Chapter 1421: The Defeat of the Qing Lineage

On the towering mountain, when the three people challenged the elders of the Qing lineage, there was an uproar in the area. Everyone could tell that the Xuan lineage and the Mo lineage had joined forces to deal with the Qing lineage.

Many of the clan members from the Budur Ancient Clan occupied one of the mountains. They were the younger generation of the Budur Ancient Clan. The ones standing at the forefront were Xuan Tong and Mo Xin.

At this moment, they were looking derisively at the Qing lineage. After they defeated the Qing lineage, the Qing lineage would lose their status, and the Mo lineage and the Xuan lineage would hold the greatest power in the Budur Ancient Clan.

“You can only blame Qing Yanjing for your situation.” Xuan Luo sneered as he looked coldly at the elders of the Qing lineage. If Qing Yanjing was around, the two lineages would not have the audacity to put the Qing lineage down, as she was too powerful to be trifled with. Although she had been imprisoned, given her strength as a Divine Ancestral Master, she would be able to make the Qing lineage flourish once she was released. Many of the other lineages would also join her.

To prevent this from happening, the Mo lineage and the Xuan lineage had to utterly destroy the Qing lineage before Qing Yanjing was released from prison. After this had been done, even if she was free, she would not be able to contend with the Mo lineage and the Xuan lineage based on her strength alone.

“Ha. After we have taken control of the clan, we will send our law enforcers to capture the perpetrator. We will make him kneel before us like an ant and get him to hand over the Eight Budur,” Xuan Luo said as a petrifying look flashed across his handsome face.

At the Ancient Holy Gulf, Xuan Luo had been adamant about getting hold of the Eight Budur, but Mu Chen had snatched it away from him. This had made Xuan Luo fume with anger. He had always considered Mu Chen as a lowly perpetrator and himself as the Young Master of the Budur Ancient Clan. There was a great disparity in their status. When he had lost to Mu Chen in their fight previously, he found it so unbearable that he would rather have been killed.

As the clan members of the Xuan lineage and Mo lineage were filled with excitement, the members of the Qing lineage looked pale. Apparently, the situation was against them. The atmosphere in the Qing lineage became solemn, and everyone, regardless of age, looked sad.

Qing Ling, who was standing at the forefront among the younger generation, turned pale when she saw what had happened. She could only sigh within herself.

Suddenly, Qing Ling heard someone shouting behind her. “Why is Sister Qing Shuang standing there?”

Qing Ling was shocked, and when she looked at an inconspicuous mountain in the distance, she saw Qing Shuang and a young slender figure standing beside her. When Qing Ling saw the young figure, her expression changed, and she nearly screamed.

Apparently, she recognized Mu Chen.

“Why has he come to our Budur Ancient Clan? He is so presumptuous.” Qing Ling looked anxious. She knew the Budur Ancient Clan’s attitude toward Mu Chen, and if they discovered him, they would definitely capture him.

Some of the young men from the Qing lineage asked when they saw Mu Chen, “Oh? Who is the guy standing beside Sister Qing Shuang?”

Qing Shuang held a high position among the younger generation in the clan. Although she looked cold, many of the young men in the clan liked her. Thus, she was the center of attention wherever she went. When the young men of the Qing lineage saw that Qing Shuang was standing close to a stranger and even kept him company, they were filled with jealousy.

Someone said in a jealous tone, “This guy looks ordinary. Why has Sister Qing Shuang given him such special treatment?” A few others agreed with him, and they looked at Mu Chen with animosity.

“You are a bunch of silly people. He is very powerful, and none of you are comparable to him.” Qing Ling snorted and scolded them when she heard what they had said. “You think that you are geniuses, but compared to him, you are just a bunch of fools.” Qing Ling was snobbish in nature, and she had used a sharp tone when she made the statement. When the geniuses of the Qing lineage heard what she had said, they were fuming with anger.

“Ha. Qing Ling, do you know who he is? Tell us about him, and we shall see how capable he is to make us look like fools,” someone said angrily.

When Qing Ling heard it, she simply curled up her lips and ignored them. Even Xuan Luo and Mo Xin were no match for Mu Chen, let alone these young men. Although she did not know why Mu Chen was there, she knew that she would be creating problems for him if she disclosed his identity. Thus, she kept mum about it.

When the rest of them saw that she had kept quiet, they thought that she had lied about knowing Mu Chen, and they started to talk among themselves.

