"Oh? I didn't expect you, you old mudfish, to come too, along with the three of you old codgers," the Ninth Ancestor of the Yuan Clan said indifferently.
The newcomer was none other than the Fourth Ancestor, one of the Ten Great Ancestors of the True Dragon Clan, an extremely ancient being who had existed for countless eons. Following him were the Third Ancestor of the Heavenly Azure Clan, the Third Ancestor of the Golden-Winged Roc Clan, and the Third Ancestor of the Profound Sect. These four were all peak Quasi-Emperor level experts, the core leaders of their respective clans. They would normally not appear unless their clan was facing annihilation. However, now that the life and death of their clan's Quasi-Emperor level experts concerned them, they had no choice but to emerge. Quasi-Emperor level experts were the core foundation of their clans, and their safety was paramount.
"Did you four come here for these four people?" After saying this, the Ninth Ancestor of the Yuan Clan looked at the four Quasi-Emperor First-Order Ancestors in the distance, whose mouths were still bleeding.
“Yuan Shengyuan, your clan’s divine son killed our divine sons. They have come to demand an explanation. Logically speaking, there should be nothing wrong with that. Besides, they are all injured, while your clan’s divine son is unharmed. Why don’t we just let this matter go? What do you think?” said the Third Ancestor of the True Dragon Clan.
At this moment, he was also very reluctant to fight the Yuan Clan's Nine Ancestors. After all, the Golden Age had already begun, and they needed to preserve their strength and plan for the future. At their current level of cultivation, every time they made a move, their lifespan would be shortened. They were unwilling to make a move unless absolutely necessary.
"Let it go? Just now someone threatened to kill our clan's divine son and supreme elder, extremely arrogant, and even said that our Yuan clan went too far. The treasures of heaven and earth belong to the capable, and if you are weak and get killed, you can't blame others. But to bully the weak and bully our Yuan clan, do you think we can just let this go?" The Ninth Ancestor of the Yuan Clan said in a somewhat sarcastic tone.
"Then what do you want to do to let this matter go?" the third ancestor of the Golden-Winged Roc clan immediately asked.
"How about this, each of the four of them will receive three Emperor-level medicinal herbs, and we'll let this matter drop," the Ninth Ancestor of the Yuan Clan said arrogantly.
"Three Emperor-level medicinal herbs?" The four of them gasped upon hearing this. They knew that Emperor-level medicinal herbs were peerless elixirs that could extend the lifespan of Quasi-Emperors and Great Emperors. Not to mention that they didn't have them, even if they did, they would never take them out.
The three patriarchs of the Xuanmen Sect were also furious at this moment, saying: "Yuan Shengyuan, are you playing us for fools? Twelve imperial herbs, tell me, which family can produce them? Do you think they are cabbages in the market?"
"Me? I can produce that. What? You can't even produce a dozen or so Emperor-level herbs? How can you be considered ancestors? You might as well just die. I'm only chatting with you here because you seem sincere. What kind of ancestor is as poor as you? He tui!" The Ninth Ancestor of the Yuan Clan spat out a mouthful of saliva and said sarcastically.
"You! You! You've gone too far! I've tolerated you for too long!" At this moment, the Third Ancestor of the Tiancang Clan roared in fury.
At this moment, the three ancestors of the True Dragon Clan were also furious, but they quickly calmed down and stopped the enraged three ancestors of the Heavenly Azure Clan, saying, "How about this, the four of us will pool together one Emperor-level herb and thirty Quasi-Emperor-level herbs, what do you think?"
"Alright, it's settled then. Deliver the goods to the Yuan Clan in three days. If even one plant is missing, I'll kill you all." After saying this, the Ninth Ancestor of the Yuan Clan ignored them and waved his hand, creating a huge spatial rift, preparing to take the Yuan Clan members back to the Yuan Clan.
At this moment, the Divine Son of the Jun family looked at Yuan Zhexian and said, "Brother Yuan, I should also return now. I will visit the Yuan clan again in a while." Yuan Zhexian smiled and said, "Alright, I will personally receive Brother Jun then." Afterwards, he bowed slightly to the Supreme Elders of the Jun family and the Jade clan, and then followed the Ninth Ancestor of the Yuan clan into the space-time rift.
After the matter was settled, the Supreme Elders of the Jun and Yu clans exchanged a few pleasantries and left with their disciples, leaving behind a group of dumbfounded people.
At this moment, the third ancestor of the Golden-Winged Roc clan also said, "With the strength of the four of us, we should be able to keep this ninth ancestor of the Yuan clan here. Why should we agree to his compensation?"
The three ancestors of the True Dragon Clan then said, "Do you really think the four of us can hold back this Ninth Ancestor of the Yuan Clan? Don't forget that countless eons ago, he single-handedly forced the Lord of the Netherworld to almost reach the pinnacle of enlightenment. I ask you, who among you present could do that? Moreover, this Ninth Ancestor of the Yuan Clan is quite extraordinary. Unless absolutely necessary, do not make an enemy of him."
"Then are we just going to let the Yuan Clan's divine son kill our divine son in vain?" the three patriarchs of the Xuanmen sect also said.
"You all saw what the Yuan Clan's Supreme Elder saw. He was not even a Quasi-Emperor yet, but he could still contend with a Quasi-Emperor. Moreover, I heard that the Yuan Clan's Patriarch is also quite powerful. The Yuan Clan's Divine Son's talent is even more terrifying. The three outstanding talents of the Yuan Clan are truly terrifying."
"Is there any way to get rid of this Yuan Clan's divine son?" the third ancestor of the Golden-Winged Roc Clan continued.
"The Divine Source Secret Realm, which has been dormant for several epochs, is about to open. Our ancient prodigy has been sleeping within it for countless epochs, and now it is time for the Golden Age to awaken him. Moreover, the Imperial Prince of our True Dragon Clan is about to be born. Their talents are unparalleled throughout the ages, invincible among their peers. Let's see how the Divine Prince of the Yuan Clan will react when they are born. I believe that even if the Divine Prince of the Yuan Clan perishes in a battle among his peers, the Nine Ancestors of the Yuan Clan will have nothing to say."
“Now that you mention it, I’ve remembered it too. Our clan’s ancient freak is also slumbering in the Divine Source Secret Realm. When we return, I will also have our clan’s imperial son prepare for his birth.” The third ancestor of the Tiancang clan then said.
"That's right! The time when my clan's imperial son and the ancient freak are born will be the time when his Yuan clan's divine son falls."
At this time, the Ninth Ancestor of the Yuan Clan had already returned to the Yuan Clan with Yuan Zhexian and the others.
The ninth ancestor of the Yuan clan said to Yuan Zhexian, "Zhexian, come to the ancestral land." After saying that, he disappeared from the spot.
Yuan Zhexian then addressed the crowd, saying, "You all return to the Divine Palace first; I'm going to the ancestral land." He then bowed to Yuan Xun. With a flash of golden light, he vanished from the spot.
