Chapter 1544: Chapter 800: Scheme

In such circumstances, be it the many Golden Core Stage cultivators present or the more powerful and high-ranking Yan Qingsheng, all exercised a certain degree of restraint towards each other.

Thus, after a moment of silence in the atmosphere, someone finally couldn’t hold back anymore.

As silence reigned, a late-stage Golden Core cultivator spoke: “Second Elder, Jinfeng Country’s Liang Family and the Yang Clan, including the Wei Kingdom Lin Family, have brazenly defied the Blood Red Alliance’s orders, reaching an unforgivable level.”

“Moreover, Jiang Haifeng and Wang Qiyong both died at the hands of that genius cultivator from the Lin Family.”

“Now, this news has spread throughout various regions of Qingzhou, sparking a lot of discussion among cultivators, causing us to lose face in the Blood Red Alliance.”

“Under such circumstances, for the sake of our Blood Red Alliance’s dignity and our authority, even if you, Second Elder, do not speak, I am confident none of us juniors will stand idly by.”

As soon as these words fell, numerous cultivators immediately voiced their agreement.

“Chen’s words are reasonable, we all agree with them.”

“Indeed, for the sake of our Blood Red Alliance’s dignity, and to uphold our authority, we must make those Golden Elixir Forces pay a heavy price.”

“Otherwise, we would be ashamed to face the predecessors of the Blood Red Alliance!”

“…”

In the cascade of agreement, Yan Qingsheng nodded in satisfaction, pleased with the reactions of the numerous cultivators.

However, the words of these cultivators were merely superficial; no one was willing to truly commit to this affair.

It was evident that none of these people were foolish and they understood that under the current situation, they could only go along with Yan Qingsheng out of respect.

As for dealing with someone as powerful and with fearsome prowess as the God of Slaughter, Lin Tianming, no one was willing to take on such a hot potato.

At the very least, the situation was not very clear at the moment.

Under such conditions, even if these people were tempted by the True Dragon Fruit and willing to take a risk.

No one was willing to be the first to step forward when it came down to it.

After all, if they did not take on this matter, it would be nearly impossible to obtain a Nascent Soul Spiritual Item again, and hence, move beyond the Nascent Soul Stage.

But as long as they were alive, with their minimum cultivation at the late stage of the Golden Core and backed by the powerful Blood Red Alliance, they could at least live freely for hundreds of years.

And making a desperate gamble to face such a powerful and extraordinarily unorthodox cultivator like Lin Tianming was not an easy decision, nor one that could be made lightly.

Therefore, those present were outwardly complying with Yan Qingsheng while weighing the pros and cons in their hearts.

Before long, someone spoke up to break the silence.

At this moment, a late-stage Golden Core cultivator tentatively said, “Everyone’s thoughts must be clear to all here.”

“From any angle, seeking revenge against Jinfeng Country’s Liang Family and the Yang Clan is imperative.”

“Including the Wei Kingdom Lin Family, they too must pay a heavy price for their decisions.”

“Everyone present must be clear on this point.”

“But right now, we are close to the opening of the Ancient Demon Secret Realm, with only twenty-odd years left.”

“During this period, only a handful of cultivators in our alliance have substantial strength.”

“Under such circumstances, completing the task assigned by the Second Elder is not an easy feat.”

“Especially since Lin Tianming’s strength continues to grow, and several other Golden Core families are not ordinary forces.”

“Under such conditions, completing the task becomes even more challenging.”

Once these words were spoken, many cultivators quickly echoed them.

It was apparent that these people had recognized their own abilities and understood the current situation more clearly—seeking revenge on those powerful forces wasn’t an easy task.

If they were really doing it for the possibly non-existent True Dragon Fruit, they might even end up losing their lives.

Therefore, in the eyes of many cultivators, the grand promises Yan Qingsheng made didn’t seem that attractive.

Even Zhu Jincheng at the Golden Core Grand Perfection Realm wasn’t swayed by the benefits spoken of.

Thus, those present only paid lip service, using all sorts of practical issues to dismissively comply with Yan Qingsheng’s demands.

At this point, Yan Qingsheng also saw through this.

Nevertheless, even though Yan Qingsheng’s strength far exceeded these people’s, and his status and position were high enough.

He had no coercive means to rally these people in front of the public.

Moreover, the benefits he spoke of could not be proven before they were realized.

As such, the benefits he mentioned were just like any other rhetoric to these Golden Core Stage cultivators.

Seeing the atmosphere gradually turning cold, Yan Qingsheng’s face turned dark, and a strong aura once again faintly emanated from him.

At the same time, his expression gradually hardened, with a hint of an angry smile on his face.

After a while, those present felt the change in atmosphere, sensing Yan Qingsheng’s terrifying aura and pressure.

As a result, some people could not contain themselves again, and started saying some condemning words towards the Liang Family camp and the several forces to appease Yan Qingsheng’s anger.
