While talking, that divine king was going to take action to capture Ye Yuan duo. But right at this time, the two white tiger statues at the entrance of the land of ancestral spirits suddenly emitted a terrifying energy.
Rumble!
That divine king was directly sent flying, while the grand array painstakingly laid down by the Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan's powerhouses was also immediately blasted apart.
Instantly, Ye Yuan felt the shackles on him lighten, and he could not help letting out a light chuckle. He clasped his hands towards the mausoleum and said, "Senior Fan Lin, thank you very much!"
Done talking, Ye Yuan's body gradually became illusionary, directly merging into heaven and earth.
With a sway, it was a million miles away.
But right at this time, a terrifying aura surged over from far away and actually locked onto Ye Yuan from far away.
"Humph, really lingering on relentlessly!" Ye Yuan gave a cold snort and merged into heaven and earth once more.
However, Pan Yin did not go and chase Ye Yuan, but thoroughly sealed off his route.
No matter how fast Ye Yuan's speed was, he still had to return to the White Tiger Clan's territory in the end.
Head Elder seemed to have expected it long ago, so he did not have the intention of going to chase at all.
However, Ye Yuan did not dance in circles with Pan Yin, but directly met him head-on.
When Ye Yuan approached Pan Yin, he immediately revealed his figure.
Pan Yin looked at Ye Yuan and said with a cold smile, "What? Know that there's no way out and came out to surrender without putting up a resistance?"
Ye Yuan said with a smile, "Old Man Pan Yin, somebody wants to have a word with you. It won't be too late to come and be overbearing with me after hearing his words."
Pan Yin snorted coldly and said, "Even if you bring out the Jade Emperor, you have to stay behind for me today too!"
Ye Yuan shrugged his shoulders. Fl.i.c.k.i.n.g his sleeves grandly, an archaic aura that had experienced that many vicissitudes of life emerged.
"Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan obey the order: immediately let Ye Yuan go! You're not to disobey!" An awe-inspiring voice sounded out. Pan Yin's expression could not help changing greatly when he heard it.
Chapter 994 - Racking up the Past
It was no wonder that Pan Yin's expression changed drastically. This archaic aura that had experienced that many vicissitudes of life were identical to the tomb guardian's aura.
Which was also to say that letting Ye Yuan go was the tomb guardian's wish!
But how was this possible?
The tomb guardian was the Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan's tomb guardian. There was no reason to do it to this extent for a human boy, right?
Recalling when he burned incense and prayed to enter the land of ancestral spirits, the message sent back from over there, Pan Yin was certain that the tomb guardian indeed wanted to protect Ye Yuan!
However, this was something that made no sense!
Pan Yin was very depressed right now, very depressed!
Expended such a huge effort, in the end, it was actually this sort of result. This made Pan Yin somewhat unable to accept it.
But the tomb guardian lineage had an extremely special place in the Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan. Even the patriarch did not dare to defy the tomb guardian's wishes either, let alone him, this head elder.
Seeing the look of hesitation on Pan Yin's face, Ye Yuan said with a smile that was not a smile, "Why, does Head Elder want to disobey the tomb guardian's order? With head elder's seniority, you should be able to enter the land of ancestral spirits. But if you oppose the tomb guardians, forget about you, probably the people in this generation will all be unable to enter the land of ancestral spirits anymore."
Pan Yin's expression changed when he heard that. Ye Yuan's words indeed jabbed his sore spot.
Entering the land of ancestral spirits after death was an utmost honor to the Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan.
This was a kind of belief that came from the depths of the soul. Pan Yin was not able to stand aloof too.
Not being able to enter the land of ancestral spirits, this was what Pan Yin could not accept.
"What happened to you guys in the land of ancestral spirits? Why would the tomb guardian specifically do this sort of thing for you guys?" Pan Yin said solemnly.
Ye Yuan shrugged his shoulders and said, "If you want to know, just enter yourself and ask the tomb guardian? If you can't enter now, wait until when you're almost dying then going in to ask is also the same."
