Chapter 696 - Declare War! (2)

Chapter 696 Declare War! (2)

The Northern Realm declared war on the Xianjian Clan!

This sudden move shocked countless forces in the Xuanhuang World!

No one had thought that Ye Xuan would suddenly declare war on the Xianjian Clan!

The Xianjian Clan was not an ordinary force. It was very influential and powerful in the Xuanhuang World.

However, Ye Xuan declared war on the Xianjian Clan so easily. What was he going to do?

To dominate the Xuanhuang World?

Xianjian Clan.

The Xianjian Clan was located in the south of the Xuanhuang World. They had their own independent realm, Immortal Sword Realm.

In the Xuanhuang World, the Xianjian Clan could claim to be the first sect of sword cultivators. Since ancient times, almost all the famous sword cultivators in the Xuanhuang World were produced by the Xianjian Clan. Tens of thousands of years ago, the Xianjian Clan was the first force in the Xuanhuang World.

At that time, the Xianjian Clan produced a strong man in Unknown Realm, Sword Empress Tingyun!

There was her statue in the Dengfeng Pavilion.

Although the Xianjian Clan was not as powerful as it was back then, it had a solid foundation.

In the Xianjian Palace.

There were only three people.

One of them was a middle-aged man in a blue robe. He had a delicate face, long hair over his shoulders, and a faint smile on his face.

A ray of sword light rotated around the finger of his right hand.

This person was the suzerain of the Xianjian Clan, Jian Shifeng!

Apart from the Xuanhuang God Warrior List, there was another list in the Xuanhuang World, Supreme List.

All the people on this list were the most powerful men in Limit Realm in the Xuanhuang World.

The former King of Northern Realm was also on the list and he was ranked seventh.

Jian Shifeng was ranked fifth.

An old man was standing in front of the middle-aged man. He was wearing a wide black robe, and his hands were hidden in his sleeves. Moreover, he was carrying a big black iron sword on his back!

A young man was standing beside the old man!

The young man was in his twenties, wearing a white robe and standing there with a sword in his arms.

This young man was the guy ranked sixth on the Xuanhuang God Warrior List, Yue Jinzhao.

Jian Shifeng suddenly smiled, “It never occurred to me that Ye Xuan would declare war on our Xianjian Clan directly.”

Speaking of this, he looked at Yue Jinzhao, “Jinzhao, what do you think?”

After a short meditation, Yue Jinzhao said, “There are two reasons why this man declared war on our Xianjian Clan. First, the backer behind him is very powerful and can make a move on us at any time. Second, he is having a zero sum game with us!”

Jian Shifeng said with a smile, “Tell me more details!”

Yue Jinzhao nodded, “The backer behind him is undoubtedly powerful, but it is very likely that she can’t take action at any time. That’s why Ye Xuan is so arrogant. The more arrogant he is, the more we might be afraid. As long as we are afraid, he could be in the upper hand. Moreover, if he is so arrogant and fearless, other forces would also have misgivings.”

Speaking of this, he gave a slight pause and continued, “Just like in the secular world, the richer one is, the more low-key he is. On the contrary, those who are poor or a little rich will try to be conspicuous. At the moment, Ye Xuan might just be bluffing!”

Jian Shifeng looked at Yue Jinzhao, “Why do you think the backer behind him can’t make any moves?”

Yue Jinzhao said in a soft tone, “That woman appeared twice. The first time, she killed the marshal of the Northern Realm, and the second time, she killed King of Northern Realm. In the two times, her avatars appeared but her real body didn’t. Moreover, as far as I know, the reason why she appeared was that the former King of Northern Realm took the initiative to find her through some methods... I guess Ye Xuan has no way to contact her.”

Jian Shifeng asked, “What makes you think so?”

Yue Jinzhao said, “It’s just a guess.”

Jian Shifeng kept silent.

At this time, Yue Jinzhao suddenly said, “Suzerain, I have something to say.”

Jian Shifeng nodded, “Go ahead!”

Yue Jinzhao said, “There’s really no need for our Xianjian Clan to make an enemy of Ye Xuan. First, the woman in plain dress behind him is at least in Limit Realm. If such strong men madly retaliate against our Xianjian Clan, our Xianjian Clan will suffer heavy losses and even lose our status in the Xuanhuang World. Moreover, even if we obtain Ye Xuan’s supreme treasure, our Xianjian Clan will become a public target.”

Jian Shifeng said with a smile, “I understand what you said. Even if our Xianjian Clan gets that treasure, others will gain the benefit in the end. But...”

At this point, he stopped and did not go on.

A moment later, Jian Shifeng suddenly said, “Elder Nanshan, Jinzhao, you may retreat!”

Yue Jinzhao and the old man bowed respectfully, turned around, and retreated.

After Yue Jinzhao left with the old man, a woman suddenly appeared in the palace.

The woman was in her twenties. She was wearing a white dress on which a lying black wolf was embroidered. The black wolf was lying prone and looking ahead with fierce eyes. It looked ferocious, as if it were going to attack people at any time.

Beautiful!

The woman was beautiful beyond any description. Both her face and figure were perfect without any flaws.

Jian Shifeng looked at the woman. The woman smiled, bent her finger, and clicked. A white jade bottle appeared in front of Jian Shifeng.

Jian Shifeng glanced at the jade bottle, and a covetous look flashed across his eyes, but soon, his expression changed, and then he looked at the woman, “Miss Qi, why is there only half a Dengfeng Elixir?”

The woman said with a smile, “When things are done, you will get the other half.”

