111: Chapter 110 Discussing how to deal with the Soul Clan, each with their own agenda

At this moment, the Ling Clan stepped forward and said they were willing to protect them, even if the price was handing over all of the Shi Clan's resources, they would agree.

Just then, Gu Yuan also arrived.

"I am Gu Yuan, Clan Chief of the Gu Clan. If you all do not mind, my Gu Clan would also be very happy to welcome you."

Clearly, Gu Yuan also wanted to inherit the Shi Clan's resources.

Among the remaining Dou Di Clans, the strongest were undoubtedly the Gu Clan and the Ling Clan.

And now, both Clans were extending an olive branch to the survivors of the Shi Clan.

Ling Yuan glanced at Gu Yuan, feeling somewhat displeased.

Old thing, daring to come and compete with me, sooner or later I will destroy the Gu Clan.

Although there was now an extra Gu Clan competing with him, Ling Yuan was not too worried.

Who among the Dou Di Clans didn't know about the Gu Clan's reputation?

It was completely rotten.

The last one who sought help from the Gu Clan did not have a good ending.

The survivors of the Shi Clan clearly knew this too.

Therefore, they excluded the Gu Clan without hesitation.

The Ling Clan, at the very least, had saved them.

Without Ling Yuan and Zhu Kun arriving in time, all of these people would have died.

Thus, defecting to the Ling Clan undoubtedly became their best choice.

At this moment, the middle-aged man with the highest Realm in the Shi Clan stepped forward.

He bowed towards Ling Yuan: "Young Clan Leader Ling, we are willing to offer up all of the Shi Clan's resources, only asking that the Ling Clan protect the Bloodline of my Shi Clan!"

Gu Yuan watched from the side, gnashing his teeth in hatred towards Ling Yuan.

Damn it, to think this kid beat me to it!

Now that Ling Yuan had gained the recognition of the Shi Clan, this was a legitimate inheritance of the Shi Clan's resources.

Even if the Gu Clan was unhappy, they dared not do anything.

Forcibly take them?

Didn't you see Zhu Kun standing nearby?

After returning to the Clan, Ling Yuan told Ling Mie about the news regarding the Shi Clan, which included the matter of taking in the Shi Clan survivors.

Ling Mie was still investigating the matter of Ling Niu.

Now there was no need to investigate; the answer had already emerged on its own.

Since the Void Swallowing Flame had joined the Hun Clan, then Ling Niu was undoubtedly a mole planted by the Hun Clan in the Ling Clan.

Ling Mie was furious at the Hun Clan's act of planting a mole, but at the same time, he was very fortunate that the destroyed clan was not their Ling Clan.

Ling Mie praised Ling Yuan's actions:

"You did very well in taking in the survivors of the Shi Clan, not letting the Gu Clan succeed. Otherwise, the Gu Clan, having obtained the Shi Clan's resources, would likely have seen their strength swell again. I will arrange a place for them to live next."

Ling Yuan: "By the way, Dad, there is one more thing. Hun Tiandi wants to cooperate with Zhu Kun, planning to share the Opportunity after gathering the ancient jade to open the Immortal Cave."

Ling Mie frowned: "Zhu Kun agreed?"

He knew Hun Tiandi's character all too well; he would stop at nothing to achieve his goals, was ruthless and vicious. Cooperating with such a person was simply not a wise move, and with the slightest carelessness, one would be bitten back.

Ling Yuan nodded, indicating that Ling Mie's guess was correct.

Ling Mie said in a deep voice: "Cooperating with Hun Tiandi is too risky. You should go and persuade Zhu Kun to not agree for now. When you have grown stronger, we can plan together; that would be safer."

"Dad, I have the same intention. I was thinking of letting the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan feign cooperation with Hun Tiandi, appearing to cooperate with the Hun Clan in gathering the ancient jade, while secretly investigating the Hun Clan's movements and figuring out their plans. This will make it convenient for us to prepare in advance and also buy some time."

