(4 more) Ancestor Sacrifice Day was drawing near, and the Prophetic Son had returned.
All these signs pointed to the fact that for the Sky Strategy Clan, the Emperor Tomb sealed for a thousand years was about to resurface.
Because of this, it seed as though everyone in the Sky Strategy Clan was entering a state of slight frenzy, whether it was the faction of the Great Elder or the lineage of Elder Heiyu; it appeared they were all secretly plotting sothing.
The mont the Prophetic Son appeared, it had already been destined that the conflict between these two factions would intensify.
On the first night at Wangduan Mountain, everything was calm, seemingly peaceful, but Ling Feng knew this was rely the prelude to an impending storm.
Indeed, the next morning, Ling Feng sensed the guards outside the courtyard were uneasily whispering about sothing.
Just as Ling Feng was about to step forward to inquire, Tuoba Cheng hurried over with an urgent look and said, “Master, Elder Heiyu and his n have co demanding to see you!”
“Demanding to see ?”
Ling Feng raised an eyebrow and said indifferently, “This guy, he sure ca quickly!”
He didn’t know that since Elder Heiyu had found out about Ling Feng’s profound dical skills, which could extend the Great Elder’s life, he had beco restless, unwilling to delay any longer.
With Ancestor Sacrifice Day approaching, if the Great Elder really supported Ling Feng in opening the Emperor Tomb, wouldn’t that an handing over Emperor Tiance’s inheritance to an outsider?
Therefore, Elder Heiyu knew he couldn’t wait for the Great Elder to pass away and had to act before Ancestor Sacrifice Day, to kidnap Ling Feng.
In doing so, they could use Ling Feng to open the Emperor Tomb and then, having served their purpose, dispose of him, killing two birds with one stone!
Of course, this was just wishful thinking on Elder Heiyu’s part.
“Take to the Main Hall!”
Ling Feng chuckled with a hint of mockery, saying lightly, “I really do want to et this Elder Heiyu!”
“Master, this might not be a good idea, seeing you, Elder Heiyu will likely stop at nothing to capture you!” Tuoba Cheng said through gritted teeth, “The Great Elder…
he has only just recovered…”
“It doesn’t matter.”
Ling Feng flicked his sleeve, turned to look into the room, and laid eyes on the Despicable Donkey.
He smiled faintly and said, “Aside from the Great Elder, we have another secret weapon!”
…
Heavenly Strategy Main Hall.
At the mont, the Great Elder was receiving Elder Heiyu in the hall, sitting in the honorary seat with a hunched figure, looking frail and breathless.
anwhile, Elder Heiyu stood tall and vigorous, radiating strength and sharpness in his eyes, displaying not an ounce of respect as he stared down at the Great Elder on the seat.
By his side stood a stunningly beautiful girl exuding a cold aura, Tuoba Yan.
Despite her young age, her special Physique granted her formidable strength, and she was deed as Elder Heiyu’s highly trusted right hand.
Outside the Main Hall, dozens of Elder Heiyu’s elite guards were present, showing a nacing front as if they would forcibly take the “Prophetic Son” if the Great Elder did not hand him over.
In Elder Heiyu’s eyes, the Great Elder was already a spent force.
He had not made a move earlier simply to avoid the stigma of rebelling, but now, at this crucial ti, he could not be concerned with such matters.
“Tuoba Ce, I have heard you’ve found the Prophetic Son.
How about letting this Elder et him, too?”
Elder Heiyu stood with his hands behind his back, exuding an oppressive presence, looking down on the aged Great Elder as if he were beneath his notice.
“Nonsense!”
At the Great Elder’s side, a middle-aged man in a dark robe snapped, “Elder Heiyu, you are one of the Ten Great Clan Elders.
How dare you address the Great Elder by na!”
“I am speaking to Tuoba Ce, not you!”
Elder Heiyu’s gaze swept across the room, and a sharp glint exploded from his eyes.
The middle-aged man protecting the Great Elder at his side suddenly felt dizzy, staggering back several steps and almost collapsing to the ground.
The entire room was shocked!
Who would have thought that Elder Heiyu’s strength had reached such a level?
He might not be far off from the Great Elder’s peak state.
“Heiyu, you are too arrogant!”
The Great Elder clutched his chest, coughing violently a few tis, and spoke bitterly, “Rember, I am the Great Elder!
Your actions today are a violation of our ancestors’ teachings.
I urge you to stop imdiately to avoid further folly!”
“Hmph, the inheritance of the Great Emperor belongs to our clan, and yet, we are now supposed to let an outsider inherit it.
It’s utterly ludicrous!”
Elder Heiyu sneered, “Tuoba Ce, if you know what’s good for you, hand over that boy.
You’re already spent, and with your current strength, you truly can’t stand against !”
Elder Heiyu walked directly up to the Great Elder, looking down from above at the old man sitting on the Elder’s throne and said condescendingly, “Those who are no longer useful should step down from their positions, making room for more suitable people.
After all, we are all from the Sky Strategy Clan.
If possible, I would prefer not to see kinsn fight each other, hahaha!”
“Heiyu, how dare you threaten the Great Elder!”
Tuoba Longchuan bellowed, imdiately summoning his Tianhang Bright Wheel.
The golden radiance swirled as light swords shot out, directly targeting Elder Heiyu’s back.
“Humph, overestimating yourself!”
Dark mist emanated from Elder Heiyu, enveloping and devouring the golden light.
No matter how Tuoba Longchuan attacked, it was like mud disappearing into the sea.
In the next mont, a “swoosh” was heard as a pitch-black sword light shot out, aiming straight for Tuoba Longchuan’s face.
If this strike had hit, Tuoba Longchuan’s life would have likely been in grave danger.
“Ding!”
Just at that hair-trigger mont, a green barrier ford in front of Tuoba Longchuan, blocking the dark glow of the black sword.
Sparks flew everywhere, and Tuoba Longchuan, drenched in cold sweat, quickly retreated, narrowly escaping with his life.
“Cheng!”
Tuoba Longchuan barely recovered from the shock when he looked toward the hall entrance.
It turned out that Tuoba Cheng had arrived just in ti, summoning his Tianhang Bright Wheel and casting a barrier that ultimately saved him.
“Hmph!”
Elder Heiyu flicked his sleeves, not pursuing further but rely looked toward the entrance, sneering, “Just a young upstart and you dare to withstand a blow from ?”
Before his words even ended, Tuoba Cheng’s body shook violently, and he vomited blood profusely, almost unable to stand.
If it weren’t for Ling Feng’s support, he would have probably collapsed.
“Cheng!” Tuoba Longchuan rushed forward, clenching his fists tightly, grinding his teeth, “Cheng, how are you?”
“I…
I’m alright!”
Tuoba Cheng forcefully wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, cursing through his teeth, “You old scoundrel Heiyu, that move wasn’t all that great!”
“Sharp-tongued!”
A cold gleam flashed in Elder Heiyu’s eyes as his gaze settled on Ling Feng.
Standing with his hands behind his back, he stated, “It seems you must be the Prophetic Son!”
“Indeed, Elder Heiyu, this person is the Prophetic Son, Ling Feng!”
At that mont, Lee Qingling stepped out from the crowd inside the hall, effortlessly walking to Elder Heiyu’s side and said with a faint smile, “Elder, you’re truly cautious.
To not inform about such a big event…
Are you afraid I might leak the news?”
“Hmph, our relationship is purely cooperative; I have never truly trusted you!”
“How heartbreaking!”
Lee Qingling shrugged his shoulders, yet there wasn’t a trace of sadness or dejection on his face.
