623: 0624 Ji Lingchen!
(Fifth Update) 623: 0624 Ji Lingchen!
(Fifth Update) Before they arrived, their presence was felt.
As the three ancient clans appeared, the sky beca overcast with dark clouds hanging so low, making it hard to breathe.
The crowd quickly cleared a space automatically, at the center.
As the Tang clan mbers moved to either side, strong figures and youths from the three ancient clans erged, coming into view of everyone.
The Ji Clan, the Mu Clan, and the Shi Clan!
Each clan was led by an elder, followed by five vibrant young people, all under the age of thirty, none of whom seed ordinary.
Clan Leader Tang Heshan and five elders saw the black-robed old n of the three great ancient clans and imdiately tensed up; other clans, when they ca to the secret land, mobilized everyone, wishing they could bring out all their top experts, but for the three mightiest ancient clans, each only needed two black-robed old n by their side.
This was a display of confidence and grandeur; two top experts per clan were enough.
“Shi Qingbing of the Shi Clan!” Tang Surou looked at the tall and thin man from the Shi Clan, showing a touch of apprehension.
Ye Qiu looked at Shi Qingbing, whom Tang Surou ntioned, and asked, “Is this person very strong?”
Tang Surou nodded, “His strength ranks within the top three among the youths in the ancient lands.
At twenty, he was already a legendary expert, and now he has been in the legendary realm for a full four years.
Every ti I see him, he seems even more terrifying.”
“With Shi Qingbing among this generation of the Shi Clan, no clan dares to act rashly against them, and taking any opportunity from them would be extrely difficult.” It seed, Tang Surou’s dread of the three great ancient clans far exceeded Ye Qiu’s expectations; he hadn’t expected Tang Surou to be so wary of this figure.
“The Shi Clan…” Ye Qiu muttered.
From what he understood, the Shi Clan did not participate in annihilating the Dugu Clan as they had remained neutral, according to Elder Mo.
Ye Qiu glanced at Shi Qingbing and a few other youths around him, then shifted his focus to the Ji Clan.
The Ji Clan was his, Ye Qiu’s, greatest enemy, the main culprit behind the destruction of the Dugu Clan.
The leading figure of this generation in the Ji Clan, nad Ji Lingchen, was acclaid as the foremost person in the ancient lands.
To many of his generation, he seed an uncatchable figure, like a cot, dazzling from birth, as if he was the darling of martial arts.
Now just over twenty, he had already reached the pinnacle of the legendary realm.
It was said that if not for wanting to enter the Great Emperor’s tomb, Ji Lingchen would have broken through the Mythical realm two years ago.
Suppressing his power for two years, Ji Lingchen’s martial accumulation was terrifying, to put it mildly.
Even Tang Surou showed a trace of fear when ntioning him, a genius martial artist destined to dazzle the entire ancient lands, and the next appointed leader of the Ji Clan by the Clan Leader.
Ji Lingchen was undoubtedly the number one among the young generation in the ancient lands and could even hold his own against many older martial artists in higher realms.
An almost mythical figure, Ji Lingchen not only had exceptional martial talent but also possessed a handso appearance—sothing Ye Qiu had to admit, even if reluctantly.
This guy was extrely good-looking, with skin even fairer and finer than a woman’s.
Dressed in white, he stood there like a Banished Immortal descended to the mortal world, exuding an almost celestial aura from his entire being.
This was a man who could live well just by his looks, but he also possessed formidable strength and a powerful background.
This point would probably make many people green with envy.
Ye Qiu discovered that he could not fathom the depths of Ji Lingchen, always feeling as if this man’s presence was like a black hole, elusive and unfathomable.
The more it was so, the more wary Ye Qiu beca of him.
Even with the dark powers he possessed, Ye Qiu dared not claim he had enough confidence to defeat Ji Lingchen.
“It seems the Ji family is much more formidable than I imagined, and dealing with Ji Lingchen really won’t be easy.” Feeling the force of this powerful and inscrutable enemy, Ye Qiu felt vexed for the first ti.
Even when he had faced Liusheng Suzuo, he had never felt this way.
Perhaps it was because Ye Qiu’s gaze was too intense, Ji Lingchen’s eyes shifted instantly, locking onto Ye Qiu amidst the crowd of Tang clan mbers.
Ye Qiu’s mask caused Ji Lingchen to furrow his brow—he did not like the look that Ye Qiu had just given.
As for that mask, it made him feel even more repulsed, a repulsion without any apparent cause.
“What’s wrong, young master?” A clan elder by Ji Lingchen’s side saw his furrowed brow and couldn’t help but ask.
Ji Lingchen withdrew his gaze, which had clashed with Ye Qiu’s, and smiled faintly, “It’s nothing, just saw sothing interesting, that’s all.”
“That’s good to hear, the tomb of the Great Emperor is about to open.
Although your strength is superior, young master, I still think you should be cautious.”
Ji Lingchen slowly nodded, “The tomb of the Great Emperor, I have wanted to explore it for a long ti.
Thirty years ago, my father obtained an incredible opportunity in the tomb, which led to the rise of the Ji family.
Naturally, I, Ji Lingchen, will continue my father’s fortune and make our Ji family even stronger.”
“Young master is the foremost person of the ancient lands and also the favored one of the heavens.
The great opportunities within the tomb of the Great Emperor naturally belong to you, young master.
The offspring of other ancient clans are rely side characters.”
“Hmm.
My father didn’t manage to seize that opportunity last ti he entered the tomb of the Great Emperor.
This ti, let fulfill this wish for him.” In Ji Lingchen’s gentle words, there was an invincible confidence.
“That’s only natural, with the young master’s talent, even the toughest trials cannot hinder you.” The elder said, his status was already very high as an elder of the Ji family, but when facing Ji Lingchen, he lowered his status significantly, which showed the exceptional position Ji Lingchen held within the Ji family, as even the elders had to show the utmost respect.
Ye Qiu saw Ji Lingchen glance at him.
He did not look away but t his gaze for a full second, spotting a flash of disdain in the other’s eyes before turning away.
This Ji Lingchen, he would eventually trample him underfoot.
Ye Qiu quickly surveyed the two great ancient clans and finally his gaze landed on the Mu clan.
His eyes suddenly widened in shock as he saw standing beside a young man of the Mu clan was a maid who made Ye Qiu lose his focus.
“Ye Zi…
she’s actually here…” Ye Qiu’s heart stirred, recalling what Tang Yao had told him.
He had said he knew where Ye Zi was, but hadn’t specified her location, only ntioning that her situation wasn’t exactly dangerous, yet not safe either.
If one’s strength wasn’t strong enough, it was best not to seek her out as it might endanger her.
Ye Qiu had never forgotten, always kept it in mind, and had intended to inquire further from Tang Yao after leaving the ancient lands.
However, now that Ye Zi appeared here, Ye Qiu instantly understood what Tang Yao had been wary of—the Mu clan of the ancient lands.
“The Mu clan…” Ye Qiu’s eyes flashed murderously under his rigid mask, his sister Ye Zi’s face already filled his vision, and he could not allow her to serve others as a maid.
“The people of the Mu clan deserve to die!” Murder boiled in Ye Qiu’s heart.
anwhile, the puzzled Mu Canshou standing beside Ye Zi glanced in the direction of the Tang clan, feeling a surge of murderous intent aid directly at him.
“Could I be mistaken?
Does soone from the Tang clan have the guts?” Mu Canshou chuckled dismissively, casting aside the scene of Ye Qiu releasing his murderous intent.
