Chapter 1586 - The Deadline

Chapter 1586 - The Deadline

Chief Grandpa, is that senior really that amazing? Yun Shang asked.


Yun Shang was very smart, but she was also too young and inexperienced. She knew that Yun Che was amazing, but she didnt really understand that what he did to her was out of this world. Naturally, she was surprised by Yun Tings reaction.


Of course, Yun Ting replied.


Is he more amazing than you when you were stronger? Yun Shang continued to ask.


Yun Ting shook his head while smiling. He said, I may have been a Divine Master, but its nothing compared to this seniors achievements. Shanger, you may not realize this, but the blessing bestowed upon you during this half-year is something others cannot obtain even in a million lifetimes.


Yun Shangs lips parted. The chiefs words had further increased the already huge image of Yun Che in her heart and painted a layer of mystique over it.


Shanger, can you really not to say that seniors name? He... he must like you a lot to bless you so. Did he mention if hes going to visit you anytime soon? Yun Xiang asked in an urgent tone.


Stop. Yun Ting stopped him with a wave of his hand. He understood why Yun Xiang had sounded so so urgent. The deadline that would decide the fate of the Heavenly Handle Yun Clan was close, and this mysterious benefactor might just be able to help them survive it. The gifts he bestowed Yun Shang are already beyond our ability to repay, so how can we ask him to help us more than he already has? Right now, the only way we can repay his favor is to not disturb his peace... Unless the master shows up on his own, no one is to ask Shanger about him.


Yun Xiang fell silent after that.


Yun Ting rose to his feet and sucked in a deep breath. Then, he said, Xianger, well hold a clan meeting in ten days. Relay this order to everyone immediately... Cough, cough cough...


He coughed softly for a time after giving the order, but no one looked surprised by it. It was clear that they were used to it by now.


If Yun Ting hadnt wanted to cling to life until the day of the deadline, he mightve left the world already. His condition was that bad.


Clan meeting? At first, everyone was surprised by his decision. Then, they looked and Yun Shang and realized something. Could it be...


Thats right, Yun Ting slowly looked back up and declared in a loud voice, Shanger will be appointed as the young chief!


The Heavenly Handle Yun Clan has suffered for tens of thousands of years, and were almost at the ultimate deadline. However, the heavens have chosen to gift us a priceless treasure in our most difficult time. Shanger has a purple heavenly handle, and the level of her talent is unprecedented thanks to the blessing of a master... We may not be able to escape our annihilation, but the Heavenly Handle Yun Clan will rise again as long as Shanger is safe!


Yun Tings powerful declaration quickly infected everyone else with high spirits. Yun Shang was the only one looked at a loss as she subconsciously looked in Yun Ches direction for help.


Xianger... are you okay with this? Yun Ting asked because Yun Xiang was the current young chief of the Heavenly Handle Yun Clan and his direct descendant, whereas Yun Shang wasnt.


His eyes growing determined, Yun Xiang declared without any hesitation, Shanger may be young, but theres no one in the entire clan whos more fit to bear the hope and future of our entire clan than her. I will do my best to support Shanger after Ive surrendered my position to her... I swear to do this even if it costs my own life!


The young chief is truly wise, the clan elders all praised him.


Very good, Yun Ting said while nodding slowly, this is the kind of determination and willpower I would expect from a descendant of the Yun Clan!


Please, stay with us for a while so we may thank you for saving Shanger. Despite the excitement, Yun Ting hadnt forgotten about Yun Che or Qianye Yinger. Yun Che didnt reject his goodwill.


Thank you for your hospitality.


......


Yun Che and Qianye Yinger were treated very well because they saved Yun Shang. The fact that their room was located at the center of the clan also showed the clans appreciation for them.


Excited noises kept entering the room from outside. Yun Shangs return was like the light before the darkness of the apocalypse.


Yun Che slowly walked around the room, looking at the decorations and sensing the auras around him... So, he was the descendant of a devil person from the start, and this was where the Yun Family came from.


