Star Realm.
"Teacher, three days have passed. The four clans have had enough time to consider it. Those old foxes can't be allowed to hold out for a better price. We need to take the initiative."
Xiao Yan abruptly rose to his feet in the Sect Master Hall.
"Mm, that works. According to the original plan, I'll visit the Yao Clan, and you'll visit the Ancient Clan. Once we secure those two clans, the Lei Clan and Yan Tribe won't be able to sit still."
Yao Chen smiled faintly, and master and disciple immediately departed Star Realm.
Yao Clan, atop Yao Mountain.
Yao Dan and Great Elder Wanhuo were quietly discussing something when someone suddenly reported that Yao Chen, the master of Sky Mansion, had come to visit.
"Hehe, Yao Chen must be here for the sake of his precious disciple."
Yao Dan exchanged a glance with Wan Huo, then smiled. "Bring him in."
Before long, an elegant middle-aged man with a face as handsome as jade flew over gracefully.
"Clan Leader Yao Dan."
Yao Chen had only just bowed when Yao Dan directly interrupted him. "Yao Chen, I already know why you've come. I can give you our clan's Ancient Jade, but you must agree to one condition."
"A condition? Please speak, Clan Leader Yao Dan."
Yao Chen was slightly stunned before smiling.
"Since the name Yao Chen has already been entered upon our clan's Clan Stele, why not formally return to our clan? My condition is that you publicly announce your return to the Yao Clan, serve as one of our honorary elders, and join the Council of Elders."
Yao Dan looked at Yao Chen with a smile.
That was right. What Yao Dan wanted was for Yao Chen to return to the Yao Clan.
Times had changed.
