The cultivators from the five aristocratic families were not as impatient as the people from the Black Sect, Martial Sect, and Seven Faction. When they found out that South Sky City was still as usual and had not been destroyed by the Three Sects and Seven Factions, they thought that they had come too early.
Therefore, they were not as anxious as the Three Sects and Seven Factions. Close to five thousand cultivators were stationed outside South Sky City. They took the initiative to greet Zhu Que, because they knew that there was still an existence beyond the Immortal Realm in South Sky City.
Even after greeting Zhu Que and confirming that Zhu Que would not make a move, they were still extremely cautious. Obviously, they were wary of Ye Tianze's reputation.
The leader was naturally a disciple of the Dugu Clan, and this person was Ye Tianze's old acquaintance, Dugu Moyu.
As the leader of the five aristocratic families, even if the Dugu Clan did not send out a magnate, the other four aristocratic families still followed the Dugu Clan's lead.
"Why haven't they attacked South Sky City yet? Don't tell me that the Dugu Clan doesn't want the Profound Magnetic Stones?"
"Zhu Que has already made it clear that she will not make a move, so why are they still so cautious? Isn't it just a magnate? Our five aristocratic families have joined forces, and we have five magnate. As long as we restrain that magnate from the Futian Clan, South Sky City will be easily conquered. "
"That's right. Things will be different when the people from the Three Sects and Seven Schools arrive. Originally, it was already a waste to divide the Profound Magnetic Stones among the five great clans. If the people from the Three Sects and Seven Schools arrive, it will be even less to divide."
In the camp of the five aristocratic families, there were complaints everywhere, but Dugu Moyu was very clear that Ye Tianze would never do something that he was not confident in.
Before he came, whether it was the head of the family, his brother, Dugu Nuoyan, or the head of the family, Dugu Tianyu, they had all warned him.
This time, when he came to South Sky City, he must not force himself. If he could not avoid it, he must not form a dead knot with South Sky City.
At first, Dugu Moyu had also thought that the head of the family and his elder brother were being overly cautious. No matter how strong Ye Tianze was, he was still only one person. Moreover, he hadn't even advanced to a champion yet.
Even if there was a Magnate here, the five clans were no pushovers. The other four clans were all experts above the Immortal King Realm, and there were almost a thousand Immortal Realm experts.
A single spit from each of them was enough to drown the entire South Sky City, not to mention the two Great Elders from the aristocratic families. They were both giants that surpassed the Immortal Realm. Dealing with a single South Sky City, wouldn't that be more than enough?
However, after arriving outside of South Sky City, Dugu Moyu changed all of his previous views. It wasn't that he was afraid of Ye Tianze. He was confident that with his current strength, even if he were to face Ye Tianze, he wouldn't be as fearful as before.
However, according to his understanding, this South Sky City was completely different from the South Sky City he knew. Whether it was Zhu Que's reply or the things that South Sky City revealed to the outside world, they all gave him a strong sense of crisis.
It was as if the South Sky City in front of him wasn't an ant, but a giant ancient beast with its mouth wide open, ready to swallow them at any time.
"Since you are all led by my Dugu Clan, then you must listen to us." Dugu Moyu said, "Right now, it's not the right time to attack South Sky City. I think we should first discuss with Ye Tianze before we make a decision."
"Discuss?" Everyone in the camp looked at Dugu Moyu in surprise.
"Young Master Dugu, could it be that you're scared out of your wits by Ye Tianze?"
"Yes, South Sky City is a barren land. No matter how strong Ye Tianze is, as long as we drag that Magnate out, the rest of the people are still at our mercy."
"Discuss? Hahahaha, Young Master Dugu, you must be joking. Our Five Great Clans were personally conferred by the Human Emperor and have a deep foundation. Aren't you afraid of losing face by discussing with a small power in South Sky City? "
The clansmen of the Five Great Clans all showed dissatisfaction. Their thoughts were almost the same as the Three Sects and Seven Schools.
He had never heard of negotiating terms with an ant. Even if he crushed the ant of South Sky City to death, what could the outside world say?
Dugu Moyu was under great pressure. His heart was actually very conflicted. First, he was worried that Ye Tianze had some tricks up his sleeve. But his brother and the head of the House were still in his heart.
Second, even if Yuxu Sect changed its name to South Sky City, even if it was conferred with the title of Lord by the Human Emperor, it was still an ant-like existence compared to the Three Sects and Seven Schools of the South.
However, Dugu Moyu had never treated Ye Tian Ze as an ant. Back at Zhou Tian City, someone who could make his older brother admit defeat, someone who could survive the joint assassination attempt of the Yellow Spring, several great aristocratic families, the Three Sects and Seven Schools, how could he be a mortal?
"No matter what, I don't agree to directly attack South Sky City!" Dugu Moyu hesitated for a long time, but finally made his decision. "No matter what, we have to be polite before resorting to force. At least we should talk to Ye Tianze first. With his strength, he shouldn't occupy such a magical weapon!"
When everyone heard this, their faces were full of disappointment.
A beautiful woman from a Great Clan said, "Dugu Moyu, you really disappoint me. I was so devoted to you, but you are actually like this!"
"Junior Gong, we are going to war with a Lord personally conferred by the Human Emperor, not destroy a small sect. We have to be careful. Moreover, before we came here, the head of the House and my brother said that we …" Dugu Moyu explained.
The woman in front of him was one of the Five Great Clans, the woman of the Gong Clan. Her name was Gong Yaping, and she was also the leader of the younger generation of the Gong Clan.
She used to admire Dugu Moyu, but after the battle in Zhou Tian City, her view of him had changed. From Dugu Moyu's point of view, he only had the Dugu Clan's sword in his heart, so Gong Yaping's change didn't attract his attention.
But when an admirer suddenly said such words to him, Dugu Moyu still couldn't accept it.
But when he thought of his brother Dugu Nuoyan's words, he calmed down. The men of the Dugu Clan, once they insisted on something, they would never change. This was also the highest point of using the sword.
"No need to say anymore!" The elder of the Gong Clan, the one who surpassed the Immortal Realm, interrupted him. "Our Four Great Clans have always followed the Dugu Clan's lead, but when it comes to this result, we didn't expect the Dugu Clan to be so cowardly. How can they be the head of the Five Great Clans?"
Dugu Moyu didn't say anything else. Looking at the mocking faces of the crowd, not only did he not change his mind, but he supported it even more.
He remembered that the head of the House had once told him that what the majority agreed to was not necessarily the truth!
And the scene in front of him was exactly what he had said before. He believed in the sword that would rather break than bend, and he only had a sword heart.
If he changed his original intention because of this, where would his sword heart go?
"My Dugu Clan has never claimed to be the head of the Five Great Clans. Since you all insist on having your own way, forgive my Dugu Clan for not accompanying you. Next, my Dugu Clan will be separated from the Four Great Clans. You all will go your own way, and we will cross our single-plank bridge!"
After Dugu Moyu finished speaking, he turned his head and glanced at the crowd, then left the camp.
This made the disciples of the Four Great Clans dumbstruck.
"I think he was scared silly by Ye Tianze in the previous battle. After all, even his brother admitted that he was defeated by Ye Tianze's sword."
"Yeah, the Dugu Clan is really too disappointing. Just one defeat, and they're already so cowardly. If this were to spread, wouldn't they become a joke?"
"The Five Great Clans are not worthless without the Dugu Clan. This time, we must get the Profound Lodestone before the Three Sects and Seven Schools, and kill that little bastard!"
The last person to speak was an authority from the Dutian Clan. This person was of the same generation as the head of the Dutian Clan, and his strength had already reached the Perfection Realm.
