Chapter 1203: Turning Hostile
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The Hua Faction had great power.
From the second day onwards, there were already people talking about the truth on the Eagle’s Beak Mountain, about how Ling Han had obtained four drops of Thousand Source True Fluid all by himself and created history.
In truth, this was something that had been talked about long ago, but it had immediately been buried underneath the public opinion that was universally against Ling Han. However, now with the Hua Faction moving, it was like how the Gao Faction had easily presented Ling Han as an executioner who killed others to steal their treasure, having as much impact on the people as the previous rumor. The vast power of the Hua Faction was naturally not something that could be matched by any individual ent.i.ty.
Even when such young king tiers like He Tao and Shen Zhu’er spoke up, it was useless. How could they match the force that had been nurtured for tens of thousands of years by the Hua Faction and Gao Faction?
Now that the Hua Faction and Gao Faction had started their contention, it was naturally impossible that the public opinion would be so one-sided anymore. Instead, it was the clash of two voices. One was smearing Ling Han’s reputation, whereas the other was establis.h.i.+ng a positive image of Ling Han.
What the truth was was actually not important. What was important was which of these two factions was stronger.
Unexpectedly, a new faction very soon joined in.
The Hu Faction!
The founder of the Hu Faction was the ninth disciple of the Venerable Trinity. His name was Hu Xiangdi. He did not have any children, and the young master of the Hu Faction was his only disciple. Her name was Lei Linglong, an outstanding beauty.
The Hu Faction’s inclination was… to beat down on Ling Han.
Actually, by now, Ling Han’s matter was no longer important. This had become a stage for the disciples of the Venerable Trinity to show off their power. They were all fighting over the only qualification to obtain the true inheritance, and all wanted to trample over the others.
Or in other words, they were making use of this matter to kick a few people out of their way.
Ling Han was a fuse, and the joining in of the Hua Faction had announced the beginning of this battle.
Next, more disciples of the Venerable Trinity joined in. The Tie Faction, Lang Faction, Nie Faction, Jian Faction, Lu Faction. Out of the nine great disciple, eight disciples had already joined in, and now the situation just happened to be four against four.
Now, it was the only remaining Qu Faction that had yet to make their position clear.
Who would have thought that a mere Mountain River Tier disciple would actually be capable of triggering a fierce battle among the nine great disciples, and that they would display their respective abilities?
But the Hua Faction’s condition had also changed.
Previously, the condition that Ji Yunzhi had set out on behalf of the Hua Faction was being willing to spend an exorbitant amount to purchase a drop of Thousand Source True Fluid, and in exchange, they would help Ling Han dissolve the oppression from the Gao Faction. But when the Tie Faction, Nie Faction, and Lu Faction also joined into the alliance, Ji Yunzhi came to see Ling Han again.
“Apologies, to oppose the alliance of the Gao, Lang, Jiang, and Hu Factions, Young Master was forced to pull in the other three factions for help, but they could not possibly offer their aid for no reason.” Ji Yunzhi smiled apologetically. “Young Master said that we hope that Senior Brother Han could take out all four drops of Thousand Source True Fluid.”
Seeing Ling Han’s expression darken, she hurriedly continued, “Naturally, Young Master would not treat Senior Brother Han badly. We can purchase it at 1,000,000 True Origin Stones per drop!”
Are you committing burglary?
Ling Han almost laughed out loud. Previously, when he had been selling alchemical pills at the Chaotic Stars Majestic Empire, he had earned more than 2,000,000 True Origin Stones, and now, a drop of Thousand Source True Fluid could actually only sell for 1,000,000?
This was a treasure that even Heavenly Body Tiers would prize greatly!
“Your Young Master is a real joker.” Ling Han shook his head. He finally understood. What Hua Faction and Gao Faction? In truth, they were no different—it was just a dogfight. And he had actually placed his hopes on the Hua Faction. He had really been too naive.
