Chapter 849 Attitude (1/2)

A dead body was placed in the middle of the hall of the three major clans.

Around it, there were eight angry old men.

At the front of the hall, an old man sat. The expression on his face was cold as ice and his eyes held such malice that it might have killed anyone with just a glance.

”I need to know who killed Talcott,” he said. His voice was deceptively calm, but it betrayed the anger simmering underneath it.

”Sir, Talcott was killed by people from the Space-time Palace. I saw it with my own eyes and they even threatened to kill me. Fortunately, a few of my fellows arrived. The blue-skinned men were afraid that you would get involved so they decided to retreat.”

Talcott had just become a senior holy warrior not so long ago, and yet his life was unexpectedly put to an end with just one palm strike. His death was a huge blow to the three major clans.

By killing him, the blue-skinned people had just sent out a lethal warning.

”With all due respect, sir, we must avenge Talcott. My fellows and I will gather and hunt down those people from the Space-time Palace,” someone suggested.

The eight people present in the hall were those who held top-ranking positions in the clans. The dead Talcott was the weakest one among them.

Yorick stood up and said, ”In my opinion, there's no need for us to do anything stupid. We should, instead, inform the Sacred Palace of this matter as quickly as possible. They'll figure out what should be done next.”

”This has nothing to do with the Sacred Palace! The man who died is one of ours. They won't give us any support because their strong masters are in the eighteen cities. It'll be useless to bring the matter to them.”

”The strength of the Sacred Palace should not be underestimated. It won't be useless to inform them of the issue because an alien race was involved. They'll surely want to be informed about this.”

”I agree with you. To human race, the approval of the Sacred Palace matters more than that of the three major clans so it is only reasonable that they deal with the problem. In this way, we get their support while also keeping our original agreement.”

”Humph! By fulfilling the agreement, you are giving the Sacred Palace free reign to lead. I can't agree to that.”

The elders began to quarrel among each other.

”Stop! It's necessary to inform the Sacred Palace of this incident. If they won't do anything, it'll be a direct violation of the agreement. If that happens, we can take back control from them leg
