Chapter 2309: On the Move

On the same day, the Nine Palace Golden Immortal Sect and the Ancient Bodhi Temple were holding secret meetings

Heaven Highness Feibao took the leading seat in a Forbidden Land that belonged to the Nine Palace Golden Immortal Sect. The rest of the Rulers of Dao, Masters of Dao, and young talents took their seats respectively.

"Apart from Cang and Ye Zhaoxian, the Li w.a.n.g Alliance, the Xu Clan, Zheng Clan, and the Tribe of the Immortal Spirits have sent us a message to organize a meeting with us so we would join them..." a Ruler of Dao said and listed the conditions given by the factions.

The crowd discussed among themselves. Some agreed with the conditions. Others disagreed.

"Alright! That's enough!"

Heaven Highness Feibao slammed the armrest on his chair and said with a smile, "We'll stick to our initial plan. We won't join hands or provoke anyone. We'll focus on expanding our business. As for Qin Nan, we will neither help nor harm him."

Many Rulers of Dao and Masters of Dao frowned.

Heaven Highness Feibao withdrew his smile and said, "Remember, time is changing rapidly. We might end up as someone's p.a.w.n and suffer terrible consequences on either side we choose! We might not be a powerhouse by remaining neutral, but we can at least guarantee our own safety."

Prolonging the peace of their faction was enough.

Similarly, Buddha Mingxin was sitting at the front of an ancient praying ground. The others stood around him holding their palms together.

"I think we should try harder as the world is suffering. We should raise the principles of Buddhism to the top..."

"I disagree. I'm afraid Cang and Ye Zhaoxian has claimed the top of the world with their return. Our Ancient Bodhi Temple has no chance of competing with them. Perhaps we should join hands with them and become a Bodhi Sect under their alliance..."

The Buddhas were arguing with one another.

In the end, Buddha Mingxin uttered a chant which echoed across the place to quieten everyone down.

He said with a smile, "The three options you all gave aren't suitable. We should remain neutral like the Nine Palace Golden Immortal Sect."

"On top of it, the whole Nine Heavens Immortal Realm is shaken, leaving the cultivators in fear. Why don't we take the opportunity to recruit them?"

"It might lead the Ancient Bodhi Temple to destruction one day, but by then, we would have spread the seeds of Buddhism across the Primary Upper Realm."

"The path of Buddhism shall remain forever in this world."

"Amitabha!"

Buddha Mingxin placed his palms together.

Unlike these two factions, the Tribe of Immortal Spirits, Mumen Sect, Zheng Clan, Xu Clan, Heaven Highness Anxiao, and Heaven Highness Yangling were conspiring in the dark.

Most of them had displayed their stance to Cang and Ye Zhaoxian.

They would not let Qin Nan go if they stumbled into him!

Meanwhile, somewhere deep in the City of Darkness in the Battlefield of Aeon...

Ever since the Four Demon Ruler achieved the Heaven Highness Realm, the left seat among the three seats at the front that had remained unoccupied for a long time was taken for the first time.

Moxie, Demon Emperor Wutian, Brave Wolf Ruler, and the Lord of the City were seated on both sides.

There was now a difference in their status.

Four Demon Heaven Highness shook the cup in his hand and said, "You have targeted Tang Qingshan first then Empress Feiyue to force our master to merge with his flesh? Moxie, that's your brilliant idea? We can't even find Empress Feiyue now!"

He threw the cup on the ground. It smashed into pieces.

A strong aura surged wildly. The entire hall shook vigorously.

The auras of Moxie, Demon Emperor Wutian, and the others were weak in comparison.

Moxie retained his smile and said, "Master Four Demon, no one would have expected the accident in the Blue Heavens. However, I believe we will be able to find Empress Feiyue to fulfill our plan with a little effort."

Four Demon Heaven Highness uttered coldly before Moxie could finish his sentence, "Silence!"

Demon Emperor Wutian's expression s.h.i.+fted. He was about to lose his anger when he suddenly thought how his master had failed to achieve anything ever since their master's return. The relations.h.i.+p between them and their master had even worsened gradually.

He chose to remain silent.

Perhaps his master had gotten old.

The other Rulers of Dao remained silent.

In the past, Moxie's status was superior to theirs. Moxie's status was still higher prior to the establishment of the G.o.d Breath's Battlefield.

But it was different now.

The leaders of every formidable faction were now in the Heaven Highness Realm!

If they did not have a Heaven Highness, they would either have to submit to other factions or wait to be destroyed.

Moxie's expression froze, but he soon recovered his smile and said, "Master Four Demon, what do you have in mind?"

Four Demon Heaven Highness harrumphed coldly with a red flicker in his eyes, "It's simple. We'll find an excuse to lure Qin Nan out of the Undying Cycle Mountain! We'll bring Qin Nan back with force and force him to find the Immortal Demon's flesh and merge with it!"

Moxie shouted angrily, "Four Demon, how dare you? You are going to use force on our master? Are you going to betray him?"

There was a difference between master and servants!

Under no circ.u.mstances must servants act against their master.

Four Demon Heaven Highness said with a cold grin, "Moxie, are you really still so stubborn? Aren't you aware of our situation now? If we don't let master merge with his flesh before Cang achieves the Heaven Highness Realm, we will suffer unimaginable consequences!"

"I'm doing it for our master's sake. He won't blame me even when he knows later..."

"Besides..."

"Qin Nan is still not my master now!"

Four Demon Heaven Highness paused briefly and looked at Demon Emperor Wutian and the others. He said, "What do the rest of you think?"

Demon Emperor Wutian's body stiffened when he noticed Moxie's look at him, but he still nodded in the end.

No one said anything to disagree with Four Demon Heaven Highness.

Moxie's heart turned cold.

He was not being stubborn. He was clear that if they crossed the line once, they would cross more lines in the future. It was the same as breaking a rule. If they broke it once, there was most likely a second time and more.

Four Demon Heaven Highness looked at Mo Xie and said, "Since no one has anything to say, you and Brave Wolf, and the City Lord will contact Qin Nan while I handle the rest in the dark!"
