Chapter 1417 - The Fight over the Seats (2/2)

However, the Qing lineage was no longer the same. Although they had done their best, they were unable to contend with the Xuan lineage and the Mo lineage.

Mu Chen nodded, then suddenly said, ”I can help you secure your seats.”

When Qing Xuan heard this, she was shocked. She looked at Mu Chen in amazement and asked, ”Do you have a solution?”

Mu Chen said, ”I have my own way. If you trust me, leave it to me.”

When Qing Xuan heard his reply, she hesitated for a while before gritting her teeth and saying, ”Okay.”

Since they were in such a desperate situation, she figured that there was no harm in giving it a try. After all, Mu Chen had stepped into the Heavenly Sovereign level at such a young age, so he must be extraordinary. He might truly be capable of helping them!

Mu Chen nodded as she said calmly, ”Since I will be helping you, you have to help me as well.”

”How so?” she asked curiously.

As Mu Chen clenched his fist, several scripts appeared in his palm. He then flicked the tip of his finger, while Blood Essence flew out and landed on the scripts. This motion seemed to have formed runes on the script that were written with blood.

He then passed the scripts to Qing Xuan and said, ”Since you are an elder of the Budur Ancient Clan, you should know where the central of the Fortify Clan Grand Array is located. You have to hide these scripts there before the Contest of the Lineages commences.”

Qing Xuan turned pale when she heard what Mu Chen had said. The Fortify Clan Grand Array was an array that protected the Budur Territory. This was a serious matter, and she dared not mess around with it.

”I am here to save my mother, and I have no intention of becoming an enemy of the Budur Ancient Clan. You can rest assured that I will not do anything to harm the clan. I just need to have some bargaining power, as the Budur Ancient Clan is too powerful,” Mu Chen explained his intentions when he saw Qing Xuan's doubtful expression.

He then added, ”Even if you do not trust me, you should trust my mother. She would not allow me to destroy the Budur Ancient Clan.”

When Qing Xuan heard this, she instantly became more relaxed. She might not know Mu Chen, but she knew her sister well.

Although her sister was angry with the Budur Ancient Clan for imprisoning her, she would not hold it against them. After all, this was the place where she grew up and all of her relatives were here. Moreover, Mu Chen should be aware that, although the Fortify Clan Grand Array was important, he would not be able to overthrow the Budur Ancient Clan simply by doing something to the array.

”All right. I will do it.” After Qing Xuan had made up her mind, she nodded and carefully took over the scripts that were stained with Mu Chen's Blood Essence.

Mu Chen heaved a sigh of relief. This step was extremely important to him.

Although he had the help of the Endless Fire Territory and the Martial Border, if those people from the Budur Ancient Clan became unreasonable and came down hard on him, he might have a problem dealing with them. Moreover, there were Divine Heavenly Sovereigns in the Budur Ancient Clan, so he had to be prepared.

”Thank you, Elder Qing Xuan,” he said.

When Qing Xuan saw Mu Chen smiling politely at her, she sighed within her heart. Mu Chen should have addressed her as aunt, but apparently, he still bore grudges against them. She felt so distant from him.

However, when she thought about how Mu Chen had been separated from his mother since he could remember things and had to survive on his own and cultivate all by himself until this moment, she felt that it was understandable for him to behave in this manner. He must have suffered a lot and gone through many difficult tribulations.

She only hoped that Mu Chen would be able to save his mother. After this was done, their relationship could then hopefully improve.

Since they had come to an agreement, Qing Xuan did not stay any longer. She bid Mu Chen farewell and left.

When Mu Chen saw that Qing Xuan had left, he let out a long breath. With Qing Xuan to help him, it had indeed saved him a lot of trouble.

Since everything was now in place, he just had to wait for the day of the Contest of the Lineages to arrive. Mu Chen placed his hands behind his back and looked up at the sky. His dark eyes looked profound.

”Budur Ancient Clan, this time around, let us fight it out…” he murmured. Mu Chen had waited so many years for this day to come.
