Chapter 2663 - The Nanrong Clan



Chapter 2663: The Nanrong Clan

A year ago, Gu Ying had attended a gathering of renowned clans with Mu Ningxue, and had witnessed how malevolent Nanrong Ni was back then. She had been furious after hearing what had happened in Venice from the others.

As soon as Fanxue Mountain was in trouble, Nanrong Ni had shown up. She had even brought a powerful Mage of the Nanrong Clan here!

“Sister Gu, Nanrong Xu is a strong Super Mage. We are like cannon fodder in his eyes. Are we really going to the mountain?” Zhong Li asked softly.

“Of course we are going! If we can’t beat a Super Mage, we can still beat the others. We have to help Fanxue Mountain in some way. Even if Fanxue Mountain is done for, we can still keep our heads and chests up if we go back to our old Hunters’ life. The others won’t scold us for biting the hand that fed us. The Foehn Hunter Squad isn’t just a bunch of cowards, but a group of unyielding men!… Seriously, you men are so useless. Even a woman like me knows the right thing to do, while the rest of you are thinking of running away!” Gu Ying scolded them all.

The others were ashamed of themselves.

Most of them had wandered between many places, but after joining Fanxue Mountain, they had fought alongside the new establishment and grown together for a long time. They would be lying if they said they did not have any feelings for Fanxue Mountain.

“Screw it, let’s kill those bastards and protect Fanxue Mountain!”

“Sister Gu, the rest of our men are waiting at the Twin Mountains. Let’s regroup with them!” Zhong Li told her quickly.

“Let’s go, we must stick together!” Gu Ying ordered.

——

The Foehn Hunter Squad headed to the base of the Twin Mountains, where the headquarters of the patrol squads was located.

Before the Foehn Hunter Squad had even arrived, someone had already organized the squads. There were around a thousand Intermediate and Advanced Mages. Several Super Mages were organizing them into groups.

“I thought everyone had run away, but they are still here!” Zhong Li exclaimed when he saw the crowd.

The members of the Foehn Hunter Squad were relieved, too. Luckily, they had not run away when they had the chance, or else they would not be able to handle the shame!

“If Fanxue Mountain is gone, where else can we find a place to call home?” exclaimed a middle-aged man was leading the group.

Most people could relate to his words.

It was extremely difficult to find a safe place for their families at the current time. Fanxue Mountain was the safest place in North City. There had not been a single incident where a resident was killed by the sea monsters.

Many Mages who had joined Fanxue Mountain had already brought their families to Fanxue City. It was their new home!

They had always thought the vicious sea monsters were the only threat that would endanger the city, but the real threat had turned out to be their own kind. Heaven knew what would happen to the city once those shameless and despicable officials were in charge!

They would not allow those scum to destroy Fanxue Mountain!

“Come with me! We can go around Magic Moth Mountain to the west of Fanxue Villa to reinforce our lord and her people!” the middle-aged man proclaimed.

The people protecting the city and Fanxue Mountain were no longer disorganized, having proper management. Gu Ying and her men soon saw more squads like theirs joining the group as the resistance!

The harbor of Fanxue City…

Nanrong Ni, dressed in a beautiful cheongsam, was walking along briskly, a faint grin on her face.

She was barely withholding the joy in her heart. After all, Fanxue Mountain was on the brink of destruction, meaning that Mu Ningxue was very close to her fall!

“I’ve waited so long for this day. Who do they think Zhao Jing is? That Mo Fan thought he was the infamous troublemaker and mad hound in the country, but he has no idea that Zhao Jing’s reputation easily exceeds his. Not only does no one dare to pick a fight with him in China, reputable Mages across the world try their best to avoid him, too!” Nanrong Ni told the members of her clan.

The news about Zhao Jing’s crusade against Fanxue Mountain had spread very quickly. The Nanrong Clan had taken over some of the districts in Feiniao Headquarters City, so it immediately gathered its people when it heard Lin Kang was going after Fanxue Mountain.

The Nanrong Clan’s main power was in the south of China, but most cities there had been destroyed. Only the Headquarters Cities were left.

Feiniao Headquarters City was currently the Nanrong Clan’s focus, but Fanxue Mountain had long taken root in Feiniao Headquarters City. Nanrong Ni was fine when she was not in the same city as Mu Ningxue, but after moving to Feiniao Headquarters City, she was extremely annoyed after she kept seeing Mu Ningxue’s unmatched status and reputation.

Mu Ningxue was like a shining jewel in Feiniao Headquarters City. The authorities here discussed her at every opportunity. On the other hand, no one seemed to care who Nanrong Ni was. They only respected her because of her position.

“She’s a bright moon in the sky, while you are just a firefly in the bushes. How can you even compare yourself to her?”

Nanrong Ni would never forget those words. An elder of the Mu Clan had told her those words on the first day she went to the Mu Clan.

Because of them, Nanrong Ni had insisted on becoming better than Mu Ningxue.

However, until now, the difference between her and Mu Ningxue had remained the same as the contrast between the moon and a firefly!

“Mu Ningxue isn’t the only woman in this world!” Nanrong Ni scoffed.

“Sister, you are overestimating Fanxue Mountain. Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue used to have Chairman Shao Zheng’s support in the past, so no one dared to touch them, but it’s different now. Shao Zheng has been sent to the barren west. All we needed is a valid reason to go after them!” Nanrong Xu grinned.

The Nanrong Clan had a lot of ties with the government and many Councilmen. They did not want to be scolded and despised by the whole country for taking out Fanxue Mountain without a valid reason, as it might ruin the reputation their clan had built up over many years.

They now had the madman Zhao Jing leading at the front and Lin Kang pulling the strings behind the scenes. The Nanrong Clan was eager to see Fanxue Mountain’s fall, but they were not willing to be the culprit!

They just had to follow Zhao Jing and Lin Kang and get a share of the profits in the end.

As for the resistance from the people of Fanxue Mountain, Nanrong Xu had not thought much about it. He alone could take care of Fanxue Mountain’s shrimp soldiers and crab generals, not to mention they had Zhao Jing and Lin Kang, two extremely strong Mages on their side, too.

He wondered why Fanxue Mountain had dared to call itself a renowned clan.

A real renowned clan like the Nanrong Clan had been around for a long time, allowing them to pass on their resources and giving their people an unmatchable power!

It was time to show these arrogant people the true power of a renowned clan!
