Chapter 667: Finished
Sage was pleasantly surprised. The Great Elder rose to her feet and then swept her gaze over the other Elders and they all realized what she was signaling. Though by the amount of time it took for them to comply, Sage figured there was some secret messaging going on before they came to an agreement. Once the Elders were all standing, minus those of the Jinxi Faction who had already left, the Great Elder finally made an announcement.
The Jinxi have lost the challenge. Xie shall now hold the lead position among the council of Elders. I promise I shall right the wrongs done to our clansmen that have been overlooked in the past.
Given the chaos and upheaval caused by a challenge for leadership, this was not the sort of announcement that had to be unanimously agreed to. Nor was it the time for the winner to show their humble and upright nature. With a change in regime came sudden and drastic changes, so the winner would gain unconditional authority for some time until the Clan was stabilized. This was a rule of the clan and something they were all very aware of.
In the past, the factions of the Chong Clan had never imagined that the Jinxi Patriarch would be overthrown in such a way. The Elders were all preparing for such a thing to be hundreds of years into the future. They foresaw a change in leadership coming, due to the fading age of the patriarch, but they were completely taken off guard at this time. They each had many long term plans in place to form alliances with each other as they wondered whether the Jinxi Patriarch or the Great Elder of the Xie would fall first and just how they would deal with either case. Most of them had already planned out how they were going to make use of this situation. With the Xie losing their right of challenge for a decade as well as losing most of their resources, they would be greatly weakened. It would make them a perfect target to pick on, or to offer a helping hand.
Yet they now found that all their plans and plotting lead to naught. Those who had already sided with the Xie Clan were suddenly ecstatic!
The initial promise that the Great Elder made to the clan was somewhat vague, but Sage felt it was aimed not only towards himself, but also to some of the others in the Clan that suddenly had aggrieved looks on their faces that immediately shifted to looks of hope. Sage had the feeling that he wasnt the only person that was randomly bullied or overlooked. It really is rare to find caring and kindness from these big Sects and Clans. The original appearance of this chapter can be found at Ñøv€lß1n.
Xiezi escorted him back to the house he was staying at for the last few days. It had been granted by the Xie for him to train and prepare in peace so he was quite familiar with the route, but Xiezi was likely there to help him feel at ease. He stayed on guard the rest of the night and the next day as well, but he was pleasantly surprised to find that the Xie did not bother with him at all. They spent all their time dealing with the transfer of power from the Jinxi and also engaging in many secret talks with the Elders of the other factions.
Sage had no idea how many extremely valuable resources and lucrative contracts and agreements were formed in those few days. The balance of power had been upset and the new leaders had to appease the other factions to stabilize their position and prevent further infighting.
You can relax. We wont be doing anything against you like the Jinxi would. We scorpions do not use our venom unless it is necessary. In fact, we consider you our second closest ally after the Wa. Not only did we have an agreement in the past, but we also admire your unusual abilities. I owe you a debt, not a knife in the back.
The Great Elder of Xie had come to speak to him a week after the challenge. She seemed exhausted, but extremely excited nevertheless. After taking a moment to let her words sink in, she smiled brightly, In fact, Ive already planned a great venture to recover morale and establish my authority. Im quite sure youll approve. It is time for the Fu Clan to pay for all the times theyve slighted us in the past.
Sage suddenly laughed and nodded to the Great Elder, glad that this time it hadnt blown up in his face again. At least until he heard her next words.
It will take some time to gather supplies and plan a proper assault. Especially since we cant mention this to anyone until it's time to act. We dont wish to tip off the Fu Clan too early. Well march upon them within the next decade, I promise you.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
