Chapter 698

Blending
Translated by Kollumceti of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

The news that Lin ShaoYi came into power and became the new Qilin Lord of the Qilin Clan soon spread to Xi Jing. Almost everyone who heard the news did not believe it.

However, soon after, Lin ShaoYi announced the news that the Qilin Lord had been dead for many years and implied that Lin Ming had killed the Qilin Lord. Lin Ming became a traitor of the Qilin Clan and Lin ShaoYi even vowed to kill him for the sake of avenging the Qilin Lord.

This had shocked many people, especially the Demon Phoenix Clan and the two other clans.

The elders of the three clans more or less knew about the news that the Qilin Lord was injured and in the midst of recuperation. However, a sleeping tiger was still a tiger and many still did not dare to belittle the Qilin Lord.

Who would have thought that this man who had once killed so many in the Ancient War had died?

Yet, what shocked them most was Lin ShaoYi’s attitude. None of the three clans were fools. Although they did not fully believe the rumors about Lin ShaoYi, they still believed eighty to ninety percent of it. He definitely had to be plotting something with how he was being so high profile at present.

Besides their indomitable physique, the reason why the Qilin Clan was the head of the Four Ancient Beast Clans was also due to the Qilin Lord. He was equivalent to the symbol of the Qilin Clan and his existence put an end to many with disloyal hearts. It was reasonable to say that Lin ShaoYi should not be announcing the news of his death.

The answer to this question was soon revealed.

Lin ShaoYi exposed his own identity in a high-profile way. Within three days, everyone in the TongTian Continent knew that he was the leader of the Black Spider. This seven star Sacred Realm expert had completely shed all pretense of cordiality with the Demon Phoenix Clan and the two other clans.

He dared to do this as he had something to rely on.

Except for the few who had rebelled against him, the current Qilin Clan was now under his control. Since the Qilin Clan seldomly participated in various battles, they had not lost many members and the Clan was a powerful force for Lin ShaoYi.

As for the Black Spider, they had returned to their former glory with the TongTian Emperor’s subordinates filling in their previous vacancies. He was not worried even if the Demon Phoenix Clan, True Dragon Clan and the Black Turtle Clan joined hands to deal with him.

So far, the polarization of the situation in Xi Jing had finally become obvious, and it was accompanied by fiercer and fiercer conflicts.

While You XiaoMo was concentrating on improving his strength and refining pills for Han Gong, the Black Spider and the Demon Phoenix Clan had already fought more than a dozen times.

Ever since Lin Ming told them that Lin ShaoYi’s strength had risen again, both husband and wife had gone into secluded cultivation.

You XiaoMo was intending to prepare for his breakthrough to Grade Seven. It was rumored that Grade Seven was the most difficult threshold for mages to breakthrough. From the ancient times to the present, many Grade Six mages had been stuck at this threshold and were not able to progress. Although Grade Six was already the apex for the mages in the TongTian Continent, their only regret was not being able to reach the realm of Grade Seven.

You XiaoMo dared not take chances, so he decided to make preparations in advance.

Ling Xiao seemed to have attained a valuable insight during the last battle with You ZhenTian. The door to the private room where he had been in secluded cultivation had not once opened from when he had returned till now.
