“Esteemed patriarchs, my two junior sisters are still young and naive, and have been deceived by wicked people.”
"Now they've been so deceived that they've cut off my cultivation and want to join the demon race."
"I hope that my master will spare no effort and exhaustion for the sake of humanity and save my two junior sisters from the sea of fire."
Inside the headquarters of the Dao Alliance.
Jin Renfeng stood in the council hall, looking at the heads of various noble families before him, his expression sorrowful, and tearfully accused Lin Yu of his evil deeds.
His sincere and earnest manner left no room for doubt about his true feelings.
But how much of that sincerity lies beneath those feigned expressions remains unknown.
"This is outrageous! The old hero from the East has dedicated his life to the human race, sacrificing his life for them. How can he be treated like this in the end?"
A patriarch of a prominent family slammed his hand on the table and said in a deep voice.
"That's right, we must rescue the old hero from the East and his two daughters no matter what."
"Absolutely! Lin Yu has acted recklessly and arrogantly, relying on his formidable strength. This lad harbors wolfish ambitions and must not be allowed to live!"
"Yes! They must not be allowed to live!"
Sitting in the main seat, Butler Fei looked at the indignant crowd before him, remaining silent and not participating in their discussion. Only a faint trace of sorrow flashed in his slightly narrowed eyes.
These family heads speak righteously on the surface, but how could he not know what they are actually thinking?
Because of the Wangquan Sword, the Wangquan family is basically able to maintain its lineage as long as the members are not too incompetent.
But other aristocratic families are different.
Therefore, no one could resist the temptation of the opportunities brought by Jin Renfeng.
Especially since this opportunity is so good.
The Xiao family's plan failed mainly because the potential profits were insufficient.
It could only entice the interest of six powerful families.
This time, all the powerful families will take action because of their Eastern bloodline, which can be said to be the mobilization of the entire Dao Alliance's power.
Butler Fei didn't think Lin Yu would have any chance to struggle.
Even if the other party has a demon emperor behind them.
Without the power of heaven and earth, a demon emperor is merely someone to be feared.
With the discussions among the family heads, everything went very smoothly, and in a short time, everything was settled.
We must stop Lin Yu before he leaves human territory.
Even if it means going to Tushan, I will bring the Dongfang Huaizhu sisters back!
The news spread quickly, and under one order after another, the entire Dao Alliance became like a machine running at full speed, beginning to fully reveal its fangs.
Unlike the previous minor skirmishes, this time, the major families have joined forces, and a storm is about to break.
Southern country.
It has been some time since we left the human realm and entered the southern lands.
The group from the Masked Organization continued to pursue the clues they had.
However, the southern kingdom is vast, and despite their considerable efforts, they still haven't made much progress.
However, none of them were discouraged, after all, their opponent was a demon emperor, who was not so easy to deal with.
"With a sigh, let's continue the pursuit. I have a feeling we're not far from our target."
Wang Quanba Ye stood on his flying sword, flying rapidly through the sky, and said to Yang Yitan beside him.
"If we go any deeper, we'll be entering the heart of the Southern Kingdom, and any slight movement there will attract the attention of the Southern Kingdom."
Yang Yitan frowned, a divine fire flickering in his eyes, and spoke solemnly to Wang Quanba.
"Now that things have come to this point, and we've already come this far, it's impossible to just give up like this."
Wang Quanba shook his head, his expression resolute.
"But."
Yang Yi sighed, thinking of Huan Du Qingtian, the Poison Emperor of the Southern Kingdom, and still felt somewhat worried.
He wasn't afraid of the other side, but he didn't want their unauthorized actions to cause conflict between the two countries.
If that were the case, countless people would die because of the war, and they would become the culprits behind all of this.
"Wait, news has come from home."
At this moment, Li Quzhuo suddenly called out to everyone, and said in a surprised tone.
Upon hearing this, everyone was about to look over when they all discovered that the magical artifacts they used for communication were also sending messages.
Faced with this situation, everyone felt a chill in their hearts. Could it be that something had happened to the Dao Alliance?
The group, including Wang Quanba Ye, quickly began to investigate.
They were stunned when they saw it.
The fact that Lin Yu used sweet words to bewitch the Dongfang Huaizhu sisters and take Dongfang Guyue away came to mind.
This news left the group of people momentarily stunned.
"You're not kidding, are you?"
Ji Wuji muttered to himself, subconsciously looking up at the crowd, as if wanting an explanation.
To his regret, everyone looked at each other, their faces filled with shock and bewilderment.
Although Shenhuoshan Manor was established not long ago, its status and prestige are in no way inferior to those of the Wangquan family.
Yet this very entity has now been almost entirely wiped out by Lin Yu.
Senior Brother Jin Renfeng lost his Pure Yang Flame, causing his strength to plummet.
The remaining three were taken away by Lin Yu, and their whereabouts are unknown.
In other words, the once renowned Shenhuoshan Manor has become a mere shell of its former self in this short period of time!
How can anyone accept this so quickly?
It was as if they had suddenly heard of the downfall of the royal family, which was hard to believe.
"Our family is telling us to go back immediately, saying they want to unite all the powerful families to completely eliminate Lin Yu and deal with the two daughters of the Dongfang family."
Li Zizai spoke in a deep voice with a solemn expression.
"How could this be? What happened while we were away? How could Shenhuo Mountain Manor be so easily destroyed by Lin Yu?"
Aoki Hime said in disbelief, still unable to understand what was going on.
"Then what do we do now?"
Deng Qiyue suddenly spoke.
They ventured to the Southern Kingdom because they discovered traces of the former ruler of Tushan, Feng Qi.
After tracking them all the way, the distance between them and the other party had been shortened considerably, but this happened at this crucial moment.
"Should we continue pursuing this? But what about home?"
Wang Quanzui hesitated at this moment. The fact that all the major families could send messages to them at the same time, urging them to return, meant that the situation was definitely more serious than they knew.
Faced with the gazes of the crowd, Wang Quanba hesitated for a moment.
However, before he could hesitate for long, another message arrived.
This time it wasn't news from the family, but from Mu Shenqi.
After reading the message, Wang Quanba pondered for a moment, looked into the distance, and finally spoke slowly.
"go back."
“Shenqi just messaged me saying that he also received the message and has a more reliable way to deal with Lin Yu, and he needs our help.”
"That Fengqi"
Zhang Zheng frowned.
"give up."
"Time is of the essence. We need to go back first and then contact Shenqi. If any trouble arises now, we might not be able to help Lin Yu at all."
After much deliberation, Wang Quanba Ye announced his decision.
If this incident hadn't happened, continuing to investigate would naturally be the best course of action.
But now, it's still a question whether they can take down Fengqi with 100% certainty. If they let the enemy escape and they themselves are injured, it will definitely not be worth it.
With the entire Dao Alliance joining forces this time, capturing Lin Yu is practically a sure thing, and there's no need to create any unnecessary complications.
It's better to conserve your energy so that you can contribute more and make fewer sacrifices later.
"Since you've already made up your mind, let's go back."
"I've really had enough of this environment in the South."
Having decided to leave, the group naturally didn't linger and disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye.
