Beastmaster of the Ages

se.
Who better to hold the Grand-Orient Sword? After all, it was Tianming who had seized the sword so he had the right to decide who to give it to.
With his position as junior sect master, the elders wouldn’t object.

”Congratulations, Shaoqing. ” Weisheng Tianlan was sincerely happy for his old friend.

The Skycloud Seaheron drew close.
Led by Weisheng Tianlan, the members of the Southsky Sect boarded the Aircloud Godcrane.
Both the crane and heron were traveling back to their respective sects at their fastest speed.

”Sect Master, there’s certain things that must be said.
If you won’t, then I will. ” Gu Qiuyu stood out of the crowd looking solemn.
He turned to the Grand-Orient Sect and said, ”This time, Heaven’s Elysium’s intention is very obvious.
Apart from fighting to our deaths, the Southsky Sect also has the choice of submission.
This is the difference between us and you, especially since your junior sect master was bold enough to kill the once-in-a-millenium genius of Heaven ’s Elysium.
They’ll never let you live.
You should be very clear that our advantage lies in our defense, and that’s dependent upon the Azure Sea.
We don ’t have the strength to support you at all.
Once we leave the sea, it’s only too easy for Heaven’s Elysium to deal with us.
So if you can ’t protect yourself, there’s nothing we can do.
The Southsky Sect has existed for thousands of years and has always been peaceful.
We can ’t ruin our ten-thousand-year history just because of you.
If we can ’t hold out, then we’ll choose to submit! I know that our sect master won’t agree, but millions of people shouldn ’t have to die for the sect master ’s willfulness! ”

The last sentence was directed at Weisheng Tianlan.
This was a challenge laid at Weisheng Tianlan; as long as these elders used their ten-thousand-year existence as a basis and stood on a moral high ground with their disciples ’ lives, his resistance was meaningless if enough elders chose to surrender.

”Gu Qiuyu! The Southsky Sect and Grand-Orient Sect share the same origin, and a common fate.
Even I know this.
You kneel before the war has even begun! Are you a worthy first elder? You disgust me! ” The first person to denounce Gu Qiuyu was Weisheng Qingluan.

”How dare you! ” Gu Qiuyu couldn’t wait to slap the little guy.
Even if he was the son of the sect master, Weisheng Qingluan wasn’t allowed to speak to him like this!

”He’s right.
The past ten thousand years were won by our ancestors fighting bravely as well as their persistence, instead of begging for mercy while being humiliated, trampled upon, and dragging out an ignoble existence! Yet here you are, weak-kneed before we’ve even fought the war.
How will you face the ancestral tablets in the ancestral hall! ” Weisheng Ruosu backed up her brother without any fear in her eyes.
The siblings were truly amazing.

Prior to this, the two had been polite, sensible children.
Gu Qiuyu never imagined that they would one day anger him so.

”That’s enough!” Sikong Lingyu quickly took them aside.
This wasn’t an occasion where they could speak.
But even so, the siblings’ fiery gazes had made Gu Qiuyu more uncomfortable.

”Once we return to the sect, I’ll speak to the council of elders and the entire sect.
When the time comes, whether we choose to fight to our death or be reduced to running dogs will naturally be decided.
Gu Qiuyu, you don ’t have to preach in front of the Grand-Orient Sect. ”

Upon hearing Weisheng Tianlan ’s cold reply, Elder Gu finally shut up.

One man was nothing.
However, how many such people would constantly circulate these kinds of remarks during battle, leading to the decline of the sect’s combat power? These were issues he had to consider.
His young age was another obstruction to convincing the elders, and this matter of life and death would be the biggest test of his ability.

Weisheng Tianlan privately spoke to Ye Shaoqing for a considerable amount of time.

”Perhaps he’s our only hope,” he lamented.

”You must believe in him.
He has suffered for the past fourteen years what thousands of people will never experience in an entire lifetime.
The heavens will not wrong him, ” said Ye Shaoqing.

”After this test of life and death, I hope we’ll still be able to sit together and drink as we admire the moon, ” added Weisheng Tianlan.

”It ’s a pity that you married folk can no longer have fun.
There’s plenty of fish in the sea, why settle for one? ” Ye Shaoqing laughed.

”Get out! ”

Weisheng Tianlan returned to the Skycloud Seaheron.
At a certain point, the crane and heron went their separate ways, one headed east and the other south.

”The day we reunite is the day we celebrate our victory! ”

They had once hoped only to overturn defeat in the Realm Wars.
But now they wanted to make a comeback and compete with their old rivals.

Even at the breakneck speed the Aircloud Godcrane was flying, it would still take over a day to reach their destination.
But it would take a few days for Heaven’s Elysium’s army to arrive.
After all, it wasn’t just a group of people, but entire hordes.

A tense atmosphere pervaded above the crane.
A storm was imminent.
