The Four Clans Submit, and He Leaves with a Flick of His Sleeve

"Old Orangutan..."

At that moment, Yang Wudi looked at Titan lying on the ground, his gaze clouded as though he were about to fall asleep, and his feelings were incomparably complicated.

He had always been frustrated with this old friend who was loyal to the Clear Sky Sect. Although the Four Single-Attribute Clans had been subdued by Tang Chen back then, that did not mean they had become one with the Clear Sky Sect. It was obvious enough from the fact that the Clear Sky Sect never invited the four clan heads to its meetings whenever important matters arose.

Yet Titan had truly consoled himself, even lowering himself from the dignified head of a subordinate sect to a "servant."

A Soul Douluo serving as a servant...

Yang Wudi could not understand what kind of bewitching potion those Hammer Men had fed Old Orangutan.

To the point that today, he had been casually abandoned by the Clear Sky Sect.

And he still wanted to die for them?!

If Yang Wudi had not known Titan for so many years... he would have wanted to curse him. You deserve to die, Clan Head of the "Servant" Clan!

"Old Goat, Old White Bird, Old Rhino..."

Titan stared blankly at the sky, seemingly calling out their names unconsciously.

"Hey, Old Orangutan, if you have anything to say, say it quickly."

Niu Gao sighed and spoke softly.

Titan's death was an internal matter of his own clan, so even if Yang Wudi and the other two felt sorrow and indignation, they would not do anything.

After all, Titan's insistence on leading his entire clan to their deaths truly left them speechless.

"Life is short... from now on... be freer..."

After muttering those baffling words, Titan closed his eyes.

His hand fell limply to the ground.

"Alas..." x3

A moment later, Tainuo returned. After noticing his father's condition, he said nothing and hoisted Titan onto his shoulder.

Then he walked deeper into the clan grounds.

At the same time, the Temple Guard Knights and their Knight Commander arrived before the camps of the other three clans.

"Have you made your decision?"

After Ghost Douluo returned to the Spirit Hall camp and no longer showed himself, the task of persuading the Four Single-Attribute Clans fell to this Knight Commander.

Across from him, Yang Wudi and Niu Gao remained silent. Bai He, however, seemed to have suddenly come to a realization. He pulled a man and a woman out from the Speed Clan. The man was his son, Bai Yu, while the woman was Bai Yu's wife, who was pregnant.

After Bai He spoke with his son Bai Yu for a while, he walked up to the Knight Commander and offered him a dark blue gemstone with both hands.

"What is this?"

The Knight Commander accepted it in confusion.

However, Bai He did not answer. Instead, he suddenly bowed toward the Spirit Hall camp, then solemnly declared:

"I, Bai He, am willing to represent the Speed Clan in submitting to Spirit Hall."

"Old White Bird, what's gotten into you?"

Yang Wudi and Niu Gao were both baffled by this.

Even if the Attack Clan and Defense Clan had surrendered first, they would not have been this shocked.

Why had the Speed Clan, which had the closest ties to the Clear Sky Sect, been the first instead?

They could not understand it.

Bai He did not respond to them. He merely pointed at the gemstone in the Knight Commander's palm and continued:

"This gemstone is a Storage Soul Tool. It contains the few remaining treasures accumulated by my Speed Clan over the years. Today, I am willing to offer them all to Spirit Hall, hoping only that your hall will treat the disciples of my Speed Clan well."

"Also, from this day onward, my son Bai Yu will be the clan head of the Speed Clan."

"As for me..."

"My ties to the Clear Sky Sect run too deep. Even if I went to Spirit City, I imagine there would be nothing for me to do. So I intend to travel the continent from this day forward and live as an idle wanderer."

He looked around, his gaze passing over the Knight Commander, Yang Wudi, Niu Gao, his son and daughter-in-law, and every disciple of the Speed Clan.

"Take care, everyone."

After his final farewell, Bai He directly activated Martial Soul Possession and unleashed his Swift-tailed Swallow True Body, shooting off into the distance with a whoosh.

With his speed, unless Spirit Hall's Grand Elders took action, no one present could stop him—unless Ju and Ghost Douluo flew over and deployed the Polarity Stillness Domain.

But would Ju and Ghost Douluo make a move?

If Bai He had wanted to flee, they naturally would have. Yet Bibi Dong, seated atop her carriage, signaled to Ju and Ghost Douluo that it was "fine," effectively acquiescing to Bai He's departure.

At the same time, she promised to honor Bai He's request before leaving.

Next.

It was finally time for the Attack Clan and Defense Clan to make their choice.

Yang Wudi and Niu Gao exchanged glances. Honestly, neither had expected that they would be the last to make a decision.

Now, Old Orangutan was dead, and Old White Bird had left. Only the two of them remained.

What else could they choose?

From the look in each other's eyes, they simultaneously understood the other's thoughts.

Hopefully, Spirit Hall wouldn't be too bad...

With that thought, Yang Wudi and Niu Gao simultaneously clasped their hands and bowed toward the Spirit Hall camp.

"Yang Wudi."

"Niu Gao."

"We are willing to represent the Attack Clan and Defense Clan in submitting to Spirit Hall."

"Good!"

Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong, Ju, Ghost Douluo, the two Grand Elders, Spirit Hall's various legion commanders and deputy commanders, and the Red Bishops all burst into laughter.

Today, they had not only beaten the Clear Sky Sect into the "Rat Sect," venting their anger thoroughly, but had also subdued the Four Single-Attribute Clans without expending a single soldier.

Excellent!

Behind them, Golden Crocodile Douluo and Mighty Lion Douluo looked at the peerlessly elegant Bibi Dong atop her carriage. They could not help exchanging glances before laughing heartily and stroking their beards, their eyes full of praise.

Although the smooth success of this operation was largely due to the appearance of two veteran powerhouses who far exceeded normal standards, Bibi Dong had still played an indispensable role in it.

Excellent!

With a Saintess like this—no, she should be called Pope in advance—who lacked neither martial soul talent nor administrative skill, along with Qian Renxue, who would surely become a god in the future, Spirit Hall was destined to flourish!

Not long afterward.

The abandoned Clear Sky Sect grounds gradually became empty. Spirit Hall's army departed, binding the wives and daughters of the Clear Sky Sect and taking the disciples of the Four Single-Attribute Clans with them.

Soon, representatives from the various factions that had been observing from afar appeared in the area. They looked around, spoke among themselves, and still had shock in their eyes.

The Clear Sky Sect...

Had actually been dealt with by Spirit Hall so easily?!

And they had been dealt with so miserably.

Hiss~ How terrifying!

Recalling how Tang Xiao had been humiliated in public, how Clear Sky Sect disciples had been executed in public, and how the wives and daughters of the Clear Sky Sect had been taken away in public...

Each and every one of those events had undoubtedly left an indelible impression on their hearts.

As well as boundless wariness toward Spirit Hall!

Unless absolutely necessary, it would be best to provoke Spirit Hall as little as possible in the future...

They could not help thinking so.

Not long after, the representatives of those factions dispersed, intending to hurry home and report everything they had seen and heard today to the forces behind them.

And there was also this.

What had happened today could not possibly remain hidden. It would soon spread across the entire continent...

When that time came, another storm of change would surely arise. They needed to prepare early.
