"Si She, Shen Hou! Unexpectedly, you two are traitors?!"

"Damn it! You two scumbags!"

"Why? We've been together for over a hundred years, why would you do this?"

"Why would you betray us? Why?"

The people of Yan Huang Group all watched Si She and Shen Hou with uncontrollable anger, their eyes filled with sorrow and fury.

"No, he's talking nonsense, don't believe him! The Shadow Clan, the entire Shadow Group is the public enemy of the Martial Dao World, we can't trust their words, they are trying to stir up trouble among us, don't believe it!" Shen Hou argued with a pale face.

Si She couldn't say a word; a look of panic spread across his face as he glanced around and realized that no one was swayed by Shen Hou's words, his heart quivering in fear.

Thump!

Si She suddenly knelt down on the ground and kowtowed swiftly to the leader: "Dragon Saint, I was wrong, I was tempted by the promise of enhanced strength, please forgive me, I am willing to be an undercover for the Yan Huang Group, I am willing to infiltrate Gene Organization, please give me another chance!"

Shen Hou's face abruptly changed, he glanced at Si She and helplessly shook his head.

He knew that they could no longer hide the truth.

Then, lifting his head to look at Dragon Saint, he said with biting sarcasm, "Yes, we did betray! Do you really think you can defeat the Soul Devouring Group and the Gene Organization? No! You can't win! You have no chance of winning, you have no idea how powerful they are!"

"Do you think the Soul Devouring Group attacking the imperial Jueluo Clan today represents all their elite forces? No, it doesn't! Those weren't even one-tenth of their elites; you have no chance of winning. If you're wise, just surrender obediently, I can introduce you—how about it? The organization will definitely not mistreat you, you..."

"Scumbags! You take pride in your shame and call it honor! Die!" Supreme Long Huang roared furiously. With a flash, he struck at Shen Hou with a fierce palm.

Buzz!

A powerful aura erupted from Shen Hou, matching Supreme Long Huang's strength, as he sent a palm toward the incoming hand of Supreme Long Huang.

"Venerable Realm's pinnacle?!"

Supreme Phoenix Luan and others exclaimed in shock, their expressions changed as they attacked Shen Hou and Si She, who was kneeling on the ground, together.

Buzz!

Si She's face changed, and with a fierce bite of his teeth, his aura erupted, somehow matching Supreme Long Huang's.

"Bastard!"

A furious shout rang out as Dragon Saint's aura exploded, pressing heavily upon Shen Hou and Si She.

Shen Hou and Si She's complexions changed, suddenly feeling the flow of their Inner Qi become rough.

Buzzing!

Two more forces dispersed as Emperor Supreme and Li Jiang waved their hands, enveloping Si She and the others with Heaven and Earth Vital Energy.

Bang bang bang!

Boom!

A series of muffled explosions followed, and Shen Hou's body burst open, beaten to a pulp by Supreme Long Huang and the other six!

Buzzing!

Powerful Qi Force fluctuations spread out in all directions but were blocked by the surrounding Heaven and Earth Vital Energy.

As the dust settled, Emperor Supreme and the others withdrew the Heaven and Earth Vital Energy, and Dragon Saint also dissipated his aura, with Supreme Long Huang and his group returning to their seats with grim expressions.

At that moment, Jiang Chen spoke softly: "This is why I didn't notify them in advance and ask them to come here. All eighteen of them were together after completing their mission. Once one person knew, then everyone would know."

After a pause, Jiang Chen sighed, "I don't want to wrongly accuse any of them, so, until I was absolutely sure, I couldn't reveal my suspicions. To prevent the mole from sensing anything during this battle, only after my men spotted the Soul Devouring Group did I notify Supreme Long Huang and the others to come."

"Young Jiang, thank you!"

Supreme Long Huang looked at Jiang Chen with gratitude: "Thank you for helping us find the traitor! Actually, on our way here, I had a feeling that Si She was behaving oddly, constantly complaining about why we weren't notified to come sooner, but I didn't think too much of it, only to realize..."

"Please, Senior Long Huang, you flatter me!"

Jiang Chen said in a soft voice: "In this battle, the Yan Huang group couldn't participate due to the traitor. In the next great war, you will have to be the main force!"

"No problem!" Before Supreme Long Huang could speak, Dragon Saint abruptly chimed in.

"Right! Next time, our Yan Huang group will lead the charge!"

"Yes, we'll be there!"

A multitude of Yan Huang group's strong warriors shouted out one after another.

"Alright, we'll talk about the next great war later. Let me tell you about the Shadow Clan first, so you don't treat them as enemies in the future." Jiang Chen began softly.

Everyone was slightly startled, all eyes turned to focus on Jiang Chen.

"The Shadow Clan..."

Jiang Chen quietly narrated the origins of the Shadow Clan, and their mission.

"Assisting Lord Xue?!"

"The Shadow Clan are eternal guardians of Lord Xue?"

"So they mistook Blood Venerate for Lord Xue back then?"

"It turns out to be the case!"

Everyone had a moment of realization and lamented in unison.

"Mr. Jiang, even though the Shadow Clan mistook Blood Venerate for Lord Xue and acted as they did, who can guarantee they won't make that mistake again? What if their Lord Xue appears and wishes to unify the Martial Dao World, wouldn't that stir up trouble?" Old Master Tang spoke with furrowed brows.

"Old Tang, have you gone daft?" Mo Tiancheng glanced at Old Master Tang and spoke irritably.

Old Master Tang was stunned for a moment, and defensively said, "How am I daft? Mo Tiancheng, explain yourself!"

"Didn't Mr. Jiang say it? The people of the Shadow Clan have been waiting for the new Lord Xue to appear, they only obey Lord Xue!" Mo Tiancheng repeated Jiang Chen's words.

"Right, I heard that, which is why I'm worried. What if the new Lord Xue is an ambitious individual? Won't the Shadow Clan then become our big enemy again?" Old Master Tang questioned with a frown.

Mo Tiancheng rolled his eyes, a helpless expression on his face while everyone else looked at Old Master Tang with amusement.

"What's so funny?" Old Master Tang, sensing something was amiss, asked in confusion.

Lou Family Patriarch gently patted Old Master Tang's shoulder and said with a light chuckle: "Your worries are unnecessary, Mr. Jiang is certainly not a man of ambition."

"I know Mr. Jiang isn't a man of ambition, I'm talking about Lord Xue. What if Lord Xue... wait a minute!"

Old Master Tang suddenly realized, looking at Jiang Chen with a shocked expression: "Mr. Jiang, you, when you said you instructed the Shadow Clan to investigate… does that mean… you are Lord Xue?!"

"Yes, I am the current Lord Xue! Old Master Tang, rest assured, I have no desire to unify the Martial Dao World. It's good for everyone to live in peace!" Jiang Chen replied with a chuckle.

"This..."

Old Master Tang glanced at everyone, realizing they all seemed to be aware of this but himself, and his face reddened as he let out an embarrassed smile.

"Haha!"

"Haha…"

"Old Tang, you really have gotten old!"

All the elders burst out laughing.

After the laughter, everyone discussed the arrangements for the upcoming Elixir Valley Elixir competition, and then they took their leave one by one. Zai Lun saw off each major power, offering compensation to every one of them!
