Inside the tranquil gigantic gourd, a Realm Master dressed in green with black hair sat quietly on a vine seat.
Below, were hundreds of important Realm Tree officials.
Prime Minister Rong Muke was currently cupping his fists and bowing as he spoke.
"It is reported that the All Empty Sect has already joined forces with the experts of the Sword Seeking Sect, Luotong Sect and the Star Sword Pavilion to construct a Realm Crossing Bridge, in order to forcefully cross the border and enter my Wanhua Realm. This subordinate predicts that they will arrive at the Wanhua Realm's Gate of Nature in seven days."
As soon as he finished speaking, the officials began to stir.
"They actually joined forces with four big sects to deal with our Wanhua Realm … What are the people from All Empty Sect trying to do?"
"Is this pressure on us?"
"Although our Wanhua Realm can't compare to the Sword World, we are still an independent realm. They are just a few sects, could it be that they want to destroy our Wanhua Realm?"
"Realm Master, although our Wanhua Realm advocates peace, we cannot use words to maintain peace. This way, it will only make others feel that our Wanhua Realm is easy to bully." A middle aged woman stood out, cupped her fists and said: "Realm Master, do you still remember why we issued a ban, forbidding people from other realms from entering the Wanhua Realm? It is precisely because after they entered the realm, they wantonly destroyed and ignored the laws, causing indelible scars to our Wanhua Realm. But what was the root cause of this? It is precisely because the people of the other realms think that the people of our Wanhua Realm will not easily kill, that even if they violate the law, they can still get away with it, which is why we are in such a situation today. Realm Master, I think that we should organize an even stronger army to expel the people from the outside world, there is no need for a place like the Linglong Mountain! "
As soon as he said this, a group of people immediately echoed him.
"Lord Liu is right, if we continue, those arrogant people will only become more arrogant!"
"We have to show them some tricks and make an example of them!"
The crowd was excited.
Realm Master did not say a word.
Seeing that, Rong Muke shook his head: "Lord Liu's words are too serious! Once we do this, our Wanhua Realm will lose its foundation. "
"Does the Prime Minister still have any concerns?" The woman called Lord Liu asked.
"Of course." Rong Muke said indifferently: "According to reports, the True Devil Realm has already received the news that the All Empty Sect is attacking our Wanhua Realm. Although the True Devil Realm did not make a move, I am very worried that they will interfere at this time. I think that it would be best if we could not fight with the All Empty Sect, otherwise, once the two sides start fighting, it would be uncontrollable."
"True Devil Realm!" Lord Liu gritted his teeth and said angrily, "This bunch of bastards, only seeking profit. They are all despicable people. If I had divine powers, I would definitely exterminate them!"
"True Devil Realm is not filled with evil people, the ones who are harassing my Wanhua Realm are just a few of the evil forces, if the True Devil Realm has any movements, why can't we ask for some external help? After all, these evil people are public enemies, "an old man stood up and said.
"That's right, we can also invite some sects and powers to deal with the people of All Empty Sect. Lord Liu, we cannot touch the people of Linglong Mountain, who knows, we might have to rely on the various sects and clans in Linglong Mountain for this matter!"
"Humph, will they help? Those are all outsiders, they only care about themselves. "Lord Liu said coldly.
"You can't say it like that. Now that they are also living in the Wanhua Realm, they are already on the same boat. Now that the Wanhua Realm is in danger, how can they just stand by and watch?"
"That's what you say, but the human heart is unpredictable …"
… ….
The group of officials argued and their opinions were endless. Even Rong Muke would interject from time to time, causing the scene to be extremely noisy.
However, after discussing for a long time, they still could not come up with a suitable decision. It was truly worrisome.
However, the Realm Master was still sitting calmly on the fishing platform, quietly looking at the officials below. She did not speak, nor did she have any expression, as if she was thinking about something, causing others to be unable to guess what she was thinking.
"Report!"
Just then, a soldier dressed in green armor rushed in from the gourd. The soldier looked flustered, he quickly rushed over and knelt in front of the Realm Master.
"What is it?"
The Realm Master finally spoke. Her voice was clear and melodious, giving the noisy gourd a voice that was as clear as a spring.
However, what the soldier said next made no one in the mood to appreciate his pleasant voice.
"Reporting to Realm Master, there is news from the Sword World that the Cloud Heavenly Palace is involved in this matter. The thirteenth elder of the Heavenly Palace, Jin Moluo, has brought a total of nine thousand experts and disciples of the Heavenly Palace to the place where the All Empty Sect is setting up the bridge.
The soldier shouted with a trembling voice. Almost as soon as he opened his mouth, the entire audience quieted down.
After the news was reported, the entire audience was still terrifyingly quiet. It was as if a strand of hair would make a loud sound when it landed on the ground. Everyone stared at the soldier in a daze for a long time … It was difficult to recover from his shock …
"Cloud Heavenly Palace?"
The middle-aged woman called Lord Liu's mouth was knotted as she shouted in a trembling voice, "You're talking about … Is it really Cloud Heavenly Palace?"
"Yes."
The soldier's face was deathly pale, and his voice was trembling: "This subordinate did not believe it at first, and asked again and again. That brother said that he stared at it for a full hour, and was sure that it was indeed someone from Cloud Heavenly Palace …"
Everyone was shocked.
"This time …" This is bad! "
"I never thought that the people from Cloud Heavenly Palace would actually interfere in this matter …"
"Realm Master, what should we do now?"
