Covering the Sky: I, Wang Teng, truly lack the bearing of an emperor.

Chapter 487 The Intrigue and Power Struggle of the Two Royal Clans

The terrain of this dangerous place looked somewhat familiar; he had seen similar dangerous places back in the Eastern Wilderness.

Back in the Eastern Wilderness, Wang Teng had already discerned that the perilous place was the dwelling place of a powerful ancient clan.

However, since the ancient clans had not yet recovered at that time, and Wang Teng's strength was not as great as it is now, he did not pay attention to that matter.

Unexpectedly, after obtaining the Ziwei Star Domain, Wang Teng found a place that was almost exactly the same as that dangerous place from before.

Moreover, ancient tribes also slumber here.

Others might not know, but Wang Teng could see it very clearly: there was the aura of an ancient clan here, though faint, it was real.

“Interesting,” Wang Teng couldn’t help but say.

I never expected that an ancient tribe would be sleeping in this place.

"What's wrong?" Yan Ruyu asked.

“The aura of royalty, and the ancient clans that sleep here have very unusual origins,” Wang Teng said.

Yan Ruyu was also somewhat surprised to hear Wang Teng's words.

Ancient tribes?

Shouldn't the ancient tribes' main base be over there in the Big Dipper?
"Ancient clans?" the Hundred Flowers Saintess asked in confusion.

It was obvious that there were almost no traces or news of ancient clans in the Ziwei Star Region, so she was somewhat surprised and unfamiliar when she suddenly heard these two words.

“Yes, these creatures were active millions of years ago. Later, as the world changed drastically, many ancient races sealed themselves away and fell into slumber. But recently they have begun to revive. In our area, a conflict broke out between the ancient races and other races such as humans and demons. In the end, it was only thanks to the intervention of some top experts that the situation was resolved properly.” Wang Teng nodded and said.

Although he played a significant role, he didn't mention it, feeling that what he did was insignificant compared to what his predecessors had done.

“I see… We don’t have any such records in our Holy Land.” The Hundred Flowers Saintess nodded and said.

"That doesn't matter, but what I'm curious about is that, judging from the aura here, the ancient clan sealed here is an ancient royal clan, which should be called the Prison Clan. However, the ancient clan represented by the Winged Spirit Hound should be the Winged Spirit Clan. The two clans are not very close, so why would the Winged Spirit Hound appear next to the Prison Clan's habitat?"

Wang Teng spoke calmly, his gaze fixed on the perilous landscape before him, as if deep in thought.

Upon hearing this, Yan Ruyu also realized something and stared at the dangerous place in front of her.

The Holy Maiden of a Hundred Flowers looked at the expressions of the two people. Although she didn't quite understand, she held her breath and focused intently on the dangerous place before her.

She had previously wanted to explore this place and capture the winged spirit dogs in this dangerous area.

However, after several attempts, she returned empty-handed.

This is indeed a very dangerous place. Even powerful beings or those who have reached the Dao-Slaying stage might perish inside.

"Let's go in and take a look; maybe we'll find a pleasant surprise," Wang Teng said with a smile.

They continued onward, entering this dangerous area.

Throughout the journey, the Holy Maiden of a Hundred Flowers wore a solemn expression, looking around as if she were on guard against any potential crisis.

"It's alright, don't worry so much, there's no major crisis," Yan Ruyu said, reassuring the nervous Hundred Flowers Saintess.

Even if there are powerful figures lurking here, the strongest would only be a Saint. With Wang Teng's trump cards and methods, Yan Ruyu believed that even if a Saint suddenly launched an attack, they would be fine.

“There is no crisis,” Wang Teng shook his head and said decisively.

There is only a sage lying in wait here; there is no danger.

Moreover, this is the Ziwei Star Region, where some trump cards can be exposed without restraint. Even if the people of the Ziwei Star Region find out, it will take a long time for others to know about them after the news is relayed back to Beidou.

Even without using his trump cards, Wang Teng might be able to suppress the Sage head-on.

Therefore, Wang Teng has nothing to worry about.

As they continued their journey, Wang Teng noticed many things that seemed amiss.

For example, the Winged Spirit Dog, a rare and exotic beast, is very popular outside, and even the saintesses of great religions flock to it. But here, these rare and exotic beasts seem to be treated as... watchdogs?

Not long after they entered this dangerous place, they were discovered by the winged spirit hounds, who immediately surrounded them, eyeing them menacingly.

