A decision was quickly made. When no one objected, the old man leading the group said, "Since that's the case, let's set off immediately. Tell Qi Kun to wait for us here." A decision was quickly made. When no one objected, the old man leading the group said, "Since that's the case, let's set off immediately. Tell Qi Kun to wait for us here."
The group rushed to the small city where the Sacred Palace group was located. At the same time, the Sacred Palace group was arguing endlessly. Some felt that they should retreat for the time being. After all, now wasn't the time to start a conflict with Great Peng Palace. Once a conflict broke out, everyone's identities would be exposed.
However, there were also some who felt that even if they retreated, where could they go? Was the outside world safer than here? Perhaps not. Moreover, Great Peng Palace was clearly easier to deal with compared to the Origin World. If they had to choose, they would rather face Great Peng Palace than the Origin World.
Since that was the case, why should they retreat? They wanted to see how Great Peng Palace would react. At the very least, with everyone's strength, they could at least negotiate with Great Peng Palace.
There were two different opinions, and the differences between them were huge. Moreover, both had their own reasons. After listening to everyone's argument, Cang Xing was the first to speak.
"Alright, when will there be a result if we continue arguing like this?"
There was no need to mention Cang Xing's prestige in the Sacred Palace. Apart from Xiao Chen, Long Qing, and Xuanyuan Ling, Cang Xing's prestige was unparalleled. Therefore, as soon as he spoke, everyone quickly stopped arguing.
The scene instantly quieted down. Cang Xing looked at Nangong Guan, Zhou Song, and the others and asked, "What about you guys? What do you think?"
Cang Xing was asking Ancestor Realm experts. They were also the cornerstones of the Sacred Palace, so their opinions were obviously very important.
Under Cang Xing's questioning, Nangong Guan, Zhou Song, and the others also expressed their opinions. However, their attitudes were somewhat unexpected. Nangong Guan and the others actually felt that there was no need to leave for the time being.
Or rather, it was better to wait here for the people from the Great Roc Palace to arrive.
After hearing Nangong Guan and the others' answers, Cang Xing asked Xiao Qing, who was sitting at the head of the table. Xiao Chen wasn't present, and Xiao Qing was Xiao Chen's father, so his opinion was naturally very important.
"I agree with Nangong Guan's decision."
This was Xiao Qing's answer. At this point, everyone already knew the final outcome. There was no need to take any action for the time being. Even if they knew that the experts from Dapeng Palace would appear, there was no need for them to leave.
There was no better way to deal with this, and the situation in the outside world was much more dangerous than in the Dark Awaken World. As such, it was better to remain in the Dark Awaken World. Compared to the Origin World, the Great Roc Palace was much easier to deal with.
Since even Xiao Qing had spoken, and his thoughts were the same as Cang Xing's, Cang Xing immediately agreed. "Alright, since that's the case, we'll stay. However, we can't let our guard down. Pay attention to the Great Roc Palace's movements at all times. Once the experts from Dapeng Palace appear, report to me immediately."
In the end, the people from the Saint Palace chose to stay and wait for the experts from Dapeng Palace to arrive. Although this decision was somewhat unexpected, no one objected. After all, this was the decision of the Vice Sect Leaders and Xiao Qing, so no one had the right to object.
They continued to stay in the Xiao family mansion, quietly waiting for the elite practitioners from the Great Roc Palace to arrive. In the next few days, Xiao Yao and the other two were prohibited from leaving the house. With regards to this, the three of them were aware of the current situation and were extremely obedient.
"Big brother, what do you think will happen when the people from Dapeng Palace arrive?" Since they had nothing to do, the three siblings gathered together and chatted while drinking.
In response to Xiao Lao's question, Xiao Yao took a sip of wine and said, "They'll probably fight first before sitting down to negotiate."
"Why do they have to fight first?"
"Heh, of course they want to see our strength. If we're too strong, Dapeng Palace will negotiate with us to confirm our intentions and purpose. However, if we don't have such strength, Dapeng Palace will not hesitate to destroy us."
Xiao Yao's guess was very accurate. She had already guessed Dapeng Palace's decision. However, Xiao Lao did not quite understand. Since they were going to negotiate, why did they have to fight?
Xiao Lao clearly did not realize that the basis of negotiation was built on the basis that both parties were equal. In other words, if the difference in strength was too great, then you wouldn't even have the right to negotiate.
After all, if you were no longer a threat, why didn't they just destroy you? Why did they have to negotiate with you? One had to know that negotiation meant compromise, and this compromise was a compromise between both parties. No one would be able to gain an advantage.
Since I have the strength to destroy you, why should I choose to compromise? Wouldn't it be easier to just destroy you?
Xiao Yao understood the crux of the matter very well. Hence, she was certain that Dapeng Palace's arrival would definitely trigger a great battle. In this battle, the Sacred Palace group would have to bring out enough strength to make Dapeng Palace wary in exchange for a chance to negotiate.
Seeing that Xiao Lao was still puzzled, Xiao Yao shook her head and said with a smile, "Alright, this matter has nothing to do with us. It's a matter for grandpa and the other Progenitor experts. It's useless for us to worry about it."
Xiao Qing was also at the Progenitor stage, and the most crucial part of this battle was the battle between Progenitor stage experts. As for the others, they were not that important. Moreover, Xiao Qing and the others would never allow the three siblings to participate in the battle. This was something that Xiao Yao had already expected.
Xiao Yao had already guessed what might happen next. On the other side, in Xiao Qing's residence, Xiao Qing and Jun Wuya were sitting opposite each other. Jun Wuya had been with Xiao Qing and the others all this time. Xiao Qing said helplessly as he looked at Jun Wuya.
"It seems that this battle is unavoidable."
"This is inevitable. Without sufficient strength, there is no possibility of a fair discussion." Jun Wuya said faintly.
How could Xiao Qing and Jun Wuya not have thought of something that even Xiao Yao had thought of? Therefore, everyone was already prepared for battle.
However, such a battle was indeed unpleasant. After all, it was completely meaningless. Moreover, no one wanted to provoke the Great Roc Palace. If possible, Xiao Qing would definitely want to wait calmly for Xiao Chen to come out of seclusion before making a fuss.
However, now that they had been discovered by the people of the Great Roc Palace by a freak combination of factors, they could only fight.
It could be said that they were forced into a corner, but they had no choice. Looking at Xiao Qing's helpless expression, Jun Wuya chuckled and said, "Alright, we don't have to decide the outcome of this battle. We just need to show the strength that the Great Roc Palace is wary of. Moreover, the Great Roc Palace probably underestimated our numbers. Perhaps we can win without a fight."
