Breaking Clan

The carriage stopped in front of a mansion. On either side of the mansion gate stood two simply dressed middle-aged men who appeared to be members of the Breaking Clan.

Jun Xuehan and Yang Wushuang stepped out of the carriage and, led by Yang Wushuang, headed straight for the residence of the Breaking Clan.

The two had just arrived at the gate when they were stopped by two clansmen. The two members of the Breaking Clan sized up Jun Xuehan and Yang Wushuang, saying, "This is the residence of our Breaking Clan. Unauthorized persons are not allowed to trespass!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Wushuang chuckled and said, "It's been over ten years since I've returned. Don't you even recognize me, Yang Wushuang?"

The two clansmen looked surprised, and then carefully examined Yang Wushuang.

After a long while, one of the clansmen suddenly exclaimed, "Second Patriarch, weren't you captured by the Spirit Hall? How... how did you come back?"

Yang Wushuang chuckled and said, "Haha, I, Yang Wushuang, am lucky to be back. Is my brother in the mansion?"

Hearing Yang Wushuang's laughter, the two clansmen immediately made way for him, saying, "The clan leader is in the main hall. He will be very happy to see you back now, Second Patriarch Clan Leader."

As he spoke, one of the clansmen ran towards the mansion to report Yang Wushuang's return.

Another clansman led the way, guiding Yang Wushuang and Jun Xuehan into the mansion.

"How has the Breaking Clan been doing these past years?" Yang Wushuang asked softly, looking at the furnishings of the mansion.

"Second Patriarch, although our Breaking Clan isn't exactly wealthy, we can still make ends meet. However, our Breaking Clan only has about a hundred members left." The clansman sighed, his voice filled with helplessness.

"Things will change. The situation of our Breaking Clan will soon change." Yang Wushuang glanced around and sighed.

Among the Four Single-Attribute Clans, the Strength Clan is the wealthiest due to their blacksmithing skills. The Defense Clan and the Breaking Clan, one skilled in construction and the other in alchemy, are also doing quite well. Only the Speed Clan is the worst off, as their specialties are not very useful and they are unwilling to join other sects, often needing assistance from the Breaking Clan.

Jun Xuehan, who was walking beside him, simply looked around at the surroundings and showed no intention of speaking.

The Breaking Clan's mansion is very large, with more than a hundred clansmen living there. However, judging from their simple clothes and busy lives, the Breaking Clan is now only slightly better off than ordinary people.

"Haha, Wushuang, you're still alive." A slightly rough voice came from the direction of the hall.

Jun Xuehan looked in the direction of the sound and saw a middle-aged man who looked very similar to Yang Wushuang walking straight towards them. He gave Yang Wushuang a bear hug and his face was full of joy.

"I never expected to come out alive. I have to thank Young Master Han of the Wind Snow Pavilion for this." After Yang Wushuang and Yang Wudi hugged, Yang Wushuang pointed to Jun Xuehan standing to the side.

Upon hearing this, Yang Wudi looked Jun Xuehan up and down. She was dressed in a magnificent white robe, spotless, with long silver hair neatly combed back with a hairpin. Her flawless face and aloof temperament were like that of an immortal.

Not only was he a handsome young man, but he was also very rich. Putting aside everything else, the hairpin in his hair alone was definitely not an ordinary item.

"Judging from Wushuang's words, it seems that you saved him. Since you saved Wushuang, then you are an honored guest of our Breaking Clan! Please come in, I will arrange for someone to prepare a sumptuous banquet." Yang Wudi gestured to Jun Xuehan to invite her, his voice sounding very cheerful.

"Then I'll have to trouble Clan Chief Yang." Jun Xuehan nodded slightly, said in a cool tone, and walked towards the main hall.

On the way, Yang Wushuang slowly said, "Brother, I have come back this time because I have an opportunity to change the predicament of the Breaking Clan, and I want to tell you about it."

Yang Wudi asked with some surprise, "An opportunity to change our predicament, Wushuang, what kind of opportunity are you talking about?"

After clearing his throat, Yang Wushuang said seriously, "Brother, to be honest, I have now joined a newly established force called Wind Snow Pavilion, and my position in the Wind Snow Pavilion is second only to the Pavilion Master. Now that Wind Snow Pavilion has been established, if you bring the Breaking Clan to join Wind Snow Pavilion, it will surely change our current predicament."

"And the reason I came back this time is to invite you to join the Wind Snow Pavilion. Moreover, our Wind Snow Pavilion Master is not only a young and outstanding talent, but also a person of great ability. If you join the Wind Snow Pavilion, our Breaking Clan will surely achieve unprecedented prosperity."

Yang Wudi frowned and asked, "Wind Snow Pavilion? What kind of organization is that? I've never heard of it before."

Although the Breaking Clan was not doing well, they were not isolated from the world. Yang Wudi knew a little about what was happening on the continent, but he had never heard of the name Wind Snow Pavilion.

"Our Wind Snow Pavilion has not yet been established, so you naturally haven't heard of it. If your Breaking Clan were to join now, you would become Veteran Level member of our Wind Snow Pavilion in the future. And I am very sincere in my offer." Jun Xuehan said calmly, with her hands behind her back.

"It's not established yet? You're very sincere?" Yang Wudi frowned, then relaxed and said, "Let's go to the main hall to discuss this matter in detail and see what kind of sincerity you mean. But you can rest assured that even if we can't reach an agreement, you are still a distinguished guest of our Breaking Clan."

As he spoke, Yang Wudi waved his hand, indicating that the clansmen could go back. He personally led Jun Xuehan and Yang Wushuang into the hall.

Upon entering the hall, the group took their seats according to their status as host and guest. Yang Wudi sat in the main seat, while Yang Wushuang and Jun Xuehan sat on the sides.

"Young Master Han, you can now express your sincerity. After you have expressed your sincerity, I will consider whether or not to join the Breaking Clan," Yang Wudi said slowly, sitting in the main seat.

Because of Yang Wushuang, his attitude appeared very calm.

"I have two expressions of sincerity, but before I express them, I have a question: Clan Chief Yang, do you currently resent the Clear Sky Sect and Tang Hao?" Jun Xuehan looked at Yang Wudi in the main seat, her eyes devoid of any emotion.

"Clear Sky Sect? I once swore that Clear Sky Sect is my eternal enemy. Tang Hao, hehe!" When Yang Wudi spoke of the Clear Sky Sect and Tang Hao, his originally peaceful expression instantly turned gloomy.
