"Vice Sect Leader, what Tiger said makes sense. We will have to go to war with the Dark Sect sooner or later. This branch is just a small deterrent. I think we can take them down, "Long Chenfeng said as he cupped his fists.
Xiao Yin nodded and fell into deep thought.
Indeed, they would have to go to war with the Dark Sect sooner or later. This was a fact that could not be changed.
If outsiders were to find out that a branch of the Dark Sect was actually in the domain that they ruled, they would probably become a laughing stock if word got out.
Ye Shenghui saw that Xiao Yin was wavering and hurriedly gave Zhong Shudao a look.
Zhong Shudao understood and walked out. He cupped his fists and said in a deep voice, "Vice Sect Leader, I think we need to discuss this matter at length."
Xiao Yin lifted her head and looked at Zhong Shudao, gesturing for him to continue.
After all, Lin Yun had always said that if he was not in the sect, it would be best to discuss with Zhong Shudao first.
"The current military strength of this branch is based on the information from a few spies. In reality, we are not sure how many military strength there is in this branch."
"Although we are going to go to war with the Dark Sect, the Sect Leader is not in the sect now. If we go there rashly and fall into the enemy's ambush, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Zhong Shudao's words were echoed by everyone. Only Hu Hei Xin impatiently waved his hand and said with a smile, "I say, Old Zhong, why are you still so dilly-dallying? Even if there is an ambush, what can they do when there are almost three million soldiers in the northeast region pressing down on their borders? "
Zhong Shudao shook his head and voiced out his concerns.
"General Hu, you've only seen one possibility, but you haven't seen the other."
"Let's say that there are only two hundred thousand soldiers in this branch. Even if we successfully take it down, the resources we will get will only be that much."
"However, if there is an ambush in this branch and there are many soldiers inside, have you ever thought that even if there is only one Wu Sheng inside!"
"Then all of us in Tu Shenzong will have to come out in full force to barely be able to stop him."
"This is a small matter. However, have you ever considered that the Sect Leader is not in the sect now? If the Dark Darkness Sect finds out about this and leads their army to attack the North-East Region, or even the North Region, will we be able to hold them off?"
Zhong Shudao's words instantly silenced Hu Heixin.
Ye Shenghui stood at the side and nodded approvingly. Zhong Shudao's words coincided with his.
Even if they managed to take over this division, they wouldn't be able to obtain a lot of resources. However, if the Darkness Sect knew that Lin Yun wasn't keeping watch over Tu Shenzong, they might choose to start a war now. If that happened, the outcome would be extremely tragic.
"Vice Sect Leader, my suggestion is to not alert the enemy! Looking at the time, Sect Master has been gone for more than ten days. It should be about time for him to return. "
"We'll wait for the Sect Master to return before we make a decision. This is the best solution for now." Zhong Shudao cupped his hands together and said.
Xiao Yin didn't hesitate at all and immediately announced the outcome. "Order Yi Jian to send out scouts to see the people from this branch. In addition, according to Envoy Zhong's suggestion, do not alert the enemy and wait for the Sect Master to return!"
"Humph!" Hu Hei Xin abruptly stood up. Everyone could clearly sense his anger. Without saying a word, he directly left the hall.
"Chen Feng, go and persuade him." Xiao Yin waved her hand in annoyance. Although she hated Ye Shenghui very much, she also believed that Ye Shenghui had something to do with Long Woo-seok's death.
However, this included Lin Yun's instruction to look at the bigger picture before he left.
The higher-ups also left one after another. The atmosphere was extremely quiet. It was an unpleasant meeting.
Zhong Shudao and Ye Shenghui traveled together. In comparison, Zhong Shudao didn't think that Ye Shenghui had to take full responsibility for Long Woo-seok's death during the battle with the Assassination Society.
In addition, Ye Shenghui was once the Vice Sect Leader of the Assassination Society, so he had a unique understanding of strategies. He also tried his best to teach Zhong Shudao.
"Old Ye, a tiger's temper is like that. Don't take it to heart." Zhong Shudao tried to persuade him. He could also tell that Ye Shenghui hadn't been living a good life in Tu Shenzong.
Zhong Shudao couldn't bear to see a half-step Wu Sheng being bullied like that.
After all, Ye Shenghui had fought side by side with Lin Yun and saved Yue Yue and the others' lives.
"It's fine." Ye Shenghui smiled. He didn't take this matter to heart. In comparison, he was more worried about something else.
"Envoy Zhong, what I'm most worried about now is that General Hu will do something stupid."
Zhong Shudao frowned when he heard Ye Shenghui's words and asked, "Are you saying that he will act on his own?"
Ye Shenghui nodded and explained, "It seems that my persuasion in the main hall today had the opposite effect. General Hu might fly into a rage out of humiliation and want to prove his point."
The corners of Zhong Shudao's face twitched slightly, and he said with a smile, "I don't think so. Although General Hu does things rashly, he's actually bold and meticulous. I've already explained it so clearly in the hall, so I believe he wouldn't do such a thing."
"I hope so." Ye Shenghui lifted his head and looked into the distance. He was still worried about this branch of the Dark Sect. Based on his many years of experience, the existence of this branch was an unreasonable phenomenon.
Meanwhile, on another street, Hu Heixin and the others were walking side by side. Everyone's faces were dark. Hu Heixin was filled with rage as he growled in a low voice, "Who does Ye Shenghui think he is? How dare he spout such nonsense in the main hall!"
"Yes, Envoy Hu. This old man killed Sect Leader Long."
"I don't know why the Sect Leader let him join our Tu Shenzong!"
"What a joke. Doesn't he know how many members of the Longhu Sect are among the main higher-ups of Tu Shenzong?"
This group of people were the elders of the Longhu Sect. They hated Ye Shenghui so much that they spoke indignantly.
"Big Brother Long is dead! 'Why did Lin Yun summon such a thing?!' Damn it! "The more Hu Heixin thought about it, the angrier he got. He suddenly let out a roar and stomped on the ground.
"Why? Are you still angry? "At that moment, Long Chenfeng walked to Hu Heixin's side and patted his shoulder with a smile.
"Brother Chenfeng! We can't let this matter rest like this! Who does Ye Shenghui think he is? Lin Yun actually … "Hu Heixin was extremely dissatisfied and complained to Long Chenfeng. However, before he could finish, he was stopped by Long Chenfeng.