"You!" Pan Yin could not help being exasperated.
"What? Head Elder really don't wish to enter the land of ancestral spirits anymore?"
Pan Yin's expression flickered erratically. After a struggle, he finally still moved aside.
Ye Yuan passed by Pan Yin calmly. Suddenly, he turned around and said to him with a smile, "Oh, right, Head Elder, your Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan and the White Tiger Clan are both tiger clans at any rate. How pointless is it to kill here and kill there for generations like this. If you guys unite, it would probably be sufficient to contend with the dragon clan already."
Although the White Tiger Clan was powerful, their strength clearly diminished greatly after splitting.
Among the Four Great Divine Beasts bloodlines, it was the White Tiger Clan who were the weakest instead.
It was also unknown what in the world happened between the Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan and the White Tiger Clan back then, to actually make the two great clans' slaughter last for so many years.
"Humph! It isn't your, an outsider's turn, to meddle in the matters between our two clans!" Pan Yin said with an angry snort.
Ye Yuan spread his hands out helplessly and directly merged into heaven and earth and left.
Several figures flew in. A few divine kings just happened to saw this scene, and could not help being very surprised.
"Head Elder, why did that boy leave?" A divine king said in bewilderment.
Head Elder's face fell as he said, "No idea why, the tomb guardian is actually protecting this boy from another clan. There must be something fishy about this! Let them all pull back. This matter still needs to be discussed at length.
Pan Yin's words made all the divine kings' expressions change drastically.
Ye Yuan broke into the land of the ancestral spirits. Not only did the tomb guardian not kill them, he even protected them to leave the Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan. This was simply too fantastical.
...
Splash!
White Light kicked over with a foot, directly kicking Ling Ninehills until he knelt on the ground.
After coming out from the land of ancestral spirits, White Light's perspective towards the Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan and White Tiger Clan had a massive change.
But towards this Ling Ninehills, he had not the slightest hint of a good impression.
"Head Elder, this Ye was fortunate to not have failed the mission and brought Ling Ninehills back. Hope that Head Elder will keep your promise. White Light and Xiao-er's matters, the White Tiger Clan should be able to acknowledge it, right?"
This was the agreement between Ye Yuan and Rong Kun. If Ye Yuan brought Ling Ninehills back, the White Tiger Clan would not interfere with White Light and Xiao-er's matters anymore.
Additionally, Ye Yuan even rescued Xiao-er's parents on this trip, letting her have no more worries back at home. It could be said to be killing three birds with one arrow.
Of course, the part of this trip where they truly benefited from was still inside the land of ancestral spirits.
In there, White Light completed a qualitative transformation, while Ye Yuan became aware of the secret of his Atavism Dragon Soul.
Inside the great hall, all of the patriarchs and elders association's elders all looked at Ye Yuan like they had seen a ghost.
They were seriously unable to imagine how Ye Yuan completed this impossible to complete mission.
Head Elder waved his hand and mad
e people bring Ling Ninehills away.
Compared to Ling Ninehills, what Rong Kun was more interested in right now was still how Ye Yuan came out from inside the land of ancestral spirits, and how he escaped the Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan's layers of encirclement and returned to the White Tiger Clan.
"Ye Yuan, we heard that you entered the Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan's land of ancestral spirits. I wonder how you guys escaped?" Rong Kun said with a heated gaze.
"Escaped? Why is there a need to use 'escape' this word? We walked out openly and aboveboard just like that!" Ye Yuan said with a smile that was not a smile.
"Humph! Revealed your true colors, right? If you and White Light are not the Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan's spies, on what basis would they let you guys leave?" Rong Yin gave a cold snort and signaled to several patriarchs with his eyes.
Several patriarchs understood and immediately started lashing out at Ye Yuan.
"The Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan is heavily guarded. Even if you comprehended Heaven Man Unity, it's also not possible to capture Ling Ninehills and bring him back! Unless … they deliberately let you capture!"
"Heh, losing a Line Ninehills and planting a spy who's the young patriarch. This transaction is seriously too worthwhile!"
