1772 No Thoroughfare (1/2)
\”I am not exaggerating it. I believe you all know what I am talking about. You all remember what levels your people were at when they joined the Monarch's Hall. Within less than a year, the best one of them was almost at the Immortality Stage… It is unusually fast in the history of the Human Realm Upon Heavens. Even the Great Master Ye or the five Sky Kings never improved that fast. If our men are banished, they won't be able to improve so fast anymore. They won't blame Monarch Ye, but they will blame us. What do you think?\”
\”That's for certain.\”
\”However, this is difficult. The great ancestors won't give up Ye Yunduan, and we have to listen to the great ancestors…\”
\”Let's pretend ill first. Maybe things will change soon…\”
Master Qin made a sigh. He really didn't know what to do now.
One was the vow that his great ancestor made, while the other was the future of his children!
The bright future was right there. Following Ye Xiao would lead them to a bright future. However, they couldn't go against their own ancestors… The biggest problem was that the great ancestors were all alive, so these seven old masters truly didn't have the right to make the final decision.
It was difficult.
The seven old masters were hesitating…
Ye Yunduan was already furious! The message was received. Ye Yunduan broke the entire study room to vent his anger when he heard that the seven old men fell ill at the same time!
'At the same time? Am I a fool to you? You don't want to fight Ye Xiao!'
Ye Yunduan gritted his teeth so hard.
The seven old masters hesitated for only two days because things did change…
Ye Xiao had sent a message to Master Guan.
It wasn't a surprise, because Ye Xiao and Master Guan had always been friends. However, what surprised Master Guan was what Ye Xiao said in the message. He wanted Master Guan and the other six old masters to secretly attend a meeting in the Hall of Life and Death.
The sudden news shocked the seven old masters!
'What is this about?'
The seven old men discussed for a long time, but they couldn't think of a reason!
Ye Xiao had stopped contacting the old men since they left the Monarch's Hall. After he saved the Guan Clan and the Song Clan earlier, Ye Xiao and Master Guan started to contact each other again, but only a few times.
The old masters understood why Ye Xiao stopped contacting them, and they were grateful. If Ye Yunduan knew they were in contact, he would definitely be mad at the Seven Lotus Clans!
The seven old men were grateful but also regretful for what Ye Xiao did for them.
However, they didn't understand why Ye Xiao asked them for a secret meeting!
The seven old men were confused.
Ye Xiao had sincerely invited them, so they figured they shouldn't refuse it.
They didn't spend much time to prepare before they left for the meeting. The Hall of Life and Death was a familiar place to the seven old men!
…
They were cautious, so they put on disguises and left from somewhere else other than their own houses. They met up in a tea house first and then hid in a carriage. In the middle of the night, they were going to the Hall of Life and Death secretly.
Ye Xiao was holding a secret meeting. It was necessary to be cautious.
After two turns, they would arrive at the fortress of trees.
