125: Chapter 125 The East Sea Demon Clan's Conspiracy

"Yitian, you lost?" Ye Yisong saw Ye Yitian's current state and knew that the kid had likely been eliminated, and was taking it out on the spirit melon.

"I had terrible luck today. In the second round, I met another Martial Master Late Stage Martial Artist," Ye Yitian complained.

"Yitian, being able to advance to the Top 100 of the Prefecture Examination is already very impressive," Ye Yisong consoled. "With your Rank 1 High Grade Alchemy, plus the points from the craft assessment, you might still be able to enter the Top 50 of the Prefecture Examination."

"Many thanks for your kind words, Thirteenth Brother." Ye Yitian's eyes lit up, he wiped his mouth clean, and regained his energy.

"Thirteenth Brother, you're awesome!" Ye Yiguang gave a thumbs up.

"Thirteenth Young Master, congratulations!" Uncle Jiefu congratulated.

"Thanks," Ye Yisong responded.

Ye Yisong had won two consecutive matches and directly advanced to the Top 50 of the Prefecture Examination. Welcoming a short break, he greeted everyone, went alone to the attic in the back, found an empty seat with a view of the combat scene, and lay down comfortably.

As of now, including Ye Yisong, a total of seven people had won two matches and advanced to the Top 50 of the Prefecture Examination early.

It is worth mentioning that all seven of these people were Martial Master Late Stage powerhouses. It seems everyone had an idea in mind; upon encountering a Martial Master Late Stage Martial Artist, they basically chose to protect themselves and preserve their strength to serve the Family.

Those who weren't clear-headed were already preparing to restart in eighteen years.

...

While the Prefecture Examination in Cangjiang Prefecture was in full swing, hundreds of thousands of miles away in the East Sea Black Flood Dragon Clan territory, they welcomed a few important guests.

"Clan Leader Cang Lan, you called us here, what is the important matter?" Clan Leader Xue Lang of the Giant Shark Clan stuck out a big belly and broke into the central palace of the Black Flood Dragon Clan without waiting for the guards to report.

The layers of Restrictions set up in the central palace of the Black Flood Dragon Clan were like paper in front of the Giant Shark, with no defensive effect.

"Clan Leader Cang Lan, I'm here, why don't you come out to see me?" Clan Leader Huan Mei of the Jellyfish Clan shouted shrilly.

"Two old brothers, calm down." Clan Leader Cang Lan swayed his body and appeared before them. "Please sit in my palace for a moment. Clan Leader Ji Yan and Clan Leader Yin Suo will be here soon. When everyone is here, we will discuss the big matter together."

"Hmph, Clan Leader Cang Lan, I heard that a Rank 4 Black Flood Dragon in your clan was killed by the Human Race, hahaha." Clan Leader Xue Lang said gloatingly. Good news doesn't go out, but bad news travels a thousand miles. With such a major event happening in the Black Flood Dragon Clan, how could it be hidden from the other major clans of the Inner Sea?

Before Clan Leader Cang Lan could answer, Clan Leader Ji Yan of the Deep Sea Giant Turtle Clan and Clan Leader Yin Suo of the Spearfish Clan arrived, their voices coming before them: "Clan Leader Cang Lan, you didn't summon us here to avenge your clan, did you?"

"Hmph, my Jellyfish Clan does not do business at a loss. Don't think about letting my Jellyfish Clan avenge your Black Flood Dragon Clan for free." Clan Leader Huan Mei coldly snorted.

The four Yaos actually knew it in their hearts on the way here. If the Black Flood Dragon Clan suffered such a big loss this time without any action, they wouldn't be able to mix in the Inner Sea in the future and would be mocked by the entire Inner Sea Yao Race.

"This King invited the four of you here, not to watch my clan's joke." Clan Leader Cang Lan roared with dissatisfaction, his Rank 5 Late Stage aura erupting, stunning the four Yaos who were watching the show.

The four Yaos were not afraid of him. In terms of strength, the four Yaos were themselves Rank 5 Middle Stage great Yaos, and there were no lack of Rank 5 Late Stage great Yaos in their clans. If they really fought, no one would be afraid of anyone.

Having finished watching the fun, they still had to give Face to Clan Leader Cang Lan. Seeing him angry, the four no longer ridiculed the Black Flood Dragon Clan and quietly waited for Clan Leader Cang Lan to state his intention.

