Chapter 38: Wang Xian!

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Although he was a seventh-grade martial artist and wasn’t valued by the Wang Clan because of his mistakes, he was still considered an intermediate martial artist in the Northern Kingdom. He wasn’t particularly bad.

“Your Highness the Crown Prince, why did you come to the Wang clan? Quick, leave through the side door with me while no one has discovered you. The Wang clan has already fallen out with the royal family. If you’re discovered, you’ll only die!”

After the Wang Clan revolted, the original royal family had to be killed. Not a single one would be left alive.

Although Wang Xian found it strange that the former Crown Prince did not look like a martial artist with crippled meridians at all, instead, he had the elegance of an immortal. However, he still wanted to escort Li Yuanqing away the moment he saw him and save his life.

Although the Wang clan had asked him to be a spy, he had been teaching the former Crown Prince for more than ten years and had developed feelings for him. Otherwise, Li Yuanqing would not have trusted Wang Xian so much back then.

Li Yuanqing, who was still wavering, laughed after hearing Wang Xian’s words.

“Mr. Wang, since you already know that the Wang clan is seeking death by plotting treason, it’s up to you whether the descendants of the Wang clan will live or die in the future. Also, don’t tell anyone that I’ve been here. Just remember it!”

Li Yuanqing decided to spare Wang Xian’s life. There were probably only a few hundred or so of Wang clan’s descendants. However, there were more than a thousand people from the collateral or related families.

If the Wang Clan still did not heed his warning after he finished off the experts of the Wang Clan today, then they deserved to be exterminated.

After Li Yuanqing said that, he left the small courtyard swiftly. Wang Xian, who was a little dazed, heard his wife’s rasping voice and hurried in. His wife asked who was outside. He did not tell the truth either. He only told his wife to rest in peace and not let her imagination run wild.

When the Wang Clan discovered that their two Old Ancestors, patriarch and elders, as well as experts above the fifth grade had all died, they were simply terrified. They quickly rang the bell of communication, and only then did they realize the entire Wang Clan, besides the seventh-grade Wang Xian and the fifth-grade Wang Clan’s matriarch, over a hundred experts above the fifth-grade of the Wang Clan had died!

The key was that they had died quietly and were not discovered by anyone. When Wang Xian saw the corpses on the ground, it was as if he had fallen into an icehouse. His body was so cold that he could not move his limbs. Wang Xian recalled Li Yuanqing whom he met in the courtyard.

He was not the abandoned Crown Prince. He was the biggest backer of the Northern Kingdom. With Li Yuanqing around, the Northern Kingdom was as stable as gold.

The Wang clan’s thousand year old foundation was completely destroyed this time. If they did not learn from this lesson, they would probably face a calamity and would never be able to make a comeback.

Wang Xian, who had come to this realization, stepped forward. He had always been a virtuous and knowledgeable person. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have become Li Yuanqing’s teacher. In the past, he had been suppressed by the two Old Ancestors because he was too weak in the Wang family.

Now that the two Old Ancestors were gone, Wang Xian was the strongest.

Although the position of the matriarch of the household was high, she was still a woman. Wang Xian was chosen by the heartbroken members of the Wang clan and became the head of the Wang clan very quickly. He helped to settle the funeral affairs of these experts and arranged the future development of the Wang clan.

At this moment, letters from the Han and Zhao clans were sent to Wang Xian.

When he saw both the Han clan’s Old Ancestor and Zhao clan’s Old Ancestor were killed, and noticed that the experts from those two clans were also killed, a chill ran down Wang Xian’s back. Everyone was guessing what kind of Almighty this person was.

While others were still speculating whether it was the royal family or some mighty figure from the Northern Kingdom, Wang Xian knew clearly that the mighty figure everyone was talking about was the former Crown Prince Li Yuanqing who was once his student.

However, at the thought that Li Yuanqing had once spared his life and told him not to tell anyone, Wang Xian really refused to say anything. He only sent people to find out if anything had happened to the remaining four clans.

The Zhi clan of the seven great clans was not strong. Li Yuanqing did not alert anyone when he went over. However, he was still disgusted when he found the patriarch of the Zhi clan.

Although that person was a peak ninth-grade expert, he looked like he was in his forties or fifties. His hair was white and his face was wretched. No wonder Wang Xian’s wife kept crying day and night. Anyone would be heartbroken if their precious daughter was given to such a person to be his wife.

Therefore, Li Yuanqing did not hesitate when killing him.

It took Li Yuanqing less than two hours to get rid of all the Zhi clan’s experts. Moreover, he spent most of his time searching for them. However, he decided to find a place to rest after he left the Zhi clan.

He had exterminated three or four aristocratic families after a day and a night of non-stop running about. Although he was efficient, he was still a little tired. On this day, he happened to see a small river, and there was a large bazaar and wine tavern by the river.

He strolled into a clean-looking restaurant. He chose a table near the river and sat down. From time to time, he would take a look at the sparkling river. He also ordered a cup of tea and a few side dishes.

Li Yuanqing was already a Martial Saint. Even though he had already abstained from eating, it was still a form of pleasure to enjoy delicacies. It was also a form of rest for him to sit in a restaurant and enjoy the atmosphere of the city.

The restaurant had always been the most well-informed place in the Northern Kingdom. While Li Yuanqing was waiting for the dishes to be served, he heard a lot of news.

On one hand, it was said that the Seven Great Clans wanted to rebel. Many commoners were worried that the Northern Kingdom would fall into another war. At that time, they would probably sell their sons and daughters and have nowhere to stay.

It was said that one would rather be a dog in a peaceful time than a man in a chaotic time. If they really fought, it would be the commoners who suffered!

There were many similar tales, but Li Yuanqing did not pay attention to them.

However, he also heard a different tale. It was news about the Wang clan. It was said that the coffin shops near the Wang clan worked day and night, and they even brought coffins from the nearby markets.

It was said that the Wang clan suddenly had a disease and hundreds of people died overnight. That was why they went around buying coffins.

The Wang Clan was an aristocratic family that had existed for thousands of years. To have hundreds of people die at once like this was something that had never happened in hundreds of years. That was why the commoners were so curious.

The news spread like wildfire. In just a day’s time, the news was spread to the restaurant.

“It isn’t a plague. Don’t you know that something big has happened? Not only the Wang clan, but even the Zhao clan and the Han clan are in trouble. The Imperial Court is going to attack the aristocratic families!”

“The Imperial Court is actually very powerful. I’m afraid the aristocratic families are going to suffer this time. I heard that the Zhao Clan is also buying coffins everywhere!”

“An Almighty is taking action! We still have to trust the Imperial Court!”
