The Battle Through Heaven
Primary Disaster
The Jia Ma Sacred City was the capital of the Jia Ma Empire. Being the most bustling city of the entire empire, the flow of humans that were consumed and released every day had reached quite a frightening number. However, this bustling city was somewhat suppressing the current atmosphere. There was a faint distressed feeling from the brewed storm.
Such a feeling was naturally scattered and created by the Primer clan, who suddenly announced the temporary closure of all the auction houses and shops. This action by one of the three great clans of the empire was undoubtedly indicated to everyone that/it was a big problem going to fall on their heads.
The public is not short of some well-informed people. Therefore, there were some rumors spreading that the/it Misty Cloud Sect had plans to exterminate the Primer clan.
This rumor immediately caused a huge commotion within the city as it spread. The people from the Jia Ma Empire could clearly see that the/it Misty Cloud Sect had become increasingly arrogant these few years. Moreover, other than the imperial family, the only faction within the entire Jia Ma Empire that could lead to the Primer clan, which had become the peak of the three great clans, was, to act so carefully was probably only the Misty Cloud Sect, which was a short distance away from the capital …
The atmosphere inside the Primer clan headquarters, located in the south of the city was extremely tense while rumors spread throughout the city. Fidgety human figures paced the mansion. All the guards were also re-deployed from elsewhere to guard this house very tightly. A countless number of bunches of arrows that had flashes of cold flickering in the darkness swayed unsteadily throughout the mansion. A sharp long arrow would instantly get shot at the sight of an uninvited guest!
While a human figure rushed throughout the mansion, the atmosphere in the spacious meeting room in the middle of the house was extremely tense. All the people sitting in that place were core members of the Primer clan. At this moment, their expressions were mostly ugly. Of course, perhaps anyone in the Jia Ma Empire who had suddenly become a target of the Misty Cloud Sect would have difficulty forming a smile on their face.
” Ya Fei, is the news that/it Misty Cloud Sect will attack our Primer clan true? ” An old man in the hall frowned and asked gently.
All the gazes in the hall shot towards the beautiful woman sitting on the leader's seat when they heard the old man's question. The latter's dazzling face was also covered with a serious expression at this moment. He nodded slightly before everyone's eyes and said, ’First Elder, this news is indeed true. It is very likely that/it Misty Cloud Sect will actually act in two days! ’
Even though everyone already had an answer in their hearts, the faces of many people in the hall still darkened after hearing Ya Fei's confirmation.
The face of the old man called the First Elder was rather familiar. If one were to observe him carefully, one would realize that/that he was the current head of the Primer clan, Primer Tengshan. However, hearing the way in which Ya Fei called out to him, it seemed like she had handed over the position of clan head during these three years …
Primer Tengshan slowly sighed as he heard Ya Fei's words. He descended into silence amidst the desperate state of the clan.
’’ All this is because those people are from the Xiao clan. If we don't help them, we won't offend the Misty Cloud Sect and today's matter won't happen! ” A rather sharp voice sounded under the pressure brought by the three words ‘Misty Cloud Sect’. Quite a number of deals were soon followed when the voice was heard. Clearly, they were finally unable to hold the thoughts in their hearts when disaster struck.
’’ You all shut up! ’’ Primer Tengshan immediately became angry when he heard the voice in the Meeting Room. His palm hit the table hard. A loud voice that suddenly shocked everyone calmed down.
Primer Tengshan looked at the calm-faced man sitting in a wheelchair beside him after suppressing everyone. He immediately glanced at Hai Bodong's cold face with his eyes closed beside Ya Fei. He laughed bitterly and said, ” Master Xiao Ding, my clan members have lost themselves and allowed you to see the joke. ’
Xiao Ding smiled and shook his head when he heard Primer Tengshan's words. His gaze slowly swept across everyone's faces. Anyone who exchanged glances with him would subconsciously turn their gaze away a moment later. Although this man's legs were currently paralyzed, everyone would involuntarily feel a slight chill for some unknown reason when they saw the face where a faint smile was hung.
His clan was almost destroyed and he had turned into a country where he became a cripple who could only rely on his wheelchair. This sudden change was enough to drive ordinary people crazy. However, this man seemed to be completely unaffected. The way it was as if he was emotionless .. This kind of person was indeed very frightening.
