"Does that mean that all of you believe that these foreign dynasties have colluded with the Sacred Dynasty?" The Fifth Elder could not help but ask when he saw everyone nodding in agreement.
"Although we can't be certain that what Second Elder said is correct, I think what Second Elder said does make some sense.
Even if these foreign dynasties have colluded with the Sacred Dynasty, I think there may be some connection between them.
Otherwise, I don't believe that such a big thing could happen in such a short period of time! "The Third Elder said.
"Indeed, I don't think it's the time to debate whether these foreign dynasties have colluded with the Sacred Dynasty. Instead, we should think of a way to stop this disaster from spreading.
If we allow these foreign dynasties to continue annexing their territories, I believe that within a few years, all the foreign dynasties in the world will be involved in this war!
When that time comes, it will be even more difficult for us to stop this war! "The Fourth Elder said.
"This is an important problem that cannot be skipped directly. If we can't figure out whether they are really colluding with the Sacred Dynasty, we may not be able to stop this war.
This is because all of this is what the Sacred Dynasty wants. They are the ones who deliberately instigated this war. They hope that all the foreign dynasties in the world will be involved in this war.
In other words, even if the other foreign dynasties are not involved, the Sacred Dynasty will definitely find a way to drag these foreign dynasties down with them! "The Second Elder said.
"Yes, Second Elder's analysis is correct. If this matter is really orchestrated by the Sacred Dynasty behind the scenes, then it will indeed be very difficult to quell this war. "The Great Elder nodded and said.
"Why don't we give it a try first! If we can stop this civil strife, won't we be able to prove that the Sacred Dynasty is not the mastermind behind this? "The Fourth Elder said.
"You can't say that. Although I don't agree with Second Elder that these foreign dynasties are colluding with the Sacred Dynasty, I also think that this matter is very likely related to the Sacred Dynasty.
In my opinion, if the Sacred Dynasty really wanted to use this matter to mess up the world, they could have done it even if they didn't collude with the foreign dynasties.
I wonder if everyone still remembers the civil war in the eastern region? "The Fifth Elder said.
"Of course I remember. Back then, the Xiao Hai, Long Ying, Mo Luo, and Tian Cang Dynasties had a civil war for a few years. Some of them were even almost annexed. In the end, they suffered heavy losses and are still affected by it!" The Third Elder nodded and said.
"That's right. At first, we thought that they were really just fighting over a border dispute, but later on, we found out that someone was deliberately provoking the war.
It's just that at that time, we didn't find out who was provoking the civil war between the outer dynasties. But now, it seems that we should already know who the mastermind was! "The Fifth Elder said.
"Does Fifth Elder mean that the Sacred Dynasty was the mastermind behind the civil war in the east?" Everyone was shocked, but it seemed to make sense.
"Basically, I'm certain that it's the Sacred Dynasty's doing. That's why I firmly believe that although the civil strife this time is even crazier, I still believe that these foreign dynasties wouldn't have the guts to betray us.
I think the Sacred Dynasty is playing the same trick again, using the conflict of interests between the various foreign dynasties to trigger a war of annexation.
It could also be because their plan failed last time, but obviously, they are more experienced in this kind of thing. So this time, after staying silent for so many years, they involved fifty or sixty foreign dynasties at the beginning, causing the situation to go out of control in a very short time, which caused the war to continue to expand.
As a result, the number of foreign dynasties involved in the annexation war has reached hundreds.
Even if we want to stop it, I think it will be very difficult, "the Fifth Elder said.
"If what Fifth Elder said is true, then this is indeed a very troublesome matter. Think about it, there were only a few foreign dynasties back then, and the war only stopped after a few years.
This time, almost half of the world has been involved. It's probably impossible to stop such a huge war!
I think it's better for us to be prepared and be ready to join the war at any time! "The Third Elder said after thinking for a while.
"Join the war? What can we do by joining the war? Fight with them? What's the point? "The Fourth Elder said.
"Of course we're going to take back the world. Are we really going to let the Sacred Dynasty take the world away from us?" Third Elder said.
"Do you think the Holy Dynasty can take away the world so easily? Although the Sacred Dynasty had indeed used the conflicts of interest between the foreign dynasties to disrupt the world, the foreign dynasties' desire to strengthen themselves had never been false.
Now that the Sacred Dynasty is in hiding and letting the other dynasties annex them, do you really think the Sacred Dynasty will be able to easily take down the other dynasties after they have annexed the other dynasties and strengthened themselves? "Fifth Elder retorted." That's right.