Cries of alarm rang out continuously. At this moment, not many people were talking about resisting anymore. Instead, they were all panicking.
It could be seen how powerful Cloud Heavenly Palace was!
"All Empty Sect's Sect Leader Xiao Changtian's wife is called Phoenix Lady, and it is said that she came from this Cloud Heavenly Palace, and this Thirteenth Elder is called Jin Moluo, could it be that this Phoenix Lady has some sort of relationship with Jin Moluo?" Rong Muke said solemnly: "Xiao Huailin is Phoenix Lady's son, it is not surprising that Cloud Heavenly Palace would make a move."
Following the soldier's report, the boiling gourd cavern gradually quietened down. Everyone was silent, their heads lowered, as if they were thinking about something. The atmosphere was extremely strange and tense, and an uneasy feeling surrounded everyone.
"Realm Master … If we have Cloud Heavenly Palace's help, I'm afraid … It will be extremely difficult for us to contend against him. "Rong Muke cupped his fists:" Cloud Heavenly Palace is also famous in the Sword World, no one can compete with him. With the involvement of this sect, I'm afraid the nature will be different … "
"Prime Minister, what do you think we should do?" Realm Master looked at Rong Muke and spoke softly.
Rong Muke bit his lower lip, and said: "If it was only the All Empty Sect and the other powers that had interfered previously, there was a high possibility that we could have argued, and even a battle with them was not without confidence. But now that the Cloud Heavenly Palace has interfered, the nature of the battle has changed, we argue … No, fight … Even more so, now that things have come to this, there is only one way …" Speaking till here, Rong Muke stopped talking.
Realm Master looked at him, and said indifferently: "You mean to compromise with them?"
"Other than that, it's hard to avoid swords and weapons." Rong Muke said.
"But if that's the case, then we have to hand over the person who killed Xiao Huailin." Realm Master said softly: "This is extremely unfair to her, everyone knows what Xiao Huailin has done in my Wanhua Realm, she killed Xiao Huailin, but in reality, she stopped him from doing whatever he wanted, and protected the peace of the Wanhua Realm."
"But if we do not hand her over, the Wanhua Realm will not be at peace." Rong Muke sighed.
Realm Master was silent again.
After a long while, she raised her head and said indifferently: "You guys can leave first, this matter …" Let me think about it. "
Seeing that, everyone looked at each other in dismay. In the end, they cupped their fists and bowed before retreating.
The group of people left the mouth of the gourd while whispering to each other. However, it was clear that everyone still had worried and nervous expressions on their faces.
The arrival of the Cloud Heavenly Palace was like a blow to the head, making them feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Master Rong Muke, what should we do now? Looking at the Realm Master, it seemed like she did not plan to hand over the murderer who killed Xiao Huailin! If that's the case, wouldn't our Wanhua Realm suffer a great calamity?
"An important official quickly walked over and said to Rong Muke worriedly.
However, Rong Muke could not help but shake his head, and said indifferently: "Realm Master will have his own plans, everyone, do not worry too much."
With that, he ignored the Realm Tree officials and quickly walked away with his head lowered.
When the group of ministers saw this, they were puzzled.
As for the important official, he was even more helpless.
"From the looks of it, Master Rong Muke also supports the Realm Master, and does not want to hand over the murderer who killed Xiao Huailin." The people at the side looked at Rong Muke who was walking further and further away, and said indifferently.
"If we hand it over, our Wanhua Realm's reputation might not be preserved."
"But if we do not hand it over, the one who will not be able to protect is our Wanhua Realm! Compared to the Wanhua Realm, what is so important about a mere reputation? "
"At this point, arguing about this is useless. We will definitely not be able to beat them, but if the Realm Master is not willing to compromise, what else can we do?"
"Once the war starts, we will definitely not be a match for the people of Cloud Heavenly Palace. I'm afraid that when the time comes, there will be a lot less of us here."
"Little? If the other party is angry, I'm afraid we will all be killed by the people of Cloud Heavenly Palace! "
"Sigh, what should we do?"
The group of people gathered together, discussing and sighing. Helpless voices rose and fell one after another.
"Hey, everyone, since the Realm Master is not willing to compromise, why don't we compromise …" How about it? "
At this moment, a man with a crew cut and a scar at the corner of his eye said in a low voice.
Everyone looked towards the source of the voice and realized that the person who spoke was the newly appointed Realm Tree Imperial Guard Captain, Ju Gu.
The Imperial Guard Captain was the person in charge of the defensive forces around the Realm Tree. The previous Imperial Guard Captain had died due to an accident during a mission, and Ju Gu had taken over. Ju Gu had been transferred from elsewhere, so no one was familiar with him.
However, at this juncture, Ju Gu's words had shocked everyone.
"Compromise? Ju Gu, what do you want to do? "Lord Liu said coldly, as if he was disgusted by this person.
Ju Gu smiled slightly: "My lords, I know that all of you are thinking for the Wanhua Realm, and do not wish for the Wanhua Realm to start a war with the other powers. Since this matter can be avoided, why can't we avoid it? Don't you know why the Realm Master is unwilling to accept Prime Minister Rong Muke's compromise? Hehe, the reason is actually very simple, she just can't let go of her face, she is afraid that the people of the other realms will criticize her, so she doesn't agree, but what if we bear this infamy? "
When Ju Gu's words fell, everyone was stunned. Very quickly, everyone understood what Ju Gu meant …
