Master Yun made the first step, and over two thousand men behind him move along. They were like a river rushing ahead.
Bu Xiangfeng, Meng Youjiang, and Lei Dongtian felt angry when they watched those men leave.
They had stayed together for several days. How could they turn against each other just because of a mistake?
Master Yun looked upset. He walked over to Ye Xiao but didn’t look at Ye Xiao’s face. “Monarch Ye, I am sorry.”
Ye Xiao smiled and nodded. Nobody knew what was in his mind. He softly said, “Master Yun, take care.”
Master Yun nodded and sighed. He then walked away.
The Yun Clan had left the Monarch’s Hall.
There were over ten thousand men watching this. Nobody made a sound.
People of the Department of Battle watched those men leave, and they were all angry.
Master Yun was the first. Master Ju followed. Master Ju sighed and started to walk to the other side.
Master Ju’s people were leaving as well.
Ye Yunduan watched Ye Xiao’s face.
He could see how frustrated Ye Xiao was.
For the first time, Ye Yunduan couldn’t hide the gloating in his eyes. He said, “Brother Ye, I wonder how it feels to watch all these people leaving you?”
Ye Xiao blandly said, “I have no special feelings. I must let go of whatever that doesn’t belong to me. It is the right thing to do!”
“How open-minded, Brother Ye!” Ye Yunduan looked at him and said, “Don’t you feel upset? Frustrated? Your men are leaving. I don’t see why you should embrace this!”
Ye Xiao smiled and slightly shook his head to Ye Yunduan.
His eyes were full of disappointment. He said, “When you wear a mask long enough, it becomes your face!”
Ye Yunduan humphed and stopped talking with both of his hands behind his back.
As the Ju Clan left, Master Song was still thinking about something, keeping his head low. Master Qin kept urging him, and he eventually moved with a sigh.
“Old Song!”
Master Guan abruptly shouted. His voice wasn’t as clear as usual but hoarse.
Master Song turned around and looked at Master Guan. Master Guan was shaking, staring back at Master Song.
Master Guan was breathing heavily, and his face seemed to have more wrinkles.
“Old Guan, we were wrong!” Master Song said. He didn’t dare to look at Master Guan’s eyes. He turned over, and said, “It is time to go.”
“No!” Master Guan suddenly shouted. “We are not wrong! I have no idea why it came to this, but the Bloodline Jade Plate is never wrong!”
“We have worked so hard! Somebody showed up and said we were wrong! Why should we listen?”
Master Guan shouted and said, “The Bloodline Jade Plate is an instruction of the Great Ancestor! It is an instruction of our clan! We are not wrong! There is something wrong here!”
Master Qin said in a solemn voice, “Old Guan, stop this nonsense! The truth is before our eyes. You can’t deny it! Master Changqing is the descendant of the Great Ye Clan. Our ancestors proved it! We all recognized it! Don’t be silly!”
“I don’t believe it!” Master Guan raged up and said, “What did the Bloodline Jade Plate show us? Was it wrong?”
“The Bloodline Jade Plate doesn’t prove anything! Master Changqing is the true descendant of the Great Ye Clan. He is the man the seven clans have been waiting for!” Master Qin frowned and said, “Everything about Master Yunduan proves him the descendant of the Great Ye Clan! That is the truth!”
“I haven’t received the message from the ancestor of my clan. I won’t leave without his order!” Master Guan was shaking, and he refused to move.
“Why do you have to get a message from the ancestors?” Master Qin was impatient. “Old Guan, we all see the truth. Why do you have to be so stubborn?”
“Stubborn? I am simply insisting on my principle!” Master Guan said to the other old masters and said, “You noticed the sign on the Bloodline Jade Plate first, and you wanted me to do this!”
“Didn’t you tell me to support this young man?”
“Didn’t you tell me to treat this young man as our nephew? Didn’t you want me to care for him and help him?”
“Didn’t you say that the Guan Clan will make the first move and become a part of the young man’s organization.”
“Here I am. I have devoted everything my clan has to the Monarch’s Hall!”
Master Guan was angry and sad. He said, “I watched the Monarch’s Hall grow. I have seen it develop into a great force today!”
“I watched Ye Xiao, a level-two Faery Origin Stage shrimp, become a level-six Divinity Origin Stage cultivator within half a year!”
“I saw him getting through all the difficulties, struggling under the oppression of those powerful forces. I know how the Monarch’s Hall developed!”
“I witness everything here. I felt his struggles. His efforts. His sadness… I can still feel it! I didn’t believe a young man could do this in such a short time.”
“I am impressed. I am happy for him. I think I have met the right man. I think the Seven Golden Lotuses are going to rise again!”
“I watched him. I cared for him. I worried about him. I felt happy for him. It is like I was watching my own child improving step by step! Do you understand how happy that feels?”
“I still feel it!”
“I have given all I have to this place. I love this place. I want to keep it going. However, you told me this was wrong! Now you want me to leave this place and join the other side!”
Master Guan shouted and said, “Are you all morons? Can’t you at least think clearly?”
“Whenever I went back and told you how things were going in this place, you all praised and applauded for it. What did you say? ‘He is the descendant of the Great Ye Clan indeed! How incredible!'”
“Now you changed. Just like that! You changed easily!”
“What is this? This is betrayal! This is dishonorable! This is infidelity!”
Master Guan angrily shouted. His voice was like a thunderclap, striking everybody’s ears.
