"Master Kenshin was right!"
As soon as he entered the meeting hall, Patriarch Song He felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange.
The patriarchs and elders of the four clans were all in disguise.
On the surface, they seemed to be drinking tea, resting with their eyes closed, and waiting patiently.
But in fact, everyone's eyes were filled with impatience and dissatisfaction.
Especially the patriarch of the Hidden Dragon Clan, who was the most straightforward and hot-tempered guy, he almost had a black face.
Seeing this scene, Patriarch Song He stepped into the hall and laughed heartily.
"Hahahaha …"
Nobody knew when it started, but there was an unwritten rule on the Reincarnation Island.
When the various forces and experts met, they had to laugh and greet each other.
The longer they laughed, the less hostile they were, and the more they asked the other party to rest assured.
Therefore, Patriarch Song He laughed for more than ten breaths without taking a breath.
As he laughed, he glanced at the powerhouses with a smile on his face and nodded in greeting to the four Clan Leaders.
This scene … looked a bit strange.
When the experts of the four clans saw that Patriarch Song He had finally appeared, their impatience and resentment finally dissipated.
They all stood up and focused their gazes on Patriarch Song He. All of them revealed friendly smiles.
Only the patriarch of the Hidden Dragon Clan frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Song Hetao, what the hell are you doing? Are you deliberately mystifying things? "
Patriarch Song He was not angry in the face of his question, and he still maintained his smile.
He walked to the front of the throne, then turned to look at the crowd and explained, "Patriarchs, this old man knows that you've been waiting here for four to six hours, and you're a bit anxious.
After all, you all want to see that lord as soon as possible, and this old man can understand your feelings.
But please understand that this old man must wait for all of you to arrive before we can talk openly.
Otherwise, those who arrive later will suspect that this old man is colluding with those who arrive first. Don't you think so? "
When the patriarch of the Hidden Dragon Clan complained before, Patriarch Han Xuan also said the same thing, so everyone understood this reason, and the patriarch of the Hidden Dragon Clan could not make trouble again.
However, he was still indignant and said in a deep voice, "Now that everyone is here, shouldn't we get down to business?"
Patriarch Song He nodded and said, "Since the misunderstanding has been resolved, this old man hopes that everyone can discuss this matter peacefully.
After all, we have the same situation and goal. In the eyes of the millions of people on the Samsara Island, we are allies.
Therefore, this old man would like to remind all of you … "
At this point, he deliberately paused to observe the reactions of the four patriarchs.
The four Clan Leaders didn't object to his words. They only urged him, seeming a little impatient and expectant.
"That's enough, Patriarch Song He. Stop keeping us in suspense."
"What do you want to remind me of? Just say it!"
Patriarch Song He stroked his beard and said in a neither fast nor slow manner, "The lord that everyone wants to see is currently in the Ancient Pine Grotto. Everyone will be able to see him soon.
But you should also understand how noble that lord's status is and how powerful his methods are.
If you have any unrealistic ideas, you should dispel them as soon as possible.
In addition, everyone should be more respectful to that lord.
Most importantly, that lord thinks highly of our efficiency and ability.
Therefore, it's best that we don't waste time arguing over such trivial matters.
If we really want to form an alliance and work together, it's better for us to work together and do our best. "
These were Patriarch Song He's heartfelt words. Of course, he hoped that the four clans could behave themselves and not cause any trouble.
The four Clan Leaders might not agree with these words, nor would they pay too much attention to Patriarch Song He.
However, in front of Patriarch Song He, especially before they saw Kenshin himself, they certainly wouldn't show any dissatisfaction.
The four Clan Leaders nodded repeatedly to show their agreement and echoed Patriarch Song He's words.
After a series of hypocritical pleasantries, the Hidden Dragon Clan Leader couldn't wait to ask, "Patriarch Song He, since we've been frank and honest, there's no awkwardness or misunderstanding.
Then, can you ask that lord to come out so that we can meet him face to face … "
Patriarch Song He looked at him with a smile and said, "I'm afraid you've forgotten that you haven't recovered your original faces yet. How can you be frank and honest?"
"Uh …" The Hidden Dragon Clan Leader was embarrassed and quickly removed his disguise.
The other three Clan Leaders also smiled embarrassedly and quickly removed their divine abilities and secret techniques to restore their original faces.
After the four Clan Leaders removed their disguises, the four Elders standing behind them also restored their original faces.
Therefore, the atmosphere in the main hall was much more relaxed. The Elders looked at each other and smiled, hiding the awkwardness in their hearts.
In contrast, the Hidden Dragon Clan Leader, who was younger, was a burly middle-aged man with a full beard. He was a typical boorish man.
He asked again, "Song He Tao, is it alright now? Go and ask that lord to come out. "
Patriarch Song He still looked at him with a smile and explained, "You must be joking, Hidden Dragon Clan Leader. I'm only that lord's subordinate and servant. How would I dare to make a decision on my own?
Moreover, that lord is dealing with some matters and will need four to six hours to complete them.
Everyone has waited for a few months, so we're not in a hurry. Don't be impatient and wait patiently for a while. "
The four Clan Leaders were somewhat disappointed by this explanation. They did not believe Patriarch Song He's words.
However, they were not the host and had never seen that lord in person. They could not invite him themselves, could they?
Even if they guessed that Patriarch Song He was manipulating them, they could only swallow their anger and silently sit down to drink tea.
The main hall was silent again.
In order to show his sincerity, Patriarch Song He also sat down to drink tea and chat with everyone.
However, the Clan Leaders were not in a good mood and did not bother to respond.
Therefore, after a few awkward words, Patriarch Song He simply shut his mouth and did not speak.
As time passed, the Clan Leaders became more and more anxious. They were more and more terrified of Patriarch Song He's cunning old fox and Kenshin's shrewdness.
They also understood that this was not Patriarch Song He's idea. Kenshin must have deliberately left them hanging to dampen their spirits.
However, they could only pretend to be confused. How would they dare to express their dissatisfaction with Kenshin?
Two hours passed, and the four Clan Leaders were full of irritation and resentment.
Four hours later, the resentment of the four Clan Leaders gradually subsided. After calming down, they began to carefully ponder Kenshin's intentions.
Before coming to Ancient Pine Grotto-Heaven, they had already decided on how to negotiate with Kenshin, what conditions and benefits to reach.
But now, after three hours of calming down … their spirits had been dampened again and again, and their willpower was somewhat shaken.
Recalling Patriarch Song He's reminder, they gradually understood the reality.
They had prayed for Kenshin's protection and wanted to follow Kenshin to overthrow the God Of The Underworld's rule and become the ruler of Reincarnation Island.
Therefore, they did not seem to be qualified to negotiate with Kenshin!
