  So Qin Yue’s indulgence of Ke Cang Ju’s actions were not only for the revenge of Qin Yu Yan but to use that as an excuse to undermine the positions of the Elders?

  That thought sprouted in the minds of the various Elders and their dissatisfaction against Qin Yue suddenly grew to doubt and they became wary.

  Qin Yue’s face paled, and he stared at “Ke Cang Ju” thinking that “Ke Cang Ju” must have lost his mind! His words were about to make the whole situation blow up!

  Gritting his teeth, Qin Yue still did not dare force “Ke Cang Ju” into a corner as “Ke Cang Ju” still held evidence that could bring him down from his seat of power.

  Qin Yue had never been in such an uncomfortable position. The same Ke Cang Ju who had helped him usurp the position of the Sovereign of the Qing Yun Clan before had today turned out to pose as his most hated but untouchable threat to him!

  Taking a deep breath, Qin Yue pushed down the fury within, his eyes red from the effort, he finally said: “Elder Ke, your two disciples were disrespectful before the Sovereign. According to the rules of the Qing Yun Clan, they must be punished.”

  If he could not touch Ke Cang Ju, he would kill his disciples to appease his anger! Just to hit back at Ke Cang Ju.

  “Ke Cang Ju” raised an eyebrow and looked at the quietly seated Jun Xie, and his mouth curled into a smile.

  “Sovereign Qin, are you sure you want to carry that out?” It seemed that Qin Yue could not hold himself back anymore.

  Volume 4

  Chapter 328: “Storm Clouds Loom (4)”

  Qin Yue frowned, a chill showing in his eyes.

  “Of course.”

  The incident today would need blood to be spilled to suppress it. Jun Wu Xie’s words had made the secret between Qin Yue and Ke Cang Ju an open book for all to see. If Qin Yue did not do anything to show his authority, the other Elders might see it as weakness and exploit the fiery situation.

  Only if the two Hidden Cloud Peak disciples paid in blood, would he be able to calm the chaos before him.

  Firstly, it would show that Qin Yue did not show Ke Cang Ju any special favours or indemnity, and even the disciples of the Hidden Cloud Peak, who were under the protection of Ke Cang Ju, would be killed when wrongdoing was committed. There had been the deaths of disciples from the various peaks in this incident and killing the two Hidden Cloud Peak disciples would appease the other Elders’ rage to a certain degree.

  Secondly…..

  Those two scoundrels….. One had a big mouth, and the other attacked his disciples. That had greatly challenged his dignity as the Sovereign and if he did not kill them, his position as the Sovereign would be greatly undermined today.

  And there could be a third…..

  Qin Yue narrowed his eyes as he stared at Ke Cang Ju.

  Thirdly, it was to knock some sense into this overly arrogant and overbearing Ke Cang Ju!

  The few Blue Cloud Peak disciples got to their feet, their eyes tinged with fear as they looked at QIao Chu. Qin Yue had already given his orders, and that had meant that Jun Wu Xie’s and Qiao Chu’s were to be rid.

  But the disciples had been taken down with a single swipe of Qiao Chu’s kick, and they were now gripped in fear.

  The disciples wanted to arrest those two youths, but…..

  Those two were just too strong for them!

  “Why are all of you still standing there! Get rid of the two of them right now!” Qin Yue shouted.

  The several Blue Cloud Peak disciples looked at each other, grieving at their own helplessness.

  They struggled for a long while, before they carefully took a step towards Qiao Chu.

  However…..

  In a blink of an eye, those Blue Cloud Peak disciples were soundly thrashed by Qiao Chu and thrown out of the main hall. The disciples lay scattered on the ground outside unmoving, all of them seemingly unconscious!

  The disciples of the Qing Yun Clan were more inclined towards the practice of Medicine and were not highly skilled in their spiritual powers. The Qing Yun Clan invited many strong expert exponents to serve as resident mercenaries to make up for that lack. The disciples’ weak combat prowess were just pathetic before Qiao Chu’s pair of fists.

  After ridding himself of the weak and pesky disciples, Qiao Chu swept off the dust on his palms, and a smirk hung on his face.

