Chapter 1563: Chapter 1385: A Stormy Night in Jianghu

"Do you know what the Poisonous Insect Battle Conference is?" the Clan Chief asked Axian.

Axian shook his head. "I don’t know, Clan Chief, what is the Poisonous Insect Battle Conference?"

"In essence, it’s a battle between humans and insects. You’ll find out soon enough. You have always lived in the Central Plains where the culture is the most hypocritical, always talking about benevolence and righteousness. Here, you will understand that the true law of nature is survival of the fittest. Just wait and see."

Upon hearing about the battle between humans and insects, Xia Dabao had an ominous premonition. She quickly pulled Axian to her side and smiled at the Clan Chief, "Clan Chief, Axian hasn’t fully recovered his energy yet. I’m worried he might get tired, so let me hold him first."

The Clan Chief did not respond because he was watching the Clan Chiefs of the Moon Shadow Clan and the Moon Heart Tribe in the pavilions across from him.

The pavilions were located fairly close to each other, allowing the clan chiefs and elders to sit inside, dine on wine and dim sum, and observe.

However, the Moon Shadow Clan’s chief had somehow walked over to the Moon Heart Tribe’s chief.

In the Southern Zhao Kingdom, these three major clans all served the royal family, but were also at odds with each other. Hence, the gathering of the two clan chiefs from Moon Shadow Clan and Moon Heart Tribe meant they were surely up to something.

After the Moon Shadow Clan Chief came over, the Moon Heart Tribe Chief did not send him away but merely gave him a faint glance.

"Moon Shadow, I remember last time we met, you were criticizing our Moon Heart Tribe for being all powder and perfume, incapable of achieving great things. So, what, now you’ve decided to join in with the powder and perfume?" said the Moon Heart Tribe Chief.

"Heh, I’m not joining in with the powder and perfume. I simply noticed you were looking at me for quite some time. If I didn’t come over, maybe you would have come to me. Am I right?" rejoined the Moon Shadow Clan Chief.

The Moon Shadow Clan Chief was a man with an iron ring hanging from his nose, which gave him a rather sinister appearance.

The attire of the Moon Heart Tribe was more normal. Their clan’s uniform was red and black, only their hair wasn’t tied up but instead casually braided, giving them an ethereal appearance. The Moon Heart Tribe’s Clan Chief was only in her thirties, and since she hadn’t had children, she still appeared slim.

"Moon Shadow old man, let’s not beat around the bush in hypocrisy. You came to me because of that girl over there, right? Speak up, what are you thinking?" The Moon Heart Tribe Chief said, playing with her long nails in a rather seductive manner.

"Thoughts? Aren’t my thoughts the same as yours? They found that girl over twenty days ago. Our situation is worrisome. If we don’t act soon and the Chi Xia Clan succeeds in their cultivation of that monster, we will be at a disadvantage before the Witch King."

"We are both serving the Witch King. If the Chi Xia Clan succeeds in developing such a poisonous insect, it will serve the Southern Zhao Kingdom. You and I are both subjects of this kingdom. Why should we divide the credit?" the Moon Heart Tribe Chief said with a lazy smile.

Clearly taken aback, the Moon Shadow Clan Chief quickly recovered and smiled, "Rare to see the Moon Heart Tribe so profoundly understanding. In that case, pretend I never mentioned this."

As the Moon Shadow Clan Chief was about to leave, the Moon Heart Tribe Chief stopped him, "Wait a moment."

"..." The Moon Shadow Clan Chief turned back smiling, "What, changed your mind? No longer playing the wise and virtuous?"

"Moon Shadow, we can’t have a proper conversation like this," the Moon Heart Tribe Chief still speaking languidly, "Sit down, let’s talk this through properly."

"..."
