Chapter 1657: A Safe Return (1/2)

Jiang Chen reuest, he was in no place to interfere without his host’s say so Unlike in the hu to boast about in the Ten Divine Nations He wasn’t that e cultivators here

It was better to lay low for the ti There was no need for him to become involved in the conflict between House Yan and other factions And, it was also apparent that Yan Qingsang was much more furious than he was

Without Elder He and Elder Quan’s orders however, a fu could only res worse by leaving the boat

Outside, Elder He conversed patiently with the h deference to the sect The shocking news that’d been freshly delivered had shaken the two elders, pulling the rug out from beneath them

“We’re in Eternal Divine Nation territory, ht Sect’s forbidden ground No authority will consider the sect justified in stopping our airboat Aren’t you worried about punishment froht Sect is entitled to intercept any airboats passing through our territory” The hter “If you’re smart, you’ll do as I say Othere’ll keep you as our indefinite guests You will only leave e allow you to”

But there was a limit to Elder He’s patience House Yan was a first tier faction after all This man had just crossed a line with his insolence

“Since when has the Starlight Sect becoaze on theto openly bully House Yan?”

“So what if I a to do about it? If you want to pass through, leave all of your ancient jade and the Blues you go, hahaha!”

Within the airboat, Huang’er had had enough

“Stay here,” she said to Ling Bi’er “I’ll go deal with the’er stood up, the other youths in House Yan followed They had run out of their patience as well Yan Qingsang and Jiang Chen exchanged a look before following the young geniuses

Elder He was upset when he saw the the boat, but he didn’t repri? Get back inside”

Huang’er ignored Elder He and looked at the ht Sect, Eternal Divine Nation follows its own set of rules House Yan has no qualhted if you think you can bully us as you hile we’re temporarily down on our luck

“If you force us to stay, we’ll defend ourselves to the death The royal family will absolutely find you to be at fault You know better than anyone what the Eternal Sacred Land hates the e of us, but will you be able to exter?”

She presented her argu to maintain peace like Elder He had Her clear explanation of the factors at play here illustrated plainly that she didn’t believe that these people would do anything to House Yan They wereup their valuables

If House Yan surrendered, the sect would’ve gained what they wanted and would be able to spread the news to defa to do wasn’t to compromise, but to show House Yan’s resolution to resist even unto the brink of death After all, the Starlight Sect wouldn't dare go on a killing spree in broad daylight and kill every one of theh, and the Eternal Sacred Land would never allow theue, chit Are you the fa of House Yan?” A lecherous save her a onceover

She narrowed her eyes, her expression calirl Didn’t House Yan trade you away a long tio? What do you care about thehuang You esture

His cohter They obviously had no respect for House Yan

Huang’er nodded and turned to the two elders “Stop wasting our time on them, elders Get back in the airboat and depart Let’s see if they truly are bold enough to break the rules in Eternal Divine Nation territory!”

She walked back inside the airboat without sparing the lance

The two elders shared a look and nodded There was no better way to address this issue It was pointless to continue arguing with the sect These men would never listen to reason They were unlikely to attack once the airboat launched

If they did, that would ht, which would alert the sacred land

Once that poare of the conflict, House Yan would receive justice despite its declining influence After all, the rules were the rules

The Starlight Sect wasn’t above the rules, and the Eternal Sacred Land had no reason to tolerate their crimes

All members of House Yan returned to the airboat

“Launch and set sail!” ordered Elder He

The boat launched slowly The ed uncertain looks They hadn’t expected House Yan to show such backbone

The two elders had been wavering, but Yan Qinghuang had been able to turn the situation around with only a few choice words

In truth, the sect wasn’t daring enough to escalate the conflict It would be easy enough to attack the airboat, and they were ninety percent sure they would be able to keep the passengers here But if House Yan fought back with no regard for their lives and ended up with casualties, Starlight Sect wouldn’t be able to hear the end of things

It wouldn’t be a s factions, no one would be able to cover the incident up
