However, Ye Wentian of the past was from the Ye family, which was once a formidable clan within the Imperial Capital. Ye Wentian’s rise to power transformed the Ye family into the Ye Clan within just a few decades. In the Qingyun Empire, not every family or force is worthy of being called a “clan.”
Five hundred years ago, Ye Wentian disappeared. The vast Ye Clan, under the combined assault of the Five Great Clans, the Holy Dan Sect, and the Tianji Mansion, collapsed like a house of cards and ceased to exist. But now, a descendant of the Ye Clan, Ye Wushuang, has emerged!
This young man’s situation is even more dire than that of Ye Wentian five hundred years ago. Yet, he is now stirring up a storm!
Qin Hongtian immediately questioned, “Do you truly believe that this young man, with only the Dark Soul Hall, can annihilate the Shang Clan?”
“The Shang Clan is the weakest of the Five Great Clans, but the Dark Soul Hall is not much stronger than the Shang Clan. Or perhaps, it is slightly inferior,” Yun Xingjian replied with a sense of helplessness. “I know that, but my responsibility is to keep an eye on your Qin Clan. As for the rest, I truly have no idea…”
“Moreover, even if the Dark Soul Hall is no match for the Shang Clan, this move will essentially force the Shang Clan off the stage of the Five Great Clans. Seeing the Shang Clan’s decline, wouldn’t your four clans take the opportunity to stomp on them and strengthen yourselves?”
Yun Xingjian’s words left Qin Hongtian speechless.
“The Five Great Clans have always been united because, despite some differences, the gaps between you are not significant. This time, whether Ye Wushuang succeeds or fails, the Shang Clan will be severely weakened. Knowing that this ally is no longer viable, you five clans will surely devour it!”
At this point, Yun Xingjian said with a sigh, “Alright, alright, let’s focus on fishing and see what happens later!” Qin Hongtian quietly sighed and fell silent.
Meanwhile, within the Qin Clan’s grand hall, Mu Yunxuan, Baili Moxuan, Feng Luochen, and Li Changqing had truly brought a chessboard and approached the four men led by Qin Tari. They set up the pieces, preparing to play a serious game of chess. The Qin Clan was effectively detained by the people from the Qingyun Academy!
At the same time, within the Liu Clan, Liu Zhengzong and Liu Zhengyuan had already received the news. Liu Zhengyuan had already begun to rally the clan members, gathering those at the Tian Gang realm and the Yuan Fu realm, waiting for the clan leader Liu Zhengzong’s order to march and aid the Shang Clan. Ye Wushuang was courting disaster! Not only had he killed Liu Yiyu, but he had also killed Liu Yingyue this time. The Liu Clan vowed to avenge their fallen members!
At this moment, Clan Leader Liu Zhengzong was in a secret chamber.
“Ancestor…”
Liu Zhengzong bowed respectfully.
“What do you want now?” The ancient voice echoed again from the palace secret chamber, tinged with a hint of impatience.
Liu Zhengzong immediately relayed the news to the ancestor within the chamber.
“Ye Wushuang…”
The voice, deep and slow, said, “Since that’s the case, you should lead some people to help the Shang Clan. It would not be good if the Shang Clan were to be annihilated at the moment.”
“Yes!”
Liu Zhengzong turned and left immediately. Behind him, the ancestor’s voice continued, “Remember, do not act rashly. Take dozens of Tian Gang realm cultivators and hundreds of Yuan Fu realm cultivators. There is no need to risk too many lives from our Liu Clan for the sake of the Shang Clan!”
“I understand, Ancestor!”
Liu Zhengzong, of course, knew this. The Dark Soul Hall and the Shang Clan were evenly matched. This time, Ye Wushuang had courted his own demise by leading the strong from the Dark Soul Hall to attack the Shang Clan. If the Liu Clan, Qin Clan, Chu Clan, and Xiao Clan each sent some people to join forces with the Shang Clan, they could easily annihilate the Dark Soul Hall.
The Dark Soul Hall was the number one underground force in the Qingyun Empire, slightly inferior to the Five Great Clans but not by much. By eliminating the Dark Soul Hall, the Five Great Clans and the Shang Clan would not gain much advantage, but the four clans could directly divide the Dark Soul Hall’s resources, which would definitely lead to a significant increase in their family strength!
Liu Zhengzong quickly arrived outside the secret chamber, in front of a martial training ground of the Liu Mansion. Liu Zhengyuan had already been waiting there.
Liu Zhengyuan stepped forward and asked, “Brother, what did the ancestor say?”
“Send a part of our people.”
Liu Zhengyuan immediately understood.
At this moment, Liu Zhengzong looked at the hundreds of Liu Clan warriors in the training ground and said, “The Shang Clan is a friend of our Liu Clan. Now Ye Wushuang is extremely arrogant, killing our Liu Clan members and even attempting to annihilate the Shang Clan. We, the Liu Clan, should help the Shang Clan…”
“Do not go!”
Before Liu Zhengzong could finish his sentence, a voice suddenly rang out in his mind. It was the ancestor’s voice!
Do not go?
What does that mean?
