Chapter 40 Wang Clan



Wang Clan

The main villains in the Southern Continent Arc, where Huo Long rose, were Duke Wang and his clan. They were subordinates of a Demonic Sect in the Central Continent.

The three major sects of the Southern continent were all righteous sects. And though they would constantly be at each other\'s throats, at threat of a demonic sect appearing in their homeland, they would drop all fights against each other to unite against the invaders.

The Demonic Sect was tired of openly trying to expand into the Southern Continent and being targeted by three sects of equal strength. So they hatched a plan by choosing various high-ranking groups and corrupting them, turning them into subordinates to support them when they decided to branch out openly.

The Duke Wang Clan was their target. They were large enough to be a supportive combat force but not big enough to alert the three sects.

And as the only group of power in the Southern Continent with the support of a Demonic sect with access to the Vein Swallowing Worm, Duke Wang was Xue Bai\'s answer.

"Duke Wang! WANG YICHEN, THAT SNAKE-EYED BASTARD!" Xue Feng yelled. He looked as if he was about to leap out of the courtyard and find the man to fight to the death.

"Father, wait!" Then, stopping his father before he did anything drastic, Xue Bai tried to explain the entire situation to them.

"So, what you\'re telling me is not to attack the man who ordered to have you to live as a cripple but still stay alongside him like good friends." Xue Feng asked angrily.

"No, you didn\'t let me finish. The reason I never knew that I was plotted against wasn\'t that I was oblivious, but instead, the Wang Clan and their backer got destroyed." Xue Bai continued.

"Which expert did they provoke that\'s strong enough to wipe them out?"

"Is it another sect from the Central Continent?"

"No, you two have already met the culprit." Xue Bai spoke, interrupting their barrage of questions.

"The strongest person we\'ve met was the Emperor, and even then, we could fight him to a standstill with our new strengths." Xue Feng retorted.

"He\'s not strong enough to do it currently, but he will soon enough." Xue Bai seeing his father calm down from his previous state decided to tease him and answer indirectly.

"To destroy a sect on the Central Continent, they would at least need a High Black Grade Martial Vein. There hasn\'t been one that high born on the Southern Continent since ancient times." Li Rou questioned as she recalled all of the people she had recently met.

Xue Feng was a little sharper and saw the smile on his son\'s face. Then, knowing that they were getting teased, he grabbed Xue Bai and started to shake an answer out of him.

Unable to escape his father\'s vice grip, Xue Bai eventually yielded and revealed the answer.

"It was the kid I was trying too hard to become friends with. Remember the Young Marquis Huo Long I brought to the Dukedom for extra training?"

Not believing Xue Bai, both of his parents raised their eyebrows.

"Bai\'er sure he\'s talented and has Low Black Grade Martial Veins, but that\'s still not enough to destroy a sect in the Central Continent."

"To start a sect in the Central Continent, one must at least be in the Spirit Purification Realm. And that\'s beyond Huo Long\'s potential."

But at their questions, Xue Bai stopped answering. He had revealed too much and even questioned whether it was the correct move.

The only way to persuade them was to tell them that Huo Long was also a child of the plane. But even then, it would most likely only make them question whether his memories were really true or not.

"It\'s fine if you don\'t believe me, but promise me this. Neither of you will interfere with Huo Long\'s life for the next three years. That means any secret protection you\'ve put around him, call them back. Also, if you have any plans to meet him again, cancel them. This is as important as my life. He needs to be left alone until the 6th month of 975!" Xue Bai spoke seriously for once.

That\'s when Huo Long would regain his talents. Interfering before that could cause a butterfly effect that could mess up everything Xue Bai planned for.

Though they were still doubting Xue Bai, his parents agreed. If anything paying attention to Huo Long wasn\'t worth it, so this promise would only save them resources.

"But Bai\'er, after knowing this, I must take some form of revenge. If I let them be destroyed by an outsider\'s hand while I sat and did nothing, I would never be able to live with myself." Xue Feng refused to let the idea of revenge leave his mind.

His son, his pride and joy, was almost forced to live a life of mediocrity and die a pitiful young death. If he couldn\'t avenge that, he wouldn\'t be able to call himself a father.

