Chapter 36: Perfect Situation

“I want to hear about your choice as well!”

Unexpectedly, after Yuan Lianyao spoke, even Zhao Zhenghao, the leader of the Zhao Clan, said so to Yu Yuan seriously.

On the Yu Clan’s side, the old man, Yu Can didn’t need to speak for everyone to know his attitude.

Of course, he would stand on Yu Yuan’s side no matter what!

It was strange that a young cultivator of just the Meridian Breakthrough realm could be the centerpiece of the core leaders’ attention.

Most didn’t know the story behind all these.

“Why do we even need to care about him?”

Zhao Xi expressed his confusion first. “We don’t need his permission to act!”

Zhao Yafu nodded and said, “Yeah, why?”

Of course, she was just pretending to not know the reason. Zhao Zhenghao valued Yu Yuan’s attitude because Yu Yuan had promised to help him accomplish the Swallowing Dragon plan.

Moreover, judging from Yu Yuan’s experienced performance, it was very likely that he could be an important part of their plan.

As long as the Swallowing Dragon plan was successful and the Yinlong Lake didn’t end up revenging on the Zhao Clan, the clan would probably become one of the top-notch clans in the Silver Moon Empire.

There might even be hope for them to become one of the top clans like the Su Clan!

“Sister Mayoress, of course, I’m on your side.”

Yu Yuan said earnestly, pointing to the river of flames floating above the heads, and said, “You have also seen your father’s mighty power! The Fire Halberd, along with his extraordinary power, already solves all the problems that the city has.”

He made up his mind.

With An Ziqing’s current ability, if she really wants to leave, she could do so at any time.

No need for him to worry about her.

“Great, looks like you still have some sense left in your brain.” Yuan Lianyao said, “Now, she destroyed my precious lotus and seriously injured me! No matter who she is, I’ll make her pay!”

“Our Clan will fight alongside the Mayoress,” Zhao Zhenghao shouted loudly. “The remnants of the Huang Clan have to be cleared immediately!”

As soon as he said that, he led the people from his clan toward Huang Fan.

Zhao Dongsheng also called up the remaining people from the Zhao Clan to finish off those of the Huang Clan hiding on the other side of the mountain.

“We will also do our best to help out.” Yu Can nodded.

He ordered Yu Wei, Yu Ji, and others to go with the Zhao Clan toward the deeper parts of the Jinluo Mountain caves.

Soon, only Yu Li was left beside him.

Since his grandson Yu Yuan had made a decision to not go with An Ziqing, there was no point in remaining silent anymore.

With the absolute power from Yuan Qiufang and the Heavenly Weapon Fire Halberd, even the Zhao Clan was determined to stay, not to mention their Yu Clan.

Additionally, the Huang Clan was the one who broke his legs.

Today was the perfect day to avenge all the hate altogether.

“What a scene.”

Yu Yuan stepped away from the chaos, looking left and right between the Yuan Qiufang and the Zhao Clan.

One after another, the people from the Zhao Clan and Yu Clan disappeared into the caves of the mountain.

From the depths of the caves, the glaring lights of weapons and screams from the Huang Clan people occasionally came out.

Yu Yuan thought about it for a second. If there were no more twists, the Huang Clan shouldn’t be a problem anymore, or rather, the Huang Clan would not exist past today.

It is very likely that none of them will live past today.

“Hey, remember that her brother is still in the cave.” Yu Yuan suddenly reminded everyone, “Right now might be his weakest moment, don’t miss this perfect opportunity.”

Zhao Dongsheng’s face changed slightly.

“We don’t need everyone to chase after the Huang Clan.” Yu Yuan added, “Arrange some of your best fighters, and trace the smell of blood to find where he is.”

“Haha! Got it!”

“Let’s go get him!”

“Young master, by staying here at the Dark Moon City is a disgrace to your talent.” An Ziqing’s voice came from different directions in the valley. “The Divine Blood Sect is the best place for you. Perhaps in less than a hundred years, you will be qualified to be the leader of the sect.”

