Chapter 1978: I'm Useless

the man underground, Jiang Yun finally let out a breath and his eyes shone with light. He muttered to himself, "I didn't expect it, I was right!"Although the red rope just now moved incredibly fast,...Jiang Yun finally withdrew his gaze from the Refining Heaven Furnace and looked at Ye Danqiong, who was still bowing before him. He also saw the almost all unconscious members of the Tianxiang clan around them, as well as Ye Zhan and others trembling on their knees.

For the result before his eyes, Jiang Yun was not surprised.

When he learned of Ye Danqiong's identity, he had already thought it through.

Although he still doesn't know if Ye Danqiong is just a divine consciousness, a wisp of soul, or a complete person, as long as she is Ye Danqiong, the old patriarch of the Tianxiang Clan, then as long as she appears, the affairs of the Tianxiang Clan will surely be resolved.

Jiang Yun also clasped his fists and bowed to Ye Danqiong, saying: "Junior Jiang Yun is unworthy of the title 'Senior Master'. Senior doesn't have to be so polite!"

Yè Dānqióng raised her head, a wry smile gracing her stunning features. "Lord must be disappointed in the Tiāngxiāng Clan, wouldn't you say" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Although Gingercloud was indeed disappointed, she didn't want to say it outright in front of Ye Danqiong. She just shook her head lightly.

"Please wait a moment, Master!"

After uttering those words, Ye Danqiong turned away for the first time, truly looking at Ye Zhan and the others kneeling before her.

That look, brimming with boundless anger, landed squarely on Ye Rongzhong.

Ye Rongzhong's body was already trembling. Even though he was bowing his head, he could still clearly feel Ye Danqiong's gaze fixed on him, sending chills down his spine and making him want to curl up into a ball.

"Grand Elder, you are truly majestic!"

Ye Danqiong, although her voice was calm, there was a strong anger in her tone as she said: "You just said that times have changed. The rules I set are still valid, so you want to change these rules, don't you"

Upon hearing these words, everyone couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines.

Ye Rongzhong did indeed say that.

But at that time, if you had killed them, they wouldn't have imagined that they would see with their own eyes Dan Qiong Ancestor, who had set the rules back then, appear before them.

Ye Rongzhong didn't dare to speak anymore, lying there motionless.

Ye Danqiong continued, "If you insist on changing my rules, that's fine. Even if you refuse to submit to the Lord, I can understand."

But as the Grand Elder, you, out of greed for the secrets within the Sacred Medicine Stone, not only attacked your own clan members but also sought to assassinate the Lord.

“This is truly a rebellious and treasonous act.”

"Among my people, death is the only punishment!"

Just as Ye Danqiong uttered these words, Ye Rongzhong, who had been kneeling all along, suddenly let out a furious shout. His figure flickered and he appeared abruptly before Ye Danqiong. He raised his hand, surging with immense power, and struck down at Ye Danqiong fiercely.

Seeing this scene, Ye Chunyang and the others' hearts almost jumped out of their chests.

This Ye Rongzhong, facing the ancestor Dan Qiong, actually dared to sneak attack.

However, that's understandable.

Given his crimes, he was already a dead man walking. He might as well take a gamble and try to kill Ye Danqiong.

If successful, he Ye Rongzhong would still be the supreme elder of the Tianxiang Clan, and from then on, the entire Tianxiang Clan would belong to him.

Faced with Ye Rongzhong's sneak attack, Ye Danqiong remained unfazed, only a look of heartache appeared on her face as she said: "You are beyond saving, dying at my hands would be too easy for you. So, I won't let you die easily!"

Ye Danqiong stretched out a finger, and saw a fire dragon suddenly shoot out from the Refining Heaven Furnace. It opened its big mouth and swallowed Ye Rongzhong whole.

"Ah!"

When the fire dragon descended, Ye Rongzhong's body instantly burst into flames. A scream tore from his mouth, his facial features contorted in agony as he frantically cried out: "Grandmaster, please spare me! Grandmaster, please forgive me! I was wrong, I was wrong!"

Ye Danqiong said coldly, "From now on, you will be the guardian spirit of the alchemy furnace, enduring the torment of flames for eternity. You are not allowed to leave!"

