Realms In The Firmament

‘You have been using the power of our clans. All the battles that we fought, we fought with blood. No matter how powerful we are, we can’t be doing this forever, can we?

‘You see an organization and you fight it to the end. You mess with the entire world. You are fighting the whole world…

‘The seven clans of us together can never defeat all the organizations in the Limitless Ocean!

‘If we are truly that powerful, why do you think we kept hiding? We should have conquered the entire Limitless Ocean!

‘Why did we wait for you?

‘Behind those great forces, there are the five sky kings. If the royal force is out against us, what should we do? You are the descendant of the Great Ye Clan, so they probably will let you go. As for the seven clans, we will never be let go! The five sky kings always hate the great ancestors of the seven clans. That is why our great ancestors kept staying low!’

…

The Hall of Returning Nature was bursting out roars of killings that shocked the entire City of Chaos.

Ye Xiao stood on top of the fortress of trees in the Hall of Life and Death. After a while, he made a long sigh.

“Lord Monarch, the leader of the Great Ye Army, Master Ye, seems to be… weird.” Bu Xiangfeng was staying with Ye Xiao. It seemed he was quite excited.

The Farewell Sword was fixed, and Bu Xiangfeng became even stronger. Within several months, he had improved a lot. He used to cultivate the Farewell Sword with his own spiritual energy, so he couldn’t focus on the improvement in cultivation. Now that Ye Xiao had reforged the sword for him, the sword needed no special care anymore. Instead, the sword started to support Bu Xiangfeng with the energy inside it. Bu Xiangfeng improved greatly and finally reached the level five of the Saint Origin Stage. He was now the most powerful man in the Monarch’s Hall!

Bu Xiangfeng was excited because he really wanted to go out there to try his power and his sword in a fight against some top-level cultivator.

He used to defeat people who were beyond him at the cultivation level. He was only at level five of the Saint Origin Stage, but it was reasonable that he wanted to challenge some top-level cultivators.

“That’s right. Ye Yunduan is trying to create chaos in the world… In fact, he wants the seven clans’ people to die…” Ye Xiao said, “If he keeps doing this, the seven clans will be enemies to the entire world.”

“The Hall of Returning Nature never surrendered. This time, they were defeated. Their boss must be pretty mad. I think there will be a bigger war soon.”

Ye Xiao blandly smiled.

“Things are going weird these days.” Bu Xiangfeng gloated and said, “That Master Ye may be stupid, but he shouldn’t mess with everybody in the world. It doesn’t make sense.”

Ye Xiao laughed and said, “He knows what he is doing. Besides, the Hall of Returning Nature started this by messing with the two of the seven clans… The Brotherhood Alliance has been busy making troubles to let the Great Ye Army fight the other organizations at the same time.

“All the fights, including the one between the Great Ye Army and the House of Chaotic Storms, must be a part of the plan of the wise man, Shangguan Lingxiao.

“The Brotherhood Alliance got such a humiliation in the City of Chaos. They would never let it go as nothing happened.”

“It seems the Brotherhood Alliance has been quiet, but do you really think they would just let it go?” Ye Xiao blandly smiled and said, “The Brotherhood Alliance is seeking revenge. Master Bai of the House of Chaotic Storms and Master Meng of the Hall of Returning Nature cannot avoid being involved!

“Obviously, there is another reason. They are too far away, so they can’t make direct orders to their people in the city.”

“That is true. But I don’t think Ye Yunduan is that good. He’s an idiot!” Bu Xiangfeng angrily said.

“Old Bu, I underestimated that man, too. He seems to be hasty for profits and messes around against everybody. However, after what happened recently, I believe he is a wise and cunning person. He seems to be reckless, but he is using the other forces to kill the seven clans’ people. Well, he went too far in attempting to kill the Red Phoenix today, and the woman saw through his mind. The seven clans were almost under his control. Think about it. He is making use of all the other organizations to serve his own purpose! That is such a clever man! He is indeed the descendant of the Great Ye Clan. I am impressed.” Ye Xiao said, “The Hall of Returning Nature has been forced out. The next target must be the House of Chaotic Storms. The House of Chaotic Storms is much more difficult to fight than the Hall of Returning Nature.”

Ye Xiao looked to the west, where the House of Chaotic Storms was located. “When all these organizations are cleared out of the city, the true play will be on.”

Bu Xiangfeng said, “What a surprise. When should we make our move?”

“We keep hiding.” Ye Xiao sighed and said, “We are still too weak… A few fights could kill all the men of ours…”

He thought for a while and said, “I think the House of Chaotic Storms can at least hold it for one month… It could be much longer if Master Bai shows up. One month is all we have to improve ourselves.”

“What if that Master Bai comes? How long do we have?” Bu Xiangfeng asked.

“If he comes, nobody can kick him out of this place. Oh, as a matter of fact, if he comes, the House of Chaotic Storms will become the only conqueror of the city.” Ye Xiao said, “Even the seven great ancestors of the seven clans won’t be able to stop him.”

“Oh…” Bu Xiangfeng took in a breath of cold air. He apparently didn’t expect such a high comment.

“Relax. I know Master Bai. He won’t care about the City of Chaos. It is too small. The House of Chaotic Storms will leave eventually. When the House of Chaotic Storms is gone, we become useless to the Great Ye Army.” Ye Xiao blandly smiled and said, “Then we will be the last target.

“Even if we don’t want to move, we have to.” Ye Xiao said, “The one month is all we have. We must grow stronger. Please tell everybody to work harder. We must improve greatly for the future!”

Bu Xiangfeng was frightened, and he was excited too.

‘Finally… It is our turn, isn’t it?’
