Chapter 70 The Force Clan
In the Earl's Mansion in Tiandou City.
Tang Yuehua was sitting in the hall, her delicate and beautiful face showing no trace of panic.
Outside the Earl's Mansion, the rebels were fighting with the remaining defenders of Tiandou City, and it was estimated that the outcome would come soon. Now, except for the imperial palace, other places in Tiandou City had basically been occupied, and many nobles' mansions had also been surrounded by the rebels.
Several city gates were also captured.
It was estimated that it would not be long before the rebels arrived at the Earl's Mansion where she was.
Meng Yuan walked in quickly.
"Miss Yuehua, you should leave the Earl's Mansion as soon as possible. It's not safe here."
In the past, Di Hong did not often live in the Earl's Mansion, and this time he only stayed there for a month, so there were no guards in the Earl's Mansion at all, and Di Hong did not think of arranging guards. After all, his strength was there, and no one would be so blind as to come here to cause trouble.
But now it’s different. The rebels have almost occupied Tiandou City, and Di Hong is not in the city.
There are only Tang Yuehua and Meng Yuan in the Earl's Mansion. They are not capable of fighting at all. Even if they all die, they cannot protect Tang Yuehua. Besides, there are spies planted by Xue Yu in the Earl's Mansion. As long as the rebels come, they will definitely open the door.
Just as Tang Yuehua was thinking about how to respond, a maid came into the living room.
"Miss Yuehua, there are a few people outside who claim to be from the Power Clan and they are looking for you, Miss Yuehua."
"The Power Clan." Tang Yuehua's eyes lit up.
"Yeah, how could I forget about the four clans."
She almost forgot that the Li Clan, one of the four single-attribute clans affiliated with the Haotian Sect, was in Tiandou City. It was also the only one of the four clans in Tiandou City. The other three were outside Tiandou City, not far from the Haotian Sect.
Since the Li clan makes their living in Tiandou City, it is appropriate to place the clan in the city.
As long as a powerful clan is here, there is nothing to worry about.
The patriarch of the Power Clan, Titan, also broke through not long ago and became a Soul Douluo-level powerhouse. He also became the first Soul Douluo-level soul master among the four odd clans.
Walking out of the hall, the maid came over with several muscular men. Leading them was a young man with short hair, broad shoulders and back, and muscles all over his body, looking quite tough.
As soon as Tang Yuehua came out, he immediately saluted with his fists clasped.
"Taino from the Power Clan, nice to meet Miss Yuehua."
Several others followed suit and saluted.
Yuehua returned a small salute, then asked, "Brother Tainuo, why are you here?"
"Did Uncle Titan send you here?"
Taino nodded, his voice deep and powerful.
"That's right. There was a rebellion in the city. My father was afraid that you would be affected, so he sent me with twenty disciples to protect Miss Yuehua and go to the Li Clan."
"Please come with me."
Tang Yuehua did not refuse and followed Tainuo out of the Earl's Mansion. As soon as she walked out of the Earl's Mansion, she saw the streets in chaos, with rebellious soldiers everywhere and a lot of corpses seen from time to time.
The bodies included those of civilians and soldiers.
With Tainuo and the others protecting them, Tang Yuehua and the others were fine and arrived at the Li clan's sect headquarters smoothly. Their place was not affected at all.
Xue Yu would not attack these sects or academies. If he attacked these places, he would lose more than he gained. Most of these clan forces remained neutral. Of course, there were also some small forces. After the rebels attacked Tiandou City, some not-so-large forces also joined in.
In their opinion, since Tiandou City had been taken, Xue Yu's success was basically a foregone conclusion. Following him, they might even be able to gain the merit of following the dragon, thus making the sect even stronger. However, the strength of these people was not that strong, and the stronger ones were only at the Soul King and Soul Emperor level, which could only be icing on the cake.
Inside Xue Yu's mansion.
He was listening to his men's report.
He frowned when he learned that the palace had not yet been taken.
"What's going on? Why hasn't the palace been taken down yet?"
One of his men shook his head: "The imperial palace guards have been fighting desperately, and some of the Tiandou City's defenders and spirit masters have also retreated to the palace to strengthen the palace's guards."
"Waste!" Xue Yu was very angry. The guards of the imperial palace were only ten thousand people, and the strongest soul master was only a Soul Saint. Most of the soul masters of the royal soul master corps had been transferred away by Xue Ting, and the remaining ones were not a concern.
Besides, some have already surrendered to him.
The defense of the palace is still very high, and it is difficult to cause large-scale damage. He also doesn't want to destroy the palace. After all, he will still live there in the future.
Since it cannot be destroyed, he will just slowly polish it down. Anyway, Tiandou City is basically under his control.
"How about other places?"
Another subordinate reported: "We have basically taken over Tiandou City. There are only a few places with sporadic resistance. It is estimated that there are still two to three thousand people, and there are not many soul masters. We can completely wipe them out in at most one hour."
"Yeah." Xue Yu nodded with satisfaction. The sky outside was gradually getting dark. Tiandou City was basically under his control. Next, he should consider other things.
The families of the Royal Knights and those Royal Guards were all in his control. Xue Ye did not dare to attack Tiandou City. The army and soul masters in his hands were useless.
But the only problem now is that the emperor is outside, and if he cannot control the emperor, it will be useless even if he occupies Tiandou City.
"Is there any news coming back from Yin Xuan?"
When the rebellion started, he sent Yin Xuan to keep an eye on the royal hunting grounds. It has been a whole day and no news has come back.
"Not yet." The subordinate shook his head.
"Keep an eye on the Royal Hunting Grounds. Also, is there any movement at the Royal Academy?"
The Royal Academy is the place where the empire trains soul masters, so Xue Yu is naturally worried that they will move. Although the Royal Academy is not in Tiandou City, the threat is still not small.
"No, because of the hunting competition, the Royal Academy is on holiday today. Some of the students there are in Tiandou City, some are in the hunting grounds. The teachers are also in Tiandou City, some are in the hunting grounds, and some are left in the academy."
Xue Yu snorted and laughed. Now he had the upper hand. All he needed was news about the hunting ground and the return of the 30,000 guards.
For him, the most important thing at the moment is to know the emperor's condition. Xue Tang is in very poor health and cannot withstand the blow. The emperor is now in the hunting ground, and he cannot get first-hand information. Whether Xue Tang is dead or alive, or nothing has happened, he has to know so that he can take action.
The fighting in Tiandou City is still going on. Civilians are hiding in their homes and trembling, fearing that the rebels will break into their homes and rob them.
Within the power clan.
After Tang Yuehua arrived, the leader of the Power Clan, Titan, came out to greet her. As a subsidiary clan of the Haotian Sect, the Power Clan was loyal to the Haotian Sect. Titan was not young either, he was only slightly younger than Tang Wei, the current leader of the Haotian Sect.
In the hall.
Titan sat in the main seat. His figure was much stronger and taller than his son Taino. This had something to do with his martial spirit, the powerful gorilla, and the fact that they were pure power-type soul masters.
His eyes were deep and his expression was intimidating without him being angry. Even Tang Yuehua was very respectful to him.
