As the only half-step Innate Lord, Liang He's words were the equivalent of law.
No matter what the other supreme Elders were doing previously, they all instantly dropped what they were doing to come here.
Before even starting the meeting, each of these top figures all had fiendish grins gracing their lips.
Small talks passed around, which were the likes of, "The Hong Clan really are fearing us. It's almost pathetic to see their appearance now."
"Naturally. Crushing the Kong Clan is us telling them they're next after all, haha."
For just this meeting, a joyous atmosphere permeated the conference hall.
Under standard times, these supreme Elders wouldn't get along so harmoniously. Their arrogance and pride usually clash, causing minor disputes to occasionally happen.
But for today, each of them was in a good mood. After all, their conquest for the tribal domain was coming along incomparably smoothly!
They all have wild ambitions to go even beyond the Tribal Domain, working their way up to the areas just outside of Azure Lightning City!
As they all settled in, Liang He coldly coughed. Just his slight hum commanded an unstoppable power to engulf the room.
Innate Aura is a power that even the strongest of Peak Profound Soul warriors can't ever contend against.
The only woman and the only bald man in the meeting were the two Peak Stage Profound Soul Powerhouses. And their foreheads nearly dripped with sweat just from that cough.
In that instance, everyone instantly quiets down.
With the attention all on him, Liang He settled his sights on the bald man, asking him, "Elder Jin, has the Kong Clan shown sign of submitting yet? Surely with this number of destroyed bases, his Will should've considerably weakened."
With an Innate Lord pressure on him, Liang Jin had to silently revolve just a small portion of Qi to stay calm.
Under a clearer mind, he sorted through all the memories swirling his mind. A moment later, his expression scrunched, his eyes flashing with disdain.
He said, "I can't tell if it was amazing or foolish, but that stubborn fellow is still intensely resisting us. He's putting his all into reaching half-step Innate Lord, practically ignoring everything that's occurring to his Clan."
"Heh? Really? He's still trying for that?"
Liang Xi, the only woman in the room, chuckled as if she had just heard the greatest joke in the world.
The other supreme Elders also felt the surge of amusement run through them.
Attempting to reach half-step Innate Lord?
Does this guy truly thinks he's some kind of genius?!
A shoddy Martial Talent like him is only embarrassing himself with that useless determination.
"Oh, I can tell why he's so desperately trying. When we wrung out their decorated half-step Innate Lord ancestor, he must've left some secrets when he came out from hiding! Whatever guide he let down, that man is probably trying to desperately perceive it."
"Hmph. Is such a thing truly possible? Whatever essence that depicted ancestor has probably become muddled throughout the years. Since he's like this, why not just kill him?"
The other supreme Elders threw out their opinions.
Liang He only took a moment to consider their opinions before turning back to Liang Je, asking him, "How is the Slave Seal coming along? I trust that has made some decent progress?"
"This…" Liang Je's expression turned a bit complicated. "Leader, the World Spirit Master gave us the bare bones of that technique. Even with our combined might, it's incredibly hard to perceive it. At our current status, wanting to plant a Slave Seal in the Kong Clan leader may just end up killing him anyway."
For a few moments, Liang He fell into deep contemplation. As arrogant, domineering, and merciless he may be, he's also a cautious person.
Wanting to lay waste to the Hong Clan and claim the Tribal Domain as their own will be far more complicated than what others think.
Liang He agrees that the Kong Clan leader is a desperate old fool. But also a valuable one that will be perfect to use.
Soon enough, Liang He arrived at a reasonable conclusion. "We will do it like this. Your squadron will pour all of your efforts into completing the Slave Seal. But, in a week, if you can't do it, we will strike the Leader down. He may be just one, but the prowess he has is quite formidable. We can't leave a potential threat like him around."
Naturally, Liang He's orders are law. None of the other Supreme Elders raised any disagreement.
Although, Liang Je was undoubtedly feeling the pressure. Failing this task can end up being considerably terrible for his future.
In this instance, Liang Je opened his mouth to speak. But before he even could, a brilliant green light engulfed the entire conference room!
'Ca!'
An audible cracking noise resounded in everyone's ears, booming like great drums. The space in this room completely shattered.
"What?!?"
Everyone flashed to their feet, their Qi quickly revolving throughout their bodies. Each of them was absolutely horrified.
A form of energy none of them had ever felt before made an absolute mess of their Spirit Sense!
Under this energy, they all felt so minuscule. As if they were just mere ants under a great crashing tidal wave.
For a brief moment, the top figures of the Liang Tribe, people who hold tremendous pride above the heavens, felt utterly hopeless.
Nobody could summon any courage to directly counter just whatever this random threat was. They all lagged, allowing three presences to suddenly appeared right in the middle of the conference room.
