Ch. 303Movements of the Various Factions
With Tang Xiao missing, Ye Xi intensified Frost Snow Pavilion’s pressure on the Clear Sky Sect and sought a way to act before he returned. She and Qian Renxue devised a plan to use death-row prisoners to manufacture a pretext for attacking the Clear Sky Sect and, potentially, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
- After Tang Xiao and the others remained missing, Tang Huang took over as the Clear Sky Sect’s acting Sect Master and brought former Tang Sect disciples into its ranks.
- Yang Wudi told Ye Xi that the Clear Sky Sect refused to hand over the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng and said Tang Xiao would demand an explanation upon his return.
- Ye Xi ordered Yang Wudi to continue suppressing the Clear Sky Sect and monitor the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
- Ye Xi visited Qian Renxue and asked her to find a death-row prisoner, explaining that she wanted the Clear Sky Sect to appear responsible for a provocation.
- Qian Renxue agreed to help Ye Xi select several prisoners so their deaths could provide an excuse to act against the Clear Sky Sect and possibly the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
