Residence of the Breaking Clan in Heaven Dou City.
A terrifying Green Scale Serpent descended from the sky carrying hundreds of people, finally transforming into human form and landing on the ground amidst the astonished gazes of various scouts.
Seeing that they had arrived home, the string that had been pulled taut in Yang Wudi's heart finally slackened. Recalling their experiences throughout the day, it had been far too thrilling. It was the kind of situation where one careless move would have resulted in the annihilation of his entire clan; he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Yang Wutian felt much the same. Now that the crisis of clan extinction had passed, he just wanted to get some good rest. As an eighty-third-level Soul Douluo, he had fought three Clear Sky Hammer Title Douluo and one peak Clear Sky Hammer Soul Douluo in succession today. He felt completely drained and didn't want to do anything, but unfortunately, there were still many matters that required him, the Clan Leader, to handle.
Yang Hong and the Bone Douluo Gu Rong, who had come specifically to assist, saw Yun Ming and his party return with so many unfamiliar faces. Realizing the outcome, they were both filled with joy.
Yang Wutian first thanked the two Title Douluo, Gu Rong and Dugu Bo, and offered an apology, explaining that the Breaking Clan had just suffered a great battle and there were many complex internal affairs that needed to be arranged. Gu Rong and Dugu Bo waved their hands, not minding at all and expressing their understanding.
Afterward, Yang Wutian wasted no time in personally arranging for his clansmen to take these Clear Sky Affiliates away, imprisoning them, feeding them medicine, and overseeing the entire process.
Then, he summoned Yang Hong and told him to invite the Defense Clan to go to the Clear Sky Sect together. They needed to scavenge the wealth, precious medicines, and treasures that the Clear Sky Sect had accumulated over the years as the Number One Sect Under Heaven. They had only had a few people earlier, so it was difficult to handle such tasks. The Clear Sky Sect had destroyed most of their new clan land, ruining many fine medicines and causing them such massive property damage; they had to make them pay it back properly.
As Yang Wutian went to arrange the various complex matters, the members of the Breaking Clan and the remaining people from the Clear Sky Sect were led away. Yun Ming and Yang Wudi found a clean room to host the two Title Douluo.
Yang Wudi bowed respectfully and sincerely to Dugu Bo and Gu Rong to express his gratitude.
"For today's events, I must thank Senior Dugu and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect for their assistance. Such a heavy debt of gratitude, my Breaking Clan will never forget!"
Seeing this, Yun Ming also followed Yang Wudi in bowing respectfully to the two Title Douluo. For today's events, these two parties had indeed done a great favor for his Breaking Clan.
If not for Ning Fengzhi's help in recovering soul power today, although he could have relied on the formation he previously used to replenish Ya Li's soul power, his high soul power level and extremely high quality of soul power would have inevitably delayed him for a much longer time. He would not have been able to reach the battlefield so quickly after providing remote support.
Given that his Grandfather Yang Wudi had been facing a life-or-death crisis just as Yun Ming arrived, the situation would have directly reversed, and the Breaking Clan would likely have been wiped out. If that had happened, even if Yun Ming destroyed the entire Clear Sky Sect to complete his revenge later, what would it matter? The dead would not return to life, and that would have been a lifelong pain for Yun Ming.
Dugu Bo was the same; he had accompanied the Breaking Clan to kill throughout the entire process, from Heaven Dou City to the Clear Sky Sect, and he had done his fair share of transporting as well. He was an absolutely perfect teammate!
Although, judging by today's situation, Yun Ming could still have killed the Clear Sky Sect's Three and Five Elders who were executing the genocide on his own, it would have inevitably increased his workload significantly. Furthermore, he might not have been able to wipe out the Clear Sky Sect entirely during the subsequent attack. After all, that place was their lair, and after more than a decade, the Clear Sky Sect had long since changed some of their layouts. They certainly weren't as familiar with it as the Clear Sky Sect, which would have led to unexpected complications.
Considering all of the above, Yun Ming bowed very earnestly.
Dugu Bo accepted it with a smile, then helped Yang Wudi and Yun Ming up.
"I accept this gesture. Brother Yang, Yun kid, get up!"
Gu Rong also spoke with a smile.
"You two are too polite. When I arrived, you had already finished fighting. I feel a bit unworthy of this!"
Yun Ming stood up and said solemnly.
"If Senior hadn't rushed over to protect the Breaking Clan, we might not have dared to go to the Clear Sky Sect. Not only would we have failed to wipe them out, but there might have been endless future troubles. Senior is certainly worthy of this."
Gu Rong smiled upon hearing this; he was very satisfied with Yun Ming's gratitude. Any normal person, compared to an ungrateful wretch, would prefer someone like Yun Ming who knows how to repay kindness.
Gu Rong chuckled.
"Put that way, I feel a little more worthy of it. In that case, I'll give you another gift, which can be considered a return for your thanks."
As he spoke, black light flashed on Gu Rong's right hand, a spatial rift appeared, and a battered figure fell out of the rift, crashing heavily onto the ground.
Yang Wudi looked closely and said in surprise.
"Clear Sky Fourth Elder, Tang Ziyi!"
Before anyone else could ask, Gu Rong explained.
"You kid was right to invite me over. Not long after you set off for the Clear Sky Sect, this old fellow came to your Breaking Clan."
Afterward, Gu Rong told the three of them about how he had sensed spatial fluctuations and intended to investigate, only to be blocked by the Clear Sky Sect Grand Elder, as well as what happened afterward. Upon hearing this, Yang Wudi bowed to Gu Rong again to express his gratitude. If Gu Rong hadn't helped hold back the Grand Elder, their Breaking Clan would have been finished!
After Yun Ming understood most of the cause and effect, he also felt a lingering fear; it had been too thrilling.
Gu Rong waved his hand and said.
"Alright, I'll leave him for you to deal with. Do as you please!"
Yang Wudi glanced at the person on the ground, channeled his soul power, and swept the Fourth Elder out of the room. He raised his hand, and the Soul Breaking Spear appeared. He threw it, piercing through the Fourth Elder's chest. After the Fourth Elder's body twitched for a moment, all signs of life vanished. His old brothers were all gone, so Yang Wudi naturally had to help him catch up with the group; otherwise, how lonely he would be!
The others didn't react much; the Fourth Elder's end was within their expectations.
Glancing at Yun Ming, Dugu Bo said to Yang Wudi with a hint of envy.
"Although I put in some effort, the Yun kid was the key to today."
"You have a good grandson!"
Dugu Bo was incredibly envious of the fact that Yang Wudi had a grandson like Yun Ming; it was a pity he couldn't take him as a son-in-law!
Hearing Dugu Bo's praise, Yang Wudi felt a sense of pride; Yun Ming was the greatest pride of his life!
Afterward, Yun Ming and the others chatted a bit more about their experiences at the Clear Sky Sect and their future plans. Seeing that the three of them seemed quite tired, Gu Rong left a message saying to speak up if they needed help, and then took his leave.
Dugu Bo also departed afterward. He had been busy ever since landing at the Breaking Clan, and he had even activated his Spirit Avatar twice. Even with his Title Douluo-level soul power, he was nearly drained, so he went back to rest as well.
Yun Ming silently noted all of this; he would repay these debts of gratitude in the future.
The matters regarding the Breaking Clan had temporarily come to an end, but a storm was about to break out in the Soul Master World.
