GACHA SOVEREIGN

561 Main Clan

Two months later,

Song Yu kept staring at the white barrier that hid everything inside. It had been a frustrating two months as there was no change in the barrier.

"Father, it has been two months. What are we going to do here?" Song Yu took a glance at her father's worried expression. Because of this situation, Song Qiang asked Song Lei to go back to the clan as the situation became unstable with the long absence of their patriarch.

The same applied to the other influences as a few of them decided to go back to bring the information about Alexander Sirius.

However, it would seem that all Martial Monarchs were here to wait until Alex came out. After all, if the Martial Monarchs were not here, no one could stop Spirit Nest.

"We are going to wait here. Song Yu, you have a bright future in front of you, why don't you leave this place to me? I would bring him away from this place." Song Qiang smiled gently.

"Still…" Song Yu looked very adamant, wondering what she could do. She thought for a while before shaking his head. "At the very least, I would love to see the conclusion of this event. Don't worry, I will quickly flee from the area as soon as they move. I have this hearing ability anyway."

"..." Song Qiang was astounded. It was true that their target was Alex. However, they might change their target in case they wanted to stop him from helping the Spirit Nest. He brought Song Lei for that purpose as she wouldn't easily be captured with Song Lei protecting her.

Unfortunately, the inheritance took too long, forcing Song Lei to handle the family unrest.

"Song Yu, this is going to be a big battle…" Song Qiang looked at her with a grim expression.

"I know, Grandfather. I have confidence in my escape ability… Besides, this won't be the first time I escape…" Song Yu said with a half-sad half-assuring tone.

"There is still one more thing that I am concerned about… I don't know why the Spirit Nest suddenly left this place. I have searched for them but only come back empty-handed. I am sure the others are the same." Song Qiang sighed, wondering what was inside the barrier.

Song Qiang closed his eyes completely, recalling the matter two months ago.

Two months ago...

Song Yu didn't know this as she was still receiving her reward from the trial.

When the tension filled the air as the influences discussed Alex's matter.

The Spirit Nest suddenly gathered around, debating over something. Not long after Sherry, Kyle, and Stina came back, they abruptly left the scene like abandoning their leader.

"Father, they…" Song Lei furrowed his eyebrows, wondering why they would leave. For a united influence like them, they would surely not leave their leader behind.

"Understood." Song Lei obviously knew the reason and disappeared.

He looked at Song Yu and Song Jia, who were receiving their reward. "If only little Yu is here… she could listen to what they said and make my job easier."

…

Just as he recalled this thing, ten people suddenly appeared in the sky and released their Spiritual Energy.

This aura jolted his mind as he abruptly opened his eyes and looked up.

"Elder… Junior Song Qiang greets Third Elder and Fourth Elder." Song Qiang suddenly bowed his head to the two old men in the sky.

"Grandfather?" Song Yu was astounded, wondering who the two old men were for her grandfather suddenly acted like this. A few seconds later, she looked toward the other people and noticed who they were.

"Song Qiang… It's been so long…" The Fourth Elder smiled as he descended to his level, raising him.

"I am not worthy of the Fourth Elder's concern…" Song Qiang humbly said.

"Come on… you used to call me Old Yi, and now you are so humble to me." He gently smiled as he patted Song Qiang's shoulders.

"I… I am not qualified. I have failed Elder."

"Haha… why do you bring the past… You didn't fail me in the past. It was me who failed you. You should already become a Martial Saint and take my post if I didn't fail you. Haiz… Now, I don't have any successor for my spot."

As he said, if Song Qiang didn't go to the Northern Continent, he wouldn't limit his talent with the amount of Spiritual Energy around.

"Elder…"

"Who is she? Would you introduce her to me?" The fourth elder turned around, glancing at Song Yu.

"She is my granddaughter, Song Yu. Come here, Song Yu, introduce yourself to Elder Song Yi. He took care of me when I was in the main clan."

Song Yu hesitated for a second, looking at this elderly. Maybe it was the gen or something; the elder also had blonde hair like her. His aged face looked very fragile, but his Spiritual Energy was powerful. She looked at his gentle smile before clasping her hands politely. "Song Yu greets Elder Song Yi."

"Haha… To think you already have a granddaughter." Song Yi laughed.

"Yes. She is my proud granddaughter. Her talent is even above mine…" Song Qiang smiled proudly.

"Hmm… After all, she has reached the previous record."

"Hmm… Although this trial is only on this continent, I still follow the result. After all, the one who managed to set the highest record could become a high-level Martial Saint. As expected of you…" Song Yi smiled before nodding his head to Song Yu.

"Elder, may I know for what reason you come to this place?" Song Qiang asked and glanced at the other people before continuing, "Especially with the Fire God Clan…"

Song Yi pondered for a moment before saying, "Nothing. I am here just to help you because of the friction between you and the Fire God Clan. We just made a peace treaty with them, so if you attack them, then the main Fire God Clan would have the right to remove this unofficial branch.

