Chapter 344 - Resolute (1/2)

Editor: Elitecoder

After Zhuo Fan’s analysis, the Luo clan now understood what to do next. Luo Yunhai was feeling hurt, but the light in his eyes grew stauncher.

At dawn break, people left Dragon Cloud City.

The Esoteric Debate this time was particularly cruel and devastating, but no one expected for a clan to rise after a thousand years and kill its way to the same footing as the seven houses.

Luo clan’s legend spread like wildfire throughout the Tianyu Empire.

Luo clan and its allies said their goodbyes at the gates, then went home. Luo clan was getting ready for its big reveal into the limelight, to fight on equal footing with the true powers.

Their allies had already invited their Venerables to fight alongside the Luo clan. Now that they were in the same boat, they had one course of action. Because when the Luo clan fell, Regent Estate would turn to them.

They were backed into a corner.

Why else would they accept following this madman after finding out that Zhuo Fan had just become the imperial family’s enemy number one? Now they will go along for the ride called Zhuo Fan. They will thrive and fall together. Neither one could abandon the other.

Dugu Zhantian patted Luo Yunhai’s shoulder with a hard face, “Yunhai, won’t you join your godfather in battle instead? “

“Godfather, you still have the other four to help you, but I am the Luo clan’s only heir. I can only go with my clan. Please forgive me godfather.” Luo Yunhai nodded.

Dugu Zhantian sighed, “Alright, Yunhai, you’ve grown and are responsible now. A true soldier from my army…”

“Godfather…” Luo Yunhai interrupted, “Thank you for your guidance these past five years. If the day ever comes when we cross swords, I ask that godfather shows no mercy, as neither shall I…”

The Four Tigers of Tianyu jerked. Why was their younger brother being so heartless?

But Dugu Zhantian’s eyes shrank and he sighed,”It seems you already know the situation. That brat must’ve told you. But he is he and you are you. As long as the Luo clan has him…”

“Godfather, without him there wouldn’t be a Luo clan, nor the relation we have today. You have taught me loyalty so how could I betray him? Moreover, he is the pillar of the Luo clan. A man does not clip his own wings so how can I, a warrior, make the folly of cutting off my arms?”

Dugu Zhantian nodded and laughed, “You are indeed my godson, both righteous and loyal. It will be my pride and joy to meet you on the field.”

Dugu Zhantian smiled and turned, “Yunhai, we may be on opposite sides, but our bond will never change.”

“Take care… godfather.”

Luo Yunhai watched the imposing back and banged his head on the pavement three times.

As for the four tigers, they were totally lost. [What is going on? Why are they suddenly saying goodbyes?]

Not far, Chu Qingcheng had Luo Yunchang called to the side, “Young miss Luo, Zhuo Fan will be in your care.”

“That has never changed. What, should he be in your care?” Luo Yunchang pouted, showing her hostility.

She had no clue what Chu Qingcheng did to get him out of his shell but was still grateful. That didn’t mean she was about to step back from fighting over her man.

Chu Qingcheng smiled, “I mean that you should take great care of his heart. Help him understand this world. He isn’t alone.”

Chu Qingcheng then pushed a flickering ring into her hand and left.

Luo Yunchang was shocked. It was a Thunder Ring like Zhuo Fan was wearing. [How did she get it?]

Zhuo Fan only made three, with two given to Xue Ningxiang and Xie Tianyang. [Does that mean there was a fourth? And given to Chu Qingcheng?]

[Why didn’t I get one?]

Luo Yunchang was annoyed as she ran to Zhuo Fan. She showed the Thunder Ring and snapped, “Zhuo Fan, what’s the meaning of this? Are you giving everyone gifts now? What about me?”

“Where did you get this ring?” Zhuo Fan squinted in a cold tone.

Luo Yunchang let out a shrill cry from fright. Then she lowered her head and mumbled, “Edifice Lord Chu just gave it to me. Saying I need to look after you…”

“Throw it away!”

Zhuo Fan cut her off, “Ning’er and Xie Tianyang have broken ties with me. I don’t need these baubles anymore. “

Zhuo Fan set out with the rest of the Luo clan. Captain Pang rushed to Luo Yunchang as her guard.
