While Yun Lintian was busy with the profound skyship, the outside world was in turmoil. The news about Tianqi Zongwei had been spreading to ordinary people's ears.
More and more practitioners from various continents didn't hesitate to set sailing toward the Western Continent as they believed the Nine Profound Beast Palace was unstable right now. This was an excellent opportunity for them to seek fortunes.
Inside the Nine Profound City, several top figures were gathering in a spacious hall led by Tianqi Junlai. Except for the Great Roc Clan, the Fire Cloud Rat Clan, and the Golden Python Clan, all the representatives of the remaining nine clans were presented. Even the usually absent Crimson Ox Clan was also here.
"I believe everyone is aware of our current situation. Humans are constantly pouring into our continent. This is unacceptable. Especially the Myriad Pill Palace. They are openly challenging our authority." Tianqi Junlai said solemnly as he looked at everyone in the hall.
On his left side, a handsome young man with two majestic horns on his head turned to Tianqi Junlai and said politely. "Patriarch Tianqi, since the initiator of this incident is the young man named Mu Chen. As long as we capture him, everything will be solved. I suggest everyone send people out to look for him as soon as possible… Of course, this is only my humble opinion. I believe that Patriarch Tianqi has a solution in his heart already."
He was the eldest young master of the Crimson Ox Clan, Hongniu Wushang. He was sent to participate in this meeting showed how high his prestige was among the clan. If there was no mistake, he would definitely succeed in the patriarch position in the near future.
Tianqi Junlai nodded slightly and looked at the others. "Any opinion?"
Bi Xian glanced at Hongniu Wushang briefly and turned to Tianqi Junlai. "Since when the Nine Profound Beast Palace has to bow our head to outsiders?"
Tianqi Junlai frowned. "What do you mean, Matriarch Bi? We haven't made a decision yet."
Bi Xian smiled faintly. "Patriarch Tianqi, we have 6 representatives here. Matriarch Yu and I are the ones who surely vote against this idea. Do you really think it's necessary to ask everyone's opinion further?"
Sitting opposite her, Lang Mo said nothing. Before he came here, his father, Lang Moxie, kept reminding him to stand on Bi Xian's side, but he would rather look at the situation first.
On the side, Yu Rongxi looked at Tianqi Junlai without a word. The meaning in her eyes was clear. She agreed with Bi Xian's opinion.
"Master, are they going to deal with Brother Huoyun?" Sitting beside Yu Rongxi, Yu Jiao'er asked through a sound transmission. Last time, she chased after Yun Lintian, but her speed was too low. She could only give up and return to her master.
"The information said he's likely to possess the Tree of Life. There's no way these greedy people would let him go." Yu Rongxi replied calmly.
"Hmph! These people are too hateful." Yu Jiao'er puffed angrily.
Hongniu Wushang looked straight at Bi Xian and said with a polite smile on his face. "I understand you have some relationships with him, but we've done this for thousands of years. I believe Matriarch Bi will respect the traditional rule."
"Furthermore, my suggestion gives the most benefit for us as a whole. Not only this Mu Chen is likely to have the legendary Tree of Life with him, but his existence is also a threat to us. From the information I got, he has the ability to fight the peak of the Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm powerhouse. With this strength, I'm afraid we would end up becoming his slave later."
"That's right! Don't forget that he's a human. It's impossible for him to let us go. Also, we should expel the Fire Cloud Rat Clan from the palace since they dared to conspire with him to deceive us all." Zi Jinghu added without hesitation.
His hatred toward Huoyun Yurou didn't reduce in the slightest even though she had already passed away. If it was possible, he wanted to kill every single one of the Fire Cloud Rat clan members.
Bi Xian took a deep look at Hongniu Wushang and said nothing.
"What about you, Patriarch Lang? I heard that Senior Lang was there on the scene. I wonder what is his opinion on this matter?" Tianqi Junlai turned to look at Lang Mo.
Lang Mo glanced at everyone and said directly. "He stands on Mu Chen's side."
His words surprised everyone in the scene. If this was the case, the votes today must be equaled, and they wouldn't be able to find a conclusion today.
"I see." Tianqi Junlai said in a deep voice. He seemed to think of something and said further. "Since we cannot find a conclusion today, let's dismiss first and wait for Patriarch Jin and Patriarch Pei to come."
"Why are you so hurrying to leave?" All of a sudden, Du Huanfeng's voice resounded from the outside, and his figure slowly entered everyone's vision.
Tianqi Junlai frowned slightly and said. "You shouldn't come here."
"Why? Is this place a dragon cave or something?" Du Huanfeng said in a carefree manner, making everyone wonder where his confidence came from.
"It's been a while, Patriarch Tianqi." Du Jinfei's figure slowly appeared beside Du Huanfeng. His appearance caused Tianqi Yi and Tianqi Er to reveal themselves and stand behind Tianqi Junlai vigilantly.
"It turns out to be Senior Du." Even though he said so, Tianqi Junlai wasn't surprised about this at all. "Since Senior is here, I will speak directly. I think Senior should bring your young master back to the Central Continent immediately. What do you think?"
Du Jinfei raised his hand to prevent Du Huanfeng from speaking and said. "We're here to discuss this matter with everyone."
"Oh?" Tianqi Junlai's brows raised slightly.
Du Jinfei looked at everyone and said. "We are willing to share half of the Tree of Life with everyone here…."
"Don't you think it's a bit ridiculous, Senior?" Tianqi Junlai interrupted. "I believe we have no reason to share it with you since he's now wandering on this continent. It's a matter of time before we could capture him."
Du Jinfei chuckled and said. "Trust me, you will."
