Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 2518: Protector Shan

At the same time, a white-robed, middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance stood beside a pool of water in a quiet courtyard of the Tian Yuan clan. He stared at a golden turtle that moved through the pool slowly in a daze.

The middle-aged man was one of the three late Infinite Primes of the Tian Yuan clan, protector Xue.

Protector Xue was a Seventh Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime. Although his cultivation was not the greatest out of the three, he received absolute respect in the Tian Yuan clan.

They were all late Infinite Primes, but protector Shui was different from protector Shan and protector Qi. He treated all the members of the Tian Yuan clan amiably. He was a Primordial realm expert that was very easy to get along with.

It was very difficult to sense the pressure of a Primordial realm expert from him, and he did not put on any airs either. He did not possess the arrogance of the others.

Not only that, but protector Xue had also contributed the most to the Tian Yuan clan out of all the Primordial realm experts who had joined.

As a result, protector Xue was deeply respected by the important members of the Tian Yuan clan.

“Protector Xue, the patriarch has sent orders for all Primordial realm protectors to go to the dicussion hall.” At this moment, an attendant’s voice rang out from outside the courtyard.

“Understood,” protector Xue said indifferently. He looked away from the golden turtle and focused in the direction of the hall. His gaze deepened.

“Jian Chen has only just returned, yet he has sent orders to gather all the Primordial realm experts. Although he’s the patriarch, the person that everyone actually listens to is Ming Dong. There’s probably no one who’s going to take him seriously as the patriarch. Can he keep the situation under control like this?” Protector Xue murmured. The light in his eyes flickered as he thought to himself, “I have joined the Tian Yuan clan after all, and I’ve become a protector. Since the patriarch is gathering everyone, it’s best if I go. A protector is still a protector in the end. A protector cannot defy the patriarch.”

“Young master, properly heal here. We’ll be very safe for now. They won’t be able to find us. I will definitely find a way to reconstruct your soul and awaken you,” protector Xue looked at the golden turtle in the pool and said firmly.

The golden turtle in the pool was only the size of a hand. Its eyes shone with a murky light as it moved around in the pool aimlessly.

Its golden turtle shell was covered by some wondrous inscriptions. They were extremely profound, and they seemed to resonate with the ways of the world.

It felt like traces of the ways had actually appeared on its golden turtle shell.

Protector Xue waved his hand, and a formation immediately rose up, enveloping the entire water pool. With a flash, he directly made his way towards the discussion hall.

Many Primordial realm experts gathered in the discussion hall one by one. Out of the eighteen recruited Infinite Primes, fifteen showed up.

The gathering of fifteen Primordial realm experts pressured the original members of the clan seated there. They all stood up and began to give up their seats willingly.

At the very front of the discussion hall, closest to the patriarch’s throne, there were three seats placed in a row. The three seats were prepared for the three late Infinite Primes of the clan.

In reality, the ordering of the seats had already been set in stone. All the late Infinite Primes had a seat that belonged to them because Ming Dong had held meeting like this many times in the past. They decided the ordering of the seats like that.

Protector Xue and protector Qi sat to the two sides, while the centre seat was for protector Shan.

But now, protector Shan’s seat had been taken up by someone else. It had been taken up by Hei Ya.

Protector Qi was an old man. He was short and skinny and basically a bag of bones. It was as if he did not have much time left in him. He seemed rather sinister.

He saw Hei Ya in protector Shan’s seat and was slightly surprised. His lips curled up rather sinisterly, but he said nothing. He directly sat down in his seat and closed his eyes to rest.

He directly ignored Jian Chen, who sat on the patriarch’s throne. He did not take him seriously. He only recognised three people in the Tian Yuan clan, and they were Ming Dong, Ming Xie, and Xu Ran.

He did not even take Xi Yu seriously despite her being the princess of the Xi Empire.

When protector Xue saw Hei Ya, his eyes narrowed as well. He glanced at Jian Chen on the throne deeply and could sense that the meeting this time probably would not be peaceful.

The other Primordial realm experts were also surprised when they saw where Hei Ya sat. They began to discuss with one another secretly.

At this moment, protector Shan arrived in the discussion hall. When he saw how someone unfamiliar had taken up his seat and that they were only a First Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime, he immediately became infuriated.

He advanced towards Hei Ya step by step. His burly body seemed like a mountain, possessing immeasurable weight. There would be a heavy thud with each step, causing the entire hall to shake.

“Who are you? Don’t you know who this seat belongs to?” Protector Shan looked down on everyone and stared at Hei Ya with a piercing gaze. His eyes were filled with cold killing intent.

Whether it be the original members of the clan or the other protectors, they all held their breaths. They wanted to see how Jian Chen would handle this matter.

“He’s Hei Ya. From today onwards, he sits there.”

Hei Ya said nothing. Instead, Jian Chen interjected from the throne. He sat there boldly as his voice was cold, possessing a sense of authority that could not be denied.

Protector Shan suddenly directed his gaze at Jian Chen. His eyes were extremely piercing and pressuring. However, in the next moment, he thought about how Jian Chen possessed the hell water he coveted and immediately changed his attitude.

“Whatever. For the sake of the hell water, I’ll endure it for now,” thought protector Shan. He forced a smile and clasped his fist towards Jian Chen amicably. “Since the patriarch has said that this seat belongs to Hei Ya, I’ll give this seat to Hei Ya in the future.” With that, protector Shan pulled out a chair from his Space Ring and sat down there like nothing had happened.

Jian Chen glanced past protector Shan with a piercing gaze. He was a little surprise. He originally thought protector Shan would lose his temper on the spot, but he never expected him to actually hold it back. This was rather unexpected.
