Chapter 115: The Destruction of the Long clan

"What happened?" the clan master asked with a deep frown on his face.

Taking a deep breath, the guard arranged his thoughts and explained what had happened.

Before he could finish his explanation, a resounding bang came from the mansion entrance.

"T-They’re here..." the guard muttered, his voice trembling as blood drained from his face, eyes wide with terror.

The clan master and elders, their faces grim and tense, hurried urgently out of the grand hall, every step heavy with dread.

Their carefully laid plans—using a borrowed knife—had unraveled in an instant. Failure now could spell disaster; the collapse of their clan was within reach.

’Why? Why did this happen?’ they all screamed in their minds.

A crushing weight pressed down on their chests, fear gnawed at them, gnashing with the realization that everything might be lost.

The silence after the warning grew deafening as they grappled with despair.

"How could this be?" the Long clan master thought, panic creeping into his mind—wondering how they could have failed so utterly when everything had been carefully planned.

Boom!

The Long clan mansion gate was destroyed, dust rose to the sky, and the rubbles scattered everywhere.

Watching the destruction of the gate, the clan master and elder grew tense, their hearts pounding heavily against their chests.

When the dust settled, a group walked forward wearing a smile that was not a smile. In the lead was a young man dressed in a silver robe, walking with measured steps toward the Long clan’s men.

Taking a deep breath, the Long clan master walked forward, trying to mask his nervousness with a light smile.

"Friends, who are you, and why did you barge into my clan like that?" his voice was neither overbearing nor humble.

Mo Jian did not respond as he continued to walk forward. He only stopped a couple of feet from the Long clan master and looked directly into his eyes.

Feeling Mo Jian’s piercing gaze, the Long clan felt an overwhelming sense of dread.

’How is this possible?’ he screamed in his mind. ’How could a boy at the Foundation Realm Stage-7 dare intimidate me?’ He scoffed and straightened his back.

Just as he prepared to speak, a thunderous sound echoed in the still, tense, quiet atmosphere.

’Huh!’

Everyone widened their eyes in disbelief. What just happened?

The Long clansmen were stunned for a moment before deep-seated rage erupted from their hearts.

’That felt so good,’ Mo Jian grinned while looking at the ugly expression on the clan master’s face.

"Y-You..."

"What!" Mo Jian interrupted him and looked at the elders behind him. "If you have anything to say, just say it, not because it would be your last."

"Humph! Although I don’t know who you are, don’t ever think my Long clan is so easy to bully," the First Elder said domineeringly.

They were biding their time, checking if their secret about their partnership with the evil Wailing Bell Sect would be revealed.

And if not, they wouldn’t hesitate to embark on a life-and-death battle with this group.

"Bully?" Mo Jian looked at him and shook his head. "I’m too lazy for that."

With that, he looked at Zhao Tian. Instantly, a man dragged a pig-headed woman to the front.

"You might not recognize her, but I’ll let her introduce herself."

Immediately, the Long clan master and the elders forgot about the slap and stared at the woman whose face had been beaten into a pig head.

"I’m the Young Miss from the Wailing Bell Sect. We’ve been in partnership for many years. Yesterday, you asked us to destroy both the Thousand Wealth Chamber and the Mad Lion Mercenary."

"Lie! This is all a lie!" the clan master denied with a straight face, but his heart was pounding heavily against his chest.

He knew this woman. She was beautiful and seductive, a dream of everyone, but her strength and evil sect made her unapproachable for any normal man.

But who would have expected such a powerful woman would be captured and beaten so ruthlessly that she lost her beauty?

"What do you mean I lie?" she snorted. "Your Fifth Elder is the one responsible for the connection between us."

Instantly, everyone turned their eyes to the Fifth Elder, who had a nervous expression.

"W-What do you mean... you’re lying," the Fifth Elder stuttered, averting his gaze. "I’ve never seen you before."

Even a nine-year-old would realize he was lying with his behavior.

’This fool!’ the clan master cursed in his heart and quickly said, "Please, don’t intimidate my people. Like he said, we don’t know her and have never seen her before."

"Please, leave, and we won’t hold you responsible for breaking our gate. Our patience is limited."

