CHAPTER 1561 PLAYED OUT BY THE FANG CLAN

They didn't have a choice at all.

Their clans were in ruins and they couldn't find a single person, and they didn't even know what happened.

And even if they found anybody, what else could they do?

If even the Senior Elders of their clans were nowhere to be found, it meant that their attackers were very powerful, so powerful that the other reclusive clans couldn't hold up against their attacks at all.

"We will do the same!" the other elders said through gritted teeth. "This is a promise from the elders of reclusive clans, so we will keep our promises!"

If their clans were gone, then there was no point in having the manual.

The manual was an opportunity to help their own clans advance and soar to greater heights, but if they couldn't even keep their clans going, then there was nothing to advance

"As long as we can continue to keep our clans, then we will give you the secret texts of our clans."

This was a deal.

Otherwise, there was no reason why Jiang Ning should risk his life forthem.

They didn't even know who their opponent was and where to find them. And even if they tracked their opponents down, the few of them couldn't possibly fight them since all the highly skilled fighters of their own clans had perished as well.

The only one who could save them was Jiang Ning and Donghai!

Jiang Ning looked at all of them and nodded.

"Remember that carefully, this is a business transaction."

He didn't say anymore. He wasn't going to be some good guy for nothing. These were the fellows who made trouble for him not too long ago too.

He wasn't doing anything if there wasn't anything for him in it.

Jiang Ning wanted those secret texts, since things would definitely move faster once Lu Jing's side started studying them.

"We shouldn't delay any further. Let's set off now!" said Jiang Ning.

"Yes, Big Boss!" replied Brother Gou immediately as he ran off to get the rest.

In no time, everyone had arrived.

Jiang Ning never dilly dallied about things. Since he said he was going to take action, he would take action immediately.

This was also a special situation, since all the reclusive clans had been attacked.

This was no small matter, since the person who launched this attack was definitely pretty powerful.

"I want to go too!" said Sima Quan through clenched teeth and ran after them.

Even though the Sima clan had forsaken him, he hadn't forsaken his own home.

All of them rushed to Mount Zhongnan as quickly as they could.

Mount Zhongnan was a lot colder than the city right now. Once they went past the foot of the mountain, they could feel the temperature continue to drop.

"The various reclusive sects are all hidden deep in the mountainous forest. We chose to hide ourselves in the mountain back then because the eight families had received a secret text each at the same time," Sima Quan began to explain.

"We've known about the manual for a long time, and the pioneers of our clans have been searching for it for a long time. They realized that trying to search for it randomly would cause a lot of social unrest, so the clans agreed that they would remain within Mount Zhongnan until the manual pages appeared, and nobody was to search for the pages privately."

Given the martial arts prowess of the eight reclusive clans, if they wanted to hunt these pages down by force, they would definitely upset the social order of the world.

That was something that their pioneers did not want to see.

So the eight reclusive clans made an agreement that had continued for several generations, and nobody was to break this agreement.

"But the Fang clan has been searching for the pages for the last twenty years. Didn't any of you know that?" Jiang Ning glanced at Sima Quan. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

"We only found out recently," said Sima Quan.

His expression looked a little nasty. The other seven reclusive clans had been played out by the Fang clan.

His heart suddenly trembled and he looked up at Jiang Ning as his lips moved. He couldn't help but wonder if the Fang clan was the one who went around to attack the other reclusive clans!

"Let's go to the Sima house first." Jiang Ning just gently shook his head and didn't say more.

Jiang Ning had already guessed as much. Or rather, there was no need to guess.

The other clans had been attacked, so once they looked into the Sima house, they would know for sure.
