Hmm...?
Su Wen Yuan clearly didn’t anticipate Ji Haoyuan having such a move.
He was slightly stunned at first, then discreetly collected the Storage Bag.
Upon seeing what’s inside the Storage Bag, the smile on his face beca even more pronounced.
"Friend Ji is truly overly courteous, we hit it off at first eting, next ti you shouldn’t be so formal."
As he spoke, the two exchanged a glance and couldn’t help but smile knowingly.
After walking so distance forward, Ji Haoyuan suddenly asked in a seemingly casual manner:
"By the way, Elder Su, this ti your sect summoned us with a red Command Arrow, may I know what the main reason is?"
Upon hearing these words from Ji Haoyuan, Su Wen Yuan’s expression finally showed a hint of seriousness.
After a mont, he said:
"About our sect’s impending war with the Netherworld Sect, Friend Ji must have already heard?
Indeed, the reason you’re summoned is exactly for the full-scale war with the Netherworld Sect.
Friend Ji later should listen more, speak less, and definitely not raise any objections, rember this."
This was a reminder.
Ji Haoyuan naturally knew the importance of restraint.
In the Ji Family, and in other places, he had the confidence to decide by himself.
But in the Crimson Sunset Sect, under the eyes of Golden Core True n, he naturally chose to be low-key.
After all, the dignity of a Golden Core sect is not sothing anyone can dare to defy.
So ti later.
Su Wen Yuan led Ji Haoyuan into an incredibly grand hall.
This was the main reception hall of the Crimson Sunset Sect.
Compared to the reception hall of the Ji Family, this one in front was lavish beyond asure.
"Haoyuan..."
Upon entering this reception hall, Ji Haoyuan imdiately heard a familiar voice nearby.
He turned his head to look.
And saw Liu Hongyu and Feng Wanqing from the Feng Family not far from him.
With a quick glance.
Ji Haoyuan really found many familiar faces in this hall.
Most were Foundation Establishnt cultivators from families under the Crimson Sunset Sect’s domain.
Including the Zhang Family patriarch he had t two years ago, Zhang Xingde.
The other party clearly saw his arrival as well, and a friendly smile surfaced on his face as he nodded in greeting.
This slightly surprised Ji Haoyuan.
But after thinking it over, Ji Haoyuan roughly understood the situation.
This Zhang Family patriarch’s wisdom is not sothing those other two can compare to.
This was evident in the matter he faced on Taiping Mountain.
Just like now.
This seemingly casual gesture actually contained the intention to ease relations with the Ji Family.
"Friend Ji..."
At this point, Su Wen Yuan beside him couldn’t help but speak with a smile.
"I’ll leave you here for now, I have other matters to attend to, so I won’t stay. Rember what I just told you."
After speaking, Su Wen Yuan turned and left the reception hall.
As Su Wen Yuan left, Liu Hongyu and Feng Wanqing approached him.
When the two won got close, Liu Hongyu hesitated slightly and said:
"Friend Haoyuan, just now, that person was...?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Haoyuan did not conceal anything, but smiled and nodded:
"Yes, that was Elder Su Wen Yuan of the Crimson Sunset Sect."
Indeed...
Both won’s hearts were taken aback.
Though curious about Ji Haoyuan’s connection with Su Wen Yuan, neither dared to ask further, instead shifting the topic to why the Crimson Sunset Sect had summoned them.
Ji Haoyuan did not say much about this.
But he did share Su Wen Yuan’s earlier advice with them.
Upon hearing, the two were thoughtful.
Clearly, they too had realized sothing.
Next, everyone waited for quite a while.
Gradually, more people entered.
So ti later.
When most had gathered in the reception hall, a person suddenly walked in.
This person was also wearing a crimson sect robe.
With red hair and a long beard.
Appeared to be around fifty years old.
But these were not what caught everyone’s attention; it was his aura.
This, was a cultivator whose cultivation had reached Foundation Establishnt Great Perfection!
Noticing this, everyone’s heart could not help but tremble.
"Everyone..."
Then the red-haired middle-aged cultivator stepped forward and with a cold gaze scanned the crowd before slowly speaking:
"Let introduce myself first, I am Yuan Shanglong, Hall Master of the Law Enforcent Hall of the Crimson Sunset Sect.
The reason for summoning you here is to discuss the full-scale war with the Netherworld Sect."
As expected...
Upon hearing this, many people’s hearts tightened.
Despite guessing beforehand that the Crimson Sunset Sect gathered them for this reason, hearing it confird by the sect’s law enforcent hall master made many uneasy.
After all, everyone knew that in wars, especially between two Golden Core sects, casualties are inevitable.
No one can guarantee that the one lost in battle won’t be themselves.
Ignoring everyone’s reactions, Yuan Shanglong continued:
"In this war, the cultivators behind you will also need to follow our sect’s orders and arrangents.
If anyone disobeys, both yourselves and those behind will face the Crimson Sunset Sect’s sanctions and be the first to be sacrificed in battle.
Do any of you have any objections?"
These words caused many faces to change slightly.
Nobody expected the sect to act so overbearingly.
Not only do they want everyone and those behind them to fully follow their orders, but anyone who defies them would beco sacrifices.
Isn’t this going too far?
Indeed.
These people belong to the sect in na.
But ultimately, they are not sect cultivators.
Responding to orders, assisting in the war, and even following commands is one thing.
However, having their people leave them to follow the sect’s lead is... too much.
They cannot guarantee the sect won’t use them as cannon fodder during the war.
This, is what most gathered feared and struggled to accept.
Finally.
After a brief silence, a robed man stood up and addressed Yuan Shanglong:
"Hall Master Yuan, I can accept most of what you said.
However, regarding our own family’s cultivators, could we lead them ourselves?
After all, we know them best.
This way, we could better utilize their combat abilities and avoid unnecessary errors."
