Chapter 882: The Doubts of the Four Clans

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Li Yunmu heard the system’s words, he became absent-minded while looking before himself. The system’s words were like a question. Asura alone could kill four ancient gods, which made the other ancient gods hesitate.

After the battle between Land of Ice against the combined forces of Lanlou and the Ocean region, all ancient gods had suffered injuries. Only Asura, with his scheming, faked heavy injuries while in truth not even a hair on his head had been touched.

The instant all the ancient gods were attacked by Asura, the outcome of the battle would be decided. If all the ancient gods and Asura staked their lives on the fight, then undoubtedly the ones to win would be the numerous gods. But if they did so, then apart from Lakshmi, who was only a small fraction of a soul, the other five ancient gods would perish as well.

This was the reason why the ancient gods decided to retreat after gathering outside Asura City.

No one wanted to become cannon fodder in the battle between gods. Thus, the situation in Lanlou turned even more delicate. A balance existed between Asura and the six ancient gods.

Asura could get a one up and stabilize his situation or the six ancient gods could completely recover from their injuries first.

That’s when the battle between the gods would be unleashed.

“Naturally, we must try to start the battle of gods in advance. I can’t stay in Lanlou for a hundred years. Dragon Lady and my daughter cannot wait that long. Also, I don’t know how Little Bu is doing,” Li Yunmu slowly said after pondering over multitudes of thoughts.

After making a trip to Lakshmi City, not only could he see the situation of Little Bu and Ancient God Lakshmi, he could launch the battle of gods in advance. But before that, he had to drive out Yan Xiu off his land.

When night descended, the entire ore mountain turned somber and desolate. West wind was blowing from the east side and cutting into the skin. In a tent within the camp, Yan Xiu was sitting upright on a chair while holding a spotlessly white jade tile in his hand.

He shot a ray of divine power into the jade tile, and ripples appeared on the surface. A deep, manly voice came from within the tile.

“Yan Xiu, why did you find me?”

Yan Xiu clasped the jade tile with both hands and respectfully said, “Clan patriarch, did the four clans really dispatch fifteen gods to kill Chen Xiu?”

After hearing such a question, Jiao Xiu, who was sitting far away from the tile,had a premonition that something was wrong. After a moment of silence, he asked , “What did you mean by those words?”

…

“Chen Xiu is at the ore mountain. He arrived just now, in the evening,” Yan Xiu stated.

Jiao Xiu, sitting in the main seat of the residence, felt his heart lurch to a stop, and his expression turned wooden. The smile hanging on the face of the three clan patriarchs, sitting around him, disappeared as well.

Although the evening had come, the four clan patriarchs were still sitting in the main hall. They hadn’t returned to their respective clans so as to wait for the fifteen gods to return with the cultivation method. While waiting, the four were scheming about regaining the resource lands as well as suppressing Ground Clan to turn them into the subordinate force of the four clans.

A good conclusion was already written, so they only had to wait for the fifteen gods to return with the good news.

But Yan Xiu surprisingly said that Chen Xiu had already reached the ore mountain and was completely unscathed.

Where did the fifteen gods go then?

Jiao Xiu put away the white tile, which cut off the connection with Yan Xiu. He turned his head and looked at Ming Wang guarding the hall and said in a gloomy voice, “Go to Elder Council and check whether the soul tiles of the elders that went out are broken or not.”

“Yes, patriarch.”

Ming Wang moved and disappeared from his location. Before a long time passed, his figure reappeared by Jiao Xiu’s side, and he said with a strange expression, “The soul tiles of the dispatched elders are completely intact.”

…

Chen Xiu had reached the resource land unscathed, but the soul slips of the fifteen gods weren’t broken. After pondering about it, Jiao Xiu realized that there was only one possibility…..

He and the other three clan patriarchs turned their heads toward the city lord’s mansion. The only person who could easily stop the fifteen gods and even make them disappear was god father.

Apart from him, there was no other person who could do that.

But if god father had taken action, why wasn’t there any reaction from the city lord, or did he not even notice? When god father had entered seclusion, Ashbi had witnessed it personally. If that was true, and it was, why would he secretly attack the fifteen gods dispatched by the four clans to kill Chen Xiu? And instead of turning them to ashes, he just captured them?

Was it possible that god father had used Ashbi’s mouth to let the four patriarchs know about his seclusion until death or success? Was he actually secretly monitoring their movements all this while?

Jiao Xiu’s complexion instantly turned pale, and his whole body went numb as if it had been electrocuted. If god father knew, he would definitely settle the bill with the four clans at an opportune moment. Previously, the four ancestors had rebelled, so the new crime called for the clan’s extermination.

“God father hasn’t come over directly to interrogate us, which means we still have an opportunity. The matter of us four dispatching fifteen gods has never happened, understand? If god father asks in the future, act as if we don’t know anything,”Doro clan’s patriarch said with a gloomy expression.

The other clan patriarchs nodded, even the one-track minded Rahu Clan’s patriarch.

“So what should we do with Chen Xiu? Do we still continue trying to kill him?”

When he said such words, the matriarch of Deva Clan sitting beside him revealed a hint of contempt and said with a sneer, “God father took action and you still want to kill him? Don’t tell me you aren’t afraid of getting your clan exterminated?”

Once the Rahu Clan’s patriarch heard her words, his robust body shuddered, and he did not say anything else.

Silence filled the room. Suspicion continued filling the heart of the four patriarchs as they left Morrow Clan’s residence and returned to their own clans. Jiao Xiu remained in his seat while looking outside the main hall and thinking about what had happened.

After half a day, he felt that he couldn’t just sit and wait for death, so he got up to prepare for a trip to the city lord’s mansion to ask Ashbi about what exactly was going on. If god father had really faked entering seclusion, then in the future, Morrow Clan could not take any action against Chen Xiu or the Ground Clan.

In the camp at the foot of the mountain, Yan Xiu saw that there were no ripples on the surface of the white jade tile, and his expression turned somewhat strange.

Previously, the patriarch had told him through the jade tile that the four clans had dispatched fifteen gods to kill Chen Xiu. After he heard it, Yan Xiu didn’t think that Chen Xiu would arrive at the resource land in the ore mountain, so he had prepared a banquet and some resources for the fifteen gods from the four clans.

However, Chen Xiu had come to the ore mountain, while there was not even a trace of the fifteen gods.

Yan Xiu, who was communicating with Jiao Xiu for all the important things, had no idea about what to do at that moment. Chen Xiu’s aim for arriving at the ore mountain was to take over this resource land. Then, as the supervisor dispatched by Morrow Clan, Yan Xiu couldn’t decide whether to hand over the resource land to Chen Xiu or not.

If he didn’t hand it over, he would be in trouble after returning to Asura City. After all, Chen Xiu was god father’s son and the sixth ancestor of Asura City. But if Yan Xiu did hand over the territory and the patriarch didn’t agree with it, he wouldn’t have any share when power of belief was distributed.

It was a really difficult problem.

Yan Xiu pondered it for half a day, then waved his large hand and said, “Forget it, doesn’t matter. Since I cannot understand the intentions of the two sides, I will drag it off for now. In any case, Chen Xiu doesn’t seem anxious to take over this ore mountain.”
