Battle Through the Heavens (Vol.1)

Chapter 95: The Circumstances of the Jia Lie Clan

As the next few days slowly passed by, the amount of healing medicine that the Jia Lie Clan sold in their marketplace at Wu Tan City began to decrease. On the last day, when the last bottle of healing medicine was finally sold, the Jia Lie Clan members responsible for selling the medicine had little choice but to embarrassingly smile at the mercenaries jostling outside. "I'm very sorry. Due to a shortage of stock, our stall will be temporarily closed."

The mercenaries who were squeezing for a better spot outside the stall became silent upon hearing those words. After glaring furiously at the stall workers for a long time, they began to start scolding angrily.

As the crowd dispersed, some of the less courteous customers verbally abused the medicine sellers.

The news that the Jia Lie clan had ceased the sales of healing medicine spread throughout the entire Wu Tan City in less than an hour. The first reaction of everyone was shock followed by some who gloated at their misfortune, some who felt regretful, and some who sighed...

Without the support of the healing medicine, the Jia Lie Clan, in the fight against the Xiao Clan, was totally defeated. Following their miserable defeat, the Jia Lie Clan was severely weakened and their influence within Wu Tan City was unlikely to ever recover to the high influential level that they had enjoyed in the past.

The Xiao Clan's home, Meeting room.

"The Jia Lie Clan has lost the source of their healing medicine?" Hearing the news that his subordinate had brought him, Xiao Zhan was momentarily stunned before abruptly standing up. The happiness on his face was difficult to hide.

In his excitement, he exchanged glances with the three elders, only to find that their faces were also filled with uncontrolled happiness. Xiao Zhan agitatedly took two steps in the hall. A while later, he finally suppressed his happiness and asked the messenger with a smile, "What about Liu Xi, their Alchemist?"

"I have no idea. Ever since that day when Jia Lie Ao and young master Xiao Yan fought, he was never seen again."

Hearing this, Xiao Zhan and the three elders were surprised. They shifted their gaze stealthily at Xiao Yan, who was sitting in one corner.

"Why are you looking at me? This has nothing to do with me." Seeing the four pairs of eyes looking at him, Xiao Yan rolled his eyes and innocently said.

Xiao Zhan helplessly shook his head. In any case, he did not believe Xiao Yan's denial. Nothing to do with him? Then why was it that Liu Xi would vanish after having a conflict with him?

"That's right. Clan leader, a member of the Jia Lie Clan inner circle accidentally leaked out that the Jia Lie Clan's second elder, Jia Lie Nu, was killed by a black cloaked man when he was transporting medicinal ingredients." After a brief hesitation, the messenger finally said in a low voice.

Xiao Zhan's strolling legs suddenly froze. He drew his eyelids and nodded before waving his hand to dismiss the messenger. He stared intently at Xiao Yan and said with a wide smile, "Yan Er, I don't think that there is anyone in the entire Wu Tan City who has the ability to kill the three star Dou Grandmaster Jia Lie Nu other than your teacher."

Xiao Yan rubbed his nose and sighed. He helplessly nodded his head. "Jia Lie Nu is indeed dead."

Hearing the admission from Xiao Yan, Xiao Zhan also shook his head and sighed. The Jia Lie Clan, which had fought for decades with the Xiao Clan, had actually fell into a decline because of a single young man. This feeling... Xiao Zhan bitterly smiled and said, "I know that the reason for the esteemed elder to extend his help is because of you. Still, if there is time, please convey our Xiao Clan's thanks. We owe him so much."
