“Clan Leader Tang! We…” Reize, trailing behind, seemed to have a thousand words to say. No one understood the characters of the various clans in Chengzhou better than him. These were clans that exhibited a wolf-like behavior: when you showed power, they acted weak; when you acted weak, they pounced.

As someone who deeply understood the power of the Tang Clan, Reize naturally knew the backbone of the Tang Clan. However, Tang Zhi’s performance today would only make the other clan leaders perceive him as weak. They wouldn’t view this as magnanimity. After all, if the knife didn’t cut the neck, who would know how sharp it is?

Tang Zhi dismissed Reize’s words with a wave of his hand, turning to the remaining clan leaders of the New City and saying, “Gentlemen, go back today. Tomorrow will bring clarity. I believe our Tang Clan’s act of traveling thousands of miles to save lives in Chengzhou carries sweight in everyone’s heart. They won’t flip sides rashly.”

His visage remained calm, his tone mild, yet this outlook seemed far too naive. Even the clans that originally had no intention of betrayal, after seeing the performed weakness of the Tang Clan, would be tempted, especially when the cost of betrayal is so low.

Perhaps not only the nine clans of New City will leave tonight; perhaps tomorrow morning, only nine clans will be left in the council hall.

“Alas!” Reize sighed deeply, his face full of sorrow, and bowed his hand towards Tang Zhi, “I will take my leave now!”

After the last group of New City clan leaders had left the convention hall, only Tang Zhi, seated at the top, and the old man besides him were left.

In the chamber occupied by only the two of them, the old man said resentfully, “Even after a rigorous selection process, these Chengzhou families are still so pathetic. It’s truly disheartening!”

“Elder Tang Zu, you are being too harsh.” Tang Zhi laughed, “In my view, out of nearly thirty tribes, only one is hugely ambitious. This is a remarkable achievement. The assessment by the disciples of the Tang Clan is excellent. Especially the selection work done by Tang Yao!”

“The final judgment is still not out.” Tang Zu’s face looked solemn, “I just hope that they can conceal themselves well in New City. The Tang Clan has already lost too many good disciples. Each of the remaining ones is a pillar of talent and we can’t afford to lose them.”

“Indeed…” Thinking of the many disciples who drowned in Chengzhou, Tang Zhi’s heart ached, and he replied in a low voice.

As the conversation about the disciple’s assessment ended, Tang Zu recalled the arrogant face of He Xiong during the council meeting, and asked coldly, “How does the Clan Leader think we should deal with the He Clan?”

“I have left this matter to the head of the Left Hall.” Tang Zhi smiled gently, “I’m sure the Dark Thunder Hall can handle this beautifully.”

“Dark Thunder Hall?” Remembering Tang Zuo’s methods, Tang Zu nodded in satisfaction, “That’s correct.”

On the first of August, under the high hanging bright moon,

Compared to the regular clans, the clans of the New City that had experienced the Chengzhou flood were highly alert to disasters. When He Xiong, who cback from the council hall, informed his clan that a flood from Xiling was coming, it took only half a day for the 30,000 members of the He Clan to mobilize efficiently.

The He Clan, located in the northern part of New City, only took half a day to find a beast carriage, pack their belongings, and prepare for the disaster. Their readiness was genuinely touching.

In the center of the He Clan territory, Clan Leader He Xiong, Great Elder He Xuan, and Second Elder He Yuan, the three leaders of the He Clan were planning their next move.

Sitting in the middle of the He Clan’s main hall, He Xiong said to the two people below, “Not only the nine clans that followed the He Clan this morning, but after the council adjourned, seven more clan leaders cto see me, saying they wanted to conspire together! In this way, we will have twenty-one people from the Fierce Realm to assault Qingyang City!”

He Xiong was very proud. A family with three Fierce Realm warriors would be a formidable power in any city. Especially since the three of them had the sorigin and practiced the sCombined Attack Technique. With eighteen Fierce Realm warriors, they could sweep across the battlefield, invincible.

