Combat Emperor: Zhang Yu's Journey
Chapters... 169: Intruder
Day by day passed. The moon and even the year slowly changed. But until now someone who is expected to return does not show signs of return.
In the secret room, right in front of the door to the ancestral altar, two women were standing there with agitated faces.
"Auntie, it's been two years that Zhang Yu hasn't returned. Is she all right in there?" asked Xuan Yin.
However, the answer to this question was too difficult for Xiao Mei to answer. Of course as Xiao Mei's mother wished Zhang Yu well. Although not infrequently he worries every time he thinks about the difficulties he might experience.
"He'll be fine. You have to trust him."
Xiao Mei and Xuan Yin compactly turned around hearing this voice.
"Dad!"
"Patriarch Sepuh!"
Xiao Nie smiled. Then he said, "Zhang Yu can survive until this time must have gotten something. Don't you know for yourself that everyone who enters the ancestral altar will return safely? He is now fighting for the ancestral inheritance, so we should pray that Zhang Yu succeeds in doing so."
Xiao Mei and Xuan Yin nodded. Right at that moment the Third Elder descended from the upper floors coming at them.
"Patriarch! Patriarch!" yells.
The arrival that was quite horrendous certainly made Xiao Nie, Xiao Mei and Xuan Yin link both eyebrows in surprise.
"What's wrong?" ask Xiao Nie.
For a moment Xiao Zhiqian took a breath to calm down. "Patriarch Sepuh, the protector at the north gate was destroyed."
The look on Xiao Nie's face changed hearing this. But he still tried to calm down. "Is this a spiritual animal?" tanyakanya.
"We were hoping so, but seeing the fluctuations in the observation room seemed to be someone's doing."
Ciao Nie who was trying to be calm could no longer hide his shock.
Somebody? That meant that there were strong people infiltrating the territory of the Xiao Clan without permission. Although it was uncertain of its strength, it should have been at the demi-god level.
"Third elder, have you told this matter to the other elders?" ask Xiao Nie.
"The Patriarch Sepuh. But I can't find the Patriarch's whereabouts."
"One more Third Elder, don't forget to point children and women to the emergency shelter."
"Good Patriarch Sepuh."
Xiao Zhiqian quickly went to fulfill the order. Xiao Nie also prepared, but did not forget to also tell Xiao Mei and Xuan Yin.
"You should also go to an emergency shelter. Use the underground passageway in the main room to get there faster."
Xiao Mei and Xuan Yin seemed like they wanted to say something, but Xiao Nie had already darted away leaving them.
"Auntie, do you know the enemy that attacked this time? How strong are they?" asked Xuan Yin. He wanted to decide whether to go to the emergency shelter or stay waiting in this room.
However Xiao Mei was unable to confirm it.
"The enemies of the Xiao Clan are not only from the Yang empire. But many from the Long Empire. This time the incoming enemy could destroy the extremely powerful northern gate protector. At least among them there were those at the half-eternal level. We have to go to an emergency shelter in anticipation of something untoward."
"What about Zhang Yu?" xuan Yin asked uneasily.
"He'll be fine. As long as there is no one at the immortal level, this door will not be destroyed."
They also went to the emergency shelter by following Xiao Nie's instructions about the underground passageway.
Meanwhile at the north gate, five people dressed in black were gathering strength after destroying the protector. Gradually they rose from a cross-legged position then stepped through the territorial gate of the Xiao Clan.
"Elder, we have to split up to find the woman who owns the moon goddess' body" one of them said.
The old man wearing gloves momentarily remained silent, then nodded his head in agreement. "I'm sure now the people of the Xiao Clan are on standby. You must be vigilant because there is one person who is already at the half-eternal level."
The four younger men looked at each other with disdainful smiles. "We know. Only one person to look out for. For others it is not a worthy opponent for us."
Quickly the four of them went to four different points. After only smiling as he himself was there, the old man raised his face straight and glanced at a tree that was beside his right.
"You're doing it too far. Aren't you gonna regret it?"
There was a shadow behind the tree. But he did not answer and just left.