Ling Mie's eyes lit up, and he praised: "This idea is not bad. You can discuss it with Zi Yan first and have her come forward to persuade Zhu Kun to wait a few more years, until your strength has improved, and then act together."

The temptation of the Breakthrough to Dou Di was too great; Zhu Kun would definitely not be able to resist it.

Ling Mie was increasingly satisfied with his son; aside from his strength not being enough, he was fully capable of serving as the Clan Chief!

"I understand, Dad." Ling Yuan nodded in agreement; he thought the same.

Zhu Kun might not listen to him, but he would definitely listen to Zi Yan's words.

Thinking of Gu Yuan, Ling Mie continued: "It is not just Hun Tiandi; Gu Yuan's words are also untrustworthy. Now that we have the help of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, our Ling Clan is temporarily safe. Let those other Clans fight it out."

The thoughts of this father and son were almost identical; both intended to stall for time, dragging it out year by year.

It would be best to drag it out until both father and son had reached the Nine-Star Dou Sheng Realm before taking action; that would be the safest approach.

Next, Ling Yuan took Zi Yan to conduct some psychological preparation for Zhu Kun.

Ling Yuan embellished his analysis and said to Zhu Kun: "I suddenly thought of one thing. It is highly likely that the Hun Clan destroyed the Shi Clan to frame you..."

After listening to Ling Yuan's analysis, Zhu Kun was instantly furious: "Damn Hun Tiandi, he really is up to no good. Next time, I must give him a taste of his own medicine!"

Gu Yuan had no choice but to choose to spread the news that the Shi Clan had been destroyed by the Hun Clan.

This piece of news could be described as world-shaking.

Among the Dou Di Clans, there had not been any large-scale conflict for thousands of years; everyone had been living in peace.

No one expected that once a conflict appeared, it would be a disaster that wiped out a clan.

Well, the Shi Clan now had fewer than two hundred people left, and the strongest among them was only at the Dou Zong Realm; it was no different from being wiped out.

Gu Yuan called the Clan Chiefs of all the clans to discuss this matter.

At the meeting, Gu Yuan spoke first, advocating for all the clans to unite and sanction the Hun Clan together.

The Nine-Star Dou Sheng Void Swallowing Flame joining the Hun Clan had already caused the Hun Clan's strength to surpass that of the Gu Clan, which indeed put some pressure on Gu Yuan.

As for why it was a sanction rather than destroying the Hun Clan, that was because Gu Yuan knew that was not very realistic.

Although the Alliance of several clans was powerful on the surface, their hearts were not united.

Each clan had its own intentions and wanted to conserve its own strength, not wanting to pay too much for the Alliance. It was too difficult to completely destroy the deep-rooted Hun Clan.

For example, right now, the Gu, Yan, Lei, and Yao Clans all agreed and wanted to have a confrontation with the Hun Clan.

Even if they couldn't destroy the Hun Clan, being able to kill some of the Hun Clan's experts, weaken the Hun Clan's strength, and make the Hun Clan quiet down would count as achieving their goal.

The meeting was very lively, with the Clan Chiefs of each clan expressing their own opinions. However, Ling Mie remained silent, never stating his position, just sitting on the side and listening quietly.

Seeing this, Gu Yuan asked: "Clan Chief Ling Mie, what is your opinion?"

Other Clan Chiefs also chimed in: "That's right, Clan Chief Ling Mie. The Hun Clan's actions this time are clearly targeted at all the Dou Di Clans. Only by giving the Hun Clan a lesson will they calm down and not dare to act lightly again."

"Clan Chief Ling Mie, can you come forward and get the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan to join?"

In the end, what everyone cared about more was whether the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan would take action.

With Zhu Kun's joining, the Alliance would have much more confidence, and dealing with the Hun Clan would also be easier.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Ling Mie could no longer be a transparent person and could only speak slowly:

"Now that the Soul Realm has been relocated by Hun Tiandi, we don't even know where the Soul Realm is. If we cannot find the entrance to the Soul Realm, no matter how much we discuss, it will all be futile. It would be better to send people to investigate everywhere first, find the entrance to the Soul Realm, and then make plans."
