Chapter 1009: Chapter 1009: The Conference Before the Battle
"No, boss, I’m your mount, I should be by your side fighting bravely, how can I be reduced to a pet for this little girl when she is safe within the Jade Cauldron Sect and not in any danger?"
"Besides, for the upcoming battle at Red Soul Hall, you can’t be without me."
Upon hearing Liu Qingxia’s suggestion that Sky Howling Demon Wolf accompany Little Chenxia, it felt despair akin to being relegated to a babysitter for her. Its gaze fell on Lin Chen, imploring him not to make such a decision.
"For the time being, you’ll stay by Little Chenxia’s side and keep her company,"
"Then, when we set off for the great battle at Red Soul Hall, you can leave with me."
Lin Chen said to Sky Howling Demon Wolf, his tone indifferent.
Lin Chen had his concerns. Just as Sky Howling Demon Wolf suggested, in the forthcoming battle, its strength was indispensable, and naturally, Lin Chen intended to take it with him.
But faced with Liu Qingxia’s request, Lin Chen couldn’t refuse. There was no telling what troublesome issues might arise if he did, and he understood Liu Qingxia’s worries too.
Right now, the battle is on the verge of beginning, and Red Soul Hall’s most hated person is Lin Chen.
Therefore, Liu Qingxia worried that Red Soul Hall might dispatch powerhouses to infiltrate the Jade Cauldron Sect to target those close to Lin Chen.
Nowadays, Lin Chen’s fatherhood is no secret, and naturally, Liu Qingxia was greatly concerned for Little Chenxia’s safety.
But she was not aware of the lengths to which Lin Chen’s Second Soul Division had gone, expending Heavenly and Earthly Treasures to build Cloud Sky City and lay down multiple formidable Formations.
For enemies, infiltrating Cloud Sky City would not be easy.
Moreover, if they did come, Lin Chen would ensure they’d never return.
Hearing what Lin Chen said, the Sky Howling Demon Wolf had no choice but to reluctantly agree.
However, staying temporarily by Little Chenxia’s side was something it could just about tolerate.
Hearing this, Liu Qingxia did not press the issue any further.
For a formidable exotic beast like the Sky Howling Demon Wolf, being a little girl’s pet was naturally humiliating.
And with the battle against Red Soul Hall imminent, Liu Qingxia wished for the Sky Howling Demon Wolf to be by Lin Chen’s side during the conflict.
"Little Chenxia, for now, how about letting this Demon Wolf be your pet?"
Liu Qingxia crouched down beside Little Chenxia and asked tenderly.
During this period, both she and the other members of the Jade Cauldron Sect were preoccupied with preparing for the battle, and Liu Qingxia feared her negligence may put Little Chenxia in danger.
In that moment, hearing Liu Qingxia’s words, Little Chenxia looked hesitantly at the Sky Howling Demon Wolf, which stood a full head taller than her.
After all, this very same Demon Wolf had snatched her sugar figurines in the past, and she worried that if it followed her around, it could keep stealing them, leaving her with none to enjoy.
Lin Chen seemed to notice Little Chenxia’s hesitation and immediately shrank the Sky Howling Demon Wolf down to the size of a palm.
After the transformation, Little Chenxia’s eyes lit up, her sugar figurines suddenly less appealing.
Little Chenxia loved small animals, and upon seeing such an adorable Sky Howling Demon Wolf, she couldn’t resist holding it in her hands and playing with it like a toy.
The Sky Howling Demon Wolf wore an expression of utter despondency being treated this way by Little Chenxia.
Subsequently, Lin Chen began to focus on preparing for the great battle.
At the Jade Cauldron Sect, others would also scheme accordingly, for Lin Chen’s word was the Sect’s decree.
Lin Chen’s primary concern was the Formation Sect.
Although Qin Batian had agreed to the alliance, he could only speak for the Qin Family, not for the entire Formation Sect.
The real decision-maker of the Formation Sect was not only Qin Batian but also Ding Xingzheng from another lineage.
Upon returning to the Formation Sect, Lin Chen had intended to consult with Qin Batian about the matter immediately.
But in the end, he decided it would be wiser first to gauge the attitudes of other forces within the Sect.
So Lin Chen went back to his own residence. Xia Wanxin, Qiu Ya, and others, who had initially been with him in the Jade Cauldron Sect, had returned to the Formation Sect after his Second Soul Division arrived in the Huangyu Continent, as they were not acclimated to staying in the Jade Cauldron Sect.
Shortly after Qin Batian returned to the Sect, he ordered a gathering of the Sect’s Hall Masters and higher-level beings to convene a grand meeting.
Upon hearing the news, everyone was puzzled, for such meetings were a rarity, occurring once in a century. People speculated that something significant might be happening in the Eastern Domain.
The relationship between Red Soul Hall and the Divine Flame Alliance had not eased but worsened after their competition. Hearing this news, people guessed that the meeting might be to discuss strategies against Red Soul Hall.
"Ancestor, Old Qin has been quite active recently, mostly concerning Lin Chen. Should we really support him?"
At this moment, within Ding Xingzheng’s dwelling, Ouyang Jin looked at the elder, uncertainly inquiring.
"Let’s wait and see. Old Qin wants to tie the fate of the entire Formation Sect to that young man. He can represent his own Qin Family, but he cannot represent us."
Ding Xingzheng’s eyes revealed a profound look.
He had let go of past grudges, and although he no longer harbored hatred for Lin Chen, he was not willing to ally with Lin Chen, rallying the entirety of the Formation Sect to stand with Lin Chen’s Jade Cauldron Sect against Red Soul Hall.
After all, should they lose this battle, the Formation Sect might never recover and could be erased from the Eastern Domain.
Within the Eastern Domain, the Formation Sect was not the weakest power; there was no need to take such a risk and be the first against Red Soul Hall.
At this moment, the grand meeting of the Formation Sect had begun, and Qin Batian presented his proposal to support Lin Chen with the whole Sect’s strength.
"Brother Qin, your viewpoint only represents yourself. There is no issue if your Qin Family lends its full support, but my Ouyang Family is the first to disagree!"
Following Qin Batian’s speech, Ding Xingzheng, the Ouyang Family patriarch, immediately expressed opposition.
"Brother Ding, as one of the Formation Sect’s ancestors, surely you must consider the future prospects of the Sect?"
"Allying with the Jade Cauldron Sect and other powers of the Eastern Domain against Red Soul Hall is about solving the problem at its root. If you oppose, then state your reasons for opposition."
Qin Batian anticipated Ding Xingzheng’s response and asked him directly.
