Chapter 963: Covering the Sky with an Enormous Net

North Thearch Region, North Thearch City, Wu Castle!

The Wu Castle was very huge, and it occupied a tenth of the North Thearch City’s area. There were also countless castles in the city. If an ordinary person was to head in, they would definitely lose their way because even a Soul Travel Realm martial artist would need a full day to explore the area.

Inside the largest castle of the Wu Castle[1] was the North Battle Hall. It was currently filled with experts, and almost all the Wu Clan’s elders had arrived. They stood on the left and right sides respectively. There were at least more than a thousand because the end of the lines could not be seen in a single glance.

One would need to possess at least the strength of Four-Star in order to be able to become a Wu Clan’s elder. Regardless of what reason, it was sufficient to see how strong the Wu Clan was with just the number of elders in the North Battle Hall. The group of people here had yet to include those grand elders and consecrators who wouldn’t meddle into any affairs.

A middle-aged male wearing a yellow gown was sitting on a purple-gold throne at the forefront of the North Battle Hall. That distinctive face of his did not show any expression, and his gaze was extremely dull. He did not speak a word. However, such just his aura was enough to cause the elders below him to tremble in silence. This group of elders had a great understanding of the temper of this yellow-gowned middle-aged man. The way he was acting currently was, in fact, showing that his rage had reached its limit.

Only the Wu Clan’s Patriarch and Clan Head could sit on the purple-gold throne in the North Battle Hall. The Patriarch wouldn’t meddle with any affairs. Therefore, this person was clearly the Wu Clan’s Clan Head, the North King.

What caused the North King to be so angry was because of the news and a letter!

A small city on the southern side of North Snow Region had just been besieged by someone. The city lord residence had been destroyed, and a city lord from Wu Clan as well as close to a thousand men had been killed. The letter was sent by the person who besieged the city. A paragraph of words was written on it, and the meaning behind it was very clear. They had to hand over Su Ruoxue in ten days. Otherwise, Hong Po and Wu Ying’er’s heads would be sent to the North King very soon. He would also cleanse the Wu Clan’s four regions with blood.

Hong Po was the eldest young master of the Hong Clan which was a major clan in the North Snow Region. He was also the North King’s son-in-law while Wu Ying’er was North King’s eldest daughter. He wished to send the heads of these two individuals to the North King? And also want to cleanse the North Thearch’s four regions with blood?

Since when had the North King and Wu Clan had to suffer such humiliation and threat? Who was the North King? He was a person who stood at the summit of the continent and was one of the dozens of people who possessed the most strength and authority. Therefore, one could well imagine what the North King’s mood was like right now.

“Who is Su Ruoxue?”

After a long while, the North King finally spoke. His voice was still extremely tranquil, but the more tranquil he was, the more restless the elders beneath him were. He was like the calm before the storm. No one knew when the North King would explode.

A group of elders stared at each other in dismay. In the past, only Ji Tingyu knew about Su Ruoxue’s affairs, and she didn’t tell anyone about it. Ji Tingyu got Wu Ni to pass down a gag order after she had disappeared from the Quiet Peace Temple. Therefore, this group of elders knew nothing, and before this, no one would care about such a nobody.

Therefore... no elders dare to come forth to answer even after the North King had asked.

“En?”

The North King waited for a moment and saw that no one dared to reply to his question. Cold rays flashed in his eyes as he suddenly smiled. “Very good. The enemy had already killed to our doorstep, and yet you all have no idea why the enemy was here for. Seems like all of you have been living an overly easy and comfortable life in the North Thearch City.”

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The smile from the North King had terrified all the elders. A group of them bowed in fright as they yelled anxiously, “We’re guilty!”

The Nine Thearchs Clans valued their rules very highly. Within the clan, the Clan Head and Patriarch were the emperor and the grand emperor. The moment the emperor turned angry, blood would be seen. A lot of people would be out of luck today if the North King was really provoked.

An elder’s eyes flickered before he walked out from the masses. He clasped his fist and spoke, “North King, Su Ruoxue isn’t the problem now. Rather, the Wu Clan’s prestige must not be undermined. Even if Su Ruoxue was in our hands, we must never agree to his request, besides we have no idea who Su Ruoxue is! Jiang Yi said that he wants all of our cities to raise a white flag in five days time to indicate that we have agreed to the exchange. This is something we must never agree to! The moment we raise the white flags, Wu Clan’s prestige would hit rock bottom.

