The scene fell into a deathly silence, only Zhuo Zhong’s miserable cries echoed intermittently in the great hall, causing the present Righteous Sect Masters to shudder.
Just now, with Su Jie’s domineering statent and the absolute threat of his strength, who dared to utter another word? Zhuo Zhong’s fate was still fresh in everyone’s mind.
A strong practitioner at the Taoist Platform Realm was like a clay figure before Su Jie, completely vulnerable, not to ntion those Sect Masters at the fourth or fifth level of the Secret Realm.
So, they all turned into clay statues of Buddha, saying nothing, remaining utterly silent.
"What, all mute? Doesn’t anyone have anything to say to ?"
Su Jie tapped the armrest, his cold gaze sweeping across, each Righteous Sect Master dared not et Su Jie’s eyes.
"Sect Master Su, our Heavenly Soul Sect is willing to cooperate with Ghost Ridge Palace and beco a branch of Ghost Ridge Palace."
Standing beside Su Jie, Lu Jingshi glanced at Zhuo Zhong, thinking about Su Jie’s arrangents for the Heavenly Soul Sect during the recent chess ga, and finally made up his mind.
Since the tide was irreversible, he had no choice but to go with the flow and follow Ghost Ridge Palace’s lead.
"I... I agree!"
However, the approval from the Heavenly Soul Sect was not surprising, but almost simultaneously with Lu Jingshi, another voice sounded.
The crowd turned their heads and found the speaker was none other than Yunhai Cave Sect Master Feng Chenzhong, another Taoist Platform Realm powerhouse from the Qingzhou Righteous sect.
"Sect Master Su, our Yunhai Cave is willing to cooperate with Ghost Ridge Palace."
Under several scrutinizing eyes, Feng Chenzhong mustered the courage to speak proactively.
"Feng Chenzhong, you..."
The mangled Zhuo Zhong looked at Feng Chenzhong with disbelief, the other party submitted and betrayed so quickly.
"Oh, haha, you’re quite sensible, let see your sincerity."
Su Jie smiled slightly, Feng Chenzhong’s appearance indicated that these Righteous sects were not beyond taming.
"Zhuo Zhong, the path is your own choice. I am not only thinking for myself, but for the tens of thousands of disciples in the Sect."
Upon hearing this, Feng Chenzhong’s eyes turned ruthless, with no more sha on his face, and after crossing the ntal hurdle, he felt his world was now vast and boundless, looking at Zhuo Zhong again with no sympathy, only ridicule.
Facing the questioning stares from the righteous sects around him, he proactively acted in front of Su Jie, fiercely launching a palm strike, spiritual power surging wildly, sending Zhuo Zhong flying out of the great hall, crashing into several fake mountains, life or death unknown.
"A fool who doesn’t know his place, how dare you question Sect Master Su’s decision."
This strike was almost aid to take Zhuo Zhong’s life, his ribs were broken countless tis, his internal organs were displaced, had it not been for the protective talisman, that strike would have killed him.
"Feng Chenzhong!"
Several Righteous Sect Masters’ expressions changed drastically, Feng Chenzhong showing no regard for righteous camaraderie, compromising with Su Jie, this devil, and cruelly striking his own comrade.
Like the Sect Master of Miao Yin Temple, Si Xinying glanced angrily at Feng Chenzhong, then flew out to assist the critically injured Zhuo Zhong.
But more Righteous Sect Masters chose at this mont to stand behind Feng Chenzhong.
"Our Dragon and Tiger Sect, like Yunhai Cave, is willing to serve Ghost Ridge Palace, to serve Sect Master Su."
"Our Jiulie Castle is willing to follow Ghost Ridge Palace’s orders, without a word of protest."
"From now on, our Tianqing Pavilion will regard Ghost Ridge Palace as supre, following its commands."
"I..."
Each Righteous Sect Master knelt on one knee towards Su Jie; naturally, they were unwilling, but in the face of absolute power, their dignity was worthless.
The big fist is the truth, if they did not submit here, their Sects would be annihilated by Ghost Ridge Palace.
Submit or die, only these two options, the answer naturally surfaced, any normal person would choose survival.
anwhile, at the place in the great hall.
Si Xinying assisted Zhuo Zhong, Miao Yin Palace and Dragon Roar Palace had been close allies for years, with excellent relations, they would not sit by and watch soone die.
"Sect Master Zhuo, why must you seek such unnecessary suffering, there’s no way to survive by confronting Su Jie head-on."
"I... I just wanted to retrieve the bodies of my Sect’s disciples, what did I do wrong."
"Sect Master Zhuo, what strength do you possess, though Taoist Platform Realm Second Layer Heaven is not bad, that’s no reason to say whatever you want."
Si Xinying’s tone was filled with exasperation at Zhuo Zhong’s intransigence.
"It was Su Jie who suggested cooperation for mutual benefit, allowing us to speak freely! So I just spoke honestly."
After swallowing the elixir Si Xinying handed him, Zhuo Zhong’s internal injuries had sowhat eased, even his severed limbs were slowly healing, with new hands and feet growing.
The formidable life force of the Taoist Platform Realm was beyond ordinary human limits, regeneration of limbs was naturally no problem.
"He let you speak, but that’s just Su Jie’s courtesy, and you really spoke."
Si Xinying’s mouth twitched, feeling speechless, advising, "What Feng Chenzhong just said wasn’t wrong, even if you don’t think of yourself, think of the tens of thousands of disciples of Dragon Roar Palace. Now co back with , quickly submit to Su Jie, it’s the only way to survive."
Zhuo Zhong said nothing, just hanging his head, his spirit completely gone.
When the two returned to the great hall, most Righteous sects had already chosen to submit to Su Jie, to Ghost Ridge Palace.
"Miao Yin Pavilion, willing to follow Ghost Ridge Palace’s commands."
Si Xinying set Zhuo Zhong down, feeling full of sha and anger, bowed remotely to Su Jie.
After Si Xinying spoke, the remaining Righteous Sect Masters no longer persisted, opening their mouths one by one, expressing their desire to follow Ghost Ridge Palace.
Finally, it was Zhuo Zhong’s turn, at this ti he no longer had the righteousness to speak for others, instead, he was full of flattery: "Sect Master Su, it was my oversight earlier, our Dragon Roar Palace is willing to serve Ghost Ridge Palace faithfully."
