An Tianzhi landed at the entrance of the Ancient River Research Bureau, took a step forward, then retracted his foot, pacing slowly at the doorstep.
When Ancient River Sect was recruiting Martial Saints, he and Wu Duanxiong, along with so other Martial Saints, made it clear that they refused.
Wu Duanxiong even said so rather unpleasant things in private.
"Even if my martial arts are inferior, I wouldn’t switch to another sect."
"I’d rather die on the battlefield than bow to another."
He walked back and forth at the entrance, and before long, Li Yuanhe ca out to greet him, inviting An Tianzhi inside.
"Cough... where is Elder Zhou?" An Tianzhi asked.
Li Yuanhe hesitated for a mont, initially not understanding which "Elder Zhou" he was referring to, but quickly said, "Saint Zhou just returned and is currently cultivating. It might take a few hours."
"Okay, I’ll wait for him here. I’m preparing to join Ancient River Sect."
"Welco, welco... Martial Saint Shiji is also here..."
Li Yuanhe took An Tianzhi to the guest accommodations, but before he could arrange everything, An Tianzhi switched on the Demon Brain and said, "Saint Zhou is about to hold a Martial Saints eting, I’m going to find him."
An Tianzhi said, contacting Zhou Leng.
After Zhou Leng sent out a ssage, several Martial Saints residing at the Ancient River Research Bureau ca together, heading towards a room where video conferences could be held.
"Since you ascended to Martial Saint, this is the first eting you’ve called, it’s rare," Zhu Shiji said.
"The Upper-Rank New Emperor Battle is about to begin, I think now is a good ti," Zhou Leng replied.
"What’s the matter?" Zhu Shiji asked curiously.
"Resolving the Blue Star’s Demon Worship Sect cannot wait," Zhou Leng said.
The expressions of Zhu Shiji and the other Martial Saints turned serious.
"What do you an..."
"From top to bottom, conduct a severe and comprehensive crackdown on the Demon Worship Sect," Zhou Leng said.
They vaguely understood Zhou Leng’s intention, but given the gravity of the matter, none expressed their views imdiately, only pondering.
Not long after, an online Martial Saints eting was held.
Aside from those in closed cultivation, almost all Martial Saints from Dragon Country appeared.
After all, this was Zhou Leng’s first convened eting, regardless of stance, face must be given.
Zhou Leng started with a few pleasantries, briefly explaining the current situation.
"This year is 2050. Next year, the fifty-year civilization protection will expire, ushering in a new Ten Realms War..."
"Currently, humanity’s greatest threat is the Demon Worship Sect..."
"Next, all Upper-Rank Martial Saints will enter the Ten Emperor Battlefield..."
After discussing the current situation, Zhou Leng paused for a mont, then slowly spoke again.
"I propose a severe and comprehensive crackdown on the Demon Worship Sect, starting with the Martial Saints, and quickly dismantling the sect’s power with lightning-like montum, preparing for next year’s Ten Realms War..."
"This intense crackdown will be divided into two battlefields. In the Ten Emperor Battlefield, I ask all Upper-Rank Martial Saints to join forces to heavily damage or even kill the current Upper-Rank Martial Saints of the Demon Worship Sect..."
"On the Blue Star battlefield, I will personally lead the team, joining forces with Demon Spirit Masters and Tree-man Demigods to hunt down Demon Worship Sect Martial Saints, solving them one by one..."
"After resolving the Martial Saints, the Blue Star Alliance Conference will be held, with leaders from all countries required to attend. Through voting, designate Demon Worship Sect as a hostile force, justified..."
"Afterwards, Martial Saints will personally lead teams to sweep away various forces of the Demon Worship Sect. Regardless of casualties, costs, or expenses, resolve it in a short ti..."
"In the face of any obstruction, whether practical or opinion-based, adhere to the principle of ’three disregards’—resolving it swiftly, severely, and comprehensively..."
"Because ti left for humanity is running out."
"During chaotic tis, severe asures must be used, and now is the mont for them."
