Qin Tari quickly lowered his head.
But Liu Ergeng spoke up, “Clan Leader Qin, my ancestor has his own plans. Does it require your interference?”
Qin Tari hastily replied, “I dare not, I… I just don’t understand…”
In the past, when Liu Ergeng, the second master of the Liu Clan, saw Qin Tari, he would smile and take care of him with great caution.
But now…
Everything was completely reversed!
It was then that Liu Zhengzong finally spoke, “This is also the reason I summoned the three of you here.”
“The ancestor has said that the people of the Ye Clan must not be killed. They are to be confined within the Ye Mansion, and we must ensure they do not escape.”
“Everything will be resolved once Ye Wushuang returns from the Hundred Nations’ Martial Contest!”
“The people of the Ye Clan are the leverage to control Ye Wushuang!”
The three clan leaders nodded in agreement, but in their hearts, they cursed Liu Zhengzong, Liu Ergeng, and the Liu Clan’s peak Wanfa ancestor to the heavens.
Three months ago, the Shang Clan was annihilated.
The Liu Clan, which had the capability to rescue the Shang Clan and kill Ye Wushuang, chose not to act.
Now, with Ye Wushuang absent, they had instead joined forces with the other clans to strike.
What kind of thinking was this?
In reality, Liu Zhengzong understood it all too well.
The ancestor within the clan had long been suffering from the backlash of cultivation, a problem that had persisted for centuries without resolution, which was why he never made an appearance.
Everyone outside assumed that the ancestor had long passed away.
In truth, the ancestor had been healing his injuries, waiting for this very moment.
Now, the ancestor had returned to his peak, and was even stronger than before.
The Ye Clan’s time was up!
As for why the ancestor was waiting for Ye Wushuang’s return, Liu Zhengzong wasn’t entirely clear.
But the ancestor was the hope of the Liu Clan, and all they needed to do was follow his orders!
Liu Zhengzong continued, “Tomorrow morning, the three of you will accompany me to the Ye Mansion. We will spare the lives of the important figures, but the rest will be executed.”
“As for the royal family, anyone who dares to interfere will be put to death without mercy!”
Liu Zhengzong smiled and said, “Gentlemen, with the Ye Clan destroyed, the Qing Clan will also be unable to withstand the combined assault of our four clans.”
“At that time, my Liu Clan will become the royal family of the Qingyun Empire, and the three of you will be ennobled as marquises!”
Bah!
Who gives a damn about your marquis title!
The Qing Clan was originally the royal family, but it couldn’t suppress the other clans.
Now things had changed.
With the rise of the Liu Clan, the other three clans would have to bow and submit!
In this way, over time, the foundations of the three major clans would be completely drained, and the Liu Clan would become the true first family of the Qingyun Empire, the strongest royal house!
“Alright, go back and prepare tonight!”
The three clan leaders left the hall, exchanged a glance, and shook their heads bitterly before departing.
The next day, early in the morning, the sky was gloomy, pressing down on people as if they could hardly breathe.
Inside the Ye Mansion.
“Where is everyone?”
In the central courtyard’s mourning hall.
Yuan Pengwang, Xu Yuntian, and Tian Chengwen were all agape.
Ye Wushuang was gone.
Uncle He’s coffin was gone as well.
Soon after, Ye Yunzhe appeared.
“Third master, the master… is gone!” Yuan Pengwang said anxiously.
Ye Yunzhe looked at the empty mourning hall and his expression changed: “This guy… he really has gone mad.”
“Summon everyone immediately, and notify Qing Mu as well. Let’s set off!”
Yuan Pengwang was stunned and asked, “Set off? Where to?”
“Where else? Of course, to the Chu Mansion!”
Ye Yunzhe shouted and hurriedly left.
At the same time.
In Qingtian City, at the Chu Clan’s Chu Mansion.
Chu Gongyao had woken up early in the morning, but in reality, he hadn’t slept a wink the entire night.
“Summon all the Tian Gang, Yuanfu, and Ningmai warriors within the clan to gather at the Liu Clan. If we’re late, that bastard Liu Zhengzong will scold us again!”
Chu Gongyao cursed, “Damn it, how could the Liu Clan have a peak Wanfa person? This is really… damn it!”
And just at that moment.
“Clan leader, clan leader!”
A voice, panicked and flustered, rang out as the person rushed in and knelt down.
“What’s the rush? What kind of demeanor is this? Has the Ye Clan attacked?” Chu Gongyao scolded angrily.
“Clan leader, it’s the Ye Clan that’s attacking!”
“What?”
Chu Gongyao was stunned.
A Tian Gang realm warrior beside him shouted, “What nonsense! The Ye Clan is holed up in their mansion, too afraid to even step outside!”
The person reporting, panting heavily, said, “It’s… it’s Ye Wushuang!”
The moment these three words were spoken, the entire hall fell into a deathly silence.