“If he wants all the city to raise the white flag, it means that he would certainly appear in the vicinity of the cities in five days. Therefore, I feel... we should immediately assemble experts, and every city would need to have at least a Four-Star expert overseeing it. Once Jiang Yi appears, we will fluctuate the spatial zone, rendering him incapable of using the Heaven Evasion. So long as we drag for a moment, our people would be able to rush over. By then, he would definitely be dead.”

The rest of the elders agreed with him the moment this elder spoke out.

“That’s right. What Elder Luo Shan said is absolutely correct!”

“We can mobilize all the clan’s experts and send them to oversee the cities separately. So long as they are able to hold Jiang Yi up for just ten minutes, our men would be able to teleport over and kill him immediately!”

“He thinks that so-called Su Ruoxue is in our hands. He would definitely not dare to injure Hong Po and First Young Lady. As long as we surround him, we would be able to kill him and save First Young Lady and Hong Po.”

“We have been unable to detect First Young Lady and Hong Po’s soul spirit aura presence. Most likely, they are trapped inside a spatial artifact which belongs to Jiang Yi. As long as we kill Jiang Yi immediately, we will be able to safeguard First Young Lady and Hong Po’s safety.”

“...”

When the North King heard all the noises produced by the elders below him, it felt like there were ten thousand ducks quacking. He looked towards the group of elders who were fervently raising their opinions, causing him to have this indescribable trace of chill in his heart. This group of people had basically paid no attention to his daughter’s life. They only cared about the Wu Clan’s reputation.

“Enough!”

He roared in rage. Everyone below him immediately turned dead silence. His cold eyes looked around before he said, “Relay the orders. Assemble all Four-Star experts, and they are to defend all the cities. If Jiang Yi happens to appear, they have to shake up the spatial zone even if it means death. I will grant great merit to whoever is able to stall him! As for the deployment details, you all are to arrange it. Nothing must go wrong this time. You have to kill Jiang Yi.”

After the North King finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards the corridor at the side. His face was filled with stillness. He knew that the moment he passed this order down, Wu Ying’er and Hong Po would most likely not made it. However, he was not only a father; he was also the Clan Head of the Wu Clan. The clan’s interest would always be greater than everything and was greater than... his daughter and son-in-law’s lives.

The group of elders immediately got excited once the North King passed on the orders. Since Jiang Yi had made such request, it meant that he wasn’t invulnerable. Five days later, if he wished to check if the cities had raised the white flag, he would need to get near the cities. It meant that they had the chance to get into positions and make use of this chance to eliminate Jiang Yi.

The moment the orders were passed on, the Wu Clan’s four regions turned lively once again. The teleportation arrays were flickering non-stop. There were a lot of cities in the four regions; each region would have at least hundreds of thousands of cities. After adding all the cities in the four regions, there were close to two million cities.

In other words, they would need two millions Four-Star experts to oversee the cities.

Clearly, it was insufficient to rely just on the Wu Clan’s own experts. There were a lot of Four-Star and above experts in the Wu Clan, but they would at most have a few tens of thousands of them after adding them up altogether. Fortunately, there were a lot of clans which were vassals to the Wu Clan in the four regions. Most importantly, they weren’t required to kill Jiang Yi, but to stall him. Therefore, a lot of those middle-stage and high-stage Heaven Monarchs who cultivated spatial dao patterns were also be mobilized.

Despite so, the Wu Clan elders realized they were still lacking people after adding them up. Ultimately, they thought of an idea.

Borrowing people!

They headed over to the Ye Clan, the Xuan Clan, and the Yi Clan to borrow people! They borrowed Four-Star experts and those experts who cultivated spatial dao patterns.

The Ye Clan and Xuan Clan were very straightforward. In just a day, they had assembled tens of thousands of experts and brought them over. However, the Yi Clan had rejected them. Their reason was that the Buddha Emperor had gone into seclusion, and the elders did not have the qualifications to mobilize so many people.

Yi Clan rarely participated in the continent’s dispute, and Wu Clan had no other choice as well. They had almost enough people after the Ye and Xuan Clans had teleported their men over. The Wu Clan’s elders were insanely busy for this period of time as they deployed the people out for days and nights without rest. Four days later, they finally arranged an expert to oversee every city, and a lot of elders had also brought their team along and headed over personally.

There were ten Demigod Realm experts ready to be deployed in the North Thearch City so long as there was news being sent over. They are able to be teleported over at the fastest speed to kill Jiang Yi at any point of time! The Wu Clan had scattered an enormous net that covered the entire sky in the four regions and was just waiting for Jiang Yi—this fish—to enter it on its own accord tomorrow.