As the bright green light dispersed, three figures had suddenly appeared right upon the extensive table.
When the supreme Elders and Liang He gazed upon the sudden intruders, utter horror filled their faces.
"Th-th-Crimson Sea?! World Spirit Master Branch?!?"
None of them could suppress their shocks, loudly blurting out their disbelief.
Indeed, standing tall and proud on the table were three gorgeous youths.
These youths wore the unique uniforms of the Crimson Sea Academy, showcasing their immense status there. And two of the youths wore bright green badges with the trademark symbol from the World Spirit Master Branch.
Naturally, this trio of youths was Cain, Kali, and Amber.
Standing right in the middle of enemy territory, none of them expressed even the slightest bit of tension.
Amber lazily glanced over the supreme Elder before quickly losing interest and settling on Liang He. She blatantly disregarded them all.
As for Kali, her frosty gaze intently pierced through each Supreme Elders. She didn't summon even the slightest portion of energy. Her icy Natural Aura simply covered them all, shrouding the supreme Elders in a chilling storm.
Under this gaze, each supreme Elders couldn't suppress a slight shiver creeping up their spines.
Without even sensing her cultivation, the supreme Elders already felt faintly suppressed by her! Just what kind of terrifying genius is this?! It was like she was in a league above all other geniuses they witnessed before.
While the supreme Elders were warped with shock, Cain didn't pay any of them any heed. He kept his chillingly indifferent gaze locked square on Liang He.
In this situation, Cain was going to take complete control. He didn't want any mishaps to occur.
Without giving the Liang He or the other supreme Elders time to process anything, Cain immediately spoke up, "So, this is the Liang Tribe central base, huh? You know, we've heard about your exploits all around the Tribal Domain. Ruining the Kong Clan to this point….you're all quite ruthless, no?"
His words shocked the supreme Elders and Liang He out of their stunned stupor.
Before anyone could think of a reaction, Liang He swept his gaze over all supreme Elders.
His eyes were dead cold, informing them all to not make even the slightest of moves. He wasn't sure how this was possible or why such top-level figures were suddenly intruding on them, but now wasn't the time to think.
He simply had to react as accordingly as possible!
Under Liang He's intense gaze, the supreme Elder stayed still, almost like a statue. None of them dared to even breathe wrong.
Liang He quickly snapped his attention back on Cain, put on his beast humble smile, and said, "Esteemed guess, we're just trying to do all our to survive in this cruel environment. It's either them or us. And we had to take according action."
As Liang He spoke, he discerned the trio's cultivation Auras. One was at Late Stage Profound Soul, while the other was simply two Early Stages.
Though they have an average cultivation level, their foundation was immensely deep!
Liang He was internally shocked. Out of the thousands of Martial cultivators he's seen, nobody has much of a deep foundation like this trio!
Sensing their Qi Seed was the equivalent of sensing a vast ocean.
A genius like Amber could be reason. There were many well-known genius freaks coming from Crimson Sea Academy.
But why does two young World Spirit Master have this incredibly deep foundation?
Questions pilled in Liang He's mind, but he didn't dare to make any rash decisions.
This trio may be separated by miles from the City, but he didn't doubt the World Spirit Master Branch could instantly catch wind of them.
Liang He personally knows of the horrifying means all World Spirit Masters possess.
"Is that right? Just for survival, huh?" Kali's lips curled into a haughty sneer. "Still, your growth is far too unnatural. Entertain us, just what valuable secrets are you withholding from us?"
As they heard her question, the supreme Elders and Liang He's expression tightened. Even under immense status pressure like this, wanting to just reveal all of their secrets is too much!
This is practically outright domination!
But then again, only those from the World Spirit Master Branch can act so arrogantly like this. They have the means to always stay in contact with each other, so why should they worry about anything else?
As the supreme Elders and Liang He understood this, a sickening knot gradually twisted in the pits of their guts.
The supreme Elders still kept quiet though their hearts were quickly speeding up.
While Liang He's minds flashed with countless ideas. And within just a moment, a brilliant idea surfaced.
Keeping his humble smile, Liang He said, "Ah esteemed guess, we are just blessed to have so many great treasures passed down by our ancient ancestors. This helped us form several connections with other World Spirit Masters. And one of our greatest secrets we can actually graciously gift to you."
Cain, Kali, and Amber were a bit intrigued.
They subconsciously recalled the ancient Liang Heaven Family tale, matching it to how quickly rising the current Liang Tribe is.
If this legend were to be accurate and somehow those ancestors found a way to preserve their secrets all this time, their treasure certainly wouldn't be small at all.
With legitimate intrigue filling his tone, Cain practically commanded, "Show it to us.. We are very interested in these kinds of treasures."