These winged hounds were all adults, and were very large, almost like adult tigers.

Although it has lost the cuteness of its childhood, it has gained a lot of divine power and still looks exceptionally eye-catching.

Most importantly, these adult winged spirit dogs are all at a very high level of strength, equivalent to top-tier experts, with the leader even comparable to a Dao-slaying King!
They sensed that someone had intruded into this dangerous place, and from a great distance they unleashed their power, roaring in an attempt to drive back the intruders.

“Interesting. One royal family enslaves the descendants of another royal family, treating them like watchdogs…” Wang Teng chuckled and said.

If this news were to reach Beidou, the ancient races, which had just settled down, might experience another upheaval, though this time the upheaval might not be directed at the human race.

"A rivalry between two royal families?" Yan Ruyu asked, her voice clear and crisp.

The Hundred Flowers Saintess stood to the side with a serious expression. She wanted to remind the two people beside her that they were facing a group of adult Winged Spirit Dogs. These guys were powerful, each of them comparable to a Great Power, and there was even a Dao-Slaying King among them!
But judging from their relaxed and carefree demeanor, perhaps they don't care at all?
"It's quite a coincidence that one of the three half-saint level beings I killed in the War of Ten Thousand Races was a powerful figure from the Prison Clan," Wang Teng said.

The adult winged hounds ahead were still charging towards them.

They were like the most loyal watchdogs guarding the royal family's dwelling place, preventing other creatures from disturbing the royal family's slumber.

Seeing this, Wang Teng couldn't help but sigh. If only the Great Sage, the watchdog outside the Supreme Holy Land, were this obedient.

Compared to the other two, even the watchdog Monkey King wasn't as loyal as the pack of dogs in front of him.

However, no matter how loyal these dogs are, it doesn't change their strength.

Wang Teng easily suppressed these dozen or so adult winged spirit dogs. The reason he didn't kill them was naturally because they would be useful later.

Upon seeing this, the Saintess of a Hundred Flowers froze for a moment.

Then she came to her senses and was glad she hadn't said anything.

At the same time, she also understood the strength of the boy in front of her, and knew why these two people seemed to see nothing when facing so many adult winged spirit dogs.

It turns out they had absolute power to suppress all of this.

That's okay...

"With the watchdog suppressed, the things inside are probably about to revive," Wang Teng said.

Sure enough, before they could take more than a few steps forward, they were blocked by two ancient beings.

"Who is coming..."

One of the Hell Clan beings spoke, but before he could finish his sentence, his eyes widened in shock.

"You are stained with the blood of our race's half-saints!" he shouted, his voice filled with shock and anger. Wang Teng calmly looked at him.

For a powerful ancient clan to dare to show anger towards a powerhouse who had recently killed a half-saint, in a way, this ancient clan is quite remarkable.

So Wang Teng easily suppressed him.

The next moment, the entire dangerous area seemed to come back to life, and hundreds of auras soared into the sky!

One-third of them were powerful beings, and almost all the rest were Dao-Slaying Kings. Among them were three exceptionally powerful auras, who were clearly Saints!

"It seems that this group of ancient clans was sealed together," Wang Teng said.

Otherwise, given the strength of these ancient clans, it would have been difficult to obtain enough divine resources at the end of the Primordial Era to allow these hundreds of people to fall into slumber and be sealed away.

"Let's go inside and take another look," Wang Teng said, continuing to walk forward.

The Hundred Flowers Saintess wanted to speak up when she saw this scene. They had already arrived at the place where the Winged Spirit Dogs were. They could just pick up a few young Winged Spirit Dogs here and secretly take them away.

However, it's clear that neither of them wants to let this go easily.

So the Holy Maiden of a Hundred Flowers followed them deeper into the area, since they had already come this far.

However, perhaps it was that scream that awakened the ancient sage who was sleeping here.

Deep within the perilous land, a powerful aura awakens, like a great sun slowly rising.

Although they were far apart, they still put a lot of pressure on Wang Teng and his team.

The Holy Maiden of a Hundred Flowers was breathing rapidly, and under this oppressive force, she almost wanted to kneel down.

She had never faced such a powerful being before. Even the Holy Lord of the Hundred Flowers Holy Land was as weak as an ant in the face of this aura.

She even had a feeling that if this aura wanted to, it could raze their Hundred Flowers Holy Land to the ground in a very short time!
"Please, senior, make your move," Wang Teng said calmly.

What era are we living in? Do we still have to fight ourselves?