"That Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan's head elder's strength is extremely formidable. With your strength, being trapped in the land of ancestral spirits, is there still a possibility of escaping alive?"
The matters previously, White Light did not get stripped of his qualifications. Rather, Rong Xin was stripped of his candidate rights.
His father betrayed the White Tiger Clan, who still dared to believe that his son was innocent?
Ye Yuan returning safe and sound this time, Rong Yin had long prepared statements for raking up the past, waiting for him here.
Furthermore, regardless of which aspect, Ye Yuan being able to return safe and sound was something unthinkable. This excuse, it was not up to Head Elder to decide to not believe.
Indeed, Rong Kun revealed a pondering look. The other elders and patriarchs also nodded their heads continuously.
It was true that Ye Yuan was very strange and also true that he had a lot of tricks. But being trapped in the land of ancestral spirits, under the circ.u.mstances where the Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan was prepared, on what basis was Ye Yuan able to return safe and sound?
"Ha … Hahaha …" Being attacked by so many patriarchs, Ye Yuan suddenly guffawed with laughter.
Rong Yin's expression turned cold, and he said solemnly, "What are you laughing at? Could it be that what we said was wrong? If you have proof, prove it for us to see!"
Ye Yuan looked at Rong Yin and said with a smile that was not a smile, "I'm laughing that you guys are all morons! It's fine if you're dumb, do you think that the Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan's Head Elder, Pan Yin, are as dumb as you too?"
Rong Yin quickly stood up as he said with a livid expression, "Oh? Then I'm all ears as to how we're dumb!"
Chapter 995 - White Light's Counterattack
"If you are Pan Yin, would you force a spy into the land of ancestral spirits with great fanfare, then plant the spy in the White Tiger Clan? Isn't this blatantly telling you all that I'm a spy?"
Ye Yuan's words involuntarily made those patriarchs who called him into question choke.
Yeah, between the Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan and the White Tiger Clan, apart from the patriarchs planning out strategies in the headquarters, the ones who directly crossed swords were Pan Yin and Rong Kun.
These few years, Pan Yin's methods were plain for everybody to see.
This sort of low-level mistakes, it was absolutely impossible for Pan Yin to make them!
Even if it was putting up an act, this sort of play was also a bit too low-level and completely not like Pan Yin's style.
"Then tell me about it, why Pan Yin would let you go." A patriarch said with a cold snort.
Ye Yuan said with a smile, "Very simple, because he's afraid of the land of ancestral spirits' tomb guardian, while me and White Light … are on very friendly terms with the tomb guardian."
The moment these words came out, everyone turned pale from shock.
Ye Yuan and White Light were actually on close terms with the Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan's tomb guardian. This sounded unnatural, no matter how one listened.
"Humph! Still say that you guys aren't spies?! I want to know why White Light, as a member of the White Tiger Clan, would mix together with the tomb guardian?" Rong Yin said with a cold snort.
Ye Yuan looked at him with a smile that was not a smile and said with a laugh, "Not just that! White Light obtained a massive lucky chance inside the land of ancestral spirits! White Light, display your bloodline a little, let the elders take a look at whether you have the qualifications to be the White Tiger Clan's young patriarch or not!"
"Yes, Big Brother!"
White Light voiced his assent and displayed his bloodline pressure without reservation.
Right at that moment he fully released his bloodline pressure, all of the elders, including Head Elder Rong Kun, all turned pale with fright.
"Sacred rank bloodline! It's actually sacred rank bloodline! My god, how is this possible?"
"Extremely pure white tiger bloodline! I … I actually have an impulse to prostrate in worship!"
"My eyesight is failing, right? White Light is just initial-stage Tier 9, and he actually broke through to sacred rank bloodline already! Truly, heaven is protecting my White Tiger Clan!"
The elders' cries of exclamations sounded out everywhere. Even Rong Yin had a dumbfounded look too.
Such terrifying bloodline power. they had never experienced before from Head Elder too!