  Qin Yue’s face was thunderously dark. He had not expected Ke Cang Ju’s disciple to possess such strength. A group of his Blue Cloud Peak disciples were thrown out of the hall and knocked out in mere moments.

  “Ke Cang Ju!! Would you not rein your disciples in!?” Qin Yue screamed.

  “Ke Cang Ju” stood up slowly and replied: “My Sovereign, you were the one who wanted me to develop the poison, and you were the one who agreed to use the disciples of the other peaks to experiment the poison on, but now, you want to use my disciples’ life to appease the outrage from the other peaks instead. I cannot find it within myself to agree to it.”

  Qin Yue eyes bulged, staring at “Ke Cang Ju” unbelievably. He could not believe what he was hearing! “Ke Cang Ju” was pushing all the blame onto him!

  “Ke Cang Ju” turned to the other Elders and said: “Seek your justice from the head, the Qing Yun Clan is led by our Sovereign and he calls the shots. If he did not agree, how would I be able to touch your disciples? Qin Yue was the one who gave me the orders, but now he wants me to shoulder the blame. I am unwilling and unable to shoulder such a big responsibility.”

  Qin Yue was visibly trembling in rage by now and the Elders were absolutely furious.

  “Ke Cang Ju” was incorrigible, but his words made absolute sense. If he had not gotten Qin Yue’s approval, he would not have been able to touch the disciples from the various peaks!

  All this tragedy had started from Qin Yue and was possible only with his approval!

  The dissatisfaction from the other Elders for Qin Yue had only been due to the favouritism and indulgence shown to Ke Cang Ju, but this day, it had ballooned to unseen before proportions!

  Volume 4

  Chapter 329: “Sixth Slap (1)”

  Mu Chen, who had stayed silent all this while exchanged a glance with Jun Wu Xie without anyone noticing. Mu Chen stood up and said: “My Sovereign, may I ask if we, the Elders of the various peaks acted inappropriately to make you raise your guard against us. If your intention is to diminish the powers and authority of the Elders, you would only need to issue a command and there was no need for such underhanded methods. You are the Sovereign and your word is law. Your word alone is enough to make the Elders disappear.”

  Mu Chen’s words struck a chord deep within the hearts of the Elders. His words reminded the Elders and reprimanded Qin Yue of his duplicity in this incident that brought about the deaths of their disciples.

  Qin Yue’s head turned to face another adversary, all bent on bringing about his downfall.

  The other Elders were poked into action and they opened their mouths in chorus, throwing words of admonishment and reprimand at Qin Yue.

  Who was Qin Yue? How the leadership of the Qing Yun Clan fell into his hands was not clear, but the various Elders had a very good guess at what had actually happened.

  A man who lusted for power so badly, that he murdered his own Teacher. Such a man was definitely capable of making moves against his own Elders, to diminish their authority.

  In moments, the main hall of the Qing Yun Clan exploded in anger as all the other Elders pointed their fingers at Qin Yue!

  Qin Yue suddenly became their common enemy.

  Jun Wu Xie eyed the spectacle before her and her eyes chilled.

  Under the beration from all the Elders, Qin Yue burst out, and shouted at the silently observing “Ke Cang Ju”: “Ke Cang Ju! As an Elder of the Hidden Cloud Peak, you instigated the other Elders against me! What is your real underlying motive!?”

  Qin Yue was going mad, he knew “Ke Cang Ju” was not dumb enough to watch him go down in flames. He should know what he sho
uld do! Ke Cang Ju should know that if Qin Yue were not able to protect his position as the Sovereign through this, neither Ke Cang Ju would be let off easy by the other Elders.

  The other Elders would come down just as hard on him!

  “Ke Cang Ju” stood up slowly, and looked calmly at the fuming Qin Yue before he said: “I have no hidden motives, but was just stating facts.”

  Qin Yue clenched his jaw and said: “What facts!? Why are you going against me!? Why!!?”

  “Ke Cang Ju” smiled but did not reply, and Jun Wu Xie stood up at that moment, her chilling eyes fixed on Qin Yue, and she calmly retorted.

  “Because, he is not the Elder of the Hidden Cloud Peak.”

  “What!?” Qin Yue froze as he stared incredulously at the petite figure before him.

