Intelligence?
Everyone's heart skipped a beat. The relaxed and joking expressions on their faces disappeared and turned solemn.
After experiencing so much, they were now afraid of hearing the word 'intelligence'. Intelligence meant action and every action would result in casualties. Compared to the casualties, even if they were forced to hide underground, they were lucky enough to be able to survive.
But since He Youyu had spoken, they couldn't ignore him. Yin Yang Divine Sect core elder Bian Zhan asked, "What intelligence?"
He Youyu looked at Bian Zhan, then at the crowd, "One of our Hidden Sky Sect's resource territories has been occupied by strange beasts. They belong to two first-rate races."
Resource territories were occupied?
Everyone frowned and looked at each other. Bian Zhan took a deep breath and said, "Elder He, all the resource territories have been occupied by strange beasts. It's the same for everyone."
Many sect elders nodded. That was the truth. Other than the resource territories that were hidden and hard to discover, the rest of the resource territories had been occupied by strange beasts in broad daylight. After experiencing so much, all the sects had given up on fighting for resource territories. The number of people in the sects was already low enough and they couldn't afford to suffer any more casualties. The meaning behind Bian Zhan's words was obvious. The sect alliance wouldn't take action for a sect's resource territories.
But He Youyu didn't stop talking. He looked at Bian Zhan and continued, "Our Hidden Sky Sect's other resource territories have been occupied. Under normal circumstances, I wouldn't say anything. But we realized that the two strange beasts that occupied the resource territories were abnormal. Their emotions were unstable. Not only did they destroy the illusion, they even started killing each other. I would like to ask everyone, have you encountered such a situation before? "
Destroying resource territories? Killing each other?
Everyone was astonished. This was indeed strange. Every sect's resource territories were extremely rich. It was the same for strange beasts. Any race that they encountered should be protected and used well. Why would they destroy and even kill each other?
Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads. They had never encountered such a situation before. Among the crowd, there was only one person who pretended to be conversing with others. But her heart was heavy.
It was none other than Xu Yunyan.
Destroying the environment and killing each other. It sounded like they had lost their minds. And the biggest possibility for such a situation to occur was the Fishy Mountain Lunar Red Rock!
As Liu Yi's confidant and the Great Elder of the Ice and Fire Union, Xu Yunyan was qualified to know about the Bloody Mountain's Red Moon Stone. She also knew what the Red Mountain Moonstone meant to Sengoku. It was something that they had to collect and protect. She knew the news about the Hidden Sky Sect and the Red Stone of the Bloody Mountain. The Ice and Fire League didn't do anything in the past four months because Lu An wasn't here. Liu Yi didn't want to cause more trouble. However, now that the Hidden Heaven Sect had taken the initiative to speak about the Bloody Mountain's Crimson Moon Stone, their intentions were hard to fathom!
Everyone knew about the relationship between Lu An and Sengoku. What was He Youyu trying to do?
"Could it be that the Wonder Beast Clan is fighting for power internally?" someone asked. "After all, this sort of thing is very common among the Wonder Beast Clan."
Many people nodded. They had all thought of this. However, He Youyu opened his mouth again and said, "We don't think so, because these strange beasts seem to attack indiscriminately. Moreover, they would destroy the corpses to vent their anger. Their methods are very cruel."
"…"
Hearing this, everyone took a deep breath. Their eyes became more solemn. Destroying the corpses wasn't something that would be done normally. Whipping the corpses was a very cruel act. Normal humans and strange beasts wouldn't do such a thing. It was simply against their nature. What was going on with such a large scale?
At this moment, someone suddenly spoke. It wasn't anyone else but the Great Elder of the Flower Moon Sect, Li Yin!
Li Yin took a deep breath and said in a heavy tone, "This situation … It sounds like something that happened on the east coast of the continent!"
As soon as he said this, everyone immediately looked at Li Yin. Li Yin's words made them realize what he was talking about. It was a mission that the Six Sects and the Ice and Fire Union had carried out in the Eight Ancient Continent and the North First Sea Area. At that time, they had received the news that a large number of countries and cities along the coast were killing each other. Although most of the Sects didn't participate in the mission, they had a lot of information. They even knew the details of the mission clearly.
