Celestial 'War God' Return-Chapter 281: Sun Qian’s Decision

"You’re right, Old Sun." Xiao Luo sighed in disappointment. "Even though our two clans are prosperous, we are still not comparable to those first-grade clans. Since I have no other choice, I will try to break through to the next stage with my abilities, and I will wait for the next auction to look for useful items."

"Haha," Sun Qian laughed at that. "Old Xiao, those items are indeed useful to help us, but we can’t depend on them, so you don’t need to regret it." 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

After they had talked for a while, Xiao Luo decided to leave the Sun Clan, but he was disappointed that he couldn’t get the information he needed from Sun Quan.

’Tch! That old bone seems to be keeping everything from me on purpose.’ Xiao Luo contacted Xie Jun and conveyed his conversation with Sun Qian to him. ’I hope they don’t get angry with me, or I will suffer.’

Before long, Xiao Luo received a reply from Xie Jun, who ordered him to contact his granddaughter. ’Do they really want to use Sun Xiang to force Sun Qian to surrender to them?’

Xiao Luo immediately contacted Xiao Meng to talk to her, but he couldn’t contact her because she was inside the ark. He tried to contact Xiao Hua, but the result was the same because the old woman was with his granddaughter. ’Where did those two go? Why can’t I contact them? Sigh! I will ask my son to go to the outside world and check their situation.’

Meanwhile, Sun Qian stood on the roof of the main hall with Zhang Xingcai, watching Xiao Luo continue to move away from their clan.

"Father, the Xie Clan deliberately sent him here to gather information from you."

"Yes," Sun Qian nodded at his daughter-in-law. "He usually informed me before he came here, but he suddenly came and asked me about those things. Moreover, he knew about the arrival of Old Huang and Tantai Lingyan a few days ago, so I’m sure the Xie Clan sent him to gather information. Fortunately, we already know that he’s in cahoots with them, so I’ve prepared myself."

"Did you deliberately tell him that Uncle Huang and Sister Lingyan’s cultivation is still at the Emperor Level?"

"I did." Sun Qian turned his head to her. "If I tell him that their cultivation has reached the Tyrant Level, he will inform the Xie Clan about it, and they will hunt them down. I’m not worried about Tantai Lingyan because she no longer has any family, and all the cultivators on Earth II know that she has no more contact with the Tantai Clan. However, Old Huang is different from her, and everyone knows that he still leads the Tang Clan. If they find out about his current cultivation, they will attack his clan, and the casualties will be heavy."

Zhang Xingcai nodded in understanding. "These few days, I saw many people trying to infiltrate our clan, Father. I think they are from the Xie Clan, and I suspect they infiltrated here specifically for Tang Yin. Fortunately, she and Qingge are no longer here, so they can’t do anything to her. Besides, they also sent people to the Zhang Clan, and my parents are already on standby to deal with them."

"I had already anticipated that, so I had already ordered Wei’er to tell our clan members not to talk about them." Sun Qian looked away. "Even though they desperately want to control me and our clan, I’m sure they won’t dare make a move openly, especially with Wang Fuxi being on Earth II now."

"Oh?" Zhang Xingcai was a little surprised to hear that. "Since when did Wang Fuxi return to Earth II? Isn’t the meeting still a few days away?"

"She came back three days ago, and she contacted me, asking many things about the Xiao and Xie Clans." Sun Qiang told his daughter-in-law about his conversation with Wang Fuxi a few days ago. "I couldn’t lie to her, so I told her that I got all the information from Old Huang and Tantai Lingyan."

"Did she ask about Tang Xiao and Tang Yin?"

"She didn’t ask about the two of them." Sun Qian exhaled softly. "Xingcai, I will keep an eye on those people’s movements, but you must remain vigilant, and you must protect Xiang’er."

Zhang Xingcai nodded. "Ever since those people infiltrated our clan, I’ve been monitoring my daughter because I’m afraid that they’ll do something to her, and they might use her to force you to submit to them."

