Celestial Peak

The Xie Clan is at a precarious, though it was not a peak family in the central regions, it was still a powerful family that is quickly devouring a number of forces. Big and small, he is making moves on them and trying to a.s.similate them with the Xie Clan.

On the table, a number of pieces were laid out across the different domains. The mark of the Xie Clan was a devil mask and the majority of the Dark Domain was already filed by devil masks.

But there are other marks that could be seen on the map. A dark red spear was situated on the Frost Domain and had taken over half of it. The spear was the symbol of one great celestial who was said to be the greatest genius of that weapon of his generation, w.a.n.g Shu Qing, the War G.o.d of the Blood Spear.

"The three places the w.a.n.g Family had already planted their roots deeply is the Frost Domain, Holy Domain, and the Thunder Domain. I thought the moment the agreement was broken it would be the time to destroy them, but who would have thought they would make their moves before that b.i.t.c.h Xiao Fei"er comes out. For them to form a connection to the Yan Clan is a major pain for us!"

Bam!

He hit the table and all of the pieces tumbled and fell, Xiao Wu was p.i.s.sed. The plans he had concocted with Xie Ro was crumbling down at a slow and steady pace. As he stared at the place where the w.a.n.g Family was situated, Xie Wu was cursing and glaring at it intently.

"Easy now, my dear brother, you"re the current Clan Head and as the Clan Head you can"t be losing your cool like this." As Xie Wu"s attention was fully given to the map, a voice was heard so he raised his head in alertness.

Xie Wu raised his head and across the table was Xie Ro who was checking the map with a blank face.

"Xie Ro, you"re finally out of the seclusion? Hmm, you couldn"t push through to transcend Mortality?" Xie Wu was surprised but he composes himself quickly and asked the specifics and the important details without much effort of speaking unnecessary chatters.

Xie Ro picked up the spear piece and then turned to look at Xie Wu, "Don"t worry about my breakthrough, this is merely a little break. I receive a pretty unpleasant report about the plan getting disrupted and I don"t think this little trouble is going to be little. Status report? The exact one, not the ones you fed my little children."

Xie Wu became serious and turned to the map and pointed at the Dark Domain where there was nothing and was only an empty mountain.

"The gate is about to open but the sacrifices are incomplete and we are missing an ingredient that I can"t get my hands on. The [Red Spirit Stone] is unavailable for the past ten years and as we have feared, it is still unavailable to this day." Xie Wu explained with a grave expression.

Xie Ro creased his brows and asked, "Are there any alternatives? The Spirit Stone is the thing we need to fully open the gate. Are there any alternatives that we can use?"

Xie Wu turned his eyes to the side and said, "There is one but it is rather troublesome to get and we need to join the Ten Year Bout to get that item. Aside from that, we can"t seem to find the Devil Lotus Emperor you need. I fear we have to send my son and number 1 or 2 to the Red Land."

"So, the [Blood Soul Stone] is the item we will be going for huh. This gate is a headache for me, but we need to move forward. The Blood Soul Stone might an alternative and might need a lot more sacrifice, but that could be supplemented easily. We will enter the Ten Year Bout, we can"t have Xie Hai do it, I"ll number 5 to 7 enter.

"As for the Devil Lotus Emperor, I think you"re right and it would be best to send number 2 in order to retrieve it. I can"t let number 1 out of my presence right now, the planting process is still at its embryonic phase."

Xie Wu nodded his head, "I understand, that does it then. Moving on, although the Domain is getting harder to control, we should be able to take control of it just before the Red Land opens. I told your disciples that it is hard to control the Domain as they might get killed by that pesky Bloodbath Devil, I think he"s targeting the Clan, did he perhaps sensed you and is somehow attacking us because of that? But he had left for the Earth Domain already we need not worry about him for now. "

Xie Ro did not speak. The Bloodbath Devil was a True Devil General, he does not know what it wants by wreaking in his territory, but at the end of the day, it will be easy to control once he meets it so it doesn"t really matter.

"What of the key? I thought we found one already?"

Xie Wu smiled as he answered, "We actually have two candidates and they are from your favorite Family… do you want the firstborn son or the young la.s.s?"

Xie Ro showed a nasty smile as he said, "Let us go with the la.s.s, but let"s hold that for now. If we touch her there will be war, but before we take her to make sure to have ample preparations first."

"Don"t worry, the Mu brat is already moving."

A very nasty smile appeared on their faces. Their scheming continued for two days straight.
