1171: Murong Clan’s Comeback

Murong Clan’s Comeback

When Wu Lan and others saw Yun Jian out of the blue, she and the elders behind her nervously kneeled before Yun Jian in unison. The reason was simple.2

Wizard Lord Wu was brilliant back then. What she could do and had done won the deference of Wu Lan and the elders behind her even today. 

Even when it was no longer Wizard Lord Wu's peak era now, Wu Lan was still astounded when she saw Yun Jian, a face that was an exact replica of Wizard Lord Wu's.

Wu Qing was dumbstruck when she saw her aunt getting on her knees before the girl whom Lan Su had brought back.

Every clan member who was born in Wu Clan was ground with one belief—Wu Clan would prosper with Wizard Lord Wu! One day, the fallen Wizard Lord Wu would return and lead her clan members in ascending Yulong Mainland's peak again.

That was because Wizard Lord Wu had once promised—"I shall return a thousand years later!".

A thousand years later, Wizard Lord Wu would definitely be returning!

Wu Qing was taught the concept ever since she was a child. The reason for what she said just now was only because she had never seen Wizard Lord Wu personally and thought that the latter was only a legend.

In spite of it, when she saw her aunt who was usually superior to others and whom she had admired since a child get on her knees for this gorgeous girl next to Lan Su—and call her Wizard Lord Wu, she was thoroughly baffled.

"Wizard L-Lord Wu… Aunty, what are you saying? She—she's… Wizard Lord Wu?" No matter how reluctant Wu Qing was, she had still shifted her gaze to Yun Jian and asked Wu Lan in surprise.

It was not just Wu Qing. The group of teenagers behind her were flummoxed as well.

"Qing-er, do not be rude! If you point at Wizard Lord Wu again, you'll be expelled from Wu Clan!"

Wu Lan scrambled up and yanked Wu Qing's hand when she saw her niece pointing a finger at Yun Jian, pulling the girl to kneel down before Yun Jian together.

Seeing that their clan leader had gotten on her knees before Yun Jian deferentially, the juniors of Wu Clan kneeled down as well in fright. 

This was the prestige of Wizard Lord Wu!

The juniors were naïve and might not know but Wu Lan had been a clan leader for over a thousand years. She and the elders behind her could clearly recall Wizard Lord Wu's past accomplishments.

The saying about Wu Clan prospering with Wizard Lord Wu being present and Wu Clan crumbling with Wizard Lord Wu falling was proven right as well.

Therefore, Wu Lan and the elders were extremely reverent toward Wizard Lord Wu.

Yun Jian stood in front of them and watch them kneel before her with a squint.

The sight made Lan Su who had been standing beside Yun Jian come before her and put her hands lightly against her chest to take a deep bow at Yun Jian. She then exclaimed in an incredibly thrilled tone, "Wizard Wu Lord has kept her promise a millennium ago! She's returned to Wu Clan today after a thousand years!"

"Wizard Lord Wu! Wizard Lord Wu! Wizard Lord Wu!"

Wu Clan's clan leader, Wu Lan, led the cheer and the group of clan members gradually joined in. Their shouts were thunderous.

As Yun Jian took in the scene before her, it felt familiar, like a feeling of déjà vu.

It was during then a woman who was dressed like a servant dashed in from the side in a stumble, falling to the floor limply and vomiting blood. Before she passed out, she cried, "Murong Clan is here again… The courtyard… They're attacking our people… Clan leader, help…"
