Chapter 2377 - 2375: Xuanyuan Qing’s Plan

From Yaan Zihao’s body erupted a terrifying Life and Death Realm pressure, suppressing Cold Edge.He was the dignified Young Master of the Yaan Clan, how could he fear some crawling insect like this? He wanted this guy to taste just how powerful Yaan Zihao was!

The pressure Yaan Zihao released was extremely frightening, but Cold Edge had a terrifying, condensed Sword Intent surging from his body to resist it.

"Yaan Zihao, what are you doing?"

Su Siyao’s face sank as she looked at Yaan Zihao and directly shouted, a Second Level of Life-and-Death Realm pressure erupting from her and crushing toward him.

Thump, thump, thump!!!

Su Siyao’s Second Level of Life-and-Death Realm pressure blasted out.

Yaan Zihao’s body was shaken so hard he staggered back again and again, a trace of astonishment flashing in his eyes as he looked at Su Siyao.

"Siyao, you actually broke through to the Second Level of Life-and-Death Realm!"

Shock flashed in Yaan Zihao’s eyes as he looked at Su Siyao.

"Get lost. You’re not allowed to come here again!"

Su Siyao stared at Yaan Zihao and shouted in a deep voice.

"Hmph, trash who only knows how to rely on a woman, just you wait for me!"

Yaan Zihao swept a cold glance over Cold Edge, then turned and left.

"Are you alright?"

Su Siyao withdrew her aura, her gaze landing on Cold Edge, speaking with a look of concern.

"I’m fine. You should go. What he said is very true, we’re not suited for each other. Don’t come looking for me anymore."

Cold Edge said in a low voice.

"Do you really have to be so heartless? This is the first time I, Su Siyao, have liked a man, and I actually get rejected. Don’t listen to his nonsense."

"I believe you’ll become a true Strong One in the future. When the Supreme Alliance values you, my Clan will agree to us being together!"

Su Siyao still looked at Su Siyao somewhat unwillingly.

"People who aren’t walking the same path, why force them together? I will leave the Nine Heavens sooner or later."

Cold Edge spoke coldly, then turned and went back into his room.

Only Su Siyao was left standing there alone, her eyes full of resentful sorrow.

"I won’t give up!"

Su Siyao stared at the room Cold Edge was in and shouted, then turned and left.

"Young Master, are you alright?"

Cold Edge muttered to himself at this moment.

One of the Eight Great Ancient Clans, the Xiao Clan.

At this moment a major event had shaken the entire Xiao Clan: the Xiao Clan’s two great geniuses, Xiao Yun and Xiao Kuang, had joined the Ancient Realm Dragon List battle and actually hadn’t even made it onto the Dragon List.

For the Xiao Clan, this was absolutely something unbelievable. After all, the Xiao Clan was an extremely powerful great Clan among the Eight Great Ancient Clans of the Ancient Realm.

Xiao Yun and Xiao Kuang were also geniuses second only to the Xiao Clan’s Young Master. How could they not even be ranked on the Dragon List?

In the Xiao Clan’s great hall, the Xiao Clan’s Clan Leader, Xiao Potian, stood there. In front of him stood Xiao Yun and Xiao Kuang, as well as their respective fathers.

"Clan Leader, we’re sorry, we’ve brought shame to the Xiao Clan!"

Xiao Kuang looked at Xiao Potian and lowered his head as he spoke.

"I already know. There were many geniuses on the Dragon List this time. People from the other Ancient Clans went as well, and there were even people from the Tianji Xuan Clan. It’s not really a big problem that you didn’t make it onto the Dragon List."

"But I am very curious about this Xiao Yifeng. Even Qi Tiandao of the Tianji Xuan Clan had his fleshly body destroyed by him."

"And it’s said he’s only at the Third Level of the Divine Soul Realm. I’ve never seen this kind of cross-realm fighting ability before. Just what is this kid’s background?"

Xiao Potian spoke.

"His surname is Xiao as well. Could he be related to our Xiao Clan?"

Xiao Kuang’s father, Xiao Podi, spoke up.

