Chapter 2605: Chapter 535
The Sky Clan’s new Clan Leader has arranged a meeting with the leaders of various clans for one purpose.
Unlike the previous leader, he does not intend to annihilate the other clans, nor does he plan to oppress them.
"In ten thousand years, our Great Thousand World will contend with the Alien Race. If we continue internal disputes now, draining our own strength, then when that time comes, our side will be utterly defeated. At that time, regardless of whether it’s us, the Sky Clan, or you, the Demon Clan, or the Beast Clan, all will face extinction!
Therefore, I have come to convene with you to discuss putting an end to this."
The matters he spoke of this time were extensive, even for the Clan Leaders present. There was a prolonged silence, seeming to digest the content of his words.
After a long time, the Demon Clan Leader slowly spoke, "So, you mean that from now on, we are no longer to fight amongst ourselves, and then each of us will return to our own Great Thousand World, thereafter gathering strength and preparing for battle with cultivators from the other world?"
"We do indeed need to gather strength, but we cannot just retreat to our Great Thousand World. We must continue to compete, as competition pressures our cultivators and drives them to improve.
It’s just that there’s no need to fight to the death upon meeting as before, or to engage the clans in war as the damage is far too great.
Distress..."
The Heavenly Clan Emperor paused slightly and continued, "Moreover, the Human Clan’s Central Continent is roughly situated at the center of our Great Thousand Worlds. Since we have established ourselves in the Humans’ Central Continent, let it serve as a gathering place for all our clans.
Furthermore, our clans should form an organization to jointly manage and coordinate the conflicts between clans. What do you all think?"
After a moment of contemplation, the Evil Clan Leader spoke first, "I have no objections."
His words were followed by the unanimous agreement of the surrounding Clan Leaders.
In truth, the Sky Clan indicated they are ready to cease fighting, so their clans should withdraw from the Central Continent. But the problem is, the six clans have already divided the Central Continent among themselves, and they have vested interests there. How could they possibly give up benefits they’ve already secured!
So, they all agreed to keep the Central Continent as it is!
"Then, as for establishing a new organization, who should be responsible for it, or should the responsibility rotate among the clans?"
"Let the younger generation deliberate on that."
"In that case, so be it."
"This time, given that it’s for the battle against another world’s cultivators ten thousand years later, surely the Human Clan, too, is an ’alien race’ on our side. The force of the Human Clan, as everyone has seen, is not weak. This matter certainly cannot bypass the Human Clan."
"Indeed, it should not bypass the Human Clan; this matter should be communicated to them."
"Who should inform the Human Clan then?"
The Demon Clan Leader suddenly spoke, "This time, it’s our three clans that assisted the Human Clan. If our three clans do the notifying, the Human Clan may not trust us.
Let’s have our clan do it instead. Conveniently, among our Fox Clan, there’s someone with ties to the Human Clan, so let us handle it."
The other Clan Leaders expressed no opposition upon hearing this, and soon their figures disappeared into the surrounding area as they had more pressing matters to attend to. They needed to quickly inquire with their "Heaven" about the Heavenly Dao and the matters of the other world.
Human Clan, Eastern Province.
After advising Mad grass Immortal Lord and Immortal Painting Master, Cao Zhen began counseling other cultivators.
The assembly of Half-step Golden Immortals remained, either debating amongst themselves or watching Cao Zhen compete against another Half-step Golden Immortal.
On the mid-slope of a peak in Hundred Peaks Sect, Cao Zhen was instructing a Half-step Golden Immortal in the art of chess when unexpectedly, a figure named WanRenDi appeared on the peak, saying, "Master, Ju E from the Fox Monster Clan is here, and it seems she has urgent business with you."
Although WanRenDi’s voice was not loud, everyone around was of Half-step Golden Immortal Realm, and there even was the presence of Three Talent Sword Lord from the Golden Immortal Realm, who turned toward Cao Zhen upon hearing this.
Nonetheless, their expressions did not show much disdain.
After all, the Demon Clan, Beast Clan, and Insect Clan had assisted the Human Clan this time, and though it certainly was for those three clans’ interests, assistance is aiding nonetheless, so they felt no hostility upon hearing it was the Demon Clan.
"Since it’s urgent, the Clan Leader should go first."
"Yes, Clan Leader, see to it first."
The crowd did not perceive the matter to be urgent, but when Cao Zhen returned, they were all dumbfounded.
"What? So now the Sky Clan has swapped leadership!"
"Every clan has a ’Heaven,’ yet our Human Clan’s ’Heaven’ remains unknown, or perhaps our Human Clan doesn’t have a ’Heaven!’"
"And there’s another world!"
The impact of the news they received this time was immense!
"So, they say our clans must unite? Meaning we should lay past grudges aside? They assaulted our Human Clan just recently, and then say let bygones be bygones?"
"Alright, our Human Clan isn’t foolish; for the sake of all Humanity, for the sake of our side of the world, we can overlook it.