Watching their clan master standing his ground, the elders had their courage boosted. Perhaps they were going to escape from this mess.

The people behind Mo Jian looked at the Long clansmen in disdain. Did they really think they would buy such an obvious lie?

Since they dared to destroy their clan’s gate, they should have already known they were not going back to their clan’s destruction.

Therefore, their charade was nothing but a clown display.

"Are you done?" Mo Jian asked casually.

Before the Long clansmen could register what he meant, three protectors stepped forward, and their auras pressed down on the Long clansmen.

Whoosh!

Without speaking, they attacked at the same time.

"T-This..." the clan master widened his eyes in shock.

Even though he was shocked, he recovered quickly and shouted, "Kill!"

Since things had developed to this stage, there was no going back.

In a blink, the Long clan mansion was thrown into a life-and-death battleground.

Mo Jian came prepared. Apart from the three Peak Core Refining warriors,

There were tens of Intermediate Core Refining warriors, while the number of Early Core Refining warriors was the same.

Ahhhhh! Ahhhh!

Quickly, various miserable screams permeated the air. The thick stench of blood filled the air, blood flowed like a hot spring.

Warriors from the Thousand Wealth Chamber were rogue cultivators that had faced countless life and death situations before they attained their current cultivation.

Therefore, these clans were greenhorns compared to them.

The advantage of clans over rogue cultivators was abundant resources and complete inheritance techniques.

All these were provided by Mo Jian, eliminating the clan’s advantage.

Under their ruthless attack, the Long clansmen fell one after the other with their faces filled with unwillingness.

With the various battles happening throughout the night, many clans had already caught wind of the attack and were paying attention.

...

City Lord Mansion.

The Lord was jolted awake from his meditation and rushed to his study.

"What is going on?" he asked in a deep voice.

"My Lord, there was an attack on the Mad Lion Mercenary team, and only their leader survived. Also, the Thousand Wealth Chamber was also attacked, but they managed to kill their enemies."

"What?! What is happening?" the City Lord widened his eyes in disbelief. "Who are the attackers?"

"From what we learned, they are from the Wailing Bell Sect, an evil sect."

"What! How come? What are evil cultivators doing in my city?"

The more he learned, the more enraged he got. Evil cultivators were the enemies of the world; thus, when they appeared,

Every city would jointly hunt them down.

Yet, those beasts dared attack members of his city.

"Tell me, what did they want with them? Or is there something I’m missing?" he asked, looking at his butler.

"My Lord, according to the Thousand Wealth Chamber, the Wailing Bell cultivators attacked the Mad Lion Mercenary because of the Gold Grade Spirit Link while attacking the Thousand Wealth Chamber because of their wealth."

"Oh!" A look of realization flashed on the City Lord’s face before it was shrouded in confusion.

For such a chamber to hold such huge wealth, they must have had the confidence to guard it. Thus, what gave them the confidence?

While he was lost in thought, the butler continued.

"Currently, the Thousand Wealth Chamber is attacking the Long clan."

"What! Why?" he shouted.

He thought the chaos was already over, but who would have expected there was still more?

"According to them, they were the reason why the Wailing Bell Sect attacked them and the Mad Lion Mercenary team."

"Really?!"

This was unbelievable!

"Yes, My Lord. Apart from that, one of the leaders of the Wailing Bell Sect confessed the Long clan was behind the disappearance of people in the city in the past decades."

This time around, the City Lord did not look surprised. He took a deep breath and looked in the direction of the Long clan.

He had his suspicions, but he was not sure since the destroyed Mo clan was under his radar. But with everything coming to light,

Without a shred of doubt, he knew this was the truth.

The Long clan had never been clean from the beginning. Their clan controlled the most notorious part of the city.

Thus, kidnapping wouldn’t be difficult for them.

Before dawn, the Long clan mansion was destroyed, covered in thick smoke, with a thick stench of blood permeating the air.

All their previous grandeur was long gone. What was left were ruins marred with the blood of the fallen Long clansmen.

As people were waking up and going out for their daily work, they saw three people lying in a pool of blood at the front of the inner city gate.

All their bones were shattered, turned into powder. None of them could lift a finger and were only waiting for their death.

Quickly, various news spread throughout the city like wildfire.
