesmen dug specifically along the direction of the energy fluctuations, and later, they dug out a strange thing."

"What is that strange thing?" Everyone's expressions changed, realizing that the thing was definitely not a simple thing.

"Go on." Yan Yaoji frowned, his expression uncertain.

"That thing was wrapped in a ball of golden and fire energy. I could feel a wave of life from it. So I ordered people to move the thing up. Unexpectedly, anyone who came within three feet of the thing

All the people there felt weak and dizzy. I went down to try it myself and felt the same way. That creature seems to have a great ability to interfere with the soul."

"Oh? It's amazing that there are such magical creatures in the world." The eldest elder of the Yan family suddenly sighed.

"The matter is far more than that." Yan Murong said with a sad face, "I speculate that the strange creature should be a spiritual beast cub. It seems to be still sleeping, but was disturbed by the movement of us mining spiritual stones.

So we woke up. Since then, the Xishan Mine has stopped mining, and we can only wait and see what happens."

"About a few days later, the cub made a big movement. This movement was so powerful that it shook people's hearts. Many of the tribesmen who were watching had their souls wounded and suffered internal injuries. However, this momentum

, but it attracted many surrounding families to come to investigate. After identification by some big families and some older people, they all agreed that the cub was a strange beast from the ancient times."

"An ancient beast!"

"Ding..." Yan Murong said these four words, and there were several sounds of teacups being crushed in the conference hall, followed by the sound of everyone gasping. Even Yan Yaoji, who was always calm, couldn't help but panic.

Standing up, his eyes revealed a gleam of surprise.

"It should be true. Some old immortals were also alerted and showed up. They said they were at least 80% sure that the cub was a prehistoric alien species." Yan Murong said respectfully.

The head of the Yan family and the six elders are all well-informed people. They have only seen this ancient and domineering name of ancient beasts in family books. In reality, no one has ever mentioned it.

These four words.

Yan Yaoji swallowed, his fingers trembled slightly, he held the seat with his left hand, pointed slightly at Yan Murong with his right hand, and said in a trembling voice: "Continue to speak."

"Originally, this cub is a strange beast from ancient times. Only some old immortal guys and a few big families knew about it. But I don't know who revealed the news. Now in the Xishan area, almost no one knows about it.

Xiao. Many families have sent their elites to garrison near Xishan. In order to occupy the favorable terrain, some families have even broken out into conflicts."

"Huh?" Yan Yaoji clenched his fists slightly and sat down slowly.

Ancient beasts, if these beasts grow up, they will have extremely high intelligence, and even have the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth. To conquer the adult beasts, you need extremely high supernatural powers. Nowadays,

The ancient alien species is still in a young state. Although it takes a little effort to conquer it, it is many times easier than conquering an adult alien beast. Once a family conquers an ancient alien beast, even those living creatures on the sky and the land

An old guy who has been around for who knows how many years has to avoid his sharp edge. No wonder so many families are stationed nearby like crazy.

"Keep talking." Yan Yaoji calmed down and said hastily.

Yan Murong said bitterly: "The Xishan mineral vein is originally owned by my Yan clan, which is almost everyone in Tianlu. Due to the protection of my clan, and the fact that you and I are on guard among all clans, no one dares to take the initiative to touch the aliens.

Beast. However, just a few days ago, the major families finally couldn't bear it anymore and a large-scale conflict broke out. Even our clan suffered many casualties. Now, our clan has lost control of the Xishan Mine. Now we control

The power has fallen into the hands of the two major families, Ouyang and Nangong."

"Bang..." The thick armrest of the seat was torn off by Yan Yaoji. His eyes showed a frightening cold light.

The expressions of all the elders changed and their faces darkened.

"The two great families, Ouyang and Nangong, are both famous behemoths in Tianlu. The Yan family cannot compete with them. What should we do now?" The second elder of the Yan family lamented lightly.

"Born in our clan's mineral veins, it is our clan's thing. The big deal is that we can keep the essence of the Yan family's bloodline and fight to the death with them. If that ancient beast falls into the hands of any of their clans, with that ambition, it will be a matter of time.

If we want to annex other families, our Yan family will inevitably suffer disaster." The third elder of the Yan family snorted coldly, with a sharp cold light in his eyes.

Yan Yaoji breathed heavily and said in a deep voice: "How is the current situation?"

Yan Murong frowned and said: "Now, the two major families are constantly sending people to investigate the alien beast, hoping to subdue it. However, their situation is similar to ours, they are unable to get within three feet of the alien beast.
