Dispute
Hun Tu's act of blocking the gate naturally infuriated everyone in the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace.
However, this is understandable. Which faction wouldn't be angered by this kind of situation?
In fact, even if Xiao Lin didn't take action, there were still people in the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace who could deal with Hun Tu.
That person was none other than Xuan Ting, the newly joined Grand Xuan Ting of the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace!
Although both Xuan Ting and Hun Tu are at the Late-Stage Seven-Star Dou Saint, the former's Main Body is Nine Profound Golden Lightning!
Even against a typical Early Eight-Star Dou Saint Sheng, he could fight to a standstill, let alone against a mere Late-Stage Seven-Star Dou Saint Demon Saint like Hun Tu.
It's no exaggeration to say that if Xuan Ting were to make a move, while he might not be able to completely crush Hun Tu, defeating him would be absolutely no problem.
This is a natural advantage that Xuan Ting and these spirits of heaven and earth possess when they take human form!
However, the fact that Xuan Ting joined the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace remains a secret to the outside world.
With both Palace Masters Xiao Lin and Ji Li still in seclusion, no one else dared to reveal Xuan Ting's existence without authorization!
After all, Hun Tu is only visiting the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace under the guise of a visit, not actually launching a direct attack.
There are still differences between them.
If it's the latter, then there's no need to say more. With the sect under attack, who cares about being exposed?
But since neither side has clearly broken off relations yet, there is still room for maneuver.
Even though everyone knows that the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace and the Hun Clan are enemies.
However, as long as neither side publicly announces this matter, certain things will have to continue to be done in a perfunctory manner.
This is the code of conduct between different factions.
This can be seen from the fact that Hun Tu came under the guise of visiting the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, and did not actually just stand in front of your sect to prevent your sect members from leaving.
Otherwise, Hun Tu could simply do that and completely disregard the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, right?
It's important to know that the Hun Clan is currently unaware that Xuan Ting has already joined the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace.
Clearly, the Hun Tiandi's arrangement for Hun Tu still treats the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace as it was before!
This is essentially a way of saving face.
This is the adult world; there's no such thing as acting impulsively.
Therefore, with the Hun Clan giving them face, the others in the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace were also in a difficult position for the time being.
At this moment, Hun Tu was still "visiting" at the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, while a group of Leadership were discussing the matter.
In the council hall of the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, all the Leadership had arrived, and the meeting was chaired by the First Elder Zuo He.
"Tell me your thoughts, what should we do about this? Should we ask the Grand Elder for help? Or should we bother the two Palace Masters and ask them for their advice?"
Zuo He frowned and asked the others.
The two Supreme and the Grand Elder of the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace don't manage affairs. Usually, when Palace Masters Xiao Lin and Ji Li are not present, it is the First Elder Zuo He who makes the arrangements.
If he is also unsure, he will convene a meeting of Leadership and Elders to brainstorm ideas.
Now is the time when he can't make up his mind.
"Hmph, a mere Late-Stage Seven-Star Dou Saint dares to humiliate our Myriad Formation Spirit Palace like this! First Elder, let's ask the Grand Elder to take action! With the Grand Elder's strength, he can definitely drive that Hun Tu guy out!"
Fourth Elder Wu Yunfeng was clearly the type who didn't want to swallow his anger.
In his words, "Damn it, they really think too highly of their Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, don't they?"
This is absolutely intolerable!
"I agree with Old Wu's opinion. With the current strength of our Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, there's no need for us to tolerate a Hun Tu at the Late-Stage Seven-Star Dou Saint!"
The Fifth Elder, Dai Chenhai, was the next to speak.
Subsequently, several other Elders expressed their support for Wu Yunfeng.
If a sect has doves and hawks, then Wu Yunfeng is a typical hawk!
He has a strong sense of sect honor and cannot stand the sect being bullied.
Although the Hun Clan's actions were a gesture of respect to the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, they were also a blatant disrespect for the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace!
A mere sentence from their clan patriarch, delivered by a Seven-Star Dou Saint, was enough to deter those capable of rebellion from taking any rash action?
What's the logic behind this?
If they didn't have the ability to resist, that would be one thing, but now they do!
To still tolerate this would be far too stifling.
If I tolerate you when you lack strength, and I still tolerate you when you have it, then what's the point of my strength?
That's pretty much what Wu Yunfeng was thinking.
However, while some chose to confront the Hun Clan head-on, others opted for a more cautious approach.
"This is too impulsive! Although the High Priest can deal with Hun Tu, what happens after Hun Tu? What if Nihility Devouring Flame, or even Hun Tiandi, arrives next? Can we still handle them?"
The person the Hun Clan truly fears is the Palace Master. Now that the Palace Master is in seclusion, it is really not advisable for us to make such a significant decision lightly.
I think it would be safer to wake up the Palace Master.
After all, the Palace Master's return this time was merely to sort out the gains, not to make any particularly significant breakthroughs.
We've awakened the Palace Master; nothing should happen.
This time, it was Elder Zhu Fang, the Seventh Elder, who had been transferred back from the Jia Nan Academy earlier, who spoke.
Currently, although there is still a Dou Venerable Elder stationed at the Jia Nan Academy, he is just an Ordinary Elder.
The reason Zhu Fang was initially stationed at the Spatial Wormhole near the Jia Nan Academy was simply because, at that time, the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace had no other suitable Dou Venerable candidates besides the Eight Elders.
Now, with the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace being large and powerful, things are naturally different.
"I think what Lao Zhu said makes sense. Since the Palace Master didn't announce the Grand Elder's return to the public, he must have his reasons. As things stand, I don't think it's time to let the outside world know that the Grand Elder has joined my Myriad Formation Spirit Palace."
I think that one day in the future, having the Grand Elder take action unexpectedly would be more advantageous for us!
The Sixth Elder Yi Moqiu, is supporting Zhu Fang.
Subsequently, many Elders also expressed their support for Zhu Fang.
And so, the two sides were locked in a stalemate over this matter.
Everyone's arguments had their own merits, Zuo He was unable to make a final decision.
That's really awkward.
"Since we have disagreements, why don't you, First Elder, go and consult the two Supreme and the Grand Elder?"
Seeing that no one could reach a conclusion, the Second Elder, Weng Xing, offered a suggestion.
Upon hearing his words, the other Leadership were initially taken aback, but then they all echoed his sentiments.
Unfortunately, they couldn't make the decision themselves, so they had to consult higher -Leadership.
Above them, besides the two Palace Masters, there are naturally only two Supreme and grand elders.
"Alright, then I'll go ask those three for their opinions."
Seeing this, Zuo He nodded and did not object.
Immediately, Zuo He headed to the Realm of Formations.
