On the Ancient Wood Continent, their reputation was considerable, comparable to that of Shi Xiu.
The strength and potential of the Yongheng Clan were closely tied to their bloodline.
The contemporary ruler had awakened the pinnacle bloodline of the Yongheng Clan, ascending from an Emperor to a Universe Master of the Five Tribulation realm. Later, he consolidated his power once again and entered the realm of Six Tribulation.
He was just slightly weaker than that ancestor.
Jian Wushuang learned about the uniqueness of the Yongheng Clan from various sources.
Since the founding of the Yongheng Clan by that ancestor, numerous masters of the Six Tribulation realms had been born, but there was only one Seven Tribulation realm, that ancestor alone.
If it were an ordinary family or force, it would be considered normal.
However, despite the numerous masters of the Six Tribulation realms born from the Yongheng Clan, there had yet to be a second master of the Seven Tribulation realms.
“It seems that the shortcomings of the Yongheng Clan are related to that ancestor!” Jian Wushuang speculated inwardly.
If that ancestor of the Yongheng Clan were a powerhouse of the Eighth Tribulation realm, there would likely be many masters of the Seven Tribulation Realms among the descendants.
If they were to reach the Nine Tribulation realm!
Jian Wushuang dared not believe it.
The Yongheng Clan was indeed very special and powerful.
He admired that ancestor of the Yongheng Clan even more.
Unfortunately, after becoming a Scattered Tribulation cultivator, that ancestor could not advance his own strength, and the descendants could not break through the barrier either.
What’s the point of this!
While he admired, he couldn’t understand why that ancestor cared so much about the descendants.
If he were to sever the connection of the Yongheng Clan’s bloodline, that ancestor would probably not stop at the Half-Step Eighth Tribulation realm.
No!
Perhaps without the bloodline eruptions of those descendants, that ancestor might not have achieved the Half-Step Eighth Tribulation Realm.
Jian Wushuang seemed to understand a bit.
It was complementary after all, not as he had imagined.
This time coming to the Yongheng Kingdom, Jian Wushuang wasn’t really here for the Yongheng Clan, so he didn’t dwell on it much.
The families to which Sang Biao and Nikun belonged were subsidiary forces of the Yongheng Clan, with no real power of their own.
In the Yongheng Kingdom, the Yongheng Clan was supreme.
While there were no Universe Masters in the Seventh Tribulation realm, there were plenty in the Six Tribulation. Almost every era saw Universe Masters in the Six Tribulation realm presiding over the Yongheng Clan.
Their heritage was profound, so within the Yongheng Kingdom, there was simply no force capable of rivaling the Yongheng Clan.
Most of the seven-star sects had already declined, relying solely on a Universe Master in the Five Tribulation realm, unable to sustain themselves.
Within the Yongheng Kingdom, they had no say whatsoever.
Hence, many geniuses from subsidiary forces would enter the royalty established by the Yongheng Clan.
Practicing alongside geniuses of the Yongheng Clan, one’s status was determined solely by strength, completely fair, regardless of background.
This aspect was quite commendable.
In ordinary kingdoms, royal families would undoubtedly be superior.
Just like in the Yue Kingdom, Wu Li had always complained, perhaps also related to the system of the Yongheng Kingdom.
“Not good!” Sang Biao sat up straight inside the warship, his face darkening.
When Jian Wushuang heard this, he thought the other party had discovered him, preparing to act at any moment.
“What’s wrong?” Nikun also stood up, seeing Sang Biao’s unusual behavior and understanding the seriousness of the situation, he hurriedly asked, his divine power erupting simultaneously.
With a grim expression, Sang Biao said resentfully, “We’ve wanted men now! The people from the Ancient Wood Sect put a bounty on us. They’ve already arrived in the capital. Just now, people from our family sent me a message, telling us to flee to the Outer Domain!”
“Wanted? How is that possible? It seems like the two of us haven’t offended the Ancient Wood Sect!”
Nikun was startled. He thought carefully but couldn’t figure out why they were wanted by the Ancient Wood Sect.
It seemed that both the clan and the Yongheng Clan were abandoning them.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t be allowed to just run away like this.
For ordinary matters, the Yongheng Clan would intervene to help them settle it.
After all, they were their own people. If they were captured by the Ancient Wood Sect, how could they continue mingling in the future!
The Yongheng Kingdom was also one of the top three super forces. For trivial matters, the Ancient Wood Sect wouldn’t dare to offend the Yongheng Kingdom for these two Emperors.
This time, they must have done something unforgivable.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t be allowed to run away directly to the Outer Domain.
This was obviously to distance themselves from them!
“It must be the Empress of the Yue Kingdom!” Nikun quickly figured it out, then continued, “She is really ruthless. Not wanting to offend the Yongheng Kingdom, she turned around and sold us to the Ancient Wood Sect!”
Sang Biao nodded. They both understood that they used the special power of Death.
That was absolutely forbidden.
Using treasures tainted with the power of Death would be fine, but they both used the power of Death themselves.
And they were only Emperors, they must have felt there were people behind them.
That’s why they came to investigate.
After the Yongheng Clan knew the reason, they gave up on them.
Jian Wushuang also understood.
There was some regret in his heart.
If these two really ran away to the Outer Domain, he would have to give up tracking them and prepare to take action directly.
But he wasn’t in a hurry now.
As they say, those directly involved are often confused while bystanders see clearly.
These two were at death’s door and hadn’t yet seen the situation clearly.
Since the matter was so big, the Yongheng Clan might silence them to distance themselves.
Letting them run to the Outer Domain was just a diversion.
After they arrived in the Outer Domain, they would be silenced directly, which was the real deal.
As a result, it was likely that the Yongheng Clan had some kind of connection with Emperor Babidi.
Unknowingly, Jian Wushuang found himself embroiled in another game.
For now, he remained a spectator, observing how he would make his move.
“Hmm?” Jian Wushuang’s telepathic range was extensive, always on guard, and it seemed his suspicions were correct.
Sure enough, a powerful expert at the Three Tribulation realm was rushing towards them, seemingly intent on silencing them.
Cloaked in a black robe, completely concealed, the aura around him hinted at the concealment of some precious treasure.
Meanwhile, the two inside the warship were still foolishly debating.
Should they flee directly, or go to seek refuge with Lord Babidi?
Jian Wushuang, on the other hand, pondered internally, strategizing his next move.
Once involved, it would become a three-way power struggle.
He swore to annihilate the Death power of the Ancient Wood Sect!
To uncover the Yongheng Clan’s concealment of the Death power!
Lastly, there was Lord Babidi, who could manipulate the Death power!
The first two were in the open, while the latter lurked in the shadows.
If Jian Wushuang intervened, he would be in both light and shadow.
The choice rested upon him.
Once that black-robed expert arrived, those two were doomed.
By then, everything would be settled, and Jian Wushuang would lose all information about Lord Babidi.
He could only dissipate his clone and sneakily return to the Yue Kingdom.
If he intervened to save these two, then devised a plan to have them lead him to Lord Babidi while leaving some clues to attract members of the Ancient Wood Sect.
Using their strength against them.
Perhaps this way would be more perfect.
“Battle!” Jian Wushuang’s eyes glinted with determination.
He was eager to see who this Lord Babidi truly was and whether he had any connection to Mie Sheng.
Relying on his clone on the warship, he directly descended onto the land.
