Chapter 984: The Ancient Six Families Again

It was the Si Clan's Third Patriarch from the Ancient Six Families!

Luo Yunyang was very surprised to see this martialist from the Ancient Six Families. However, he felt that it was quite normal as well.

After all, the Ancient Six Families looked like humans, but their hearts had deviated away from the Human Race so much that they seemed more willing to get closer to the Mysterious Underworld Race rather than assist with gathering information on the Mysterious Underworld Race.

"Ha ha ha... The Hall Master has indeed become more handsome than the last time we met. I'm so envious of you!" The Third Patriarch of Si Clan was obviously the leader of his group. Hence, he chortled heartily while exchanging pleasantries with the Sky Martial Hall Master.

A smirk of disdain appeared on the Sky Martial Hall Master's face when he saw the Third Patriarch of Si Clan. However, on the surface, he still laughed and replied, "Oh I was wondering who it was. So it's Si Yun... It's been some time since we last met. How are you doing?"

"Thank you, my lord, for remembering me. I'm doing fine," Si Yun said courteously.

The group of men and women who stood behind the Third Patriarch of Si Clan were all looking at Luo Yunyang and his group and sizing them up.

Their expressions were very calm. Meanwhile, a good-looking man who seemed like the leader of the pack was looking at Jiuzi Xuanming.

"This must be Sir Jiuzi Xuanming. I, Yun Tiansheng, have long admired and heard about you." The handsome man took the lead and spoke first.

The man's cultivation was already at the ninth level Heavenly Venerate, and his aura was no weaker than the aura of those Mysterious Underworld Race elites.

Jiuzi Xuanming looked at Yun Tiansheng and said faintly, "I know about you. I heard that you're the mythical qilin of the first family of the Ancient Six Families. You were born while surrounded and protected by the Hundred Ancient Sacred Illusions."

It was also rumored that this person had been taught by a sage and could be considered extremely proficient in all sorts of cultivation techniques.

Although he was a ninth-level Heavenly Venerate, his cultivation was actually at the Taishi Yuan Venerate level and he was considered the most prized disciple in the Ancient Six Families.

"I'm indeed Yun Tiansheng and I'm very inferior compared to you, Sir Jiuzi Xuanming. Please give me your guidance in the future."

The Third Patriarch of Si Clan was beaming as he watched how friendly Yun Tiansheng was being to Jiuzi Xuanming. Although Yun Tiansheng wasn't a member of Si Clan, he treated Yun Tiansheng as his nephew. There would be immeasurable benefits for him as long as Yun Tiansheng became one of the huge pillars of the entire Six Ancient Families.

"I haven't seen what the Human Race looks like before. I see... So that's what a human looks like." Wanyan Tiannu immediately jumped out and said with slight disdain, "Not that impressive!"

He was dissing. Wanyan Tiannu was obviously dissing the Human Race!

The person he dissed was Yun Tiansheng. However, Yun Tiansheng, the Third Patriarch of Si Clan, as well as the men and women behind him, showed no form of dissatisfaction.

Some of them even smiled after hearing Wanyan Tiannu's impolite words.

Yun Tiansheng did not say anything. Instead, someone else smiled gently before speaking. "Sir, we have nothing to do with the Human Race you just mentioned."

"You can think of it this way: True gold and bronze will shimmer with a golden luster, but their values are vastly different."

"In our opinion, the Human Race now is nothing more than another life form with a similar appearance to us."

The man then added narcissistically, "The reason they look similar to our appearance is because of their reverence for our Ancient Six Families. Speaking of this makes me very irritated!"

Luo Yunyang did not have a good impression of the Ancient Six Families to begin with, but he became angry after hearing what they said.

If he had not had more important things to do now, he might have given that despicable chap a tight slap across the face.

Wanyan Tiannu snorted and did not carry on this conversation. In his opinion, enough was enough.

However, Luo Yunyang made a jab. "That's right, how can a race that fought against the Mysterious Underworld Race and caused us massive losses look so weak?"

"Turns out I mistook bronze for true gold!"

Luo Yunyang spoke heedlessly, as if nothing had happened. After listening to that sentence, all the members of the group of the Six Ancient Families had ugly looks on their faces.

They could ignore Wanyan Tiannu's mockery completely, but Luo Yunyang's words were directed at them and served as a harsh slap.

Although they had been instructed not to start a conflict with the young generation of the Mysterious Underworld Race before arriving, wouldn't they be too embarrassed if they swallowed their pride again?

"Sir, don't you think it's too excessive of you to say this?" Yun Tiansheng was totally unafraid as he glared at Luo Yunyang, who had a Yuan Venerate cultivation.

Luo Yunyang cupped his fists and chuckled. "Aiya, what are you trying to say? Are you unwilling to accept this fact? Let me tell you something. If you're upset, we can resolve it with a battle!"

The Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master shot a look at Luo Yunyang before shaking his head gently. He was also quite pleased to see Luo Yunyang's obvious provocation.

This was not because he was unhappy with the Ancient Six Families, but because he had suffered a loss against Jiuzi Xuanming and firmly believed in his heart that anything that would annoy Jiuzi Xuanming was music to his ears.

Si Yun looked at Yun Tiansheng before speaking. "Tiansheng, get back for now. It's not the time for all of you to speak."

After saying that, he turned to look at the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master and realized that he wasn't going to speak. Then, he looked at Luo Yunyang and asked, "How may I address you, sir?"

The Third Patriarch of Si Clan acted all aggressive in front of the Middle Hall Master, yet he was behaving really humbly now.

Luo Yunyang was a mere junior in front of him. However, even so, the Third Patriarch of Si Clan still did not dare to reprimand him.

Luo Yunyang was annoyed as he looked at the Third Patriarch of Si Clan.

He replied dully, "I'm Nalanye. Remember my name, because you have enraged me. I will teach all these pieces of trash that you've brought a good lesson."

Insolence! It was utter insolence to say such words. If Luo Yunyang had been speaking as himself, the Third Patriarch of Si Clan would definitely have sent him flying away with a punch.

However, the Third Patriarch of Si Clan could only tolerate this humiliation apart from showing his displeasure.

He turned his gaze to the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master, as he was not aware of Luo Yunyang's origin. Hence, he wanted the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master to give him an explanation.

The Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master looked at the sky and acted as if this had nothing to do with him. Jiuzi Xuanming furrowed his brows before glancing at another young Mysterious Underworld Race elite that was standing beside him.

Although the young elite was only an eighth-level Heavenly Venerate, the aura coming from his body was not very inferior compared to a ninth-level Heavenly Venerate.

He shot a glance at Luo Yunyang before speaking. "Nalanye, the competition this time is between you and Jiuzi Xuanming. Do not drag these innocents into it. It will not benefit you at all, and neither will it benefit the Mysterious Underworld Race."

Si Yun and the other powerhouses of the Ancient Six Families finally understood that they were the innocent bystanders of a conflict.

The Mysterious Underworld elite who spoke was unhappy with Jiuzi Xuanming. He and the others got close to Jiuzi Xuanming because they had offended the other party.

They could ignore this Yuan Venerate Mysterious Underworld being, but this person had to be an extraordinary individual if he was able to compete against Jiuzi Xuanming.

They could cast this matter aside after being verbally insulted, but going up against someone who could go head-to-head against Jiuzi Xuanming was not a very good idea for them.

"He he... What disadvantages are there? They are just a bunch of insects who are smooth with words. Could they actually dare become enemies with us, the Mysterious Underworld Race?" Luo Yunyang said impolitely.

All the younger-generation elites of the Six Ancient Families nearly blew up when they heard that sentence. They had always been high and lofty within the boundaries of their territories.

They were equally unbridled when facing powerhouses from the Human Race and they'd never expected to be humiliated by a Mysterious Underworld Race elite after arriving there!

Not only was this like a slap in the face for them, but it was also done in an absolutely unrestrained manner. It was extremely painful and uncomfortable for every single one of them, especially so for Yun Tiansheng, whose face was now stern and cold. Behind him, a sacred image holding a sky ax that looked like a death god had appeared, intensifying his imposing grandeur.

"Ha ha... This is merely a dispute caused by personal feelings. You don't have to worry about it." This time, the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master guffawed.

Although the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master disliked Jiuzi Xuanming, he was still the person with the most authority over the Mysterious Underworld Race members that were present and he knew that the Six Ancient Families were very important to the Mysterious Underworld Race.

A few mocking exchanges were a small matter, but the gains would not make up for the losses if the Ancient Six Families suffered too much humiliation.

Luo Yunyang was hoping to teach a good lesson to the chap from the Ancient Six Families, but he knew that he could not be too unbridled with the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master and the other people around. Furthermore, the inheritance of the Second Ancient Yuan Underworld Lord was more important than teaching a lesson to the Six Ancient Families.

"Humph!" After snorting in disdain to show his dissatisfaction, Luo Yunyang shot a provocative glance at the powerhouses from the Ancient Six Families.

Although the powerhouses were unhappy about it, they had received Si Yun's voice transmission in their minds so they did not dare to retort against Nalanye. Hence, most of them chose to look away.

They could not afford to offend him. They could only let it be.

Luo Yunyang sneered to himself after seeing how the powerhouses from the Ancient Six Families reacted. Just as he was about to retract his cold stare, he discovered that a member of the Ancient Six Families' group was laughing.

This person was actually laughing at him!
