Dan Jing felt the palpable killing intent beside him, and his expression darkened.
Though he did not fear Tai Xuan, a fight now would only delight Zhaohua. For the sake of the bigger picture, he preferred a peaceful resolution.
Unfortunately, one lineage within the Tribulation Deliverance Sect never considered the bigger picture. They even hoped for greater chaos.
Dan Jing turned his head and gave Cen Lingyi a meaningful look, signaling for her, as sect master, to speak.
Cen Lingyi merely stood quietly, ignoring his gaze.
To Heaven's Will itself, there was no difference between unifying other domains and ruling them, so long as those foreign domains ultimately belonged to Fuli.
Since Heaven's Will did not care, neither would she.
"..." Seeing his sect master's demeanor, Dan Jing immediately understood her thoughts and felt rather helpless.
Heaven's Will might not care, but the Heaven's Will Sect did!
Unification and dominion were not merely methods of handling foreign domains; they were also ways of practicing the two sects' respective paths. Even if the Heaven's Will Sect did not rule them, having Tribulation Deliverance take charge instead would be acceptable.
He looked at Cen Lingyi again.
Cen Lingyi met his gaze quietly for a moment before finally saying slowly, "Unification and dominion are no different to Heaven's Will."
Dan Jing: "..."
He knew it!
Yet after a pause, Cen Lingyi added, "But the Perched Cloud Grotto-Heaven must be placed in the Heaven's Will Sect's keeping."
Not only was Chu Mo briefly taken aback, even Dan Jing froze for a moment.
The Perched Cloud Grotto-Heaven?
Chu Mo narrowed his eyes. "Daoist Friend Heavenly Jade, the Perched Cloud Grotto-Heaven is a matter of great importance, a vital foothold for Tribulation Deliverance in Zhaohua. Isn't that demand of yours rather inappropriate?"
Cen Lingyi said calmly,
