Chapter 6555 Patriarch Boran

Once Feng You and the others emerged from the spatial gate, the gateway started to fade, causing the higher-ups’ expressions to sink.

A closing gate meant only one thing—there were no more survivors of the divine clans in the heaven region’s battlefield.

Every disciple who entered the heaven region’s battlefield carried a soul jade tablet linked to their life. If any of them were alive, the spatial gate would flash with heavenly light to summon them back. The power of the nine heavens would forcibly drag them out.

For the gate to fade now meant all active soul jades within had gone dark.

The Long, Ye, Zhao, and Jiang clans had sent in more than ten million disciples. Yet only a handful from the Jiang clan returned. The other three clans had been nearly annihilated. None of them could accept such a result.

“Jiang Yue’e, speak!” the Zhao clan leader roared. “If you hide even a single truth, I’ll kill you!”

The other clans glared at the Jiang clan’s disciples with killing intent.

Their own disciples were dead, yet the Jiang clan still had survivors. Hence, their first reaction was suspicion. At this moment, a single poorly chosen word from Jiang Yue’e could ignite a bloodbath.

The Jiang clan’s higher-ups were enraged by the accusations, but they held their tongues. Their clan leader was the one who stepped forward.

“Yue’e, tell us what happened. Do not conceal anything. I trust that the Jiang clan’s disciples are honorable. Speak only the truth,” said the Jiang clan leader.

On the surface, there was nothing wrong with what he was saying. But in truth, he was hinting to Jiang Yue’e to be careful with what she said. She should only say anything honorable and aboveboard.

If there was anything shady, then she shouldn’t say it. Otherwise, the furious masses around them would tear them apart before anyone could intervene.

But what surprised everyone was that Jiang Yue’e showed no fear. Instead, she directly pointed at the four clan leaders and cursed them out.

“What is there to say?! You idiots, how many times did I beg you not to target Long Chen? I pleaded over and over, and you ignored me! Now look at the result! You fools caused the deaths of so many disciples! I’m sure you’re happy now!”

By the end, she was roaring her heart out. Thinking of millions of the Jiang clan disciples who had died for no reason, she even cursed her own clan leader.

“You in particular! You’re a fool! You said that I was going to lead the Jiang clan’s disciples, yet you secretly supported that idiot Jiang Zitao! If not for him, not a single Jiang clan disciple would have died! All of this is your fault!”

No one had expected Jiang Yue’e to publicly insult her own clan leader. Such disrespect was a grave sin.

“Yue’e, have you gone mad?! What happened inside?!” the Jiang clan leader shouted, too shocked and angry to react properly.

“You’re trying to say Long Chen defeated Biluo and wiped out all our disciples?” the Zhao clan leader snapped. “Nonsense! Long Chen doesn’t have that ability. Speak the truth or—”

“Wait, where is Long Tianrui?! Her power is only second to Biluo, and she has a slight relationship with Long Chen. Where is she?!” interjected someone from the Long clan.

“To prevent the Long clan from clashing with Long Chen, Long Tianrui fought Long Biluo to the death. The Long clan actually had the chance to retreat intact, but Long Biluo just had to drag all of them to the grave.” Jiang Yue’e sneered.

Jiang Yue’e couldn’t be bothered to filter her words anymore. She had given up on the divine clans’ higher-ups long ago. These old fools still judged the world using their outdated, turbid eyes.

However, the world had already changed. Because of that, their ways and viewpoints had doomed their clans’ future.

Jiang Yue’e and Feng Fei had seen this coming from the start. They had done everything to prevent it, but the higher-ups refused to listen.

Sometimes, the higher-ups were so annoyed with them that they just said yes to get rid of the two girls. But then, they never did anything.

Feng Fei understood Long Chen the best. She had met him in the mortal world and watched him climb up step by step. Anyone who had tried to stop him met a terrible fate.

Knowing this, Feng Fei had done so much for the Jiang clan to avoid offending Long Chen. She was even willing to throw away her own life for the clan.

However, what did she get in return? The higher-ups refused to listen to them, and the two girls had to watch as millions of the Jiang clan’s disciples were sent to the death god’s embrace. They were powerless to prevent it.

Finally, the resentment and anger that they had been suppressing all this time burst.

“What nonsense!” a Long clan expert roared. “How could Biluo possibly kill Tianrui? Since you refuse to speak honestly, we’ll soulsearch you!”

He lunged toward Jiang Yue’e.

The Jiang clan leader was alarmed. The situation was spiraling out of control. At this rate, the four divine clans would completely fracture.

Before he could move to intervene, a terrifying aura erupted. Space itself twisted, and a divine might crashed down, freezing the entire plaza in an instant.

Whether it was the disciples or the clan leaders themselves, they couldn’t move an inch. The entire world was frozen by a terrifying law power. In front of it, everyone felt as minuscule as ants.

At this moment, a large, white-robed man appeared in the sky.

He looked to be in his thirties—with bright eyes, sharp eyebrows, and a face like a chiseled blade. His icy expression exuded a murderous aura.

“This is... heaven earth law manifestation...”

Everyone was shocked, instantly knowing who this person was.

Then, the suffocating law pressure vanished as abruptly as it came.

“Greetings, Patriarch Boran!”

The four clan leaders immediately got on their knees. Other than the four clan leaders, no one else knew this person’s identity. But seeing the clan leaders kneeling, they followed suit.

Patriarch Boran snorted. He ignored them all and strode directly to Long Biluo.

With a wave of his hand, the black runes invading her wound shrieked and tore free, gathering into a black orb in the patriarch’s palm.

“The laws of Purgatory? No wonder even the Jiuli Tower’s core energy was powerless.”

His icy expression finally changed when he saw these black runes up close. After taking out a bottle, he threw the runes inside.

BOOM!

The bottle exploded instantly, disintegrating in a burst of flames.

Patriarch Boran narrowed his eyes. He hadn’t expected a masterless rune to possess such an explosive will. It actually chose to self-detonate.

“Patriarch,” the Ye clan leader asked, “why are you here? Weren’t you in seclusion within the Jiuli Tower...?”

“The divine clans’ disciples were slaughtered. Do you think I can count on you fools to fix things?” Patriarch Boran replied, his expression darkening once more.

His terrifying law power manifested again, freezing them where they stood.

“Is he a legendary Heavenly Sovereign? Even the aura coming out of him is already so terrifying.”

Jiang Yue’e and Feng You were both stunned. His presence was even more overpowering than the Heaven Earth Cauldron’s manifestation.

Patriarch Boran turned to Jiang Yue’e and Feng You. “Girl, tell me what happened? Don’t worry, with me here, you don’t need to fear these useless people.”

Just as Jiang Yue’e was about to explain, an ear-piercing alarm rang throughout the divine clans.

“What is happening?” Patriarch Boran asked, frowning.

“Reporting to the patriarch, the Brahma line has issued an urgent request for aid!” the Ye clan leader shouted.

An enormous existence like the Brahma line was asking for help? Everyone was stunned by this.

Jiang Yue’e and Feng You exchanged a look. Both thought of the same white-robed figure.

“How interesting,” Patriarch Boran murmured. “Let’s take a look.”

In the next instant, he vanished.