Especially in the end, the six sects and the Ice and Fire Union encountered 20 bloody men together. The bloody men could release blood beasts, and their powerful strength was not something the sects could contend against. It was Lu An who released her Immortal Qi and forcefully attracted all the bloody men and blood beasts away with her own strength that gave the sects time to escape. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable!
The Ye Fire Sect, which had participated in the mission, had already left the Alliance. However, the other Sects who had participated in the mission still remembered it deeply. The five people who were in charge of the mission were sitting here. Zhong Weiping of the Mysterious Lofty Sect, Liu Zhong of the Mysterious Heaven Sect, Xu He of the Heavenly Sect, and Liang Duo of the Six Paths Sect. The four of them still felt fear when they recalled the scene that night. If such a thing really happened among the strange beasts, the scene would be extremely bloody!
Xu He of the Heavenly Sect said, "I will never forget what I saw that night!"
Everyone frowned when they heard this. Although they didn't experience it, they could imagine the extent of it just by looking at their reactions. Huang Tao of the Earth Sect spoke again, "Since the strange beasts are killing each other, it's a good thing for us. Let them kill each other. If it's really contagious, then let them continue to infect. The more they infect, the better. It's best if they can infect all the strange beasts on the continent. Let them kill each other, then we'll have a chance to see the light of day again. "
Everyone nodded in agreement. Strange beasts killing each other was only beneficial to them. There were no disadvantages.
He Youyu of the Hidden Heaven Sect didn't say anything else. He even nodded slightly in agreement. It was as if his goal was only to reveal this matter.
Soon, the meeting ended. Xu Yunyan didn't stay at the headquarters for long. She immediately returned to the Alliance Conference and told Liu Yi about what He Youyu said.
In the office, Liu Yi listened to Xu Yunyan's description of the entire incident. Her eyes narrowed and became very serious.
It was obvious that He Youyu's words were meant for the Ice Fire Alliance.
Needless to say, the other sects couldn't wait for the strange beasts to kill each other. They wouldn't do anything. Only the Ice Fire Alliance, which was related to Sengoku, could interfere. The Hidden Heaven Sect had a warehouse that stored the Bloody Mountain Red Moon Stone. The strange beasts being affected must be the Hidden Heaven Sect's doing. Then, they would use this to lure the Ice Fire Alliance into action. Most importantly … they would lure Lu An into action!
Liu Yi frowned. It seemed like the Hidden Heaven Sect was more anxious than her.
Perhaps Lu An's four-month seclusion made the Hidden Heaven Sect feel uneasy and pressured. After all, if Lu An became a Level Nine Heavenly Master, it would be too difficult for the Hidden Heaven Sect to capture Lu An to study the safe use of death energy. They had to act when Lu An was still a Level Eight Heavenly Master. To the Hidden Heaven Sect, this was most likely the most important matter since its establishment. For this, the Hidden Heaven Sect was willing to gamble. Even if this would expose them, even if the Karmic Fire Sect and Guang You Clan were precedents, they were still willing to gamble!
"Alliance Master." Xu Yunyan looked at Liu Yi and asked, "What should we do?"
"There's no need to act rashly." Liu Yi said, "To affect two first-rate clans, the Hidden Heaven Sect will definitely take out many Bloody Mountain Red Moon Stones. However, they definitely won't dare to use the Bloody Mountain Red Moon Stones to expand the area of influence. They won't do so either. This situation will continue until Lu An returns. "
"Understood." Xu Yunyan immediately nodded. After pondering for a moment, she asked, "Then … Princess Yao's side …"
"You don't have to worry about it." Liu Yi said, "You don't have to hide it from her. I will tell her."
"Understood." Xu Yunyan nodded again and left the office.
Liu Yi was the only one left in the empty room. She furrowed her brows and pondered. Plans flashed through her mind one after another.
With the Hidden Heaven Sect taking the initiative to make a move, this was also a good opportunity for the Ice Fire Alliance. Otherwise, if the Ice Fire Alliance took the initiative to communicate with the Hidden Heaven Sect, it would appear too deliberate and cause the Hidden Heaven Sect to be suspicious. As long as they made use of it properly, this was a good opportunity to capture He Youyu, interrogate the warehouse, and destroy the Hidden Heaven Sect in one fell swoop. For this, she was even willing to use the power of the Celestial Alliance.
Of course … the prerequisite for all of this was that Lu An had to return.
