Chapter 768: Clan Extinction

Sage collected the members of the Purple Mist Sect and used the Red Comet to hurry back to the main battlefield. He was supposed to be a sort of reserve and they had already been on the way underground before he left. Once he arrived back at the entrance to the underground caverns he spotted large numbers of Chong Clansmen flowing in and out of the cave so he flew directly inside and signaled the Chong Clan guards with his Clan Token. He flew over the largest crowd and then followed the sounds of battle to reach the front line.

The red leaf took him over to a huge tent and he landed in front of it, hopping off his magical device and storing it away. Then he showed his token to the guards in front of the tent and walked inside. He took a look around at the situation and frowned when he saw two of the Xie Triplets crying in the corner. The two of them were clutching a silver bowl covered in array symbols and caressing it with grief. Sage glanced over to Xie Bian, and the Chong Clan Matriarch shook her head. He sighed as that meant they had already suffered a loss. The third of the triplets was likely already dead.

Walking over towards the Sand Table, he saw a map of the tunnels that the Chong Clan had already explored and cleared. Most notably there were markings that showed all the side tunnels had collapsed as well as some notations of losses which he assumed were from traps.

It doesnt seem to be going well.

They have set up layers of offensive and defensive formations defending the main tunnel. Every side route is filled with traps and rigged to collapse at some point. We cant leave any of them untouched because we cant let them have a way to escape or strike us from the back. They know this and are using it as a way to whittle our numbers down. Because of our Insects, the traps and cave-ins have to be very elaborate but theyve still inflicted damage to our forces.

What about? Sage tilted his head towards the Xie Twins and Xie Bian sighed, They made another stand and that old bastard sacrificed the other three Nascent Souls on his side to deal us a terrible blow.

Across from him he noticed that Wu Yun, the cloud surfing Wu Elder, was missing an arm and one of the Wa Elders was pale and coughing constantly. For them to still be so injured it meant they had taken some terrible wounds. As rich and powerful as they were, if it was simple physical injuries they could have been healed with some Alchemical Pills. It meant something was wrong with them on a deeper level that the pills couldnt restore. nôvel binz was the first platform to present this chapter.

So, only the Fu Patriarch is left?

Sage ignored the Wu Elder and stared at Xie Bian, The Lang Clan will take control of Ten Thousand Wave Province. The Chong Clan will rule Lucky Star Province.

You want us to give up our own province? Are you trying to rebel? Even if you beat Jinxi Jao, that doesnt mean you have a chance against the Chong Clan. You want to challenge everyone in this room?

Xie Bian had her eyes locked with Sages, but with this interruption she frowned and broke the stare to fix her glare upon the Wu elder, Wu Xiang! Are you in charge, or am I? Sit down and close your mouth.

Sage continued to be impressed by Xie Bian. He could see the fury in her eyes, yet shed refrained from using any deeper insults. She was quite marvelous at controlling her anger and carefully choosing her words. Most cultivators were already pretty excellent at controlling their emotions in this regard, but Sage had said things that truly struck at these peoples most sacred of beliefs. He was asking these people to leave their home, and not just their family home, but one passed down through hundreds of generations. It was made even worse because to them he was like a man whod already had his own home foreclosed a few times and yet still acted like he had the capital to buy theirs.

Wu Xiang followed Xie Bians instructions and took a step back. He also surprised Sage in that the fury in his eyes suddenly disappeared. The man didnt cross his arms or move away in a huff. Given the man had a creepy centipede mask over his face he now became impossible to read once again. The mans shoulders werent even bunched up or tightened, he looked perfectly calm and placid while taking a seat and using a mote of Qi to warm a cup of tea as he took a drink from it.

The other provincial powers will never let you control two provinces at the same time. They will likely say nothing and then plot against you in the dark. Its likely theyll even join hands to put a puppet of their choice in charge and then demand an equal share of the benefits. If you arent careful, not only will you not keep Lucky Star, but youll lose Ten Thousand Wave as well. Since it is already destined, you should simply give up on Ten Thousand Wave altogether. Youve already had access to everything valuable in the province for thousands of years now, so Lucky Star Province and its new resources should be far more valuable. Replacing the Fu Clans puppets in the counties and cities will certainly be a huge source of wealth as well. If this is all true, then the only real question is deciding who you give Ten Thousand Wave to when you leave.

So, in exchange for your blood, you will be the new owners of our territory? Suppose you can live up to your end of the bargain, wont you just lose Ten Thousand Wave? One Nascent Soul cannot control an entire province.

Let the Lang Clan worry about that. If we fail, isnt that a perfect excuse for you to take it back again?
