Chapter 162: Exposing the Soul Clan

~8 min read 1,454 words

The Medicine Ceremony was the only opportunity to find the Shennong Elder, and Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing would not miss it.

As for these Black Demon Lightning bolts, it would not be too late to swallow them after obtaining the Life Flame.

The Yao Clan was located in the Shennong Mountain Range in the southern part of Zhongzhou, quite far from the Beast Domain.

However, for the current Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing, this distance was nothing.

Not long after, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing arrived at the Shennong Mountain Range.

Deep within the Shennong Mountain Range, a massive archway stood majestically, as if connecting two completely different worlds; this was the entrance to the Yao Realm.

Outside the archway, people were already holding jade slips, entering this mysterious land one by one after strict screening by the guards.

Their faces bore either anticipation or awe, and every step they took appeared cautious.

Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing maintained a safe distance from the archway and restrained his aura to the extreme.

Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing waited quietly; his original plan was to wait for the Yao Clan to tear open a gap, allowing the Shennong Elder to escape the Yao Realm, at which point he would strike.

However, as time passed, he gradually sensed that something was wrong.

"Not right, not right." Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing frowned, thinking to himself, "In the original story, the existence of Xiao Yan played a key role in the Shennong Elder being able to escape. Now, Xiao Yan is not here, so whether the Shennong Elder can successfully escape has become an unknown."

Thinking of this, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing could not help but feel a headache.

This was a problem he had not anticipated before coming.

The problem now was that with Xiao Yan absent, the Shennong Elder was very likely to die inside the Yao Realm just like the Yao Clan members.

And Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing himself did not dare to go in; entering the Yao Realm now would be no different from throwing himself into a net; if he went in, he would likely face more misfortune than good...

Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing's brain raced, thinking of any countermeasures that would allow the Shennong Elder to walk out safely.

"The Yao Clan cannot be destroyed yet, at least not during the Medicine Ceremony..." Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing muttered to himself.

Suddenly, a sharp light flashed in his eyes. "Perhaps I can approach this from another angle."

Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing finally thought of a feasible method!

The reason the Soul Clan was able to destroy the Yao Clan was that Xuwu Tun Yan sealed off the Yao Clan's space, preventing people from other clans from knowing the situation inside.

Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing's plan was to inform the Yao Clan in advance of the news that the Soul Clan was about to destroy them, allowing them to be prepared.

Although the Yao Clan might not fully trust this news, having the Ling and Shi Clans as a precedent, they would certainly not take it lightly.

At the very least, this would make the Yan and Lei Clans pay more attention to the Yao Clan's situation, providing the Yao Clan with potential assistance...

Thinking of this, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing no longer hesitated and immediately began to act.

An hour later, the atmosphere inside the Yao Hall was heavy.

Yao Dan, the patriarch of the Yao Clan, was making final preparations for the upcoming Medicine Ceremony, urging the younger generation participating in the ceremony to give their all and not bring shame to the Yao Clan.

Yao Wanhuo hurried into the hall, a trace of anxiety on his face; clearly, he had something important to report.

Seeing this, Yao Dan let the younger generation leave first and then asked Yao Wanhuo what had happened.

"Elder Wanhuo, why are you so anxious? Has something happened?"

They had been preparing for this Medicine Ceremony for a long time, and Yao Dan would absolutely not allow any accidents at this critical moment.

"Patriarch, just a moment ago, a mysterious person sent a letter!"

If he had caught that person, Yao Wanhuo would not have called them a mysterious person.

Therefore, Yao Dan asked: "A mysterious person? Is their strength even greater than yours?"

Yao Wanhuo's strength was that of a Six-Star Dou Saint; a Six-Star Dou Saint's strength was already top-tier on the continent, and there were not many people on this continent who could easily escape from Yao Wanhuo's hands.

"Yes, after the opponent shot the letter at me, they left, and I couldn't catch up at all."

"What is the content of the letter?" Yao Dan asked in a deep voice.

Yao Wanhuo shook his head and replied: "This letter was left with a seal, and I couldn't break it for a while..."

Yao Dan's brows were tightly locked; to have such strength, the letter left behind was enough for him to take seriously.

Yao Dan extended his hand and took the letter handed over by Yao Wanhuo.

After investigating, Yao Dan discovered that there was indeed a seal, and only then did he slowly inject his Dou Qi into the letter, beginning to attempt to break the seal.

With the injection of Dou Qi, the seal on the letter was broken by Yao Dan.

The content of this letter was: "The Soul Clan is plotting to destroy the Yao Clan during the Medicine Ceremony..."

Yao Dan stood up from his seat abruptly, staring fixedly at the letter in his hand.

Seeing his patriarch's reaction, Yao Wanhuo was both confused and curious.

"Patriarch, what is written in this letter?"

After calming his emotions, Yao Dan handed the letter in his hand to Yao Wanhuo; his expression was heavy, clearly the content of this letter had brought him great shock.

Yao Wanhuo was the strongest person in the Yao Clan besides him, so there was naturally no problem with letting him see it.

Moreover, Yao Dan's heart was a bit chaotic now, and he also wanted Yao Wanhuo to analyze it for him.

Yao Wanhuo took the letter, and after seeing the content on it, his eyes also widened, his face full of disbelief.

"Patriarch, this..." Yao Wanhuo looked at Yao Dan, his eyes full of doubt and shock.

Yao Dan had also sat down by now, but his brows were still tightly locked.

"What do you think? Is the content of this letter credible?"

Yao Wanhuo: "Patriarch, the origin of this letter is unknown; could there be a trap?"

"If the Soul Clan really wants to destroy our Yao Clan, why not choose another time?"

One must know that those invited by them to participate in the Medicine Ceremony were all powerful experts or experts proficient in alchemy, and their strength would not be weak.

Although these people might not necessarily strike to help the Yao Clan, if the Soul Clan threatened their lives, they would certainly not stand idly by!

In this way, if the Soul Clan chose to destroy their Yao Clan during the Medicine Ceremony, the difficulty would undoubtedly increase significantly.

Therefore, Yao Wanhuo did not quite believe the content of this letter.

Hearing this, Yao Dan did not reach a conclusion immediately but closed his eyes to think.

Before the Ling and Shi Clans were destroyed, if Yao Dan had received such a letter of unknown origin, he would certainly have scoffed at it.

But with the Ling and Shi Clans destroyed one after another, Yao Dan knew very well that the Yao Clan would certainly be the next target.

For this reason, his nerves had always been tense, fearing that the Yao Clan would follow in the footsteps of the Ling and Shi Clans.

If that were the case, he really would not be able to face the Yao Emperor and the ancestors of the Yao Clan...

He did not dare to take it lightly, and even more so, he could not let the Yao Clan fall into an irredeemable situation.

Could it be that the Ancient Clan wanted to use this method to push all the suspicion onto the Soul Clan?

But this speculation had only just arisen before it was denied by Yao Dan.

The Ancient Clan had no need to do this, because if the Soul Clan did not attack during this Medicine Ceremony, this letter would be completely useless...

Yao Dan seemed to have thought of something and suddenly asked: "Are there any people from the Ancient Clan and the Soul Clan coming to participate in the Medicine Ceremony?"
