346 The End of the Storm In Jade City
It seemed like a simple statement, but the invisible domineering aura made the Xiao clan’s people tremble. “You actually dare to call the ancestor by his name…”
Under Ye Xuan’s gaze, the man’s voice grew softer and softer.
The crowd subconsciously made way for them, so much so that they didn’t even react until Ye Xuan and the others had walked far away.
“Should we chase after them?”
“Why are you chasing after them? Don’t tell me you’re going to find trouble with them.”
“But…”
Seeing how brazen Ye Xuan and Xiao Mingyan were, the Xiao clan suddenly had a bad feeling.
Now that Xiao Yi had not been found yet, the Xiao clan did not want to cause any more trouble. If they were like this, then the other clans would all the more not dare to act rashly.
Most of the people were just here to watch the show, and they didn’t have any deep grudges against Xiao Mingyan, so it wouldn’t be worth it to suddenly attack.
Everyone carefully approached the inside. When they saw the scene clearly, they fell silent again.
The entire place was deathly silent as if someone had grabbed their fate by the throat. They had long guessed in their hearts, but after seeing it with their own eyes, they still couldn’t believe it.
The surrounding trees had all been uprooted, leaving only a few empty holes. There was scorched earth everywhere, and there were traces of lightning. The wolves on the ground could imagine what kind of battle had happened here, but there was not even a place to stand.
This was not the most surprising thing. The most surprising thing was the person lying on the ground. His face was like charcoal, and his hair stood up. It was obvious that he had been struck by lightning. He could be said to be unrecognizable, but someone still recognized his identity.
“The Xiao clan’s ancestor!”
Everyone from the Xiao clan immediately turned pale and quickly ran over to check his breathing. Fortunately, he was still breathing.
If anything happened to Xiao Yi, the Xiao clan would be completely finished. The Xiao clan didn’t have time to think so much, so they quickly brought him back to treat his injuries.
As for the other clans, they couldn’t believe it. Xiao Yi’s strength was not much different from their own ancestors, and he was the top combat force in Jade City.
But what did they just see? Xiao Yi was actually defeated!
No wonder everyone looked like they had seen a ghost. Zhao Huaifeng subconsciously swallowed his saliva and said in a hoarse voice, “Don’t tell me it was Xiao Mingyan who did this? What is his current cultivation level? even the ancestor of the Xiao clan can’t do anything to him.”
“I don’t think so. Even if Xiao Mingyan had a fortuitous encounter, it is impossible for him to reach such a realm in such a short time. It should be someone else.”
“If it wasn’t Xiao Mingyan, then who was it?”
Everyone thought of Ye Xuan, who was by Xiao Mingyan’s side. His background was a mystery, and they only knew that he came from the capital. In the beginning, no one paid much attention to him, and after they couldn’t investigate him, they didn’t deliberately send people to the capital to investigate.
However, they didn’t expect that he would be a low-profile and modest person.
“That’s not very possible. He looks about the same age as Xiao Mingyan. How could he have such profound cultivation?”
“Then you don’t know. Some experts like to pretend to be weak. This person looks young, but he might be a few hundred years old.
“Xiao Mingyan is really lucky. He died first before he was revived. Being chosen by such a big shot and to be given such an opportunity, his future is really promising.”
“That’s right. We’re not so lucky. But the ones who regret it the most now are the Xiao clan.”
At first, some of the restless people in Jade City were not used to Xiao Mingyan’s talent and root bone and were hesitating about whether they should make a move. After all, with Xiao Mingyan’s current strength, he would definitely be a great threat if he stood on the opposite side.
After seeing Xiao Yi’s end, the flame in their hearts was completely extinguished. Even the top combat fighter of Jade City was like this, they would be nothing more than dead flies if they went against Xiao Mingyan.
Perhaps only two or more ancestors could subdue Xiao Mingyan, but Xiao Yi was doing it for his own family. If they wanted to ask the ancestors of other families to help, they would have to pay a different price for it.
With the departure of Ye Xuan and Xiao Mingyan, this matter gradually calmed down. At least, Xiao Mingyan wouldn’t return to Jade City for a while. No matter how powerful his cultivation was, he wouldn’t be a hindrance to the other clans.
In this farce, the Xiao clan was the most seriously injured. It could be said that their vitality was greatly damaged. Xiao Wuyou had become a cripple, Xiao Hong was unable to hold down the fort, and Xiao Yi was finally allowed to come out of the mountain, but in the end, he was seriously injured.
They had hoped that Xiao Yi could take charge of the situation, but now he had to recuperate because of his injuries and couldn’t come out in a short time, making the chaotic situation in the Xiao clan even worse.
“The Xiao clan is basically finished. Many of them want to separate from the family, and they all have the support of the elders and seniors in the family. Xiao Hong has been crippled by them.”
“I say that the Xiao clan is really unlucky. Their good cards are all smashed. Now that the clan is in chaos, they won’t be able to hold on for long.”
“That’s right. We don’t even need to do anything and they are already heading toward destruction. The affairs of the world are unpredictable. I really didn’t expect this.”
The Xiao clan, which had once firmly occupied the top position of the four great clans, had actually come to this sort of situation. This was something that no one had expected.
In a short period of time, they had witnessed the collapse of a large clan. Now, the clan had split up, and it could be said that all of them were doing things their own way.
There was no lack of covert action and influence from other clans, but the root cause was the Xiao clan.
Taking advantage of their internal strife, the other forces were splitting and devouring the Xiao clan’s resources. By the time the Xiao clan reacted, it was already too late for them to regret.
As for whether Xiao Mingyan could return or not, it was not within their scope of consideration. There was also the mysterious Ye Xuan beside him, who left a shadow in everyone’s hearts.
There were speculations going on in the outside world. They could only hope that this man, who had single-handedly stirred up a storm in Jade City, would never come again. Otherwise, they did not know which clan would be the unlucky one next time.
