Chapter 957: Chapter 75: Threatening with Lives

The last time Four Symbols City was besieged by the Demon Army, Changsun Guishou wasn’t around to intervene, so nothing happened.

But now, Changsun Guishou has received a plea for help from Changsun Gongyang, revealing that these years Yue Potian has enslaved him. After things have been exposed, Yue Potian now wants to flatten Four Symbols City.

Changsun Guishou couldn’t swallow this anger; he absolutely won’t let Yue Potian act recklessly.

Upon hearing this, Yue Potian’s expression changed drastically. Back then, he spent immense resources and manpower to bribe officials from the Divine Clan, concealing the matters regarding the Sky Witch Clan.

This time, Changsun Guishou appeared, and for some reason, his cultivation has considerably improved. But what truly concerned Yue Potian wasn’t Changsun Guishou’s strength, rather the master behind Changsun Guishou.

Most Holy Beasts, due to their proud nature, refuse to be enslaved by humans, which was why Yue Potian was determined to eliminate the Sky Witch Clan.

Within the Sky Witch Clan, there were Abnormal Persons who could contract Holy Beasts. If their powers grew strong enough, even Yue Potian might face the threat of forced contracting.

So when Yue Potian witnessed the role the Sky Witch Clan played during the Demon Clan invasion, he resolved to annihilate the Sky Witch Clan at all costs.

This led to the later massacre of the Sky Witches.

But among Holy Beasts, exceptions do exist.

Such as the Chenwu Clan, from Changsun Gongyang’s management of Four Symbols City, one can glimpse the Chenwu Clan’s natural inclination to be close to the Human Race. Their Nine Turtle Technique is the only Dark Skill among Holy Beasts not forbidden for humans to cultivate.

Changsun Guishou himself had been contracted. It’s also due to his status as a Contracted Beast that the Chenwu Clan became one of the weakest in strength among Holy Beasts, yet not weak in status.

He is the only Holy Beast among them that carried the Creator God for hundreds of years, known as the so-called First Holy Ride under God’s Chariot.

Changsun Guishou’s Nine Turtle Technique was divine skill bestowed by the Creator God in appreciation for his worthy service in carrying.

Changsun Guishou indeed had that capability to inform the Creator God about the Sun Dragon Clan’s scheming to amend the cease-fire agreement, intending to sacrifice the Star Plane and split governance with the Demon Clan. Once exposed, it resulted in the Sky Witch Clan being massacred by the Man Clan.

"Yue Potian, you and I have been clan leaders of the Holy Beast Clan for thousands of years. I don’t wish to tear faces with you; you have broken through the Immortal Realm, advancing to the Divine Clan.

If a little grudge causes widespread destruction, making Four Symbols City restless, missing the opportunity to become part of the Divine Clan, wouldn’t that be a pity? You spare Four Symbols City and the people within, and I’ll pretend today’s events never happened, the secret of the Sky Witch Clan will never see daylight," Changsun Guishou stroked his goat beard. In terms of strength, he was still inferior to Yue Potian, and considering the Chenwu Clan co-governs the Moon Plane with the Sun Dragon Clan, he didn’t want to tear faces.

The Sky Witch Clan has been dead for many years; their grievances will just drift away.

"Impossible, the Human Race is lowly, making me lose face in the clan, and becoming mortal enemies with Qingyuan Realm. Our clan’s Sect Leader Yue Nian openly defied the Holy Beast Clan’s rules, colluding with the Human Race, and publicly betrayed the clan, committing heinous crimes. If our Sun Dragon Clan doesn’t cleanse its domain, would we not be ridiculed by Ten Thousand Clans," Yue Potian sneered, glancing at Yue Jinghua and Yue Nian, who were staring at him angrily from the city wall. "I can refrain from flattening Four Symbols City, as long as you hand over the Yue Nian couple along with Yue Jinghua, then I will withdraw the troops. How about it, Changsun Guishou, did you hear me clearly? It’s only three people in exchange for the lives of all the people of Four Symbols City; it’s quite a worthwhile trade."

Yue Potian harbors the greatest hatred for Yue Jinghua and Lie Rou, the mother-son duo.

These two despicable women of the Human Race, one made him lose face, and the other led Yue Nian to forsake the Sun Dragon Clan.

They are indeed the main culprits behind today’s situation.

Whether Four Symbols City remains or not is unimportant, Yue Potian wants to capture Yue Jinghua and investigates whether the spiritual imprint removed from Yue Nian involves the Soul Refining Technique.

As for Yue Nian, his blood contains the precious lineage of the Golden Dragon Clan. As long as the Soul Separation Skill is used again on him, he will continue to obey Yue Potian’s every command.

Changsun Guishou hesitated; Yue Potian had already made significant concessions, yet he was unwilling to hand over those three people.

Last time, when encountering Lie Rou in Huasha City, Changsun Guishou discovered the Zigui Pill on Lie Rou, which represented the highest realm of the Nine Turtle Technique, a level he himself has never cultivated to.

An ordinary person from the Human Race managed to cultivate into the Nine Turtle Technique, thus Changsun Guishou wished to take Lie Rou as a disciple.

Being elderly now, he wanted to find a successor for the Chenwu Clan, and Lie Rou had been positioned as a suitable candidate.

Changsun Guishou eventually, being well-aged with many tricks, coughed twice: "Yue Potian, I’ve stated before, you can’t touch Four Symbols City or its citizens. These three members of the Yue Family currently reside within Four Symbols City, so they’re considered residents of Four Symbols City. As long as they remain in Four Symbols City, you mustn’t harm them. You, as a clan leader, shouldn’t forget your own words."

Yue Potian frowned sharply, but said: "Fine, Changsun old man, I’ll do you a favor, but I also have a condition. As long as they stay in Four Symbols City, I won’t kill them, but what if they leave Four Symbols City?"

"That goes without saying, if they leave Four Symbols City, that’s no longer Four Symbols City’s concern," Changsun Guishou replied without hesitation.

In such life-or-death matters, as long as the three members of the Yue Residence have any sense, they wouldn’t leave Four Symbols City.

Yue Potian can’t possibly wait outside Four Symbols City for a lifetime to kill those three.

Yet Yue Potian insidiously smirked; he, a dignified Dragon Clan patriarch, on the Dimension Battlefield, was dealt with cunning tricks by Yue Jinghua and Yue Nian, causing heavy losses to his soldiers.

If this rage isn’t vented, he’d be unworthy of the Sun Dragon Clan.

"Agreed then," Yue Potian suddenly waved his hand, and behind him, Yue Xi along with a Holy Dragon Rider escorted two individuals.

Upon seeing the two clearly, Yue Nian, Yue Jinghua, and Lie Rou were all mentally shocked.

"Minzhi (Brother)," Yue Jinghua, upon hearing Yue Potian agree readily not to kill their trio, sensed an ominous premonition.

She didn’t trust that Yue Potian would so easily let them off.

Meanwhile, Yue Jinghua harbored concerns for Yue Minzhi, who had been captured by Yue Potian. Whether at the celebration feast or in the recent attack, Yue Minzhi had not appeared.

Sure enough, Yue Potian had reserved a contingency plan.

No killing if not leaving Four Symbols City, but inevitable killing upon leaving.

In his possession, Yue Potian holds a deadly device forcing the three to leave the city.

The individuals pinned by Yue Xi included Yue Minzhi and another, being none other than the city lord of Huasha City, Ye Huacheng.
