Protect Our Clan Leader
Chapter 2774 - 14: Eldest Princess: Bao Sheng, Give Me the Certificate_2
The Yu Clan of Jade River is known as a Powerful Immortal Clan, hopeful to ascend into the status of a Sacred Race. However, compared to the Jiang’s of the Jade River Sacred Race, they fall far behind by a vast margin.
If Jiang’s truly intends to wholeheartedly oppress an Immortal Clan, even the Yun family may not be able to protect them.
Gold-wing Immortal Monarch’s face wavered with uncertainty: "We’ve leaked information to Jiang’s about the Inheritance Saint Diagram, might they preempt us? Their desire for the Saint Diagram is no less than ours."
"Jiang’s and us are related by marriage, so they would likely consider cordiality," said White-bearded Immortal Monarch. "Moreover, we can offer them substantial remuneration in advance and sign an agreement with Jiang’s first. If Jiang’s wants to cut ahead, they would naturally consider their reputation. Even a Sacred Race must weigh carefully before breaking promises and rules."
The other Immortal Monarchs remained silent.
Nominally, our Yu Clan and Jiang’s are indeed related by marriage, but in reality, it is mostly Yu Clan’s carefully nurtured elite daughters marrying into Jiang’s. The daughters sent from Jiang’s to Yu Clan are mostly of Direct Vessel lineage, with a few from direct descendants, and some from branch families marrying into Yu Clan’s Direct Vessel.
Seeing some hesitation among the group, White-bearded Immortal Monarch immediately said, "My maternal family is Jiang’s direct descendants; I will handle this matter. Moreover, taking a thousand steps back, we might as well let Jiang’s have the Saint Diagram than the Wang family of Jade River! If Jiang’s obtains the Saint Diagram, they will surely compensate us. But if the Wang family of Jade River gets it, they will definitely not spare our clan."
The faces of several Old Ancestors subtly changed.
The latter part of his speech moved several of the Old Ancestors.
Indeed~ Without Jiang’s intervention, the current Wang family could very well cooperate with their rural relatives. If they acquired the Saint Diagram and produced a Sacred Supreme in the future, Yu Clan’s days would be difficult.
Yu Clan’s Old Ancestors deliberated once more and finally devised a plan. If Jiang’s helped Yu Clan acquire the Saint Diagram, they were willing to offer compensation close to ten Chaos Spirit Stones from the clan estate.
However, a cooperation contract must be signed first. If Jiang’s breaks the promise, they will make the contract public and reveal the Saint Diagram site to everyone, getting all involved in the scramble for the Saint Diagram, making Jiang’s ineffective in achieving their goals.
Unexpectedly.
Just as this plan was drafted.
A Yu Clan Immortal Monarch stationed outside burst in.
His face was extremely unsightly, and upon entry, he said, "Something has happened! Something big!!"
Everyone quickly asked him what exactly had happened.
This Immortal Monarch handed over a letter to the crowd: "The Wang family of Jade River sent a Sacred Supreme with a letter inviting us to jointly explore the Inheritance Saint Diagram ruins."
Sent by a Sacred Supreme?
Everyone drew a sharp breath.
The Wang family of Jade River could even enlist a Sacred Supreme to send a letter? Could it be...done by those Wang’s overseas relatives?
And joint exploration of the Inheritance Saint Diagram ruins, what does that mean?
The Yu Clan’s Immortal Monarchs quickly checked the letter.
The letter’s wording was very courteous, mentioning how the Wang family and the Yu Clan of Jade River have been close since their ancestors, and shouldn’t let a mere Saint Diagram site cause prolonged enmity between the two families. In respect of the Old Ancestor, the Wang family is willing to offer the Yu Clan a spot to enter the site.
Of course, this spot isn’t free but requires a "management fee" of three Chaos Spirit Stones.
But that wasn’t the worst part.
The Wang family clearly stated in the letter that besides inviting the Yu Clan, they would also invite other Sacred Races, Powerful Immortal Clans, Powerful Immortal Dynasties, Heavenly Abodes, and various influential organizations to participate, covering a broad range across the entire Jade River Sacred Dynasty and the two adjacent Sacred Dynasties.
With a total of only twenty spots!
"Damn it!!" Gold-wing Immortal Monarch furiously slapped the table, "The Wang family of Jade River has gone mad?! Actively leaking information about the Inheritance Saint Diagram ruins and still daring to sell spots?!!"
This way, weren’t all their previous plans rendered useless?!!
"What do you think; could the Wang family of Jade River have guessed we’re preparing to seek external aid? So they’re deliberately releasing the news early to outmaneuver us?" White-bearded Immortal Monarch furrowed his brows tightly, deeply suspicious, "They intentionally sent this letter to us to provoke. And having a Sacred Supreme send the letter acts as a deterrent, warning us they have a Sacred Supreme supporting them, advising us against reckless actions or we’ll face the consequences. It’s hard to say this isn’t premeditated."
This conjecture chilled everyone’s hearts.
Damn it!! This could very likely be true, and the chances are quite high!!
"Damn it!! That Wang family of Jade River, they’re definitely doing this on purpose!!" Gold-wing Immortal Monarch’s face turned livid with anger, "A spot for three Chaos Spirit Stones, who would spend such a senseless fortune?!"
However, as soon as these words were spoken, the Immortal Monarchs present fell into silence.
The Wang family said it clearly, the spots aren’t a forced sale; pay to participate, or don’t pay and opt out.
Others can’t say, but witnessing the situation fixed and irreversible, the Yu Clan’s Immortal Monarchs, though unwilling, surprisingly forced themselves to accept the cost of three Chaos Spirit Stones.
After all, this is a chance to inherit the Saint Diagram!
The East Xia Divine Dynasty has been established for over a million years, and though the Saint Diagram hasn’t appeared at auctions often, it has sometimes. Records show thirty-five occurrences!
