Chapter 2006

Li Tian exuded an innate arrogance. In his eyes, there was no reflection of Gu Chen.

Even though Gu Chen had fought against many people alone earlier and his battle record could be said to be glorious, there was nothing worthy of his attention. The reason why he saw Gu Chen was because he was the one with the highest cultivation among the Chen Clan cultivators who were still standing.

When Gu Chen met his eyes by chance, he immediately lowered his head, making it impossible for others to figure out anything from his expression.

"Those who don't belong to the Chen Clan, leave this place immediately!"

Li Tian said. His words were directed at the outsiders in the ancient city and the various forces who were watching the show from afar.

"Yes, Lord Li Tian."

In a corner of the ancient city, Elder Bi He of the Jade Clan was lucky to be alive. He crawled up with injuries all over his body and bowed towards Li Tian. Then, he flew up shakily and left the ancient city.

Apart from him, the two elders of the Jade Clan had unfortunately fallen in the previous chaos. Even the big shots of the various forces who had come with them were few and far between. He couldn't be bothered to confirm whether they were dead or alive.

Before he left, he glanced at Gu Chen who had also survived. His eyes flashed with hatred.

This time, he had led so many experts to attack the Chen Clan but was stopped by a mere Chen Yunfei. He had even implicated the death of two elders. He was afraid that he would be questioned and punished by the clan when he returned.

He couldn't wait to tear Chen Yunfei into pieces. However, when Lord Li Tian interfered, he realized that he had already missed his chance!

He had a rough idea of what the Mu Clan thought about the Chen Clan. The Mu Clan had always been dissatisfied with the ruling power of the Jade Clan in the Jade Dynasty.

Now that Lord Li Tian had saved the Chen Clan from Liu Sheng, it meant that the Chen Clan was going to replace the original position of the Eight Branches Sacred Grounds!

The rise of the Chen Clan was unstoppable. Fortunately, they didn't have a second Sage so the position of the Jade Clan wouldn't be shaken temporarily.

"This Chen Yunfei's talent is extraordinary. I have to kill him no matter what. Otherwise, he will become a huge threat to the Jade Clan in the future. Damn Liu Sheng, he killed so many people casually. Why is this kid so lucky! "

Elder Bi He's heart was filled with resentment. In the end, he left under the protection of the Jade Clan cultivators.

Sage Liu left, and so did the people of the Jade Clan. The situation had become clear, and the cultivators who had gathered here left one after another, not forgetting to talk about what had happened earlier.

Li Tian didn't leave the Chen Clan. After settling the issue, he flew straight into Dingkong Mountain.

Seeing his action, Gu Chen's heart tightened inexplicably. He only heaved a sigh of relief when he found out that it was the Clay Bodhisattva through Secret Voice-sending.

"Right, Great Elder!"

At this moment, Gu Chen thought of Great Elder Chen Shanming, whose life and death were still unknown. That fellow Liu Sheng's attacks were extremely ruthless. Under the circumstances of deliberately hiding his constitution, even Gu Chen was badly injured. Chen Shanming's situation was most likely not optimistic.

He hurriedly mobilized the Chen Clan's cultivators to search for Chen Shanming, while he pretended to be physically weak and sat down to heal himself.

"I don't know why Li Tian of the Shepherd Clan stayed behind. Leave this place first, and try not to alert anyone."

As he sat down to heal himself, Gu Chen secretly sent a message to the Clay Bodhisattva in the crowd, asking him to leave as soon as possible to avoid any accidents.

The Clay Bodhisattva nodded. The Chen Clan was in a mess, and it wasn't difficult for him to leave this place.

He left very quickly, and not long after, the severely injured and unconscious Great Elder Chen Shanming was also discovered.

His face was gloomy, and his breathing was weak. The wounds on his body were so deep that his bones could be seen. It could be said that he was extremely lucky to be able to survive.

Gu Chen personally checked his body's condition and fed him a healing pill. After confirming that he was fine, he heaved a sigh of relief.

Half a day later, the Chen Clan's elders who were scattered outside rushed back one after another.

Almost all of them had injuries on their bodies. Fortunately, none of them lost their lives. The Green Willow Sacred Ground still had a good sense of propriety.

After knowing that the Chen Clan Leader had failed to transcend the tribulation and was already dead, many elders were heartbroken, and some even cried!

The Chen Clan finally had a second Sage, but he was strangled by the joint forces of various forces!

Once upon a time, they dreamed that they could become the Chen Clan's second Sage and lead the Chen Clan to glory again.

However, after experiencing what happened today, they saw with their own eyes how the various forces tried to stop them from returning, both openly and secretly. All the elders felt a chill in their hearts.

Even the Shepherd Clan, who had saved them from danger, only appeared after the Clan Leader had died. The Chen Clan was like a wolf with shackles on it, and the only outcome was to be tamed into a dog!

For a few days, the Chen Clan was shrouded in a sad and depressing atmosphere.

After Chen Shanming woke up from his coma, he seemed to have aged a few decades in an instant. His eyes were lifeless, and he ignored people who spoke to him.

Everyone could understand his feelings. Although the Clan Leader and the Great Elder often had different views on some political issues, both of them were wholeheartedly thinking for the clan.

In particular, the Great Elder was older than the Clan Leader, and it was not a good feeling for them to see their son die before them.

The Chen Clan Leader's body was not found, and only some blood was found.

That day, the commotion caused by Sage Liu's attack was too great. In addition to the influence of the Lightning Tribulation, everyone knew that there was an 35% chance that he had been reduced to ashes.

Even his flesh and blood were not left. The Chen Clan Leader died a tragic death. Everyone set up a mourning hall for him, and there was an endless stream of people paying their respects.

His memorial tablet was carried by the Great Elder, and under the witness of all the clansmen, it was sent into the ancestral hall.

When the ceremony ended, before everyone could recover from their sorrow, the Fourth Elder, Chen Qinghe, suggested to convene an Elders' Meeting!

The Clan Leader was already dead, but the Chen Clan's expanded territory and interests were still there. Everything needed someone to handle.

A country could not go a day without a leader, and a clan could not go a day without a leader. It was reasonable for Chen Qinghe to request to convene an Elders' Meeting, and the Great Elder had no reason to reject.

Therefore, a day later, the Chen Clan's Elders' Meeting was held in the ancestral hall. Including Gu Chen, all the Elders and elite disciples attended!

Chen Qinghe, who suggested to convene an Elders' Meeting, was the last to enter. When he stepped into the ancestral hall, the Shepherd Clan's Sage King, Li Tian, actually followed behind him!

After saving the Chen Clan that day, Li Tian went up Mt. Dingkong and meditated on the peak for many days.

Previously, be it when they paid their respects to the Chen Clan Leader, or when the Chen Clan Elders wanted to set up a banquet to entertain him, he ignored them all, making people unable to guess his intentions.

But today, the Elders' Meeting was about to convene, and the new Clan Leader was about to be elected. He actually followed behind Chen Qinghe, and his intentions were self-evident!

The Great Elder, Chen Shanming's heart sank when he saw this. The Shepherd Clan would not help the Chen Clan for nothing. Their hands still reached into the power center of the clan!

But what he did not expect was that the Shepherd Clan's representative was actually the Fourth Elder. And the Clan Leader's corpse was not even cold, and he already couldn't wait to seize power!
