Dawn of the next day. In the vicinity of the current location of the Templar Clan, many spectators were hiding in the sidelines as they waited patiently for the arrival of Endless River. They officially declared yesterday that they would attack the clan right at this moment and everyone was invited to behold it.

The river said that this would be the first step towards freedom and all, thus they wanted the masses\' support.

So, the people were filled with curiosity. How would the river get this \'freedom\' they so called? If they were brave enough to declare a war with the Templar Clan, it just meant that they had enough resources for this and had prepared for this for a long time.

Furthermore, these people had grown interest in this freedom. After all, who would exactly decline power? If the Endless River were to be successful in their goal, then the universal chains binding everyone would break and everyone would have the chance to seek for the true peak of gods, the zenith.

The sun was already little by little rising at the east but it was still silent and peaceful. However, they knew that the Endless River would come. Because if they don\'t, then everything would be for naught. This was their only chance to get the people\'s support for their objective. Not just everyone would be daring enough like them to offend the celestial family and raise a rebellion.

"Buzz!" After a few minutes, a fluctuation happened between a void. It was just mild, yet everyone had felt because of the silence. Then, the fluctuation turned into a big hole that cracked the void, revealing its dimension.

Then, three figures appeared of out it. All of them were women who were wearing a uniformal robe of green. One look and you could already assume that they were like goddesses who descended from the heaven.

They weren\'t just beautiful, their cultivation was also unfathomable that only a very few could see through them among the crowd.

Their robes swayed with the wind, along with their long hairs.

"My god..." An spectator gasped in surprise, "Are they from the Endless River? They are so beautiful..."

"I can confirm that they are, indeed, from the river." An ancient answered the question, "They are the strongest ancestors the river took pride of. They also have the highest status there, with the river on their mercy."

"…so they are already old?" The man was disappointed and asked.

"Of course. They served Riverwood True God in the past and had been her vanguard. So, those three were very ancient." The ancient laughed, "Not to mention being ancient, they also have an unfathomable power right now that even I couldn\'t see through."

When the three women from the river appeared out of the void, they could feel that everyone\'s focus was on them. They stood there without doing anything yet. As the place was a huge plateau, they could see everything that might happen.

A short silence ensued the place before a voice came around, "Ancestors of the Endless River, looks like you have grown tired and bored in your seclusion and decided to run amok."

Then, Luminous together with Luminate appeared out of nowhere. They looked very dignified as they slowly descended to level themselves to the ancestors.

"It\'s funny." Gli couldn\'t help but laugh and sneered, "We came here in person yet the clan had only used some kids to receive us."

"Receive you?" Luminous snorted, "I\'m sorry, but the clan isn\'t receiving and isn\'t planning to receive traitors like you."

"You got a foul mouth, young man." Fli wasn\'t pleased, "This is a matter between the grown ups, so you should just stay at home and wait for your clan to be history."

Those in the sidelines gasped in horror when they heard this. The river had just confirmed that they were planning not just to oust the clan, but to uproot them.

The Endless River was really pushing it to their limit.

"Our clan wouldn\'t be history, I\'m sorry." Luminate was the one who spoke, "So before you regret rebelling, please go back and reflect yourselves. It isn\'t too late yet."

Luminate really wanted them to back off. After all, once they stepped that very line, they wouldn\'t be able to come back and all they could do was just regret.

"We have steeled our resolve for this." Fli answered, "We demand freedom, yet the celestial family isn\'t giving it to us. So, we have no choice but to do this. We are doing this for everyone!"

"This freedom you are seeking for is nonexistent." Out of nowhere, Jin Rou appeared and joined the conversation, "This is a universal law that everyone has to follow, not just you all."

"And who are you?" Fli didn\'t recognize Jin Rou at all and said, "I don\'t remember the clan having a member like you."

"I\'m just a passerby, not worthy to mention." Jin Rou chuckled.

"Just a passerby yet you dared to join in this mess?" Gli was totally enraged, "You sure are seeking your death earlier."

"No, it\'s you guys seeking for your deaths at a sooner time." Jin Rou shook his head, "Anyway, the chance has been wasted and you three have no longer choice but to go on. There is no turning back now."

Jin Rou had given them a single chance to back off and he would lighten their punishment. However, the Endless River didn\'t listen and chose to seek this path.

There was nothing Jin Rou could do but do his job.

The three ancestors the confused what Jin Rou was trying to say.

Then, Jin Rou paused for a moment and looked at the three ancestors with a deep killing intent, "I will be your opponent. If you three can defeat me, then you really have the right to pick a fight against the celestial family and earn your freedom. However, if you can\'t defeat me, then death is just your only choice."
