Chapter 841: Three Years of Cease Fire
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
For this last move, clearly Xuan Yuan Yang wanted to showcase his power to give some mental intimidation for the Qin Clan. He intended to showcase the presence of the totem Xuan Yuan Clan.
For this little intention, naturally Qin Wushuang could see it clearly. He revealed a slight smile, and did not mind it too much. Currently, the Xuan Yuan Clan was the ruler of the Xuan Yuan Mound. It was righteous and proper to showcase their existence. Since this Xuan Yuan Yang did not suppress him with a lofty attitude, naturally Qin Wushuang must show him some respect.
However, the other members of the Qin Clan could not refrain from feeling terrified. Upon hearing the overbearing voice of Xuan Yuan Yang that could almost tear the divine soul, even the complexion of Qin Xiaotian, who was in solitary training, showed a huge reaction.
As he watched the Qin disciples that ran out from everywhere, Qin Wushuang revealed a calm smile. He called out, “Everyone, don’t panic, go back to where you were.”
Qin Yunran asked curiously, “Wushuang, that person has clearly entered our mountain gate. How come there was no reaction from the mechanism at all?”
Qin Chongyang was also abnormally astonished. “This person ignored our Eight Desolate Six Directions Mountain Protecting Formation? Just who is he?”
“No need to worry, no more than ten people in the Tian Xuan Land are capable of ignoring our mountain protection formation. This person is the paramount elite warrior of our Xuan Yuan Mound.”
“Sir Xuan Yuan Yang?” Each of those Supreme Dao elite warriors of the Qin Clan inhaled a breath of cold air. A sense of reverence was revealed in their eyes.
The Qin Clan was afraid of nothing, yet the name of a paramount totem elite warrior still posed a sufficient amount of intimidation.
“It’s him.” Qin Wushuang’s smile was indifferent.
Qin Yunran and Qin Chongyang exchanged a glance, they were greatly astonished.
“What’s he doing here?” Considering how Xuan Yuan Wei was tactfully rebuffed, could this Xuan Yuan Yang have come to suppress the Qin Clan or to demonstrate his power as a warning?
“He didn’t do much, we only did an exchange.” Qin Wushuang smiled lightly and brought out the bargaining chips given to him by Xuan Yuan Yang. “Supreme Dao armor and three Supreme Dao weapons. You can take them. Whether you keep them in storage or give them to disciples, you make the call. As for the Xuan Yuan spiritual stones and earth, I will keep it because I need to use it. Also, he called for a cease fire between us and the Xin Clan. Unfortunately, he took back the Nirvana Heavenly Plow.”
Upon thinking about the Nirvana Heavenly Plow, Qin Wushuang more or less felt somewhat disappointed in it. However, as Xuan Yuan Yang took the trip himself, it was clearly inappropriate to keep it as his own. He was not afraid of anything, but for the vast foundation of the Qin Clan, he must care about it more than his greed for one treasure.
“Head Chief, how could we do this?”
Qin Wushuang conquered the Nirvana Heavenly Plow. For the goods exchanged from the Xuan Yuan Clan, naturally he should be the one to manage it.
If they were to extend their hands for it, it would appear as if their nails were too long.
Now, Qin Wushuang was no longer that young disciple from the past, but the Head Chief of the clan. Qin Yunran and Qin Chongyang possessed such knowledge of knowing who was the superior one.
Qin Wushuang did not mind, for things such as the Supreme Dao armor and weapons could no longer stimulate any ripples in his heart.
Although he wasn’t considered abundantly rich with the amount of goods he had, he was wealthier than most with his special goods. Such little goods were impossible to make him think too much.
“You two, I already have no need for this thing. Also, more or less, I have my personal collection. Now, the Qin Clan is on the rise and we need equipment. Just take it.”
Now, Qin Yunran and Qin Chongyang felt reassured and took it.
Qin Chongyang still lingered on the other matters. After he took these goods, he asked, “Previously, Head Chief, you mentioned that Sir Yang gave a cease fire promise, what is this about?”
“He intended to take back the Nirvana Heavenly Plow, he said to cease fire between the Xin and the Qin Clan. We will have a showdown in the Heavenly Emperor election in three years.”
Three years? Everyone in the Qin clan felt much more reassured. Three years time would be a very comfortable cushion of time to build up their forces.
With these three years, the Qin Clan could seize this opportunity to catch up and welcome a period of growth. Now, the Qin Clan did not lack talent nor trump cards, they lacked time. It would be a great thing if they could delay the decisive battle to three years later.
Through this incident, they were completely won over to the fact how Qin Wushuang took over as the Head Chief. After he entered the role, indeed there were great things that followed. Even the arrival of the paramount elite warrior of the Xuan Yuan Clan was incapable of making the Qin Clan bow down. When taking back the Nirvana Heavenly Plow, he had to exchange it with goods of his own.
Although this might not be an equivalent exchange, which one of the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates would not dare to offer it obediently? Only the Qin Clan dared to seize the food from the tiger and gain something. The promise to hold of the Xin Clan for another three years was especially valuable.
Everyone knew that the previous attitude of the Xuan Yuan Clan was rubbing against the Qin Clan. Now, since the Xuan Yuan Clan was willing to step out to mediate affairs, there was a definite turn of events. The Qin Clan needed these three years to concentrate on training, to amaze the world with a single brilliant feat.
Currently, the Qin Clan was waiting to explode in three years and to regain the Heavenly Emperor seat. They needed to brew a burst of energy in these three years.