This sentence stirred a faint ripple in Jiang Yun's heart.

I still remember that the Refining Heaven Furnace did indeed contain the souls of many disciples from the Medicine God Sect, even giving birth to a spirit and impersonating the Supreme Elder of the Medicine God Sect.

Now, Ye Rongzhong has clearly also become one of those souls.

As expected, the fire dragon wrapped around Ye Rongzhong and plunged back into the Liantian Furnace. Ye Rongzhong no longer made a sound, disappearing as if he had vanished without a trace.

The remaining eight people were now silent as mice, not daring to make a sound, not even Ye Chunyang.

And Ye Zhan was already nearly about to collapse on the ground.

Because he knew that next, the ancestor would settle accounts with him.

Although he wanted to say something, he couldn't find any excuse for himself.

As expected, Ye Danqiong's gaze fell on Ye Zhan and said, "Back then, I also said that as elders, we are not allowed to covet the position of Clan Leader. You knowingly broke the rules, your crime is unforgivable, you will be punished alongside Ye Rongzhong!"

Before Ye Zhan could react, another fire dragon flew out from the Refining Heaven Furnace, swallowing Ye Zhan's body and dragging him directly into the furnace.

Ye Danqiong's gaze fell once more upon the two Supreme Elders who had just appeared.

"And these two, compared to Ye Zhan, were somewhat stronger. They hastily opened their mouths and said, "Ancestor, we haven't violated any rules, we've just been in seclusion all this time, and we don't know what's happening outside."

"Don't you know" Ye Danqiong said coldly. "Ye Zhan usurped the chieftain's position, and Ye Rongzhong openly rebelled. You didn't show up. I can consider that you are following the rules I set and not interfering in the internal affairs of the clan."

But when the Lord comes, why do you always hide yourselves

"If you know nothing, what use are you"

Two elders trembled and kowtowed repeatedly: "Ancestor, forgive us, Ancestor, forgive us. We didn't deliberately avoid you, we just didn't think it through."

At this time, even Ye Chunyang mustered his courage and said, "Ancestor, please show mercy!"

For Ye Chunyang, Ye Danqiong was clearly still quite satisfied. Hearing him plead for mercy, she specially raised her head and glanced at him before saying: "It's useless to beg me!"

Ye Chunyang instantly understood and hurriedly turned his gaze to Jiang Yun, saying: "Master, my Tianxiang Clan is willing to accept your rule!"

The remaining six also chimed in unison, "Master, we are willing too!"

In fact, Ginger Cloud never intended to destroy the Heavenly Fragrance Clan from the beginning to the end.

And now Ye Danqiong has sent these two culprits, Ye Rongzhong and Ye Zhan, into the Liantian Furnace.

Although they are not dead, as the Master of the Heavenly Forging Furnace, I can feel that they are truly being burned by the flames. This will be a punishment more agonizing than death.

From now on, there are no more obstacles for you to manage the Tianxiang clan yourself.

Although he was indeed a little dissatisfied with the attitudes of the two elders, he also knew that since the Tianxiang Clan had lost two powerful cultivators at the Dao-Formation stage, its overall strength had significantly weakened.

If two more people were missing, even if the Xiang Clan surrendered that day, it wouldn't be of much use to himself. So he said to Ye Danqiong: "Senior, please spare my life!"

"Hmph!" Ye Danqiong let out a cold snort at the crowd. "If it weren't for the Lord's plea today, not to mention you lot, even the Tianxiang Clan wouldn't need to continue existing!"

"Yes yes yes!"

"Also, no matter what means you use, today's events, especially the identity of the Lord, must not be leaked to anyone. Otherwise, there will be severe consequences!"

After uttering those words, Ye Danqiong turned to Jiang Yun and said, "Master, please follow me. There are some things that I need to tell you!"

This was exactly in line with Jiang Yun's intentions. He himself had questions he wanted to ask the other party, so he nodded and looked at Lian Tianlu: "Lian Tianlu, can I put this away"

"Put that away, Master. This belongs to you."

Jiang Yun reached out and retracted the Lian Tian Furnace into his body. Only then did he follow Ye Danqiong and leave.