  “Hua Yao, let the Sovereign see you as who you really are.” Jun Wu Xie smiled, the symphony of calamity was about to start, playing throughout the peaks of the Qing Yun Clan!

  As Jun Wu Xie’s words were heard by the ears of the people present, their eyes witnessed an incredible sight!

  They saw the badly bowed back of the hunched up “Ke Cang Ju” start to straighten, the short stature started to grow, the hideous countenance shifted and the features on his face started to change to become chiseled and sharp, turning beautiful as the moments went by.

  Hua Yao shrugged off the dark cloak on him, and his tall frame was clothed in light purple clothes.

  Moments later, the hideous middle aged hunchback had transformed before the eyes of the people in the hall into a eye popping beautiful youth!

  A heavy silence suddenly hung within the spacious main hall, and all eyes were fixed on the unfamiliar beautiful youth suddenly standing right before them!

  The transformation that had happened before their eyes was incredulous and totally unheard of!

  “You….. you are not Ke Cang Ju!” His face was deathly pale, as Qin Yue pointed a shaking finger at Hua Yao.

  “He never was.” Jun Wu Xie laughed lightly. The laugh lit up Jun Wu Xie’s delicate featured face in a way that somehow made her dazzle at that moment.

  Volume 4

  Chapter 330: “Sixth Slap (2)”

  “Who are you!” Qin Yue’s anger turned to fear, Ke Cang Ju had been unknowingly disposed of and was currently impersonated by someone else! When did all this start? Since when had the Ke Cang Ju he had been seeing all this while been swapped with this youth before him!

  Morever, he had not noticed anything different before this!

  Not knowing what was happening made him start to lose his grip on the situation and his fear rose further.

  “We are here to claim your life!” Jun Wu Xie stared at Qin Yue, observing his expression of fear on his face.

  The top clan across the lands, the Sovereign of the Qing Yun Clan, with his face contorted in fear, was a sight that was very rarely seen.

  And she firmly believed, that that expression of fear would remain plastered on his face till his moment of death!

  “What audacity! All this time, it was you impersonating Ke Cang Ju!? You were the one wholly responsible for killing the disciples from the other peaks!” Qin Yue spoke through gritted teeth, and in his fear, a glimmer of hope started to shine within his heart!

  If Ke Cang Ju had actually been this youth all this while, he would be able to push all the blame to that youth and divert the Elders’ hatred and anger to him!

  “I suggested it.” Jun Wu Xie said to Qin Yue, a smile on her face.

  “How wicked and vicious of you! You dare incite hatred between the Sovereign and his Elders!? My Elders, you heard him, all this turmoil was stirred up by these culprits! They plotted to divide the powers that be in the Qing Yun Clan and carry out their insidious secret plot!” Qin Yue grasped desperately at this last glimmer of hope and tried to heap all the blame for the accusations onto the youth!

  As expected, with Hua Yao’s identity glaringly exposed, the Elders started to recover from their stupor. It had happened too suddenly and the events that had unfolded were both shocking and unbelievable. The hatred towards Qin Yue was gradually diverted to the unknown enemy.

  The Elders were conscious of the fact that at times like this, it called for them to unite against an external threat!

  “I had thought that our Elder Ke would never commit such vicious atrocities! So you are the culprits! Speak the truth now, what have you done with Elder Ke!?” Qin Yue saw that the Elders’ anger had subsided somewhat and he aggressively pushed to divert their anger fully.

  No matter who these youths were, they would not leave the Blue Cloud Peak alive!

  Qin Yue laughed in his heart, thinking that the three youths were still inexperienced. If they had not exposed themselves, and used Ke Cang Ju’s identity to incite the Elders’ anger, he would have suffered greatly under the Elders’ combined rage.

  But just as things were getting too hot to handle, those idiots had revealed themselves and shocked the Elders, and their rage had subsided completely!

  Qin Yue almost laughed out loud. Even Heaven was on his side!

  Jun Wu Xie saw Qin Yue’s suppressed glee and her smile grew wider. “Ke Cang Ju? You’ll get to meet him soon – In the depths of hell.”

  Qin Yue froze. “You killed him?” His eyes were wide in consternation.

