Chapter 2589 Is this a grandstand?

Also fearing that delay might cause unforeseen changes, these ancestors of the Heavenly Spirit Clan were very efficient and fast.

They set the sacrificial ceremony for the day after tomorrow, leaving only one day for preparation.

Actually, there's not much to prepare; you just need to prepare an altar that's big enough, like a grandstand.

All we need to do is invite a group of human cultivators up there, and then arrange for a group of women from our tribe to stall for time while we wait for the Sea God to arrive.

However, the elders had different opinions on what should happen to the women of this clan in the end.

Ling Yunyi's grandfather said with a livid face.

"You mean to have these tribesmen buried with them?"

"Otherwise what? Are we supposed to risk being exposed to rescue them?"

According to this patriarch, the women of that clan would be abandoned at that time, their fate left to chance.

Ling Yunyi's grandfather disagreed with this. He could tolerate the continued loyalty to the Sea God, but he found it hard to accept that even his own people were so cold-blooded.

He objected, but under the leadership of this ancestor, the other ancestors actually chose to acquiesce.

This infuriated Ling Yunyi's grandfather.

In the end, all he could do was blurt out a sentence, his face flushed.

"I am ashamed to be associated with you. My Heavenly Spirit Clan will be destroyed by you sooner or later."

After saying that, he strode away, and behind him came the voice of the old ancestor who had been opposing him.

"Hmph, foolish, womanly compassion."

What does it matter if a group of people are sacrificed to achieve our goal? As long as the sea god blesses us, we can make up for the loss of our people from other places in no time.

No one cared about Grandpa Ling Yunyi's anger; at this moment, it seemed that he was being targeted by the other elders.

After all, he had always been against it, and he was the only one who was.

The other ancestors all chose to obey the Spirit Ancestor's orders.

With preparations complete, by the evening of the following day, members of the Celestial Spirit Clan went to inform the numerous cultivators of the Human Race.

It is said that the grand centennial ceremony will begin early tomorrow morning, and it is hoped that many humans will grace us with their presence.

Although everyone nodded in agreement, they were still somewhat suspicious.

"So fast?"

"Yes, they were just invited yesterday, and the ceremony is tomorrow?"

"A century-old ritual is being done so casually?"

This century-old sacrificial ceremony must be a major event for the Celestial Spirit Clan. Since it's such a big event, shouldn't we make good preparations for it?

What can you prepare in one day?

Let alone a clan's centennial festival, even the ancestral worship of the imperial family requires preparations several months in advance.

Is the Celestial Spirit Clan really this casual in its dealings?

However, since they didn't understand, no one said much.

In addition, everyone came from the Celestial Realm. Although they had been to the outer heavens before, they had not stayed for very long.

Our understanding of the outer world is always limited, let alone the matter of this extraterrestrial race.

Even this centennial grand festival of the Celestial Spirit Clan is something many people are hearing about for the first time.

Therefore, although everyone had doubts about how the Celestial Spirit Clan had prepared the sacrificial ceremony in just one day, they did not delve into it.

I don't understand, but I express my understanding.

Early the next morning, several elders of the Heavenly Spirit Clan personally went to various places to invite numerous human cultivators.

The situation with Elder Huang and Ye Changqing was naturally of utmost importance, as the very ancestor who had come from the beginning had come in person.

Upon seeing Elder Huang, the ancestor of the Heavenly Spirit Clan immediately greeted him with a smile.

"Senior, everything is ready. Please do me the honor of taking a seat."

"Ah."

Upon hearing this, Elder Huang nodded slightly and, led by the ancestor of the Heavenly Spirit Clan, headed towards the altar.

Upon arriving at the seaside, we indeed saw a huge high platform.

According to the elder of the Heavenly Spirit Clan, this high platform was the viewing stand for the many human cultivators to watch the ceremony.

This enormous "stand" had half of its length extending over the sea, and chairs had already been placed on it.

Although it was a bit crowded, it was arranged neatly.

Looking at the "stand" in front of him, Old Huang asked with some suspicion.

"Your stands are so close to the front?"

"Senior, you may not know this, but it is a tradition of my Celestial Spirit Clan."

Tradition???

Upon hearing this, Elder Huang gave the old ancestor of the Heavenly Spirit Clan a deep look, making the other party feel uneasy.

Fortunately, he didn't say anything more in the end. He simply led Ye Changqing, Xu Jie, and the others to the stands and sat down in the first row.

It wasn't that Elder Huang didn't notice anything amiss; the main problem was that Elder Huang's true form was currently busy preparing ingredients for the Sea God.

They found another gathering place of sea god ingredients, a total of five sea god ingredients. At this time, they were busy fighting with the ingredients and had no time to care about the clones.

So without much thought, he sent the old ancestor of the Heavenly Spirit Clan away and went straight to sit down on the platform.

Thinking he had escaped a calamity, this ancestor of the Celestial Spirit Clan had a feeling of being spared a disaster.

For a brief moment, he almost thought he had been exposed.

Afterwards, as time went by, other human cultivators, led by the Heavenly Spirit Clan, also arrived at the "stand".

Looking at this strange "stand", many human cultivators also felt puzzled. What the hell is this a stand?

However, when they saw that Elder Huang and the others were already seated, the many human cultivators, though puzzled, did not think much of it and followed Elder Huang and the others to the stands to take their seats.

The Heavenly Spirit Clan elders, who had been closely monitoring the situation, breathed a sigh of relief, not expecting it to go so smoothly.

The old ancestor who had always been at odds with Ling Yunyi's grandfather said with schadenfreude.

"Well, didn't you say it was a failure? Now, the human race has seen a clue."

Upon hearing this, Ling Yunyi's grandfather remained silent, only looking suspiciously at the increasing number of human cultivators on the "stand".

Something's not right. With the intelligence of humans, they shouldn't have missed even the slightest clue.

This is completely wrong. How could they have gotten on so easily?

Can't you see the problem here?

Even Ling Yunyi's grandfather was completely bewildered by everyone at this moment.

Strictly speaking, the Celestial Spirit Clan's plan was not particularly ingenious; in fact, it was riddled with flaws.

But the humans didn't suspect anything, especially Elder Huang and his group, who just sat down without a second thought.

Aren't you surprised?

Despite his suspicions, Ling Yunyi's grandfather, as one of the ancestors of the Tianling Clan, naturally couldn't step in to stop it at this time.

He had to consider the interests of the Celestial Spirit Clan.

As more and more humans arrived at the "stand," a group of selected Celestial Spirit Clan girls also took on the role of maids, moving back and forth among the humans.

There were people serving tea, pouring wine, and serving spiritual fruits; the service was not bad, but these were all just ways to buy time.

There was only one goal: to stabilize the human race and await the arrival of the sea god.