"After considering many things, we have decided that it is good to have an alliance with them. I heard you also had been haunted by another influence called Spirit Nest…

"When I heard that a first-rate influence was destroyed and you will be the next, I have no choice other than to help you. After all, you were my successor…

"With the conflict between your Blackwade Clan and Fire God Clan, you wouldn't be able to fight them. That's why I am coming to this place to destroy the Spirit Nest for you." Song Yi smiled as he wanted to solve Song Qiang's trouble.

However, Song Qiang was literally speechless. There was only one thought in his mind at this moment, 'We've been had!'

"Sh*t!" Song Qiang gritted his teeth.

"Don't throw a curse word in front of me." The fourth elder smacked his head out of habit.

"I am sorry, Elder… I am frustrated about the fact that we have been played." Song Qiang facepalmed as he glanced at the Fire God Clan.

"What do you mean?" The Fourth Elder tilted his head in confusion.

"They are spouting lies. They know that the influences from Heavenly Continent don't really think highly about the matter on Sacred Continent or Northern Continent. By using that fact, they instigated the clan to make a peace alliance." Song Qiang was sweating profusely.

"I still couldn't understand."

"The real enemy of the Blackwade Clan is none other than Fire God Clan and Joyful Union Sect. For some reason, our interest aligned with the Spirit Nest and destroyed the Joyful Union Sect together.

"After that, we would deal with the Fire God Clan by ourselves. However, this peace treaty stopped this plan. Not only we couldn't attack the Fire God Clan, but they could also destroy the Spirit Nest."

"What?" Song Yi was astounded. He looked down, weighing something in his mind. One thing was strange for him as he asked, "Why the Fire God Clan placed such an importance on this matter? What kind of influence is this Spirit Nest?"

"They could raise five million Spirit Gems within two years. Having two monarchs at the moment, but the most terrifying would be their potentials. Firstly, they have two 7-Star Martial Emperors kids. I believe they are less than twenty years old. Then another kid at Martial Monarch Stage."

Song Yi was astounded, but before he could express how shocked he was, Song Qiang continued, "I believe the most terrifying one would be their leader. He just completed this trial."

"This trial? If I am not wrong, the last record is 943rd plank, right? And that person managed to become a high-level Martial Saint on the Heavenly Continent."

"Yeah. That's the problem. For some reason, they only sent four people to enter the trial. However, one of them managed to surpass the record by one plank. The two Martial Emperor kids reached 970th and 980th planks respectively.

"Still…" Song Qiang paused for a moment, creating tension. "As expected the most terrifying person would be their leader. Song Yu became his Senior Sister a few years ago… and he was only a weak Martial Master at that time. In less than a decade, he somehow managed to get into Martial Emperor and beat this trial. If Elder looks at the trial place, you would be able to see a barrier inside. Their leader has been receiving the inheritance for about two months."

"What?!" Song Yi was astounded and flew to the sky, finding the barrier inside. "This… We… We have been had!"

He instantly realized that they just created misinformation to make the Blackwade Clan unable to protect a genius like Alex. Even the third elder furrowed his eyebrows.

"Elder… There is actually one more thing I need to say about him," said Song Qiang after Song Yi descended.

"What?"

"He actually possesses our VIP card, and it has two 'V' on the card just like the rumor. I want to ask if Elder knows something about this?"

"What did you say?" Song Yi grabbed his arms and asked dumbfoundedly.

The third elder dropped his jaw to the ground.

"I… I don't know the details, but according to the rumor that is going around the elder seats, it is a Supreme VIP Card. Only the patriarch and the grand elder would know about the real issue. If he really possesses such a card, then I can break the treaty to protect him."

"Is that true?" Song Qiang was happy with this conclusion. Even the Fire God Clan wouldn't touch Alex easily if this were the case.

"However, we still have another problem. Firstly, even if we try to fight it out, the Fire God Clan still has a justified reason to kill him. Even if we fight it out, we only have two 7-Star Martial Saints with us. On the other hand, they have two 7-Star Martial Saints, five 1-Star Martial Saints, and their young master, a Peak Martial Monarch. I don't know why a person like him would come, but this is certainly a matter of importance." Song Yi took a deep breath, pondering what he could do at this moment.

The third elder looked at them mysteriously, wondering about something.

On the other hand, Song Qiang said, "How about asking for reinforcement? Seeing there is no news about him for two months, he would most likely need more time. His influence also disappeared mysteriously two months ago, so they must know he needed more time inside."

"Hmm… That is a good idea." Song Yi nodded while glancing at the Fire God Clan. At first, he thought he would need to kidnap their young master, Ryan Hinga, and use him as a hostage to retreat. However, seeing that Alexander would need more time, he could certainly ask for reinforcement.

"I won't let you do as you wish." Song Yi muttered with a grim expression.

Unfortunately, even if he didn't let Fire God Clan do as they wish, fate said otherwise.

*Crack!*

The cracking sound alarmed everyone in the area as they saw the barrier started crumbling.

*Clang!*

One second later after the cracking sound, the barrier shattered into pieces.
