The Direct Line Clan Leader yelled, "Are you done wasting our time? What can you do with your group alone? Do you think you can be enemies of the whole Independent State?!"
The Jiang clan exchanged looks with the people from the Collateral Branch and went to attack.
However, Elder Xue's expression shifted. "Don't act rashly! There are explosives!"
Everyone was shocked.
"The Martial Arts Union… buried explosives everywhere beforehand! And they have heavy weapons!" Elder Xue explained hastily.
"Are you telling the truth?" a higher-up from the collateral ancient clans questioned.
"Nonsense—would I joke about this kind of matter?!" Elder Xue looked anxious. "They made preparations ahead of time!"
Before the collateral ancient clans could respond, Si Xia whistled.
Instantly, dozens of elite members of the Martial Arts Union appeared around them with heavy weapons in hand.
"You're mad!" Jiang Ying screamed.
