# Chapter 1314: The End of the Yang Clan
"Waiting for them to come?" The crowd was puzzled. Lin Feng and Mo Qingtian had gone to Tianyuan City alone. Could it be that they went to notify the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress? Wouldn't that be walking into a death trap?
"Senior Brother, will Lin Feng and Senior Brother Mo be in danger meeting with the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress people?" Meng Ba frowned.
"Who said they went to meet the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress people?" Tian Chi smiled, leaving Meng Ba confused: "Then Senior Brother said to wait for them to come. How would they know we're here?"
"Perhaps someone will notify them," Tian Chi said lightly, causing everyone's eyes to freeze. Then, Tian Chi stood up and said to the crowd, "Alright, this place is no longer safe. We're moving. All junior brothers, follow Ruoxie to another mountain range."
"An informant!" The crowd's eyes froze. It seemed Senior Brother Tian Chi was dealing with the informant, turning the tables against them.
Everyone stood up and followed Ruoxie. However, Tian Chi's gaze turned serious as he looked at the crowd and said, "Everyone must stay within a hundred meters of Junior Brother Ruoxie. I trust you all understand my intention."
"Of course!"
"Senior Brother, do as you must!"
Tian Chi nodded. Everything was proceeding according to the agreed plan. He turned his gaze to Ruoxie and Wang Xiao, saying, "Ruoxie, Wang Xiao, the two of you are slightly stronger. Ruoxie will lead the junior brothers to another mountain range. Junior Brother Wang Xiao will stay with me here to keep watch on the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress arrivals. Once they come, we'll withdraw."
"Understood!" Ruoxie and Wang Xiao both nodded. Then, Ruoxie led the crowd away to the agreed location, while Tian Chi and Wang Xiao remained.
"Senior Brother, forgive my bluntness, but the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress is powerful. Although we've mobilized quite a few strong warriors this time, it seems insufficient," Wang Xiao said to Tian Chi after the crowd had left.
Tian Chi closed his eyes, sat cross-legged, and said, "Of course it's insufficient."
Hearing this, Wang Xiao's eyes froze: "Senior Brother means we'll have reinforcements?"
"When the time comes, Junior Brother will naturally understand. Why ask more?" Tian Chi replied. Wang Xiao then fell silent.
By the time the second night arrived, these two days had been a nightmare for the Yang Clan. The people of Heavenly Terrace seemed to be everywhere. One corpse after another was transported into the Yang Clan, causing a thick haze to hang over the entire clan. Even those staying inside the Yang Clan would suddenly die, assassinated. When they went to investigate, they couldn't find any trace, as if no one had been there.
If they hadn't known it was the people of Heavenly Terrace, the Yang Clan might have suspected it was the work of assassins from the Infernal Abyss.
Now, in the darkness of night, the Yang Clan was eerily silent.
"Yang Ding, after tonight, the nightmare will finally end. Do you think the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress can wipe out Heavenly Terrace?" In a hall, two figures were sipping tea and discussing the situation.
"I'm still worried." Yang Ding took a light sip of tea, his brow deeply furrowed, as if something was troubling him.
"Worried about what?"
"Tomorrow, the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress will go to Tianyuan City to deal with Heavenly Terrace. Shouldn't our Yang Clan also send strong warriors? If so, the Yang Clan will be empty. If the Heavenly Terrace killers descend then, wouldn't the Yang Clan be in danger?" Yang Ding was quite worried. Although aligning with the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress could avenge them against Heavenly Terrace, joining forces with them to fight Heavenly Terrace was risky. If Heavenly Terrace won, the Yang Clan would be destroyed.
"Yang Ding, since the Yang Clan chose this path, there's no turning back. We must advance or retreat with the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress. But your concern is not unfounded. Let's go see the Old Master now!" Another person spoke. Yang Ding nodded slightly, and the two walked out together.
But just as they stepped over the threshold, a sword light bloomed in the darkness, icy cold to the bone, as if in an instant their souls had plunged into an ice cellar. At that moment, they felt as if they were suffocating, their minds ceasing to function.
With two streaks of blood appearing, a gust of wind seemed to whistle through the darkness, but it was invisible. Only occasionally, under the light, could a faint shadow be seen.
Moments later, figures flashed over. Looking at the two bodies lying in a pool of blood, the strong warriors of the Yang Clan had faces ashen. No one knew how many had been assassinated within the Yang Clan. The opponent's concealment techniques were too terrifying, formless and traceless. Whenever night fell, the Yang Clan seemed to become their hunting ground, constantly breaking down their mental defenses.
"Patriarch!" The crowd looked at the Old Master of the Yang Clan. But the Old Master turned and left with a dark face, not saying a word.
That night was unbearably long. Almost no one in the vast Yang Clan slept or cultivated. They feared that if they slept or cultivated, they would never wake up. When the east showed a hint of pale light, many even felt the illusion of crying with joy. What a beautiful day. Finally, it had come again. After today, the nightmare should end. After wiping out Heavenly Terrace, they would relocate and follow the strong warriors of the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress to the Western Wasteland.