Jian Shifeng looked at the woman, “Miss Qi, who is the woman behind Ye Xuan?”

The woman shook her head and smiled, “That has nothing to do with you!”

Jian Shifeng kept silent for a long time and suddenly returned the jade bottle in his hand to the woman, “Miss Qi, our Xianjian Clan quits.”

The woman looked at Jian Shifeng without speaking.

Jian Shifeng said with a smile, “I indeed want to make a breakthrough, but I’d rather give it up if it’s at the cost of our whole Xianjian Clan.”

The woman chuckled, “There are no more than ten Dengfeng Elixirs in the Xuanhuang World. Without them, even if you are a rare genius, you can’t enter Dengfeng Realm from Limit Realm.”

Jian Shifeng kept silent.

The woman continued, “Suzerain Jian, you should know the difference between Limit Realm and Dengfeng Realm!”

Dengfeng Realm!

Jian Shifeng shook his head, “The cost is too high! Our Xianjian Clan is no match for the woman behind Ye Xuan!”

The woman said with a smile, “The cost is high? Suzerain Jian, you could establish countless Xianjian Clans after you enter Dengfeng Realm, couldn’t you? Besides, we’ll deal with the woman behind Ye Xuan. What are you afraid of?”

After a moment of silence, Jian Shifeng looked at the woman, “I’m afraid to end like the former King of Northern Realm.”

The woman shook her head, “It’s not that we didn’t stop him, but that he went to the woman in plain dress without authorization, which eventually led to his own destruction. Otherwise, even ten Ye Xuan can do nothing with him.”

At this point, she looked at Jian Shifeng, “Suzerain Jian, this might be the only chance in your life to enter Dengfeng Realm. If you really don’t want to get involved in this, we won’t force you!”

Jian Shifeng looked at the woman, “Miss Qi, why don’t you go to him on your own?”

Miss Qi said with a smile, “Our goal is the woman behind him.”

Jian Shifeng said in a deep voice, “With your strength, you guys can kill Ye Xuan in a quick and effective way.”

Speaking of this, he seemed to think of something and looked at Miss Qi, “You are afraid of her!”

Miss Qi smiled without saying anything.

Jian Shifeng asked in a deep voice, “Miss Qi, how powerful on earth is that woman? Has she really entered Unknown Realm?”

Miss Qi shook her head, “As far as we know, she is at least in Dengfeng Realm!”

After a moment of silence, Jian Shifeng asked, “Why isn’t she in Unknown Realm?”

Miss Qi said with a smile, “If she is in Unknown Realm, she could directly destroy the whole Xuanhuang World with one stroke, but she didn’t do that. Why? Because she was afraid of some people in the Xuanhuang World. Moreover, if there is a man in Unknown Realm in the Four Dimensions World, those old men would know even if we don’t. Since she is not in Unknown Realm, why should we be so afraid of her?”

Jian Shifeng looked at the woman, “Miss Qi, I’ve been wondering what’s the use of that treasure?”

Miss Qi said with a smile, “We can enter the Five Dimensions World with that treasure!”

To enter the Five Dimensions World!

Jian Shifeng said in a soft tone, “I see...”

In fact, he had guessed the reason. If that treasure hadn’t had such a tempting function, these people wouldn’t have taken risks to provoke strong men like the woman in plain dress.

Entering the Five Dimensions World was too tempting. In particular, some people who had reached the bottleneck might have reached the end of the Four Dimensions World, and if they wanted to develop further, they had to enter the Five Dimensions World!

In short, the Five Dimensions World was their hope!

Miss Qi suddenly said, “Suzerain Jian, have you made up your mind?”

Jian Shifeng looked at Miss Qi, “I need a complete Dengfeng Elixir.”

Miss Qi looked at Jian Shifeng, “Deal!”

With that, she bent her finger and clicked. A white jade bottle landed in front of Jian Shifeng.

Jian Shifeng put away the white jade bottle and looked to the right, “Give my order. We’ll declare war on the Northern Realm!”

Miss Qi smiled, turned around, and left.

The Xianjian Clan declared war on the Northern Realm!

As soon as the news spread, the whole Xuanhuang World was in a sensation!

Ye Xuan had just entered the Northern Realm. He represented a newly rising force, and the Xianjian Clan was an old force in the Xuanhuang World. Now, the two forces openly declared war on each other, which meant that there would be unrest in the Xuanhuang World.

Some other forces in the Xuanhuang World were very happy, because someone finally took the lead in messing with Ye Xuan.

After the former King of Northern Realm was killed, there were naturally many people and forces who coveted the Northern Realm. However, because Ye Xuan took over the Northern Realm, these people had to give up the Northern Realm.

The local forces in the Xuanhuang World did not recognize Ye Xuan, an outsider, and would not recognize him, but they dare not easily provoke him. After all, Ye Xuan destroyed the Northern Realm and took in and reorganized the army of the Northern Realm.

Now, the Xianjian Clan began to make a move on Ye Xuan.

They would soon know the real strength of Ye Xuan and the woman behind him.

...

In Tianjiang City of the Northern Realm.

On this day, an old man carrying a big sword on his back suddenly appeared outside Tianjiang City.

He looked at the gate of Tianjiang City. The next moment, he suddenly pulled out his big sword and slashed forward.

Boom!

A current of Sword Qi swept to the distance like a flood, and the gate exploded directly in an instant, but the Sword Qi did not stop. It swept into the city and went straight to Ye Xuan’s location with a powerful force.