” First Elder Tengshan, this matter is indeed related to our Xiao clan .. ” Xiao Ding laughed. His gaze swept towards Primer Tengshan as he said, ” If the Misty Cloud Sect really wants to attack the Primer clan, you can hand me or even half of the clan members over to them. After that, you can announce that/that this is all the remaining people of the Xiao clan. Please try to think of a way to secretly let the other clan members go. The Xiao clan might meet with a great disaster but a portion of our blood should remain! ’
Many people in the hall were somewhat stunned when they heard Xiao Ding's words. The coldness in their hearts became stronger as they looked at the smile hanging on the forming face. With a casual tone, he turned himself in and half his clan came out. This tactic cannot be described as non-violent.
Primer Tengshan's eyelids also twitched Xiao Ding's words. He deeply stared at the smiling Xiao Ding before he spoke calmly in his heart, ‘’He may be young but he remains completely rational. The Xiao clan did not need to worry that/it could not prosper with such talent. Unfortunately..”
’’ Hi Old .. ’’ Xiao Ding surprised. His eyes, which were like an old well without ripples, also started to fluctuate a little. He clearly understood in his heart that/that if Ya Fei and Hai Bodong did not try their best to protect them within the Primer clan, it was likely that the Xiao clan had already lost their protection. However, he did not expect that/that Hai Bodong was still this stubborn after things had progressed to this stage. He was even willing to lose half of the Primer clan.
’’Hai Tua, are you still waiting for the third brother to return ..’ ’Xiao Ding laughed bitterly before she sighed softly. At this moment, even he no longer had great confidence. Perhaps, he could only hope that/it Xiao Yan would be able to return in the future and help take revenge for the Xiao clan.
” Ha ha, I believe in that person .. ” Hai Bodong laughed out loud. His gaze immediately glanced at Primer Tengshan at the side and snorted coldly, ” You all only know how to be farsighted like rats. Do you think that/that Misty Cloud Sect really decided to attack us, the Primer clan, because of the Xiao clan? It's not as if you weren't aware of their activities these few years. The three great imperial clans and even the imperial family. Hmph, just wait and see who will make it through. ’
Primer Tengshan was silent. He immediately laughed bitterly and sighed. How could he not be aware that the/it Misty Cloud Sect was currently showing signs of clearing the factions in the empire. However, it would be best if they could delay this a little longer. Hai Bodong was a true Great Elder within the clan. There was no doubt about his credit in allowing the Primer clan to have its current status. He did not even dare to argue with her. Of course, if Hai Bodong did not have an excellent reputation within the Primer clan, with just Ya Fei's ability alone, he would have a hard time controlling the clan regardless of her abilities.
”What should we do now? Why don't we ask for help from the Mu clan, the Nalan clan, the Alchemist Association, or the imperial family? ” Primer Tengshan sighed again.
” This is useless .. ” Ya Fei shook her head. His soft finger gently tapped on the table as his bright eyes swept across the large hall. He said, ” Misty Cloud's current strength is too great. They did not even dare to provoke them. If they really wanted to help us, they would send people without us asking for help. If they did not want to or dared not, any request for help would not help the situation. ’
” Then ... do we just sit here and wait to die? ” Some people in the hall can hold it no longer as they requested.
Ya Fei raised her eyes, turned her head and spoke to Primer Tengshan, the ” First Elder, to prepare for the worst, I have secretly sent several younger generations of our Primer clan out of the capital to protect our clan bloodline. If it really comes to that stage, I am worried that/that besides giving up, we can only fight to the death! ’
” Ugh, son, you are really thinking ahead to really prepare for our clan's escape route. However, such a situation ... was also too dire, ” Primer Tengshan was shocked when he heard this. It seemed like he had just realized these things.
” Surrender .. I don't think that/that's our end will be any good if we do. ”
’’ Bang! ’’
Primer Tengshan sighed again. He was just about to speak when the entire sky of the Jia Ma Empire suddenly let out a thunder-like explosion.
The explosion continued unceasingly, causing the entire landscape of the city to be thrown into the sky. At this moment, a cloud agglomerated from energy formed at the source of the explosion. On the side of the cloud was a longsword that emitted a sharp aura as it pierced straight towards the first one.
” This is a signal of Misty Cloud Sect ... ” The whole city erupted into an exclamation wave as they saw a sign of special energy in the sky. Some sensitive people display surprised faces. Does this Misty Cloud Sect really want to attack the Primer clan?
Quite a number of people stormed out of the hall within the Primer clan. They saw the mark in the sky and their expressions immediately turned pale white.
’’ Primer Clan, hand over the remaining members of the Xiao clan. Otherwise, today will be the day your clan is eliminated! ’
The cold and indifferent cry brought by the powerful Dou Qi back then rumbled like thunder in the entire Jia Ma Sacred City not long after the mark appeared! If you find any errors (broken links, non-standard content, etc.), please let us know so that we can fix them as soon as possible.
