Zi Cheng immediately realized they were teaming up to embarrass Jier.
It made her anxious.
Every single god successor was a powerhouse in his own right.
She really didn’t want to offend one of them.
She was about to speak to alleviate the tension, unfortunately Jier wasn ’t the type to be patient.

“Haven’t had enough? Want try again?” Jier’s voice was full of provocation and malice.

“You-!” Jasmine was practically hyperventilating; her chest heaved up and down, but unfortunately the men were not in the mood to appreciate the show.
She never expected Jier would have the audacity to threaten her in front of so many people.
However, after the humiliation she suffered under his hands before,[notes] she knew how crazy he could get.

She wouldn’t put it past him to make her perform in front of so many people.

“Stop, Jasmine, Yifu.
The situation is already confusing enough as it is.
We shouldn’t fight amongst ourselves.” Zi Cheng grabbed a girl in each hand.
She made up her mind to keep an eye on them so they’d stay out of trouble.

The girls were pulled away before either Elena or Gerasi could intercede.

After talking some more to the outgoing guy from the other group, Luis understood what was happening with the tomb.

“Oh look.
The Yiduo clan are here.
They even brought one of their elders.
Our odds of getting an artifact just got slimmer.”

“Ha.
You were shooting for an artifact? I would have been happy with just a spell or a fruit.”

“There are so many people here already but it looks like more are still showing up.”

“I wonder what the Inferno guys are thinking.
They still haven ’t opened the tomb.
The longer they wait the more people are going to show up.
It’s going to be a madhouse then.”

“Yeah, why haven’t they opened the tomb yet?”

Other people were also gossiping.
In their hearts, they were worried.
Big shots kept arriving.
The longer they waited the smaller the pot was going to be.

As everyone was talking, a high ranking elder from the Yiduo clan walked forward.
He was a middle aged man clad entirely in a black magic robe.
The air around him was filled with powerful magic.

There were several people around him.
Some were obviously magicians with staves and wands in hand, while others were sword users with their long swords.
All of them exuded a powerful air.

The group of about thirty walked into the crowd.
They were an influential clan in Souya, so although there weren’t many of them, none of the adventurers dared underestimate them.The clan was protected by a magical swordsman and not many in Souya dared oppose them.

“Big brother, look over there! Aren’t those the guys who blocked us so we couldn’t escape from the Inferno company?” This came from a dainty looking girl in blue with a staff one hand.

“It is them! Brother Yabo, we can’t let them get away! If we don’t kill them, I’ll never resolve this suffocation in my chest!” Another girl glared at Feng Wu.
Her big eyes were full of resentment.
Indeed if looks could kill, Feng Wu and the others would have died half a dozen times already.

“Anji, Banji, don’t worry.
We’ll definitely kill those guys.” Yabo glanced with a sinister eye towards Ming Xi’s group.
Then he walked to their group elder.

Their elder was the seventh of twelve elders in the Yiduo family.
He had been leading a small group in training when they ran into several juniors in the clan.
He never expected to encounter a god’s tomb on the trip.
He was incredibly resentful of the Inferno company for stealing the key from them.
Regarding the small adventurer group that made it happen, there was no way he was going to let them get away.

Dealing with the Inferno group required discussion with the other elders in the clan, but dealing with a group of young adventurers did not.
He wasn’t pressured in the least, so when Yabo pointed out they were nearby, he decided he would settle the matter himself.
The people of the Yiduo clan were not nobodies anyone could just bully!

The kids were sensitive and felt the venomous stares.
They turned around and found the Yiduo clan staring at them.

“Aren’t those the guys who tried to drag us down with them yesterday?” Ai Lin asked.

Luis agreed.
“Yeah, they are.
I heard someone mention they’re people from the Yiduo clan.”

“Well apparently they want to kill us.” Tian Ya said.

“Everyone be careful once we enter the tomb.
I suspect they will try something once we’re all inside.” Ming Xi frowned.
He didn’t expect the earlier encounter to cause so much trouble.

“Definitely.” Wind and Rain both agreed.

Yabo wanted the Seventh Elder to kill the group then and there, but the elder refrained.
He didn’t want any witnesses around when he killed them.
They were students from Xingguang Holy Academy, and though it was only a school, it had a lot of influence.
Everyone knew how good the relationship between the school and Star Marshall Hall was.
Not to mention the special identities of the school’s principal and the lord of the hall.
They were akin to gods.
The Seventh Elder did not want to provoke the school.

But just because he didn’t want to provoke the school didn’t mean he was willing to let the group go.
The clan needed to get revenge for the stolen key.
The best course was to hide their actions and set a trap inside the tomb.
This way, when the time came, the school wouldn’t know it was the Yiduo clan.

It was a good idea, but would it really go so smoothly?

“Why do they want to kill us?” Feng Wu didn’t know them so she didn’t understand why the group was emitting such a strong killing intent.
