809: Chapter 805: Forming an Alliance Again 809: Chapter 805: Forming an Alliance Again Ye Tian began to gather the power within his body.
The surrounding Cloud Qi was absorbed by Ye Tian, enveloping him in layers of suffocating energy!
“Hmph!
That’s all you’ve got.
Ye Tian, don’t think mastering the Xuan Cloud Technique makes you invincible!”
Facing Ye Tian’s overwhelming power, the red-clothed man didn’t show a trace of panic and instead spoke with proud disdain.
At that mont, Ye Tian, filled with indomitable fighting spirit, wouldn’t even put the red-clothed man in his eyes.
“If that’s the case, let test your skills!”
Ye Tian absorbed all the Cloud Qi into his body and then swung his fist.
But before he could unleash the strike, a loud shout stopped him!
“Stop!”
The voice was incredibly familiar to Ye Tian—it was none other than Ye Zhicang, the third elder of the Leaf Family!
Upon hearing the voice, Ye Tian abruptly halted his attack and looked up.
Ye Zhicang descended gracefully from overhead.
“Smack!”
With effortless ease, Ye Zhicang landed lightly between Ye Tian and the red-clothed man.
“Ye Zhicang, what are you doing here?
Why didn’t you stop from killing this spy?”
Ye Tian questioned in confusion, not understanding Ye Zhicang’s actions.
Ye Zhicang let out a bitter laugh and said, “Ye Tian, if you kill him, you’ll invite grave trouble.
This man is rely a ‘referee’!”
“Referee?”
Ye Tian was baffled.
He didn’t understand the aning behind the term “referee.” Was it akin to the referees in soccer or basketball gas?
“I’ll explain later!
Ye Tian, let’s talk once this guy leaves!”
Ye Zhicang montarily ignored Ye Tian and instead turned to face the red-clothed man.
“Daichong, the ga hasn’t started yet.
Why are you so impatient?
Don’t you know even referees must adhere to rules?”
Ye Zhicang revealed the red-clothed man’s na, but Daichong only smirked coldly in response.
“Though the ga hasn’t begun, the outco has already been determined.
That guy could never be a match for Sima Yun!”
Sima Yun?
Although Ye Tian said nothing, the ntion of a familiar na made his brows furrow.
Sima Yun—the leader of the Sima Family, elder brother of Sima Feng who died at the hands of Ye Tian.
After the Sima Family’s main estate was reduced to ashes, Sima Yun had no choice but to seek sanctuary inside Heaven Gate.
“Regardless of whether he’s Sima Yun’s match, as a referee, you cannot interfere in a martial artist’s private affairs!
Isn’t that right, Daichong?”
Ye Zhicang countered sharply.
Daichong chuckled bitterly and said, “Alright, Ye Zhicang, I’ll give the Leaf Family so face and leave for now.
But when the ga starts, no matter how much your Sima Family protects that guy, it will be useless!”
After finishing his words, Daichong executed Qinggong and left the villa district.
“…”
Ye Tian watched Daichong leave.
Though his abilities weren’t threatening, his words left Ye Tian uneasy.
A ga?
What ga?
“Ye Tian, I know you have many questions for .
But discussing matters on the rooftop isn’t ideal.
Let’s head inside to talk!”
With that, Ye Zhicang took a gentle leap and smoothly entered the villa below.
“Hmph!”
Ye Tian also descended, bringing Ye Zhicang into the villa’s living room.
There were still three to four hours before Yun Xinyan’s work shift ended—plenty of ti for Ye Zhicang to explain the situation in detail.
Ye Tian poured Ye Zhicang a cup of tea and said, “Ye Zhicang, I don’t even know where to begin asking questions.
So, why don’t you start by telling : this ti, was your visit coincidental, or were you deliberately looking for ?”
Taking a sip of his tea, Ye Zhicang replied, “Of course, it was deliberate.
I initially thought you’d be at the Night King Hall estate.
But when I searched, you were nowhere to be found.
Your deputy told you’d left, so I tracked you down here.”
“I see.”
It seed Ye Zhicang truly had sothing urgent.
Ye Tian pressed further, “Ye Zhicang, what’s so critical this ti?”
Ye Zhicang spoke steadily, “First, let share so good news.
Ye Tian, regarding your trespassing into the Leaf Family’s Forbidden Territory, the family has decided to let it go!”
“Really?”
A smile crossed Ye Tian’s face; he had trespassed into the Forbidden Territory and stolen the cultivation technique for Innate Arts—acts that the Leaf Family would never easily forgive.
Still, the family had decided to absolve him quickly.
Just whose efforts could have made this happen?
“Ye Zhicang, was it you who persuaded the Clan Leader?”
Ye Tian asked carefully, to which Ye Zhicang nodded.
“It wasn’t so much persuasion as a ‘command.'”
