Eternal Reverence - Chapter 96

Chapter 96
There were large empty spaces in between the inner sect and outer sect .

In these spaces, was where clans hosted small battles . Elders of the inner sect and outer sect seldomly interfered in these battles .

On one of these empty lands, which had a perimeter of dozens of meters, was a pavilion . Where disciples from the three clans gradually arrived .

It was obvious that the Guan and Yang Clan had the numbers advantage with 10+ clansmen each . The Li Clan only had 6 clansmen .

Guan Mei and Li Yunhai were here too .

The two of them were outer sect odd job disciples and didn’t have a high status . They were just here to make up numbers in this battle between the three clans .

“Li Tianshi, your Li Clan sure is stingy! You only brought along a few big and small cats? Don’t accuse our Guan Clan for outnumbering you later, huh?” Among the Guan Clan was an arrogant looking youth talking sarcastically .

“Guan Yilong, you are being over optimistic . Nowadays, numbers aren’t reliable anymore, it’s all about ability . ”

The leader from among the Li Clan was a tall and handsome man snorting coldly .

Li Tianshi, the Li Clan’s under 35s’ no . 1; he was 34 this year and was at the eighth level of the Origin Realm .

Guan Yilong who was the leader of Guan Clan’s under 35s . He too was 34 this year and was at the eighth level of the Origin Realm .

Back when the Guan and Li Clan had yet to break all ties, the two of them were already on bad terms . Since they entered the Cang Lan Sect, they would fight openly and scheme covertly . They may not have any serious disputes, but had tons of minor disputes .

“The Li Clan’s pride had always been high up in the sky . Obviously weak but having put up a strong front . What a joke . ”

Among the Yang Clan was a burly built youth with eyes of dominance, sneering .

“Yang Ao, if you don’t talk, nobody would assume you are a mute . ” Li Jinxiu pointed at Yang Ao with a slight angst .

“Li Jinxiu, you relied on your beauty to hook up with a direct disciple . How pathetic and pitiful… Since when did the Li Clan fall to such a state where they have to rely on their descendants to sacrifice their bodies . ”

Yang Ao’s words were so vicious that it made Li Jinxiu extremely agitated .

“You guys can continue, we are just here to spectate . ”

Right at this moment, a group of disciples arrived .

It was the younger generations of the Shen Tu Clan .

The leader of the group led the Shen Tu clansmen to the pavilion and took their seats . Their attitudes were a perfect fit for the saying, ‘To delay entering the fray until all others have been exhausted by fighting amongst themselves’ .

The status of the Shen Tu Clan was much superior than the other 3 clans, regardless of it being within Yunwu City or the Cang Lan Sect . Thus, the other 3 major clans didn’t dare take any risks to offend the Shen Tu Clan .


They would instead try to please the Shen Tu Clan . Whoever could get the support and any ties with Shen Tu Clan, would be able to gain the advantage in Yunwu City .

But a few years back, it was unknown how the Li Clan offended the Shen Tu Clan, and had since been on the decline .

But on the other hand, the Guan and Yang Clan had some good ties with the Shen Tu Clan .

Under the pavilion, Shen Tu Jue and Shen Tu Liang sat in a corner .

Since arriving at the Cang Lan Sect two years ago, Shen Tu Jue had now reached the peak of the ninth level of the Qi Realm . He was estimated to be promoted to be an inner sect disciple at the age of 19 .

As for Shen Tu Liang, he remained as outer sect odd job disciple . During the selection of the odd job disciples, he didn’t rise up above the others and fell short .

Glancing at the disciples of the Guan Clan and Li Clan, Shen Tu Liang felt sullen deep in his heart .



The Guan Clan had Guan Xue and the Li Clan had Li Fuchen . The two of them progressed into the Origin Realm at the age of 16 and were promoted to be inner sect disciples . This made him feel like it was extremely unfair .

He, who was a clansmen of the Shen Tu Clan wasn’t even an outer sect disciple yet .

Only allowed on Creativenovels . com

Guan Xue was currently at second level of Origin Realm too .

She gazed at the Li Clan’s camp and realised that Li Fuchen had yet to arrive .