"Fifth Elder is right. Be it the foreign dynasties or the sacred dynasties, they are all ambitious people.
Now, we don't care if they are colluding with each other or not. What we can be sure of is that if we let these foreigners control a huge amount of power.
They will never hand over so much territory that they have conquered to the Sacred Dynasty, "Fourth Elder said.
"So what? It doesn't matter if the territory is in the hands of the foreign dynasties or the Sacred Dynasty. It has nothing to do with our Inner Dynasty.
The world belongs to our Inner Dynasty. How can we hand it over to others? "Third Elder said unhappily.
"Third Elder, you might have misunderstood what Fifth Elder and I meant. We have never thought of handing over the world to others.
But now that the world is in chaos, it's not something we can stop just because we want them to.
Besides, if we join the war now, wouldn't that make the Sacred Dynasty that has been hiding in the dark even happier?
So, what we're saying is that even if the control of the world is temporarily in the hands of the foreign dynasties, the Sacred Dynasty will find a way to get it.
When that happens, won't there be a conflict of interest between the foreign dynasties and the Sacred Dynasty? Do you think the foreign dynasties will hand over the territories that they have worked so hard to conquer to the Sacred Dynasty? "Fourth Elder explained.
"Oh! I get it now. You're saying that they will definitely fight over the territories again! Then, we'll be able to watch them fight to the death. Then, we'll be able to sit back and reap the benefits. "The Third Elder finally came to his senses and said excitedly.
"That's right. That's what we mean. So, we absolutely cannot send out our troops now.
Since there are already so many disloyal people in the world, we might as well let them fight on their own!
Also, we can take this opportunity to see which foreign dynasties are loyal to our Inner Dynasty and which ones are disloyal.
For those who are loyal to us, we will naturally reward them handsomely. As for those who betray us, let them perish in this' cleansing 'operation! "Fourth Elder said.
"Mm, that is indeed a good idea. This way, we can cleanse the world again without any effort! "Third Elder nodded. This was indeed a good idea.
Otherwise, if they really sent out their troops to these foreign dynasties, how many troops would they have to mobilize to suppress the foreign dynasties?
So, this was obviously impossible.
Let them fight on their own now. When there were only a few foreign dynasties left, they only needed to take them down.
Of course, if these foreign dynasties could fight to the death with the Sacred Dynasty first, it would be even easier for the Inner Dynasty. Not only could they get rid of these traitors who were not loyal to the Inner Dynasty, but they could also get rid of the Inner Dynasty's biggest problem. It was simply the best of both worlds.
"Great Elder, what do you think of this idea?" Fourth Elder asked with a smile.
"It's a good idea, but I don't know how effective it will be! And the most important thing now is that the world is in chaos. The Inner Dynasty has already lost control. How are we going to explain it to the Lord? "Great Elder said worriedly.
The Lord had always lived in Tianqiong Peak and almost never cared about the affairs inside and outside the Imperial Dynasty.
But this did not mean that they were in charge of everything in the Imperial Dynasty. In fact, they were just working for the Lord. It was just that the Lord had given all the power to them.
This also meant that the few of them were actually helping the Lord to manage the entire Imperial Dynasty.
But now that the Imperial Dynasty was in chaos, there were even so many foreign dynasties rising up and wantonly annexing other foreign dynasties to continuously strengthen themselves.
If the Lord knew about this matter, not only did they not manage the Imperial Dynasty well for him, but they also caused the Imperial Dynasty to fall into chaos. They really did not know how to explain it to the Lord.
"With such a big thing happening, I think it's unlikely that we can hide it even if we want to. Although the Lord never asks about the affairs inside and outside the Imperial Dynasty, I'm sure that the Lord knows everything that's happening inside and outside the Imperial Dynasty!
So we can't hide this matter anymore. Maybe we should take the initiative to report this matter to the Lord.
After all, this matter itself also involves the Sacred Dynasty. Even if we tell the truth, the Lord probably won't blame us! "Fifth Elder said.
"That's true. You should know that the Lord of the Sacred Dynasty is so strong that even the Lord couldn't kill him. Now he's using those foreign dynasties who are not loyal to the Lord to cause these things. It's also reasonable.
What's more, the Lord has fought with that guy before. He should understand that with that person around, it's only a matter of time before the Imperial Dynasty becomes like this! "Several elders spoke up to find the most reasonable excuse for themselves.