  Qin Yue knew Ke Cang Ju’s abilities very well, and even a highly skilled blue spirit expert might not be his match. He might not have possessed spiritual powers, but his proficiency with poison was nothing to sneeze at!

  Three mere young youths would not be able to kill an such a highly proficient poison user that easily.

  “Yes.” Jun Wu Xie answered honestly.

  Qin Yue narrowed his eyes in anger and said: “You dare murder an Elder of the Qing Yun Clan and kill our disciples! You even have the audacity to incite hatred between the Elders and me, trying to cleave a wedge in our ranks! None of you can hope to leave here alive today!”

  Volume 4

  Chapter 331: “Sixth Slap (3)”

  Jun Wu Xie said with smile: “Don’t worry, not everyone in the Qing Yun Clan will die, and we have no intentions of leaving yet.”

  Qin Yue stared at Jun Wu Xie, unable to believe that a young ordinary looking petite youth dared speak so arrogantly to him!

  He had said that not all the people in the Qing Yun Clan will perish, and they were not above to flee!

  Was the petite youth telling him that he intended to annihilate the Qing Yun Clan!?

  “You are getting too far ahead of yourself! Obliterate the Qing Yun Clan? You think yourself capable of such a feat!?” Qin Yue laughed coldly.

  All the Elders had stood up at Jun Wu Xie’s provocative words. No matter how chaotic things were among the leaders within the Qing Yun Clan, when faced with an external enemy, they knew to group together to take the opponent down.

  “You brat. You’ll see that you would have to eat those words of yours. Just the three of you and you want to annihilate the whole of Qing Yun Clan? What a joke!” Cai Zhuo sneered as he looked at the young trio before them. After the initial shock revelations, he had had enough time to calm himself.

  In the eyes of the Elders, they acknowledged that they had some good abilities if they were able to kill Ke Cang Ju. But they had dared to toy with the leadership of the mighty Qing Yun Clan and the proud and egotistical Elders did not take well to the idea that they had been played as pawns in the youths’ plot.

  “Whether the joke’s on you or on me remains to be seen.” Jun Wu Xie said softly.

  “Oh! That I would like to find out. Show me what you’ve got to back up those arrogant words of yours!” Qin Yue’s worries dissipated at that moment and his rage took over. If not for these three youths, he would not have needed to suffer the torment of doubt and distrust, nearly driving his position of leadership into a precarious situation, and chaos would not have swept through the Qing Yun Clan, and the Elders would not have turned against him collectively!

  Qin
Yue gave a mighty shout and many disciples who were standing guard outside rushed into the hall. More than a hundred disciples surrounded Jun Wu Xie, Qiao Chu and Hua Yao, cutting off any routes of escape.

  “No matter how skilled you think yourself to be, do not even think of escaping from here alive!” Qin Yue eyes flashed cruelly.

  Jun Wu Xie eyed the Blue Cloud Peak disciples around them, and the ends of her mouth curled deeper.

  “Escape? There’s no need for that.”

  “All disciples hear my order! Arrest the three of them at once!” Qin Yue hollered.

  At that moment, all the Blue Cloud Peak disciples jumped at the surrounded trio!

  At the same time that the disciples pounced, two streaks blurred and exploded within the crowd!

  A humongous two headed bone snake slithered lightning fast right in the middle of all the action. The two headed bone snake had no flesh on his body but only bones that shone glaringly white. A pair of blood red eyes on each of its head stared venomously at the disciples, and each of its head was as big as a full grown adult male! The two headed bone snake swung its tail at the crowd of disciples and its serrated bones cut all in the tail’s path, as sharp as finely honed blades! Blood flowed and flesh tore!

  On the other side, an immense lumbering bear gave out a ear splitting roar. Its starkly separated black and white fur posed a striking figure. At over two meters tall, a single swipe of its paw made mincemeat out of a huge chunk of the disciples!

  The sudden appearance of two massive beast ring spirits made the disciples of the Blue Cloud Peak who surrounded the trio howl in terror and many were too flustered and they clumsily tried to summon their own ring spirits. A pity those ring spirits were pathetic in terms of size or attack power, and they did not even pose a threat to the two huge beasts before them!