Ye Zhicang proceeded to recount the events of the past couple of days within the Leaf Family.
After a fierce battle between Ye Tian and the three Leaf Elders, not only did they fail to kill Ye Tian but even the family’s pet divine beast, the Pixiu, went on a rampage.
Once Ye Zhicang rescued Ye Tian, the three elders had to expend considerable effort to quell the Pixiu’s fury, finally restoring order and returning the beast to its residence.
At that critical mont, Ye Zhicang returned!
As Clan Leader, Ye Zhihuan was furious at Ye Zhicang’s actions and prepared to strike his younger brother down on the spot.
In the key mont, Ye Zhicang requested a private conversation with the Clan Leader.
Thinking his brother ant to utter a final plea, Ye Zhihuan agreed.
Inside a private chamber, Ye Zhicang disclosed his true identity to his elder brother, leaving Ye Zhihuan in shock!
While Ye Zhihuan hadn’t inherited ancestral mories, the family lore included ntion of a “predestined Clan Leader.”
In other words, the current Clan Leader of the Leaf Family was only the nominal head.
The true Clan Leader was the one who inherited ancestral mories.
As the Leaf Family always valued peace, there had never been a case of the rightful heir overthrowing the nominal Clan Leader.
Those with ancestral mories stayed silent.
This ti, Ye Zhicang revealed the truth—not to seize power, but to quell his elder brother’s anger.
“Clan Leader, I’m revealing my identity just to plead for Ye Tian.
While he trespassed into the Forbidden Territory, his actions are understandable.
Moreover, within the ancestral mories I inherited, Ye Tian is soone the Leaf Family must protect!
Thus, we cannot harm him!”
Ye Zhicang spoke firmly.
Hearing this, Ye Zhihuan’s lips trembled incessantly!
“Soone we must protect?
Could it be…
that he is…”
Ye Zhihuan instinctively began piecing it together.
However, Ye Zhicang left the revelation at that point; his goal was simply to secure Ye Tian’s safety.
“So, Ye Tian, you don’t need to worry about the Leaf Family hunting you down anymore.
Furthermore, the four of us brothers have unanimously agreed: from now on, the Leaf Family and the Night King Hall will remain allies, intertwined and helping one another, facing future dangers together!”
Ye Zhicang spoke honestly, and Ye Tian smiled.
“That’s for the best!”
For Ye Tian, such news couldn’t be more reassuring.
In a world filled with powerful adversaries, the Night King Hall’s strength appeared insignificant.
Forming an alliance with the millennia-old Leaf Family was a boon for them.
Of course, re words could not completely dispel Ye Tian’s concerns.
After all, he knew full well that Ye Zhicang wouldn’t go to such lengths just to deliver good tidings.
“Ye Zhicang, since we’ve discussed the Leaf Family, now tell about your true purpose for coming here.
Surely, it wasn’t just to stop from killing that red-clad snoop?”
“From a certain perspective, it was exactly that!”
Ye Zhicang didn’t hide the truth and spoke bluntly.
“You ca just to diate?”
Ye Tian felt a hint of disappointnt.
Could killing the red-clothed man really lead to disastrous consequences?
“Ye Tian, do you know who that man truly is?”
Ye Zhicang asked gravely.
Ye Tian scoffed, “That guy?
Like I care who he is!
Last ti, while I was cultivating, he was eavesdropping on the roof.
I chased him down and taught him a lesson, yet he managed to escape!
This ti, he ca back, forgetting his previous wounds.
How could I let him go unpunished?
So, I intended to kill him!
Yet his skills seed to have improved since our last encounter; I failed to strike him down with a single blow!”
Displeasure perated Ye Tian’s tone.
Ye Zhicang replied swiftly, “Luckily, I arrived in ti.
If you had killed Daichong, you would’ve unleashed a calamity!
Daichong is a mber of Heaven Gate!”
“Heaven Gate?”
From Ye Zhicang’s words, Ye Tian heard another familiar term, furrowing his brows.
His impression of Heaven Gate had never been favorable.
“Yes!
Heaven Gate!”
Ye Zhicang nodded firmly.
“To martial artists, Heaven Gate isn’t a force to be trifled with.
Not only is Heaven Gate imnsely powerful, but its backing is also beyond comprehension.
Behind Heaven Gate lies the Divine Race!”
“The Divine Race again?”
Ye Tian’s face showed traces of confusion.
If the Divine Race governed the world, then a faction controlled by them—like Heaven Gate—would indeed be nearly impossible to confront…
“Ye Tian, the Ye Divine Clan has been silent for many years.
Thus, your lineage as a descendant of the Ye Divine Clan won’t aid you much.
In contrast, those Divine Beings who control this world are terrifying entities no re martial artist can afford to provoke!”
Ye Zhicang spoke cautiously…
