Upon hearing this, Lin Jinglong's face darkened.
Tantai Yu, who was skilled at flattery and sycophancy, slammed his fist on the table.
"Li Gong, I advise you to watch your mouth. How could Mr. Lin be the Grand Elder's illegitimate son? I think you're more like Mr. Lin's illegitimate son!"
Li Gong was taken aback by Tantai Yu's fierce demeanor.
As the newly crowned Supreme Martial Emperor, he had accumulated his strength over many years and reached this level. For a long time, no one dared to speak to him in such an attitude.
He stared fiercely at Tantai Yu.
“Little girl, we haven’t finished discussing Lin Jinglong’s matter yet. Your matter will come after that. I think your hidden family is already in decline. As a member of a collateral branch, you probably don’t deserve to join the Ten Heavenly Clans. It would be best to kick you out as well.”
Tantai Yu gave a cold laugh.
"Then let's settle this with strength. Whoever loses gets out of the Ten Heavenly Clans and lets Tianlang City join, how about that?"
"Bang!"
Li Gong had a fiery temper, and he slammed his hand on the table and stood up.
"Very good, that's what I've been waiting for. So, how do you plan to fight me?"
"It's not me fighting you, it's Mr. Lin fighting you!"
Tantai Yu stood behind Lin Jinglong.
She made it clear that she was Lin Jinglong's follower, disregarding even the dignity of a strong person, and took the initiative to avoid the fight, bringing Lin Jinglong into the picture.
Everyone else looked surprised.
They looked at Lin Jinglong, who remained unassuming and unassuming.
Has this person already subdued Tantai Yu?
Even the spirit was quite surprised.
They themselves knew in their hearts that the Ten Clans of Heaven were not a stable organization and that mergers and collusion among them were inevitable.
As their strength grows and they absorb more and more heavenly secrets, even Huangfu Kong will be unable to suppress them.
But that's something for the future.
Lin Jinglong, right from the start, had already subdued one of the families and taken them under his wing?
"Isn't this against the rules?"
Even Xuanling was somewhat stunned.
He was one of the few people present who knew Lin Jinglong's strength. His gaze fell on Huangfu Kong's face, but he saw that Huangfu Kong also looked indifferent.
It's obvious they intend to let Lin Jinglong run rampant.
Li Gong also glanced at Huangfu Kong's expression. Seeing that he did not speak, he exchanged glances with Tie Hanshan.
They also realized that there was no need to hide some things. They were allies and could simply form their own faction, just like Lin Jinglong and Tantai Yu.
Tie Hanshan then said coldly, "Lin Jinglong, can her words represent your opinion?"
“If this represents your opinion, then we can resolve this matter by kicking you two out and then bringing Sirius City in.”
"On the contrary, it can expand the power of our Heavenly Dao Ten Clans."
Lin Jinglong nodded.
“What you all say makes sense. The ten clans of the Heavenly Dao should naturally speak based on strength. However, I think the Grand Elder had his reasons for not wanting Tianlang City to join from the beginning, right?”
After hearing what Lin Jinglong said.
The others also looked at Huangfu Kong with curiosity.
Bai Jingsong, the leader of the Four Spirits Society, put pressure on Lin Jinglong, but his real aim was to get an explanation from Huangfu Kong.
Otherwise, once Sirius City joins in...
Their strength can be greatly enhanced.
That wouldn't put them in such a passive position.
Huangfu Kong said in a low voice, "Since you asked, I'll just tell you. It was related to the fact that I went into a state of demonic possession back then, which led to the death of my physical body."
The others exchanged bewildered glances, wondering if there was some kind of grudge between them.
"That's not surprising, since it's a personal grudge..."
"It's not a personal grudge."
Huangfu Kong clearly didn't want them to misunderstand.
"My grudge with them is not just my personal matter, Huangfu Kong, nor is it related to the Ten Clans of the Heavenly Dao. Rather, it is because the Heavenly Wolf City has been practicing demonic arts for many years. The Heavenly Wolf City Lord, Chen Bagu, also cultivates demonic arts. However, I did not investigate his background clearly back then, so I cannot explain it to you all in detail. But I think you are aware of the dangers of demonic arts."
The Demonic Path!
Lin Jinglong and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.
"So it's the demonic path. This kind of cultivation method goes against the natural order. More importantly, demonic cultivators are very prone to losing control. If Chen Bagu were to cultivate demonic arts, he would be an uncontrollable time bomb. It's reasonable to prevent him from joining."
Everyone else looked relieved.
The Spirit Master opposite him had a flicker in his eyes, as if he was pondering another question.
That was their Xuanling Temple, which was actually connected to the demonic path. It wasn't because of those fierce auras; they were simply a natural force that existed naturally over time. Huangfu Kong didn't mind.
"However, if Huangfu Kong or others find out about Master's situation, it could cause trouble."
The Spirit Master's eyes flickered, and he dared not say more.
When he looked up again, he saw Lin Jinglong looking at him with a half-smile, and he couldn't help but snort coldly.
Lin Jinglong knew nothing, and the Spirit Master wasn't worried about being seen through by Lin Jinglong, but he was still a little uncomfortable with Lin Jinglong's gaze.
Then, Huangfu Kong offered another explanation.
In particular, it highlighted one thing.
"Sirius City has already connected with multiple forces, and their provocations are expected to come soon. In the meantime, you should at least not fight each other."
"If you feel that someone is unworthy of their title, you should wait until the plan for Sirius City fails before making a decision."
"Did you all understand?"
His gaze fell on Tie Hanshan, Li Gong, and Bai Jingsong, who were the most hostile forces towards Lin Jinglong.
The group avoided Huangfu Kong's gaze.
He glanced at Lin Jinglong, feeling a desire to settle scores with him later, but dared not object to Huangfu Kong.
After all, the strength of this Grand Elder has been fully proven, as evidenced by the lives of five top experts.
While they were still discussing how to handle the aftermath...
A man rushed in from outside; it was Long Qi. He transmitted some information to Huangfu Kong.
This prompted Elder Huangfu Kong to immediately terminate the meeting.
"It seems that Sirius City is moving faster than us. Let's stop discussing and break their move first, then deal with Sirius City."
"What did Sirius City do?"
Everyone stood up.
Huangfu Kong's gaze swept over everyone.
"They brought the forces they had connected to the council hall where we are, and they also dragged Chen Xifeng's body over here."
"What? They're actually this arrogant?"
The crowd rushed to the windows.
They looked down and found that at least a thousand martial artists had indeed gathered in the square outside.
Meanwhile, Chen Xifeng, the head of the Chen family, who was originally one of the ten clans of the Heavenly Dao, had his body dumped in the square and left to rot!
In addition, there were the corpses of hundreds of Chen family martial artists!