"He shouldn’t be. My Xiao Clan has no clansmen outside. It’s probably just a coincidence. But this genius is indeed impressive. Go investigate his identity, find out where he’s actually from!"

Xiao Potian said, then went on, "Now that the Outer Fiends have begun to revive, it looks like we need to get ready as well. A great war probably won’t be long in coming."

Xiao Kuang and the others all left. Xiao Kuang’s eyes flickered as he looked at his father Xiao Podi and said,

"Father, I don’t know why, but when I look at that Xiao Yifeng, I always feel a kind of closeness to him, and he also gives me a sense of déjà vu!"

"Oh? How could that be?"

Xiao Podi looked at his son in surprise.

"Right, I remember now. I feel he’s a bit similar to the portrait of our Ancestor!"

Xiao Kuang suddenly said.

"Uh? What do you mean? Somewhat similar to the Ancestor’s portrait?"

Xiao Podi’s expression froze, a look of astonishment flashing in his eyes as he stared at Xiao Kuang.

"They really are somewhat similar. I’d felt that sense of déjà vu before, and when I faced him there was this inexplicable feeling of closeness. Could he really be related to our Xiao Clan?"

Xiao Kuang said.

"This kind of thing can’t be spoken of carelessly. Don’t mention it again. As for him, I’ll have people investigate his identity thoroughly!"

Xiao Podi said in a deep voice.

Meanwhile, in the Xuanyuan Clan, one of the Eight Ancient Clans, the news that Xuanyuan Hong had been injured and failed to make the Dragon List had also spread.

This left many people extremely shocked as well. Xuanyuan Hong wielded the Xuanyuan Divine Sword and had defeated the Xuanyuan Family heir, Xuanyuan Chen.

He was hailed as the strongest genius of the Xuanyuan Clan since the end of the Ancient Era, yet he actually hadn’t become first on the Dragon List.

As soon as Xuanyuan Hong returned to the Xuanyuan Household, he directly went into seclusion!

In a room of the Xuanyuan Clan, the Clan Chief of Xuanyuan Clan, Xuanyuan Qing, sat together with his son Xuanyuan Chen.

"Hmph, that guy boasted so much about how badass he was, but in the end he still didn’t become number one on the Dragon List and even got beaten so miserably!"

Xuanyuan Chen snorted coldly, a trace of gloating in his eyes at Xuanyuan Hong’s failure.

It had, in fact, restored quite a bit of confidence to him, the Xuanyuan Clan’s Young Master.

"Even though he lost, his strength is still beyond doubt."

Xuanyuan Qing said.

"If I could obtain the Xuanyuan Divine Sword, I could surpass him too!"

Xuanyuan Chen clenched his fists, cold light flickering in his eyes.

"Right now, there’s an opportunity."

Xuanyuan Qing said.

"What opportunity?"

A trace of curiosity flashed in Xuanyuan Chen’s eyes.

"Two days ago, the Ancestor entered closed death seclusion to冲击 Half-step Reincarnation. He probably won’t appear for a long time and won’t know what happens inside the Xuanyuan Clan!"

Xuanyuan Qing said.

"Father, you mean...?"

Xuanyuan Chen’s eyes narrowed as he looked at Xuanyuan Qing.

"This is the best chance to take him down and seize back the Xuanyuan Divine Sword. With no Ancestor around, killing him will be as easy as flipping a hand. Then you can re-establish a bond with the Xuanyuan Divine Sword."

Xuanyuan Qing said.

"But what about the Ancestor..."

Xuanyuan Chen hesitated.

"Once he’s dead and you’ve bonded with the Xuanyuan Divine Sword, the deed is done. Even if the Ancestor is unhappy, it’ll be useless. It’s not like he’d kill you."

Cold gleam flickered in Xuanyuan Qing’s eyes as he spoke.

"This is a good plan. Father, when do we act?"

Xuanyuan Chen immediately felt an impatient eagerness. He couldn’t wait for Xuanyuan Hong to die so he could regain control of the Xuanyuan Divine Sword.
