“This reckless boy actually dared to attack the Shang clan!” exclaimed Qin Yixuan in astonishment. “With just the Dark Soul Hall, does he really think he can do this?”
“He’s gone mad!” Qin Wanru echoed, her disbelief evident in her voice.
Only Qin Yishen frowned deeply and said, “For some reason, I feel uneasy in my heart…”
No one had anticipated that things would escalate to this point. Initially, the five great clans had underestimated Ye Wushuang, thinking he was nothing more than a minor disturbance that their younger generations could easily handle. After all, it would be beneath the top warriors of the five clans to personally target a mere Condensation Meridian or Elemental Palace realm cultivator. However, by the time the five clans began to take Ye Wushuang seriously, they realized it was already too late to eliminate him.
“Clan leader, what should we do?” Qin Yixuan looked to Qin Tari for guidance. It was time to make a decision.
Qin Tari abruptly stood up and snorted, “The five great clans have always stood united, and that is the core reason we have been able to stand against the royal family for the past five hundred years. Since Ye Wushuang has dared to lead an attack on the Shang clan, we will strike with full force and eliminate him once and for all!”
“Qin Yixuan!”
“Qin Wanru!”
“Qin Yishen!”
The three of them turned their attention to Qin Tari.
“Summon all the Tiangang and Elemental Palace realm cultivators currently in the capital, and head to the Shang clan!”
At that very moment, a figure approached the grand hall, his steps unhurried. As the four men turned their gazes, their expressions turned strange.
“Yun Xingjian!”
Qin Tari’s expression changed upon seeing Yun Xingjian enter the core area of the Qin residence without anyone reporting his arrival. The timing and context of Yun Xingjian’s visit were unmistakable.
“Clan leader Qin, are you in such a bad temper?” Yun Xingjian, dressed in a long robe, appeared calm and composed, smiling gently. “What’s going on? Are you planning to leave?”
Qin Tari snorted, “Yun Xingjian, what brings you here?”
“Oh, it’s like this!” Yun Xingjian said with a smile. “Qin Beixiu of the Qin clan is one of the seven senior council members of Qingyun Academy. Since this elder has passed away, I’m here to discuss with Clan Leader Qin whether there is a suitable candidate from the Qin clan to be recommended to Qingyun Academy as a senior council member.”
Qin Tari’s dissatisfaction was evident. “Yun Xingjian, are you here to stop me?”
“Stop you? What are you talking about?” Yun Xingjian feigned curiosity. “I came to show my sincerity.”
“Oh, so you think your sincerity isn’t enough, huh? No problem. Mu Yunxuan, Bai Limu, Feng Luochen, and Li Changqing are all here. Let’s all sit down and have a good chat.”
“After all, the position of senior council member at Qingyun Academy is of great importance and should be thoroughly discussed.”
Qin Tari’s expression darkened.
“Yun Xingjian, are you implying that you’re siding with the Ye clan?”
Yun Xingjian continued, “Clan Leader Qin, what are you talking about?”
“Yun Xingjian!!!” Qin Tari’s voice suddenly rose sharply. “You’re here to stop the Qin clan for Ye Wushuang, aren’t you? Do you really think the Qin clan dares not to confront you openly?”
Yun Xingjian feigned surprise. “Clan Leader Qin, I’m just here to discuss the selection of a senior council member. Why are you so angry?”
“What does Ye Wushuang or the Ye clan have to do with the senior council member?”
“Moreover, I plan to visit the Chu, Liu, Shang, and Xiao clans one by one to discuss and consult as well.”
Seeing Yun Xingjian’s feigned ignorance, Qin Tari’s anger flared.
“It seems you think you’re invincible at the Wanfa realm within the capital,” Qin Tari snorted. “Yun Xingjian, let me remind you that the Wanfa realm is not just occupied by you and Qing Muyuan.”
“I misunderstood. I really am just here to discuss the selection of a senior council member.”
Yun Xingjian refused to admit any wrongdoing.
“But if Clan Leader Qin feels that his peak Tiangang realm can contend with the Wanfa realm, I, Yun Xingjian, would be more than happy to oblige!”
“Why don’t we have a little sparring right here? It has been years since we last fought, and I must say, I’ve grown a bit complacent.”
As Yun Xingjian finished speaking, the expressions of Qin Tari and his men turned even more grim.