But listening to He Xiong, Second Elder He Yuan felt uncomfortable. He remembered the Chengzhou flood two years ago when the He Clan was attacked secretly, and he and He Xuan were seriously injured. If not for the timely rescue by the Tang Clan’s treasure ship, the He Clan might have been exterminated. Now, just as they were recovering, they were about to betray, which made him guilty.

“Clan Leader, the Tang Clan has been kind to us, the He Clan. Even if it is to preserve the clan’s power, we shouldn’t deceive the large clans in New City into leaving with us, thus repaying kindness with enmity. In the future, how will the world view our He Clan!?” If not for the elixirs and treasures from the Tang Clan, he wouldn’t have recovered. He couldn’t agree to have the clan betray now when he had just recovered from a serious injury.

“Second Elder!” He Xiong spoke coldly, “Now that the Mi Clan has tied up the Tang Clan, our clan has a chance to leave New City. If we wait for the Tang Clan to be free, the He Clan will just be a piece of meat in the mouth of the Tang Clan. I, as the Clan Leader, absolutely cannot allow the He Clan to be swallowed. Where is there any kindness between the clans? If it wasn’t for our He Clan’s brave warriors, how would the Tang Clan dare to offend the Su family and bring us back to Xiling? This is merely a tactic to make the He Clan their vassal!”

He Xuan nodded and said, “Correct, the Tang Clan owes a debt of gratitude to the He Clan, but its intentions are hard for the He Clan to bear. If the Second Elder feels guilty, after we have seized Qingyang and obtained independence, if the Tang Clan is in trouble, the Second Elder can repay the Tang Clan.”

Just as He Xiong was about to agree with the Great Elder’s statement, his face suddenly changed. With the deepest cultivation, he was the first to perceive the enormous spiritual power fluctuation above their residence.

Almost at the stime, He Xuan and He Yuan also felt it. Three beams of red light enveloped the three of them, flying into the sky. Barely breaking the rooftop and before the broken tiles could touch the ground, they saw three immense golden palms covering the sky and the sun, descending over the He Clan’s land.

The massive golden energy lit up the night like daylight. The ultimate Combined Attack Technique of the Tang Clan, ‘Tathagata,’ descended heavily on the land of the He Clan in New City.

The three of them didn’t have tto think and immediately mobilized all their spiritual power. Like a blood cloud, the spiritual power surged around the three of them with extrheat. The three identical streams of spiritual power converged and transformed into a Brahma Dragon, carrying endless rage, it crashed into the golden palm that was falling on the He Clan’s land.

At this moment, He Xiong felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar. He originally thought that most of the Tang Clan’s forces were tied up in Jiang Lin. This gave him the courage to lead the He Clan out of New City overnight. He believed that even if the Tang Clan had any back-up plans, the three of them could easily protect the He Clan. But now it seemed that his judgement was wrong.

The fiery Brahma Dragon collided fiercely into the palm of the giant golden palm. The golden and red lights were stuck in mid-air. Unlike the usual Combined Attack Techniques, the three threads of the enormous Brahma Dragon, made entirely of fiery clouds, were still connected to the three Fierce Realm warriors of the He Clan. This allowed them to continuously infuse spiritual power into the Brahma Dragon.

Even with the three of them working together, they could barely resist one ‘Tathagata.’ The other two golden palms were still descending on the He Clan’s land.

The He Clan was worthy of being a tribe from Chengzhou, their combat experience was extremely substantial. Many clan members were prepared to leave the clan land at night. However, if they didn’t know that the clan was under attack when golden palms covered the sky, they would be considered as absurdly naive.

After enduring major disasters, all who were left in the He Clan were elites.

They quickly formed a square, and among the thirty thousand He Clan members, five hundred had experienced their mortal transformation. Although most of them had not yet learned the Combined Attack Technique, they all attacked the giant palm descending from the sky. Another group of clan members quickly assembled together to launch their combined attack against the giant palm covering the sky. Their reaction was extremely quick.

Dozens of Fire Dragons and hundreds of streams of red fierce flames ruthlessly collided with the incoming golden palm. This was the He Clan’s response to the intruders.
