Hearing Xu Zii’s words, the person from the Blood Clan at the doorway seed sowhat stunned.
He looked at Xu Zii and let out a low roar, growling under his breath.
The fresh blood on his teeth mixed with saliva, looking extrely disgusting.
He staggered toward Xu Zii, mouth wide open as if he wanted to swallow Xu Zii whole.
Xu Zii could tell that the other party’s cultivation wasn’t very high; to him, this being truly was like an ant.
He simply flicked his right hand, and a stream of Spiritual Energy shot out from it.
With a "boom," the Spiritual Energy exploded with mighty force, directly piercing the heart of the Blood Clan mber.
The figure stopped, half-kneeling on the spot, right hand clutching his chest.
Blood flowed from his chest as if it had a life of its own.
The most fatal weakness of the Blood Clan was the heart because they needed to convert a large amount of blood, making their hearts much stronger than other beings.
But it was this strength that also made it their fatal weakness; once the heart was damaged, they were essentially crippled.
...
Xu Zii walked down from the bed and slowly approached the Blood Clan mber.
"Can we talk now?" he said, looking at the other party.
As his words fell, the door was pushed open, and Ye Feiyang arrived with a group of people from Clear Water Stronghold.
"Are you alright?" Ye Feiyang asked anxiously.
Xu Zii shook his head slightly and said, "Have you found any other mbers of the Blood Clan?"
"Not yet, but we can start by interrogating him," replied Ye Feiyang.
They brought the Blood Clan man out of the dark room and into the outside world. Although Clear Water Stronghold was not very spacious, there was still so open space available.
The moonlight outside was as clear as frost, but when Ye Feiyang saw the Blood Clan man’s face clearly, he suddenly froze.
"Shi Ya, is that you?" Ye Feiyang asked in bewildernt.
The Blood Clan man sized up Ye Feiyang, looking down in deep thought as if pondering sothing.
Eventually, he looked at Ye Feiyang and hesitantly asked, "Are you... Brother Feiyang?"
"How co you’re here?" Ye Feiyang asked, nodding his head.
"Brother Feiyang, where have you been all these years? The clan has been looking for you for a long ti.
Do you have any idea what happened in the clan while you were gone?" Shi Ya said urgently.
"It’s a long story," Ye Feiyang replied. "What happened to the clan?
And why are you out here hunting?"
Ye Feiyang was sowhat puzzled in his heart; after all, Shi Ya had so status within the Immortal Bloodline.
Normally, his food was provided by the clan, and he wouldn’t need to risk hunting on his own.
Shi Ya looked around at the assembled crowd, seemingly hesitant.
"It’s alright, they’re all our people," Ye Feiyang said, turning to shake his head at the Stronghold’s people.
The people of Clear Water Stronghold exchanged glances, and eventually scattered slowly, standing back.
"Tell , what exactly happened?" Ye Feiyang asked.
"Our Immortal Bloodline has been wiped out," Shi Ya said sorrowfully after a long silence.
"How could that be," Ye Feiyang’s expression changed drastically as he asked, "Did you get involved in the conflict between the Monster Bloodline and the Demon Bloodline?"
"How could that be possible; you know that our Immortal Bloodline has always remained neutral," Shi Ya explained, shaking his head.
"You know as well as I do that the conflict between those two bloodlines is constant, and our Immortal Bloodline has always been the biggest beneficiary.
```
Therefore, although our Immortal Bloodline does not engage in conflict, we are nevertheless a thorn in the side for both of the other lineages."
"Just because of this, they exterminated our Immortal Bloodline?" Ye Feiyang asked in surprise.
"Why didn’t the Clan Elder stop them?"
Shi Ya sighed, then briefly recounted the events.
At the ti, the Netherworld Blood Sea was in upheaval, and the Clan Elder was fully engaged in suppressing its turmoil.
While the three bloodlines were each guarding their own territory, and all seed well, no one expected the Demon Bloodline and Monster Bloodline to secretly open a breach.
They let the source of the rebellion into the heart of the Blood Clan.
In the end, the Divine Bloodline was ambushed from within, and though they survived the battle, they ca close to total annihilation.
The Divine Bloodline’s strength was greatly diminished in that fight, and later when the clan elders learned of this, they did no more than chide the other two bloodlines.
After all, the Clan Elder would not tear face with the other two lineages over a bloodline that had already been decimated.
The matter ended without further consequences, and Ye Feiyang could guess the current status of the Immortal Bloodline within the clan.
Probably, all the resources had been seized by the other two bloodlines, and soone of Shi Ya’s status could only fend for himself outside.
"Take to the Blood Clan," Ye Feiyang said with a cold tone.
"Feiyang, don’t be rash, you’re not their match yet," Shi Ya hurriedly tried to persuade him.
Ye Feiyang shook his head slightly and looking at Xu Zii, he said, "Now that the situation within the clan is clear, do you still want to go?"
"Why not go," Xu Zii replied with a smile.
"However, there’s no need to be so ostentatious right now. If you help obtain what I want, I can help you eradicate those enemies of yours, and that’s not impossible either."
"Your words seem a bit arrogant," Shi Ya said, sowhat unconvinced after hearing Xu Zii’s remark.
"Do you look down on our Blood Clan?"
"Do you still feel a sense of belonging to a clan like this?" Xu Zii asked in return.
"Don’t you hate certain people within the clan?"
Upon hearing Xu Zii’s words, Shi Ya fell silent.
In that battle, the Immortal Bloodline nearly faced complete annihilation. Among those deceased clan mbers were many of his relatives and friends; how could he not harbor hatred?
It was just that his own strength didn’t allow for his seed of hatred to grow.
...
"The best way to break all shackles is through destruction. Only after destruction can there be rebirth," Xu Zii said indifferently.
"Think about it."
Shi Ya looked at Ye Feiyang, and ultimately nodded, saying to Xu Zii, "Alright, I agree to your terms."
The three of them discussed a simple strategy, and at that mont, Green Smoke Taoist approached with a group of people.
"I heard that the murderer who targeted Clear Water Stronghold has been found?"
As soon as the Green Smoke Taoist arrived, he got straight to the point with his first question.
"You are mistaken, senior; this is my friend, not the murderer," Ye Feiyang hastily explained.
"He is a mber of the Blood Clan," the Green Smoke Taoist stated calmly.
"As I said, you are mistaken, senior," Xu Zii glanced at Green Smoke Taoist, the power of the Divine Vein Realm surging around him.
Beside him, the Divine Emperor also exuded a formidable aura, which grandly spread out, fixing its gaze on the Green Smoke Taoist.
As for Ye Feiyang, also with the aura of the Divine Vein Realm coalescing, he stood protective front, with Shi Ya behind him.
The atmosphere grew slightly tense, with the auras from the surroundings faintly converging, locking down the space around them.
The Green Smoke Taoist suddenly laughed, his facial expression easing slightly as he said with a smile, "Since it’s a misunderstanding, let’s leave it at that if it’s been cleared up."
