As an ancient, top-tier Aristocratic Clan has survived for so many years.
It's normal for some people to have a rebellious mentality and want to control more resources and power, like Xuanyuan Zixi.
Similarly, some people possess an extremely strong sense of Lineage honor and are willing to pay any price to protect their Lineage, such as Xu Chen.
It is precisely because of people like these that these ancient top Aristocratic Clan have survived.
The Xu Clan has such a person.
The Xuanyuan Clan naturally had such people as well.
Take, for example, the ruins where Ye Qiubai and Mu Fusheng were located.
He was holding a jade pendant that could transmit sound, and handing it to Xuanyuan Che.
The words transmitted through the jade pendant were naturally everything that Xu Yeming had forced Xuanyuan Zixi.
After listening...
Mu Fusheng put away the communication jade pendant, looked at Xuanyuan Che, and smiled, "How do you feel?"
Xuanyuan Che's face was grim, and he remained silent.
Ji Yang, standing to the side, also looked horrified.
He never expected that someone from the Xu Clan and the Xuanyuan Clan would be plotting something like this. No wonder the other top powers haven't made any moves, while the Xu Clan and the Xuanyuan Clan have been having a lot of trivial matters lately.
Xuanyuan Che voice, "I will report this matter to the patriarch, and he will make the decision."
Mu Fusheng countered, "Sure, but you need to think carefully. What if the Xuanyuan Clan head is also the mastermind behind it all?"
Xuanyuan Che his head. "That's impossible. The patriarch has been in charge of the Xuanyuan Clan for so many years, Sword Dao has long been fixed. It is to protect the Lineage's sword. Such a thing will inevitably cause great turmoil to the Xuanyuan Clan."
If the patriarch does this, his Sword Dao will collapse, and the truth will inevitably be revealed.
Ye Qiubai nodded in agreement. "That's true."
Sword Dao is an extremely extreme path, with no distinction between good and evil; it is simply about following one's heart and acting in accordance with one's will.
If the path that follows goes against one's true nature, then the Sword Dao will inevitably be unable to continue to grow... Moreover, in severe cases, it may even lead to the collapse of the Sword Dao.
Mu Fusheng: "..."
Okay, it's my fault for not knowing anything about you sword cultivators.
"If that's the case, what are you going to do next?" Mu Fusheng asked.
Xuanyuan Che at Ye Qiubai and Mu Fusheng, then said, "Your junior brother's goal should be to avenge his father and clear his name, right? If that's the case, then we should have a common enemy."
"Perhaps we can cooperate? I'll help you find the mastermind and eliminate them; that would be a win-win situation. The patriarch should also help clear Xu Canghai's name then."
Moreover, and more importantly, this way there's no need to be enemies with a monstrous swordsman like Ye Qiubai, which is exactly what Xuanyuan Che wanted.
Ye Qiubai and Mu Fusheng exchanged a glance and smiled.
Perhaps, those rebels never even dreamed of this.
They were able to cooperate with the guardian of the ruins and obtain all the information about the Xu Clan and the Xuanyuan Clan from the old man, thus exposing their rebellion plan.
After all, what normal person would do that?
Xuanyuan Che breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the Sun and Moon Token on the stone platform and said, "Now, shouldn't we compete for the Sun and Moon Token?"
Only he, Ji Yang, Ye Qiubai, and Mu Fusheng were present.
Ye Qiubai said, "I don't need it. The inheritance of the Azure Cloud Sword Master includes an Azure Cloud Token Azure Cloud Token, which will allow me to enter the core area."
Ji Yang glanced at Mu Fusheng, then decisively took a step back.
I couldn't beat this guy before, and although he's made some progress now, Mu Fusheng is also improving, so I'm not going to lose face.
Xuanyuan Che looked at Mu Fusheng.
After thinking for a moment, Mu Fusheng took out hundreds of talismans and dozens of array scrolls from his spatial ring, and smiled, saying, "I don't think it's necessary to fight, but if you think it's necessary, then let's give it a try."
Xuanyuan Che's brow twitched.
Each of these hundreds of talismans reached the level of the Lord Divine Realm, and the array scrolls were equally difficult to handle.
No, you're that rich?
Why carry so many high-level talismans and array scrolls when you're out and about?
Moreover... Ye Qiubai is his senior brother.
Ye Qiubai naturally wanted to help Mu Fusheng obtain the Sun and Moon Token.
It's fair to say that Xuanyuan Che has little chance left.
Thinking of this, Xuanyuan Che felt helpless, then looked at Ye Qiubai and said, "I can give up competing for the Sun and Moon Token, but... I want to see just how much stronger your Sword Dao is now compared to when you were at the Cangxuan Academy."
Previously at the Cangxuan Academy, Xuanyuan Che had sparred with Ye Qiubai once.
However, Xuanyuan Che the Fifth-Level Lightning Tribulation back then, has now already broken through to the Sixth-Level Lightning Tribulation.
His Sword Dao has also improved significantly.
However, he knew that Ye Qiubai's breakthrough speed was even more terrifying.
They have now reached the Fifth-Level Lightning Tribulation... and in the previous trials, they even killed several Early Lord Divine Realm and one Middle Stage of the Lord Divine Realm.
Xuanyuan Che knew he couldn't match such terrifying combat power.
However... Xuanyuan Che wanted to test just how far he was from Ye Qiubai.
Ye Qiubai smiled, stepped forward, and said, " The Xuanyuan Sword should be in your hands, right? Why don't you let me see the Human Emperor's Sword of your Xuanyuan Clan?"
Xuanyuan Che frowned. " The Xuanyuan Sword is indeed in my hands, but crushing it with a weapon is not what I want to do."
Without a word, Ye Qiubai took out the Azure Cloud Sword and looked at Xuanyuan Che, asking, "Really not taking it?"
Xuanyuan Che's lips twitched.
Although the sword in Ye Qiubai's hand was restrained, the mere wisp of Sword Qi it emitted made him feel as if his Sword Dao was being completely suppressed.
Xuanyuan Che understood why Ye Qiubai had been able to kill several powerful experts at the Lord Divine Realm in succession...
Seeing this, Xuanyuan Che obediently took out a long sword with a golden dragon pattern.
The moment the longsword was drawn, an Human Emperor power emanated from Xuanyuan Che, shaking the surrounding area!
Ye Qiubai felt a weight on his shoulder; the Human Emperor Sword Intent seemed to want him to kneel.
Ye Qiubai let out a cold snort, Power of Rules of Sword Dao swept out overwhelmingly, and Sword Domain rose!
No other swordsman's Sword Intent has ever been able to suppress him.
It was usually his Sword Dao that suppressed other sword cultivators!
The moment the Sword Domain rose, the Human Emperor Sword Intent pressing down on Ye Qiubai's shoulder was also pushed away, and the two were evenly matched, neither able to gain the upper hand for a moment.
This was the first time Ye Qiubai had encountered such a situation.
Despite being weaker in Sword Dao than him, the opponent's Sword Dao was not suppressed by the Sword Domain.
The Xuanyuan Sword, known as the Human Emperor Sword, seems to be more than just a pretty face.
Ye Qiubai slowly drew the Azure Cloud Sword, a smile playing on his lips.
But... compared to the Azure Cloud Sword, even the Human Emperor's Sword seems insufficient...
The Azure Cloud Sword was drawn.
That Sword Intent of Sword Dao, surged forth!
Xuanyuan Che's expression changed drastically.
The Human Emperor Sword Intent was completely suppressed!
