Chapter 835: Is Your Shenlian Clan So Impoverished?
The two factions quickly plunged into the heart of battle, leaving their adversaries in shock. To their disbelief, the cloaked figures confronting them wielded a power that far exceeded their own.
As they caught sight of Shenlian Yinzhu’s finely chiseled jawline and the formidable physiques of his companions, the realization struck them: these individuals appeared strikingly young.
Among them, Xiao Mei and Xiao Nian, who looked petite and delicate, packed a punch comparable to the strongest warriors. The realization that they might not be contending against mere mortals sent waves of frustration coursing through them, almost prompting them to spit blood in despair.
What kind of humans possessed such extraordinary strength at such tender ages? They had never encountered beings like this in the lower realms. Due to their inability to perceive the genuine presence of Xiao Li and the others beneath Xiao Yun’s illusion, they mistakenly identified them as humans.
"You wretched beings from the lowly world! Surely you’re unaware of our identities! To provoke us invites ruin upon your family and clan! With just one of us, we could annihilate your entire lineage!" their tormentors warned darkly, observing the pathetic state in which Xiao Li’s group had brought their foes.
Why did these powerful cultivators hastily assume that Shenlian Yingyue and her companions hailed from the lower realms? It was the robes and cloaks they adorned. Individuals from the Upper Worlds would never don such clothing.
Their robes were crafted from the finest materials, lavishly embroidered with clan symbols to showcase their prestige, status, and wealth. A mere glance was enough to discern the clan heritage of those wearing them.
Take the members of the Shenlian Clan, for instance. While they weren’t the elite disciples and did not entirely carry the clan’s bloodline, they still wore opulent Hanfu.
Their lavender robes held protective enchantments and magical properties, featuring intricate designs of a white snake coiling around a golden mandala lotus. This was symbolic of their sacred clan. Beneath this emblem, the name ’Shenlian’ was meticulously carved.
