Celestial Emperor 2
Ch. 472 - Brother Qin, is this really You?
The sight of the destruction of the Xia clan was clearly recorded in the minds of Ye Duan and the middle-aged man he was fighting against. Just a moment ago, the Xia clan was the most feared clan in the Fifth World, yet now, the clan was no different from flat land.
The middle-aged man grasping the great sword felt his heart break. He had lived in the Xia clan for hundreds of years, during which time he knew of what kind of power the Xia clan possessed. He would not have expected that one day the Xia clan would be leveled with just one strike.
When all this happened, neither Ye Duan nor the middle-aged man instantly stopped their fight. The distance between the current position of the two and the Xia clan was quite close, if they were unlucky then they would also perish under the destruction.
It was only a few seconds after the two fled, that suddenly appeared as random as invisible restraining energy. After which a red-robed young man was seen emerging from the air. Death aura instantly surged at the place.
Even though the death aura emanating from Qin Shan was so terrifying, in fact it did not affect Ye Duan at all. The aura of death as well as the extreme killing intent was only on the middle-aged man carrying the great sword.
“You're from the Xia clan? Answer honestly and I will give you a quick death.” Qin Shan said calmly, he looked at the middle-aged man in front of him sharply.
From the beginning Qin Shan did not want to let go of this one person at all. No matter if he was from the Xia clan or not, since he was already looking for trouble with his friend, then he would kill him.
“Haha. I have nothing to do with the Xia clan, I am here because I am on a mission of capture from my sect.” the middle-aged man replied nervously. As he said all that, cold sweat started pouring down his back. Somehow he felt that some kind of premonition of death was approaching him.
Since the Xia clan had already offended someone who was too powerful and terrifying, then it was useless to take refuge behind the clan. That was why the middle-aged man decided not to get involved with the Xia clan anymore.
When he heard the middle-aged man's reply, Qin Shan could only let out a short sigh. “You didn't answer honestly... Then don't blame me for acting cruel.” afterwards Qin Shan shot a red speck of fire towards the middle-aged man. The red spark immediately burned him alive.
Keep in mind, the current Qin Shan was a Venerable Immortal who had already stepped onto the path of a true Grand Dao. In addition, he also began to interact with the Dao of the Heavens who were in the Three Realm. No wonder he knew so little about the truth.
“Tidaaakk!!” as he was burned by the never-ending immortal fire, the middle-aged man cried out in pain and his voice echoed throughout the land.
Qin Shan's Dao of The Flame insight was already close to reaching the true Grand Dao, so his fire power was also definitely terrifying. Qin Shan dared to bet, even the Fire Dao belonging to the Heavenly God Waterflame would not be as strong as his. In other words, in the entire Three Realm, he was a Supreme Fire Dao Expert.
Qin Shan turned towards the direction Ye Duan was in and he said with a smile. “Ye Duan, how long have we not met? When I came back it turned out you looked older.”
“Sister Qin, is this true you?” as his movements had already become free and he was finally able to turn around, he was greatly shocked when he saw Qin Shan before him.
The memories that were almost forgotten by him suddenly instantly reappeared in Ye Duan's mind. It was a competition between the clan youths, and it was then that he met Qin Shan. Then there was also the memory of the separation of the Ling clan with Qin Shan who went to the greater world. All of that happened in an instant.
Ye Duan's eyes suddenly became shiny and he could not help his excitement, at the same time he could not help his sadness either.
“Sister Qin, forgive me for failing to protect the Ling clan! When the Ling clan was struck by disaster, I instead became a coward and went to escape. I do not deserve to be a disciple of the Ling clan.” when Ye Duan said this, he sat down on the ground and the word water began to fall.
“By the past years our Ling clan has been exterminated, all of our previous territories were seized by other clans. Almost all of the clan members had been killed back then, including the seven Elders. Currently our Ling clan only has less than twenty people.” Ye Duan said all of this in one breath. He really could not bear to say everything to Qin Shan.
Upon hearing that, Qin Shan's expression instantly turned cold. It turned out that the matter of the Ling clan was more serious than he had expected. He thought there were at least a hundred people who managed to survive the event, but it turned out that the survivors were not even twenty people. What kind of massacre had happened in the Ling clan all those years ago?
“Adik Ye, calm yourself first, then explain everything to me. No matter who is behind the extermination of the Ling clan, I will avenge it many times over.” Qin Shan said calmly. Although he looked calm, deep in his heart, he was so angry and had almost lost control.
Indeed Qin Shan did not have many friends in the Ling clan, but still the clan he belonged to. If the Ling clan was destroyed, then where else would he go home?
Ye Duan tried to calm himself while wiping the tears flowing down his cheeks. After a while, he finally spoke. “Sister Qin, we must save Sister Yue. After the Ling clan was destroyed, me and Ling Yue survived, but a few days later someone suddenly appeared before us and took Sister Yue away. In the last moments, I heard the person say, ‘Your Excellency Uncruel will definitely be happy’. If we don't save Sister Yue quickly, I'm afraid she will.” Ye Duan did not continue his sentence anymore after seeing the change in Qin Shan.
When he heard what Ye Duan said, Qin Shan was already unable to stem his anger anymore. His Immortal aura surged outwards, a gripping heaven and earth origin energy had also been shot out from his body. As if space had collapsed and time had become chaotic, an area of thousands of kilometers instantly became ashes.
