While the elders were astonished by Du Lian's attitude of not being afraid of the elders and her superiors. Some of them were even angry and wanted to attack Du Lian if only the 8 supreme elders did not forbid them from doing anything big.
“True elder Du Lian said, we can't do anything to call the ancestor back any sooner! But I am sure the ancestors have gotten a bad feeling about Spring House because it is the longest relationship with this house”
A supreme elder who also knew about Du Lian's position towards the adoptive ancestor cleared Du Lian's name of the suspicion and anger of many elders there.
“But we can't wait any longer! The defensive formation would only last up to five hours if it was continuously attacked by Earth cultivators. After that we have to put in a lot of resources to keep activating it” one of the highest elders denied.
“Then we have to how? I'm sure the outsider behind all this is 8 big houses!”
One of the elders then suggested that they contact Kim House. Because the elder was also one of the people close to Kim House, moreover, some elders also had a marriage relationship with him.
“Although we have many marriage relationships with Kim House, none of them now give us information or come and show their faces. This alone has proven that Kim House does not want to help us”
“It's possible that Kim House didn't help us because he was suppressed by the other two houses! Who is not familiar with the Flame and Water House! Both were the two houses of the strongest ruler. Kim House must have been suppressed by both of them” said the elder again. He did not want his son-in-law who is now in the Kim House to be considered a traitor by many people here.
As they were busy arguing, a huge rumble sounded from outside the Spring House territory. Suddenly they all came out in agitation while worrying that something bad happened.
But when they arrived, everyone from Spring House fell down and gave thanks. This was because of the figure they were waiting for, the figure of their lifesaver. The Spring Ancestor had come and taught the figure of a True Earth cultivator who continuously attacked the Spring House without cause.
“I didn't expect if only some time left Spring House, someone like you has dared to come and bully my house?!” The tone issued by the Spring Ancestor was actually not too harsh, but it was accompanied by an earth energy so powerful that it was able to shake the defensive formation that was in front of it.
As for the figure of a True Earth cultivator who was there trembling in fear feeling the might of the almighty Spring House ancestor before him. Previously he had suffered quite severe injuries due to the attack of the Spring House ancestors.
“Damn it! They said that the Spring Ancestor was severely injured and was unable to use his full strength! But what I see is not only he is healthy but also full of energy!” A True Earth Cultivator swore in his heart.
The cultivator fell silent, he was a mercenary cultivator so after this no one was able to protect him because he moved alone. In addition, he also accepted this offer from the other party using the lower and illegal paths so that he could not sue the Spring ancestors on the officials of the Territorial Region.
“I'm sorry sir! I can't say it because I've done the blood oath! Please forgive me” For the sake of his survival, that cultivator kowtowed in front of everyone. He no longer cared about his dignity and worth as a True Earth cultivator.
Ancestor Spring cleared his throat coldly, “You don't seem to be saying it, therefore your life will be useless!” Ancestor Spring shook his head slowly. He unleashed a powerful attack where instantly the True Earth cultivator disappeared as if it was engulfed by the earth.
Just a gentle breeze and a huge hole witnessed the disappearance of a True Earth cultivator that day in front of the Spring House territory. Of course the earth's decree was taken quickly by the ancestor and did not let it linger there for long.
After which, all the elders rejoiced and welcomed their great ancestors. All their worries and fears were gone when they saw the power that their ancestors had displayed in front of everyone.
“I want there will be no celebration before Spring House becomes the sole ruler of Huansen Province, also from today I announce you must prepare to become the ruler of the province in the future”
Although they were again skeptical to hear the words of Spring's ancestors, still one two people came forward and gave the same hope. The ancestor also noticed it but he did not bother because it would not take long for everyone to have the same expectations as him.
While it is not difficult for the other eight houses to know that their plans have completely failed. Ancestor Spring instead died but returned with much doubled strength. Therefore the Fire and Water Ancestor blamed the black ancestor the most for his plan having failed and the prediction of the black ancestor was incorrect.
“The Ancestor of Spring would not dare to hold accountable the ancestors of Fire and Water as both of them were Early Earth layer cultivators. But not with the fate of other ancestors let alone four ancestors whose strength is only in the realm of Advanced Earth.” Ancestor Kim shook his head slowly on his throne hearing the news.
He immediately ordered to send various gifts and bouquets for Spring House. And he will visit personally along with various kinds of gifts and explain them to the Spring ancestors.
Ancestor Kim was aware that Ancestor Spring had to be as strong as himself or perhaps like the Water and Fire ancestor to be able to break free from the curse of the black ancestor. Therefore it should not be the connection between the two houses of the ruler stretched by this incident.