"Everyone already knows about the unfortunate event that happened in my clan some time ago. Presumably, you have all guessed the purpose of this King calling you here." Clan Leader Cang Lan scanned the circle. Seeing that the four Yaos did not pick up his words, he knew that he had been too aggressive just now, causing them to have some resistance.

After all, he was the one asking for help. Clan Leader Cang Lan had to lower his posture again and continued: "This King will not beat around the bush with you all. This King wants to launch another small beast tide before the hundred-year great beast tide to attack and destroy Cangjiang Prefecture to avenge my son."

Clan Leader Cang Lan summoned the four major Yao clans of the Inner Sea this time, originally to avenge Cang Ming, not for that fallen Rank 4 Black Flood Dragon.

A Rank 4 Black Flood Dragon dying in the clan made Clan Leader Cang Lan angry too, but not to this extent!

But the revenge for his son, Cang Ming, must be avenged!

After this battle, Cang Ming's flesh and blood were stripped away by five or six percent. His appearance looked miserable. If it weren't for Clan Leader Cang Lan arriving in time, Cang Ming would have fallen into the hands of those three humans.

More importantly, Cang Ming's second Bloodline atavism made him the Black Flood Dragon closest to the first-generation Old Ancestor in the clan, and he was expected to break through to the Rank 6 Demon Emperor.

Now, everything had become a bubble. How could Clan Leader Cang Lan not be angry? He wished he could strip the skin and pull the tendons of those three humans now and make them into eternal sea lamps to hang at the palace entrance to resolve the resentment in his heart.

"Oh, I don't know which worthy nephew was injured at the hands of human Martial Artists." The Giant Shark asked curiously.

"My little Cang Ming, his flesh and blood were stripped away by seven or eight percent by those damned humans." When Clan Leader Cang Lan mentioned this, he couldn't help roaring a few times.

The four Yaos heard this and not only did not sympathize with him, but they looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts. They had long heard that the Black Flood Dragon Clan had a Black Flood Dragon named—Cang Ming, who actually had a second Bloodline atavism, with talent that shocked the Yaos, and was once feared by many Yao clans in the Inner Sea.

Now, with Cang Ming so seriously injured, he was the good Black Flood Dragon in everyone's eyes.

"That is truly unfortunate!" Clan Leader Ji Yan consoled, though it was unknown whether it was sincere or fake.

"I don't know, Brother Cang Lan, how you plan to launch this beast tide." Clan Leader Ji Yan spoke on behalf of everyone, both asking about Clan Leader Cang Lan's plan and asking what price Clan Leader Cang Lan intended to pay to ask their four clans to take action.

According to the arrangements of the You Emperor, five years later would be the hundred-year great beast tide, which would be a slaughterhouse for the human and Yao Races once every hundred years.

To cope with this advanced great beast tide, several clans were preparing carefully, trying to avoid casualties among their clansmen.

If one can survive, who wants to die!

Now, to fight a battle with humans for the private feud of the Black Flood Dragon Clan, if the price paid by Clan Leader Cang Lan was not enough, the several clans would not agree.

"The place we are attacking this time is only the territory of Cangjiang Prefecture, not the entire East Sea Province. My idea is that our five clans will be divided into three routes. My Black Flood Dragon Clan will go on one route alone; the Giant Shark Clan and the Deep Sea Giant Turtle Clan will go on one route; the Jellyfish Clan and the Spearfish Clan will go on one route."

"My clan will go to break Cangjiang Prefecture to avenge our clansmen. As for the other two routes, one will actually attack Linhai Prefecture, and one will feign an attack on Nanya Commandery. As for which route is the real attack and which is the feigned attack, that depends on the four of you."

"The route that attacks for real will bear the same risks as my Black Flood Dragon Clan. My clan is willing to pay two Rank 5 High Grade great medicines or secret treasures, eight Rank 5 Medium Grade great medicines or secret treasures, and ten Rank 5 Low Grade great medicines; for the route that feigns an attack, my clan is willing to pay four Rank 5 Medium Grade great medicines or secret treasures, and ten Rank 5 Low Grade great medicines."

"I don't know, brothers, how you will choose?"
