The leaders of the Eight Great Families, the Law Enforcers, and the super luxurious team formed by the Law Enforcer Blood Reward were thrown into chaos.
The Lan Family has been destroyed!
This news hit the crowd like a heavy bomb, causing a strong shockwave!
After the initial panic, it transformed into fear and dread.
The Lan Family was under the protection of their Ancestral Patriarch, Lan Buhui; Lan Buhui's cultivation level, among the ancestors of the Nine Great Clans, wasn't particularly outstanding, probably ranking around sixth or seventh.
However, he was a genuine ninth rank supreme!
How could they be annihilated so easily?
Has the Nine Calamity Sword Master truly become this terrifying?
If he could wipe out the Lan Family, then how would he deal with the other families…?
Thinking of this, everyone broke out in a cold sweat.
Before this, the Nine Calamity Sword Master ruling over the Nine Heavens was just a long-standing legend; after all, it had been ten thousand years.
But now, they felt that this prophecy was a steel knife hanging over their necks!
Everyone felt a chilling dread.
After the shock, there was a heavy silence.
Only the sound of heavy breathing echoed back and forth.
For a moment, everyone was confused, looking at each other but finding that none among them could make a definitive decision.
People tend to seek opinions from those of higher status when faced with significant matters they cannot decide themselves.
This person could be their father, elder brother, superior, or anyone older or of a higher status than them...
However, when surrounded by people of similar status, an unconscious mentality arises: If I don't understand, what does he know?
Now, this was precisely the situation.
Among the Eight Great Families, everyone present was an eighth grade supreme leader, and they were already resentful towards each other, let alone asking for opinions!
After exchanging glances, the supremes rolled their eyes in unison, snorted, and turned their gazes away.
For a moment, no one spoke.
Among the Law Enforcers, there were a few ninth rank supremes, but the commander designated by the Law Sovereign was Diwu Qingrou.
Clearly, they could not voice their opinions here.
The atmosphere became tense.
It was evident that even if they were dissatisfied and looked down upon him, currently, the only person here capable of coming up with an idea, who was qualified and wise enough, was none other than Diwu Qingrou!
Everyone controlled themselves, trying not to look at Diwu Qingrou.
Although his opinions and analysis were needed now, they were all eighth grade supremes, and they used to push him away with such force. Now, they want to use him... it was difficult to save face!
Moreover, they weren’t begging him. Couldn’t he just stay silent? He was in that position after all.
In the ensuing silence, Diwu Qingrou calmly said, “The situation is roughly as such; everyone knows it now, and there’s nothing else… Let’s disperse. Tomorrow, there will be a fierce battle. I wish you all victory.”
As he spoke, Diwu Qingrou stood up calmly and said, “Sirs, regarding the battle arrangements, I have sealed a brocade pouch for all of you. Whether or not to use it is entirely up to you. It’s getting late, so let’s all take a rest.”
With that, he began to step down from the front.
The supremes were momentarily stunned: Is he pretending to be aloof or… acting confused?
Just as they pondered this, Diwu Qingrou had walked down, nodding and smiling at everyone, his pace relaxed, almost about to exit the tent.
He walked neither fast nor slow, but there were no signs of stopping.
Watching Diwu Qingrou leave, Xiao Zhengyan finally couldn’t hold back and spoke, “Commander Diwu, please wait!”
Diwu Qingrou frowned, reluctantly stopping and saying, “Xiao Senior, what advice do you have?”
Xiao Zhengyan gasped for breath, lifting Chen Jianlong next to him, “You speak!”
Chen Jianlong blushed and protested, “Why does it have to be me who speaks?”
Diwu Qingrou frowned again, simply turning back, “I know what you’re all thinking, but this is a matter of the Nine Great Clans, so it’s inappropriate for me to... Therefore, I’ll take my leave first. You all can continue discussing.”
