God of War Ye Fan: Sexy sister-in-law insisted on marrying me-Chapter 975: Betrayed and Yet Overjoyed!
Chapter 975: Chapter 975: Betrayed and Yet Overjoyed!
"Everything will proceed as planned. I’ll remain in the shadows to control the entire operation. Just go ahead and do it!"
"There were some unexpected incidents last night. Someone attacked one of the vassal families of the Soul Hall. I tracked them all night and have already dealt with it!"
The text message was sent by Qi Xiao!
Seeing this text message, all the Soul Hall envoys couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. When they raised their heads to look at each other, their gazes were filled with relaxation!
So that’s what happened?
The Elder went to track the strong individual who had attacked that family. No wonder there hadn’t been any updates.
As long as the Elder is watching the scene from the shadows, the vassal families of the Soul Hall have the confidence to act.
Even if Ye Fan arrives on-site, with the Elder’s strength, it shouldn’t be too difficult to stop him.
But little did they know, Qi Xiao had sold them all out!
And this was Ye Fan’s plan all along!
The goal was to use today’s Ancient Martial Alliance conference to force all the dissenters and opposing forces within the Ancient Martial World to emerge, so they could be dealt with in one sweep.
Otherwise, when Ye Fan enters the Immortal Domain later, leaving behind a mess for Nangong Aoyue to handle would be troublesome.
"Brothers! Everything is fine now. The Elder has sent a text message. Take a look..."
A group of Soul Hall envoys handed the text message to the heads of the vassal families under them to verify.
After everyone took turns confirming, they all nodded subtly.
Since Elder Qi has arrived at the scene, there’s no trouble!
But the Ancient Martial Alliance conference was about to begin, and yet Ye Fan still hadn’t shown up. Nangong Aoyue was genuinely getting nervous now. "That troublemaker... What on earth is he up to?"
Nangong Aoyue glanced at Guo Li, the Moon Worm, the Enchanting Demon, and others next to her... Her heart hesitated. If Ye Fan didn’t show up, could she rely solely on these subordinates?
Although there were plenty of rumors stating that the Outer Realm Beings were incredibly powerful, Nangong Aoyue also understood that the strength of the Soul Hall’s experts was not to be underestimated!
If the Outer Realm Beings acted, could they really hold them off?
Moreover, according to the latest news, the families determined to confront the Nangong Family today numbered in the hundreds... Among them were hundreds of Martial Emperor strong and numerous Martial Saints, as well as Divinity Transformation Realm powerhouses... If all of them acted together, the sheer force would be overwhelming...
"Alright! Xiao Yue, don’t wait for Brother Fan anymore. Just focus on hosting the Ancient Martial Alliance conference! Everything will be fine!"
Hua Xueyan, although worried, had unconditional trust in Ye Fan.
Whether in the Capital or the Northwest, or even in Sin City, considering all the current information, although Ye Fan might occasionally arrive late, he had never truly been absent.
Ye Fan was Nangong Aoyue’s fiancé—how could he not care!
"Alright!"
With Ye Fan still not showing up, there wasn’t much else Nangong Aoyue could do!
Nangong Aoyue cleared her throat and stood up, intending to head to the stage and officially begin the Ancient Martial Alliance conference.
But as Nangong Aoyue stepped onto the stage and was about to speak, Shu Yun, the head of the Shu Family in the front row, immediately jumped up. "Miss Nangong, what do you mean by this? We’ve all been waiting for so long, and the conference hasn’t started yet! Are you still waiting for someone?"
"Haha! Miss Nangong, are you perhaps waiting for your fiancé Ye Fan from Sin City?" Shu Yun’s face was filled with mockery. "Let me tell you—based on our intel, Sin City hasn’t even opened its gates yet. Are you sure your fiancé is even alive? Even if he is, he likely won’t make it here in time!"
"Exactly! Miss Nangong, there are only two matters for this Ancient Martial Alliance conference. One is reappointing members to the Elders Council, and the other is discussing the Alliance Hierarch position... In my opinion, there’s no need for discussion. Old Master Nangong has been ill for so long that it’s clear he can no longer oversee the Alliance. Miss Nangong, you don’t need to keep holding on—just relinquish the position already..."
"Agreed! Miss Nangong, hand over the Alliance Hierarch position and the keys to the alliance’s treasure vault! Let’s elect a new Alliance Hierarch and redistribute the Ancient Martial World’s resources. That way, it will be good for you and good for everyone else..."
Uproar!
Egged on by the Yue Family patriarch and others, the entire venue erupted into chaos.
The opposing families, who had long planned to challenge the Nangong Family, seized the moment to step forward and incite the crowd.
The Nangong Family’s influence has been waning, and in the past few years, they’ve struggled to keep the other Ancient Martial Families in check.
Although Nangong Aoyue was talented, her young age and lack of experience worked against her... Coupled with the Soul Hall’s interference, the entire Ancient Martial World had been embroiled in increasing bloodshed recently, with the previous righteous order teetering on the brink of collapse!
As a result, many families observing from the sidelines began to grow increasingly dissatisfied with the current state of the Ancient Martial Alliance’s rule.
Today’s Ancient Martial Alliance conference was a critical juncture for these brewing tensions to erupt.
Nangong Aoyue frowned as she surveyed the chaotic scene. Although she had anticipated many families challenging her, the sheer number rising against her all at once left her feeling somewhat despondent.
Amidst such turmoil, where should she even begin?
"Outrageous! Miss Nangong is a heroine, stepping in for her ailing father to oversee the Ancient Martial Alliance, combat evil cults... fend off Evil Demon invasions, and ensure the safety of all families. Her efforts over the years have been evident to all. What right do you have to demand her resignation?"
Wen Cheng, a core representative of the Evil Martial Alliance and a former foe of the Nangong Family, was now forced to speak on Nangong Aoyue’s behalf due to the Three Corpses Brain Gu placed in his head by Ye Fan.
"According to the rules of the Ancient Martial Alliance, even if we were to replace the Alliance Hierarch, it would be done every five years. There’s still plenty of time before then!" The Duan Family Patriarch from the Eight Great Families chimed in to lend support. "Don’t think I don’t know what you’re scheming. You’re colluding with the Soul Hall, always eyeing the Ancient Martial World..."
"Listen up, everyone! Those Soul Hall members who’ve infiltrated the Ancient Martial World don’t have much better intentions than the Evil Demons! Their ultimate goal is to enslave everyone in the Ancient Martial World, forcing us to offer up our souls and become their property... You all better think this through..."
An uproar!
Duan Peng’s direct confrontation tore away the facade of the Soul Hall.
With just one statement, it was like a bomb exploding among the crowd.
Roars!
The family representatives at the scene started buzzing with agitation!
It was known that the Ancient Martial World was rife with clandestine actions by the major forces of the Immortal Domain, as well as disruptions caused by Evil Demons from the Three Thousand Worlds... Everyone was aware of these movements!
However, the true intentions behind the Soul Hall’s enticement of Ancient Martial Family elites had never come under scrutiny.
The Evil Demons’ aims were explicit: to devour souls, seize the vitality of Ancient Martial experts, and usurp cultivation resources.
But the Soul Hall had previously offered benefits to the families in the Ancient Martial World. No one had anticipated that the Soul Hall also harbored nefarious intentions—to claim the souls of these Ancient Martial beings for their own gain?
If it were anyone else speaking, there might still have been doubt. But it was Duan Peng, one of the Eight Great Families under the Soul Hall, who had even appeared in a livestream last night...
Publicly rebelling against the Soul Hall, together with statements from the remaining six families—this was far too convincing!
