"At present … we can only … form an alliance! The Great Elder said in a heavy voice, "Our current enemies are King of Hell Chu, Shuo Clan, Ji Clan, Luo Clan, and Dong Clan because of this matter. In addition, there are two of their staunch allies — Mo Clan and Xie Clan!"
The Great Elder raised his fingers and coldly said, "But, Gu Clan is the weakest. Mo Clan has just suffered a great change. So, its strength can't be considered as strong. Ji Clan is the same. We can't rely on them. But, we can't pull them down. Only Luo Clan, Dong Clan, and Xie Clan are comparable in strength to our Ou Clan. "
He heaved a long sigh and sadly said, "Our clan has just lost so many experts. So, we can't be compared with these three clans … This old man made a mistake in his calculation."
He paused, and didn't speak for a long time. Then, he continued with a sorrowful look on his face, "Let's analyze the situation of the enemy and our own clans."
"Ji Clan and Gao Clan already have irreconcilable enmity. Mo Clan and Black Devil Clan are also irreconcilable. Dong Clan and Tian Clan are also constantly fighting. Shuo Clan and Tu Clan have deep enmity. There's also the Zhao Clan. They've been suppressed by the Luo Clan for a long time … Meng Xu, who's in a difficult situation now … is also a force to be reckoned with. As for the Xie Clan, they've been at odds with the Li Clan ever since Xie Dan Qiong rejected their marriage proposal! "
The Great Elder said in a profound manner, "The enemy of our enemy is our friend. If we can get in touch with them, we will be able to … "The power of the eight great clans is not weak …"
The Great Elder was worthy of being called an experienced and astute Jiang Hu veteran. His calculations were very clear and orderly. Although they had suffered a great change, they hadn't lost their minds.
Ou Cheng Wu's eyes lit up, "Great Elder is wise!"
"Well, the enemy has faintly joined forces. And, we need to start our operation now. We are a step behind in terms of time … But, they have to deal with the spirit beasts this time. This is our time! "
The Great Elder frowned, "But, we need to be especially vigilant against … the Dark Bamboo! I heard that Duke Yu of the Dark Bamboo has a good personal relationship with King of Hell Chu … I don't know how good this relationship is? Will it affect the Dark Bamboo's attack? "
"If the Dark Bamboo attacks, we have no chance of winning." Ou Cheng Wu's complexion turned gloomy as he said, "Even if we contact the Ao Clan and the Li Clan to stand on our side, we can only be evenly matched. In fact, we might even be at a disadvantage."
"You're wrong. If Bamboo were to interfere … the situation would become even more chaotic! This is because Bamboo has conflicts with all of the other clans. There have been conflicts … "The Great Elder snorted and said," As for the Ao Clan, don't even think about it. The Ao Clan won't get involved in this mess … unless we kill Ao Xieyun now and shift the blame to these clans … "
Speaking up to this point, he suddenly stopped talking. His eyes were deep as he pondered.
Ou Cheng Wu's eyes also lit up. In an instant, the hall fell silent.
After a long while, Ou Cheng Wu stood up and said, "There's no time to lose. I'll immediately arrange for the people of the great families."
"Bring some natural treasures," the Great Elder said gloomily. "Now that we have a favor to ask of others, we have no choice but to spend money.
Even if we keep those things, we'll just keep them … At the critical moment, we'll need to use them! "
Ou Cheng Wu replied, "Alright." Then, he immediately arranged for Ou Du Xiao to bring some people to get them. Then, he began to arrange the people on this side in a rush to prepare for the diplomatic mission.
However … it didn't take long for Ou Du Xiao to rush over. His entire body was drenched in cold sweat. His face was distorted beyond recognition. It seemed as if he had lost his mind, "It's not good!"
"What's the matter?" Ou Cheng Wu was startled, "Have they already come knocking on our door?"
The Great Elder became even more dissatisfied, "You need to be calm in the face of trouble! How can you be in such a panic? "
Ou Du Xiao's face was covered in soybean-sized beads of sweat. He almost wanted to cry, "Our hidden treasure house has been robbed. Our natural treasures … are gone!"
"What?" The Great Elder fiercely stood up. His chair fell to the ground with a 'bang' sound. However, he didn't care about it. His old eyes that were always hidden in his wrinkles suddenly opened wide like copper bells, "Say that again?!"
"It's been robbed … it's really been robbed …" Ou Du Xiao's voice carried a sobbing tone, "Not even a little bit …"
Ou Cheng Wu fiercely drew back three steps. His complexion had turned as white as snow.
"Let's go and take a look!"
The Great Elder stood in the empty hidden treasure house not long after. He looked at the empty Heavenly Fragrance Jade Boxes. His eyes were lifeless. He didn't speak for a long time. He seemed as if he had lost his soul.
Then, he suddenly spouted out a mouthful of blood after a long time. He then looked up to the sky, "Oh God … is it possible that the Heaven wants my Ou Clan to perish?!"
Ou Cheng Wu's entire body trembled. His vision was in a mess. He muttered, "How can this be …"
The Ou Clan had collected these natural treasures in the past for the purpose of promoting their cultivation. However, many of them had become useless once they had reached a certain amount. Therefore, they had sealed them up. The clan had become more and more powerful. And, they had resorted to all sorts of tricks and robberies. Therefore, they had collected more and more of these things.
