Unrivaled Martial Emperor Chapter 477 -His Name Shakes the Great Chu Empire

Chapter 477 – His Name Shakes the Great Chu Empire

Time flew by, and soon half a month had passed.

The Qin Clan mansion, destroyed in that massive battle, now had a completely new look. What was once the glorious Qin Clan mansion had become the Chen Clan mansion.

All the Qin Clan members had left the mansion within three days, taking nothing with them.

During the Chen Clan’s takeover of the Qin Clan mansion and their businesses, the entire imperial city was completely reshuffled.

The Qin Clan was now history, and the other clans that had helped them, namely, the Zhu Clan, and the Lu Clan also faded into oblivion and became history.

Although Chen Fan didn’t wipe them out completely, he slaughtered their leaders. In a corrup environment like the imperial city, this made them vulnerable, and other clans quickly divided their assets.

Meanwhile, the Nangong Clan had also been on the decline.

Nangong Baxiong had publicly separated from the Nangong Clan. Afterward, he brought the Moon Bloodline members with him to the Chen Clan.

Now, the number of Core Formation realm experts the Nangong Clan had could be counted on one hand. Aside from Nangong Xuan—at the seventh level—the others were only at the first or second level.

As one of the four great clans, they had a lot of businesses in the imperial city that drew envy from the others.

In the past, the Nangong Clan thrived, and people dared not make any reckless moves despite desiring their assets. But now, the Nangong Clan had hit rock bottom. The Yang Clan and the Su Clan took the opportunity to strike, taking advantage of the situation to seize the Nangong Clan’s businesses.

Despite being furious at the situation, Nangong Xuan and the others were powerless to do a thing in the face of the Yang and Su Clans.

The Nangong Clan could have resisted the Yang and Su Clans in the past; now, who would they send to fight back?

Relying on the old and frail Nangong Xuan, a lone seventh-level Core Formation expert?

The Yang and Su Clans had taken more than half of the Nangong Clan’s businesses, and their strength had declined steeply.

Qingfeng Restaurant was the largest and most luxurious restaurant in the imperial city. Only those with a certain level of status and power could even step through its doors.

Even the waiters and waitresses here were all in the Qigong realm.

“Life is truly like a dream. The thriving Qin Clan actually fell into complete decline overnight and became history. It’s really saddening.”

“What’s there to be saddened about! In my opinion, the Qin Clan getting their just desserts is what happened.”

“Hehe, among the old four great clans, the Qin Clan and Nangong Clan have already fallen, replaced by the Chen Clan. I think the imperial city’s power structure will now be a three-way split between these clans.”

“Nangong Xuan, that old fool, must have been truly blind. If he had chosen to stand by the side and take his hands off this matter, Chen Fan would have spared his clan. Heck, he is only alive because Nangong Yue pleaded for him. The only reason the Nangong Clan is still standing is because of him. Otherwise, all their assets would have been divided up.”

“That’s right. Nangong Xuan doesn’t have much longer to live, either. His death would mark the destruction of the Nangong Clan. I wonder what the Nangong Clan members think when they see the Chen Clan become more prosperous by the day?”

“Although the Chen Clan is now flourishing, don’t forget Chen Fan and Duan Jingtian’s upcoming duel. Chen Fan still has a little over six months, but once Duan Jingtian defeats him, the rising Chen Clan would be immediately wiped out.”

“That’s not true. Nangong Baxiong has already joined the Chen Clan with the Moon Bloodline’s people, and I heard that Nangong Baxiong advanced to the sixth level three days ago. So, even if Chen Fan dies, the Chen Clan will stand strong in the imperial city with Nangong Baxiong around.”

“I heard the Qin Clan members have all entered the royal palace?”

“Mmm. After all, Qin Wudi’s wife is Lord Chu’s younger sister. With that connection, it’s understandable that the royal palace would accept the Qin Clan members. Besides, the Qin Clan still has a few Core Formation realm experts to bolster their strength.”

“Haaa, speaking of which, Nangong Qingshuang must be the most hurt by this. Her grand wedding became a joke. She would have become the matriarch of the Qin Clan in the future, but what happened in the end? She became the number one beauty of the imperial city wanted by none.”

“……”

Even though half a month had passed, the news of the battle at the Qin Clan showed no signs of dying down. Instead, the talks were becoming increasingly intense.

Everyone in the imperial city was talking about Chen Fan and that battle.

In a corner of the Qingfeng Restaurant’s second floor, several figures were drinking with lowered heads and hushed voices. Hearing the discussions of the nearby crowd, their expressions became ugly.

If anyone glanced their way, they would realize that one of them was actually Nangong Qingshuang.

Nangong Qingshuang’s complexion was ghastly pale and her eyes became dispirited as she heard the nearby conversations.

Her wedding was ruined, and she had indeed become the number one but unwanted beauty. How pitiful.

“I heard something else too. Do you remember the imperial city’s Zhao Clan?”

“Of course, I do. It was also a large clan, but they disappeared overnight like someone had wiped them out. No one knows the reason or the culprit, right?”

“Hehe, aren’t you a smart one? Then do you also know that Zhao Ru from that clan took part in hunting down Chen Zhengqing? That mysterious masked man who caused havoc in the Zhao Clan delivered Zhao Ru’s head to them…”

“What? You mean to say that mysterious masked man from back then is Chen Fan? So, the Zhao Clan’s annihilation was also…”

“……”

As the people from the imperial city dug deeper, more information about Chen Fan emerged. For example, it was discovered that the mysterious masked man who infiltrated the Zhao Clan was Chen Fan.

At the Qin Clan mansion—no, the Chen Clan mansion:

Chen Tianxiong and the others had moved their family properties to the imperial city.

The Qin Clan’s businesses were unlike the Watermoon City’s Zhao Clan and those other great clans. They were complicated and very tricky; their assets were incredibly massive.

The Yang and Su clans devoured the Nangong Clan’s territories and businesses, but they dared not lay a finger on the Qin Clan’s, as that was Chen Fan’s trophy.

Laying a finger on it would be equivalent to provoking Chen Fan. Who would dare to provoke him now?

Although the Qin Clan’s assets were massive, Nangong Baxiong and the others managed to take over and organize them efficiently.

The Qin Clan’s treasury had also come into the Chen Clan’s possession.

Chen Fan arrived at the treasury. Gazing at the treasures piled high, he couldn’t help but marvel at the Qin Clan’s accumulated wealth. It was incredibly deep and rich, truly befitting the once number-one great clan.

I wonder if there’s any treasure here that I can use? Duan Jingtian’s sentence is about to end. The day I clash with him is also close at hand. I need to raise my cultivation to the next level! Chen Fan thought, his eyes flickering.

Although Chen Fan’s name had spread far and wide, and everyone knew of him after the massacre at the Qin Clan, his upcoming clash with Duan Jingtian was looming, and he still wasn’t absolutely confident in his victory.

He had defeated the eighth-ranked Dongfang Yu in front of countless people half a month ago. However, as he had said then, Dongfang Yu might be ranked higher than Duan Jingtian, but his strength was inferior.
