Eternal life begins with saving my clan

Everyone inside the hall looked at each other, wondering who had just arrived. However, they didn't need to wait too long when an old man descended from the sky.

He was dressed in a luxurious robe with his body adorned in expensive jewelry. He entered the hall with an indifferent expression, not bothering to look at the clan masters sitting on both sides and only focusing his gaze on the main seat.

Even though he was in the Core Refining stage, he didn't look at the person on the main seat too much, or his soul would begin to hurt. Quickly, he sucked in a cold breath.

'How could such a powerful expert appear in this backward city?' The Envoy cried in his heart.

Just as the Envoy was pondering how such a powerful expert would appear in Baiyun city, he heard Su Yen's voice.

"You are not from this city. You have half a breath of time to tell me why you've come, else your head will roll."

Listening to such domineering words, everyone in the hall sucked in a breath and looked at the Envoy, waiting for his reaction.

The city lord and the Ye clan elders looked at each other and wiped off beads of sweat from their foreheads. They knew this was the Envoy sent by the Prefecture Lord, but that didn't make them happy at all.

It was the opposite. If they knew such an ancient monster was hiding inside the Cao clan, they wouldn't have dared to call for the Prefecture Lord.

Even if the Prefecture Lord appeared right now, he would be helpless against such a terrifying expert. Since the situation had spiraled out of their control, they chose to remain quiet and wait for how things would unfold.

Meanwhile, the Envoy was stunned by the audacity of the person sitting on the main seat. Still, he responded with a proud, confident smile.

"I'm the Envoy sent by the Prefecture Lord. The lord received an emergency message from your city lord." The Envoy responded calmly.

"Now, I understand." Su Yen muttered.

However, everyone inside the hall held their breath. The sharpness in the air rose to another level, and they knew what was going to happen next.

Ahhhh!

A cry of anguish echoed inside the hall that sent shivers down the spine of everyone. The cry came from the city lord; his arm was severed, blood gushing like a broken dam.

Those closer to them quickly retreated. Fear and panic etched deep on their faces. The two supreme elders behind the city lord rose to their feet as they prepared to attack.

Ah!!!

Before the two could circulate their Qi, both their legs and arms were severed.

Thud!

They fell to the ground, screaming in pain. In just a couple of seconds, the ground was covered in blood.

Looking at the three most powerful people in the Ye clan screaming in agony, every clan sucked in a cold breath. They were mentally exhausted and wished to escape from this nightmare.

Ahhhh

The two heads of the supreme elders rolled on the ground toward the feet of the stunned Envoy. As for the city lord, his face was full of regret and sorrow.

He should have learned his lesson the first time when he received such a fatal attack. Still, he failed to realize which led to the demise of the people he loved.

He failed his wife, his son, and his clan. Tears dripped from the corner of his eyes before closing it.

Thud!

His head followed suit and rolled on the ground.

The three most powerful factions in Baiyun city had just been eradicated in just a day. It was done so easily that it didn't cause any upheaval in the city.

Those in the room realized how fragile and weak they were in front of such domineering strength. As for the Envoy, he didn't know how to react.

Even his lord couldn't kill without making a move. Now, he realized he had entered the lion's den, and the name of his lord wouldn't save his head if he didn't comply with everything that happened tonight.

Dealing with the city lord and the Crimson Jade Pavilion elders didn't cause any ripple in Su Yen's mind. He turned his gaze and looked at the envoy.

"Since you've come. I will send you to the prefecture lord," Su Yen began slowly.

"Please tell me," the Envoy responded respectfully.

"I want my stores to spread throughout the prefecture before the start of the Hidden Dragon Tournament. Relay my message carefully; if any city or any clan tries to play tricks…." His voice trailed off.

"I won't be merciful like I was in Baiyun city."

"Y-Yes. I will tell the Prefecture Lord everything. And I assure you, no city would dare stop you or give you any problem."

"Good. I will hold you to your word."

En!

The envoy widened his eyes. Why would you hold me to my word? I'm just trying to flatter you; why would you take it seriously? He cried in his heart.

"Take," he commanded.

The envoy only opened his hand when a pouch appeared in his hand. He looked at the pouch and wondered what was inside.

"That's one of the things my store is selling. Take it as a gift to the prefecture lord."

"If you're wondering what it was. Put one on your finger and send your consciousness into it."

The Envoy, full of confusion, opened the pouch and took out a single ordinary-looking ring. He looked at the ring for a couple of seconds but couldn't detect what was special about it.

Still, he put it on his left finger and sent his consciousness inside it. And behold, the wonder

of the Spirit Comms appeared in his mind.

For a couple of minutes, the Envoy was glued to the world that appeared in his mind. After another couple of minutes, he woke up from his stunned state and raised his head to look at Su Yen.

But realized his mistake and quickly averted his gaze. "This is magical…" he screamed.

Once again, he realized he had let his emotions get the better of him and quickly controlled his emotion.

Taking a deep breath, he asked. " Your honor, what should I call?"

"Sect Master of the Celestial Heavenly Sect."

"Sect what….!"
