Chapter 1176: Chapter 740 Secret eting_3
Upon hearing these words, the expressions of everyone present were varied, speculating on the matter spoken of by the Pri Minister.
Most of them were aware of the confidential discussions within the Pri Minister’s Mansion, and soon many had already made a preliminary conjecture in their minds.
— To overthrow the Tianyuan Sword Sect.
An urgent matter, seemingly only this one.
And from this perspective, the Pri Minister was indeed sowhat eager to establish the prestige of the Third Young Master. However, considering the Third Young Master’s performance in the Northern Frontier and Western Desert, as well as the over ten years of preparation by the Pri Minister’s Mansion, the people present did not show too much concern.
As the dean of the Geotry Institute, Jiang He’s identity was sowhat special.
Although he was a minister of the Pri Minister’s Mansion, it was more accurate to say he was a comrade of Xu Yinhè rather than his subordinate.
Therefore, after receiving his order, Jiang He did not stand up, nor did he reply affirmatively to the Pri Minister seated at the head, speaking very directly:
“Everyone, today should be the last eting before the outbreak of war. Since we are all old acquaintances, I won’t be wasting words. The recent events, I believe you have already understood on your way back to the capital. The Pri Minister gathered you here today for three reasons: the Imperial Family, the sects, and the woman nad Wen who appeared in Zhenxi Prefecture.”
“A woman with the surna Wen?”
No sooner had the words fallen than soone chid in, with so surprise. As everyone looked back, they saw an elder sitting at the end of the long table.
With a goatee, holding a cane, his hair slick and shiny.
While speaking, he rubbed his goatee and let out a sinister geigei laughter:
“That woman can actually be placed on the sa level as the Imperial Family and the sects? Or does she represent those Hidden Sects? But shouldn’t the representative of those Hidden Sects be Jiatiange?”
Jiang He glanced at the speaking old man.
The dean of Wenshu Courtyard, chief Ritual Supervisor of the Xu Family, Zhou Xianlin.
After a mont of consideration, Jiang He replied:
“The Third Young Master once engaged with this woman in the Western Desert, her cultivation is very high.”
“There are many people with high cultivation in this world….”
“Above Saint level.” Jiang He said obliquely to the other.
“…..”
The secret chamber fell silent instantly.
They looked at each other, then shifted their gaze to the headseat, observing the expression of this Pri Minister.
They had received no information about this matter beforehand.
Yet how could Pri Minister Xu express it openly on his face?
Tian Yuxue pondered slightly and interjected at this mont, with a tone tinged with seriousness:
“Jiang He, what is the realm above Saint level?”
Jiang He seed sowhat speechless at this question:
“I am rely in the Integration Body realm, you ask ?”
“…..”
Tian Yuxue frowned, the whispering sound of inquiry ca from the ministers beside:
“Jiang He, with the ergence of a new realm, why have we received no information?”
“Does this an that a person from the sects has erged who can kill us at will?”
“An interesting notion, it’s not that I don’t believe you, but at least half of us here need to show ourselves outside, if that woman truly possesses cultivation above Saint level, would we still be alive now?”
“Given the gap between Saint and Mortal Transcendence, if there is a power above Saint overseeing, the sects in the Zhenxi incidents couldn’t possibly fail.”
“Does the specific strength above Saint have a rough range? Can soldiers from the two towns slay her…..?”
Though aware that matters ntioned at such a eting could not be unfounded, the news still seed too astonishing; thus most Xu Family ministers maintained a skeptical stance.
Knock, knock, knock—
From the end position, dean Zhou Xianlin of Wenshu Courtyard lightly tapped the stone chair, attracting the group’s attention before asking:
“Jiang He, does this information source co from the Third Young Master?”
“Yes.”
“Could it be that the Third Young Master got it wrong? The confidential discussions ntion he’s achieved Mortal Transcendence, a three-year Mortal Transcendence, unheard of, and even if the Third Young Master has an average standard, the gap between that and Saint….”
“Now the Third Young Master only needs a quarter of an hour to slay you, Zhou Xianlin.” Lou Ji suddenly interjected lightly, silencing the slightly noisy room again.
Zhou Xianlin’s eyes narrowed slightly, responding:
“Chief Lou, Zhou knows you’ve always favored that young man, but such words cannot be spoken so recklessly. Though I am not adept in killing, I am also a Semi-Saint, you claim Mortal Transcendence slays Semi-Saint in a quarter of an hour?”
Lou Ji crossed her arms, twisting her delicate fingers around her hair, with a smile that didn’t reach her eyes:
“You can try it.”
Zhou Xianlin stared at the woman opposite for a few breaths, shook his head, and redirected the topic:
“Should I spar with the Third Young Master? Such unnecessary talk, why even utter it? The reasons and consequences of the Zhenxi incidents have been studied by Zhou multiple tis, just the identity of Lady Wen as the mastermind behind the scenes is indeed sufficient to be ntioned alongside the Imperial Family and sects.”
With that, his tone abruptly shifted, resounding with conviction:
“But,
“Zhou suggests, such unverified information should not be ntioned in such important etings.”
Not a word of objection was spoken for a while.
Indicative that most present agreed with Zhou Xianlin’s statent.
The formation of the Imperial realm was due to military and castle formations significantly balancing the individual supre Saint power, now if there truly exists power above Saint level, the blow to the existing Imperial system would be catastrophic.
However, after his words fell, so directed so puzzled glances at the elder with the goatee in that end position.
His last words seed a bit redundant.
By introducing the realm above Saints through the Third Young Master, in fact, was also a subtle way to establish authority for Xu Yuan, while Zhou Xianlin’s final words were entirely to counter the Third Young Master’s authority.
As the Dean of Wenshu Courtyard, this old man had consistently avoided getting involved in these ssy discussions. His duty is to screen and manage various affairs for the Pri Minister, why would he lead the opposition against the Third Young Master today?
