Chaotic Sword God

ng with an old man.

Not long after the middle-aged man entered the ferry, the hurried sounds of another carriage echoed in the distance once again.
This time, it was a luxurious carriage escorted by several dozen large men in golden armors.
In the end, it too stopped at the entrance to the docks, and an old man in embroidered robes climbed down from the carriage.
Under the protection of two large, middle-aged men, he strode into the ferry.

“That’s the carriage of the Zhou family, one of the eight great clans of the City of God.
Who would’ve thought that they’ve come too…” Some people recognised the identity of the group of people and immediately cried out softly in surprise.

Suddenly, a scorching wave of heat rolled in from the distance, as if the surrounding air was on fire, and caused the temperature of the river bank to rise.

“It’s the Fire God clan, and the head of the eight great clans.
Even the people from the Fire God clan have come.” There were several immediate exclamations of surprise from the crowd.

There seemed to be a burning red cloud in the murky distance.
Over twenty people on Class 5 Magical Beasts escorted a carriage.
The people wore long, fire-red robes and gave off a scorching, fire-attributed presence.
As they approached the lake, the thin vapor over Fragrance River slowly turned to thick mist.

“The Fire God clan is extremely powerful.
Not only are they the head of the eight great clans, I heard that their strength is already approaching the rulers of the City of God, the Zaar family.”

“I heard that there is an extremely lengthy history to the Fire God clan.
That they are an ancient clan that had survived from the ancient times and they say that in the ancient times, the Fire God clan was one of the most powerful forces on the Tian Yuan Continent.
Just that with so many years, the clan’s slowly declined, and fell to such a level today.”

“The Fire God clan always keeps a low profile in the City of God.
Who would’ve thought that they’d come to Fragrance River in such a grand scale.
I really wonder what will happen tonight!”

“Quick, look, more have come.
That’s people from the Saer clan.
I never thought that another of the eight great clans would come.”

“Heavens, those people are from the Madison clan.
Just what is going on tonight? Half of the eight great clans have actually come…”

“Aren’t they from the Qilong clan? The Qilong clan of the eight great clans have also come…”

“Quick, looks, isn’t that the carriage from the Hou clan? I never thought that even people from the Hou clan would come…”

“And that, isn’t that people of the Decken clan? My god, people from all eight great clans have actually gathered and from the guards that have come, the people clearly possess quite some status in their clans.
Just what day is it today?”

As the eight clans gathered, it immediately caused quite a large commotion at Fragrance River.
Very soon, the news of the eight great clans gathering at Fragrance River spread like wildfire.
Even the smaller ferries floating about in the river could not help themselves but grow slightly closer, and even the zither sounds and sweet songs reverberating on the surface of the river became quieter.

As the people of the eight clans all entered the ferry, the Inky Stratus, which had been docked there for quite some time, it also began to leave slowly.
It broke the surface of the water, and slowly floated towards the centre of the river.

On the deck of the Inky Stratus, there were large round tables placed about, all already filled with exotic delicacies.

Jian Chen said a few words to the people of the eight clans, before they all sat down.

“I have long heard that brother Yang Yutian possesses extraordinary talent, and reached Class 6 despite only being twenty four, with talent in practising Radiant Artes approaching Class 7.
In the beginning, I didn’t believe it, but after seeing you two, I realised brother Yang Yutian really is a dragon among men.
Brother Yang Yutian must have gained much from three months of seclusion in the Radiant Saint Tower.” The speaker was an old man, and a member of the Qilong clan.
His status was extremely great, as he was also a Class 6 Radiant Saint Master.

Jian Chen chuckled, “The old senior must be praising me.
I’ve indeed made a few slight gains from the Radiant Saint Tower.
My trip to the Radiant Saint Tower has overturned my understanding towards Radiant Saint Masters.”

“What slight gains, it’s clearly a huge harvest.” Quan Youcai muttered to himself rather unhappily beside Jian Chen, as he disagreed with what Jian Chen had said very much.

Even though Quan Youcai’s voice was relatively soft, it was heard by everyone there.
They all immediately gazed towards Quan Youcai, especially some of the Class 6 Radiant Saint Masters there, they all looked at Quan Youcai with a great jealousy.

“I have long heard master Quan Youcai has raised his abilities of Radiant Artes to an extremely high level, and challenged the expert who ranked seventh of the ten great Radiant Saint Masters, and it ended in a draw.
After a hundred years of hard work, master Quan Youcai’s strength surely has increased by quite a lot.” The speaker was an average-looking middle-aged man.
His tone was relatively cold.
He wore long, white robes with a blue badge on his chest, he was also a Class 6 Radiant Saint Master.

Quan Youcai chuckled, “Of course.
A hundred years ago, my strength was equal to Li Moxin, but after a hundred years, Li Moxin definitely is no longer my opponent.” Speaking up to there, Quan Youcai suddenly stared at the middle-aged man with an ill intention and giggled, “Saer Langke, you also hold the position in the ten great Class 6 Radiant Saint Masters, and you’re ranked sixth.
When we have time, why don’t we exchange some pointer?”

An undetectable coldness flashed across the middle-aged man’s eyes, but his expression remained unchanged.
He said indifferently, “Perfect.
When I have the time, we can properly exchange some pointers.”
