It must be said, even he didn’t know how terrifying the Yang Clan’s power truly was.
What was revealed now was merely the tip of the iceberg…
At that moment, a shadowy figure appeared before Dongli Nan and the others.
The figure coldly glanced at Tai Gu Yuan in the distance, “Not content to scrape by in hiding, you’ve come back?”
Tai Gu Yuan looked at the figure and said, “Man Tian, it’s been a while!”
The figure, called Man Tian, suddenly waved his right hand, unleashing a terrifying force towards Tai Gu Yuan.
Master Jun swiftly drew his sword and slashed.
Boom!
The terrifying force was torn apart!
Man Tian looked at Master Jun, eyes narrowing, “And who are you?”
Dongli Nan glanced at Man Tian, “The Primordial Clan is returning to Primordial City. Got a problem with that?”
Man Tian laughed in anger, “You think you can just waltz back?”
Dongli Nan suddenly said, “Kill!”
Master Jun charged forward!
Swish!
A sword light tore through the sky.
Boom!
Man Tian was sent flying tens of thousands of feet by the strike.
As Master Jun prepared to strike again, an old man appeared in the field, saying, “Wait!”
Dongli Nan waved her hand lightly, and Master Jun stepped aside.
The old man glanced at Dongli Nan and said, “My Barbaric Clan is willing to withdraw from Primordial City!”
In the distance, Man Tian roared, “Clan Leader…”
The old man coldly glared at him, “Shut up!”
Man Tian’s heart trembled, and he dared not speak again, knowing the clan leader was furious!
Dongli Nan looked at the old man, saying nothing.
She was hesitating!
The old man clearly sensed her intent and quickly said, “Madam, from this moment, my Barbaric Clan will leave Primordial City and never return. If we break this oath, may my clan vanish from time itself!”
Dongli Nan was silent for a moment, then said, “I’ll let you go, but remember your words. If your Barbaric Clan dares trouble the Primordial Clan again, I’ll make sure you’re erased from existence!”
The old man hurriedly said, “Understood!”
Dongli Nan waved, “Go!”
The old man turned and left.
Soon, countless Barbaric Clan powerhouses fled Primordial City, and in no time, it became an empty city.
Tai Gu Yuan led the Primordial Clan to the city gates, staring at the walls, his eyes filled with bewilderment.
How many years had it been?
The Primordial Clan members were beside themselves with excitement.
They were finally back!
As if recalling something, Tai Gu Yuan turned to Ye Xuan, strode over, and bowed deeply, “Young Lord, thank you!”
Ye Xuan asked, “The Barbaric Clan is…?”
Tai Gu Yuan gave a bitter smile, “Our ancient rivals. They grew stronger, suppressed us, and we fled…”
He sighed, his tone heavy with complexity.
Ye Xuan nodded slightly, “They shouldn’t dare trouble you again!”
Tai Gu Yuan smiled, “I know!”
Man Tian might be clueless, but he knew the Barbaric Clan’s leader could see the situation clearly.
This group was not something the Barbaric Clan could provoke.
Ye Xuan suddenly said, “Senior, we’ll take our leave!”
Tai Gu Yuan hesitated, then said, “Young Master Ye, take care!”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Until we meet again!”
He turned to Dongli Nan, “Mother, let’s go!”
Dongli Nan nodded.
Soon, they departed.
Tai Gu Yuan gazed into the starry depths, murmuring, “Terrifying beyond measure…”
…
Elsewhere.
After the Barbaric Clan’s leader led his people away, some members were indignant.
In the starry sky, they argued noisily.
“Shut up!”
The Barbaric Clan leader suddenly roared.
The crowd quieted, looking at him.
His face was grim, “Do you think I wanted to leave Primordial City? Didn’t you see the powerhouses that woman brought? The weakest were Time Immortals, over a thousand of them, and the leaders were Samsara Walkers. What could our Barbaric Clan possibly do against such a terrifying force?”
The Barbaric Clan members fell silent.
An old man said gravely, “What kind of force are they?”
The leader shook his head, “I don’t know!”
Unknown!
That was the most terrifying part!
He knew the major powers of the known universes, but not Dongli Nan’s group. This meant they were a force beyond their comprehension!