In the past, Ou Cheng Wu had only thought that he could slowly cultivate and accumulate these good things since he had so many of them. After all, these natural treasures could be used to make poisons when the clan's poison level had reached a new level. And, these natural treasures could be used to supplement and stimulate the poison. This was the highest level of poison. Therefore, he had always managed them with great care.
However, he hadn't expected that these natural treasures would be stolen at this critical juncture when the Ou Clan needed them the most. "There are still some residual things inside … A lot of them are just powders. And, a lot of them are dried up elixirs," Ou Du Xiao said in a daze.
Ou Cheng Wu suddenly had a flash of inspiration. He said, "Could it be that King of Hell Chu did it?"
Ou Du Xiao shook his head, "It shouldn't be. I've been inseparable from King of Hell Chu ever since he came here. He doesn't have any opportunity to do such a thing! It must be someone else. "
"Investigate!" Ou Cheng Wu roared.
The elixirs were gone. Moreover, the precious materials had been taken away by King of Hell Chu. The Ou Clan was a big clan. But, it had fallen into an awkward situation where it didn't have any gifts to give.
Upper Three Heavens …
Chu Fei Ling's return to the Chu Clan had caused a huge uproar.
No one had expected that Chu Fei Ling would find the Mysterious Yang Jade so quickly.
Mister Yu was greatly surprised when he received the Mysterious Yang Jade. His white beard was blown straight, and his eyes almost popped out of their sockets, "Mysterious Yang Jade Core? Where did you get this treasure? "
"I got it by chance. It's pure luck," Chu Fei Ling smiled gently and elegantly. He didn't want to expose the existence of his little brother. Chu Fei Long would've dealt with him to vent his anger if he had known about it.
"Your luck is very good." Mister Yu looked at him with envy, "This old man has been looking for it for more than a hundred years. But, I haven't even seen a single hair of this thing."
Chu Fei Ling said, "Mister Yu, my father's injury won't be a problem now that I have this thing, right?"
"There's absolutely no problem!" Mister Yu patted his chest and said, "I've brought the Mysterious Yang Jade Core here. So, I might as well smash my own reputation and become a beggar if I still can't heal Clan Lord Chu."
Chu Fei Ling heaved a sigh of relief. He gratefully said, "Thank you, Mister Yu. I've troubled you. "
Mister Yu chuckled.
"Big Brother, I heard that you've returned? Have you found the Mysterious Yang Jade? "a voice was heard. It was full of concern. A man walked in with large strides as this voice sounded. He had a handsome face and a tall stature. He was dressed in a brocade robe. His hair wasn't messy. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's even when he was looking at people in a gentle manner.
But, this person's eyes were as deep as the sea. Moreover, his bearing was extraordinary. He stood like a deep pool and a high mountain. His every move was full of natural authority.
He was the second son of the Chu Clan — Chu Fei Long.
"I've found it. Father's injury shouldn't be a problem," Chu Fei Ling looked at his second brother with a complicated look in his eyes. He then insipidly said.
"That's great!" Chu Fei Long's spirit was suddenly lifted. He grabbed Chu Fei Ling's hand, and said in a pleasantly surprised manner, "Big Brother … we have to thank you for this trip. Third Brother and I haven't been able to eat for the past few days … Alas, it's fortunate that Big Brother came back early. Otherwise, Third Brother would've been blaming himself even if I could've held on … I'm afraid that he wouldn't have been able to hold on."
As he spoke, he sighed, "Third Brother is like this. He's very thoughtful. I've told him a few times. This guy really gives me a headache. "
Chu Fei Ling swallowed his saliva, and his Adam's apple moved. He smiled and said, "Thanks to the two of you for taking care of us during my absence. Second Brother, it's been hard on you. "
Chu Fei Long was displeased. He said earnestly, "Big Brother, what are you saying? We're blood-related brothers. We share the same mother! Besides, it's only right that Zhao Shuo is our father. How can it be hard on me? Big Brother, you've been running around, and this has made me feel uneasy. You must rest well for a few days and recuperate. Big Brother, you're the pillar of our clan. If you collapse from exhaustion, we really don't know what to do. "
He spoke affectionately, and laughed heartily. He held his big brother's hand affectionately. His eyes were full of sincerity.
He stared at his big brother frankly. The rims of his eyes were a little red. It was evident that he was speaking from the bottom of his heart.
Chu Fei Ling sighed sadly in his heart.
He thought of the Saber Emperor who chased after him in the Lower Three Heavens.
Second Brother, is it really you? I'm really willing to believe that the person in front of me is the real you …
Mister Yu looked at this scene, and couldn't help but say enviously, "You brothers have such a good relationship. It's rare to see such brothers in other clans."
Chu Fei Long laughed and said sincerely, "Mister Yu, you're praising me so much that I'm blushing. We share the same mother. If we don't have a good relationship … can we still be brothers? Big Brother has always taken care of us since we were young. He's always shouldered everything for us. He's willing to work hard without complaint … If such a big brother isn't worthy of respect, then there's no big brother in the world who's worthy of respect! "
Mister Yu nodded with gratification and said, "I'm going to treat Clan Master Chu's injuries. You brothers haven't seen each other for a long time. You should have a good chat." He walked in while sighing.
