Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 794 The Ancient Clan: It's Time for a Change!
The ancient holy city, inside the city.

After entering the city gate, Xiao Yan, led by Mo Yu, arrived in this city filled with an ancient atmosphere.

Today, the ancient holy city is naturally at its most bustling, with streets teeming with people. Although the buildings look quite old, they show no signs of decay and instead appear as new as ever.

Anyone qualified to be in this city, even the lowest servant, should not be underestimated.

This is the foundation that the ancient tribes are so proud of.

"This ancient clan is truly impressive."

Xiao Yan gazed at the ancient building before him, his eyes slightly dazed, as if a strange sense of familiarity washed over him.

Mo Yu chuckled and said, "Young Master, you may not know this, but the predecessor of this Ancient Holy City has quite a history."

"What do you mean?" Xiao Yan asked, glancing sideways.

"According to the Palace Master, a thousand years ago, this place wasn't called 'Ancient Holy City,' but rather 'Xiao Emperor City,'" Mo Yu said softly, his old eyes slightly narrowed.

"Xiao Dicheng?"

Upon hearing this grand and imposing name, Xiao Yan's pupils suddenly contracted, and he subconsciously asked, "You mean?!"

"Heh heh!" Mo Yu chuckled sinisterly, "This land back then wasn't the territory of any ancient clan at all, but rather the place where the Xiao clan took the initiative to show their sincerity and promote an alliance between the two clans!"

These words immediately caused Xiao Yan to frown deeply.

Even though he had long accepted the fact that the Xiao clan had perished, he never imagined that even the city used for the alliance between the two clans had been transformed by the ancient clan and turned into their own territory!

Thoughts raced through Xiao Yan's mind, his eyes flickering, and he said in a low voice, "Tell me in detail."

Mo Yu immediately understood and smiled, "Young Master should know that the eight ancient clans all had an ancestor who was an unparalleled powerhouse at the Dou Di level, which is why they possess such noble titles."

"As the city where the ancient races entered, the city not only has no buildings related to the Dou Di, but also lowers its status to be called 'Saint'. The difference between them is obvious."

The word "Saint" in the Dou Qi Continent can only represent one identity.

That is a powerful being at the level of a Battle Saint.

However, although the strength of a Dou Sheng is enough to easily dominate an entire realm, it is undoubtedly far too weak in front of a legendary Dou Di.

Looking at it this way, it is undoubtedly extremely puzzling that the ancient clan would abandon its prestigious status as a Dou Di family and instead name this city 'Ancient Holy City'.

Xiao Yan's brows furrowed, and after a long while, he suddenly pondered and said, "You mean, the reason that ancient clan did this is related to the Xiao Realm left behind by my Xiao clan?"

"Young Master is wise."

Mo Yu bowed respectfully and said, "When the Xiao Clan was defeated, the entire clan moved away from the Xiao Realm. The land left behind naturally fell into the hands of the ancient clans."

"As a small world personally created by Emperor Xiao, Xiao Realm is a true imperial realm. Its value is so high that even my Soul Clan covets it."

"That's why, after the ancient clans occupied the Xiao Realm, they chose to gather the strength of the clan and forcibly piece together the two imperial realms, which is why they have the grand territory of the current leader of the eight clans."

At this point, a hint of sarcasm flashed in Mo Yu Lao's eyes: "And this Xiao Di City was thus transformed and called Ancient Saint City by the Dou Sheng powerhouse who made the move."

Given Mo Yu's status, he actually had no right to know such a top secret.

Not to mention him, even most of the ancient clan's prodigies and elders are unaware that the land they live on did not originate from themselves, but was usurped by others.
Therefore, all of this clearly came from someone else.

A Soul Clan expert whose status and strength far surpassed everyone present.

Xiao Yan's expression gradually calmed down, and he said calmly, "These are things that the Palace Master asked you to tell me?"

Upon learning the origins of the ancient holy city, he showed no anger whatsoever, not even the slightest emotional fluctuation; he remained remarkably calm.

Xiao Yan knew very well that even with Hun Ruoruo's connection, not everyone in the Soul Clan could be trusted, especially given her overtures. He could accept the Soul Clan, but that didn't mean he would willingly be used as a pawn.

"Hehe, as expected, you can't hide it from the young master."

Mo Yu smiled, but made no attempt to hide anything, cupping his hands and saying, "This old servant is merely relaying the Lord's intentions. As for what you intend to do or what you want to do, no one will be able to interfere."

A hint of a smile flashed in his old eyes as he said meaningfully, "This old servant only wants to tell you, young master, that some people may care about you more than they do about scheming."

Xiao Yan suddenly looked up and stared intently at him: "You"

On the other hand, Mo Yu had already bowed deeply, not looking up at his face, and respectfully gave up the seat next to him: "Young Master, please."

Gazing at the obsequious old man who was like a servant, Xiao Yan remained lost in thought for a long time until the shouts of shopkeepers echoed through the sky not far away. Only then did he realize what was happening and suddenly smiled.

"Ah."

He stepped through the crowd, leaving the magnificent building behind. Sunlight reflected on the huge, upside-down plaque, gradually obscuring the bold, calligraphic characters of "Ancient Holy City," leaving only its radiance.

"Uncle Yu, thank you."

A soft whisper came, causing Mo Yu, who had been bowing, to suddenly raise his head, his old face filled with wild joy.

His eyes gleamed with arrogance, and he laughed maniacally: "Young master, rest assured, even if this old servant were to give up his dog's life, he would still join the young lady and you to turn this ancient clan upside down!"

Meanwhile, on the other side of the ancient city.

Two figures stood on the upper floor of the tavern, their gazes fixed on Xiao Yan.

"This prince consort is quite the troublemaker."

One of the young men, who looked like a carefree young master, was tapping the table from time to time, and sighed self-deprecatingly: "I thought he would be more restrained when he came to the ancient clan, but who would have thought that he would be even more ruthless than my Soul Clan."

"Stirring up trouble?"

Beside him, the stern-faced young man sneered and said disdainfully, "That's what you say, but judging from your expression, you're probably more excited than anyone else, aren't you?"

Upon hearing this, the carefree young master turned around and revealed an extremely familiar face.

It is Soul Cliff.

His face was gentle, but there was an undisguised evil in his eyes. He looked restless and showed no fear whatsoever.

"As the husband of a young lady, how can he be worthy of the title of consort of my Soul Clan if he doesn't do something earth-shattering?"

Hunya licked his lips and sighed softly, "Besides, Miss is a woman, how can she always be accompanied by rough men like us?"

"Rather than being constantly disliked by her, I might as well take advantage of this opportunity to follow the prince consort and make a name for myself. Even if I die, it will be worth it!"

At this point, Hunya was clearly excited, his eyes gleaming with a burning light.

Seeing this, Hun Li stopped denying it and said calmly, "I have found out all the information about Ling Feng and put it here."

He casually tossed a token towards Soul Cliff.

"Hehe, I knew you thought the same thing as me!"

Soul Cliff's eyes lit up as he took the token and examined it carefully.

"Damn those hypocritical old fogies of the ancient clans, even though my Soul Clan won a thousand years ago, they still managed to get all the treasures of the Xiao Clan. Who could stand such humiliation?"

"With the young lady and her consort personally taking the lead, the ancient clan is about to undergo a major upheaval!"
