“Without much thought, it was clear that the side branches of these ancient clans had begun mobilizing the various forces in the Independent State, big and small, with the intention of having them join when the main branch and side branch went to war.
…
That night, Ye Wanwan, accompanied by Wen Ziran, several elders from the Fearless Alliance, Beidou, and others, went to the Si Shi Ancient Clan.
It had to be said that the Si Shi Ancient Clan was a top-tier superpower in the Independent State, and the scale of their influence was astonishing.
In the meeting hall of the Si Shi Ancient Clan, Ye Wanwan immediately spotted Si Yehan sitting beside the clan chief.
It had to be said that these two individuals did bear some resemblance.
Due to the importance of the meeting, it was rather solemn, and those who attended were all prominent figures in the Independent State. Therefore, Ye Wanwan and Si Yehan did not have much interaction in the room.
The words of the Si Shi Clan Chief were straightforward.
They wanted them to join the side branches to resist the invasion of the main branch.
However, among these many major forces, most were non-committal and unwilling to accept. No one wanted to be the first to make a move, as once they agreed, they would be in opposition to the main branch.
Even Ye Wanwan did not express whether she would join the side branch of the ancient clans.
Currently, with the main mother and head of the Nie family imprisoned by the main branch, joining the side branch now might provoke the main branch, and the consequences would be unthinkable.
Si Yehan’s suggestion was the same; he advised her not to act rashly for the time being and to wait for the right moment.
After leaving the ancient clan, Si Yehan escorted Ye Wanwan back to the Fearless Alliance. The three of them had dinner at the Fearless Alliance and waited until Tangtang fell asleep before Si Yehan left.
In recent days, Ashura had too many matters to handle, which required Si Yehan’s personal attention.
In the following two days, both the Fearless Alliance and the Sin Domain announced that the Fearless Alliance had joined the Sin Domain, becoming the fourth major core force of the Sin Domain.
Now, the Fearless Alliance was firmly bound to the Sin Domain, especially in such special times, they had agreed to share resources.
Apart from this, another sensational event occurred in the Independent State. Ashura, acting alone, had wiped out three branches of the Martial Arts Union Guild in the Independent State overnight and destroyed six important resources of the Martial Arts Union Guild.
Subsequently, the Martial Arts Union Guild launched a counterattack, with Tian Hen and the Butcher Gate immediately joining the fray, resulting in a full-scale battle between the two sides.
“A-Jiu… why are you fighting against the Martial Arts Union Guild?” Within the Fearless Alliance, Ye Wanwan initiated a video call with Si Yehan.
“Is Tangtang well?” Si Yehan asked.
“She just had dinner and is playing with Thirteen and Da Bai and Xiao Hei on the thirteenth floor,” Ye Wanwan replied truthfully.
“Wait… I asked you why you’re fighting against the Martial Arts Union Guild.”
During this recent period, the Independent State had already been extremely turbulent, and the matter with the Martial Arts Union Guild was better left aside for now.
“What do you think?” Si Yehan asked.
Ye Wanwan: “…”
In fact, Ye Wanwan had already guessed that Ashura was confronting the Martial Arts Union Guild not because of the island incident but likely because of what Si Xia had done to her back then.
However, making the forces of the Sin Domain assess the situation was not very realistic, including the Fearless Alliance; none of them were particularly compliant.
“You don’t need to be concerned about this matter; it’s just a small battle,” Si Yehan said.
On this matter, Ye Wanwan did not refute.”
