"What do you think of my suggestion?" Zhong Shudao looked at everyone after he spoke. He didn't want to monopolize everything. He wanted to hear the opinions of everyone present.
At the same time, Zhong Shudao sent a telepathic message to the man in the mirror, expressing his truest thoughts.
"I will stay behind with the warriors on the ground and defend Tu Shenzong with my life. Protect Nangong and the rest as they retreat."
Zhong Shudao knew that he couldn't let Nangong and the rest know about this. If Nangong and the rest knew that he wanted to stay, they would definitely choose to stay and fight with him.
Zhong Shudao still wasn't willing to give up on the headquarters so easily. After all, it was Lin Yun's life's work.
He wanted to split up with the man in the mirror. One of them would be a death warrior, while the other would retreat.
The man in the mirror pretended to be calm, but he had no choice but to accept Zhong Shudao's idea.
It wasn't that he was afraid of death. It was a long journey to the Wyvern Valley, and they would inevitably be pursued by the Darkness Sect. Between him and Zhong Shudao, one of them had to survive in order to successfully bring Lin Ying and the rest out of danger.
"I have no objections." After a while, the man in the mirror nodded and expressed his opinion.
He had agreed to Seijen's request previously because he didn't want to see an internal conflict in the East Sea Alliance. He also felt that the Darkness Sect wouldn't attack the citizens again.
Prince Namgong and the rest agreed after thinking for a long time. After all, they knew that it would be inconvenient to bring the citizens along when they were escaping.
Moreover, the Darkness Sect would discover their escape route sooner or later. By then, a few battles would be unavoidable.
"Alright! I'll go out now and inform the Holy Island Lord and the rest. "Zhong Shudao heaved a sigh of relief. Since things had come to this, this was the only way.
Zhong Shudao, who had walked to the entrance of the hall, couldn't help but turn back to look at the majestic hall. There was a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.
Perhaps after today, the headquarters and the hall might no longer exist.
They didn't know how long it would take for them to return here.
"Emissary Jing, Emissary Zhong isn't coming with us?" Prince Namgong and the others looked at each other.
The man in the mirror squeezed out a smile. He looked at Zhong Shudao's departing figure and said with a smile, "He's just going to give some instructions. Let's go quickly. Everyone will catch up soon."
The man in the mirror urged everyone to hurry to the secret tunnel deep inside the headquarters.
Everyone knew that the battle between the Dark Sect and Tu Shenzong had begun.
Even though the battle with the Eastern Realm hadn't ended yet, the news had already spread throughout the entire Realm of Chaos.
Tu Shenzong suffered a crushing defeat. Four million soldiers, Wu Sheng Seijen, and the four Island Lords of the Eastern Sea were no match for the six people from the Dark Sect.
Far away in the Southwest, a martial artist sighed, "This Tu Shenzong that has lost Lin Yun is like a group of dragons without a leader. I'm afraid that Tu Shenzong will be destroyed today as well."
The people of the world sighed. A sect that was once hailed as a "dark horse" in the God Realm might fall today.
At the same time, in the North Sea at the border of the Northern Realm, dozens of islands were situated there.
In the depths of the North Sea, surrounded by blue and calm seawater.
In the middle of it all was a huge island.
On this island, there was a tall mountain that reached the clouds.
At the top of the mountain, there was a majestic castle.
On the mountainside of this mountain, there were three big words carved: Sea King Island.
When the Dark Sect attacked Tu Shenzong, Sun Qiu of the Sea King Island had made an important decision.
At this moment, Sun Qiu was in the castle on the mountain.
He saw Sun Qiu standing in front of a house with his head lowered. His eyes flashed with stubbornness.
"Lord Father … I still hope that you can reconsider," Sun Qiu said in a deep voice.
There was no response from the house for a long time. Then, a voice sounded.
This voice was a little weathered, but it was full of vigor. There was an unquestionable authority in the tone. The owner of this voice was the Island Lord of the Sea King Island.
"Even though we have never been on good terms with the Dark Sect, the Holy Church will not allow such a thing to be done openly."
The Island Lord of the Sea King Island sighed and continued, "Lin Yun is already dead. No matter how talented he was in the past, he's just a dead man now. He's of no value to us."
After Lin Yun "died", Sun Qiu had been begging his father to lend a helping hand to Tu Shenzong.
Sun Qiu had a special obsession with Lin Yun. He did not just treat Lin Yun as a good friend.
However, the Island Lord of the Sea King Island rejected him decisively every time.
Today, he heard that the Dark Sect had launched an all-out attack on Tu Shenzong. Even though Lin Yun was dead, Zhong Shudao, Prince Namgong, and the rest still had connections with him. Sun Qiu really did not want to see his old friends die in the hands of the Dark Sect.
"Father, when Lin Yun fought with the Assassination Society, he also entered the so-called" Gate of Destiny "that was worse than death. Didn't he return safely in the end?" Sun Qiu was still unwilling to give up and continued to persuade his father.
"If he's alive, I want to see him. If he's dead, I want to see his body. We've sent so many people out, but we haven't found Lin Yun's corpse. We haven't even seen Ye Shenghui and the rest who went with Lin Yun. "
"Can you conclude that Lin Yun is definitely dead just based on Undercurrent's one-sided statement?"
"Where is he?" The Island Lord of the Sea King Island only threw out a sentence to shut Sun Qiu up.
"You're not a child, you should understand the pros and cons of this!" The Island Lord of the Sea King Island seemed to be a little angry and said coldly, "In private, no matter how bad our relationship with the Dark Sect is, the Holy Church can turn a blind eye to it."
"If we put this conflict on the table, we'll be the ones in the wrong!"
Even though he was not afraid of the Dark Sect, they still had the Holy Church above them. It was not their place to act rashly.
"Father, there's something that I don't know if I should say." Sun Qiu lowered his head and asked carefully after hesitating for a long time.
"Say it." An impatient voice came from inside the house.
Sun Qiu moistened his throat and talked about some of the things he had discovered earlier.
"Father, do you know who's the person in charge of the Divine Heaven Auction House?"
The Island Lord in the house did not respond and fell into silence.
The Holy Church had always been secretive. Even a small person in charge of an auction house could not be underestimated.
Sun Qiu told the Island Lord of the Sea King Island about how the people from the Divine Heaven Auction House had leaked information about the Dark Sect to Lin Yun twice.
He felt that there was something fishy about this matter at first, and he was terrified after thinking about it carefully.
After all, it was impossible for a small person in charge of an auction house to know so many secrets about the Dark Sect.
Since the Holy Church had the intention to tell Lin Yun about the Dark Sect, did this prove that the Holy Church actually valued Lin Yun?
