Faced with everyone's gaze, Gongliang Bo had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "All the people who went out on this mission have been killed. Only some of the people who entered the mainland before survived."
Gongliang Bo's words immediately startled many people present, causing them to stand up.
The elders and family members of those who went out this time were especially horrified.
Don't assume that just because martial artists live long lives, they are indifferent to their descendants.
It is important to know that the higher a martial artist's strength, the more difficult it is for them to have offspring.
Therefore, the closer a martial artist gets to the limits of their life, the more they value their offspring.
Those who went out on this mission were the most outstanding descendants of many people here, so they were given even greater attention.
When we sent them out, we were hoping they would broaden their horizons.
Furthermore, with two Peak Grandmaster accompanying them, their safety would certainly be guaranteed, which is why they felt so at ease.
"Palace Master, where is my Old Ancestor?" Gongliang Hong couldn't suppress his emotions and immediately stood up to ask.
Gongliang Yi was their Old Ancestor, and he was the one who supported their family's position in the King Chujiang Hall.
If Gongliang Yi, it will be a devastating blow to his family.
"Yes! Your Highness, where is my father?" Gongliang Che also stood up excitedly and asked.
Gongliang Tang was Gongliang Che's father. Before setting off, he confidently told him that he would definitely be able to bring back the Blood Attraction Flower for him this time.
If he can advance to the Peak Grandmaster level as soon as possible, then his family will have two Peak Grandmaster.
At that time, their family's status in the King Chujiang Hall will definitely surpass that of Gongliang Bo, and it's not impossible for him to take the position of Palace Master.
Now Gongliang Bo is actually saying that everyone who entered the mainland this time was killed?
If his father also perished on the mainland, it would be a devastating blow to their family.
He knew very well what he had done in the King Chujiang Hall, relying on his father's power.
Many Grandmaster from small Lineage in the hall were shocked when they heard that everyone who had gone out had been killed.
They gave Gongliang Che a meaningful smile.
This sent a chill down Gongliang Che's spine, making him feel that something bad was about to happen.
Gongliang Bo looked sorrowful and said, "They also perished on the mainland."
"Ah!"
Although Gongliang Bo had already said it once, they still found it somewhat unbelievable after confirming it again.
The crowd below immediately began to murmur amongst themselves.
"Alright, now that this matter has been confirmed, shouldn't our Lord Palace Master give us an explanation?" Dongling Rui stood up and said.
"Yes, the Palace Master must bear the greatest responsibility for this matter," Dongling Heng also chimed in.
"That's right. When they first entered the mainland, they said they would be back soon, but they kept delaying. Now that they've all been killed, the Palace Master is the biggest sinner." Dongling Qing immediately echoed.
Subsequently, the Grandmaster of the Dongling family also began to condemn the incident.
"Shut up! The decision to enter the mainland was made by a vote of everyone. Now you're putting all the blame on the Palace Master?" Gongliang Chu shouted angrily.
"It's true that everyone voted to enter the mainland. But the subsequent delays in completing the mission were solely the work of the Palace Master," Dongling Rui said calmly.
Dongling Rui's words immediately drew unanimous agreement from everyone present.
After all, if the people who went out this time had followed the original decision, they should have returned long ago and wouldn't have suffered this misfortune.
Therefore, Dongling Rui is right; the Palace Master should bear the greatest responsibility for this matter.
Gongliang Bo realized that if they continued to cause trouble, things would develop in an unpredictable direction.
Immediately, Gongliang Bo released his aura, intending to intimidate them and shut them up.
Instantly, a suppressive aura enveloped the entire hall, making the many Grandmaster inside feel as if they were facing an Ancient Ferocious Beast, as if they might be devoured by it at any moment.
However, three other identical auras quickly followed, countering Gongliang Bo's aura.
A loud "Boom!" suddenly erupted in the hall, and the people who had been oppressed felt a sense of relief.
"Stop, Gongliang Bo! Do you want to kill all our people?" Dongling Rui shouted.
Gongliang Bo now felt as if he had done something stupid. He was already on guard against Dongling Rui causing trouble, but now Dongling Rui had caught him red-handed.
"That's right, Gongliang Bo, don't think you can cover up everything. You have to give an explanation," Dongling Heng shouted angrily.
"Everyone, I believe that Gongliang Bo is no longer suitable to continue serving as our Palace Master. What do you all think?" Dongling Qing said to the crowd.
"I agree with Elder Qing's statement," a Grandmaster from the Dongling family immediately stood up and said.
Jiang Han immediately echoed, "I also think Elder Qing is right."
"I agree as well." Wang Qiang also expressed his agreement.
Subsequently, more Grandmaster expressed their agreement with Dongling Qing's proposal.
Grandmaster who expressed their agreement were family members of the Grandmaster died in the recent incident and entered the mainland.
However, as more and more people expressed their support, the neutral smaller Lineage also followed suit and expressed their agreement.
In the end, everyone except the Grandmaster of the Gongliang family agreed with Dongling Qing's statement.
Gongliang Bo glanced indifferently at the crowd below; he had anticipated this situation.
In fact, if it weren't for the long-term development of the King Chujiang Hall...
He could have completely ignored these short-sighted guys and just done his own thing, living a much more carefree life.
"Shut up! The Palace Master did this so that our King Chujiang Hall could improve its strength as soon as possible. He had no selfish motives whatsoever. Now that something has gone wrong, does he have to bear the blame alone?"
Gongliang Chu could no longer control his anger and was about to unleash his full power.
Before he could make a move, Dongling Rui's aura had already pressed down on him.
Gongliang Chu could no longer control his aura and immediately began to fight back.
Instantly, debris flew everywhere in the hall, and dust filled the air.
Then the hall began to shake. If they continued to resist, the entire hall would probably collapse.
Those Grandmaster looked even worse off, with many of them already pressed to the ground.
Just as Gongliang Bo, Dongling Heng, and Dongling Qing were about to make a move.
Dongling Rui and Gongliang Chu simultaneously withdrew the aura emanating from their bodies.
It turned out that the two were also afraid that if the fight continued, the Grandmaster in the hall would suffer heavy casualties, so they tacitly withdrew their auras at the same time.
The people in the hall finally felt that they could breathe smoothly again.
"Alright, Dongling Rui, tell me! What exactly do you want?" Gongliang Bo looked at Dongling Rui and said calmly.
