Chapter 1978: Slander?
Just as the Mandate Emperor and Ancestor Shard appeared as if they could no longer wait to battle, a dark green-robed figure appeared between them.
"Stop!"
It was a middle-aged woman wearing the robe of the Jade Lotus Valley.
"Ancestor Ambercrown, do you intend to follow in his footsteps?"
The Mandate Emperor coldly spoke, his vexation visible on his face. He was highly irritated for a long time now. One powerful young man was causing trouble again and again in this competition, but the difference between their strengths would have it so that he could only stay his hand.
However, now other people were also looking down on him, thinking that he wouldn't do anything to them. That kind of thinking even had him snapping, wanting to show if he truly dared or not.
"My Jade Lotus Valley will stand along with the Emperor Sword Sect."
However, Ancestor Ambercrown of the Jade Lotus Valley didn't seem to be intimidated and declared, causing the Mandate Emperor to narrow his eyes more.Dive into Stories, Embrace Enchantment: N♡vεlB¡n.
What reason did the Jade Lotus Valley have to follow them in this madness?
"Ahaha!"
Ancestor Shard laughed out loud as he threw his head above, "Today, we're capturing Fairy Myria. Let's see who has the guts to stop us."
As he spoke, he grabbed the hilt of his golden sword again.
"Wait a minute!"
However, a random shout from a person stopped him. Eyes fuming with displeasure, Ancestor Shard turned to look at the source and saw that the person who shouted was seated in the lower stratum, not even worth mentioning, but then, he suddenly noticed the identity of that person, becoming inwardly shocked.
"I can attest that the Shard Family plotted a devious scheme and wiped out my family's bloodline."
It was none other than Alexi Ethren.
"Brat, what nonsense are you spouting? Do you want to die?"
Ancestor Shard took out his sword and pointed at Alexi Ethren, his eyes gleaming with sinister intent.
However, Alexi Ethren didn't seem to be intimidated.
"Who are you exactly?"
The Mandate Emperor asked. It didn't take him much to see that Alexi Ethren wasn't just an Ethren of the Alstreim Family Territory's Ethren Empire. Otherwise, his story wouldn't make sense.
"Silence!"
Ivy Aries's gaze turned cold.
"You caused our Jade Lotus Valley to fall into a web of lies and deceit. If you want to support your lover, go ahead and do it. However, don't drag the Jade Lotus Valley into this, you deceitful woman."
"Wha-"
Ancestor Ambercrown became tongue-tied, her expression appearing confused and nervous. Ancestor Shard's expression also changed. He moved his hand when he suddenly felt the Mandate Emperor locking onto him, causing him to turn stiff.
Although he was powerful, he knew he couldn't afford to display a defenseless back against the Mandate Emperor.
"Little Ivy, are you telling the truth?"
Abruptly, two other Ancestors appeared behind Ivy Aries at this moment, each appearing older than the other. However, the Valley Master had also come.
Ivy Aries's eyes trembled as hesitation appeared to be prevalent. However, she took a deep breath before releasing it all.
"I can swear a Blood Soul Contract if that's what it takes for you all to believe. The Shard Family killed my ancestor Aries's husband and all your husband's and sons as well."
"What!? That's slander!"
Ancestor Shard lashed out as he waved his hand. However, the people behind Ivy Aries appeared dumbstruck before they hurriedly all sent a soul transmission to her. Even the ones in the seating area had their eyes turned red as they asked Ivy Aries through soul transmission, wanting to receive her admission of the events.
However, Ivy Aries shook her head as though she was not completely sure about the details the Emperor of Death had given her. However, she trusted her ancestor Aries's words that were once dismissed as ravings.
"It's fine if you all don't believe me. For this, even if I have to leave the Jade Lotus Valley, I'm willing. I will get revenge for my aggrieved ancestor and all the maidens who suffered under the Shard Family's shrewd actions. I can only apologize to those who have a good or colluding relationship with the Shard Family as the Jade Lotus Valley no longer welcomes you."
A minority of the maidens in the Jade Lotus Valley's seating area expression changed. However, they didn't dare express their thoughts when they looked around, witnessing the hateful gaze of their senior sisters, Elders, and Grand Elders.
Even the people became stunned to confusion as they witnessed this scene.
What's going on?
Is this an internal rebellion? Dissolution?
The Valley Master and the two other Ancestors of the Jade Lotus Valley stared at the determined Ivy Aries. They had never seen her this determined as she was an easygoing and carefree person. For her to do something like this, they couldn't understand, but they vaguely understood that this could've happened right after Yin Lotus Fairy visited.
Connecting the Yin Lotus Fairy through the Emperor of Death with Alexi Ethren, who was also said to be his friend, they felt it made some sense.
Suddenly, the Valley Master turned to look at Ancestor Ambercrown, who was still tongue-tied about this matter.
"Ancestor Ambercrown, you didn't remain chaste?"
Ancestor Ambercrown's body shook unwittingly, and looking at her reaction, everyone else's expressions changed!
