Chapter 36: Old Ancestor of the Wang Clan!

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

According to the past habits, as long as the matriarch approached the meeting hall, she would be discovered by the Old Ancestor. No matter what, the Old Ancestor would still show her some respect because back then, she was the Wang clan’s daughter that the Old Ancestor personally chose to marry into the Han clan.

This was also the reason why no one in the Han clan dared to approach the meeting hall other than her.

However, the matriarch of the Han clan had been quietly standing outside the door for fifteen minutes, but she hadn’t heard a single sound. Instead, she felt a faint scent of blood waft out from the meeting hall. In a moment of desperation, she pushed open the door to the meeting hall.

The door was closed and not locked. When she pushed the door open and saw the scene inside, her legs went soft and she knelt down. Then, she shouted in a voice that even she found unfamiliar, “Quick, something big has happened. Inform everyone from the Han clan to come to the meeting hall. Quick, something has happened to the Old Ancestor. The patriarch is also…”

No matter how many things the matriarch had experienced, she was crying now and her voice had changed.

The Han clan was in chaos, and the old mansion rang the bell a total of twelve times. The servants of the Han clan, who were busy at first, and the maidservants who were preparing dinner, as well as some of the Han clan disciples who had just finished cultivating put down their work and ran towards the meeting hall upon hearing this voice. Some of the core disciples were called over too.

In truth, the true core disciples were all gathered in the meeting hall. This time, even the third-grade martial artists had been called over. This was because it was practically a disaster for the Han clan this time.

At this moment, the highest cultivation of the Han clan was actually the matriarch of the Han clan. However, she only has a sixth-grade cultivation level. All the seventh-grade, eighth-grade, and ninth-grade martial artists of the Han clan had died in the meeting hall with the Old Ancestor.

The hundred years of foundation of the Han clan had been wiped out in a single day. And when the Han clan disciples saw the Han clan’s Old Ancestor, as well as the patriarch and elders, lying neatly in the meeting hall, the eyes of the younger generation of the Han clan disciples turned red. Some of them jumped up and cursed angrily.

“Who, who, who killed the Old Ancestor? We want revenge!”

“I will never forget this blood feud!”

…

There were some hot-tempered Han clan disciples shouting about revenge, but most of them were silent. They were terrified into silence and they felt fear.

The matriarch of the Han clan held the letter of the Zhao clan in her hands and her hands were shaking uncontrollably. When she heard the words of revenge from the Han clan members, her face sank and she cursed.

“All of you, listen up! If anyone wants to take revenge, you’re out of the Han clan, you’re not allowed to call yourself a descendant of the Han clan in the future! All of you are just ignorant fools who don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth! The Zhao clan’s Old Ancestor is also gone…”

The matriarch of the Han clan scolded angrily. Those who were more quick-witted pulled those disciples aside and covered their mouths.

All the Han clan disciples were like frosted eggplants. No one dared to say anything. Terror filled everyone’s hearts.

In such a short period of time, someone had killed the Old Ancestor and the patriarch who was a ninth-grade martial artist as well as a large group of elders in the Han clan’s old mansion. The key was that not a single sound was made. How terrifying was that? Was this person still human? This was the work of an immortal!

This was even more terrifying than the heaven-shaking sword strike from the headquarters of the Wind Thunder Sect many years ago.

Moreover, the Zhao clan’s Old Ancestor is gone, this, this, this…

The matriarch of the Han clan didn’t know what to say. She quickly got someone to inform the Wang clan as soon as possible, telling them to increase their guards and gather all the disciples of the Martial Arts Academy to defend the Wang clan.

The only hope of the seven great clans this time was the Wang Clan.

This was because the matriarch of the Han clan knew that the Wang clan had two Martial Saints. This was the reason why the Wang clan had not collapsed for thousands of years.

After today, the Han clan could be considered to be over. The matriarch of the Han clan started crying from the bottom of her heart. She could not be bothered about what to do with the Han clan from now on.

There were way too many martial artists in the Wang clan. Therefore, Li Yuanqing took the initiative to appear before the two Old Ancestors of the Wang clan.

It was drizzling at that time. Li Yuanqing was wearing a white shirt and walking in the rain. The raindrops did not land on Li Yuanqing at all, but evaporated three meters away from him. Even so, Li Yuanqing, who was walking over from afar, looked like an immortal from heaven with an incomparably handsome disposition.

“Fellow Daoist, why have you come to my Wang Clan from afar?”

The Wang clan actually had two Old Ancestors. Furthermore, they were the two brothers who had lived for two to three hundred years. At this moment, they looked to be in their thirties or forties with extraordinary bearing, just like a teacher.

However, they still greeted Li Yuanqing warily when they saw him.

“Since you have submitted to the Northern Kingdom, then you should have the awareness of being a subject. Have you never thought that there will definitely be endless conflicts, and blood will flow like rivers when the seven great clans deliberately defy the decree? The ones suffering are the commoners. When you dare to defy the decree, then you should have thought of this day!” Li Yuanqing had actually spoken more than two sentences when he looked at the Wang clan’s Old Ancestors before him.

This was also the reason why the Wang clan was probably the strongest among the seven great clans. Their two Old Ancestors are Martial Saints. No wonder they dared to oppose the Northern Kingdom.

However, when these families rebelled, or when they overthrew the Northern Kingdom, the innocent civilians would suffer in the war.

That was why Li Yuanqing was willing to make the trip.

As long as he could kill the ancestors of the seven great clans and destroy their hidden cards, all of them would become obedient. The Northern Kingdom would be able to trade for several decades of peace. Otherwise, it would be a hidden danger.

“The royal family of the Northern Kingdom? Haha, your cultivation is outstanding. The royal family of the Northern Kingdom is weak and only has one Martial Saint. It is not enough to intimidate everyone. It is like a child holding a gold ingot in the middle of a bustling city. Those with the ability will naturally try to snatch the gold ingot unless the child is willing to give it up…

“I see that your cultivation is extraordinary. Why don’t you cooperate with us? In the future, when the Northern Kingdom is destroyed and the new dynasty is established, we can promise you the position of State Preceptor!”

The Wang Clan’s Old Ancestor was taking advantage of the fact that there were two of them and Li Yuanqing was alone. To think that he would try to recruit Li Yuanqing and even try to convince him to join them! Li Yuanqing could not help but laugh out loud. A State Preceptor for a new country. This Wang Clan’s Old Ancestor was really interesting!

“The Wang clan has been hiding for a thousand years. The tree is big and the roots are deep. It’s time to dig out the roots this time. Otherwise, it will block the sunlight of the owner when they grow too fast…”

Li Yuanqing did not want to say anything anymore. He took out the Saint Extermination Stone. He should be glad that he had been cultivating and nourishing the Saint Extermination Stone for so many years. Otherwise, the two Wang Clan’s Old Ancestors would probably cause some trouble!

The Wang brothers looked at each other. Instead of running, they summoned their swords and charged at Li Yuanqing!
