The Peerless Emperor-Chapter 201 - 202 Yunhai Sect

Lin Qian’s gaze did not fall upon the members of the Eight-Armed Sea Clan from the Northern Division Clan as Zhang Qi had assumed but rather on the humans among them.

Different from Zhang Nianxin of the Eastern Division Clan, the only human in their team was Lin Qian. In the Northern Division Clan’s team, there were more than thirty humans.

Among those thirty, there was one person whose aura was particularly formidable, clearly having successfully broken through to the Life and Death Realm and reached the Awakening Realm.

This person appeared middle-aged with a long beard and carried an air of arrogance, glancing around disdainfully and not deigning to give the Eight-Armed Sea Clan of the Eastern Division a proper look.

Following this middle-aged man were thirty younger men and women, all clad in white robes with blue wave patterns along the hems, similar to him.

Lin Qian was not familiar with the other states beyond the Coastal State, but...

Two states away from the Coastal State lay the Yunhai State, home to a top power that dominated an entire state, known as the Yunhai Sect.

These people came from the Yunhai Sect, a group that Lin Qian recognized quite well.

For when his mentor Wei Wushuang left the Coastal State and joined a Sect, it was this very Yunhai Sect, and the middle-aged man before him was Wu Chunshan, who had once poisoned his master and nearly led him to his demise.

Lin Qian’s mentor, Wei Wushuang, had often warned him about Wu Chunshan, even showing him his portrait many times.

Wei Wushuang had once said that with Lin Qian’s talent, leaving the Coastal State to forge his path in the wider world was only a matter of time.

If he did not know his enemy’s deeds and appearances well, he might not even know how he died when confronted, which would be a wrongful death indeed.

As Lin Qian noticed Wu Chunshan, he also saw a young woman by his side, clearly a disciple of the Yunhai Sect.

The woman had long black hair cascading down her back, delicate features, and the male disciples beside her often sneaked glances at her while she wore a proud expression, relishing the surreptitious attention with a smirk.

When she noticed Lin Qian’s gaze, she turned her head away with disdain.

"Compared to Xinxin, her demeanor is far inferior." Lin Qian didn’t take it to heart and shook his head slightly, withdrawing his gaze so as not to reveal too much.

At the same time, his attention returned to the conversation between Zhang Nianxin and the Eight-Armed Sea Clan member.

The two exchanged a conversation full of cold mockery and sarcasm before going their separate ways.

As the two groups brushed past each other, Wu Chunshan from the Northern Division Clan couldn’t help but glance at Lin Qian.

For some reason, he felt a sense of familiarity with that young human youth.

Yet, how could he possibly know someone who was an ally of the distant Eastern Division Clan?

Wu Chunshan shook his head, dismissing the thought.

Beside him, Zhang Keren, the Clan Leader of the Northern Division Clan, snorted with a laugh, "Vice Sect Master Wu, did you see that just now? Among the Eastern Division Clan’s group, there was just one human, and he’s only a Sky Breaking Realm youth."

"I’ve heard that the sea area where the Eastern Division Clan is located is very remote with no strong powers in the neighboring states. They must have just picked someone randomly to make up the numbers. Didn’t Clan Leader Zhang say that without human allies, we wouldn’t qualify?" with hands clasped behind his back, Wu Chunshan spoke to Zhang Keren.

Even though Wu Chunshan’s Soul Power erupted to keep the seawater at bay, his words still reached Zhang Keren’s ears clearly.

Zhang Keren laughed heartily, "After this clan meeting, I reckon the Eastern Division will be removed from the four major divisions."

Meanwhile, Lin Qian followed Zhang Nianxin and the rest to the front of a mansion.

The mansion was also made of Sea Blue Crystal, incorporating many metals from the seabed and integrated seamlessly with the Array.

Cultivating there could help settle the mind and spirit, providing an auxiliary effect.

"This mansion belongs to our Eastern Division Clan in Saint City. There’s still ten days until the clan meeting starts, so we’ll be staying here," Zhang Nianxin said to everyone seated in the front hall of the mansion, addressing Lin Qian.

Lin Qian nodded slightly and turned to Zhang Nianxin, "Could you allow me to make some modifications to the courtyard I will be residing in? After all, it’s really unnecessary to always carry this thing around."

Saying this, Lin Qian tapped on the Soul Device he wore for underwater breathing on his face, producing a few bubbles.

Seeing this, Zhang Nianxin and the others couldn’t help but laugh.

"By the way, Your Highness Lin, I saw you glare hatefully in the direction of the Northern Division Clan just now. Do you have a grudge against them?" sitting beside him, Zhang Qi asked curiously, looking at Lin Qian.

Lin Qian realized at once that the other party must have misunderstood something.

"Not at all, my anger was due to the human team from the Northern Division Clan, who are people of the Yunhai Sect..."

Lin Qian then briefly described his mentor Wei Wushuang’s issues and the connection he had with the people from the Yunhai Sect.

After hearing the story, Zhang Nianxin and the others also felt a surge of anger, thinking the Yunhai Sect had gone too far.

"This Yunhai Sect really is a scourge," after listening to Lin Qian’s account, Zhang Nianxin also sighed deeply, slamming his hand on the table beside him.

Seeing this reaction, Lin Qian’s eyes lit up with curiosity, "What, does Clan Leader Zhang also have past issues with this Yunhai Sect?"

"It’s not exactly a grudge; I just dislike the way the Yunhai Sect conducts itself," Zhang Nianxin waved his hand as he responded to Lin Qian’s inquiry.

"When I was young and studying in the Sect’s holy city, I considered that Zhang Keren a rival, almost a special kind of friend."

"Later, after I became the Clan Leader of the Eastern Division and he was made the Clan Leader of the Northern Division, we always had conflicts at the clan meetings, and the past friendships gradually faded. Moreover, he usurped the business interests of my division in the west, greatly constraining the development of my Eastern Division."

"Therefore, the performance of our Eastern Division has been declining, to the extent that we’re almost being expelled from the four major divisions."

"Zhang Keren has grown increasingly despicable in his methods, and all of this is orchestrated by the Yunhai Sect advising him from behind. After all, the greatest ally of the Northern Division’s human faction is the Yunhai Sect."

As he said this, Zhang Nianxin’s eyes did not hide his loathing.

However, when he looked at Lin Qian, his expression was very happy, "But with a strong ally like Your Highness Lin, I believe that even if we lose at this year’s clan meeting, we will reclaim it next time."
