Chapter 13297 Internal strife
"When did my Demon Suppression House become so humble and spineless? Or are you all in the Empress' Palace so keen on surrendering and kneeling, and have no dignity at all?"
Every word Long Yingtian said was like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of everyone present. His eyes were full of anger and disdain, as if he wanted to completely defeat Qian Feng's words.
Empress Qian Feng did not flinch. She met Long Yingtian's cold gaze with a firm tone, "Your Majesty, although you are the Lord of the Demon Suppression Mansion, this matter is by no means your own, and the Demon Suppression Mansion is by no means your personal property.
This battle concerns the life and death of everyone in the Demon Suppression Mansion, and the future of each of us. Why should we provoke those powerful forces of the Soul Suppression Mansion for no reason and create powerful enemies for ourselves for no reason just for Ling Xiao?
Of course, if the Palace Master can personally take action and take control of the legendary treasure to fight against the increasingly rampant Soul Clan, everyone in my Empress Palace will have no objection at all."
Long Yingtian's eyes were like sharp swords, locked tightly on Qian Feng, and the air seemed to freeze at this moment. At this extremely tense moment, Cheng Shifei's figure suddenly appeared beside Qian Feng like a black lightning.
The terrifying aura emanating from his body was like a mountain torrent that exploded in an instant, shocking the entire venue.
Seeing this scene, everyone's faces suddenly became extremely ugly. They knew Cheng Shifei's strength very well, and they also understood what the aura he was emitting at the moment meant. Some warriors with lower cultivation even took a few steps back involuntarily under the impact of this aura, their faces full of fear.
A sneer appeared on Qian Feng's lips. She naturally knew that Cheng Shifei was powerful, but she, Qian Feng, was no ordinary person either.
However, she couldn't help but feel angry. She didn't expect that Long Yingtian would let Cheng Shifei attack her just for Ling Xiao. In her opinion, this was simply an insult and provocation to her.
Just when the two sides were on the verge of a fight and the atmosphere was extremely tense, Di Huangzhu on the side suddenly spoke. Her voice was like a spring breeze, with a hint of softness and warmth:
"Your Majesty, we are all from the Demon Suppression House, and our starting point is for the future and peace of the Demon Suppression House. Although there have been some grievances between my Imperial Palace and the Female Imperial Palace, at this moment, I don't want to see internal strife in the Demon Suppression House. It's really inappropriate for you to do this!"
"Shifei, step back!" Long Yingtian's voice was filled with unquestionable majesty, and he waved his hand gently at Cheng Shifei.
Although Cheng Shifei was unwilling, he had to restrain his aura and stand aside due to Long Yingtian's order. However, his eyes were still fixed on Qian Feng, full of vigilance and hostility.
He is not a person like Long Yingtian who can tolerate different opinions. He cannot tolerate any sand in his eyes. He has already been burning with anger at Qian Feng's provocation.
Long Yingtian glanced at Qian Feng coldly, his eyes showing both dissatisfaction and disappointment. Then, he slowly turned around and looked at the Ten Thousand Demons Cemetery in the distance with a sharp gaze.
His voice echoed in the venue, carrying an indescribable majesty and power: "I know you are all wondering why I am so protective of Ling Xiao.
But I want to tell you, it’s not that I’m protecting him, but that he doesn’t need anyone to protect him at all.
Think about it, if he really had no one to protect him, how could the treasures on him remain safe and sound? Don’t some people really understand such a simple truth? "
Every word of Long Yingtian was like a heavy hammer, striking everyone's heart.
His tone was full of trust and admiration for Ling Xiao, but also revealed his dissatisfaction and disappointment with those doubters.
His words seemed to tell everyone that Ling Xiao was a man with his own strength and wisdom. He did not need anyone's protection and could gain a foothold in this world where the strong were respected.
Under Long Yingtian's gaze, the atmosphere in the meeting hall gradually became solemn and dignified. Everyone was silently thinking about Long Yingtian's words, trying to find the answer from them.
Seeing that everyone had fallen into silence, as if they were all weighing the pros and cons in their hearts, Long Yingtian's voice sounded again, with a hint of helplessness and determination:
“If you seize this treasure, the consequences could be extremely serious.
Not only will we have to offend the unknown powerful existence behind Ling Xiao, but at best our Demon Suppression Mansion will be severely damaged, or even completely wiped out; and once we completely fall out with that power, the entire Demon Suppression Mansion may be wiped out from this world and cease to exist. "
Long Yingtian's words revealed not only worry, but also deep concern for the future of the Demon Suppression House. His words were like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, stirring up ripples and making everyone present feel the heavy pressure.
At this time, Di Huangzhu on the side suddenly spoke, her voice soft but firm: "Fu Zun, you are unwilling to seize this treasure by force, and my imperial palace has no objection.
However, we must face a reality - if this item falls into the hands of the Soul Clan, it will undoubtedly be an unprecedented disaster for our Demon Suppression Mansion. We are all well aware of the ambition and strength of the Soul Clan. Once they get this treasure, the consequences will be disastrous. "
Di Huangzhu's words were filled with fear of the Soul Clan and worry about the future of the Demon Suppression Mansion, and her eyes flashed with unquestionable determination.
Qian Baiyun, the head of Sitong Commercial Bank, also nodded slightly, with a solemn expression on his face: "The Palace Master of the Imperial Palace is right. If such a treasure falls into the hands of the Soul Clan, it will be an unbearable burden for our Demon Suppression Mansion. We must act cautiously and not let such treasures fall into the hands of the enemy."
Upon hearing this, Long Yingtian slowly turned around and glanced at everyone present with a sharp gaze.
His eyes were both inquiring and somewhat cold: "So, you want me to control that treasure in my hands to ensure that it does not fall into the hands of the Soul Clan, so as to protect the safety of our Demon Suppression Mansion?"
Di Huangzhu nodded slightly, with a calm and thoughtful approval in her action: "Such an arrangement is indeed the most stable and safe choice." There was a hint of appreciation in her eyes, as if expressing silent affirmation of Long Yingtian's concerns and considerations.
The others followed suit, their nods showing their own considerations and trust. Some of them might have respected Long Yingtian, while others were afraid of the possible consequences of the unknown treasure. In short, they all chose to support Long Yingtian's decision.
