"But you know, this is impossible." The middle-aged man's mouth became even more bitter.
The old figure was a little hunched. "Chief, are you really going to give up on him? This is the future of our tribe! Although he is not a member of our tribe, with his character, he has already considered himself a member of our tribe. If we can protect him, within twenty years, our tribe will prosper!"
"Great Elder, I understand everything you said, but have you ever thought about how much our clan will have to pay if I choose to save him?" the middle-aged man asked with a wry smile.
"this……"
The old figure seemed even more hunched.
"The demons are not tolerated by the world. Although he is innocent, you have to understand that not everyone is as tolerant as us. Those so-called universal saviors and those known for their tolerance also advocate killing him, don't they? Generally speaking, although the child is innocent, others are unwilling to let him go." said the middle-aged man.
"So regarding this matter...what is their attitude?" the old figure suddenly asked.
"What else can I do? I've sent messages many times, but there's been no reply. If I hadn't been closely watched, I would have gone and asked in person long ago. But there's no need now. Their attitude is very ambiguous, and they probably won't get involved." The middle-aged man seemed a little tired. He sat down and rubbed his brow.
"Don't they want to take the young lady as a saint?"
"Yes, why are you talking about this suddenly?" the middle-aged man looked at the old figure and asked.
"You haven't agreed yet?"
"No! Now that something like this has happened, there's no time to talk about this. Besides, they haven't even shown any attitude towards Xiao Yuan, and they still want to accept my daughter into the sect? Not to mention some bullshit saint, even if she becomes the sect master, I won't be happy with her!"
The old figure couldn't help but smile bitterly as he looked at the clan leader who was swearing.
"Hehe, isn't this great? Why don't the clan leader just agree to the Holy Sect directly?" the old figure suggested.
"Oh? Great Elder, what do you want to say?"
The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows, feeling that the elder seemed to have something else in his words.
"Hey, Patriarch, the Holy Sect has a Hades Bell. Have you forgotten about it?"
"The Hades Bell? The ninth-grade holy artifact of the Holy Sect? Why are you mentioning this?" the middle-aged man asked with a frown.
"I have a plan in mind. It might be a little risky, but it might not be a bad idea for Xiao Yuan!"
The middle-aged man's eyes showed joy, "Hurry up and tell me!"
―――――― (dividing line)
Holy Emperor
"Master, there's a letter from the Chi clan leader."
In the hall, the old man sitting on the main seat had his eyes slightly closed. His gray hair and beard did not make him look old. Instead, he looked quite energetic, with an immortal-like air.
"Okay, just leave it there." The old man said lightly.
The visitor held the letter in his hand and looked hesitantly at the table beside him, where dozens of identical envelopes were piled up.
"Master, the messenger said that the Chi clan leader asked you to open this letter."
The old man on the main seat suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Bring it up."
"You should leave now."
When I opened the envelope, there was only a piece of paper inside with a few short sentences written on it.
But the old man's expression became uglier the more he read the letter, and in the end he burned it.
"This guy is quite courageous!"
The old man rubbed his forehead with a headache and sighed, "This little fellow is not destined to die. Well, what if I lend him to you?"
"Someone come!"
"metropolitan!"
"Who was the messenger? Did he leave?" the old man asked.
"The person who delivered the letter was a young man. He must have transformed himself, so I couldn't see him clearly."
"Oh? Let him in." said the old man.
The man retreated, and after a while, a young man walked in behind him.
Then the man slowly retreated, and only the young man and the old man were left in the hall.
"You are quite courageous, you dare to come to my sect when we are threatened?" The old man said speechlessly while looking at the young man.
The young man was not surprised at all, a smile appeared on his face, and he suddenly transformed into the middle-aged man!
"Chi Hao, you want to borrow my clan's Mingshen Bell. It seems that you are going to do something about it?" asked the old man.
"Shengxuzi, don't tell me nonsense. I have written you so many letters and you haven't even replied! Just tell me directly, do you want to lend it to me or not?" Chi Hao asked directly.
The old man's name was Shengxuzi.
"The Nether God Bell is one of the four sacred artifacts of our sect. It is a sacred object that guards an area. How can you borrow it just like that?" Shengxuzi said lightly.
"Hey, you old bastard, if you didn't want to lend it to me you wouldn't let me in. Hurry up!" Chi Hao said with a sneer.
Shengxuzi shook his head, looking helpless.
"Have you really thought it through?"
"I say, why are you talking so much nonsense, old man? No one can stop me from doing what I, Chi Hao, am going to do!" Chi Hao said cursing.
"Forget it. This matter is of great importance. That guy helped me a lot back then, so I'll just give it back to him now! I know what you want to do by borrowing the Hades Bell. I can agree to it, but you have to agree to two conditions."
"You say!" Chi Hao was very straightforward.
"First, regardless of whether this matter succeeds or not, Yu'er will join our sect. When she reaches adulthood, she will directly become our sect's Saint."
"This is originally a condition of exchange, so of course I agree to it. What about the second one?" Chi Hao asked.
The old man's expression grew serious. "To put it more seriously, what you're about to do is truly utterly condemned by the world. That guy did me a favor back then, and I can't repay that kindness by harming his son. However, my Holy Sect has been passed down for thousands of years, and you know our attitude towards the demons. So, I can't make the final decision on this matter. I'll find a way to give you the Nether God Bell, but I can't help you with anything else."
"It's enough to give me the Hades Bell!" said Chi Hao.
"Well, the Underworld Bell is the symbol of our Holy Sect. You know, it must not be exposed. It must be returned immediately after use. Otherwise, those old immortals in the sect will not let it go. If they find out, even if this plan fails, your Chi Clan and I will be in the spotlight."
"Don't worry, I understand this!"
"Well, that's it. I'll try not to send some of the people in the sect out when the time comes. It can be considered as a small favor to you."
"Hehe, Shengxuzi, I didn't expect you to be so loyal. Okay! It's settled then. I'm leaving!"
Chi Hao's figure disappeared on the spot without leaving any trace.
"Projection? No wonder you dare to come to my Holy Sect."
Shengxuzi smiled and murmured.
"Come here, call the fifth elder!"
…
Chi Clan
Chi Hao slowly opened his eyes, and a slight curve appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Chief, did it succeed?" the Great Elder asked excitedly.
"Well! The old fellow Shengxuzi still has some conscience and has agreed to lend us the Hades Bell." Chi Hao said with a smile.
