The Ethereal Domains

Chapter 482: Coming in Waves

Coming in Waves . . .

Cha Eun Xiao's smile sent shivers down the spines of the men from the five clans. Beads of sweat formed on Long Tianyun's forehead as he hastily protested, "No, that's impossible. How could such a thing occur? Absolutely not, nothing of the sort!"

A collective realization gripped the members of the five clans. Their thoughts aligned, thinking, "When we return to our clans, we must gather all our members and release all restraints against Ling-Bao Hall."

"No, it's not enough. We should treat every branch of Ling-Bao Hall as if they were our forefathers," they concluded.

"Regardless of Ling-Bao Hall's actions, they are in the right. Even if they commit wrongs, they are still right. We must not incur their displeasure."

"We cannot offend the Monarch of Ling-Bao Hall. If Feng Monarch becomes enraged, all he needs to do is utter the name of a single clan, and assassins from around the world will embark on a killing spree. We could be obliterated within seconds!"

This was not an exaggeration; it was the brutal truth.

Cha Eun Xiao responded with a bland nod and remarked, "Oh, is that so? In that case, I should take my leave. After all the affairs in the capital are resolved, I plan to visit every branch of Ling-Bao Hall worldwide and address any difficulties they may face personally. If there are no significant issues, I'll consider it a leisurely tour. I've been burdened with concerns for quite some time. I wonder if I can truly enjoy my journey visiting my branches..."

His followers were drenched in cold sweat.

"Oh my god. This means... if he visits our branch and discovers that we've been stifling their business, will we even survive? He intends to tour... it might turn out to be a killing spree or poisoning rampage..."

"Please visit any place but ours. Do not come to our branch. I must immediately send a message to my clan to lift all restrictions on Ling-Bao Hall. We must cooperate with Ling-Bao Hall in every conceivable way."

"Admitting their correctness, even when they are wrong, is insufficient. We should offer them money. That would be much more explicit. It will surely satisfy this god of slaughter!"

"Now that we comprehend the situation, we must exercise extreme caution when dealing with Ling-Bao Hall. Any misstep will lead us to damnation."

As these thoughts swirled in their heads, the supreme dan beads in the ashes began to levitate and emit strange clouds. Perplexed, they scanned the surroundings, detecting no further issues.

Then, a clear voice resonated from the heavens, declaring, "Since Feng Monarch has no use for these supreme dan beads, why don't I take them?"

Cha Eun Xiao was taken aback. He had sensed the presence of someone watching him, an elusive observer whose power dwarfed even Bu Jingtian, the self-proclaimed No. 1 Cultivator. This unknown figure possessed an overwhelming cultivation level, surpassing any he had encountered in his previous life. This person was about to reveal themselves.

Cha Eun Xiao turned slowly, his gaze drawn to the transformed yard where the ashes and blood had completely vanished.

Standing nonchalantly in the cleared space was a young man adorned in cyan, a confident smile adorning his countenance. He held in his hand dozens of supreme dan beads, resplendent in their colorful radiance and majestic dan clouds.

This young man, clothed in cyan, fixed his gaze on Cha Eun Xiao, a smile gracing his features.

Then, the tranquil yard was punctuated by the arrival of two more figures.

Two graceful and striking women made their entrance. Their beauty and elegance were nothing short of captivating.

Upon recognizing them, Cha Eun Xiao murmured, "Wan of the Clouds... Xiu of the Heavens."

The men from the five clans, who had been observing this unfolding scene, reeled from shock. Their legs felt like jelly, and their minds swirled in a daze.

Wan of the Clouds and Xiu of the Heavens.

Wan of the Clouds to the left, Xiu of the Heavens to the right. They wielded the power to summon the wind and command the heavens and earth with a wave of their hands.

"Master Bai, House of the Chaotic Storms!" The realization hit them like a thunderbolt.

So, this young man, standing between the two legendary figures, could he be Master Bai, the enigmatic figure who had remained hidden from the world for centuries?

Their collective sighs spoke of the mounting complexity of Cha Eun Xiao's encounters.

First, it was the international assassins who came to end his life, followed by the two formidable sects. After overcoming these adversities, now the most formidable power in the Land of Han-Yang, the House of the Chaotic Storms, was paying him a visit. Three illustrious figures had appeared simultaneously, and it left everyone baffled.

Cha Eun Xiao had effortlessly dealt with each challenge that came his way. He vanquished the assassins with ease and overcame the two great sects without much effort. However, now he faced the House of the Chaotic Storms, a force to be reckoned with.

Curiosity brimming, he approached them, neither arrogant nor humble, and inquired, "May I ask who this is..."

With a mischievous glint in his eye, Ling Wuxie replied, "My name is Ling."

He raised an eyebrow and sported a wicked, nonchalant grin.
