Chapter 2565: Tossed out of the Clan
Shangguan Mu’er stiffened slightly when she heard the young star lord’s words. She stared at the young star lord in disappointment and sighed gently. “The Nine Brilliance Star Lord is renowned, a supreme figure in the Saints’ World, revered by all. But I never thought that his foster son would be like this. Young star lord, you have disappointed me far too much. You are not worthy of being the Nine Brilliance Star Lord’s son.”
The young star lord’s eyes turned cold from that. He immediately slammed the table. “How dare you speak ill of me! Shangguan Mu’er, do you really think that I’m afraid of touching you just because you’re the successor of the Third Ancestor? If you anger me, do you believe that I only need a single sentence to make you kneel before me, where your life will be in my hands?”
The young star lord was extremely furious. Who was he? He had once been someone that everyone would butter up to no matter where he went, yet he had been looked down upon again and again now that he had come to the Tian Yuan clan. He felt like he had been disrespected. He struggled to accept this.
Shangguan Mu’er sighed again. “Young star lord, you’re too much of a wastrel. You need to understand that you’re only a Godking, and all your glory comes from the Nine Brilliance Star Lord. Without the Nine Brilliance Star Lord, you’re only a cultivator with a little talent. Is there any need for you to be so arrogant?”
Shangguan Mu’er did not become angered for the Nine Brilliance Star Lord’s sake because she had heard from the Wind Ancestor of the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound that the Nine Brilliance Star Lord had indeed been on good terms with the Third Ancestor.
However, Jian Chen was not as forgiving at Shangguan Mu’er. The young star lord’s words had completely infuriated him. His eyes were icy-cold as killing intent appeared. He said coldly, “Make Mu’er kneel? Hold Mu’er’s life in your hands? I don’t believe you have that capability.” Jian Chen had already arrived before the young star lord as he said that. He directly grabbed the young star lord by the neck and said, “My Tian Yuan clan does not welcome you. Piss off.”
With that, Jian Chen tossed the young star lord away in an extremely brutal manner.
The young star lord was unable to resist at all. He was thrown high into the air, flying directly over the walls of the Tian Yuan clan before landing on the ground outside in an extremely miserable state.
“Young master!” The expression of the young star lord’s bodyguard changed drastically. He glared at Jian Chen before leaving the Tian Yuan clan in a flash.
“Mu’er, you shouldn’t have come. The young star lord is a wastrel, and by the looks of him, he’s extremely lustful. Now that he has seen you, he’ll probably never forget about you and stop at nothing because of you,” Jian Chen turned around and said to Shangguan Mu’er after tossing the young star lord out. It was as if he had just completed a task not worth mentioning.
Shangguan Mu’er sighed gently. She was extremely disappointed. “I only came to see the young star lord because of the close ties my master had with the Nine Brilliance Star Lord. After all, no matter how you look at it, the young star lord is the Nine Brilliance Star Lord’s son. But I never thought he would actually be such a person. It was my miscalculation.”
“Young master, are you fine?” The young star lord’s bodyguard, Mu Lin, carefully helped the young star lord up from the ground outside the Tian Yuan clan. His face was sunken and killing intent surged in his heart.
The young star lord possessed such great status, yet he had been tossed out by the patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan. In Mu Lin’s eyes, a humiliation so great could only be settled with blood.
The young star lord said nothing. He stared at his dusty, luxurious robes. Currently, he was rather stunned.
“Hmm? Who’s that? It looks like he was thrown out of the Tian Yuan clan…” At this moment, a discussion broke out. Nearby, a luxurious carriage slowly pulled past. The voices of a few young people rang out from it.
These people were all envoys sent from large clans or organisations across the Cloud Plane to visit the Tian Yuan clan.
Such people would basically appear at the entrance of the Tian Yuan clan daily.
“And there’s someone injured. It looks like the two of them aren’t welcomed by the Tian Yuan clan…”
“They probably broke some rule set down by the Tian Yuan clan, which was why they were taught a lesson by the experts of the Tian Yuan clan.”
“Hmph, you can tell with a single glance that the two of them aren’t from our Cloud Plane and that they had no idea that they should not offend the Tian Yuan clan. They tried to abuse their background and status against the Tian Yuan clan and were punished as a result…”
“Who do they think they are, to even disrespect the Tian Yuan clan? There’s no one who can protect them for doing something like that to our Tian Yuan clan…”
The carriage slowly pulled away, but the young star lord heard every single word that was uttered. In particular, when the young star lord heard their contemptful scoffs taking him lightly, he found it to be jarring to the ear.
Like needles, the discussion stabbed at the young star lord deeply, causing him to tremble uncontrollably.
“The Tian Yuan clan! The Tian Yuan clan!” the young star lord said through gritted teeth. He looked back at the Tian Yuan clan as killing intent filled his eyes.
Afterwards, he turned around and left. He left the Dong’an province. He left the Pingtian Empire.
At the same time, the Gentle Breeze Ancestor opened his eyes in the headquarters of the Four Symbols Alliance. A smear of surprise appeared in his eyes. “The young star lord came out from the Tian Yuan clan so soon, but it seems like something is off. Has he come into conflict with the Tian Yuan clan?”
The Gentle Breeze Ancestor constantly paid attention to the young star lord. When the young star lord entered the Tian Yuan clan, he was unable to see what had happened in there because Xu Ran had repaired some of the formations.
Only when he left the Tian Yuan clan and the Pingtian Empire did he see something from the young star lord’s bodyguard, Mu Lin. He immediately managed to infer what had happened in there.
“The young star lord has fallen out with the Tian Yuan clan. One of them has the Nine Brilliance Star Lord behind them, while the other has the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng. This… will be a difficult matter to handle.” The Gentle Breeze Ancestor furrowed his brows as the light in his eyes flickered.
But very soon, Gentle Breeze Ancestor made up his mind. At that moment, he had already made an important decision. He contacted the four other people of the Four Symbols Alliance before vanishing strangely.
“Young master, where are we going now?” Mu Ling asked carefully outside the Pingtian Empire. He had most recovered from his wound with God Tier pills, so he was basically fine now.
The main reason was that Jian Chen had not been vicious, only teaching him a simple lesson. Otherwise, his wounds would have been even more severe, and it would have been even more difficult for him to recover.
The young star lord paused. He sank into his thoughts, and he would glance past the majestic fortress behind him from time to time. His eyes were filled with coldness.
“Young star lord, our Four Symbols Alliance has already prepared a banquet to specially welcome the young star lord after his long journey. We do hope the young star lord can grant us the honor of visiting our Four Symbols Alliance so that we can fulfil our duties as hosts,” the Gentle Breeze Ancestor suddenly appeared and said sincerely with a smile.
“Alright. Since your Four Symbols Alliance is so kind, I can only disturb you then.” The eyes of the young star lord lit up. This time, he accepted the Four Symbols Alliance’s invitation without a second thought.
“It’s no disturbance. It’s no disturbance at all. The young star lord is too kind. It is our honour for you to be able to visit our Four Symbols Alliance.” The Gentle Breeze Ancestor was extremely polite. In order to ally themselves with him, the Gentle Breeze Ancestor basically put down all of his pride as a peak expert.
After all, this was a major matter that controlled the fate of the Four Symbols Alliance!