Like many large families, the Yang Clan had an independent training ground and battle platform for testing the strength of clan disciples and sparring. Early in the morning, on the vast training ground, a gathering of strong warriors took place. The people of the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress wore majestic dragon-blood robes, appearing extraordinarily valiant, with a hint of killing intent emanating from them.
Many strong warriors of the Yang Clan also gathered there. In fact, besides the Yang Clan, there were strong warriors from other families as well, their auras surging. The crowd on the battle platform was clearly divided into three major factions.
"You're only sending half your combat strength?" A Sovereign Lord of the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress looked at the Old Master of the Yang Clan and asked lightly.
"We must leave some people for defense. You've seen the hunting over the past few days. If, while you go to Tianyuan City, a few people from Heavenly Terrace come to kill, and our Yang Clan is empty, wouldn't that be a catastrophe?" The Old Master of the Yang Clan said with a dark face.
"Moreover, with the might of the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress and the participation of the strong warriors from the Xuan Yuan family, how could Heavenly Terrace, which has only been recruiting disciples for a few years, withstand it? They will surely be completely annihilated!"
The Sovereign Lord of the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress nodded slightly and said, "Your consideration is not unreasonable. In that case, let's set out!"
With that, he stepped forward and soared into the air. At that moment, all the strong warriors soared into the sky, rushing into the clouds, drawing the attention of countless people in Tianyuan City. Was the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress going to war with Heavenly Terrace?
As the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress and its allies set out for the outskirts of Tianyuan City, the Old Master of the Yang Clan breathed a sigh of relief. Victory or defeat depended on this battle. However, with the powerful lineup and trump cards of the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress this time, along with the strong warriors of the Xuan Yuan family, this battle should be without suspense. Heavenly Terrace was doomed.
"All members of the Yang Clan, come to the battle platform!" The Old Master of the Yang Clan roared. Instantly, rolling sound waves spread in all directions. Now, gather everyone and wait for the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress to return victorious. Then they would leave, to avoid being hunted again by the people of Heavenly Terrace.
Figures gathered one after another at the Yang Clan's battle platform, more and more, all the remaining members of the Yang Clan. But at that moment, outside the Yang Clan, a vast aura shot straight into the sky, terrifying and boundless.
"Boom!" The Old Master of the Yang Clan's gaze suddenly froze. Then, all members of the Yang Clan felt this vast aura, like a ferocious flood beast about to drown the entire Yang Clan. This aura was so sharp it was suffocating.
"A Sovereign Lord-level aura!" The Old Master of the Yang Clan's face turned pale. Although he was also a Sovereign Lord-level strong warrior, the Sovereign Lords of Heavenly Terrace were clearly not comparable to him.
"Which Sovereign Lord of Heavenly Terrace has come?" The Old Master of the Yang Clan had been cautious enough, leaving strong combat power in the Yang Clan. But Heavenly Terrace had sent a Sovereign Lord to target them.
At that moment, the crowd looked up. They only saw a sword light charging into the sky, then slashing down from the void. In that instant, the vast Yang Clan seemed to split apart from the middle. The aura of destruction annihilated everything. The roaring storm of sword energy rolled toward the direction of the Yang Clan's battle platform. Wherever it passed, everything was extinguished. All things, whether people or buildings, were annihilated in the sword light.
"Retreat!" The Old Master of the Yang Clan's face was pale. His body suddenly soared into the air to evade. Countless people frantically flashed away. The spreading sword light split the battle platform in two, continuing to spread forward. Those close to the destructive sword light had their bodies torn apart, obliterated without a trace.
"Such terrifying sword!" At that moment, everyone felt the suffocating sensation of death. Destruction was so close to them. Today was not the day of liberation from their shackles as they had imagined, but rather, the end.
The deadly revenge of Heavenly Terrace had arrived!
In the distance, a figure soared into the air. His handsome figure and sharply defined face were as clean and neat as if carved by a knife. A green robe fluttered in the wind, accentuating his peerless bearing. The dazzling sword in his hand made everyone feel how close death was.
"The Yang Clan is finished!" When the crowd clearly saw the owner of this figure, a single voice echoed in their minds. The end had come.
The Yang Clan's choice had brought about today's end!
Even the Old Master of the Yang Clan laughed, a strange laugh. The moment he saw this figure, he knew the Yang Clan was finished. This smile was very bitter.
"Hou Qinglin, the Yang Clan has come to this because of the pressure from Heavenly Terrace. The Yang Clan has done nothing wrong. I, Yang Tianlin, have done nothing wrong!" At this moment, the Old Master of the Yang Clan was no longer so afraid. He knew that today, death was unavoidable. The Azure Forest Reincarnation Sword had stepped into the Sovereign Lord realm and forcefully entered the Yang Clan. Who could stop him? Hou Qinglin had already slain a Sovereign Lord a few years ago, when his cultivation was far from what it was today.
"In the world of martial arts, there is no right or wrong!" A calm voice came from Hou Qinglin's mouth. The Old Master of the Yang Clan's expression froze, but a smile still lingered on his face. That's right. In the world of martial arts, what right or wrong was there?
