The door creaked open, and Ye Wushuang, Qing Shiyu, and Qing Xian entered the room one after another.

Inside the main bedroom, a screen divided the space. Behind the screen, Qing Mengli, dressed in a casual light blue dress, lay lazily on a spacious bed. It had to be said that although Qing Mengli was already in her thirties, her elegant demeanor, tinged with a hint of languor, added a certain charm that only a mature woman could possess. By her side, Mu Qiqi stood anxiously.

“Did the princess know I was coming?” Ye Wushuang asked with a smile.

Qing Mengli’s voice was gentle as she replied, “With the Dark Soul Hall making such a commotion, even mobilizing over a hundred Dark Soul Guards to head to Qingtian Academy, it would be hard not to notice!”

After a pause, she continued, “You killed Shang Muzhong and Shang Ruxue?”

“Yes, I did,” Ye Wushuang answered calmly.

Hearing his response, Qing Mengli couldn’t help but ask, “So, what are your plans next?”

“To annihilate the Shang Clan,” Ye Wushuang replied, his tone resolute.

“Even with the Dark Soul Hall, you can’t wipe out the Shang Clan,” Qing Mengli pointed out. “Moreover, the Qin, Chu, Xiao, and Liu clans won’t just stand by and do nothing. The five great families have always been closely connected.”

Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “That’s why I’ve come to see Your Highness, the princess.”

Separated by the screen, it seemed as if their eyes met.

…

The events that unfolded in the Qingyun School within Qingtian Academy quickly spread. There was no way to keep it a secret. The Shang Clan had sent dozens of warriors at the Tian Gang realm to kill Ye Wushuang, only to be thwarted by the Dark Soul Hall. The news soon swept through the entire capital.

In the capital, at the Qin Mansion.

The vast Qin Mansion, covering hundreds of acres, was an imposing complex with sprawling palaces, pavilions, and towers. It also featured training grounds, forests, and even small hills, exuding an air of grandeur.

At this moment, Qin Wenjun stood in a grand hall with a grim expression. In front of him, on the main seat, Qin Tari, the head of the clan, also looked somewhat gloomy. Beside Qin Tari stood three figures: Qin Yixuan, the second eldest of the Qin clan, Qin Wanru, the fourth in line, and Qin Yishen, the fifth. As for the third, Qin Tabin… he was already dead.

Qin Wenjun recounted everything he had seen and heard in the Qingyun School, and even now, he still felt a shiver run through his body. He had narrowly escaped death! Faced with the threat of death, he had truly been terrified. Fortunately, the Dark Soul Hall’s intervention had been just a bit late; otherwise, he would definitely not have made it out alive.

“Wenjun, you should go back and rest first,” Qin Yishen said. “We’ll handle the rest. That Ye Wushuang, no matter how bold he is, won’t dare to attack our Qin Mansion!”

“Yes, sir,” Qin Wenjun replied, bowing before exiting the hall.

Qin Yixuan, Qin Wanru, and Qin Yishen all looked at the clan head, Qin Tari, in unison.

“It seems that the third brother, as well as Liu Guangyao and Xiao Demao, were killed by Yuan Pengwang, Xu Yuntian, and Tian Chengwen,” Qin Tari said. The last time the five great families had sent their best warriors to assassinate Ye Wushuang, two at the seventh level of Tian Gang and one at the eighth level had all been killed, and their bodies had been openly displayed outside the city gates. The five great families had never understood who was behind it. But now, they realized!

Ye Wushuang had quietly allied with the Dark Soul Hall!

At that moment, a voice, panting heavily, suddenly came from outside the hall, urgently saying, “Clan head, something terrible has happened!”

“What’s the rush? Has Ye Wushuang come to attack us?” Qin Tari scolded.

“Ye Wushuang has indeed come, but… he’s attacking the Shang Clan’s gates!”

What!

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the four people in the hall changed dramatically.
