"Would the Eternal Clan attack us?" Lu Tianyi asked.
Wang Wen nodded. "If I were the Eternal Clan, I'd attack Primeval Space after cutting off all its outside support. First, Primeval Space has the strongest forces and the most experts. Second, the Eternal Clan has been suppressed lately, almost entirely because of Primeval Space. Third, they could make Pawn Your Highness's death more certain and throw the entire Six Directions Meeting into chaos. That would achieve three things at once."
"If I'm not mistaken, some people in the Six Directions Meeting are already starting to panic. The news of Pawn Your Highness's death was the Eternal Clan's first move. They're testing the Six Directions Meeting, and Pawn Your Highness too, because even the Eternal Clan may not be sure that he's dead."
At that, Wang Wen leaned toward Lu Tianyi. "Um, senior, let me ask: how is Pawn Your Highness, exactly?"
Lu Tianyi didn't know how to answer. He didn't know whether Little Seven was dead either.
By all rights, he should have been. The Only True God had made his move, and his target was a Half-Ancestor. How could he have survived? But Old Ancestor Lu Yuan had said that it wasn't certain. Mr. Mu had taken Little Seven away, and according to Old Ancestor Lu Yuan, Mr. Mu was someone who could sit and discuss the Dao with the Progenitor. If he had intervened, Little Seven might still have been saved.
Wang Wen sighed. "Looks like you don't know either. Never mind. Whatever the case, we need to find outside support immediately. This battle will come soon. The Eternal Clan won't give us much time."
"Don't forget, even now, there are still so many Dark Sons in the Fifth Continent. The Six Directions Meeting can only have more.
