Eternal life begins with saving my clan

In the Soaring Cloud Region, the Spirit Comms had become part of daily life for the region's inhabitants.

In Clear Wind City, everything was going according to plan, and the Wu clan's popularity had soared. It was now no secret that they were in partnership with the Celestial Heavenly Store.

As for the City Lord and the three clans, no one cared about them. The allure brought by the Spirit Comms was indispensable.

Unknown to the public, the City Lord and the three clans had formed an alliance with the other City Lords and clans.

They were hatching a plan to take over the Celestial Heavenly Store in one clean swoop.

Previously, the other City Lords wanted to attack the Celestial Heavenly Store just as the City Lord of Clear Wind City had. However, when they saw how things turned out, they restrained themselves, instead scheming slowly and plotting something sinister.

Two weeks later, they began to act.

"What happened?" the Wu clan patriarch asked, frowning.

"Father, all our caravans were ambushed, and all our goods stolen," Wu Xia reported, her face filled with anger and indignation.

"What! How could this happen?" her father shouted, standing up. "Do you know who did this?"

"No..." she shook her head. The attackers came prepared; their assault was coordinated, leaving no room for mistakes. She barely escaped with her life.

With their cooperation with the Celestial Heavenly Store, their merchant group had grown larger, and their influence had spread throughout the region.

"Go back to your room; I'll handle it," her father commanded, planning to hold a meeting with the elders.

Three days later, the Wu merchant caravan was attacked once again, this time with everyone killed.

Now, the sudden attacks on the Wu merchant clan were known to everyone, and rumors began spreading throughout the region.

To combat the attackers, the Wu clan posted a mission in the Adventurer Guild, requesting five hundred adventurers.

With the strong adventurers and their powerful weapons, the Wu clan believed their enemies wouldn't dare to attack them.

But to their dismay, the enemies came prepared, killing everyone, including the adventurers.

When the news came out, it shocked everyone in the Soaring Cloud Region. What on earth was going on?

Why were they targeting the Wu clan?

With the continuous attacks on their caravans, the Wu clan grew terrified of sending out their merchants.

When everyone thought the attackers would stop, they changed targets, focusing instead on adventurer groups on missions.

For about a week, adventurers were too scared to go out. Their killers seemed hell-bent on destroying them.

Now, people knew these attacks were aimed at the Celestial Heavenly Store.

Quickly, the public turned to the Celestial Heavenly Store, waiting for their response.

Unfortunately, the store made no announcements and ignored the rumors spread by those lurking in the shadows.

On You Connect, the City Lord alliance was celebrating, congratulating each other on their successful plan while they prepared for the second stage of their scheme.

Buoyed by the success of the first stage, they gained more confidence as they prepared to launch a widespread attack simultaneously.

Unfortunately for them, their enemy was the Celestial Heavenly Store—a store that never lost a battle.

Suddenly, a series of notifications appeared on certain people's Spirit Comms.

"Due to your evil actions, you have been permanently banned from this service."

Staring at the message, all the attackers were stunned. Most of them were adventurers and spies planted by the City Lord and clans.

This was how they had known all of the adventurers' movements.

In Clear Wind City, members of the three clans were barred from using the Spirit Comms, shocking them.

In the City Lord's mansion, the City Lord knitted his brow in confusion.

He was in a group chat with his spies when all of them went offline. He tried to reach them, but every attempt failed.

"My Lord, the worst has happened," his butler rushed into the office.

"What happened?" he demanded, keeping calm.

The recent success of their plan had lessened his hatred for the store, and he was in good spirits.

Looking at the calm City Lord, the butler took a deep breath and gathered his thoughts.

"They've banned all our members, including me."

"What do you mean?" His voice began to lose its calm.

"We… we can no longer use the Spirit Comms."

"What! How!" the City Lord shouted, banging his table.

"This must be retaliation from the store," he growled, gritting his teeth in fury.

He would have rushed to attack the store if not for the powerful expert protecting it from the shadows.

"My Lord, what should we do?"

While this was happening in Clear Wind City, it was also taking place in every city in the Soaring Cloud Region.

The sudden bans left everyone in shock.

Previously, they had naively believed the store had no control over their Spirit Comms, but now, their delusional assumptions were shattered.

While the inhabitants of the Soaring Cloud Region tried to understand why the store would ban people, the hidden Intelligence Guild dispatched its assassins to hunt down those who had betrayed the store: the spies.

The following day, hundreds of dead bodies appeared on the roads, each dying a gruesome death.

Instantly, the region was in an uproar. Fear gripped people's hearts as they wondered who could be so ruthless as to kill hundreds overnight.

Suddenly, rumors spread throughout the city that these men were spies in the store, sent to attack the Wu clan and adventurer teams. Explore new worlds at empire

Like wildfire, the rumors spread across the region, and some curious young people went to check the houses of the deceased.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Behold, they found many resources and weapons, confirming the rumors.

Immediately, the public lost all sympathy for them, cursing their entire families for ten generations to die miserable deaths.

As for the City Lords and their alliance, they hid miserably in their mansions.

The sudden death of all their men had scared them senseless. In just one night, all of their men, both those in hiding and those outside the cities, were killed without exception.

Such terrifying power left them breathless.

Now, the other four City Lords regretted their decision to attack the Celestial Heavenly Store.

While the Clear Wind City Lord wallowed in misery, a soldier arrived at his mansion carrying an imperial decree.