That’s why he’d surrendered and left Primordial City without hesitation.
Another old man said gravely, “Clan Leader, are we just leaving like this?”
The leader was silent, his face dark, lost in thought.
At that moment, Master Jun appeared.
Seeing him, the leader frowned, and the Barbaric Clan members grew wary.
Master Jun glanced at the leader and said, “The Mistress sent me to deliver a message. She has no interest in your feud with the Primordial Clan. We helped them because they aided our Young Lord. This was merely repayment, nothing more!”
The leader said gravely, “Who are you people?”
Master Jun replied, “The Yang Clan!”
The leader frowned, “Yang Clan? Never heard of it!”
Master Jun nodded, “That’s normal, we’re not from this universe.”
He glanced around, “Isn’t the strongest force here the Demon Sky Clan?”
The leader nodded, “Yes!”
Master Jun said calmly, “Their ancestor, Demon Sky, was imprisoned for centuries by the Sword Lord for a slight offense. He was only recently freed!”
The leader’s pupils shrank, “You…”
Master Jun said calmly, “You saw that young man earlier, didn’t you?”
The leader nodded, “I did!”
Master Jun said, “He’s the Yang Clan’s Young Lord, training out here. If you meet him in the future, please show him some courtesy.”
The leader quickly said, “Naturally! Of course!”
Master Jun nodded, opened his palm, and a storage ring floated to the leader, “This contains a legacy that could help you surpass the Samsara Walker level.”
The leader froze, took the ring, and scanned it. His face changed, then lit up with excitement. He looked at Master Jun, trembling, “Thank you… thank you!”
Master Jun nodded, “Farewell!”
He turned and vanished into the starry sky.
The leader burst into wild laughter, “Jackpot, damn it, my Barbaric Clan hit the jackpot…”
The clan members were baffled.
The leader suddenly waved, projecting Ye Xuan’s image, and barked, “Memorize this face! If you meet him, treat him with utmost respect! If he needs help, do everything you can to assist, understood?”
The crowd: “…”
…
Elsewhere.
In the starry sky, Dongli Nan looked at Ye Xuan, “Really not coming with me?”
Ye Xuan shook his head, “Not for now! I’ll find you later!”
She was silent for a moment, then said, “Alright!”
She glanced at Master Jun, “How are those three kids?”
Master Jun nodded, “Rare talents, once in ten thousand years! They’ve reached Time Controller level. Reaching Time Immortal depends on them, but for those three, it’s just a matter of time!”
Dongli Nan nodded, “Good!”
She looked at Ye Xuan, “I’m off!”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Mother, take care!”
She smiled, straightened his disheveled clothes, and said, “You too!”
She hugged him gently, slipped a storage ring into his hand, and turned to leave.
The powerhouses saluted Ye Xuan and followed her.
Ye Xuan stared into the starry depths, gripping the ring tightly, his heart a tangle of emotions.
…
In the distant starry depths, Dongli Nan stopped. Behind her, the powerhouses grew excited, bowing deeply with utmost respect!
Not far off stood a man in a green robe!
The Sword Lord!
Dongli Nan walked to his side, saying softly, “Why didn’t you give it to him yourself?”
The man laughed, “Whether I give it or you do, what’s the difference?”
She rolled her eyes, “Of course there’s a difference! A big one!”
He shook his head, silent.
She sighed, “You and your son…”
The man said softly, “Destiny, Brother Xiao Yao, and I have high hopes for him, that he’ll reach or surpass our level… The order of this vast universe must be in his hands, or Destiny and I won’t rest easy. That one from the Milky Way, their stance is unclear, their intent ambiguous. We can’t take the risk…”
He shook his head, his expression complex.
Dongli Nan said gravely, “Can’t we just kill them?”
The man smiled, “We could! But not now!”
She was puzzled, “Why not?”
He sighed, “Strictly speaking, they’re not exactly evil, and…”
He shook his head again,无奈, “We three have stepped beyond certain boundaries, but that kid hasn’t… We still need that one…”
He smiled, “Enough of these complicated things! Let’s go!”
Dongli Nan suddenly said, “If you want to train him, why have us help him?”
He rolled his eyes, “I want to train him, not kill him! What… do you all really think he’s not my own son?”
Dongli Nan: “…”