"I think I know what to do. However, it still has to do with me leaving the Duekdom before the Emperor, and the other Dukes come." Xue Bai answered.

After knowing that his crippling was the plan of somebody and not fate, Xue Bai was also angry, but he wasn\'t as hot-headed as his father.

"What do you plan to do?" Li Rou asked. For some reason, the look of her son concocting ideas looked creepy.

"You said the Emperor thinks that there is a Secret Realm opening in our Dukedom, right? I know where one is, and coincidentally the last thing I need is also there. You can lead all the Wang Clan members you can into the Secret Realm. And I\'ll make sure they never leave!" Xue Bai spoke proudly. Even the last part of his statement was filled with a premature form of killing intent.

Hearing his words, Xue Feng was all smiles, and the two began to discuss their plan.

Seeing the men ignore her, Li Rou was smart and picked up Xiao\'er and left the courtyard. Leaving the two to their own devices.

By the time the father and son duo finished their plan, it was night.

Noticing how fatigued his son looked, Xue Feng stood up and was about to leave. But before he left, he said.

"The Emperor and the two Dukes will arrive in around 4 or 5 days. So we will spend the next two making sure you have a complete grasp on your powers. Though you might know how the Secret Realm is laid out, you still need to be strong enough to protect yourself should something happen to you."

Though he was tired, Xue Bai still nodded at what his father said. Feeling all the power within him made him giddy with excitement. So waving goodbye to his dad, Xue Bai went into his room to go to sleep.

As soon as Xue Bai hit his mattress, he fell asleep. The last day was tiring for him. He had just woken up from a 4-day coma, reached the fifth stage of the Vein Transformation Realm, and learned that he was the target of a plot targeting his father.

For now, all he wanted to do was sleep and ignore all the troubles.

Meanwhile, While Xue Bai was deep in dreamland, Xue Feng and Li Rou were talking about what happened today in their own courtyard.

"So, do you think Bai\'er lied to us?" Li Rou asked.

"No, Bai\'er was never a good liar. I\'m sure that everything he said was true. And even without trusting Bai\'er, the fact that Wang Yichen and his clan are the subordinates of a Demonic Sect from the Central Continent is something I could believe. In the past decade or so, they\'ve lost their morals. Have you heard of what his son has been doing recently?" Xue Feng replied.

Li Rou had obviously heard about Wang Yichen\'s son, but she ignored it since he was just a kid. But still, some of the rumors made her fear what he would grow up into.

"Of course, I\'ve heard of them, but still, how many of them do you think are really true?"

"There\'s no smoke without fire, Rou\'er. Look at Bai\'er. Have you heard of one bad rumor about him? That Wang kid doesn\'t look at people as humans. Ever since he awakened his Martial Veins four years ago, something in him had changed. He killed a family because they dressed poorly, \'Hurting his Eyesight\' Rou\'er. Those were peasants as well. It wasn\'t their choice to dress in rags. And he even did it in the middle of the main city of his Dukedom."

Sighing, Li Rou knew her husband was right. That wasn\'t one of the rumors but something well-known. And it made her think. If he did that out in public, what was he doing behind closed doors?

"Enough of that demon. What do you plan to do with Bai\'er for the next two days?" Then, changing the subject, Li Rou asked.

"Nothing super intensive, just making him know where his limits lie. Testing his combat power. Simple things. I also want to see just how powerful someone with a Low Earth Grade Martial Vein is." Xue Feng was somewhat excited for tomorrow.

"If you are going to do just that, then it\'s fine but don\'t overwork him. If he goes into the Secret Realm injured, his life could be in danger." Li Rou reminded.

"Rou\'er, I love him just as much as you. I\'m no fool to send him off somewhere dangerous half-dead."

"Hmph, just so that you know."

The two continued to converse until midnight, when they realized how late it was. But instead of sleeping, the two just began to cultivate.

Since they were in the Domain Lord Realm, they could go many days without sleeping, and meditation at their Realm almost negated their need for sleep. So nighttime for them was spent cultivating.
