Chapter 131 - Appealing to the Great Ancestor
It had not been long since Lu Xuan’s annihilation of the Soul-snatcher Sect, and the commotion he’d caused had just begun to subside.
Then, yet another piece of news exploded among the cultivators and shocked the entire world of cultivators like a stun grenade.
The Holy Dragon Corporation, which had been lying low in the dark like a great crocodile waiting to strike, finally made their move, extending their influence into the Min Province.
However, the operation turned out to be a total loss, and they lost more than just a National Guardian.
A direct descendant of the Song Clan, Song Shijie, was crippled as well. Everyone knew that while Song Shijie had not been in the country until a short while ago, he was nonetheless a very important figure to the Song Clan.
Otherwise, he would not have been tasked to lead the charge to subdue Min Province altogether as soon as he returned.
It was a deliberate effort to mold Song Shijie into someone who could stand on his own.
“I can put the case with that b*tch aside for now, but Lu Xuan has to die!” Song Maoxun continued through gritted teeth, “I’ll make sure his death is as horrible as it gets.”
However, yet another elder stepped in. “From what we’ve been able to gather, I’m afraid Lu Xuan is already at Deity level. With the exception of the Great Ancestor, you, sir, would be the only one about to achieve such a level out of all of us.”
“I’d request the Great Ancestor’s emergence, then,” Song Maoxun said coldly. He then continued, seeing some reluctant faces among the crowd. “Although the Great Ancestor is at a key moment for making a breakthrough, if we, the Song Clan, sit around and do nothing despite knowing that Shijie had been crippled, what will the others think of us?”
“This is more than revenge for Shijie. This is also for the good of the Song Clan!” Song Maoxun said. “I will make him pay. I’m absolutely going to make him suffer!”
“Appeal to the Great Ancestor and request his emergence right away. I’m going to shock the world with that Lu Xuan’s head and show them all what happens to anyone who crosses the Song Clan!”
