At this moment, the three Peak Grandmaster of the King Chujiang Hall, Dongling Rui, Dongling Heng, and Dongling Qing, were also sitting together, discussing the matter of Gongliang Yi and the others.
Although they opposed the King Chujiang Hall's large-scale entry into the mainland, it did not mean that their sources of information had been cut off.
Dongling Rui looked at Dongling Heng and Dongling Qing and said, "Now you know why I was so opposed to entering the mainland!"
"Even though intelligence from the mainland indicated that there were only three Peak Grandmaster on the surface, Gongliang Yi and his group were still all killed."
"You should know that they had the combat power of three Peak Grandmaster when they entered the mainland this time, and they still couldn't escape with their lives."
Do you still think that the people on the mainland can be slaughtered at will?
Dongling Heng and Dongling Qing both nodded deeply upon hearing what Dongling Rui said.
One of the reasons they initially supported Dongling Rui's actions was because they shared the same ancestry.
Furthermore, their ancestors had repeatedly warned them against easily entering the mainland.
Deep down, they still didn't quite believe it.
Therefore, regarding Gongliang Yi's recent actions, we simply pretend not to know and assume that Gongliang Yi and his group are testing the depths of the mainland.
As it turns out, the tests have revealed that the mainland is not a place they can enter at will.
If it's just a minor incident, then nobody will pay attention.
If it were a large-scale invasion, they would probably end up like Gongliang Yi and his group.
The fact that so many high- Ranked Martial Practitioner from Gongliang Yi Sect have entered the mainland safely is a testament to this.
However, when he finally entered the mainland, he ended up losing his life there.
However, they then realized that since Gongliang Yi and Gongliang Tang had perished on the mainland, this was a great loss.
Shouldn't the position of Palace Master of the Gongliang family be handed over?
Thinking of this, Dongling Rui and the others' eyes lit up.
The current King Chujiang Hall is a joint entity composed of the two largest Lineage, the Gongliang family and the Dongling family, as well as some other smaller Lineage.
When they first moved away from the mainland, the Dongling family was in charge.
That's why the people of the King Chujiang Hall kept their development under control and never thought about re-entering the mainland.
Later, the Dongling family began to decline, while the Gongliang family gradually rose to prominence.
Until Gongliang Bo snatched the position of Palace Master from Dongling Rui's father.
Therefore, the entire King Chujiang Hall began to stir and secretly reorganize its plans on the mainland.
However, it is precisely because of this that the strength of the King Chujiang Hall has been continuously improved.
In the past century, four more Peak Grandmaster have been added: Gongliang Tang, Gongliang Chu, Dongling Heng, and Dongling Qing.
Of course, in Dongling Rui's mind, this was due to their natural talent, not because of any lack of resources.
He had held a grudge ever since he lost his position as temple master.
However, at that time, he was all alone and had no choice but to give up the position of Palace Master in order to protect the Dongling family. After that, he became even more low-key.
Although Gongliang Bo did not exterminate them after taking over as the palace master.
However, the intention to target them in every way is quite obvious.
Now that such a good opportunity has come up, how could Dongling Rui let it go?
"Gentlemen, I want to take back the position of Palace Master. Will you support me?" Dongling Rui asked Dongling Heng and Dongling Qing.
Upon hearing this, Dongling Heng and Dongling Qing both looked up at Dongling Rui.
If Dongling Rui could take the position of Palace Master, the benefits to the entire Dongling family would be obvious.
Dongling Heng and Dongling Qing exchanged a glance, then nodded to Dongling Rui, indicating their support for him to reclaim the position of Palace Master.
After all, according to the established tradition, the position of Palace Master originally belonged to Dongling Rui.
At that time, Dongling Rui's father was nearing the end of his life and didn't have much time left, and the Dongling family only had Dongling Rui, a Peak Grandmaster, to support them.
That's why Gongliang Bo took advantage of the situation and seized the position of Palace Master.
Now that Dongling Rui intends to reclaim the position of Palace Master, they will definitely give him their full support.
When Dongling Rui saw that Dongling Heng and Dongling Qing both agreed that he should reclaim the position of Palace Master, they began to discuss it.
When Gongliang Bo held the meeting, they pulled him down from his position as temple master.
After the three finished their discussion, they dispersed and went back to wait for Gongliang Bo to convene a meeting.
After all, such a big thing happened at the King Chujiang Hall, so a meeting must be held to explain things to everyone.
A day later, Gongliang Bo convened a joint meeting of Grandmaster and Peak Grandmaster.
Gongliang Bo originally only wanted to convene a meeting of Peak Grandmaster, but he thought that Dongling Rui would definitely cause trouble at the meeting.
Therefore, he simply summoned all the Grandmaster together for a meeting.
He thought to himself that this might suppress Dongling Rui's thoughts of causing trouble.
The many Grandmaster of the King Chujiang Hall arrived at the council hall in the middle of the underground palace and found that their palace Gongliang Bo, was already seated. They quickly stepped into the hall.
Soon after, another Peak Grandmaster of the Gongliang family, Gongliang Chu, and a group of other Grandmaster from the Gongliang family also arrived.
When Dongling Rui arrived with two Peak Grandmaster of the Dongling family and a group of Grandmaster, almost half an hour had already passed.
Gongliang Bo glanced at the Dongling family members who had arrived late, and said indifferently, "Alright, now that everyone is here, let's begin the meeting."
"Wait a minute, not everyone has arrived yet. Wasn't it supposed to be a meeting of all Grandmaster and Peak Grandmaster?" Dongling Rui immediately objected.
Dongling Rui turned to one of the Grandmaster present and asked, "Wang Qiang, where is your elder brother?"
Wang Qiang stood up and said, "Elder Rui, my elder brother has gone out on a mission."
Dongling Rui then turned to another Grandmaster and asked, "Brother Jiang, where is your young master?"
Jiang Han cupped his hands towards Dongling Rui and said, "Elder Rui, my son has also gone on a mission."
At this moment, Gongliang Bo, who was sitting at the head of the table, spoke up, "Alright, everyone, sit down! The purpose of this meeting is to discuss the execution of this mission."
Dongling Rui gestured to the crowd before sitting down.
"This operation to seize the Blood Attraction Flower from the mainland can be considered a failure," Gongliang Bo said calmly.
"What? Impossible."
Gongliang Bo's words immediately shocked everyone present.
It should be noted that this time, a total of two Peak Grandmaster, eight Grandmaster, more than a dozen Minor Grandmaster, and even more Ranked Martial Practitioner were dispatched to the mainland.
Before setting off, everyone present thought that this was a sure thing and that they were going out to see the prosperity of the mainland.
Now they're saying the mission failed? Where are the people who went out to carry out the mission?
When they went out on the mission, they said they would be back soon.
Later, news came back that it would be a little later because the Blood Attraction Flower was not yet ripe.
Finally, after careful consideration, it was decided that the place was an important location for cultivating Blood Attraction Flower.
Therefore, those who cultivate Blood Attraction Flower should also be confined, so that Blood Attraction Flower can be produced continuously.
Therefore, everyone agreed with Gongliang Bo's suggestion, which is why the completion time of this task was repeatedly delayed.
Now that it's been dragged on until now, they're saying the mission failed. Could it be that the people who didn't come back are all dead?
Those present looked at Gongliang Bo, hoping he could give them an explanation.
