Ye Cheng led everyone back to Kunlun Mountain.
The first thing upon returning to Kunlun Mountain.
Ye Cheng reported the matter to True Lord Ye Xie.
After hearing about it, Ye Xie also became cautious, immediately summoning his clan members to gather in the grand hall of Kunlun Mountain.
He also called the Sect Master of Kunlun Mountain and several core members of Kunlun Mountain.
…
In the grand hall of Kunlun Mountain.
Ye Xie sat on the Dragon Chair, looking imposingly across the hall.
Members of the True Phoenix Clan lined up on both sides.
"Ye Cheng, as a protector, you must not lie. Today, in front of the members of the True Phoenix Clan and core members, recount the matter of the Holy Daughter once more."
Ye Cheng walked out respectfully.
Bowing from side to side.
"Yes!"
He then recounted the sequence of events that had occurred at the Fang Family.
The audience listened with covert astonishment, full of doubts.
Every member of the True Phoenix Clan had many questions to ask.
After he finished speaking, a discussion erupted throughout the hall.
Seeing this.
Ye Xie waved his hand grandly and said: "Everyone, feel free to raise any questions you may have."
With the permission from the True Lord, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Someone immediately stood up and said:
"Protector Ye Cheng, as the leader of this mission, your handling was not successful, and still you look for excuses! From what I see... how could you yield to those lower-class humans? It's simply a disgrace to our True Phoenix Clan! In my opinion, just annihilate that so-called Fang Family, not leaving a single one. Then, the Holy Daughter won't have a choice."
Another person chimed in:
"I agree with your opinion. You just mentioned that the Holy Daughter is already married in the modern world... That's the modern era, but the Holy Daughter is the Holy Daughter of our True Phoenix Clan. She should not neglect the greater good of the clan for personal affection! Some low-class humans, with their lowly bloodlines, will be phased out sooner or later, there's no need for the True Phoenix Clan to bow down to them."
"Protector Ye... we just returned from the Secret Realm. That's true. But it's unreasonable to be fooled by someone with something called a television box? Even talking about destroying planets, that's just a joke! Are you a child? So easily tricked?"
The crowd burst into discussions.
Most of them thought that Ye Cheng's actions were not quite right.
However...
Ye Xie still said: "Is there any differing opinion?"
In fact, as members of the True Phoenix Clan, of course, they wouldn't bow down to humans of disgraceful descent.
That's why no one dared to voice a different opinion just now.
By asking this, Ye Xie clearly wanted everyone to speak the truth.
Finally.
Someone boldly stood up and said: "I think Protector Ye's actions are not inappropriate... First of all, we must consider the Holy Daughter's feelings. Since the Holy Daughter stands on the side of the Fang Family, if we really kill the Fang Family, it is possible that the Holy Daughter will be extremely angered and might even turn against us. Secondly, since they are of a lowly bloodline, sooner or later makes no difference, coming back here to discuss strategies is just giving them a bit more time to live."
Another person also said:
"Exactly. Protector Ye mentioned earlier, someone from the Fang Family brought out a lot of modern weapons. Eight thousand years have passed, no one knows what the humans have become now. The Spiritual Energy might have become scant, but humans might have made significant achievements in other domains! These weapons, the True Lord has had people research, and they are indeed powerful. If so, letting them feel proud for a moment isn't harmful. Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated!"
Everyone nodded.
At this moment.
Ye Xie looked at everyone indifferently and then said:
"Regarding the images they displayed, the True Phoenix Clan is not well familiar with them, but there should be somebody in Kunlun Mountain who does."
Sure enough—
Hearing this, Li Daochang, the Sect Master of Kunlun Sect, immediately stood up, bowed respectfully, and said: "Predecessor, regarding the civilization of modern weapons, there's a disciple in the Kunlun Sect who is extremely knowledgeable about it."
"Good, let your person come out and explain a bit."
"Yes!"
Li Daochang gestured towards a disciple standing beside him.
The disciple from the Kunlun Sect spoke up,
saying, "Based on what Senior Ye mentioned earlier, it can be ascertained that what Fang Yu of the Fang Family said is true. And... modern weapons are only getting stronger."
As soon as these words were spoken,
the entire room was in an uproar.
The claim from Ye Cheng before about destroying planets was already something unbelievable.
Now a disciple of the Kunlun Sect was confirming it as true!
How could they not be shocked?
The Kunlun Sect disciple continued:
"Clearly... Fang Yu from the Fang Family doesn't know enough about modern weapons. Aside from weapons that can destroy planets called he weapons, humanity has already developed nano weapons. Nano weapons, possessing unparalleled destructive power, can slice any object into fragments. If the weapon is large enough, cutting open an entire planet isn't a problem. In addition, there are various kinds of Anti-Matter Weapons, and chemical weapons. All of them are so powerful that they have been banned by humanity. Moreover... humanity had the technology to land on the Moon as early as the last century... At present, humans are already capable of conducting explorations on Mars!"
The room fell deathly silent!
No one spoke.
Has human technology advanced to such a terrifying extent?
Stepping on Mars, the Moon.
For these Cultivators, these are absolutely unattainable feats.
Even the mightiest among the Saint-class, at the Infinite Epic Level, would find it difficult to achieve, right?
"This... how is that possible?" someone exclaimed in wonder.
Hearing this,
Sect Master Li Daochang of the Kunlun Sect said, "Before the return of the seniors, I had sent people to investigate this Fang Yu. This person is the chief in charge of the Dark Web, and the Dark Web controls the key modern cities of the Nine Provinces of Huaxia. By the way, they have control over these weapons! So... what the protector Ye said, shouldn't be false. We should treat this seriously!"
Sitting on the Dragon Chair, Ye Xie slightly nodded.
"Li Daochang, can we trust what your people said?"
Li Daochang promptly replied,
"Senior, I am willing to stake my life on the words of my people."
"Good!"
Ye Xie slowly stood up, "This matter needs detailed planning... That boy Fang Yu may not have a high level of Cultivation, but after all, he possesses such weapons and is well-versed in the modern environment. Most importantly, the Holy Daughter is on his side."
"The True Lord is wise."
"The True Lord is wise!"
Everyone bowed.
Ye Xie's gaze fell on Ye Cheng, saying, "Assign someone to monitor his every move."
"At your command!"
"Also, absolutely do not act recklessly. The Holy Daughter is our target. Find a way to win her back."
"Yes!"
"If there's nothing else, you may all leave."
"Hail the True Lord!"
"Hail the senior!"
…
The crowd dispersed.
Yet Ye Cheng's expression was not so pleasant.
He and the other three brothers walked out.
"Boss, are you angry?"
Ye Cheng snorted coldly and said, "That kid Fang Yu has made me lose face, I must regain my dignity in this situation!"
"Don't worry, Ye Renyu has already started implementing the plan, with him on it, there should be no failure."
Hearing this,
Ye Cheng frowned slightly and said, "I don't quite trust that kid Ye Renyu, just to be safe, prepare another plan."
"What do you plan to do?"
"Divide and conquer!"
