Looking at the frightened bunch below, Li Changsheng reassured them.
Only after hearing this did the expressions of those below ease slightly.
As the saying went, ignorance was no crime. Those who did not know how powerful Forbidden Void was would surely charge in with blades raised, heedless of all else.
But they knew all too well how terrifying Forbidden Void was, which was why they were so wary.
If Forbidden Void were to mobilize on a large scale, they would definitely turn around and leave without looking back.
They could help Li Changsheng, sure—but help him go head-to-head with Forbidden Void? Sorry, they did not have that kind of ability.
Forbidden Void was a force that even the main branch of the Star River Cosmos feared. What could a tiny offshoot like theirs possibly do?
Even if Forbidden Void wiped them out, the Star River Cosmos main branch would praise Forbidden Void for a job well done.
That was the most fundamental gap between them.
Seeing that the expressions of those below had improved somewhat, Li Changsheng continued explaining.
This was precisely why he disliked using prodigies from his own clan. Every last one of them feared this and dreaded that, utterly lacking in ambition.
A moment later, after hearing Li Changsheng's explanation, everyone finally came to a sudden realization.
They were just there to put on a show. That was good.
It also happened to give them a chance to see what these so-called Forbidden Void prodigies were really like.
"Then this will be easy. Fellow Daoist Changsheng, rest assured. Forbidden Void may be strong, but we are not weak either."
Hearing Wei Hong's words, Li Changsheng's face twitched, but he said nothing.
"Everyone, tea."
Outside the great hall, more than a dozen prodigies entered carrying tea.
"Mhm."
