Chapter 677 Agreemen (2/2)
Peak master Lianyi’s eyes grew as deep as a silent pool as she said, “What does Sheng Yuan want? If he wants a fight, the Cangxuan Sect has already restrained ourselves for many years, and it’s about time for some grudges to be properly settled.”
Sect master Qing Yang waved his hand and said, “Although he finds the Cangxuan Sect to be a thorn in his eyes, he also understands that a clash would only leave both parties gravely injured, allowing others to take advantage.
“However, he insists that Zhou Yuan has humiliated the Sacred Palace and has to be punished for it. Hence, he made an agreement with me: in the war between the Great Zhou and Great Wu Empires, the Sacred Palace and the Cangxuan Sect cannot send any Divine Dwelling stage and above experts.”
The other peak masters were taken aback. “Cannot send any Divine Dwelling stage and above experts? What are his intentions?”
Sect master Qing Yang slowly explained, “In order words, the Sacred Palace will not allow Zhou Yuan to return to the Cangmang Continent. As long as he leaves the sect, he will be endlessly attacked by the Sacred Palace disciples.”
Zhou Yuan’s eyes instantly turned frosty. If he did not return, the Great Zhou Empire would definitely not be the Great Wu Empire’s match.
Although he was basically invincible within the Alpha-Origin stage, the outcome of being attacked by endless waves of Sacred Palace disciples would not be pretty.
At the end of the day, the Sacred Palace intended to aid Wu Huang.
Was it because of what he had done in the Mythic Utopia?
Below, Chu Qing rubbed his shiny bald head as he said with a smile, “Since sect master has said that the Divine Dwelling stage and above are forbidden from interfering, we should be within the permissible range, right?”
Sect master Qing Yang softly chuckled and did not deny it.
Chu Qing instantly understood. He looked towards Zhou Yuan and said, “When junior brother Zhou Yuan leaves, the disciples of our Cangxuan Sect will follow and protect you along the way to the Cangmang Continent.”
Zhou Yuan pursed his lips. He did not say anything, but solemnly cupped his fists together towards Chu Qing and the rest.
He knew that when the disciples from both sects clashed, a bloody storm that would shock the entire Shengzhou Continent would surely follow.
Peak master Lianyi icily said, “Sheng Yuan clearly wants to vent his anger on Zhou Yuan and not bring things to an irreversible stage. He’s truly petty for a sect master.”
The other peak masters did not say anything. Although they did not fear a fight to the death, the consequences were indeed far too dire. It would naturally be best to avoid such a situation.
“Zhou Yuan, when do you plan on leaving?” asked sect master Qing Yang.
Zhou Yuan pondered for a moment before he answered, “I will first use the next few days to master the Mythic Saint Body before departing.”
Sect master Qing Yang nodded. “Since you practice the little Mythic Saint Body, you should be able to quickly master the Mythic Saint Body and become even stronger.”
He too understood that Zhou Yuan would have to soon face a tough battle. Every bit of strength he gained now would increase his chances.
“Everyone should go and prepare. Today is a joyous occasion for our Cangxuan Sect, so let the disciples let loose a little.”
Sect master Qing Yang waved his hand.
The peak masters bid their farewells, while Zhou Yuan, Chu Qing and the others withdrew from the official discussion hall.
When everyone left, sect master Qing Yang lifted his head. His eyes turned as deep as the night.