How much time do you plan to waste here? Qianye Yinger asked suddenly.


Yun Che closed his eyes before replying, I wasnt with my family or my parents since I was young. When we were finally reunited, I wasnt able to perform my filial duties for long before that terrible disaster struck... so finding their ancestors’ home and allowing their spirits to bask in their roots maybe the only thing left I can do for them besides taking revenge.


And of course... Black light flashed across his eyes when he reopened them. This deadline gives us the perfect excuse to nab what we need.


That is the answer I wanted to hear, Qianye Yinger said before walking up to him. But dont take too long, you hear me? Otherwise, I may... take matters into my own hands.


Yun Che shot her a look before saying, Youre overthinking this!


I better be. Qianye Yingers eyes twirled before she continued, If Im correct, the other reason you didnt embed a slave imprint in me is because youre worried that youre not hard enough. You want me to give you the push you need in case it becomes necessary... dont worry, I promise I wont disappoint you in this regard!


... Yun Che frowned, but didnt refute her words.


Dong dong dong...


A series of knocks suddenly came from the door. Then, Yun Shangs gentle voice entered the room, are you in there, senior?


Come in. Yun Che replied while turning around. His cold, dark eyes turned gentle without him realizing it.


Yun Shang opened the door and rushed in. She had changed out of her previous clothes for a new white dress. She stopped in front of Yun Che with reddened cheeks and stared at him with even greater admiration than before, saying, Senior, I didnt know you were... that amazing, heehee.


Before today, Chief Yun Ting was the most powerful person in her world. But when she saw the look of reverence on Yun Tings face when he spoke of the master, not even her inexperience could stop her from realizing just how amazing Yun Che really was.


Yun Che gave her a smile and said, Why are you here? Im sure you have a lot of things to do after all the commotion you caused right after you returned to the clan.


I just felt like seeing you, thats all. Yun Shang smiled right back. I guess I got used to staying with you during this half a year, Senior. I feel strangely unsafe while youre not by my side. Thats I snuck away and came here.


... Yun Ches eyes glazed over for a moment before he recovered himself. Yun Shang, exactly when is the day of the deadline?


Yun Shangs smile immediately turned to gloom when she heard the question, but she quickly smiled again and answered, A month from now. But Chief Grandpa and everyone said theres nothing to worry about. Were on very good terms with the Thousand Desolation Divine Sect, so they probably wont do anything really bad toward us when the time comes.


Of course, by very good terms, she really meant that the Heavenly Handle Yun Clan was doing everything in their power to curry favor with the Thousand Desolation Divine Sect...


After all, they were the Burning Moon King Realms chosen sanctioner.


If the Sinful Yun Clan couldnt recover the sacred artifact after the ten thousand-year deadline had passed, then the Thousand Desolation Divine Sect was free to punish them however they liked... including wiping them from the face of the earth. Naturally, the Sinful Yun Clan mustve stooped to unimaginable depths to curry favor with the Thousand Desolation Divine Sect.


I see. Then you probably dont have too much to worry about, Yun Che said. Then, he asked casually, Oh right, what will the Burning Moon Realm do if the Thousand Desolation Divine Sect doesnt punish you after the deadline?


They wont do anything. Yun Shang shook her head without hesitation. Daddy once told me that the Burning Moon Realm said this: if the Heavenly Handle Yun Clan can avoid their destruction or even claim the upper hand over the Thousand Desolation Divine Sect, then it must mean that fate still has plans in store for the Yun Clan. In that case, in the name of the king realm, they will not interfere or punish us further.


Yun Che and Qianye Yinger frowned at once.


Although it sounded like the Burning Moon Realm was giving Heavenly Handle Yun Clan a sliver of hope, in reality they were hammering in the nails into their coffins.


