Chapter 1461 - 1460: The Whereabouts of the Human Emperor’s Descendants

Chapter 1461: Chapter 1460: The Whereabouts of the Human Emperor’s Descendants

"The Xia Family turned into the Wugong family, who would have thought that my descendants would fall to the point of changing their surname."

It seemed that listening to the conversation between Ling Chen and Beichuan Ye, a Human Emperor’s sigh also echoed in Ling Chen’s mind.

During his time, the Human Emperor wielded great power across the land, and all directions bowed down. All the strong in the world were in awe of him, yet he didn’t expect his descendants to leave the Nine Provinces and be in such a poor state in Yingzhou.

Fortunately, his lineage hasn’t been cut off, the family line is indeed preserved, which is a great blessing amidst the misfortune.

"By the way, Brother Ling, I forgot to ask, what are you looking for the Xia Family for?"

At this moment, Beichuan Ye looked at Ling Chen and couldn’t help but ask.

"The Xia Family has some connections with my Sect, so I was ordered by my master to seek out this family and provide some assistance if necessary," Ling Chen said.

"I see."

Beichuan Ye nodded and then pondered, "The current situation of the Wugong family is indeed not very good."

"Why?"

Ling Chen’s eyes slightly narrowed.

"The San Chuan Island where the Wugong family resides was originally a little-known small island. The Wugong family migrated there without any problem, but just three months ago, the Wugong family discovered a rich Gilded Iron Mine on this island."

Beichuan Ye’s eyes flashed with a gleam as he continued, "Gilded Iron Mine is a high-grade material for forging Holy Grade Weapons and Equipment. If the production is large enough, it can produce Holy Grade Weapons and Equipment in bulk. Coincidentally, the Gilded Iron Mine on San Chuan Island belongs to a rare large vein."

"The Wugong family initially wanted to keep the Gilded Iron Mine a secret, but as the saying goes, there’s no wall in the world that doesn’t leak. This matter was soon discovered by the two major first-class families near San Chuan Island, the Fengmo Clan and the Shangquan family."

"Such a precious mine, the two families were naturally very jealous and made every effort to seize the control of this vein from the Wugong family. The Wugong family showed real backbone, hard-headed as they are, they resolutely refused to relinquish the Gilded vein despite being pressed by the two families."

Beichuan Ye shook his head, "Under the sanctions of the two families, the situation of the Wugong family has become extremely perilous. I estimate that even if they are now willing to give up the vein, the two families would not let it go easily."

The Fengmo and Shangquan families are both top-notch families in Yingzhou; compared to these two families, what is the Wugong family? The actions of the latter have obviously angered these two families and may likely invite annihilation.

"Ling Chen!"

It seemed that he also heard what Beichuan Ye said, and the voice of the Human Emperor echoed in Ling Chen’s mind, with a tinge of urgency.

Ling Chen had never heard the Human Emperor so anxious. It seems that when it comes to his own descendants’ Bloodline, he is very concerned.

"Master, rest assured, I will do my utmost to protect this Wugong family."

Ling Chen gave the Human Emperor reassurance, and since he had been helped by the Human Emperor so many times, this time, no matter what, he must help to protect the Human Emperor’s Bloodline!

"The Wugong family is now being targeted by these two families, so it’s likely hard for them to escape disaster. Ling Chen, you must be cautious..."

Beichuan Ye seemed to have seen through Ling Chen’s thoughts and couldn’t help but remind Ling Chen that the current situation of the Wugong family has reached a point where they are almost certain to be destroyed. The Fengmo Clan and the Shangquan family are each no weaker than the Bei Chuan Family. Ling Chen wanting to protect the Wugong family from these two families is extremely challenging and may even implicate himself.

"Brother Beichuan, I am already very grateful that you helped me gather information. I will definitely repay this favor!"

Ling Chen solemnly cupped his hands towards Beichuan Ye, then looked at Hong Ye beside him, and immediately moved and darted towards outside the courtyard!

"Young master Beichuan, farewell."

Hong Ye also cupped her hands towards Beichuan Ye, then moved to follow Ling Chen.

"These two, they are really in a hurry."

Beichuan Ye sighed and shook his head, feeling somewhat worried for Ling Chen. After all, the opponents are the two top-notch families, Fengmo and Shangquan, and Ling Chen already has enmity with the Fengmo Clan. Going there is bound to be extremely dangerous.

These sorts of predicaments aren’t something that can be resolved with a few words.

Especially now that Ling Chen has received the Cloud Monarch’s legacy, his identity is inherently sensitive, and there are many forces with ideas about him. If there is an opportunity to plot against Ling Chen, other forces will not let it slip by either.

To put oneself in such a dangerous situation for a second-tier family, is it really worth it?

Beichuan Ye shook his head again. He could only do so much. Whatever happens to Ling Chen next, he was powerless to help.

...

In the southwest corner of the Yingzhou Continent, there lies a crescent-shaped small island, with three rivers running through the entire island, this is San Chuan Island.

San Chuan Island was originally a desolate and little-known island, but it has become a place filled with the smoke of conflict due to the Gilded Iron Mine matter over this period.

At the center of San Chuan Island, within a basin surrounded by mountains, stood buildings of varying heights. Excluding the desolate scene, it was actually quite a nice place.

This is where the Wugong family is located.

Although the Wugong family is considered a second-tier family, it is after all the Dominator of San Chuan Island. Once upon a time, the Wugong family was quite popular, but now it has become very desolate.

There are few people among the buildings, and everyone looks listless, devoid of energy.

In front of the large gate of the Wugong family, two rows of guards stood at the entrance. From inside the gate, silhouettes of young figures continuously came out, and behind them was an elder sending this group of young people away.

The leader among the group of young people was a blue-dressed young woman with delicate features and a touch of heroism between her brows. After stepping out of the gate, she looked back at the elder with an unwilling face and pleaded, "Third Elder! We don’t want to leave the family. This is the place where we were born and raised. Even if we die, I, Wugong Qian Dai, want to die here."

"That’s right, we vow to live and die with the family!"

"We are not afraid of death, what else do we fear? If it comes to it, we’ll fight the Fengmo Clan and the Shangquan family to the death!"

The young people of the Wugong family, driven by Wugong Shou He, were all emotionally stirred up, like having been injected with excitement, and refused to leave.

"Sigh, I don’t want to send you off either, but the situation is urgent. You are the essence of the family. If the family truly encounters disaster, the responsibility of revitalizing the family will fall onto your shoulders in the future. You must not act impulsively."

The third elder of the Wugong family shook his head and sighed heavily. Even he did not expect the Wugong family to reach such a desperate situation, just one step from annihilation. Now the Fengmo Clan and the Shangquan family do not intend to let them survive. Thinking of the former glory of the Wugong family, the ancestral glory, fills him with anger and shame.
