543: Excuse me

Canglang led the group and charged directly into the room.

The surrounding Guardians looked at Canglang and the others with amused expressions.

They had been hiding their presence, but the moment Canglang entered the room, everyone released their Qi.

At this moment, Canglang felt his head spinning.

What kind of place had he come to?!

The surrounding Supreme intent, Chaos Qi, and even Emperor's might?!

Who were these men, women, and children?!

The two Old Ancestors of the Canglang Clan were the first to recognize these people as Guardians of the ancient city. One of the Old Ancestors hurriedly stepped forward and said with slight embarrassment, "Greetings, Guardians. What a coincidence that you are here too. Um... are you here to find Taichu?"

"To tell you the truth, we are also here to find Taichu. After all, the talent he displayed earlier was truly terrifying, so we brought some people to admire his appearance up close!"

Hearing this, Canglang seemed to wake from a dream, a hypocritical smile hanging on his face: "Yes, yes, yes! That is exactly it! I said at the time that Taichu left a bit too hurriedly."

"So it was because he was chatting with Clan Chief Bai here. Since that is the case, I will not disturb you. After all, there are things to do within the Family!"

Hum... Just after the people from the Canglang Clan intended to retreat, the entire inn was suddenly permeated by wisps of radiance. It was an ancient array.

An old man among the Guardians took a step forward. With just this simple step, a massive ancient array was formed. Within the ancient array, the aura of eternal ages faintly emerged. This was a Seal, and now the Canglang Clan could not leave the inn at all.

Seeing this, the Old Ancestor of the Canglang Clan said, "What is the meaning of this, Guardians? We were already planning to leave. Surely you don't intend to keep us here, do you?"

Nian Guowang wanted to laugh when he heard this. However, his stiff face made his forced smile look somewhat chilling.

The other Guardians immediately distanced themselves from him, their eyes full of disgust.

Nian Guowang was clearly accustomed to everyone's behavior and said to the Old Ancestor of the Canglang Clan, "Didn't your Clan Chief just say it? That he wanted to devour the hope of our Human Race."

The Canglang Old Ancestor asked in confusion, "The hope of the Human Race?"

"What? Does this kid not look like it?"

Seeing Nian Guowang reach out and point at Lin Ye, the Canglang Old Ancestor paused. Thinking about it, it made sense; this suddenly appearing boy from the Human Race possessed peerless talent through the ages.

The reason the two Old Ancestors followed the Canglang Clan Chief in his reckless behavior was because of Taichu. In their view, as long as the Clan Chief devoured that Human Race boy, his peerless talent would belong to their Canglang Clan!

Not to mention, they could also obtain half of Bai Lingyun's Origin.

But who the hell knew that all these Guardians would come at once! If they had known earlier, how could they have delivered themselves to their doorstep!

For a moment, everyone from the Canglang Clan had a mournful look on their faces.

Bai Lingyun almost laughed out loud. The Clan Chief of the Canglang Clan had coveted her for a long time. If he could be slaughtered by the Guardians now, it would naturally be a good thing.

The White Fox Clan was weak and isolated. If they went to war directly with the Canglang Clan, they would certainly suffer heavy losses or even be exterminated. The Guardians were different; as Guardians of the ancient city, even if the entire Canglang Clan attacked, they would likely end up being wiped out.

Seeing that these people had no intention of letting them go, the Canglang Old Ancestor spoke again, "You are the Guardians of the ancient city. Although you are also of the Human Race, you protect the ancient city, not people! Therefore, you should not interfere in this matter!"

"Huh?!"

The muscles on Nian Guowang's face twitched, and he immediately walked forward.

Whoosh!!! He raised one hand and slammed it toward the Canglang Old Ancestor. When the latter saw this, he wanted to block it on the spot, but before he could use the spiritual power in his body, he instantly froze in place.

A room full of Guardians, including the presence of an Emperor—how could they let him act rashly?!

Slap! A crisp sound of a slap echoed in the room. The Canglang Old Ancestor was instantly sent flying, his head smashing into the wall, creating a large crater.

Fortunately, there were array patterns blocking the room; otherwise, this casual strike from Nian Guowang would likely have affected the entire inn, or even half the city.

He did not know how many years he had remained in the Supreme Realm. Let alone the two in front of him, even if a few stronger ones came, he would not care in the slightest.

"You!"

The Canglang Clan Chief's pupils constricted. When he entered the room earlier, he had been frightened by the sight of the Guardians gathered together, but in his view, the Guardians' profession was to protect the ancient city. He thought that if he backed down, the other party would not make things too difficult for him.

Who could have imagined that Nian Guowang would actually attack his Old Ancestor directly!

"Guardians, you cannot do this! This city was condensed by the sages of the Human Race using their Supreme Dao Bone! Do you want to commit a massacre within this city?!"

The Canglang Clan Chief's expression was as righteous and awe-inspiring as could be. Someone who didn't know the truth would think he was the victim.

Hearing this, a trace of mockery appeared on Nian Guowang's face: "Weren't you the ones who delivered yourselves to our doorstep? Furthermore, hasn't this place been covered by your Magic Treasure? If we kill you, who would know? We wouldn't be breaking our promise either."

Upon hearing that they were going to kill him, the Canglang Clan Chief's eyes hardened. He suddenly struck, pushing the two Old Ancestors in front of him away, while he transformed into his original form. Accompanied by a howl, he wanted to break through the Seal directly.

Boom!!! The Canglang Clan Chief turned into a streak of light and slammed into the Seal. Let alone breaking the Seal, the transparent array didn't even ripple in the slightest.

On the contrary, he was directly sent flying back by the recoil force, falling to the ground in a sorry state.

The two Canglang Old Ancestors looked at their Clan Chief, their eyes full of killing intent. This brat actually took the opportunity to push them out? Such a disrespectful wretch, his time as Clan Chief was over.

Thinking of this, one of the Elders said to the group, "We came here today indeed for Taichu and Bai Lingyun, but since you are all here, we intend to hand over the Clan Chief... no, we will hand Cang Yu directly to you."

"Cang Yu is our Clan Chief; is this apology enough?!"

"Not enough!"

Nian Guowang shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Can a mere Clan Chief compensate for your intention to harm the hope of our Human Race? There is no such good deal in this world!"

Sigh... The two Canglang Old Ancestors looked at each other. They knew that they would have to pay a heavy price today!

The world here had been covered; only by leaving this Seal could they possibly open up the world. If they didn't pay a heavy price, these Guardians would really slaughter them!
