Battle race, Xing family.
The Xing family was located in the southeast region of the Battle Race Realm. Their realm was many times larger than the Yang family's.
Of the Eight Great Battle Clans, there were only four: the Xuan Yuan, Hou, Yang, and Li families. Later on, the Xing, Qin, Sun, and Lu families appeared.
In the beginning, the Xing family was at the bottom of the Eight Great Battle Clans. However, their ancestor found a fiery realm that was very suitable for the Xing family to develop. Thus, they settled down in that fiery realm and began to spread their bloodline.
That realm was called the "Xing Huo Realm".
Legend has it that Xing Huo was a demonic flame that fell from the outer realms. It had the ability to burn and devour. Its destructive power was too terrifying. Only the Xing family could use their bloodline power to absorb and refine it.
The Xing family's Xing Huo was continuously refined from the Xing Huo Realm.
The Eight Great Battle Clans had gone through countless years of development. There were prosperous clans and declining clans. However, the Xing family had been able to steadily rise because they owned the Xing Huo Realm.
Today, the Xing family was ranked third. If it wasn't for the fact that they weren't as strong as the Xuan Yuan and Hou families, they wouldn't have been in this position.
Over the years, the Xing family had experienced a few qualitative leaps. Five thousand years ago, they had joined forces with Mount Emei to suppress the Yang family's most outstanding saint level prodigy, Yang Taihe. From there, they took the opportunity to invade the Yang family, catching them off guard. From there, they took over a lot of the Yang family's territory and obtained a lot of cultivation resources. They also obtained a lot of good things from the dragon tomb, helping the younger generation of the Xing family to grow quickly. It could be said that the Xing family had stepped on the Yang family to rise up.
It turned out that the Yang family was much stronger than the Xing family. However, since ancient times, the Yang family had been the family that worked the hardest to kill demons. Countless of their experts had died at the hands of demons, causing them to be greatly weakened. This was why the Xing family took advantage of the situation.
In the Transcendent Realm, the Yang family's status and reputation was unquestionable five thousand years ago. However, five thousand years later, the Yang family had been reduced to a second-rate power. It was truly lamentable.
Within the Xing family, the upper echelons of the Xing family were having a meeting.
The Xing family's patriarch announced a second expedition against the Yang family and asked the Xing elders for their opinion.
"The Yang Clan can't even withstand a single blow. Now is the time to wipe them out." A Holy Elder from the Xing Clan said.
"Didn't the Nether Sun Saint Elder just fight with the Yang Family's Great Grandmother? She has the Yang Clan's Dragon Rebel Spear. If we charge in recklessly, I'm afraid it won't end well for us. "Another Sacred Elder said.
Xing Mingyang sat on the first seat on the left and said in a low voice, "That old woman is indeed powerful. Fairy Wuqing, Tian Peng Daoist, and I were all injured by her. A Heaven's Reach Realm cultivator is indeed not to be trifled with."
The Xing Clan Leader sat on the main seat and smiled. "I just received news that the old woman won't live for more than a month."
The eyes of the Sage Elders of the Xing Clan lit up.
If the Yang Clan lost this Tongtian level figure, then the other Yang Clan Sages would not be a threat.
"There's one more thing to consider. Yang Taihe was rescued by them. With that guy's battle prowess …" Another Sacred Elder objected.
Xing Mingyang waved his hand and smiled. "Yang Taihe is not a threat. Even though he was rescued, he won't be able to recover in a hundred years. Even if he recovers, he won't be able to return to his peak. It's a miracle that he survived five thousand years of Xing Fire. If he can recover, then wouldn't it mean that our Xing Fire is useless?"
"That's true." A Sacred Elder replied.
"Sacred Elder Mingyang, you should've given him a quick death. Why did you leave him behind?" Someone complained.
In the past, Yang Taihe had suppressed the geniuses of the Battle Clan Realm for an entire generation. It was only after he was trapped that he finally came to an end. The Xing Clan Sacred Elder who spoke was one of Yang Taihe's defeated opponents.
"So what if he can withstand five thousand years of torture? In a month, we'll completely uproot the Yang Clan." Xing Mingyang snorted coldly.
… …
In less than a month, the Yang Clan spread the news of the Yang Clan's Great Grandmother's death.
Even though the Yang Clan requested for this news to be kept a secret, it was unknown who spread the news. The higher-ups of the Eight Great Battle Clans knew about it.
Only the Yang Clan's Sacred Elder knew about the death of the Yang Clan's Great Grandmother. This meant that there was a traitor in the Yang Clan's Sacred Elder.
The Yang Clan began to investigate the traitor. They must find this traitor.
After a series of deductions, everyone's gaze locked onto a Sacred Elder with a different surname. He was Yu Chang An.
Yu Chang An was a legendary figure. He had the bloodline power of the Yang Clan's Black Tortoise bloodline. Furthermore, he had awakened seventy percent of his bloodline power. He gradually grew from a nobody to an outstanding genius.
His father was a nobody. His mother was a girl from a side branch of the Yang Clan. It was inconceivable that he could awaken such a dense bloodline power.
Ever since Yu Chang An was recruited back to the Yang Clan, the cultivation resources that the Yang Clan gave him were limited. He had to rely on his own efforts to grow. It was only until he broke through the Star Rune Realm that he was invited back by the Yang Clan to be a Sacred Elder. When Yu Chang An returned, he made a request. He wanted to keep his original surname and was not willing to change it. After a discussion, the Sacred Elders of the Yang Clan allowed Yu Chang An to do so.