As for the patriarch, he was in a closed-seclusion state throughout the year. It was also unknown whether he broke through to sacred rank bloodline or not.
But the problem was, the patriarch was already advanced in years, while White Light's age did not even count as an adolescent in the White Tiger Clan.
When his strength reached the Divine King Realm, who else in the Demon Region could be his opponent?
Such a person not becoming the young patriarch, who else was suitable to be the young patriarch?
Only after being shocked for a long time, did Rong Kun spat out a long breath of turbid air. His gaze, when looking at White Light, became different.
"Little Light, what kind of fortuitous encounter did you obtain in the land of ancestral spirits, to actually breakthrough to sacred rank bloodline? How is the Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan's land of ancestral spirits able to let you glean considerable gains?" Rong Kun calmed his emotions down and asked.
White Light said, "I don't know about this either. I'm also very curious myself. But I saw the memorial tablet of a White Tiger Clan's ancestor inside the land of ancestral spirits! Presumably … our White Tiger Clan and the Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan actually have some relationship, right?"
The two clans' secret, White Light did not plan on revealing right now. But divulging a bit of rumor let everyone have a score in their hearts too.
White Light's words stirred up titanic waves in the White Tiger Clan.
"What? The Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan's land of ancestral spirits actually has the memorial tablet of a White Tiger Clan's ancestor? This … How is this possible?"
"The Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan's natural disposition is cruel and savage; completely out of tune with the White Tiger Clan. How is it possible to have any relation with us?"
"The Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan and the White Tiger Clan are mortal enemies! It's absolutely impossible for the two families to have any relations at all!"
The various elders exploded and scoffed in contempt towards White Light's way of saying things. This idea that was handed down from generation to generation suddenly met with a turnabout. This made them instinctively reject it.
White Light saw everyone's behavior and could not help exchanging a glance with Ye Yuan, rather helpless.
Indeed, integratin
g the two clans was not that easy of a matter.
"Alright, talk about this matter afterward! Sacred rank bloodline has an extraordinary significance to my White Tiger Clan. I believe that everyone will also not have any more doubts regarding White Light's candidate identity. As for Ye Yuan, this seat knows that he has the ability to bring Ling Ninehills back from the Heavenly Fiend Tiger Clan. Otherwise, I wouldn't have sent him over. Now that he did it, this seat will naturally keep my word. That Fang Xiao and her parents will stay in the clan, but their movements will receive strict surveillance! White Light, you should be able to understand, right?"
Rong Kun finally stopped everyone's discussing voices and set the views about this matter.
White Light clasped his hands and said, "Many thanks to Head Elder for stretching the rules! White Light already said before when I returned to the Flowing Light Clan, I received the summonings of my inheritance memories, that's why I came back to the clan. Therefore, I'm absolutely loyal to the White Tiger Clan! My sincerity, the sky and the sun can bear witness!"
Rong Kun nodded his head and said with a smile, "You are all tired. Go back and rest first. Ten days later, will be the date of the young patriarch trial. At that time, the other three families of the four symbols family clans will all send people over to observe the ceremony. The three of you mustn't lose face in front of outsiders!"
After Rong Xin had his qualifications revoked, the Crimsonflame Clan naturally had to select another person to replace Rong Xin. Therefore, the ones taking part in the young patriarch trial was still three people.
It was just that after today, the other two people would probably have to become White Light's foil.
White Light breaking through to sacred rank bloodline, this position of young patriarch, only he could fill the post.
But Ye Yuan also knew that Rong Yin probably would not let it go like this, and might fabricate something out of thin air.
...
After everyone left, there was only Rong Kun and Bai Yi left in the great hall.
"Head Elder, do you really believe what they said?" Bai Yi opened his mouth and asked.
Rong Kun shot him a glance and said coolly, "Why wouldn't I believe? This seat won't be mistaken! Little Light this child usually look reserved. Actually, his disposition is very pure and isn't suited to be a spy at all. Compared to Little Light, what this seat takes more notice of is actually still that boy called Ye Yuan."
