My Descendants Are My Power

Everyone was puzzled.

Nathan's expression turned playful. "Everyone has overlooked the first half of the agreement, because 'no taxes', 'no kowtowing in the grand hall', and 'the title of Duke' are already greedy enough. But the most overlooked condition is the most important one."

"Think about it, everyone. Psychics above Competent Force need to report before entering Azure Cloud. At least, the empire can't send people here openly. What does this mean?"

Nathan let out a long breath. "Guess what, every year in the Emerald Empire, there are many rebellious people who are hunted down by the righteous path, by the grand hall, and by the major forces of the Emerald Empire."

"But once they enter Cloudview County, the Emerald Empire can't send anyone to capture them!"

"This..."

The faces of the many experts in Cloudview County gradually lit up with joy. Kenneth even slapped his thigh. "From now on, anyone who has committed a crime will come to Cloudview County. At least in Cloudview County, they still have a glimmer of hope. They don't have to flee anymore and can choose a place to cultivate their psychic powers!"

"They will be our source of soldiers."

Nathan's expression turned grim. "At the same time, it will also embolden some people in the Emerald Empire. As long as our Blackwood clan remains in Cloudview County for a day, if anyone in the Emerald Empire has a grudge against others, they wouldn't dare to act recklessly before, because of the influence of the major forces and the empire."

"But now they dare! Our strength will grow. Given enough time, we will be able to resist several times the number of Druids from half a month ago!"

Everyone gasped.

They didn't expect that Nathan, this seemingly foolish guy, had already paved the way a year ago!

Nathan didn't even know if the major forces would come back this time, and he didn't even know if he could survive, but he had thought so far ahead!

Those fugitives, which one of them didn't have some skills?

And after they came to Cloudview County, they would all serve the Blackwood clan and do everything in their power to protect the Blackwood people. Only with the Blackwood people around would the agreement between the Blackwood clan and the ancient god be effective.

Perhaps there were already experts at the Basic Mastery stage or even above on their way to Cloudview County.

Ethan silently looked at the traits on Nathan.

He didn't know when, but a trait had already appeared on him.

[Trait: Wise Fool]

...

"From now on, Cloudview County will be the city of sin."

Nathan suddenly looked apologetically at the leaders of the various forces and said with a wry smile, "I'm sorry, everyone. I didn't expect you to come back and guard Cloudview County with me."

"I also didn't expect that I would be able to defend Cloudview County this time. I thought I would definitely die, but I was paving the way for the future of my Blackwood clan. I didn't expect this day to come."

Hearing this.

Kenneth smiled helplessly. "This is a good thing. These Psychics who enter Azure Cloud will also fight for this 'pure land'. However, besides guarding Azure Cloud, we also need to talk to our disciples and clansmen. There will be many experts with unknown origins and pasts coming to Cloudview County in the future.

It's better for them to keep a low profile when they are out and about, so as not to offend anyone they shouldn't."

"Understood!"

Everyone nodded repeatedly. Even if they didn't say it, they knew what to do. After all, a long time ago... they had encountered these freaks from the Blackwood clan.

Jason of the Azure Cloud Pavilion's eyes lit up. "Everyone, in order to make these experts fight for Azure Cloud, why don't we add fuel to the fire? Let's say that we have obtained secret treasures from the Druids, or that someone has achieved enlightenment overnight among the Druids. In this way, these daring Psychics will dare to challenge the Druids and fight alongside us."

Immortal Master's face was calm. "We can say that the Druids have harmed the people of Cloudview County. This time, we can use the name of the legendary Oracle Chamber and manipulate 'fortune' a little."

A sinister voice rasped, coming from Patriarch Ralph of the Ghost Eye Demonic Gate. "Have you heard of the Human Refinement Pill? Using humans as cauldrons? This method can be spread throughout Azure Cloud..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the many patriarchs of Cloudview County glared at him.

If such a method were to spread, in a thousand or ten thousand years, Cloudview County would truly become a land of evil, and even they, the patriarchs, might be captured and refined.

...

The old foxes in the Sky Hall were deep in discussion.

Ethan was truly an eye-opener. In the eyes of other Psychics, they were all high and mighty, extremely dignified, and anyone who saw them would call them "exalted ones." Even before this, when the Blackwood people met them, they had nothing but praise for them.

But only when they were on the same boat did they realize that none of them were really decent people. It was like two strangers meeting for the first time. Everyone was a little reserved, and the other party seemed gentle and refined.

But after they became friends, they would have to get up in the middle of the night and complain, "What a bunch of lunatics."

"Perhaps there is no such thing as good and evil in this world, only whether our values are compatible and our aspirations are aligned."

Ethan shook his head and smiled.

At least when the Druids came, the grand hall, which ruled over the entire Emerald Empire, did not come to the aid of Cloudview County. Instead, it was these seemingly bad guys who resolutely guarded this land alongside the Blackwood clan. Even on the battlefield, the demon cultivators brought by Daniel charged at the forefront.

Two days passed quickly.

Ethan casually switched between his Blackwood descendants and saw friends from all over the Emerald Empire who had come to help Cloudview County. These were truly righteous people. Most of them wore masks... He didn't know who taught them, but they all had a steelyard embroidered on their chests, and they would tell everyone they met that they were members of the Oracle Chamber.

They even had tokens.

[Your descendant, Jessica, colluded with the old tree and used the method of manipulating fate to create a new force in Border town - the Oracle Chamber (fake)]

[Righteous people from all over the Emerald Empire have joined the Oracle Chamber (fake) to fight for Cloudview County]

[Current number of members: 2185]

"..."

Looking at the event log, Ethan fell silent for a moment. He had found the culprit. As expected, it was one of his own.

At this moment, above the Primordial Blood Tree, the Blackwood people stood on their swords.

It was a valley. The valley was filled with the corpses of Druids. Blood was flowing. The Primordial Blood Tree had transformed into a ten-meter-tall tree. Its roots even floated on the blood, like water pipes, sucking the stinking blood.

[The Primordial Blood Tree asks you if you are willing to expend the vast amount of blood essence it has stored to peer into a corner of the future for your descendants?]

"Yes."

Ethan nodded slightly.

This time, the Blackwood clansmen in Border town were gathered. They all had solemn expressions. After so many years, they would not come to the Primordial Blood Tree for a prediction unless they were facing a crisis that they could not resolve.

They had already peered into many corners of the future, and it was not a good thing. Many times, they would see the deaths of their clansmen, their own deaths, or a tragic future, and all of that was very difficult to change. After experiencing it time and time again, no one would doubt the old tree's abilities.

"Old tree, the Emerald Empire has abandoned us, and the Druids will not let us go either."

Nathan's expression was calm. "My Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation aptitude has been exposed, and Amelia's aptitude has also been discovered by others. The Druids are probably impatient. I have no way to resolve this. The crisis is approaching. They will send experts to kill us.

This is what I can sense."

Hearing Nathan's words, a human face appeared on the trunk of the Primordial Blood Tree!

The blood energy in the entire valley surged like fog. The Primordial Blood Tree's aged face looked around at all the Blackwood people. Its branches swayed, and everyone could feel its joy.

"I have seen it."

"I have heard it!"

The Primordial Blood Tree's excited voice echoed throughout the valley. "I said it long ago. Cloudview County will be a forbidden land, the forbidden land of the Blackwood clan!"

"Tonight, under the crimson moon, crimson snow will fall upon the Blackwood clan."

"Everyone in Cloudview County will see that this is the Blackwood clan's Cloudview County! All the nobles of the Emerald Empire will regret betraying Cloudview County!"
