The reason why Lu An was late was very simple. There was no teleportation array for Yue Rong to pass through, so he had to rush here from Ice and Fire City.
In fact, Lu An could ask the allied sects to help open the teleportation array, but now was a special time. Lu An did not want to cause trouble for the four sects. There was no benefit in meeting in advance, so it was better to talk directly. This way, the four sects could better face the other sects.
But because of this, Yue Rong's strength was directly exposed in front of everyone. Although the speed and aura that Yue Rong displayed just now was not too strong, it was definitely within the range of a ninth level Heavenly Master.
Ice and Fire Union … When did they have a ninth level Heavenly Master as a companion?
For a moment, no one looked at Lu An. Everyone's eyes were focused on Yue Rong. Yue Rong did not directly reveal her face. Instead, she wore a veil hat to cover her face. Moreover, there was an aura around her body that blocked the perception of the outside world. The people present could not even use their perception to copy her face.
But from the aura, there was no doubt that this woman was a human and not an illusion of a strange beast. Indeed, there were ninth level Heavenly Masters among humans who were not in the sects, but they were very few. Furthermore, they were all famous figures. Even if they were not in the sects, the sects clearly knew of their existence, but they did not have any impression of such a woman.
This woman … Even if she wore a veil hat, it was difficult to hide her beautiful appearance and seductive aura. Even if the men present were all ninth level Heavenly Masters, they were immediately aroused. Their blood vessels clearly became impetuous.
However, this woman clearly had no interest in the men present. She did not greet them like Lu An did. Seeing a few empty seats at the side, she directly walked over and sat down.
Seeing that everyone ignored him, Lu An did not say anything. He also walked to the side and sat down beside Yue Rong.
However, just as he sat down, someone opened his mouth.
"The coward is here?" Su Ke Ming said coldly, his cold eyes undisguised. Even if Lu An had a ninth level Heavenly Master by his side, he was not afraid at all. A mere person could not contend against a sect.
Yue Rong glanced at Su Ke Ming, but did not say anything. She did not want to fight today, and she was not the kind of person who wanted to protect Lu An. Unless Lu An's life was in danger, she would not easily make a move.
Lu An glanced at Su Keming, but it was only a glance. Then, he said to everyone again, "Seniors, you're all gathered here today because of the Dragon Clan's violation of the border. This matter started because of me, so I apologize to all of you."
With that, Lu An stood up again and bowed deeply to everyone present.
Seeing Lu An's attitude, many people's expressions eased a little, but they were still very serious. Apologizing was one thing, but the problem couldn't be solved.
Su Keming, who was ignored by Lu An, frowned and said, "You also know that this matter started because of you, so why do you want all of humanity to suffer? Why don't you go find the Dragons and settle it yourself? "
"The treasure has been absorbed by me. Unless I die, I won't be able to take it out," Lu An said honestly.
"Then you can go die!" Su Keming's voice was even louder as he shouted, "What? You are afraid of death, so you want everyone in the world to die for you? "
"I'm afraid of death." Lu An finally looked at Su Keming in the eyes and said, "But even if I die, this matter can't be solved. The Hachiko Clan didn't take action when the Dragons invaded. The top clans in the sea are ready to take action. Not long after that, they will attack the Eight Ancient Continents. "
"How do you know it can't be solved?" Su Keming sneered, mocking him. "What if it can be solved? You should die first. If you can't solve it after you die, then we will talk about it later. It has nothing to do with you. "
Many people nodded when they heard Su Keming. His words were rough, but his reasoning wasn't. It was true that everything had a priority. Lu An couldn't just ask everyone in the world to risk their lives for him without doing anything.
Lu An kept silent. He couldn't refute. The people of the four sects on the same side couldn't say anything. However, at this moment, someone suddenly spoke up, standing on Lu An's side.
It wasn't someone else, but Wang Yangcheng.
"We're all human beings, but we pushed our fellows to the other clans. Who's the coward after all?" Wang Yangcheng shouted coldly.
As soon as he said that, everyone turned to look at Wang Yangcheng. If the people of the Ice and Fire Union had spoken up, they would have retorted immediately. However, Wang Yangcheng was different. No matter if it was his competence or position, the people of the four sects couldn't compare to him. No one would mock or ridicule him.
