Chapter 165 Mighty Allies Of Zhan Clan
'What Should I do? Should I attack or not?', Zhan Chen felt unsure for a moment after seeing the Huo clan experts who had gathered their entire strength in a single location.
He was keeping an eye on the Huo clan experts while hiding himself in a nearby location. But suddenly his expression changed and he vanished from his location.
The sixth stage expert of Huo clan sensed something and looked towards the distance sky.
"Fellow daoists, why don't you show yourselves?", the sixth stage expert of Huo clan cupped his hand towards the distant location.
"Tsk! Tsk! Huo clan is getting mightier everyday. It has been few days and another tribulation stage cultivator popped up", a sarcastic voice came out from thin air.
The faces of Huo clan experts were grim but they couldn't do anything against mighty sixth stage experts.
"Young master Bai, please escape after I make an opening. These sixth stage cultivators do not seem to have good opinion towards our Huo family", the sixth stage expert of Huo clan spoke to Huo Baixing with his soul consciousness.
"Well, there is no point in concealing ourselves any longer", the earlier voice sounded out again. But this time, it seemed like he was talking to someone else other than Huo clan warriors.
"There is no point indeed", his companion replied and two masked cultivators became visible in the sky above the Huo clan warriors.
"Who are you two? I have never seen you before", the sixth stage experts of Huo clan spoke as he looked towards the uninvited sixth stage experts.
"You don't have to know", one of the sixth stage cultivator who was floating in the air replied and pressed his hand towards the ground.
A huge palm print materialized out of thin air and it directly came crashing on Huo clan cultivators.
--------------
"What a fool", Zhan Chen murmured to himself after seeing the battle between two sixth stage experts. If the Huo clan cultivator was smart, he would have dispersed other cultivators of his clan towards different directions but now it was too late.
The two masked cultivators took action swiftly and started to take out the Huo clan cultivators one by one.
Infront of the might of sixth stages experts, the other Huo clan experts beside their sixth stage experts were sitting ducks. After fourth stage, difference between realms were heaven and earth. A fifth stage expert could easily overwhelm a peak fourth stage expert and as for the sixths stage experts they were beyond the leagues of fourth stage and fifth stage cultivators.
It took only took some moments for the masked sixth stage experts to take down the Huo clan experts. Huo Baixing could only watch helplessly as all of his clan mates got butchered infront of his eyes.
"What do you want?", Huo Baixing could only ask some words before he got knocked out by the sixth stage masked expert.
After taking down everyone, it was the turnof Huo clan sixth stage expert. He tried to fight back fiercely but his attempt was futile infront of the pincer attacks of the two sixth stage experts.
"What a waste! I could have easily gained a Tribulation realm slave", Zhan Chen thought to himself. Despite his disappointment what he wanted to know the most was the intention of these two sixth stage cultivators.
But to his surprise, the sixth stage cultivators started to talk about him as soon as they took down the Huo clan cultivators. Zhan Chen perked up his ears as he listened to the conversation of the two masked cultivators.
"Where is that brat of Zhan clan. We have checked everywhere but couldn't find him anywhere in this place", one of the masked cultivator commented.
"Doesn't matter. We just need to keep watch on Shen clan cultivators and he will turn up there", the other masked cultivator replied.
"Willy foxes", Zhan Chen cursed after hearing the planning of both of the cultivators.
"Brother Zhuan, tell me one thing. Does we really need to go to such length for protecting one kid?", the cultivation who was questioning earlier asked.
His companion furrowed his brows after hearing the words of his fellow cultivator. "Brother Yun. Don't take it lightly. If you fail in the task, then even with your main branch identity, you can't escape the punishment of the clan", he replied to his fellow cultivator.
"Wei Zhuan, you are joking. We are tribulation realm cultivators of Lu clan. Who can punish us in the clan even if we do any mistake?", the cultivator named Yun looked towards his companion.
"Don't forget that we still have our supreme elders. The emperors!", Wei Zhuan replied.
After their brief conversation, they left with Huo Baixing but Zhan Chen learned many more things form their conversation. According to their conversation, they are from Lu clan which may be the same Lu clan of central land.
As for their intention, they seemed like protecting him but Zhan Chen was not sure about details.
Zhan Chen recalled the words of his ancestor when he was bidding him farewell. The ancestor of Zhan clan seemed to remind him that Zhan clan still had many enemies as well as friends.
'Well, there is no point in overthinking. Looks like I have to meet these two from Lu clan. As for their intention, I will learn it after meeting both of them', Zhan Chen thought to himself.
He used Wind chasing steps and vanished from his place. After sometime, he emerged near the palce of Shen clan cultivators.
"That brat is back", Lu Yun commented.
"He is looking at us!", Wei Zhuan spoke with a surprised look on his voice. Lu Yun looked towards the ground and found Zhan Chen looking towards both of them with a calm look on his face. As for the Shen clan cultivators, they still had yet to locate Zhan Chen's presence.
"Greetings seniors", Zhan Chen bowed his head slightly towards the two Lu clan cultivators.
"What a strange brat!", Lu Yun commented as he followed behind Wei Zhuan and descended on the ground near Zhan Chen.
"How did you find us?", Wei Zhuan asked.
"Seniors are just sightseeing in the sky. So, I thought it would be best if I can ask for some pointers from the esteemed seniors", Zhan Chen replied eloquently.
Wei Zhuan felt speechless after hearing the nonsense from Zhan Chen. Lu Yun also threw a strange gaze towards Zhan Chen as if he was seeing a rare specimen.
"It is a miracle that Zhan clan had such a character like you", Wei Zhuan shook his head. After that he introduced themselves to Zhan Chen.
"Who else is Zhan clan's ally?", Zhan Chen asked Wei Zhuan.
"Don't you heard anything from your ancestor?", Wei Zhuan asked Zhan Chen in a confused tone in his voice.
Zhan Chen shook his head as his ancestor, Zhan Lin had didn't mention any specific name to him. His only advice was to be careful.
From Wei Zhuan, Zhan Chen learned that Huang clan beside Lu clan was an ally of their Zhan clan. As for their current attitude towards Zhan clan, it was yet to be found out.
"What about other three clans? Are they allies or enemies?", Zhan Chen looked towards Wei Zhuan and Lu Yun.
"You are merely an eighteen year old brat. Why are you asking so much questions for?", Lu Yun interjected in between the conversation of Zhan Chen and Wei Zhuan.
"You are proud because you manage to reach Heavenly tribulation realm before crossing the threshold of hundred years, right?", Zhan Chen looked towards Lu Yun with a smile.
"How do you find out?", Lu Yun blurted out as he looked towards Zhan Chen with a startled look on his face.
"How do I find out is not important. What is important is that you are not able to advance a single stage since last ten years. Am I right?", Zhan Chen asked Lu Yun.
The look on Lu Yun's face changed as he looked towards Zhan Chen as if was seeing a monster. Wei Zhuan also felt surprise as what Zhan Chen was speaking was hundred percent truth.
"Now, can you tell me the name of our enemies?", Zhan Chen looked towards Wei Zhuan while ignoring Lu Yun. This time Lu Yun didn't disturb as he became completely silent.
"So, Shen clan is not an enemy. It is a relief then", Zhan Chen murmured after hearing the explanation of Wei Zhuan about their enemies.
"They are not enemies but they will be if the situation in the Shen clan go on like this", Wei Zhuan spoke.
"Tell me about it", Zhan Chen looked towards Wei Zhuan.
