Wei Yunsheng's voice caused Wei Lang to tremble in fear, "These people surnamed Yan might not be of the Dim Darkness Sect, but they are jackals of the same tribe who have come to the Dim Darkness Sect. They must be traitors as well. General Yang would be very happy to accept them."
Wei Lang's lips trembled, "Second Uncle, they saved my life earlier. It was also because they believed in us that they came to Labour Wind City …"
Wei Yunsheng smiled coldly, "I am also saving your life now, saving all of our lives."
"Since this brat surnamed Yan is so willing to help others, I believe that he would not be stingy in helping us once more. With their lives, we can save thousands of people of my Wei Family. His merit is immeasurable. He should be happy to do so as well."
Wei Lang opened his mouth wide, turning to look at his father in panic.
His brows knit tightly, Wei Yunchang had just been about to speak when old Granduncle Wei said coldly beside him, "Today's events are all due to the reckless actions of you father and son, Yunchang."
Amidst his words, a few figures appeared. Glancing at them, Wei Yunchang's heart sunk. He saw that these were all Elders of the Wei Family who usually did not manage affairs, instead focusing solely on cultivating.
These old monsters were all not beneath his in terms of cultivation bases. This Sixth Uncle before him was even the number one expert of the Wei Family.
While he was the Patriarch, with so many Elders simultaneously expressing their opposition, Wei Yunchang felt immense pressure.
Old Granduncle Wei said in a heavy tone, "Yunchang, do you still not understand? Yunsheng has already contacted General Yang. Why was this old man still forced to leave seclusion? It was precisely because I wanted to capture these traitors with my own hands! "
"Handing them over on our own accord and having them search for us are completely different results."
Looking at Wei Yunchang, old Granduncle Wei slowed his tone, "It is not too late to mend the pen after the sheep are lost."
Wei Yunchang said in a heavy tone, "The Grand Xuan Dynasty has acted perversely. Currently, the entire Royal Reed Sea is against them. While I have tacitly allowed Lang 'er to travel with the people of the Dim Darkness Sect, aren't you and second brother also standing on the side of the Grand Xuan Dynasty now? Also, you are the ones who betrayed the Dim Darkness Sect. "
"If the Grand Xuan Dynasty is really overthrown in the future, we will definitely be held accountable by the Dim Darkness Sect. Also, we will be hated by them even more than the other powers which are vassals of the Grand Xuan Dynasty."
Wei Yunchang said rather painfully, "Even if you are not on the same side as the Dim Darkness Sect, why must you completely fall out with them like this? Just drive them away from this place. "
Old Granduncle Wei snorted. "You, as a clan leader, have really become muddle-headed. It seems like it was indeed a mistake for the clan to hand you the helm back then."
"You are just like those mediocre people, only seeing that the Grand Xuan Dynasty has currently fallen into a low ebb, with its founder King Xuanwen having perished and the current King Xuanmu being powerless to suppress the world. Yet, do you not think about where the Founding Ancestor King Xuancheng is?"
Wei Yunchang was startled. "Didn't King Xuancheng die earlier than King Xuanwen?"
Old Granduncle Wei said, "King Xuanwen's death is something that is certain, but King Xuancheng's whereabouts are unknown. The royal family of the Great Xuan Dynasty is extremely secretive about it. His death is merely a guess of the masses. Who would dare pat their chest and say that King Xuancheng is definitely dead?"
Wei Yunchang frowned, "King Xuancheng's cultivation base cannot be compared to King Xuanwen's. Even if he is still alive, he might not be able to rule the Royal Reed Sea."
Old Granduncle Wei waved his hand, "King Xuancheng and King Xuanmu are both present. Even if the Grand Xuan Dynasty cannot win, it will be very hard for them to lose. As long as they do not lose, other places aside, this Phoenix Bearing Region will still be the world of the Grand Xuan Dynasty. Our Wei Family will still be living and flourishing within the territory of the Grand Xuan Dynasty. How can we offend them?"
His tone turned stern, "Yunchang, you have already committed a grave mistake. Now, it is the entire clan that is bearing the risk alongside you father and son!"
Wei Yunsheng now said from the side, "Sixth Uncle, please calm your anger. There is also no need to be in a hurry to act."
