“Not long after, from the legitimate lineage, the man in the black robe finally made his appearance.
With the arrival of the man in the black robe, the legitimate lineage immediately intensified their attacks, intending to break through the boundary line in one fell swoop.
However, powerful members of the collateral ancient clans poured out almost recklessly, turning the northern battlefield into a slaughterhouse with countless casualties.
On the battlefield, Ye Wanwan stared at the man in the black robe not far away, her eyes filled with icy determination.
This man not only killed her brother… but it’s highly likely that he’s the one who murdered her grandfather!
“I want to see who you really are!”
Ye Wanwan shouted coldly and rushed towards the man in the black robe.
“Feng Bai, what are you trying to do?!”
Seeing this, a strong member of the legitimate lineage immediately grabbed Ye Wanwan and shouted, “Are you planning to violate the strategic cooperation agreement?!”
Hearing this, Ye Wanwan sneered, “This is my personal grudge with him, and besides, he’s made it clear before that he’s not from your legitimate lineage. The strategic cooperation agreement clearly states that you have no authority to interfere with non-legitimate lineage forces.”
Without giving the legitimate lineage a chance to speak, Ye Wanwan continued, “Furthermore, did I attack him? Can’t you see that he’s being besieged by elite members of over a dozen collateral ancient clans? I’m going to help.”
“Help?” The legitimate lineage member was slightly taken aback. Given her current stance, it didn’t look like she was there to help at all.
Before the legitimate lineage member could say anything more, several elite members of the Ji family attacked him, and he engaged in a battle with them.
Seeing this, Ye Wanwan withdrew quietly and approached the man in the black robe unnoticed.
Wherever the man in the black robe went, it seemed as if “not even a blade of grass could grow,” his actions were ruthless, and in a short time, numerous powerful figures from various factions had already fallen by his hand.
With the appearance of the man in the black robe relieving some of the pressure, Yi Shuihan’s side was able to make significant progress into the interior of the collateral ancient clans.
Watching the situation before her, Ye Wanwan became increasingly suspicious.
Originally, the legitimate lineage and the collateral lineage had a slight difference in strength, but with the addition of the man in the black robe, their strengths were almost evenly matched.
Logically speaking, with both sides having similar combat power, they shouldn’t be consuming their forces like this…
However, under the influence of the man in the black robe, the legitimate lineage was already at the point of no return and had to continue this way.
Even Ye Wanwan could see that both the legitimate lineage and the collateral lineage were suffering greatly.
“If we continue like this, even if we win… how many of us will be left?”
Jiang Ying spoke to the man in the black robe through the communication device.
Jiang Ying was extremely dissatisfied with the man in the black robe’s tactics.
“Chief Jiang.” The man in the black robe chuckled, “As the saying goes, don’t doubt people, don’t use suspicious people. Since you’ve chosen to use me, you should trust me, shouldn’t you?”
“I didn’t doubt you, but your tactics… even if we win against the collateral lineage, what’s the point?” Jiang Ying furrowed his brow.
The man in the black robe’s tactics were too radical; all the legitimate lineage wanted was to defeat the collateral lineage and dominate the Independent State.
But the man in the black robe’s tactics clearly aimed at mutually assured destruction with the collateral lineage!
“Hehe…” The man in the black robe laughed lightly, “Chief Jiang, don’t be too impatient… now, the command of the legitimate lineage’s operations is in my hands. Just watch my performance calmly, and I’ll definitely give you a satisfactory answer…”
“Let’s hope so.” Jiang Ying said.
…
Now, whether it was the forces supporting the legitimate lineage or the various factions supporting the collateral lineage, they were both terrified and furious at the man in the black robe.”