After Qin Wushuang took care of all the major and minor matters, he gathered all of the chiefs. He said to them, “Everyone, now I need to head to the north for some matters. It might be as long as three to five months or one to two years. I will make it back before the Heavenly Emperor election. No matter how bold that Xin Tianwen may be, he can not defy the imperial order of the totem paramount warrior. Therefore, in these three years, the Qin Clan will hide under the bushel and conceal ourselves. Don’t go out to attract any trouble. When the three years of hibernation pass, we shall amaze the world with one feat!”
Young people were always filled with a form of vitality. After Qin Wushuang became the Head Chief, he brought much vitality to the Qin Clan. His inspiring and energetic words brought warmth back to the cold blood of the old chiefs. From time to time, it allowed them to experience what it was like to be fired-up.
As they were throbbed by Qin Wushuang’s inspiring words, each of them nodded.
“When Head Chief goes out to train, of course we shall guard our door. In three years time, the Qin Clan will release our mighty power and re-seize the seat of Heavenly Emperor!”
“Yes, the Qin Clan will get the Heavenly Emperor seat!”
“The vigorous style of the Qin Clan is eternal!”
When Qin Wushuang saw a group of old people getting inspired, he felt it was rather interesting. “Ok, everyone, I will not worry about things in the clan because of you. Tomorrow morning, I will take my leave. Everyone will work together to fight for the future of the Qin Clan!”
…
After Xuan Yuan Yang circled around the Heavenly Emperor Mountain, he returned to the Xuan Yuan palace. Inside the Heavenly Emperor Gate, Xin Tianwen’s injuries were already healed. He was also showing signs of a breakthrough.
In these three or four months, not only was he able to heal, at the same time he also sensed the Third Calamity of the Genuine Supreme Dao Stage. Currently, he was at the Second Calamity of the Genuine Supreme Dao Stage. When he was injured this time, it caused him to vaguely grasp the traces of the Third Calamity. If he could pass the Third Calamity in one breath, with all three little calamities of the Genuine Supreme Dao fulfilled, he would enter a brand new stage. It would be the middle stage of the Genuine Supreme Dao.
This was definitely an improvement to attain the next higher level. For someone at the Genuine Supreme Dao Stage that passed three calamities, it was definitely incomparable to those within the three calamities.
However, just when he exerted his strength to batter for the third calamity, Xuan Yuan Yang came without notice. He ordered him to cease fire with the Qin Clan and to prepare for the Heavenly Emperor election in three years.
Without a doubt, this order was a stern rebuke, like a bucket of cold water that poured over him from head to toe. It appeared as an order from the totem paramount warrior.
However behind this order, profound mystery was hidden. This was the attitude, a stance, and more of a hint from the totem clan.
To the Xin Clan, if they could not choke the Qin Clan to death now, in three years, unquestionably the Qin Clan would appear as an ever stronger opponent.
To the Qin Clan, the later the battle the better.
To the Xin Clan, the quicker the battle the better. The Qin Clan could afford the delay; however, the Xin Clan could not.
For these past numerous battles, the Xin Clan had consumed more of their capital. For this siege against the Qin Clan, many Supreme Dao elite warriors were sacrificed in the battle and many of their young elite warriors were also dead or had suffered injuries.
In three years, it was impossible for the Xin Clan to make up for their losses. To restore the power of the Xin Clan, they would need at least a few hundred years.
For these few hundreds of years, they must ensure that the Xin Clan sits on the Heavenly Emperor seat, or else they would have no power to back their words. With the grudge held between the Qin Clan and the Xin Clan, if the Qin Clan sat on the Heavenly Emperor seat, most likely they would start with the Xin Clan first. This was clear without saying.
Therefore, Xin Tianwen was well aware that the Xin Clan could not afford to wait.
In recent times, he was discussing with Saber Beard on how to attack the Qin Clan, and how to defeat them. Now, Saber Beard was well aware of the situation. It was the same for him to be dressing in the same pants as Xin Tianwen. If the Qin Clan dealt with the Xin Clan, he could not escape from it.
After all, when they went after the Qin Clan in the past, Saber Beard was part of it.
Therefore, Saber Beard did not dare to neglect his involvement. Considering Qin Wushuang’s monstrous performance, he felt some anxiety and terror from the bottom of his heart.
“Daoist Tianwen, what did Xuan Yuan Yang mean?” Saber Beard was extremely dissatisfied. He was not as respectful to the Xuan Yuan Clan as the martial artists of the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates as he called his name directly.
Xin Tianwen was extremely helpless. “I never expected this… For such trivial matters, is it worth having the paramount totem elite warrior come tell us? Could it be the Qin Clan went to complain to the Xuan Yuan Clan?”
“Humph, it’s useless to speak these words. Let me ask you, what is your plan? If we wait for three years, without a doubt we are nurturing a tiger to invite calamity.”
“Saber Beard, the paramount totem warrior is not speaking jokes. No one dares to resist his imperial order. Or else, in between a thought, he could annihilate my Xin Clan and turn you and me into dust. We must not defy him.”
Saber Beard heaved deep sighs. “Three years, three years…”
Suddenly, his eyes glittered as he raised his brow to ask, “Daoist Tianwen, let me ask you an honest question, how much assurance do you have against that Qin Wushuang in three years?”
Xin Tianwen opened his mouth for he truly wanted to speak some vicious words. Yet when thinking carefully, he would not dare to bluff too much as he said with a bitter smile, “If it were others in the Qin Clan, I would not even have to think about it. However that kid… Ah, he’s a devil. His speed of growth is too astonishing. I cannot imagine what kind of a monstrous figure he will be in three years!”
Xin Tianwen’s tone sounded incredibly desolate.