All these years, Yu Chang An had been very low profile in the Yang Clan. The things that the Yang Clan arranged for him, he would complete them properly. The things that were not arranged for him, he would never do them. He would quietly cultivate or accompany his family at home. He was known for being a filial son. To put it bluntly, he did not fit in with the crowd.
Yu Chang An was a very scholarly looking youth. He looked to be around thirty years old. Even though his actual age was over three hundred years old, the years did not leave any traces on his face.
He was wearing a navy blue robe. His face was filled with a gentle smile. He gave off an amiable feeling.
Facing the questioning of the Sacred Elders of the Yang Clan, Yu Chang An did not take it to heart. He calmly replied, "The news of Great Grandmother's death, did any of you tell me?"
The Sacred Elders of the Yang Clan were stunned.
Even though Yu Chang An had the right to participate in the Sacred Elders' discussions, he had never taken the initiative to participate. Unless the Clan Leader invited him, he would only go. He did not participate in the recent Sacred Elders' discussions. He did not even know about Great Grandmother's death.
The Sacred Elders of the Yang Clan made a big mistake. Looking at Yu Chang An's calm expression, they felt extremely guilty.
Even though they did not like Yu Chang An, Yu Chang An had never done anything to let down the Yang Clan.
Now that the important news of the Yang Clan was exposed, they pushed the blame to him. This was too unreasonable.
"I think everyone should prepare for battle. I feel that a storm is coming." Yu Chang An calmly said. He turned around and went back into the house. In his hand, he held a normal looking sword and walked out.
Just as his voice fell, a black fire dragon suddenly came crashing down from the sky above the Yang Clan.
Rumble rumble!
This black fire dragon was extremely ferocious. The power it contained was earth-shattering. It was definitely a power that could only be created by a top grade sacred object.
The Yang Clan's land shook violently. Many old and weak women could not withstand the impact of this power and died on the spot. The others also suffered from different degrees of impact. They all cried out in pain.
"Who dares to destroy our Yang Clan's land!" The Sacred Elder of the Yang Clan roared.
In the next moment, many Sacred Elders of the Yang Clan rushed into the sky. They used their powerful power to stop the fire dragon from destroying the Yang Clan's land.
The power of the land could create a space. The Yang Clan's land was a space created by itself. Now that someone had attacked their door, it was obvious that the other party wanted to start a war with the Yang Clan.
"Today, the Yang Clan will be destroyed!" A merciless power faintly announced.
Outside the Yang Clan's land, twenty Sacred Elders of the Xing Clan gathered. They were all Level 5 Celestial Rune Realm Sacred Elders of the Xing Clan. None of them were below Level 5 Celestial Rune Realm. For the Xing Clan to send out such a force, it was obvious that they wanted to completely destroy the Yang Clan.
"It's the Xing Clan. How dare they do this."
"Cut the crap. Let's kill our way out. We must not let them destroy the land. Otherwise, our clansmen will be killed."
"Are the rules of the War Clan broken? They actually dared to start a civil war! "
"The Xing Clan is too much. Do they really think that our Yang Clan is easy to bully? Today, even if we have to risk our lives, we will make them pay the price."
…
The Sacred Elders of the Yang Clan were shocked and furious. They did not even know that the Xing Clan had suddenly attacked. It must be the work of a traitor.
Now, they no longer had the time to catch the traitor. They had to kill the strong enemy first.
The Yang Clan's defense was activated. They strengthened the land layer by layer to prevent the Xing Clan from killing their way in.
Many Yang Clan Saints rushed out of the clan. They only had 15 Saint Elders, which was even fewer than the Xing Clan. Fortunately, they still had three Saint-level Guardian Sacred Demons. However, these three Sacred Demons were the Yang Clan's last line of defense. They would not be deployed easily.
The number of Sacred Elders did not mean everything. The strength of the Sacred Elders was the most important.
The Xing Clan's Sacred Elders had all reached Level 5 Celestial Rune Realm. Among the fifteen Sacred Elders of the Yang Clan, only five of them had reached Level 5 Celestial Rune Realm. They were the Yang Clan's Patriarch Yang Qingxing, Yang Muzhen, Yang Mulou, Yang Liuyu, and Yu Chang 'an. The rest were all below Level 5 Celestial Rune Realm.
How were they going to fight this battle?
The Sacred Elders of the Yang Clan asked themselves.
Only then did they realize that the gap between them and the Xing Clan had widened over the years.
"Xing Laoyang, is your Xing Clan really going to fight to the death with our Yang Clan?" Yang Qing glared at the leader of the Xing Clan and shouted.
Xing Laoyang was Xing Mingyang's cousin. He was slightly stronger than Xing Mingyang. He was the leader of the Xing Clan this time.
Xing Laoyang was a muscular middle-aged man. He wore a black cape and held the Fire Dragon Barrier in his hand. This was a top-tier Sacred Weapon. He was the one who had activated the attack to break the Yang Clan's land barrier.
"Hehe, our two clans have long been at odds with each other. If it were not for the rules of the War Clan Realm, we would have destroyed your Yang Clan long ago." Xing Laoyang sneered. He paused for a moment before continuing, "This time, we will destroy your Yang Clan with lightning speed. Even if the other clans want to stop us, it will be too late. Attack together and slaughter them all!"
