Realms In The Firmament

Xuan Bing didn’t have a good temper. If not for Song Jue, she might just go kill all the people in Song Clan at once.

However, she had to consider Song Jue’s situation. She definitely wanted to kill those men, however, it was better to let Ye Xiao make the decision.

Ye Xiao was serious. He looked at Xuan Bing for a while and then smiled. He said, ”You truly know me quite well. You know nearly everything about me.”

Xuan Bing twisted her lips. [Pah! Idiot! Of course I do! I can recognize you from the ash of your bones! Is there anybody who knows you better than I do in the world? From inside to outside, nobody knows you better than I do!]

She didn’t know what Ye Xiao was thinking. He thought that Bing Xinyue and Wenren Chuchu had told Xuan Bing so much about himself. In fact, Xuan Bing knew so him so well. She knew him the best in the world!

She was the only one who knew him so well!

”Fine. I will solve this.” Ye Xiao nodded.

”Good. However, these men have to die! No matter what your plan is! No negotiation!” Xuan Bing turned around while looking at those who were on their knees. There was a strong killing intent in her eyes!

”Certainly. I won’t let go get away from this.” Ye Xiao nodded.

He was bearing a full chest of anger. [A bunch of guys like that, weak and soft, actually dares to tyrannize this place?]

[Nobody dares to challenge them? That’s annoying!]

[Song Jue’s nephew was bullied! This is unacceptable.]

[If not because I have certain connection to Misty Cloud Palace, Xuan Bing would definitely wipe out the entire Song Clan for what they just did to her. Even if Xuan Bing was generous and merciful, Misty Cloud Palace wouldn’t allow such a thing to happen. This area is under the three palaces’ control. No one, not even the local power, can mess with their elder! Song Clan should have been wiped out!]

[Song Clan is unlucky but also lucky at the same time!]

…

”My friend, you are Song Xuan. Is that correct?” Ye Xiao looked at Song Xuan, who was walking fast over to Ye Xiao, smiling.

”Yes, I am…” Song Xuan didn’t want to have any chitchat. He seemed nervous. ”You guys have made a big mistake. Just go now. When our superior cultivators come from the house, you won’t be able to leave. You must leave Oracle District as fast as you can. Go. People in this place have natural fear for the outside world. As long as you can go out this area, you get the chance to survive.”

He then sighed. He was surprised and helpless.

He thought that the whole thing was just a prank on himself. He could only endure the insult and everything would be in peace again. However, people died. It was unexpected for him. Song Fei had made troubles for him for many times. He didn’t want his father and uncles get into trouble too, so he had been enduring it all the time.

However, he never thought Song Fei got himself into such a sticky situation, even though he just wanted to insult Song Xuan at the first place.

The real problem in Song Fei’s heart was…

He wondered what the three innocent people should do to get away from this trouble?

He asked them to leave as soon as possible to get out of Oracle District, because it was the only way he had to keep them safe!

For native people in this district, the world outside was full of uncertainness. As long as the three of them could get to the outside world, they could survive this!

The world was too big for the Song Clan. They wouldn’t find them out there. That would keep them safe.

However, if they didn’t leave, in his opinion, Song Clan, his own clan, would never let them leave safely.

Even though the three were powerful cultivators, in Song Xuan’s mind, he didn’t believe they could defeat the entire Song Clan, because Song Clan was the most powerful house in Oracle District. He had confidence in his clan’s power. He didn’t believe the three outsiders could win the fight!

He truly didn’t want anything bad to happen on these three innocent people, who only got involved in this situation because of him!

”Thank you for being thoughtful. But we won’t leave.” Ye Xiao warmly smiled. ”We will wait till your people come. We can’t just let this end like this.”

He smiled. ”We need an explanation, for us and for others.”

Song Xuan was shocked. He couldn’t say a word.

[You have killed three guards and you made the chief’s son kneel on the blood. It is a huge humiliation to them already. What explanation do you want?]

Ye Xiao half closed his eyes and tapped on Song Xuan’s shoulder. ”Relax. It’s fine.”

Of course it was fine. What wrong could it be!

Nothing wrong could happen on the three of them.

In Oracle District, Han Bingxue alone could kill all and conquer all let alone Xuan Bing!

However, Ye Xiao didn’t want to expose himself.

He wouldn’t step out unless Song Jue showed up.

He was sure Song Jue was having quite a tough time since he was back to his clan.

He reckoned he should take use of what happened and the power of Xuan Bing and Han Bingxue to make some changes in Song Clan.

[This may be a good beginning at some point.]

Ye Xiao thought.

…

Song Clan.

The chief of Song Clan, Song Wuyang, had been having a busy time these days. It had been over one year since they had collected something truly valuable. If they couldn’t get enough valuable medicine materials, they couldn’t exchange for enough cultivation materials.

Tens of thousands men in the clan all went out for medicines. However, none of them collected anything valuable. Without the cultivation materials they needed, the clan would end up collapsed. Song Clan would only have a gradual downfall.

The materials were in the three palaces’ hands. The great palaces were some of the most powerful forces in the realm. They got all the resources Song Clan needed. The only way Song Clan could get what they wanted was to give the three palaces a certain amount of valuable medicines in exchange. Otherwise, the three palaces wouldn’t just give them the cultivation resources. That’s for sure.

Song Clan had thousands of miles of land in Oracle District. It was a big clan. They had collected countless materials from their mountains in the past, however, day after day, the medicines were decreasing. They were falling.

They thought the medicine materials were inexhaustible, but they were wrong. There was no such thing. After thousands of years of extraction, Song Clan’s mountains had been losing value.

They used to collect lots of spiritual medicines just by wandering around the mountains.

However, they had to particularly go to the cliff or deep into the forests to find what they wanted. Most of the land couldn’t provide what they needed anymore.

That truly drove Song Wuyang, the chief of Song Clan, crazy.