However, they still objected. Su Keming looked at Wang Yangcheng and said, "Sect Master Wang, you're wrong. If Lu An hadn't taken the Dragons' top treasure, we wouldn't have needed to be in the right. As long as we weren't in the wrong, we would have protected our fellows. We wouldn't have handed Lu An over. But the problem is that Lu An took their treasure and didn't want to give it back. He was in the wrong. Should we help the evildoer to do evil? Wouldn't it mean that we humans are unreasonable? "
"But Lu An also said that he got the treasure by accident. Moreover, it was in his body and he couldn't take it out." Wang Yangcheng looked deeply at Su Keming and said, "You want to kill yourself to return the treasure you got by accident? I want to ask, who dares to search for treasure? How many of the treasures in your hands were excavated and forged by yourselves? Which one of the crystal cores in your weapons didn't come from powerful beasts? Which one of you returned them? You have the nerve to say such things? Not to mention that Lu An got it by accident. He didn't want to take it! "
"…"
Being reprimanded by Wang Yangcheng, Su Keming's face darkened. He wanted to refute, but he had nothing to say.
Wang Yangcheng's words not only made Su Keming's face turn ugly, but also all the Level Nine Heavenly Masters present. Most of their weapons and armor, as well as the elixirs they ate, came from the power of crystal cores. Moreover, they obtained them by killing people on purpose. Saying such words at this time was indeed deceiving themselves and slapping themselves in the face with double standards.
Everyone fell silent again. Lu An took a deep breath, looked at everyone, and said again, "Seniors, out of selfishness, this junior really doesn't want to die this time. It's useless to argue. If seniors insist on handing this junior over, this junior can only resist to the end. If seniors are willing to work together to fight against the strange beasts, the Ice Fire Alliance will definitely charge at the front and never back down. "
"…"
Hearing Lu An's words, the people of the various sects looked at each other and discussed with each other. In fact, before coming, the various sects had already thought of their positions. Everyone was smart. With the Dragons making a good start, it would be strange if the other top races didn't take the opportunity to make things difficult.
After a moment, Wang Yangcheng spoke again and said to everyone, "Why don't the various sects vote! The minority obeys the majority, or those in the minority who are unwilling to obey the majority, maintain a neutral attitude and don't interfere with the subsequent actions. "
Hearing Wang Yangcheng's words, the sect masters and sect masters of the various sects nodded one after another. Seeing this, Wang Yangcheng said, "Since everyone agrees, those who are willing to work together to fight against the enemy, raise your hand."
Then, Wang Yangcheng was the first to raise his hand.
This time, the person who raised his hand was not an individual, but the entire sect. Seeing this, the three deputy sect masters beside Wang Yangcheng also raised their hands helplessly. There was no choice. At the critical moment, only one person could make the decision. There could not be internal disagreements.
After Wang Yangcheng raised his hand, no one raised their hand for a moment, including the four sects on the same side as the Ice Fire Alliance. However, Lu An did not look at them to pressure them. Instead, he closed his eyes and waited quietly for the results.
After a few breaths, the Flower Moon Sect, Fiery Mountain Sect, Misty Rain Sect, and Thousand Shadow Sect raised their hands one after another to express their positions.
The five sects raised their hands. They were still in the minority.
Seeing this, Wang Yangcheng frowned and looked to the side. It was the two sects on the same side as the Yin Yang Divine Sect. When the two sects saw Wang Yangcheng looking at them, they immediately looked embarrassed.
"If the two of you don't agree, there is no need for us to form an alliance," Wang Yangcheng said directly.
As soon as he said this, everyone in the audience gasped. Especially the people from the two sects and the three deputy sect masters beside Wang Yangcheng. Nobody expected Wang Yangcheng to say such a thing!
Although the Six Paths Sect and the Immortal Crane Sect were not weak, there was still a big gap between them and the Yin Yang Divine Sect. If the Yin Yang Divine Sect left the alliance, the two sects would directly become the weakest among all the factions. The final result was obvious. They would very likely be the first to be eliminated among all the sects!
Helpless, after a few breaths, the sect masters and sect masters of the two sects could only raise their hands. However, they were very unwilling.
However, after the two sects raised their hands, silence followed.