After Yu Yuan’s wake, she had carefully observed for a long time and determined that Yu Yuan was exactly the person that her sect needed.

From his cultivation talents, brutal style action, to his excellent knowledge, every aspect of him matched perfectly to the Divine Blood Sect.

She even considered that as long as Yu Yuan wanted to, she could even sacrifice her senior brother.

“I have nothing to do with this anymore.”

Yu Yuan came to where Zhao Yafu and Zhao Xi were and said with a relaxed smile, “No matter how the battle will turn out, there’s nothing I can do at this point.”

“Isn’t that nice?” Zhao Yafu said enviously, “You are literally the safest person here. If the worse happens, you’ll just end up in the Divine Blood Sect.”

With An Ziqing’s convincing attitude, even if she won, she would still spare Yu Yuan’s life and bring him back to her sect.

To make Yu Yuan happy, she might not even kill anyone from the Yu Clan.

If she lost, Yu Yuan would still be considered a hero that saved the city from a disaster.

Both Yuan Liangyao and Zhao Clan will be here to support him.

He and the rest of the Yu Clan would be greatly benefited from the disappearance of the Huang Clan.

They would rightfully take over the whole mountain and the mines around the valley.

At this point, Yu Yuan and the Yu Clan would be benefited no matter what.

“Sister Zhao, give me your hand.”

Suddenly, Yu Yuan spread out his palms and motioned Zhao Yafu to put her hands on his.

“Yu Yuan! How dare you!” Zhao Xi said displeased.

“That’s not what I meant.” Yu Yuan didn’t seem to care. “As you saw, today’s battle was intimidating, and I just want to check to make sure that nothing harmful gets to you. It’s for your own good to be cautious, especially during such a critical stage.”

“I am by her side the whole time! What can go wrong?” Zhao Xi hissed out the words in slight anger.

Of course, he didn’t know what Yu Yuan meant by in a critical stage.

Zhao Yafu, on the other hand, knew clearly. “Brother Yu, are you sure right now?”

Yu Yuan nodded.

“Well then… alright.” Zhao Yafu’s pretty face blushed a little in unease. She placed her small hands in Yu Yuan’s palm and said nervously, “But they are still fighting right now.”

“Which is exactly why I chose this moment. The intense release of spiritual power and Qi might even trick it to come out.” Yu Yuan said seriously.

The “it”, of course, was the spirit of the young dragon from Yinlong Lake.

“Be careful.” Zhao Yafu was worried. “It has been at unrest in my body. Sometimes when I’m not careful it will…”

Zhao Xi, standing right next to them, heard the conversation clearly.

He was not stupid, but after listening for a while, his body suddenly shook.

He figured out most of it.

Silently, he prepared his power to get ready to protect Yu Yuan and Zhao Yafu.

With her hands in his palms, Yu Yuan took a few seconds to study them.

“Nine Bright Heavenly Cycles!”

He silently said so in his mind while quickly remembering the details of the method.

His inner power cycles through with his breath, and soon, nine weak spots of light started to glow around his palm.

Zhao Yafu’s eyes brightened up.

She was astonished by the sense of comfort that was created from Yu Yuan’s hands. The force was luring the young dragon’s spirit away from herself.

Bang!

A spot of blue light was released from Zhao Yafu’s little hand.

Her white, jade-like forearm seemed to have changed in color.

The skin of her forearm became crystal clear.

Inside her arm, there was a slender, silky blue blood light, almost like an earthworm, flowing along her blood vessels in cautiousness.

Zhao Yafu bit her lower lip. Despite the pain from the “worm’s” movements, she resisted her instinct to cry or yell.

Yu Yuan’s eyes stared at the blue light, knowing that it must be the dragon spirit.

“It has been eating away your blood, soon your three souls might be damaged.”

“What should I do?” Zhao Yafu asked in a shaky voice. She didn’t want to die just yet.