“Xue mei, this is your first time participating in the fight between the 3 clans . Just be a spectator for now, perhaps a few years later, you would become the leader of our Guan Clan . ” Guan Hong spoke to Guan Xue in a relaxed manner .

(TL note: Younger sister = mei/meimei, Younger brother = di/didi)

“That’s right, only the Yang Clan would be able to make us treat this fight seriously . The Li Clan is not even worthy for us to make a move . ” Guan Yan was very prideful to be one of the Guan clansmen .

Guan Xue didn’t speak and was pondering about something else instead .

“Jinxiu, why isn’t Li Fuchen here yet?” Li Shitian queried to Li Jinxiu .

Li Jinxiu frowned and replied, “I have already invited him and he straight away agreed too . Perhaps he is being delayed?”

“Hmph, not even joining the fight of the 3 clans . This Li Fuchen sure is putting on airs . ” Li Shanhe was unsatisfied .

Li Yunhai spoke in a soft voice, “If he had the family honor in mind, I wouldn’t be an odd job disciple . ”

He always believed that Li Fuchen was the one who snatched away the opportunity that was originally his .



“It’s about time, let the 3 clans fight begin! Li Tianshi, Yang Ao, do you guys have any objections?” Guan Yilong asked .

Yang Ao, “I have none . ”

Li Tianshi gave a sigh, “I have none either . ”

“Alright . If that is the case, everyone can start issuing your challenges . ” Guan Yilong looked towards Guan Peng .

Getting the approval of Guan Yilong, Guan Peng emerged from the group of the Guan clansmen, “Li Yunhai, come out this instance . ”

Among the Guan and Li Clan, only he, Guan Mei and Li Yunhai were at the Qi Realm . Thus, he could only issue his challenge to Li Yunhai .

“Guan Peng, mind your tone . ”

Li Yunhai walked out with a darkened face .

Guan Peng gave a chuckle, “With your inferior status as an odd job disciple, you have no rights to seek respect from me . Less nonsense, fight!”

Guan Peng didn’t give Li Yunhai any chances and started to revolve his seventh rank White Wave Technique, then slashed at Li Yunhai .

Li Yunhai was startled by the immense qi presence of Guan Peng .

During the genius contest, he still had the confidence to fight against Guan Peng .

The current him had no confidence at all and had his fighting spirit dismissed by the opposition’s qi presence .

Ultimately, Li Yunhai couldn’t even take one strike from Guan Peng and got ejected from the fighting grounds .



“Li Fuchen, it’s all because of you!” Li Yunhai howled in his heart .

Even though he obtained the Scarlet Fire Technique as an odd job disciple . Without the assistance of the Scarlet Fire pill for cultivation, he could only reach the sixth rank .

Besides, odd job disciples had tons of chores to handle, which suppressed his cultivation time . Even his sword skills couldn’t match up against Guan Peng’s .

Losing in just one sword move against Guan Peng, caused Li Yunhai to feel utmost shame . He hated Li Fuchen to the core in his heart .

Li Tianshi’s expression turned for the worse .

“Guan Hong, get out here . ” Li Shanhe was anxious to display a performance in front of Li Tianshi and shouted at Guan Hong while pointing at him .
Hearing the challenge, a fifth level Origin Realm disciple of the Guan Clan stood out, “Li Shanhe, aren’t you ashamed? Guan Hong is just 22 years old, while you are 30 . How could you have the pride to call out his name? Let me, Guan Yao, teach you how to be a man . ”

Li Shanhe replied, “Guan Yao, what are you? When was it your turn to teach me how to be a man?”

“You dare speak like this to me . Li Shanhe, since when did your guts grew?”

Guan Yao slashed at Li Shanhe

“Should I be afraid?” Li Shanhe fought back .

The fight between Origin Realm martial artists was much more exciting than Qi Realm martial artists fighting . The sharp black iron swords of both fighters were extended to the length of 4 feet by their qi . It was even stronger than the masked man who Li Fuchen fought against .

“Luckily I made it . ”

Li Fuchen arrived late leisurely .

During noon time, he was cultivating his Scarlet Mystic Flame Technique .

But who would have guessed his Scarlet Mystic Flame Technique was about to progress to the eleventh rank . Which was why he got delayed .
