“Protector Mi Kong, what do you think?”
Protector Xuan Di finished speaking and unexpectedly turned to look at Protector Mi Kong, sneering as he spoke.
Protector Mi Kong furrowed his brows and said in a deep voice, “Protector Xuan Di, what do you mean by that?”
Being questioned out of the blue made Protector Mi Kong's heart skip a beat, as he already had something to hide.
“What do you mean?”
Protector Xuan Di chuckled coldly, “What could I mean? I just heard that Protector Mi Kong has a good relationship with Sikong Sacred Ground and has spoken on their behalf before, so I wanted to understand Protector Mi Kong's thoughts!”
“Hmph, Protector Xuan Di, what do you imply by that?”
Protector Mi Kong's face darkened. He had indeed been recruited by Sikong Zhen and had spoken on behalf of Sikong Sacred Ground a few times, but he didn’t expect to be targeted like this by Protector Xuan Di.
At the side, Sikong Zhen transmitted to Qin Chen, “Esteemed Sir, it is rumored that Protector Xuan Di and Protector Mi Kong are not on good terms in Linyuan Sacred Gate, both vying to become the vice sect master.”
Qin Chen suddenly understood; no wonder Protector Xuan Di confronted Protector Mi Kong right away. If the two had always been at odds, it made sense.
At that moment, Ancient Void Night raised his head and said lightly, “Protector Mi Kong, since you've started speaking, why not share your thoughts first? How should our Linyuan Sacred Gate interact with Sikong Sacred Ground?”
Protector Mi Kong replied solemnly, “Elder Ancient Void Night, my thought is to have a good talk with Sikong Sacred Ground. With the recent events in Dark Ancestor Land, there must have been some conflicts between the two sides.
Previously, when Sikong Zhen came to our Linyuan Sacred Gate, we could inquire about what exactly happened. After all, he is the saint master of Sikong Sacred Ground, one of the three major powers in Black Jade Continent. Regardless of our stance, it’s better to have a discussion than to directly drive them away.
After all, having one more friend is better than having one more enemy. I just don't understand why the esteemed sect master is refusing to meet. If Elder Ancient Void Night knows, please inform me.”
Protector Mi Kong cupped his hands.
“Hahaha, Elder Ancient Void Night, I told you, Protector Mi Kong has an extraordinary relationship with Sikong Sacred Ground, and will definitely speak for them. Look, it's just as I suspected. I even doubt that this person has some unspeakable dealings with Sikong Sacred Ground.”
Protector Xuan Di sneered, “I say, why not directly eliminate Sikong Zhen? As long as the vice sect master gives the order, this seat will act immediately to annihilate Sikong Zhen.”
“Do you really think you can eliminate Sikong Zhen?
If you had that capability, why would you still be a protector in Linyuan Sacred Gate? You might as well go to Sikong Sacred Ground and be an ancestor.”
Protector Mi Kong coldly laughed.
“Hmph.”
Protector Xuan Di suddenly stood up, “Protector Mi Kong, do you really think this seat is afraid to act against you?”
Boom! A torrent of power erupted from Protector Xuan Di.
“I have long suspected your connection with Sikong Sacred Ground. If you have the guts, come out for a fight!”
Protector Xuan Di shouted angrily.
“Enough, everyone is here to discuss how to interact with Sikong Sacred Ground. There’s no need for the two of you to get so worked up.”
At this moment, another supreme warrior spoke up.
It was a Supreme Elder from Linyuan Sacred Gate, Heavenly Elder.
This person was a quiet and old-looking elder, with profound cultivation but a decrepit aura surrounding him, and the dark energy he exuded was no longer pure, mixed with many impurities, giving off a decaying smell.
It was clear that his lifespan was nearing its end, with not much time left to live.
“Elder Heavenly, wait. Regarding Sikong Sacred Ground, it should be Protector Mi Kong who first explains the situation.”
