Therefore, the white-haired Daoist priest would never agree to such terms, no matter what.
He would rather risk having everything fall apart.
"Brother Gao, watch your words!"
"There's no need to say such things in anger."
The white-robed youth and the black-clothed middle-aged man cried out in alarm.
Neither of them had expected the white-haired Daoist priest to react so fiercely.
The white-haired Daoist priest said coldly, "Ask yourselves honestly, is Gao the sort to act out of spite?"
The white-robed youth said, "Since we can't reach an agreement, why don't we find a mediator?"
The white-haired Daoist priest's heart sank. His divine sense immediately caught a figure racing toward them at breakneck speed.
Before long, the figure arrived and revealed his true appearance: a burly old man with a ruddy complexion, dressed in a bright yellow robe and a tall ceremonial crown. The moment he came to a stop, a noble air radiated from him.
"Greetings, Fourth Elder."
The white-robed youth and the black-robed youth led their subordinates in greeting the noble old man in unison.
The white-haired Daoist priest was a beat slower, but he, too, led Xu Yi and the others in greeting the noble old man. His heart, however, churned like a river in flood.
Beforehand, he had expected Tianyu Tower and the Mountain Sea Alliance to have made thorough preparations. But as long as he held firm on "going our separate ways," he could keep things from spiraling out of control. At worst, he would have to give up some benefits.
Now, he finally understood how badly he had underestimated the situation. With these two having invited such a mediator, there were many things he could no longer do or say.
This Fourth Elder was none other than a member of the Holy Clan Kong
