Chapter 1531 - Change of Mind
For the next month, the annihilation of the Deng Clan was the hottest topic of discussion in Guangyuan City.
The pillar of the Deng Clan, Deng Hui, was nailed to the void right before everyone’s gaze.
Even now, people still feel their hearts stir when recalling that dramatic moment.
Deng Hui’s breakthrough into the fourth-level Immortal Platform realm should have brought the Deng Clan to new heights, making them the city’s rulers. Yet, as fate would have it, hopes were often rosy while reality was exceedingly harsh.
Before they could even savor the prospect of ruling the city, the Deng Clan suffered a crushing blow from the Rolling Thunder Mountain Manor—a series of events dictated by nothing more than timing and destiny.
Unlike an emerging force like the Rolling Thunder Mountain Manor, which was propped up solely on Gongsun Jing, the Deng Clan had thousands of years of heritage. It had deep roots in the city. Ironically, it was precisely this deep legacy that made their destruction even more astonishing to onlookers.
In their attempt to wipe out Rolling Thunder Mountain Manor, the Deng Clan assembled all their elite members and descended upon the manor, only to walk right into a trap. In a cruel twist of fate, not one of them escaped; all were slain. With that, the Deng Clan’s demise was virtually sealed.
In just a few days, the surviving members of the Deng Clan were found and executed on the spot by other Guangyuan City factions; Rolling Thunder Mountain Manor didn’t even need to get involved.
Truly, when a wall collapsed, everyone was eager to give it a shove!
This once-feared clan, renowned for centuries, was uprooted almost overnight: an outcome that left all of Guangyuan City reeling.
Finally, the crowd realized the truth. Those thousand-year clans or ten-thousand-year sects were nothing. For ordinary people, they were indeed a huge deterrence; in front of true experts, they were nothing.
The glory of the ancestors and their past glories were nothing but empty titles. The only thing eternal was strength.
