This was the first time Cloud Summit Manor showcased its appearance to outsiders, and also the first time various lanterns were lit together.
The aesthetic of the Su Clan designers was interpreted and affirmed at this moment, and under their concepts and construction, the entire manor left every visitor in awe.
Although only the first phase of the project had been completed, it was not grand in scale, but the delicacy of the first phase and its impact filled with a sense of mysterious technology opened the eyes of the small races from Dark Strip City.
Their base was not designed and built by the Su Clan.
Every representative from the small races received a warm welcome, with members of the red dress guard and Long Void Water Clan providing various drinks and food. The decorations and seating in the banquet hall were enough to give them topics to discuss for dozens of minutes.
For such treatment, where every race was accompanied by a beauty from the red dress guard and Long Void Water Clan, the Alliance of Small Races could only admire.
There was no helping it; many races simply did not meet the aesthetic standards of most carbon-based life forms.
“Can you guess why Ye Zhongming called us here today?”
After enjoying the service of the two beauties, many representatives of the small races, having familiarized themselves with the environment, gathered together to start discussing.
“Perhaps it’s to build a relationship with us? Or maybe to talk about cooperation?”
“It seems there’s a real problem with the Star-Eye Clan…”
“Hmm, when I arrived, I only saw Pao Bai, no one else. If there wasn’t a problem, both clan leaders from the Star-Eye Clan would likely be here.”
“If the Star-Eye Clan has fallen out with Ye Zhongming, do you think we could invite them to join us?”
“You’re thinking too much; just look at this grand manor—this is only the first phase. Can our small place accommodate them?”
“Speaking of this manor, do you think Ye Zhongming anticipated falling out with the Star-Eye Clan long ago?”
“I just don’t understand why someone like him would be rejected by the Star-Eye Clan.”
“That's hard to say; perhaps it’s not just a problem with the Star-Eye Clan.”
“Impossible! We saw with our own eyes how Ye Zhongming fought on the planet battlefield. Among the clan members who fought alongside him, none spoke ill of him. How could there be a problem?”
Since all the races had sent members to follow Ye Zhongming in the previous battles, the ones who could come here were those who were more willing to get closer to him.
Upon hearing the last person's words, everyone nodded in agreement.
While these people speculated outside, Ye Zhongming met with Jie Kui and members of the Bronze Camp Assault Team who had come over.
Ouchong Shiyong glanced at Jie Kui and then at Ye Zhongming, feeling a bit at a loss, because after they conveyed the decision of the Bronze Camp to Lord Ling, they were met with an unsettling silence.
Deep down, they hoped that Ye Zhongming would agree and keep them.
They knew very well who had brought them to this point; without Lord Ling, they would revert back to their original states.
“Have you really decided to come with me? Are you aware that once you stay in the manor, it will be somewhat difficult to return to the Star-Eye Clan? It’s not that you can’t go back, but if you do, you will be treated differently.”
Ye Zhongming finally broke the silence.
“Not all the brothers came with us, but those who are here are prepared for this and would even accept the possibility of never returning to the Star-Eye Clan.”
Shiyong spoke on behalf of the hundreds of brothers present.
The Assault Camp had lost quite a few people in the planet hunting grounds this time; aside from the sacrificed brothers, the number of those who didn’t come here wasn’t too large, and they could understand this. After all, it wasn’t just about one person, but also involved family and loved ones.