…

When Budur Xuan lowered his head and saw what had taken place on the white jade stages, he furrowed his brows. Although he knew what the Xuan lineage and the Mo lineage were up to, he did not say anything. After all, they had not gone against the rules. Thus, he could not say anything, even though he was the First Elder.

The various top forces surrounding the mountains looked on with excitement. They whispered among themselves, saying, “The Qing lineage in the Budur Ancient Clan used to be impressive. I never expected them to have declined so badly.”

“That’s right. Back then, the Qing lineage used to stand out from the rest of the lineages. Even the position of the last clan leader was taken over by the head of the Qing lineage. However, they have become so pathetic.”

“Looks like the Qing lineage will lose its status and become one of the lineages in the Budur Ancient Clan after today. It will be impossible for them to gain back their past glory.”

“…”

The top forces sighed and were filled with compassion when they saw how the Qing lineage had weakened.

Boom!

Suddenly, vast spiritual energy burst out from the three white jade stages and raged like a volcano. Six figures turned into dazzling spiritual bodies at the same time and exuded horrifying power. Fierce fights immediately burst out.

The Qing Lineage Head, Qing Tian, took the lead and struck. Apparently, he was enraged by the Xuan lineage and the Mo lineage for attacking them. He struck mercilessly and caused even an ordinary Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereign to shiver.

When Mo Gu saw it, his expression changed, and he sneered. He had no intention of fighting Qing Tian. He turned into several afterimages and retreated. He knew that he was no match for Qing Tian, as he was only a Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereign. However, he did not mind it, as he was present only to embarrass the Qing lineage. The other two stages were the deciding factor for the outcome of the fights.

“Elder Qing Tian is indeed impressive. However, it is a pity that the situation at the other two stages does not look good.” Mo Gu sneered as he was trying to keep away from the attacks thrown out by Qing Tian.

Qing Tian’s heart sank as he looked at the other two stages from the corner of his eye. The situation was as he had thought. Qing Xuan and the other elder were in bad shape, as they were being attacked by the opponents from the Xuan lineage and the Mo lineage. If this situation continued, the Qing lineage would soon be defeated.

“I am too ashamed to face our ancestors. The Qing lineage has come to such dire straits in my hands,” Qing Tian said and looked sad.

Traces of blood flowed out between Qing Shuang’s teeth as she bit her lips, but she could not care less and stared at the earth-shattering fights that were going on at the three white jade stages.

“Mu Chen, will Aunt Xuan and the elder win?” Qing Shuang asked, trembling, as she was still hoping for a positive outcome.

Mu Chen immediately shook his head and said, “The Xuan lineage and the Mo lineage came prepared. The strength of the people from their lineages is greater than that of the two elders of your Qing lineage. There will be two defeats and one winner in this situation.”

Qing Shuang looked ghastly pale and blood dripped from her palms as she clenched her fists. She could see that the Qing lineage had a bleak future. Mu Chen looked at her and did not say a word. He continued to look calmly at the fierce fights that were going on at the three white jade stages.

Boom! Boom!

Vast spiritual energy raged out like a stormy sea and shook the towering mountain. The oppression exuded from the Heavenly Sovereigns expanded continually from the towering mountain and caused the people on the surrounding mountains to feel the pressure.

“It is about to end,” Mu Chen said suddenly as he stared at the stages.

Dong!

The moment Mu Chen finished the statement, Qing Tian threw out a blow and hit Mo Gu. The blow was so powerful that Mo Gu spat out a mouthful of blood and flew off. When Mo Gu flew off of the stage, he laughed and said, “Elder Qing Tian is indeed powerful. I admit defeat.”

When Qing Tian heard that Mo Gu had admitted defeat, he was not happy at all. He looked at the other two stages where the winners had emerged at the same time. The two elders, Qing Xuan and Qing Yun, had been thrown off of the stages by one step. They stood outside the stages and froze, looking dejected.

The whole area suddenly became silent. Everyone could tell that the Qing lineage had lost.

“Hahaha, thank you Elder Qing Xuan and Elder Qing Yun for sparring with us,” Xuan Lin and Xuan Jin said and laughed loudly as they cupped their fists.

Their laughter resounded in the mountains, and there was dead silence among the clan members of the Qing lineage. Everyone looked pale, and tears flowed out from the eyes of the elderly people among them.

From now on, the status of the Qing lineage would be taken away from them, and they would be as one of the lineages in the Budur Ancient Clan.

“This is the end of the Qing lineage…”
