The Poison Sect's sect head ordered.
Xiao Yang found an empty seat and sat down.
The Poison Sect Master then said, "We'll talk about the merits when we get back to the sect. Right now, we're facing a problem. The Sky Sect's Third and Second Exalts are in our hands. Should we take this opportunity to annex the Sky Sect? "
"That's inevitable. The weak are prey to the strong, and only the fittest survive. Being kind to your own people is enough."
The Pavilion Master of the Tool Refining Pavilion expressed his stance.
In truth, he couldn't stand how arrogant the Sky Sect had always been, suppressing them and imprisoning Ling Long for so long. As the junior brother, he naturally had to avenge his senior sister. He hadn't had the chance before, but now was the perfect opportunity. He naturally wouldn't let it go.
Elder Fo stood out and said, "Buddha is merciful. Once a war breaks out, there will naturally be no casualties, but it will cause great suffering. Why don't we sign some agreements and let them carry out the transaction? Moreover, once annexed, there will definitely be problems. We can let Tianzong guard the borders of the four regions."
The Formation Pavilion Master said, "Let's fight. Only the power in our hands is our own power. Otherwise, they might not listen to us. Even if they do, they'll only feign compliance. If a huge problem arises, it'll be troublesome."
The various pavilion masters and three elders all expressed their opinions. No one was convinced by the other.
Some advocated war, while others advocated peace. They could take advantage of this opportunity to obtain sufficient resources.
After half a day of discussion, they still couldn't come to a conclusion.
Thus, the Poison Sect Master's gaze fell on Xiao Yang. "Xiao Yang, do you have any thoughts on whether we should fight or make peace?"
Xiao Yang blinked and looked at the crowd. "I think the Sky Sect's Head Exalts should be the most anxious right now. What are we anxious about?"
"Whether we fight or make peace depends on the Sky Sect's Head Exalts. If he doesn't know what's good for him, we'll annex him. If he knows what's good for him, there's no harm in keeping him."
Xiao Yang summarized simply.
When everyone heard this, their eyes couldn't help but light up. Rather than arguing here, they might as well wait and see the Sky Sect's attitude.
The Sky Sect had lost two of their top experts, so they couldn't possibly do nothing about it.
Heaven Sect.
In the conference hall.
Originally, there were three seats here, but now, two of them were empty. Only one person was sitting here, and that was the current highest authority of the Sky Sect, the Great Sovereign.
In front of him were the ten pavilion masters. They had all come to report the situation and discuss the future direction of the Sky Sect.
"Let's talk. You all know the situation. Second and Third Reverends have been captured by the Poison Sect. The Poison Sect definitely won't let go of such a good chance to annex us. Fight or surrender? Come up with a plan."
Great Senior Lord said loudly.
Sword Tower's pavilion master, Wei Zhongxiong, stepped forward and said loudly, "Head sovereign, please don't worry. The Poison Sect won't dare to act recklessly. After all, we're just a lowly sect under the jurisdiction of a higher sect. We can use other resources to exchange for the two Reverends, and we can also ask for help from our senior brothers in the middle tier sects. "
"That's right, I second that. The Poison Sect is just a small sect. Our Sky Sect is big and has a strong background. There's no need to hold back against the Poison Sect."
"I'm willing to go to the Poison Sect and discuss the matter of returning the two Reverends."
"I'm willing to go to a middle tier sect and ask for help."
The ten pavilion masters of the Sky Sect spoke one after another. Their intentions were clear. They couldn't surrender to the Poison Sect and were even thinking of ways to exchange for the two Reverends. If the Poison Sect refused, they would ask for help from a middle tier sect.
The Sky Sect's head sovereign nodded slowly. Even if he was the highest authority in the Sky Sect, he still needed the approval and obedience of his subordinates. Otherwise, he was nothing but a fart.
"Alright, let's do that."
The Sky Sect's head sovereign ordered.
Some people prepared resources, some went to the Poison Sect to negotiate, and some went to the middle tier sects to ask for help.
Each went their own way with a clear division of labor.
This time, Wei Zhongxiong was the one going to negotiate with the Poison Sect.
He led a few disciples from the Sword Pavilion through a transportation formation and quickly headed to the two sects' towns. Then, they entered Carefree City.
Carefree City, inner sect, meeting hall.
"Reporting, the Sky Sect's representative, Sword Pavilion Master Wei Zhongxiong, requests a visit."
A servant ran in and shouted at the Poison Sect's sect master.
"See, I told you. They'll definitely come, and they're even more anxious than we are."
The Master of the Blacksmith Pavilion laughed out loud proudly.
The Poison Sect Master nodded, his expression relaxed. He said to the servant, "Go, let them in."
Before long, the eighth rank Martial Ancestor Realm Wei Zhongxiong walked in with his Sword Pavilion disciples. When he saw the Poison Sect Master and the others, he cupped his fists and said, "This one is Wei Zhongxiong, the Sword Pavilion Master of the Sky Sect. Greetings."
"Mm. What business do you have here?"
The Poison Sect Master said indifferently.
"I'm here for the matter of the second and third Reverends," Wei Zhongxiong said, neither servile nor overbearing.
The Poison Sect's upper echelons sneered and looked at Wei Zhongxiong mockingly.
The Poison Sect's sect master was enraged. "Your Second and Third Supremacies invaded my Poison Sect's realm and tried to kill my people. They deserve to be executed. They'll be executed in half a day. What do you have to say?"
Wei Zhongxiong was instantly enraged. Wasn't it obvious why they'd tried to kill Xiao Yang? Xiao Yang was clearly in the wrong. He'd barged into the Sky Sect's territory and kidnapped Ling Long.
Of course, it wasn't appropriate for him to say such things here.
He hurriedly said, "I beg the Poison Sect's Sect Master's forgiveness. Our Second and Third Exalts were careless and made such a mistake. Our Heaven Sect is willing to accept all kinds of conditions as an apology to take back the two Exalts."
"And if we don't let them go?"
The Weapon Refining Pavilion Master said coldly.
How could it be so simple to let them go?
Wei Zhongxiong's expression darkened. He said firmly, "If the Poison Sect insists, then we'll have to settle this through war."
Hearing this, the other pavilion masters burst into laughter.
"Your two Reverends are already in our hands. Your high-end forces are no match for our Poison Sect's attacks. What gives you the guts to start a war?"
The Weapon Refining Pavilion Master sneered.
Wei Zhongxiong naturally wouldn't reveal that he'd sought help from a mid-tier sect.
He said solemnly, "Even if our entire sect is destroyed, we'll fight to the bitter end."
It had to be said that his aura of facing death with equanimity really moved many people.
"If you want to fight, then let's fight."
The Weapon Refining Pavilion Master was also enraged. He spoke decisively without fear, and the aura of an expert erupted from his body. He glared viciously at Wei Zhongxiong with intense hostility.
"War is the last resort, so I hope everyone can remain calm and try to resolve this through negotiation."
