To the Pine Crane Clan, the second batch of messengers was an uninvited guest that was annoying.
However, to Ji Tianxing, it was an opportunity and a breakthrough.
If the second batch of messengers had not arrived in time, it would have been difficult for him to sneak into Ancient Pine grotto-heaven without alerting anyone.
He followed the second batch of messengers and flew across the night sky, heading straight for the depths of Ancient Pine grotto-heaven.
Along the way, he could see the beautiful scenery of Ancient Pine grotto-heaven.
However, it was late at night and it was quiet all around. There were no disciples of the Pine Crane Clan.
Presumably, under such a tense atmosphere, the disciples of the Pine Crane Clan were not in the mood to come out and play.
…
At the same time.
In the depths of Ancient Pine grotto-heaven, there was a group of palaces that were lit up in the middle of the night.
More than a hundred magnificent palaces stood on top of more than forty mountain peaks. They were arranged in picturesque disorder, forming a natural Heaven and Earth Formation.
This was the residence of the Pine Crane Clan. The most majestic palace in the middle was the Pine Crane Palace.
At this moment, the door of the main hall of the Pine Crane Palace was wide open. The main hall was brightly lit and dazzling.
In the magnificent main hall, the Pine Crane Clan Leader sat on the gilded throne at the head of the hall. He was leaning on the wide back of the chair and holding his chin with one hand. He was in a daze.
The Clan Leader was already over twenty-six thousand years old. His strength had reached the later stage of the Ninth Level Divine King Realm. He was only one step away from the Peak Divine King Realm.
It was a pity that he had been stuck in this realm for over eight thousand years.
Without exceptional talent, aptitude, comprehension, and amazing opportunities and treasures, it would be difficult for him to become a Peak Divine King in his life.
This thin and skinny old man always liked to wear simple green clothes and black cloth shoes. He also wore a simple and old bamboo hat that had gone through the vicissitudes of life.
He had a head full of gray and white sparse hair, but it was combed meticulously every day.
His face was thin and his eyes were sunken. However, his eyes were clear and sharp. He always had a goatee.
Judging from his appearance, the Pine Crane Clan Leader was not a flexible and flexible person. He was a stubborn and even paranoid old man.
And that was indeed the case.
In the main hall that was brightly lit, there were two high-level divine kings sitting on the two sides of the main hall. They were both wearing brocade clothes and luxurious divine crowns. With one look, one could tell that they were powerful and influential practitioners from Youdu.
These two were the first batch of messengers sent by Commander Styx. They had arrived at Ancient Pine Grotto five days ago.
Over the past five days, the two messengers had to negotiate with Patriarch Pine Crane and the elders of the Pine Crane Clan in the main hall for a very long time.
The two messengers tried every possible way to persuade Patriarch Song He, using both the carrot and the stick. However, they were still unable to change Patriarch Song He's mind, nor could they change Patriarch Song He's decision.
The two of them had racked their brains and exhausted their mouths, but to no avail.
Until today, both sides had lost their patience and were on the verge of fighting each other on the spot.
But even then, Patriarch Song He still acted like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water. He simply slumped on the throne and pretended to be in deep thought and rest with his eyes closed.
The two messengers were completely helpless. They could only drink their tea with a black face.
Behind the two of them, the twenty guards that accompanied them stood carefully. They didn't dare to make a single sound.
The elders of the Pine Crane Clan sat on the two large chairs on the left and right sides.
Although they were accompanying the two messengers, the two sides had already reached an agreement.
However, the negotiations between the two sides had already broken down. They sat there calmly, either closing their eyes to rest or quietly drinking tea. No one spoke a word.
And the turning point of the situation was that the second batch of messengers sent by Commander Styx was about to arrive.
As early as a few hours ago, the two messengers from the first batch received news that the second batch of messengers was about to arrive to deliver Commander Styx's latest orders.
Although this made them feel like they were not trusted and were about to be abandoned, this was Commander Styx's decision.
But this was Commander Styx's decision. They could only silently accept it. They had no right to object.
After thinking it through, the two messengers felt a sense of relief.
Since Commander Styx had sent the second batch of messengers to deal with Patriarch Song He, there was nothing for them to do.
Therefore, both sides remained silent and quietly waited for the second batch of messengers to arrive.
Time passed silently.
Half an hour went by quickly.
At this moment, a hazy divine light in the distant night sky was rapidly approaching.
In just a few breaths, the divine light enveloped more than twenty figures and landed on the square outside the main hall.
After the divine light dispersed, the two messengers and twenty golden-armored guards were revealed.
Seeing this, the two messengers and twenty guards in the main hall stood up and walked out of the main hall to welcome the arrival of their colleagues.
Even if the two sides had the same power, status, and rank, in Ancient Pine Grotto-Heaven, colleagues had to give face and show off.
Because this represented Commander Styx's prestige.
Since the two messengers walked out of the main hall with the guards, Patriarch Song He and the elders could no longer close their eyes and rest.
They didn't want to submit to Commander Styx, but they couldn't openly rebel and challenge Commander Styx's prestige and bottom line.
Otherwise, before Sword God could attack Reincarnation Island, the enraged Commander Nether River would make an example out of the Pine Crane Tribe.
One had to know that other than the Pine Crane Clan, there were four other ancient clans that were also weighing the pros and cons.
If the Pine Crane Clan became the target of Commander Styx's prestige, it would be too unfair.
Not long after, Patriarch Song He led a few elders to the square unhurriedly.
At this moment, the two batches of messengers had already greeted and greeted each other.
Patriarch Song He and a few other elders also stepped forward unwillingly to pay their respects to the second batch of messengers.
In fact, both sides' attitudes were obvious. Even if the second batch of messengers came to persuade him, Patriarch Song He wouldn't compromise.
However, both sides hadn't fallen out with each other yet, so the Pine Crane Clan still had to put on a show.
Unexpectedly, the two new messengers didn't even bother to put on a show.
After Patriarch Song He and the others bowed, the two arrogant messengers started to make things difficult in public with gloomy faces.
"How dare you, Song He Tao! You've repeatedly disobeyed Commander Styx's orders and disobeyed His Majesty the God Emperor's decree. Your crimes are unforgivable and should be punished! "
The burly messenger on the left had a gloomy expression. His tone was fierce, and he released a powerful aura.
The messenger on the right also took out a noble golden silk. After unfolding it, he read aloud, "Those who see Commander Styx's orders are like seeing Commander Styx himself. Why aren't you kneeling and saluting?"
Obviously, this golden silk was an order written by Commander Styx himself. It represented Commander Styx's personal arrival.
The messengers present hurriedly knelt and saluted.
Patriarch Song He frowned with an ugly expression. The other elders looked at each other and had a bad premonition in their hearts.
