It was completely quiet inside the main hall. Only the sound of everyone’s hurried breathing could be heard.
Rat and Old Bastard’s legs had become somewhat unstable, and they were trembling with their heads lowered. Behind them, the descendants holding spirit fruits in their hands were unable to keep their composure and their hands were shuddering continuously.
When the little girl standing beside Madam saw that, she suddenly burst out laughing. Madam, who was sitting on the main seat, gave her a glance, and the little girl immediately covered her mouth.
“You mortals dare to be so unbridled in front of me? This is a small lesson for you. If I didn’t have to consider the sixth ancestor’s face, your bodies and heads would’ve been separated by now, given your words.
“Can anyone in the Ground Clan actually come to make us surrender? Or would the sixth ancestor lower himself and come to deal with us personally?” the madam asked with a slow smile.
“Since madam has said so much, we will naturally not disturb you. I will narrate this matter in detail to the sixth ancestor and let him make the decision.”
After Rat said that, he retreated with his people outside the main hall.
The madam who was sitting on the main seat and the little girl watched everyone leave, then the little girl turned around and asked, “Lady mother, now the sixth ancestor has also dispatched people to speak with us. Before, it was the Deva Clan to talk. You didn’t agree to return, but wouldn’t it cause problems in the future?”
“What can happen? Xuan Ren, you don’t understand. You have been living in the middle city from the time you were born and do not know the rules of the clan. If mother was a direct descendant, then I would naturally be willing to return. But I am only a branch family descendant, so once I return, given my late stage sage flux expert cultivation, I can only be a subordinate.
“After returning with me, you will also have to become a subordinate of a direct descendant. Instead of listening to someone’s orders, it is better if we mother and daughter continue to live in the middle city where we can live freely.”
Madam pulled the little girl’s hand and patiently explained everything to her. When the young girl heard her words, a hint of understanding flashed in her eyes, and she smiled.
“No wonder then that when the people of Deva came, all of them gave a feeling of being arrogant. It’s better to not return, I don’t want to become someone’s subordinate.”
After the little girl said that, she changed the topic and asked, “Then why not affiliate ourselves with the sixth ancestor’s side? He is the son most pampered by god father lately. What’s more, he is also a branch family descendant and has a similar identity as us, so he will naturally be understanding toward us.”
“Hmph.” The madam’s expression turned cold after hearing the girl’s words, and she replied with a snort. “Previously, he was a branch family descendant, but now he has a respectable status and cultivation, so how is he identical to us? The four clans asked me to return to act as their subordinate, and similar thoughts exist in Chen Xiu’s mind. The best option is for us, mother and daughter, to continue residing here.”
The little girl Xuan Ren replied with a nod, but her eyes continued to move around as she thought of something unknown.
The spies hidden on the roof had heard the whole conversation between mother and daughter. It could be considered as intelligence, which they could tell the patriarch after returning. The spy’s then slowly crawled towards the next residence.
The four of them had barely reached when they heard the sound of violence. The next instant, a large group flew out of the main hall like an unstrung kite and fell on the ground. Dust rose into the air, and the spirit fruits scattered on the ground.
A Doro clansman wearing exquisite clothes walked out of the main hall with his thirteen eyes fixed on Rat’s group. He said with a sneer:
“A group of mortals dares to threaten me?” he said with a sneer. “This is my territory and it doesn’t belong to your clan. This time, I will let you live because of the sixth ancestor’s face. If this happens again, I will pinch you all to death. Now get lost!”
From the voice which was like a lion’s roar, a hint of blood flowed out of the corner of Rat’s lips. He stood up with difficulty, turned around, and walked outside the house.
The Doro clansman standing outside the main hall returned inside, following which some voices could be heard in the house. The spies hidden on the roof carefully listened to them. The voices were saying that they did not want to return to become someone’s subordinates and were talking about their free and unfettered days.
The four men on the roof looked at each other with the same thought in their mind, Good god, another rebellious branch family descendant.
They then crawled to the next house, waiting for Rat and the others to pay a visit to it.
At the moment though, Rat and the others were standing outside the next house talking instead of entering. After being driven away continuously, Rat’s enthusiasm had dimmed slightly. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at the residence of Rahu clansman with a hint of anger in his eyes.
The first house they went to, the Deva clansman had only used a little pressure to punish them. The Doro clansman, however, had erupted with middle stage sage flux expert strength to beat them up.
“What should we do now? We have already been driven back by two guys. Only three people still remain.” Old Bastard stretched his limbs and turned to look at the dejected and depressed Ground clansmen behind him. “You see, the attack just now only injured us, but the spirit fruits were destroyed. Can we pay a visit to the remaining three guys empty-handed?”
“Naturally we will go. Lord said that he wanted to use peaceful methods before using force. Since he asked that of us, then regardless of what happens, we must go and talk once. Otherwise, it will be detrimental to our work.”
“Then let’s go.”
Old Bastard sighed and went after Rat toward the next house. Soon, everyone flew out once more like unstrung kits and fell down in the main street after passing above the heads of spies. A half god presence dissipated inside the house then.
After a long time, Rat and the others slowly crawled up from the ground and advanced toward the next house. Without waiting for them to enter, a half god’s presence erupted within it, passed through the door, and attacked everyone. They were all sent a few meters back. Each and every one of them lay on the ground with blood all over them.
Rat endured the body-splitting pain and slowly crawled up. Old Bastard also stood up, but the others continued to lie on the ground after losing consciousness. The two men inspected them and after confirming that they had only lost consciousness, they talked about going to the final house.
After entering the house, four subordinates grabbed the legs and hands of Rat and Old Bastard, whose bodies were covered in blood, and threw them into the street before closing the gate. When the spies lying on the roofs saw the condition of the two men, they sucked in a deep breath. The last household was much more ruthless compared to the other people, and the two men came out resembling dwarfs.
Their bodies were compressed together with their bones in a complete mess. They weren’t breathing, and it looked like their death was close.
When the spies looked inside the house and saw the master of the household, they turned pale. The master of the last household was a direct descendant of Rahu Clan, so no wonder that he dared to be unbridled. However, tormenting the descendants of Ground Clan in their own territory did not sound like a good idea. When the sixth ancestor learned about it, he would probably fly into rage. After deciding that, the four slowly retreated.
They had just arrived and already obtained so much information. Furthermore, after the descendants of the Ground Clan were tormented by Rahu Clan’s descendant, the sixth ancestor would definitely be enraged, so if they did not report this straight away, the direct descendant would certainly die.
