I See the Aura of the Great Emperor in All My Disciples -
Chapter 1579 - Chapter 1579 Chapter 1579 Attack as One (14)
Chapter 1579: Chapter 1579: Attack as One! (1/4) Chapter 1579: Chapter 1579: Attack as One! (1/4) The next day, at noon.
Above Chuan Feng, the banquet began on time.
Songs and dances flourished, and Qilins stood atop the mountain peak, appearing as guards and also symbolizing the astonishing heritage of the Kirin Clan.
Thunderous sounds of drums rose from Chuan Feng.
At this moment.
Qi Wu arrived at Chuan Feng with Little Black Stone and Mu Fusheng in tow.
As the group reached the banquet area, people around them cast their eyes upon the trio.
Some displayed disdain.
Some showed dissatisfaction.
There were also those who whispered among themselves.
All in all, not a single person from the Kirin Clan bore goodwill towards the three human experts.
Shi Sheng looked around and couldn’t help commenting, “It seems like our task here will be fraught with difficulties.”
Blackie spoke indifferently, “It doesn’t matter. We are only here to search for the Earthly pole of the Classic of Mountains and Seas. Whatever they do is of no concern to us. If they try to stop us, we fight.”
This was nine days before Lu Changsheng took Xu Yeming as his disciple.
Therefore, Blackie and the rest had not yet been informed that the Earthly pole of the Classic of Mountains and Seas had been found.
Hearing Blackie’s words, Mu Fusheng let out a wry smile.
It probably wouldn’t be that simple.
The site of the banquet was a courtyard.
Surrounding the courtyard was a lake, with the courtyard situated on an island at the lake’s center.
To ascend to the courtyard, one could not fly; doing so would be showing disrespect to Qi Chuan. Even Princes and the Purple Flame Generals had to cross over the stone bridges laid across the lake.
As Qi Wu led Little Black and the others across the stone bridge, rows of long tables and benches lined both sides, laden with various precious spiritual foods and spiritual wines.
In the center, there were songstresses playing music and dancers dancing.
Songs and dances flourished.
At that time.
A servant approached Qi Wu and the others, smiling and saying, “Second young master Qi, the eldest young master has been waiting for a long time, please follow me to your seat.”
Meanwhile, a Purple Flame General, who still maintained neutrality without taking clear sides, was personally invited to the event by a close attendant of Qi Chuan.
Those around them pondered upon seeing this.
In theory, Qi Wu’s status was supposed to be higher than that of the Purple Flame General, even above that of the Princes.
Yet, the person receiving him was just a humble servant.
It could be said that no face was given to Qi Wu at all.
Their conflict, it seems, could no longer be mediated…
Qi Wu’s expression remained calm, but his eyes were filled with a sense of oppression. Merely glancing at the servant caused the servant’s body to tremble, nearly collapsing.
With just a cold sneer.
He did not follow the servant to the seat but instead lightly tapped his foot and leapt forward, taking a seat at the very front of the line of long tables.
Seeing this, Little Black and the others followed suit, sitting down in the seats behind Qi Wu.
The onlookers nodded to themselves.
If Qi Wu had truly followed the servant to his seat, it would make the other banquet attendees see him as weak, and he would have lost in terms of momentum.
Among the Beast Race, you can be physically weak, you can lack schemes or talent.
But to be weaker in spirit or to be timid in character is absolutely unacceptable.
As guests took their seats one by one.
All nine Purple Flame Generals and the two Princes had also arrived.
When the two Princes arrived.
Qi Chuan finally made his entrance, stepped forward to greet them personally, and smiled, “Uncle Princes, why did you come by yourselves? I was thinking of sending someone to meet you at the foot of the mountain.”
The green flames Prince, who openly stood on Qi Chuan’s side, laughed heartily, “No need for formalities. I’m not yet at the point where I need someone to receive me just for walking.”
The Red Flames Prince, whose stance was ambiguous but closer to Qi Chuan, merely nodded with a smile, without responding.
“Alright, now that everyone is here, let’s begin the banquet!”
Qi Chuan’s figure flashed to the head of the table, and then he lightly tapped the table.
A series of main dishes were brought out.
In comparison, the appetizers that were originally on the long table would only be considered starters.
The dishes were served.
Qi Chuan picked up a wine glass, rose, and said in a loud voice, “Thank you all for the honor of your presence, and thank you for the territories you have conquered for our Kirin Clan over these years, allowing us to maintain our position as the leader of the Four Great Beast Clans! To everyone!”
Having said that, he took the lead and drained his glass.
Below, everyone also stood up, courteously said their part, and emptied their glasses.
However.
The Beast Race, unlike human experts, would not beat around the bush with flattery and pleasantries under such circumstances before getting to the point.
Qi Wu had just sat down.
Qi Chuan’s first wave of attack had already arrived.
“I heard that my younger brother also achieved remarkable results at the Six Realms Academy exchange, although not as good as before…”
In the past, the Demon Beast Continent could at least maintain a position within the top three ranks.
But this time, the Beast Academy only managed to achieve fourth place.
Bear in mind, there had been no participation from the Four Great Beast Clans before, and now, with the leading Kirin Clan participating, the results were even lower.
Although everyone knew that this time’s Six Realities Academy exchange was quite unusual.
Yet, the results were ultimately not good to look at.
Qi Wu said indifferently, “Even if big brother personally went, I’m afraid there wouldn’t be much change.”
A cold glint flashed in Qi Chuan’s eyes, then he smiled and said, “Let’s not talk about this matter for now.”
“But…” Continuing his speech, Qi Chuan’s gaze fell on the three humans behind Qi Wu. His eyes narrowed slightly, and with a smile that was not quite a smile, he said, “Younger brother, why did you bring human experts here? You should know, our Demon Beast Continent… the Kirin Clan does not welcome humans, and yet you have brought them to my banquet?”
When Qi Wu came to the Kirin Clan with human experts.
It had virtually spread throughout the entire Kirin Clan.
Qi Wu could not have been unaware.
His statement was just a way to use the situation to exert pressure, to make others in the Kirin Clan dissatisfied with Qi Wu.
Previously, the other Purple Flames Generals and Princes had not taken issue, thinking that Qi Wu brought human experts without ulterior motives.
However, bringing them to this banquet now… that had a different significance.
It signified that these three humans were extremely close to Qi Wu and were subordinates he intended to employ!
Right away, a Purple Flames General siding with Qi Chuan frowned and said, “Second young master, isn’t this against the rules? Even if you need hands for something, after all, it’s an internal affair of our Kirin Clan. Isn’t it too much to ask three humans for help?”
Internal affairs… naturally referred to the struggle for Clan Leadership between Qi Chuan and Qi Wu.
Qi Wu smiled faintly and said, “I have certainly considered it, but they indeed possess special abilities that can help me… and even contribute to the Kirin Clan.”
“So, you mean to continue cooperating with the humans?”
“Does that imply you’ve already reached some kind of agreement with the human race?”
“That won’t do! If so, we definitely cannot let the second young master take the position of Clan Leader. Since when did our Kirin Clan start cooperating with humans?”
Three Purple Flames Generals standing on Qi Chuan’s side began a concerted attack against Qi Wu!
The rest were still watching and waiting.
All of this was within everyone’s expectations; they just wanted to see how Qi Wu would resolve it.
