Chapter 112: The Murong Family’s Reason

“Why would the Murong family suddenly support the Hidden Edge Sect?”

Lord Hongwu asked in disbelief at the Sacred Land Conference.

To them, although the Murong family claimed to be a reclusive family, they had always been treated as a sacred land power.

After all, other than the sacred land where the Great Emperor had appeared, the other sacred lands’ achievements were far inferior to the Murong family’s.

And when the Great Emperor passed away, there was no Great Emperor left in the world.

The Murong family, which had many quasi-emperors, was practically one of the strongest forces.

If it was not for the fact that the Great Emperor had an Emperor artifact as a trump card, the Murong family would almost certainly be the strongest sacred land.

“I’m not sure. We rarely interact with the Murong family.”

The Vast Sea Pavilion master, Li Yuanying, answered.

“Leader of the Heavenly Tower of Legacy, do you know anything about this?”

In the end, everyone’s target of inquiry was still the lord of the Heavenly Tower of Legacy.

However, to their surprise, the lord of the Heavenly Tower of Legacy did not know the exact situation either.

“The Murong family is mysterious and unpredictable. I don’t know anything about their situation either.”

“Why don’t someone contact them?”

“Now that they have publicly expressed their support for the Hidden Edge Sect, who else can persuade them to come back?”

“That’s not necessarily the case. As long as we show sincerity, everything will be fine.”

“Sincerity? Hmph! Now that we’re in such a good situation, why should we show sincerity to the losers? If they’re willing to oppose us, then they can just die.”

There were also sacred lords who did not agree with this approach.

This was not strange.

After all, aside from Dali, everyone wants to have fewer people splitting the profit in the end.

Now that they had seen how well the Hidden Edge Emperor had set up the World Barrier, the sacred lands felt that he would definitely lose.

Facing a situation where victory was certain, it was normal for them to avoid having someone interfere.

Sect Master Wan Xiang raised his objection.

“Everyone, although our chances of victory are very high, we still can not let our guard down.”

“You must know that our opponent is a Great Emperor after all! What if he doesn’t care about anything else and attacks us?”

“There’s no way to guarantee that the other party will always abide by the rules. Once he doesn’t care about anything else and has the support of several quasi-emperors, we won’t be able to defend ourselves against his power.”

When he finished speaking, someone immediately raised an objection.

“Attacking us directly under the eyes of so many people in the world? Aren’t you afraid that everyone in the world will laugh at you?”

The Wen Xin Dao Master mocked.

“That’s right. In this situation, he doesn’t dare to disregard the rules we agreed on. After all, Emperors also care about their reputation.”

Lord Hongwu agreed.

“Everyone, let me ask you a question. If the Hidden Edge Sect really attacks, who will be able to defend against three quasi-emperors and the Murong family quasi-emperors?”

“If the other side really wants to break them one by one, who can guarantee their safety before the Emperor Artifact Formation is completely completed?”

Suddenly, a sacred lord raised a question.

When the sacred lords sensed the other party’s aura during the long-distance meeting, they discovered that the other party was the lord of Maple City.

Although these sacred lands were currently full of confidence, the prerequisite was that Ye Changge insisted on repairing the Giant Pillar of the Heavenly Mortal World, and disregarded the actions of the sacred lands.

But just as the other party said, who could guarantee this result?

After a series of discussions, the Lei family, which was also a reclusive family, finally went to the Murong family to communicate with them.

Hidden Edge Sect.

Ye Changge routinely refined the Giant Pillar and did not care about other things.

In any case, everything was going according to plan.

As for the Murong family’s patriarch, Murong Sheng, he had just come to ask for an audience, but was rejected by Ye Changge.

In the end, Sect Master Ding received him.

Now, many members of the Murong family were resting in the Hidden Edge Sect.

“Patriarch, just now, the Lei family sent someone to discuss with us. The various sacred lands promised to share the spoils of war with us, and they hope that we will leave the Hidden Edge Sect.”

Someone reported the news to Murong Sheng.

“As long as we leave, they are willing to help us build momentum and prevent our reputation from being tainted.”

The people of the sacred lands were resourceful and powerful.

Naturally, they could think of a way to send a message to the Murong family and the members of the Hidden Edge Sect at the same time.

“Hehe, those guys are anxious. Helping us build momentum and restore our reputation is indeed something they can do.”

Murong Shenghuo laughed mockingly.

He looked at the messenger in front of him and knew that this family’s junior had the same thoughts as those sacred lands.

“Little one, what kind of people do you think those sacred lands are?”

He suddenly asked.

The messenger was Murong Sheng’s nephew, Murong Guang, ranked seventh.

“Family head, the sacred lands are very powerful and have a long history. Their ruling power is very strong and their foundation is very strong.”

“No more?”

Not knowing what Murong Sheng meant by winning or losing, Murong Guang answered very carefully.

“Your nephew is slow-witted. Please teach me, master.”

Murong Sheng nodded.

“The people of the sacred lands are selfish and self-centered. If we work with them, there will be endless trouble in the future.”

“Don’t look at how they are united now. They have made great contributions to the entire Mortal World. None of this is what they care about.”

“They only care about their own interests. Whether their actions are beneficial or detrimental to the world is not important to them.”

“It’s not like the sacred lands only have the ability to do so now. Why didn’t they join forces in the past? It’s all because they didn’t have a common enemy.”

“Now that they have a common enemy, they finally thought of linking up. Hehe.”

“In the end, other than dividing the spoils of war and benefits, they also offered to help us build momentum.”

“To the sacred land, betraying one’s trust is a piece of cake.”

“Have you ever thought that if they can help us build momentum today, they can also build momentum for themselves when they don’t fulfill their promises in the future?”

Hearing this, Murong Guang broke out in a cold sweat.

Murong Guang did not make things difficult for him either.

Only the elders of the Murong family knew how shameless the sacred lands were.

As the top powers in the entire Heavenly Mortal World, they did not have any concept of good or evil.

The vast majority of the sacred lands did not care about what would happen to the Heavenly Mortal World. They only cared about their own interests.

The fact that the Murong family had a quasi-emperor was coveted by many forces.

When the Murong family was weak and there was only one quasi-emperor in the family, many sacred lands joined forces to attack the Murong family.

At that time, the entire Murong family suffered heavy casualties.

In the end, the sacred lands could not find the secret that kept the quasi-emperor alive from the Murong family.

Thousands of years later, all the sacred lands thought that this matter had faded away.

However, it remained in the hearts of everyone in the Murong family.

At least, everyone who had experienced those difficult times in the past hated the existence of the sacred lands.

“You can leave now. Contact with the sacred lands has been rejected.”

Murong Guang raised his head.

He had thought that the head of the family only did not wish to cooperate with the other party now, or that he wanted to be cautious about the sacred lands scheming against them.

He had not expected that he had already made such a decision, completely disregarding contact with the sacred lands.
