Chapter 1815: Chapter 1815: Stirring Up Trouble, Turmoil at the Xu Family! (6/7)
Ning Chenxin left the Dark Domain base alone and headed toward the Buddhist Sect’s ruins.
He didn’t allow anyone else to accompany him.
Xu Yeming and Netherworld King also left successively.
Before the Chaos Divine Dynasty Core Land opened, they had to complete this task as soon as possible.
After gathering intelligence, Xu Yeming and Mu Fusheng speculated that since the Immortal Realm would begin operations when the Core Land opened,
then the Xu Family and Xuanyuan Clan rebels connected to the Immortal Realm would most certainly synchronize their attacks with the Immortal Realm’s timeline.
If that’s the case...
The rebels from the Xu Family and Xuanyuan Clan would certainly make major moves prior to the opening of the Chaos Divine Dynasty Core Land to coordinate actions with the Immortal Realm.
This was their last chance—once the opposing side acted, it would be too late.
On the journey.
The surrounding scenery blurred past like the wind.
Xu Chen glanced at Xu Yeming and asked in a deep voice, "How are you planning to approach the investigation?"
Xu Yeming recalled the chilling aura Xuanyuan Zixi had revealed in the ruins, along with the icy blue patterns, and explained this characteristic, saying, "There isn’t much time, so we need to keep things simple and direct."
Simple and direct?
Hong Ying had a bad feeling.
Blackie, however, lit up with excitement.
Xu Yeming shrugged and spoke casually, "It just so happens that Xu Luo’s personality is set to be extremely arrogant and dismissive of others. I’ll leverage that setup by staking the Sun and Moon Token as a wager, then mocking those enemies of the Xu Family. That way, I’ll provoke them into sparring with me—if they beat me, they get the token."
Xu Chen’s eyes widened. "You’re going to challenge the entire Xu Family direct lineage?"
Although the Xu Family’s direct lineage was somewhat lacking in fresh talent, it was still a top family.
Plus, due to the battle for the Sun and Moon Token, many experienced members with higher realms had returned to the family from their external training.
"Wouldn’t that expose your abilities?" Xu Chen reminded. "Bear in mind, your Beast Taming abilities as Xu Yeming are no secret within the Xu Family."
Xu Yeming shrugged again and replied, "Who says I have to use Beast Taming?"
It’s a good time to try out the cultivation technique given by Xuan Master.
Over the past days, Xu Yeming had been refining Eight Desolate Ruins without any slack.
Along the way.
Xu Chen pondered deeply about how Xu Yeming planned to challenge the entire Xu Family direct lineage without utilizing Beast Taming or the Classic of Mountains and Seas abilities.
Thinking on the matter for the entire journey, they returned to the Xu Family.
Xu Yeming had naturally disguised himself as Xu Luo.
"Xu Luo" and Xu Chen returned, and a few elders personally welcomed them, directly escorting them to meet the Xu Family Clan Leader, Xu Cang Yuan.
Xu Cang Yuan stared at "Xu Luo" and asked, "You acquired the Sun and Moon Token—why didn’t you return directly to the family?"
Xu Yeming had already anticipated this question. His expression suddenly turned angry, his teeth clenched as he replied, "Clan Leader, you don’t know—within the ruins, the Xuanyuan Clan suddenly attacked me and nearly took my life.
The elders outside the ruins weren’t aware of this incident. I feared the opposing side would seize the initiative and directly snatch the Sun and Moon Token, so I left the ruins with Xu Chen to safeguard it.
By doing so, we deceived the Xuanyuan Clan, leading them to believe the elders had already escorted us away."
Xu Chen twitched his brow but, meeting Xu Yeming’s gaze, bit the bullet and nodded, "The Xuanyuan Clan did indeed make a move against us."
These words had no loopholes.
After all, the Xu Family had already speculated that the Xuanyuan Clan might attack them for the Sun and Moon Token.
Moreover, the Xu Family had instructed those entering the ruins to be wary of the Xuanyuan Clan and to disqualify them from the competition, if necessary.
Xu Cang Yuan exhibited no doubt, instead smiling and nodding approvingly, "Not bad—showing courage and strategy is befitting of an heir to this position."
Afterward, Xu Cang Yuan patted Xu Yeming on the shoulder and said, "Focus on cultivating and prepare for the opening of the Chaos Divine Dynasty Core Land. Over these coming days, refrain from leaving the Xu Family—external forces are keeping a close eye on the Sun and Moon Token."
With that, he turned and swiftly exited.
Once Xu Cang Yuan had departed.
Xu Yeming and Xu Chen also left the main hall.
"Don’t you find Xu Cang Yuan a little suspicious?" Xu Yeming asked via voice transmission.
Xu Chen frowned. "You’re suspecting him because he has a grudge against your father?"
Xu Yeming rolled his eyes and replied, "You’re usually pretty sharp—why are you so dense now? Think carefully—how did Xu Cang Yuan rise to become Clan Leader?"
Xu Cang Yuan ascended to the position by forcing Xu Canghai out.
That happened just as a shift occurred within the Xuanyuan Clan.
Xu Chen quickly understood, furrowing his brows further, "Are you suggesting the rebels took advantage of that moment of vulnerability?"
Xu Yeming nodded, "If the guess is correct, then who gained the most from that event?"
Xu Chen didn’t respond aloud.
But both of them knew the answer clearly.
The answer was Xu Cang Yuan.
Xu Chen said, "There’s no solid evidence for this yet."
After all, Xu Cang Yuan was the current Clan Leader of the Xu Family, and any mishap involving his name at this juncture would spell a fatal blow to the family.
"We’ll find out soon enough," Xu Yeming replied with narrowed eyes. As they arrived at the Xu Family’s martial arena, nearly all the younger generation of the family had gathered there.
"For now, let’s take care of the task at hand."
Xu Chen watched as Xu Yeming strode confidently toward the crowd gathered around the martial arena, feeling a twinge of apprehension.
Was Xu Yeming really going to go through with this?
If he couldn’t use Beast Taming and the Classic of Mountains and Seas techniques, how did he intend to face so many talented youths of the Xu Family?
Though Xu Yeming’s talent was unparalleled,
some among this group had cultivated for much longer and naturally held higher realms.
Xu Chen hurriedly caught up with him.
Curiosity overtook him as he watched Xu Yeming step into the throng of people.
The surrounding crowd extended either genuine or feigned greetings upon seeing Xu Yeming’s arrival.
"Xu Luo," as the heir to the family, still commanded a degree of respect.
Xu Yeming wore a faint smile and asked, "How many of us have obtained the Sun and Moon Token?"
The crowd exchanged glances before responding.
The total came to four Sun and Moon Tokens.
That was already considered an admirable achievement.
"Does anyone else want a Sun and Moon Token?" Xu Yeming chuckled, raising the black-iron colored token high into the air.
Those who hadn’t yet obtained a token displayed peculiar expressions.
Xu Qing, who also lacked a token, stared fixedly at the one in Xu Yeming’s hand.
After all,
who wouldn’t want something that could alter their destiny?
Seeing that the direct lineage members who had already acquired tokens showed little interest,
Xu Yeming grinned and added, "And how about the heir position—does anyone want it?"
As all eyes, filled with shock and curiosity, converged on him,
Xu Yeming’s next words sent waves of disbelief through the martial arena!
"I’ll give you a chance. If you can defeat me, the Sun and Moon Token is yours—not only that, but I’ll abdicate as heir and let someone else take the position... Furthermore, you don’t need to suppress your realm. How about it?"