After Zhou Leng finished speaking, he received approval from the main battle faction.
But the neutral faction and so Martial Saints remained silent, even furrowing their brows.
Most Martial Saints did not express their views.
Because this proposal was too radical.
Far exceeding all their previous plans.
Many Martial Saints furtively glanced at Li Tianyuan, Chen Shaohuang, and Huang Xuan Pavilion.
Three Upper-Rank Martial Saints.
Not only strong in Dragon Country, but among the most powerful on Blue Star.
Currently, the strongest Martial Saints of the Blue Star Human Race are Upper-Rank.
The three Upper-Rank Martial Saints showed no change in expression, remaining calm and composed.
After a long ti, a Martial Saint spoke up, "Wouldn’t doing this be too hasty, too bloody, causing backlash?"
Zhou Leng said, "I don’t care about haste, bloodiness, or backlash; I only care if this matter is correct. If it’s correct, it should be done. Oh, by the way..."
"Now, I adhere to the rules, so I’m holding this eting. If everyone disagrees, I will form a ’Demon Slaughter Army’, gather my allies, and eliminate the Demon Worship Sect’s power before the Ten Realms War."
Many Martial Saints’ eyes flickered.
This was a threat.
"Young people, indeed, can hardly remain calm," Wu Duanxiong said.
"Of course, you can remain calm because it’s not you who die," Zhou Leng retorted unreservedly.
So Martial Saints’ expressions finally changed, showing displeasure.
But considering Zhou Leng was now blessed by three Emperors, unmatched on Blue Star aside from Upper-Rank Martial Saints, they discreetly shut their mouths.
After a long ti, still no one spoke.
Zhou Leng slowly said, "There’s no use talking more, let’s vote. I will never allow more innocent people to die before . You may not care, but I do."
"Even if it ans opposing the world?"
"I’m not the one opposing the world," Zhou Leng said.
Huang Xuan Pavilion lightly tapped the table with his fingers and said, "Many things I don’t care about, but what I care about is resolving Upper-Rank Martial Saints. Humanity originally had thirteen Upper-Rank Martial Saints, Benjamin inexplicably fell, now only twelve remain. We in Dragon Country have three, the Demon Worship Sect has two, and there are seven others..."
"Among these seven, five have indeterminate stances, with two clearly leaning towards the Demon Worship Sect. So, tell , how will you resolve these four Upper-Rank Martial Saints of the Demon Worship Sect?"
Zhou Leng looked at Huang Xuan Pavilion, Li Tianyuan, and Chen Shaohuang, saying, "Upper-Rank Martial Saints should naturally be handled by you three Upper-Rank Martial Saints. If you can’t handle it, I will."
The Martial Saints, being experienced, naturally understood the implication in Zhou Leng’s words.
If the three Upper-Rank Martial Saints couldn’t solve it, and Zhou Leng did, then whoever solved it would have the final say.
So Martial Saints shook their heads slightly; Zhou Leng today was too direct, too assertive, completely different from the usual Dragon Country Martial Saints.
The Martial Saints of Dragon Country valued harmony and unity.
This deanor of Zhou Leng was not a good thing.
But, the Ten Realms War was happening next year.
Huang Xuan Pavilion, Li Tianyuan, and Chen Shaohuang exchanged glances, unsure how to respond to this extraordinary situation.
The upper echelons of Dragon Country had long prepared various plans, and the plan Zhou Leng proposed had also been discussed.
But it was vetoed due to the enormous risk posed by Upper-Rank Martial Saints, which were highly uncertain factors, completely uncontrollable.
However, those discussions were before Demon Worship Sect’s Upper-Rank Martial Saint Benjamin fell.
And now, the Upper-Rank Martial Saint New Emperor Battle is imminent; all Upper-Rank Martial Saints will leave Blue Star.
During these days, there is enough ti for everyone to carry out a cleanse of the Demon Worship Sect Martial Saints.
Indeed, it’s a once-in-a-lifeti mont.
