Clan Leader: My strength equals to that of the entire clan

Chapter 384: Chapter 57 Acting, Seduction!_2

As long-term robbers around this area, the Wan Liu Half Saints naturally had their own base in Jiufang City.

Jiufang City was not that big and each piece of land was extremely precious.

Even a Taoist Ancestor might not necessarily have a large enough piece of land in Jiufang City.

Only a Half Saint could barely have the prerequisite to establish a foothold in Jiufang City!

According to Wan Liu and the others, in the depth of Jiufang City, there were true Saint Realm warriors. These Saint Realm warriors were the creators of Jiufang City!

However, these Saint Realm warriors hardly ever went out, nor was there any opportunity to see them.

Outside Jiufang City, in the Sea of Primordial Chaos, there must also be other cities.

Regrettably, the Sea of Primordial Chaos was just too vast.

Even a Saint Realm warrior would find it difficult to meet other cultivators. Wan Liu and his companions only knew of one city, Jiufang City.

The other cities had no specific coordinates!

Wan Liu and his companions planned to take Ye Fan to their base, and on their way, they ran into some acquaintances of Wan Liu Half Saints.

“Wan Liu, have you fallen so low that you are now travelling with a Taoist Ancestor?”

Wan Liu’s face changed and he secretly passed a message to Ye Fan.

These people were colleagues of Wan Liu and his companions.

Being in the same line of business, there were bound to be some disputes.

However, because the gap between the two sides was not big, neither could harm the other, so they could only gain the upper hand by verbal means.

But if anything happened, the other side would not hesitate to strike.

These people immediately aroused Ye Fan’s interest.

Robbers, they should have quite a bit of loot, right?

Even these poor Wan Liu Half Saints, Ye Fan had plundered several areas’ Chaos Liquid from them.

Now, for Ye Fan, who wanted to rapidly enhance the Chaos Pearl, he needed a huge amount of Chaos Liquid.

Aren’t these individuals the perfect targets?

Ye Fan immediately passed a message to Wan Liu and his companions, urging them to start acting.

Wan Liu feigned an angry expression but quickly composed himself. Then, putting on an act of not taking umbrage, he turned and left.

Watching the retreating figures of Wan Liu and his companions, Qian Shan Half Saint squinted his eyes.

Something was wrong. Wan Liu was not someone who could easily put up with verbal abuse.

“Go investigate to see if something has happened to Wan Liu and his company.”

Not only had their team gained a Taoist Ancestor, but he was also overly obedient, which was clearly not the style of Wan Liu Half Saints.

Soon, the Half Saint in charge of scouting relayed the news.

The Wan Liu Half Saints were reported to be secretly buying healing pills, indicating possible injuries.

In addition, a Half Saint who excelled in healing had been compensated by Wan Liu to heal his injuries.

If it were just healing pills, Qian Shan Half Saint, being cautious, might not have made a move against Wan Liu and his company.

But after obtaining accurate information from the Half Saint who helped heal the Wan Liu Half Saints, Qian Shan Half Saint couldn’t sit still anymore.

To him, this was a golden opportunity.

If he succeeded, he would not only acquire the resources carried by the Wan Liu Half Saints, but could also directly annihilate their team. There would be no one left to compete against him for business in the future.

There were only so many vulnerable Half Saints. For two Half Saint teams, each was considered a crucial resource.

A top-grade Holy Artifact required resources from hundreds of people.

If they relied solely on robbery, it would take an unknowably long time to accumulate enough.

Robbing poor Half Saints was not as profitable as robbing the Wan Liu Half Saints.

With this in mind, they began to set their trap.

Although Jiufang City was established by the Saint Realm warriors, it did not prohibit conflict, as long as they kept things quiet.

Each business was backed by powerful individuals; otherwise, it could not be run at all.

When time came, as long as they prepared the Formation carefully and concealed the sound of fights, quickly dealt with Wan Liu Half Saints and his companions, there would not be any problem.

Even if their calculations went wrong and Wan Liu Half Saints were not injured, most likely there would be a stalemate and they wouldn’t suffer any significant loss.