Old Granduncle Wei raised his white brows, "Are you worried that this old man will not be able to take down a few juniors? Such a young Martial Grandmaster is indeed rare. Still, how high can they be? The Essence Talisman Martial Grandmaster realm? "
Wei Yunsheng said, "Firstly, there is no harm in being careful. At the end of the day, we do not know their background, also not knowing if they have experts lying in ambush outside our Labour Wind City."
"Secondly, from what I heard from their words, it seems that they want to contact other Dim Darkness Sect martial practitioners over. Under such circumstances, whether the Phoenix Bearing General wants to first capture him or slowly plot against him, it is best that we do not make a decision on our own."
"I have already truthfully reported the situation to the Phoenix Bearing General. Let's wait for the people of the Grand Xuan Dynasty to arrive before making a decision. We just need to stabilize the situation here."
Hearing his words, old Granduncle Wei pondered for a moment before nodding, "Keep a close eye on them."
He swivelled his head and glanced at the pale Wei Lang, "Confine yourself and reflect on your actions."
Wei Yunchang's face tensed as he fell silent.
… …
Having learnt some more about the current situation of the Radiant Light Sect from Zhang Qiansong, Yan Zhaoge was very satisfied.
Old Man Mo's intelligence had already been a matter of over a hundred years ago as it could only serve as a general reference. Zhang Qiansong, however, had first-hand, real-time information that was much more useful.
Zhang Qiansong was heavily injured at the end of the day. Also having been busy contacting his seniors of the Dim Darkness Sect as well as conversing with Yan Zhaoge, he very quickly found himself lacking in energy once more.
After he had rested, Yan Zhaoge left his room. Standing in the courtyard, he gazed up at the brilliant sky up above as he pondered.
The intelligence that Zhang Qiansong had provided earlier surfaced in Yan Zhaoge's mind one by one.
"Luo Zhiyuan, the Chief of the Radiant Light Sect, was already an expert of the late Seeing Divinity stage over a hundred years ago. While he has yet to break through to the seventh level of the Martial Saint realm and step into the Immortal Bridge stage, he is probably just lacking that final step. It would not be too much to say that he is currently one of the most powerful Seeing Divinity Martial Saints of the Royal Reed Sea."
"They have the high-grade Sacred Artifact, the Sun Moon Wheels, guarding over them. Still, the moon wheel was damaged many years ago and no longer possesses its former might, causing the power of the two wheels to decline as well. Still, they are treasures that transcend the heavens and penetrate the earth."
Yan Zhaoge smacked his lips, "The old saying is indeed right. A starved camel is still bigger than a horse. Despite having been destroyed for so many years, the Dim Radiant Sect still has some of its foundation left behind."
As he pondered, Yan Zhaoge gazed up at the stars above his head, inhaling and exhaling the spiritual qi of the world as he felt relaxed to the extreme.
At this moment, he seemed to feel as though the heavens and earth before him had returned to the era before the Great Calamity.
Within his illusory consciousness, the long river of time seemed to surge on a grand, unstoppable scale.
Yan Zhaoge felt as though he was standing in the present, facing off against the long, distant years of time.
Many comprehensions, many thoughts, all cleansed and tempered his inner heart.
Streams of clear qi emanated, enveloping this courtyard as those outside were unable to clearly see what was going on within.
Beneath the clear qi was a clump of chaos, neither beginning nor ending.
The acupoints of Yan Zhaoge's entire body pulsed, numerous runes flying out from within, condensing into a formation which then stacked on top of one another, jointly establishing a heavenly altar that resembled a pagoda whilst also a sacrificial altar.
Atop the heavenly altar, infinite radiance changed unceasingly, as though time was flowing in reverse between the heavens and the earth, returning to before the creation of the heavens and the earth, returning to before the primordial world had been established.
All existences finally transformed into chaos, seeming to pervade the heavens and the earth as they encompassed the entire area. Yet, at the same time, they also seemed to be congregated at an indescribable point.
Amidst the changes in chaos, the figure of a person was seated within, indistinct at times. However, looking carefully, it also seemed as though he did not exist at all.
Yan Zhaoge smiled mildly, "Entering Transcending Mortality today, I am able to see a portion of Primordial Beginning."