The next moment, a huge battle axe cleaved through the sky and rushed into the deepest part of this dangerous place!

Then, that aura disappeared...

Deep within the desolate forbidden land, the ancient clan saint, who had just been revived, had a serious expression on his face. He was just about to ask who was so bold as to kill a half-saint of their clan!

Then, he saw a dozen or so Great Saints surrounding him, their eyes filled with intense curiosity. Not far away, there was even a Great Accomplished Saint watching him.

Yes!

The Great Holy Body!

“I…” The Prison Clan Saint’s face was grim, even showing despair.

He really wanted to ask him if he had violated any divine law.
How did we end up here so soon after the recovery?
Why are these Great Sages surrounding me?
How come there's a Great Accomplished Holy Body here!
"How rare! The young master actually sent back an ancient clan saint?"

"They look like members of the Prison Clan..."

"He looks unfamiliar; he's not a local sage."

……

Seeing a group of great saints criticizing him, the saint of the prison clan had a bitter taste in his mouth but dared not speak of it.

He was terrified that if he uttered a single wrong word, he would be mercilessly killed by the group of people in front of him.

He didn't even dare to ask why he had come here, and could only tremble in fear under the gazes of a group of powerful figures.

Fortunately, these powerful individuals quickly dispersed.

However, before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, he saw a figure wearing a bronze mask walking towards him.

This person's aura was far more powerful, even surpassing the most powerful being he had ever seen. Even the ancient emperor of the past could not compare to this person before him.

Then everything went black and he fainted.

The Purple Star Domain.

Looking at the ring before him, the Chaotic Ancient Emperor God sent over the other two ancient clan saints who wanted to be revived.

"It's resolved." The voice of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor's Weapon God rang in Wang Teng's ears.

"Thank you for your help, senior." Wang Teng nodded.

"Hey! Why be so polite with me? Besides, sending these guys back seems quite interesting." The Chaotic Ancient Emperor's weapon deity said with a chuckle.

After saying that, he couldn't wait to rush back to the desolate forbidden land, wanting to see the panicked and astonished expressions of those ancient saints.

"Alright, the three saints have been dealt with." Wang Teng said calmly, as if he had dealt with some cats and dogs, not saints.

"The Sage... has solved it?" The Hundred Flowers Saintess's eyes widened.

She found it incredible; nothing she had experienced before combined was as exciting as what she was going through today.

He had only asked these two people to help him capture the cubs of the Winged Spirit Dog, but he had unexpectedly stumbled upon the ancient clan's sleeping land.

There were actually three saints here, and before she even got to see them, all three saints were dealt with.
"Yes, it's been resolved. The remaining Dao-Slaying Kings and Great Powers have gone into hiding and dare not come out again. You can go and capture those Winged Spirit Hounds now," Wang Teng said with a smile.

As for him, he brought Yan Ruyu to the deepest part of this ancient clan's sleeping place.

This is also the place where those ancient sages slept.

Along the way, they passed through the area where the ancient races were most concentrated in slumber. They were surrounded by ancient race powerhouses and Dao-Slaying Kings who had already awakened. However, even the most powerful Dao-Slaying Kings lowered their heads when facing Wang Teng, pretending that they were still asleep.

Those three saints have already been dealt with. Even if these Dao-Slaying Kings suddenly unleashed their power, they wouldn't be able to defeat this young man. Rather than that, it's better to pretend that nothing happened...

Upon reaching the deepest part, Wang Teng found something.

"Both the Prison Clan and the Winged Spirit Clan had members remaining in the Ziwei Star Region. They were supposed to slumber together, but the Prison Clan's powerful members reneged at the crucial moment. To ensure the survival of as many of their own, they slaughtered the Winged Spirit Clan's experts and kept a portion of their descendants captive, raising them into their current form to serve as watchdogs. In millions of years, only a small fraction of these Winged Spirit hounds escaped—those we encountered earlier…"

Based on these materials and the memories in the mind of the initial powerful member of the Prison Clan, Wang Teng roughly pieced together the sequence of events.

It's obvious that if these things were placed in front of the Winged Spirit Clan, they would absolutely drive that powerful ancient royal family completely mad.

Perhaps only one race, the Prison Clan or the Winged Spirit Clan, will survive in the end.

"The infighting among the ancient clans might be something we can take advantage of," Yan Ruyu said softly.

Wang Teng nodded. Once he returned to Beidou in a while, he planned to give the ancient clan a huge surprise. (End of Chapter)
