Chapter 615: Seeking Fortune Amidst Danger

Xuan Yin chuckled softly. "Do you really think Young Master Ye is just an ordinary person?"

The elder appeared puzzled.

Xuan Yin softly added, "Young Master Ye is anything but ordinary."

"More remarkable than the Descendants of the Gods?"

"The fact that the entire Wang Clan is after him speaks volumes."

The elder remarked solemnly, "Clan Leader, you seem to hold this Young Master Ye in high regard."

Turning to the elder, Xuan Yin\'s smile was enigmatic as he said, "Elder Tie, do you really think that I\'ve taken an interest in him?"

The elder, Elder Tie, seemed hesitant to answer directly as he said, "This Young Master Ye is undeniably handsome."

Xuan Yin laughed. "The way you put it, it almost sounds like that\'s the case. I guess Young Master Ye is both handsome and powerful..."

Elder Tie’s heart tightened at her words.

However, Xuan Yin changed the subject. "Elder Tie, do you know why I answered your questions earlier?

"It\'s all because you were concerned for Martial Clan. However, your inquiries seem to be about my personal matters now."

Elder Tie’s expression shifted, and he bowed deeply. "I\'ve overstepped, Clan Leader. Please forgive me."

Xuan Yin waved her hand dismissively.

Elder Tie dared not linger and departed.

Turning her gaze to the sky, Xuan Yin revealed an intrigued smile. "Descendants of the Gods..."

...

Outside the Martial Clan...

As soon as the Wang Clan left the Martial Clan’s territory, one of the Wang Clan elders spoke with indignation, "This is outrageous! The Martial Clan actually dares to disregard our Wang Clan?! If we were outside, I would annihilate them all!"

The faces of the other Wang Clan elders darkened considerably. Never had the Wang Clan been so blatantly disregarded.

However, the Grand Elder remained calm as he pointed out. "But we\'re not outside."

Just then, Wang Zong declared, "Let me test the power of this seal."

He gestured at everyone to step back and looked up. Moments later, a powerful surge of energy surged from within him.

Boom!

The nearby spacetime trembled violently, and a terrifying force descended from above, sealing Wang Zong’s cultivation.

The expressions of the Wang Clan\'s elites turned grim.

Wang Zong’s face darkened as well, and his hands quivered ever so slightly. The power of the seal was far greater than he had anticipated. He could withstand it for a moment, but the strain on him was so immense that it was unsustainable to do so. After a moment of silence, he said, "Apart from the Martial Clan, are there other powers in the Wu Continent?"

The Grand Elder replied, "Yes, the Immortal Origin Clan is there, but their strength pales in comparison to the Martial Clan’s strength."

"Great," Wang Zong said, nodding. "Negotiation should be easier, as they are weaker than the Martial Clan. Let\'s head to the Immortal Origin Clan, then."

The Grand Elder nodded. "Very well."

And with that, the Wang Clan set off for the Immortal Origin Clan.

***

The Clan Leader of the Immortal Origin Clan, Sima Ru, had significant power in the Wu Continent as a Heavenly Sovereign.

Sima Ru was a bit taken aback to hear about the Wang Clan\'s arrival. He wasn\'t that knowledgeable about the Wang Clan, as the Immortal Origin Clan lacked the extensive external information network of the Martial Clan.

Sima Ru gazed calmly at the Wang Clan\'s elites standing inside the main hall of the Immortal Origin Clan.

The natives of the First God Paradise generally harbored unfavorable sentiments toward outsiders. In their eyes, outsiders were invaders.

The Wang Clan\'s elites didn\'t look pleased, as they had noticed that the people of the Immortal Origin Clan weren\'t particularly welcoming toward them. In fact, they could feel a hint of hostility.

Wang Zong turned to Sima Ru and bowed, "Clan Leader Sima, apologies for the intrusion."

Sima Ru nodded and calmly asked, "What brings you here?"

"Clan Leader Sima, we\'ve come to seek assistance from the Immortal Origin Clan."

"Assistance?"

"We\'ve come for a youth named Ye Guan. However, our cultivation is sealed here under the effects of the seal on this place, preventing us from locating him. Thus, we\'ve come to seek the Immortal Origin Clan\'s help. If the Immortal Origin Clan is willing to assist us, the Wang Clan will surely express its gratitude."

Sima Ru\'s eyes narrowed. "And what form would this gratitude take?"

"Five strands of Ancestral Origin."

Sima Ru stood up, looking at the Wang Clan. "You have strands of Ancestral Origin?"

An elder from the Wang Clan interjected, "Our Wang Clan are Descendants of the Gods.”

Sima Ru frowned. Descendants of the Gods? What\'s that supposed to mean? I\'ve never heard of something like that

At this point, Wang Zong opened his palm, and five strands of Ancestral Origin floated slowly toward Sima Ru.