To them, this was practically a risk-free venture, so why not do it!

Soon, they headed to the inner city to purchase a high-grade Saint Realm Array Plate.

An Array Plate of superior Holy Artifact grade is more expensive than an ordinary one. It even makes Qian Shan, a Semi-Saint, wince a bit.

However, as long as he can eliminate Wan Liu Half Saint and the others, the investment can be recovered.

Without much preparation, once Qian Shan Half Saint confirmed that Wan Liu Half Saint and the others were home, they started their operation with his small team.

Wan Liu Half Saint and his companions, who were pretending to be badly injured inside the house, felt the formation enveloping the sky, and knew that the people they were waiting for, had arrived!

“Wan Liu, come forth and meet your death!”

Once he confirmed that the formation had taken effect, Qian Shan Half Saint no longer hid his murderous intent.

Wan Liu and his companions glanced at Ye Fan, who gave a slight nod.

Having understood Ye Fan’s intentions, their seemingly defeated spirit vanished in an instant, and they once again became the formidable semi-saints.

They were indeed injured, but it was an act put up by themselves.

All the following things were just pretend.

Their injuries had long since healed, and they were merely playing a part.

With Ye Fan around, even if they were injured, they wouldn’t worry at all.

These Semi-Saints were the first shot fired by Ye Family in the Sea of Primordial Chaos.

When Qian Shan Half Saint saw Wan Liu Half Saint and his companions unscathed, he paused in surprise for a moment, but quickly recovered.

One of his guesses had been that Wan Liu Half Saint and the others were faking it.

So, seeing Wan Liu Half Saint and the others was not surprising.

However, he didn’t completely believe in the state of Wan Liu Half Saint and the others just yet.

Maybe Wan Liu Half Saint and the others are forcibly resisting, trying to keep them from seeing the truth.

If the formation was used, even if taken back, there would still be a considerable loss.

Having come this far, he was determined to have a fight first!

“Wan Liu, let’s see if you’re really injured today!”

Qian Shan Half Saint directly swung his Holy Artifact and charged at Wan Liu Half Saint!

Wan Liu Half Saint was in no way frightened and stood in an instant against Qian Shan Half Saint.

The other Semi-Saints also took their swings, attacking their respective opponents.

In the end, only Ye Fan was left ignored.

In the eyes of Qian Shan Half Saint’s people, Ye Fan, a little Taoist Ancestor, posed no threat at all and could be dealt with later.

Boom.

The sound of the battle was extremely loud, but due to the formation, it didn’t travel far.

Even if other cultivators outside noticed the disturbance inside, no one would interfere.

In Jiufang City, battles happened all the time.

If outsiders dared to interrupt, they might provoke both parties, making it best to simply watch.

However, some cultivators who knew the truth were curious. After all, this place was home to Wan Liu Half Saint and the others. Who would dare to attack them?

The small teams of Wan Liu Half Saint and Qian Shan Half Saint were well-known among other powerful Semi-Saints.

In the past, the two teams were always prudent, targeting only unfamiliar or weak Semi-Saints who recently arrived in Jiufang City.

Even if both teams were completely wiped out, it wouldn’t draw much attention.

Inside the formation, Qian Shan Half Saint was now completely convinced that Wan Liu Half Saint and the others’ injuries were all faked.

Despite the loss of one formation, Qian Shan Half Saint decided to stop fighting.

If it continued, and if he actually got injured, things would get complicated.

Their enemies weren’t limited to Wan Liu Half Saint and his companions. Unknown forces had been watching them in secret.

If they fell, countless ambitious forces would surely act to wipe them out, for they represented wealth.

“Wan Liu, we admit defeat this time, cease the fight!”

Qian Shan Half Saint recalled several Semi-Saints and coldly said to Wan Liu Half Saint.

Upon hearing this, Wan Liu Half Saint scorned, “Stop just because you said so? Dream on!”

The confidence in Wan Liu Half Saint’s words made Qian Shan Half Saint feel uneasy.

Who could be the source of Wan Liu Half Saint’s confidence? He seemed sure he could keep them here!