It was because their declaration of mercy ensured that the Thousand Desolation Divine Sect would do everything in their power to kill off the Heavenly Handle Yun Clan. There was no way in hell they would ever give the Heavenly Handle Yun Clan the chance to claim the upper hand over them.


This so-called sinful region was probably a device of the Thousand Desolation Divine Sect as well.


As a result, the Heavenly Handle Yun Clan had declined to their current state. Only six hundred thousand people were left in the clan, and their population was smaller than a sect of a lower star realm. The way they were now, they posed absolutely no threat to the Thousand Desolation Divine Sect.


The Thousand Desolation Divine Sect wouldnt annihilate the Sinful Yun Clan now because the latter still had to retrieve the sacred artifact. But the moment the day of the deadline arrived, the Sinful Yun Clans fate would hinge in the Thousand Desolation Divine Sect’s decision.


Neither Yun Che nor Qianye Yinger believed that the Thousand Desolation Divine Sect would show the Sinful Yun Clan mercy.


It was because they had offended a king realm!


The reason the Thousand Desolation Divine Sect could replace the Heavenly Handle Yun Clan in the first place was due to the Burning Moon Realm. Naturally, they had no reason to disobey their superiors... the only reason they showed an ambiguous attitude and gave the Sinful Yun Clan hope was to bleed them as much as possible.


A short conversation later, he asked yet another seemingly unimportant question, Why is the Nine Lights Heavenly Palace targeting your clan?


Yun Shang thought for a moment before replying, Big Brother Xiang once told me that the Chief Palace Master of Nine Lights Heavenly Palace has a young son. Apparently, he is incredibly talented in the profound way. However, he has been stuck at peak Divine King Realm for over three hundred years. A year ago, Nine Lights Heavenly Palace somehow caught wind that we have an ancient pellet that might help the chief palace masters son achieve a breakthrough, and since then theyve been trying to take it from us.


At first, they just wanted to trade it for something. After we turned them down, they started using a lot of despicable methods, Yun Shang said angrily, but well never surrender the ancient pellet to them. Chief Grandpa once said that the ancient pellet can be used as a final gift to the Thousand Desolation Divine Sect if weve no plans to use it on ourselves... Whatever happens, theres no way were surrendering it to those villains!


Is that ancient pellet really that amazing? Yun Che asked, but he really wasnt interested in it. No matter how good the pellet was, it couldnt possibly compare to Shen Xis Divine Water of Life and the Dragon Dawn Jade Nectar.


Of course its amazing! Its an inheritance from our forefather! Yun Shang said without hesitation, However, the forefather said that only a genius who has attracted a four stage lightning tribulation at minimum during Divine Spirit Realm is qualified to consume the pellet... so far, there hasnt been anyone like this in the clan. Even Big Brother Xiang has only attracted a three stage lightning tribulation when he was a Divine Spirit.


Yun Che smiled at her and patted her on the shoulder. He said, Ill stay here until the day of the deadline. You may come to me if you have any problems you wish to ask about.


Mm! Yun Ches promise immediately improved Yun Shangs mood. Even the light in her eyes seemed much brighter.


It was at this moment Yun Xiang came through the door and said, Shanger! So this is where you are. The chief wants to take you to the forefathers altar himself to pray. Quickly.


Ah... okay, Yun Shang nodded before bidding Yun Che goodbye, Ill come look for you tomorrow, Senior.


Go.


Yun Xiang gave Yun Che a nod before leaving with Yun Shang.


Are you going to save them? Qianye Yinger suddenly broke her long silence and asked.


No, Yun Che answered, The Yun Family I was part of gave up on their roots of darkness completely many generations ago. Today, we are barely related to this Yun Clan by blood. This is their fate to fight. Ive already afforded them my greatest benevolence when I gave them one last hope to cling to.


But you will keep that girl alive no matter what, am I right?


Yes, Yun Che answered without hesitation.


Qianye Yinger stopped talking and closed her eyes. Only she knew what she was thinking about.
