First Heaven!
Lei Min Domain!
This is where the Lei Clan Ancestor usually rests.
Today, however, there is one more person here— the Fire Clan Ancestor.
" Yan He is stationed at the dimensional portal. She sent me a message saying that Ao Zhantian had already taken Lin Heng there and defeated Lei Heita head-on using a spatial black hole."
" Primordial Chaos Yellow Stage, using a spatial black hole? Lin Heng is indeed breaking the rules as always."
"He possesses the Power of Origin, cultivates at an astonishing speed, and frequently uses laws that surpass his own cultivation level. I strongly suspect that he may have another identity behind him."
"I understand what you mean. I have already inquired with my father about this matter. Lin Heng has no relation to that person on the Ascenders side, and even if he were that person's descendant, it would be impossible for him to possess the Power of Origin."
"But there's still one more..."
"Heh! That's even less likely. My father told me that dealing with Lin Heng doesn't need much consideration, but we should try to avoid triggering a full-scale war with the Ascenders."
After some casual conversation, the two clan elders finally got down to business.
The Fire Clan Ancestor spoke first, "If you want to eliminate Lin Heng without going to war with the Ascenders Ones, the only way is to let Lin Heng die at the hands of the Hunt Clan."
The Lei Clan Ancestor nodded and smiled, "That's exactly what I was thinking. In my opinion, the seal on the dimensional passage has existed for so many years. If it were to loosen slightly by chance, the Ascenders wouldn't be able to find any fault with it."
"To loosen the seal on the dimensional portal, Non-Self have to take action ourselves. But what about the Ascenders? Ao Zhantian and the others are keeping a close eye on our movements."
"In a few years, it will be time for the Eight Great Imperial Clans and the Ascenders to change shifts. When Sikong Hong and the others go to change shifts, I will ask my father to help deceive the Ascenders' side's investigation. At that time, he will loosen the seal on the dimensional passage and release some powerful members of the Hunt Clan. With Sikong Hong's Heavenly Firmament King Realm, he can only barely protect himself. It is absolutely impossible for him to protect Lin Heng."
"This plan is brilliant. Even if Lin Heng is eliminated, our Eight Great Imperial Clans will still stand proudly in the Nine Heavens. Ascenders are destined to become mere foils to our Eight Great Imperial Clans."
The First Heaven, the Firmament Hall, the Heavenly Azure Wave Sea.
On the shore, an elderly man in a blue robe sat cross-legged on a boulder.
As the Ao Zhantian of the Nine Heavens Pyramid, Ao Zhantian stood respectfully behind the old man, his hands clasped in a gesture of respect.
After leaving through the dimensional portal, Ao Zhantian returned directly here, but the old man in the green robe was fishing, so he dared not disturb him.
Before long, the old man in the blue robe lifted his fishing rod, and a small golden fish, about the size of a palm, was pulled up.
"Hehe! After waiting for several days, I finally caught this Crimson Gold Dragon Fish! Wonderful! Wonderful!"
The old man in the blue robe chuckled, then put the small golden fish into the fish basket beside him and cast his fishing rod again.
Just as the fishing rod hit the water, the old man in the green robe spoke again, " Zhantian, my second senior brother has returned to the First Heaven. His return to the Nine Heavens is also for Lin Heng. In my opinion, the assassination attempt on Lin Heng by the Eight Great Imperial Clans will probably happen soon."
Upon hearing Ao Zhantian, Ao Zhantian frowned, puzzled, and asked, "I have already publicly warned the Eight Great Imperial Clans. If Lin Heng is harmed, it will be a major war between us and the Eight Great Imperial Clans. Do you think they would still dare to attack Lin Heng?"
The old man in the blue robe stroked his white beard and said with a smile, "Even if they don't take action, can't we use other people's hands?"
"Using someone else to do the dirty work?"
Ao Zhantian was taken aback at first, but quickly realized what the old man in the green robe was saying, "The dimensional portal is sealed, preventing it from connecting with the Hunt Clan. They want to use the Hunt Clan to eliminate Lin Heng?"
The old man in the blue robe nodded slightly. "Although it cannot be confirmed, judging from my second senior brother's personality, he will most likely resort to this tactic rather than having the Eight Great Imperial Clans take action themselves."
"Then I will immediately dispatch the experts from the Firmament Hall to guard the dimensional passage, in case the Eight Great Imperial Clans secretly tamper with it."
Ao Zhantian finished speaking, the old man in the blue robe raised his hand, signaling him to stop.
"No need. Flowers grown in a greenhouse can never withstand the storms of life."
" Lin Heng's Fate is beyond my calculation; Fate's not in the universe's control. I'm also very interested to see just how deep his potential truly is."
This time, all we need to do is observe.
After hearing Ao Zhantian became somewhat anxious.
"But this is Lin Heng's first time encountering the Hunt Clan, and he is unfamiliar with their combat characteristics."
"Moreover, if the Eight Great Imperial Clans were to secretly intervene, there might even be Heavenly Firmament Realm appearing."
"Currently, in the dimensional portal, there is only Sikong Hong at the Heavenly Firmament King Realm; he may not be able to protect Lin Heng."
Ao Zhantian expressed his concerns. Now, Lin Heng's safety was also related to the future glory of the Ascenders Ones, so he naturally couldn't be indifferent to it.
But he overlooked one point.
As the elder in green robes who was a powerful backer of the Ascenders, how could he not understand Lin Heng's significance?
" Zhantian, let me tell you something funny."
"Before returning this time, I met with my senior brother, and we also talked about Lin Heng."
When I mentioned Lin Heng and asked my senior brother for his opinion, he only said two words: "Interesting."
Do you understand the meaning of these two words?
Ao Zhantian shook his head blankly. He didn't even have the right to Ao Zhantian the senior brother mentioned by the old man in the green robe, let alone guess what the other party was thinking.
The old man in the blue robe seemed to be in a good mood today, and patiently explained, "This is the first time in all these endless years that I've heard of someone who could interest my senior brother."
Now that things have come to this point, how could Ao Zhantian still not understand?
Since the elder brother of the old man in the green robe was interested in Lin Heng, he would naturally also pay attention to Lin Heng.
How could someone who can attract that important person's attention and interest be allowed to get into trouble so easily?
This is similar to an ordinary person discovering something that interests them; how could they possibly let it completely disappear before losing interest in it?
" Zhantian was reckless before."
Having understood this, Ao Zhantian also bowed respectfully in apology.
The old man in the green robe once told Ao Zhantian that their senior brother was the only true disciple of their master. In his eyes, neither the old man in the green robe nor the ancestor of the Lei Clan were anything more than pawns.
Furthermore, the senior brother even had the right to eliminate both of them.
If that person is truly interested in Lin Heng, even the Lei Clan's ancestor would be powerless against Lin Heng.
The old man in the green robe earnestly advised Ao Zhantian: "Remember what I told you before, the Eight Great Imperial Clans are eternal, and no one can change that. But we Ascenders are not irreplaceable, so in our struggle against them, we must not make a single wrong move. Zhantian, you need to broaden your horizons even further."
" The Zhantian be remembered."
Ao Zhantian bowed respectfully, like a well-behaved student.
