Capítulo 1674: Chapter 981: Ask for a Hammer, Get Hammered (Part 3)

If it were any other occasion, the Family Head of the Wang family would not dare to provoke so directly. On the opposite side stood an Immortal Three Slash Dao and a Saint, against whom the Wang family would need to unleash its full potential to resist.

But now, with the Ji family wielding the Extreme Emperor’s Weapon and Gai Jiuyou on their side, and given that the other party initiated the provocation, he naturally dared to leverage the situation to retaliate.

The Barbarian King, known for his fiery temper, was instantly enraged.

“Let’s go, let’s go, we can’t fight here in the Ji family, let’s go outside and battle three hundred rounds.”

“Hmph! Ignorant brute, are you even truly from the Human Clan? Who knows if there’s Ancient Clan blood running through your veins, I’m too lazy to bother with you.”

The Wang family Clan Leader spoke with disdain, seemingly scoffing.

Fighting outside was not an option, as he could not win, but what could they do against him now?

“Saint Master Ji, Divine King Jiang, everyone is here, even senior Gai Jiuyou is waiting here, isn’t that improper?”

“Exactly, before the Ancient Clan arrives, we should set some guidelines.”

The elder of the Wang family, trying to shift the topic, began to break the current silence.

However, their words immediately elicited some agreement. Previously, these fellows from the East Wilderness always had strange expressions when asked how they planned to deal with the Ancient Clan.

Now that everyone’s here, shouldn’t they say something?

Jiang Taixu, knowing that Yao Guang Saint Master had already gone to invite Tao Yu, saw that the scene was mostly settled and spoke with a mix of strength and prestige.

“I understand your concerns. We haven’t been keeping secrets intentionally—it’s just that this matter could easily cause some misunderstandings. Let’s clarify it while everyone is present…”

Jiang Taixu’s words made the Wang family Clan Leader and many elders smirk secretly.

Afraid of misunderstandings?

They must have secretly reached an agreement with the Ancient Clan!

Those families that possess the Extreme Emperor’s Weapon indeed have this qualification, still pretending…

“In fact, the Ancient Kings who came to the East Wilderness were all killed by the new Commander of the Burning Legion, the Emperor.”

However, Jiang Taixu’s next words made everyone present, including the Wang family, who had secretly reached an agreement with the Ancient Clan, widen their eyes.

What the hell!

Burning Legion!

“What do you mean? Is the Ji family or the East Wilderness choosing to collaborate with the Burning Legion?”

“No wonder when the Great Xia’s royal lord discussed the remnants of the Burning Legion with you, you said it’s the same matter.”

“So that’s what’s going on!”

“The damage and destruction caused by the Burning Legion far exceed that of the yet-unrevealed Ancient Clans!”

“I would rather cooperate with the Ancient Clans to fight against the Burning Legion!”

“…”

The truth is, the impact of the Burning Scourge on Big Dipper was enormously significant.

Many Holy Lands and noble families were annihilated, and the surviving forces suffered heavy losses.

Many present had family members, friends, disciples, and brothers killed by the Burning Legion, creating a deep-seated feud.

In reality, at this Myriad Clans Assembly, besides the emergence of the Ancient Clans, discussing collaboration to expel the Burning Legion was also crucially important.

If the Ancient Clans help clear out the Burning Legion, ceding some vacated land to them while retracting a bit wasn’t unacceptable!

But now, Divine King Jiang opens with talk of the Emperor of the Burning Legion!

What kind of stance is this! What kind of position is this!

Even the Family Head and elders of the Wang family were speechless; goodness, is this the demeanor of an Extreme Dao faction?

Even more inglorious than us? Spit, detestable!

Even Gai Jiuyou furrowed his brow; during the Burning Legion’s invasion, he had acted stealthily, contributing to Sargeras’s assault into the forbidden zone.

He could profoundly feel the threat of Sargeras’s strength and the strange fel energy of the Burning Legion.

This is something completely different from the Ancient Clans, a fundamentally disparate Evil Path!

“Many of the Demons of the Burning Legion lack reason; that fel energy is unbelievably strange, and unworthy of trust.”

Gai Jiuyou, after all, was a leader. Although he didn’t outright denounce it, his attitude was apparent.

Seeing Gai Jiuyou’s stance, the Wang family Clan Leader promptly seized the opportunity to speak.

“Exactly, our Wang family would rather cooperate with the Ancient Clans. After all, we, the Human Clan, are also part of the myriad ancient clans.”

At this, he paused, then continued loudly.

“Once the Ancient Clan representative arrives, we can have a thorough discussion on this matter. With the Ancient King who came to the East Wilderness being killed, we owe them an explanation, and we can also discuss how to confront those evil Demons.”

The current rage on the scene did not exceed Divine King Jiang’s expectations. If not for Tao Yu’s reputation, strength, and the initial act of killing an Ancient King, they all might have tuned out.

But at this point, he sighed, speaking.

“The situation is different from what everyone thinks. The Emperor, newly appointed as the Commander of the Burning Legion, wrested control, and he has ordered the remnants of the Burning Legion to reclaim the fel energy without resistance and begin gathering to withdraw. You’ve probably sensed it.”

“Utter nonsense! How can the words of such Demons be easily believed? Surely, it’s to lull us into complacency, so they can reap all the benefits after we’ve fought the Ancient Clans to exhaustion.”

“How could the position of Commander be seized? Surely it was after their old Commander died in battle that they began employing deceit!”

But in the midst of this chaos, the voice of the Yao Guang Saint Master thundered through.

“Silence! No clamor; Emperor is about to arrive, how is this behavior appropriate?”

Nearly accompanying his reprimand, a golden bridge arced across, and two figures successively entered the grand hall.