Sima Ru\'s eyes lit up at the sight. Unlike the Martial Clan, the Immortal Origin Clan had yet to acquire any strands of Ancestral Origin, which meant that even a strand of Ancestral Origin was incredibly precious to them.

Wang Zong stared at Sima Ru and said, "If the Immortal Origin Clan helps us find Ye Guan, my clan will express its gratitude once more."

Sima Ru accepted the five strands of Ancestral Origin and glanced at Wang Zong. "This matter is of great importance. I need to discuss it with the elders."

Wang Zong’s brows furrowed slightly.

Some members of the Wang Clan were about to protest, but they were stopped by Wang Zong.

Without paying attention to the Wang Clan, Sima Ru turned around and walked into the inner hall.

An elder of the Wang Clan standing next to Wang Zong erupted in fury. "This is preposterous! Absolutely preposterous! It\'s like a tiger falling into a pit and being bullied by a dog. If we were outside..."

Wang Zong swiftly rebuked them, exclaiming, "Quiet!"

The elder fell silent, but his expression showed frustration.

Wang Zong shot him a cold glance and added, "Drop the arrogance. We\'re guests here; we\'re not in our territories. Let\'s focus on the bigger picture and avoid kicking up a fuss."

The Grand Elder nodded in agreement. "Our goal is to find Ye Guan, so let\'s try not to antagonize the locals here."

The other elders nodded as well, but they were seething with anger. Unfortunately, humility was indeed necessary here.

They endured, waiting for the tension to ease.

…

In the inner hall, Sima Ru had gathered all the strong members of the Immortal Origin Clan, and they were all intrigued upon hearing Sima Ru\'s words.

Ancestral Origin! With enough strands of Ancestral Origin, the Immortal Origin Clan\'s overall power would climb to the apex.

Moreover, it had been ages since any of them had made progress in their cultivation. They might finally be able to make a breakthrough with the help of Ancestral Origin.

"How many Ancestral Origins did they promise?" an elder asked.

"I have no idea," Sima Ru said, shaking his head. "They only mentioned they would give more; they did not specify the amount.”

The elder frowned in response.

Just then, a black-robed elder nearby suggested, "What if we take them ourselves?”

All eyes turned to him, intrigued by his proposition.

Taking the strands of Ancestral Origins by ourselves?

The suggestion left them speechless.

Sima Ru was taken aback, as he hadn\'t considered such an approach.

However, the proposal made by the black-robed elder did make sense.

"If they can easily offer five strands of Ancestral Origins, they must be formidable individuals. This..." an elder voiced his concern.

The black-robed elder rose to his feet, and his voice was cold as he exclaimed, "Exactly! The fact that they\'re formidable means they possess even more strands of Ancestral Origin. It\'s worth the risk. And it\'s not much of a risk at all. Outside, they\'re a threat, but their cultivation bases are sealed here, so why would we be afraid of them? As long as we stay within the First God Paradise, they pose no threat to us at all."

The room fell silent as everyone contemplated his words.

Excitement grew among some members of the Immortal Origin Clan at the prospect of robbing and killing for such a valuable treasure.

All eyes turned to Sima Ru as everyone patiently waited for his decision. Sima Ru deduced that the group of people outside had extraordinary origins. If they resorted to murdering them for their treasure, there would undoubtedly be consequences.

Just then, the black-robed elder spoke up again, "Clan Leader, we just have to stay here, and we won\'t have to worry about any outsiders. Let\'s just go for it!"

The other elders nodded in agreement, signaling their readiness.

Robbing others for their strands of Ancestral Origin... The thought of it alone was exhilarating. They\'ve handed us a feast on silver platters.

Sima Ru swept his gaze across everyone and declared, "We\'ll share both fortune and disaster. Let\'s do it."

Let\'s do it!

…

Meanwhile, Wang Zong and his companions remained patient. Some of the Wang Clan\'s members were growing restless, but nobody dared to speak out. They knew the importance of keeping sight of the bigger picture.

Wang Zong was composed. He was confident that the insignificant Immortal Origin Clan wouldn\'t be able to resist the allure of Ancestral Origin. To put it bluntly, the locals were just uncultured peasants, who\'d eagerly serve his Wang Clan in exchange for a few strands of Ancestral Origin. That was how Wang Zong viewed the Immortal Origin Clan.

Just then, Sima Ru emerged from the hall.

Wang Zong regarded him calmly.

Sima Ru\'s face broke out into a smile, but his words sent a chill through the crowd. "Kill them!”

The elites of the Immortal Origin Clan descended upon the Wang Clan.

The Wang Clan\'s elites were dumbfounded. What was happening?

A Wang Clan elder was enraged. "What are you doing?! My Wang Clan members are Descendants of the Gods! How dare you—Goodness... are you serious?"
