After chatting for a while, everyone began to get to the main topic.
"Wang Long, since the Human Emperor is currently in seclusion, why would you give up such a great opportunity? With this momentum, if you could directly erase the Human Emperor's power from this world, wouldn't you no longer have to worry about any problems?"
After all, the Human Emperor's territory was too vast. They wanted to achieve a great victory, which was almost limitless, but completely uprooting them was absolutely impossible. Although their strength was not strong anymore, their numbers and other supporting treasures could still play a significant role. We feared that before we could eliminate them all, the day of his return would arrive. If we were to exhaust ourselves against the defeated soldiers of the human race at that time, we would have even less strength to counter his power after obtaining the Phoenix Play Golden Pearl. Therefore, our original plan was to attack from both sides: on one hand, we wanted to continue suppressing the Human Emperor's power; on the other hand, we intended to check out the Northern Qian Mountain Range to see if we could make a move against the Giant Clan.
"Well, the Giant Clan? That is indeed a good idea. Although the Giant Clan does not have many members, each of them possesses considerable strength. Battling them would greatly enhance the skills of your experts from Dragon City. Since that's the case, you should all be in the Northern Qian Mountain Range now, right? Why have you returned to the Southern Continent Plain?"
"We encountered the Yin Ghost Clan, and some of my subordinates suffered significant losses. This made us realize that they were likely targeting our Dragon City forces. With the enemy hidden and us exposed, we decided to withdraw our troops to avoid being taken advantage of!"
"What! The Yin Ghost Clan!" Upon hearing this name, both True Navigator and Wuxuan were taken aback. "Wang Long, let's discuss this later. Wuxuan, immediately gather all Ancient Colossal Deity-level experts from Xuanmen who are here into Sanqing Hall and let Wang Long explain what happened."
"Understood." This time it was unclear whether it was due to True Navigator's personal command or Wuxuan realizing the importance of the Yin Ghost Clan's resurgence that he no longer showed disdain towards Wang Long and his group and immediately went to summon people.
"Wang Long, Jiang Xue, everyone, since most of you are visiting my Xuanmen Grand Hall for the first time, we should have extended our hospitality first. However, what Wang Long just mentioned is too significant, and I believe you did not come here just for our vegetarian dishes. You might as well enter the main hall with me and wait for my less-than-capable junior brothers."
Wang Long and his companions certainly did not mind this. Being valued by True Navigator was what they truly needed.
The group followed True Navigator as he slowly walked toward another open area. Once Wang Long and others surrounded True Navigator, suddenly a beam of rainbow light enveloped them all and involuntarily lifted them toward a grand hall floating among the clouds.
As soon as they stabilized themselves, they found they had already entered the interior of that grand hall, which exuded an aura of tranquility and elegance.
Following True Navigator's guidance, just as Wang Long and others settled down, they saw several white spiritual lights flashing in from outside.
With their appearance, Wang Long and the others suddenly realized that the pure spiritual energy within the great hall was transforming into an immense and unmatched pressure.
Each of the more than ten white spiritual lights represented a top elder from their Xuanmen, one of the Ancient Colossal Deities! Although some had not descended from the mountain since the last Divine-Demon War, leading to an underestimation of the current strength of the Divine Clan, Wang Long could already sense from just the Xuanmen, this Major Sect, that the Divine Clan possessed formidable power capable of suppressing the Beast Clan, Demon Clan, Giant Clan, and Yin Ghost Clan.
"Greetings, Sect Master."
Even individuals of such high status had to show utmost respect in front of the True Navigator. This exemplified the strict control that the Divine Clan Sect held over its disciples! The white-haired Old Man Wuxuan Daoist was already nearly on par with the True Navigator in strength, yet he would never exhibit any arrogance or overbearing behavior at this moment.
"Please take a seat, fellow disciples. I have called you all here for an important matter to discuss, so there is no need for excessive formalities," the True Navigator said with a slight nod, signaling everyone to sit. "Wang Long, please reiterate what you mentioned earlier to these fellow disciples."
Wang Long nodded and looked around at the top elders of Xuanmen but did not see Elder Zhongxuan among them. It seemed his strength and status did not rank highly within Xuanmen.
Feeling regretful, Wang Long recounted how their scouts sent to the Northern Qian Mountain Range were completely ambushed by the Yin Ghost Clan and explained all their previous grievances with the Yin Ghost Clan. Naturally, he also included their speculations about how the Yin Ghost Clan was preparing to take advantage of the current chaos in the Divine Realm to make a comeback.
"Hmph! What utter nonsense!"
At first, Wang Long did not expect that everyone present would agree with their judgment. After all, they had not been at the scene during those events and could not adopt an outsider's perspective on how the Divine Clan had been attacked multiple times despite being pillars of the Divine Realm. Even though they had defeated the Demon Clan this time, their once unparalleled momentum since the Divine-Demon War had still faced significant challenges.
At least this time, the Demon Clan had retreated unscathed and had nearly caused a disastrous defeat for the Divine Realm through traps and ambushes.
As of today, aside from Wang Long in Feather City, the Divine Clan had failed to mount any effective counterattacks against those who had made them appear embarrassed in the Third Realm!
This was precisely why the Yin Ghost Clan was causing chaos again after being dormant for thousands of years.
It seems that the elders within the Xuanmen not only failed to recognize this point, but even after Wang Long and his companions "informed" them of this truth, they were still unwilling to believe it!
The Wuxuan Daoist fully understood that the True Navigator did not dare to act recklessly, yet when it came to Wang Long's judgment, he directly dismissed it as worthless.
"You Dragon City forces have merely had some minor interactions with a few small characters from the Yin Ghost Clan. What do you really understand about them? To make such bold predictions about their next moves based on such shallow knowledge is truly laughable! Master Zong, in my opinion, they are merely taking advantage of your recognition of their military command skills to elevate their own status. Although the Yin Ghost Clan has rarely acted over the years, our intelligence network can certainly reveal that they have made some minor moves. I believe they are simply testing the waters now that the Dragon City forces have just entered the divine realm; it is insufficient to conclude that they intend to emerge again!"
Wang Long replied calmly, "Is this elder disregarding us in Dragon City too much? I already mentioned that the Yin Ghost Clan's understanding of us is far from what it is now. They had already been to the Zero Realm before we opened the Gateway to the Abyss. The appearance of that Yin Ghost named Dizang was no coincidence! I hope the True Navigation Sect Master can trust our judgment."
"Even so, what does that matter? Even if we believe you, does that mean we should just shout that the Yin Ghost Clan is coming? What good would that do?" Another elder, who stood on the side of Wuxuan, quickly interjected when he found it hard to refute Wang Long's words.
Wang Long smiled slightly; considering their perspective, he was most pleased that they voiced this statement.
"True Navigation Sect Master, esteemed elders, we did not come here with any other demands. It is precisely because Xuanmen is one of the Four Major Sects and has a comprehensive intelligence network that we wish to seek information regarding the Yin Ghost Clan. This way, our future analyses can be well-founded."
The Wuxuan members had always thought that Wang Long and his group were either seeking an alliance or urging them to mobilize troops again. They were taken aback by such a simple request.
