Family Cultivation: My entire family are Villains

"The Hou Clan owns half of Hexi Province!"

Hou Yuduan's words instantly gripped everyone's mind and spirit.

Even Hou Yuxiao was not an exception.

In this great battle, leaving aside the gains and losses, as Sikong Xingzhou departed and the Lords of the Four Holy Lands left, they left behind a scarred Jianye Prefecture City, yet at the same time they announced that from today onwards, the owner of Jianye Prefecture City, along with Xiayuan Tao City, would be the Hou Clan.

Xingnan, Jianye, and Hexi originally belonged to Xiayuan Tao, and Nanping Prefecture, also the former territory of Nanjiang, actually measured up in size to a tao, but Hou Yuxiao changed it to Nanping Prefecture for easier management.

The four places added up might not meet the population requirement, but in terms of land area, it was certainly two tao, which is half a province.

Out of the total thirteen provinces in the world, the Hou Clan controlled half of one province.

The Red Flame Army under the three men seemed to also realize the significance of Hou Yuduan's words, their breathing suddenly becoming heavier. They looked up at the three with eyes showing a hint of frenzy and excitement.

From now on, they too would become the masters of this half province.

Among the crowd, Gao Changlong's face showed emotion, after circling his gaze around, he slightly augmented his cultivation, and knelt heavily towards Hou Yuxiao in midair: "Family Head, dominating half of Hexi Province, the Hou Clan's hegemony is within reach!"

Gao Changlong deliberately increased his voice, and his words instantly reached the ears of every Red Flame Army soldier. Everyone seemed to realize something and knelt in droves towards Hou Yuxiao in midair.

"The Hou Clan's hegemony is within reach!"

"The Hou Clan's hegemony is within reach!"

"The Hou Clan's hegemony is within reach!"

......

The hundred thousand Red Flame Army with the lowest cultivation level being the Ten Layers of Body Openings shouted with all their cultivation power, the sound shockingly reaching the clouds, and this deafening shout could be heard within hundreds of miles of Jianye Prefecture City.

Hou Yuxiao had been suppressing the excitement in his heart, but now infected by the army's shout, he no longer held back his emotions, his brow showing his pride fully. He gently waved his hand at the earth below, signaling the crowd to stand up, his expression slightly moved, and spoke loudly:

"This half province owes its existence to the fearless struggle of all you brothers. This grand ambition and hegemony are not achieved by Mr. Hou alone, nor by the Hou Clan alone, but it is the merit of thousands of beings in Hexi, the Red Flame Army, the Zhaoyang Army, and all brothers. From today onwards, Jianye Prefecture City will celebrate with a grand feast for seven days, and I will reward the three armies!"

After hearing Hou Yuxiao's words, the soldiers below showed varying degrees of emotion on their faces.

The nearly hundred thousand Red Flame Army surrounding Jianye Prefecture were already the most loyal to the Hou Clan, as in their training at Baiye Camp, they were infused with ideas of loyalty to the Hou Clan. In truth, even without Hou Yuxiao's words, they wouldn't have had any other thoughts.

Yet, Hou Yuxiao specifically mentioned them, and not just them, but also the Zhaoyang Army, and even thousands of beings in Hexi. People are not plants; who can be without emotion? Not to mention some soldiers of ordinary birth, even those from various major forces with stronger origins felt a slight warmth in their hearts at this moment.

In today's world, aside from their true disciples, the major forces treat ordinary martial artists and those with low cultivation as private property, especially family forces like the Hou Clan.

Not to mention Hou Yuxiao's praises, the attitude he demonstrated in his recent speech, the idea that the Hou Clan's grand ambitions will be jointly achieved with them, is enough to move the majority of hearts.

Since the Tongling incident, the three brothers Gao Changlong, who joined the Hou Clan, present with red-rimmed eyes, looked at Hou Yuxiao with extremely moved expressions.

Without the Hou Clan, they might still be in the Mansion Army of the Rakshasa Holy Sect's Xingnan Prefecture, or died in the chaos between two provinces, or perished elsewhere. How would they have such powerful cultivation in the Yuan Dan Realm today, and the opportunity to command a hundred thousand Red Flame Army in a town?

It is not an exaggeration to say the Hou Clan has recreated them.

The three looked at each other, nodded heavily, and once again bowed towards Hou Yuxiao in the sky, speaking with firm determination:

"We are willing to dedicate our lives to the Family Head!"

"We are willing to dedicate our lives to the Family Head!"

If the first sentence merely expressed the Red Flame Army's joy at the victory in this war, then this statement of willingness to dedicate their lives to the Family Head is the Red Flame Army expressing their unwavering loyalty to the Hou Clan and Hou Yuxiao.

This hundred thousand Red Flame Army includes many who have followed the Hou Clan from early on. In a short decade, the Hou Clan has achieved one victory after another, expanding its influence ever wider, and their treatment, cultivation, and status have all risen significantly during this process.

People vote with their feet.

Why has the Hou Clan's Red Flame Army continued to grow? Could it be that each battle ended in complete victory without any loss?

Absolutely not, not only was it not without loss, it can be said that the casualties from each fierce battle were significant, even winning didn't change that. Yet, the Red Flame Army continued to grow from initially a few thousand, to tens of thousands, to hundreds of thousands, reaching today's hundred and twenty thousand!

Why is that?

It is because of victory!

The Hou Clan truly seems invincible, always winning.

From initially defending Zhaoyang, advancing to Tongling;

To eastward capturing the three Hexi Counties, crossing the river to attack Guangling Prefecture;