"The Xie Clan is truly evil, and they will use any means to subdue us. If Xiang’er falls into their hands, she will suffer, and I have no choice but to surrender to them." Sun Qian remembered something. "Didn’t Old Huang say that Tang Xiao’s clone is training in the southern region? I think it would be best if Xiang’er goes with him now so those people won’t be able to find her, and we won’t have to worry about her safety."

"But, Father—"

Sun Qian sighed softly and grabbed her shoulder. "Xingcai, I know that you don’t like Tang Xiao because he has a polygamous relationship, but Xiang’er’s safety is much more important. She’s not safe in our clan or the outside world, and the safest place for her is by his side, so we should let them be together for now. Regarding their relationship, we will talk to him when he comes to our clan in the future, and we will make a decision at that time."

"I’m going to see my daughter now, Father."

"Go." After Zhang Xingcai left, Sun Qian flew down from the roof and went to see his second son to talk about his other two grandchildren.

.

.

.

"Xingcai."

"Come in, Mom." Sun Xiang looked at her mother. "What’s wrong, Mom? Why is your expression so unpleasant?"

"Isn’t this because of you?" Sun Xiang knew her mother didn’t like Tang Xiao, but they hadn’t talked about him in the past few days, so her mother’s response confused her. "Can you contact him?"

"Eh? Why did you suddenly ask me to contact him?" Zhang Xingcai told her daughter about the intruders in their clan, and Sun Qian thought that the safest place for her now was by Tang Xiao’s side. "Mom, I—"

"Xingcai, I don’t like Tang Xiao, but your safety is the most important to me. Your grandfather and I have heard that he has the space element, so he should be able to protect you easily." Sun Xiang also knew that, but she was still confused about her mother’s decision. "In the past few days, people from the Xie Clan have infiltrated our clan, and they also sent Xiao Luo here today to seek information from your grandfather. We’re afraid they’ll target you if they know you’re here, so we want you to go to his side, and you can come back here after the cultivators’ meeting in a few days."

Sun Xiang was shocked to hear that people from the Xie Clan had infiltrated their clan. "I—"

"No." Zhang Xingcai stopped her. "You’re not their match, and you’ll be a burden to us if you stay here. I know you want to help us, but you must leave as soon as possible. If they manage to capture you, they’ll use you to force your two grandfathers to surrender to them. If that happens, you should know the risks, right?"

"Yes! What about Sun Yang and Sun Yue? Won’t my grandfather evacuate them?"

"Your grandfather must be talking to Fang Xiaoru right now, and he’s probably asking her to send them to the Fang Clan." Sun Xiang knew her grandfather wasn’t worried about her two cousins ​​because the Fang Clan’s residence was close to the Wang Clan, so people from the Xie Clan wouldn’t dare infiltrate there, and they would be safe there. "Contact Tang Xiao now and ask him to pick you up as soon as possible."

Sun Xiang nodded slightly and contacted Tang Xiao directly, informing him of the situation. She didn’t have to wait long for an answer from him. "He’s taking care of something in a distant area, but he’ll ask Sister Qingge to pick me up, and he’ll pick me up somewhere else."

"Is Qingge still nearby?" Sun Xiang shook her head at her mother because Tang Xiao did not explain the details to her. "How long will it take for her to get here?"

"I don’t know for sure about that, so we can only wait for her to arrive."

Zhang Xingcai pulled her daughter down from the bed. "Let’s wait for Qingge at the main hall."

"Alright."

.

.

.

After they waited a few minutes, Mu Qingge walked into the Sun Clan’s main hall. "Are you ready, Xiang’er?"

"How did you get here so quickly, Qingge?"

"Yin’er and I were training not far from this city, and I headed here after Tang Xiao contacted me." Zhang Xingcai didn’t believe Mu Qingge’s words, and she felt that she was hiding something from them. "If you are ready, we should go now, Xiang’er."

"I’m ready." Sun Xiang hugged and kissed her mother. "Mom, I’ll go with Aunt Qingge now and tell my grandfather not to worry about me. Once things have calmed down, I’ll come back here straight away."

Zhang Xingcai still wanted to ask Mu Qingge, but her daughter’s safety was far more important to her. "Qingge, please tell Tang Xiao to protect my daughter, and I’ll settle accounts with him if anything bad happens to her."

"Alright."
