Three Factions Assemble in Half a Month to Attack the Clear Sky Sect Together!

"Second Brother... was dead?"

Tang Yuehua collapsed to the ground.

She had been searching for Tang Hao's whereabouts all this time, yet there had been no news for so many years.

Now that she had finally received news of Tang Hao, it was news of his death.

She did not know what her second brother had been thinking, or why he had gone to kill the Body Sect's young master. But as a prisoner, she knew Ye Chen had no need to deceive her.

Ye Chen had chosen to keep her, likely because of both her and that nephew of hers.

"Have you thought it over?"

"Die, or become my maid and wait for your nephew to become a god and save you?"

Ye Chen slowly rose to his feet and crouched in front of Tang Yuehua.

To him, Tang Yuehua was merely a minor diversion, something to entertain himself with.

Her life or death was not particularly important.

"Can you spare my eldest brother?"

Tang Yuehua did not ask him to spare the entire Clear Sky Sect, but Tang Xiao was her family. Even if he were crippled, that was still better than dying outright.

After all, they still had one final hope: the nephew Ye Chen had mentioned.

"You can barely qualify as a personal maid. What value does he have?"

Ye Chen could not find any value in Tang Xiao whatsoever.

As for his strength as a Titled Douluo, could he possibly be stronger than the Snow Empress or Du Busi?

Either the Snow Empress accompanied him, or Du Busi did, or three Titled Douluo followed him.

Tang Xiao was nothing more than a remnant of the Clear Sky Sect, and his loyalty alone was already a major problem.

"I beg you, spare my eldest brother's life. I'll do anything you ask."

Tang Yuehua looked down at herself.

Other than her beauty, she had no other strengths. She knew perfectly well what Ye Chen had in mind by keeping her as his personal maid.

"Pfft!"

"You think far too highly of yourself."

"Any woman I want is within easy reach. Your face isn't even among the very best."

Ye Chen flicked his sleeve and stood up.

He had no interest in Tang Yuehua. He simply wanted a proper personal maid.

He had sent Zhu Zhuqing off to the Body Sect, and Ye Lingling had been serving him in daily life. Ye Chen had always felt rather embarrassed about that.

After all, Ye Lingling was a support-type soul master. She was delicate and frail, yet she still had to do servants' work.

Things like serving tea and water, helping with washing and grooming, should have been handled by a real maid.

"Take her away. Let her out when she agrees to become a maid. If she wants to kill herself, don't bother stopping her."

Ye Chen waved his hand.

Tang Yuehua was taken away.

He had actually thought of an excellent plan: cripple Tang Xiao and make him his coachman. The siblings could serve as each other's weak points.

Why did he feel more and more like a villain? It actually felt pretty good.

"What are you grinning foolishly about?"

Qian Renxue walked straight in.

After receiving Worship Hall's reply, she had hurried over at once to deliver the letter to Ye Chen.

"Nothing. I was just becoming more and more wicked."

Ye Chen made a gentle grasping motion with his right hand.

The power of space wrapped around Qian Renxue and pulled her directly into his arms.

Then he tapped with his right hand, instantly dispelling Qian Renxue's disguise and restoring her original appearance.

"I think you're becoming more and more of a hooligan."

"Here. The thing you wanted."

Qian Renxue tossed the envelope to Ye Chen, but she did not struggle free from his embrace.

It was not their first time, anyway. Back when they had both still interacted as men, she had gotten drunk, hugged Ye Chen, and kissed him all night.

No wonder this bastard had not split her alive with an axe. So he had known all along that she was a woman.

If she had really been a man, he would probably have kicked her beneath the bed long ago.

"It matches what Ning Fengzhi said. But your grandfather was quite thoughtful—he even provided a detailed map."

Ye Chen opened the envelope and looked through it.

Aside from a letter for Qian Renxue, there was also a detailed map inside that could lead them precisely to the Clear Sky Sect.

"Should I send people too, to attack the Clear Sky Sect together with the Body Sect?"

Qian Renxue knew about the agreement between her grandfather and Tang Chen.

However, this time, she was lending Ye Chen support out of her own will. It had nothing to do with Spirit Hall.

"You want to send Snake Lance Douluo and Pufferfish Douluo with them? Aren't you afraid of exposing your identity?"

Ye Chen felt that Qian Renxue was planning to lay all her cards on the table.

Sword Douluo had seen the two Titled Douluo outside Heaven Dou City, and now they had appeared at the Body Sect residence.

Combined with Ye Chen's acquaintance with Spirit Hall's young master, Ning Fengzhi and the others would very likely suspect Xue Qinghe directly.

After all, Ning Fengzhi had already begun to guess. Ye Chen did not know many people, after all.

It was only that Ning Fengzhi lacked sufficient evidence and did not know that Qian Renxue was a woman.

"Since Ning Fengzhi has already pledged himself to the Body Sect, what do I have to worry about?"

"If my identity is really exposed, Ning Fengzhi will be my accomplice. He'll still have to cover for me and make Xue Ye die of poison two years from now."

Qian Renxue still adhered to the plan.

She wanted Xue Ye to appear to have died of natural causes, so she had used a slow-acting poison.

However, Du Busi's poison was even more discreet and could precisely control the time of Xue Ye's death.

"Do as you please. It's all just children playing house anyway."

"From beginning to end, we have only one enemy: the Asura God King."

After destroying the Clear Sky Sect, Ye Chen planned to undertake the second trial of the Nine Space Trials.

He wanted to become the first person to become a god, then find the God of Time and make him pass on his position to him if possible.

Even if that was impossible, Ye Chen still had to fuse the power of time with the power of space and develop methods unique to himself.

"I know. I've been cultivating seriously. It's just that after so many years undercover, I'm unwilling to give it up like this."

Qian Renxue's sunk cost was far too great.

If Qian Daoliu had told her earlier that her father had been personally killed by her mother...

Perhaps she would not have gone undercover in the Heaven Dou Empire, but her childhood would certainly have been dark.

"We'll act on time in half a month. Have She Long and Ci Xue come directly here."

Ye Chen did not mind adding two more Titled Douluo.

Although the two were not particularly powerful, they were still Titled Douluo and could at least serve as background decoration.

"Fine, then I'm leaving."

"Go on and enjoy yourself. Let the maid you abducted from Moonlight Pavilion serve you to your heart's content!"

Qian Renxue stood up, preparing to leave.

She had already walked several steps, yet Ye Chen showed no reaction at all. She immediately turned back to look at him.

Could this guy not tell she was being sarcastic?

He even had the leisure to drink tea. He was absolutely infuriating.

"Sister Xue'er, would you like to stay and drink?"

"You drink wine, I'll drink milk. We won't leave until we're drunk."

Ye Chen looked at her teasingly.

That was how Qian Renxue had gotten drunk back then, before hugging him and throwing a drunken fit.

"Get lost!"

Qian Renxue quickened her pace.

Although she had feelings for Ye Chen, he was still a child. She truly could not bring herself to make a move.

After raising him for a few more years, she would definitely let Ye Chen know the price of provoking her.

Half a month later.

The Body Sect's fifteen Titled Douluo, along with Qian Renxue's two Titled Douluo, had all arrived.

Shortly afterward, Ning Fengzhi arrived with Sword Douluo, while the Snow Empress also rose and stood beside Ye Chen.

She had nothing to do staying in Heaven Dou City, so she might as well visit the Clear Sky Sect and observe human soul masters some more.

"Everyone's here. Set out for the Clear Sky Sect!"

Du Busi gave the order.

Nineteen Titled Douluo soared into the sky and flew in formation toward the Clear Sky Sect.
