Chapter 1414: No Mercy
After the ceremony, Qi Xuansu had a long discussion with Sage Donghua. The main topic was the New Continent, specifically the issues surrounding Kukulkan and Ixchel.Since it involved deities, Qi Xuansu knew it was beyond his ability to resolve alone. He had to report it to higher authorities.
Sage Donghua proposed first reporting the matter to Qi Xuansu’s direct superior, Sage Qingwei, and then holding a meeting outside the jurisdiction of the Golden Tower Council to properly discuss it.
The reason for keeping it outside the Golden Tower Council was so that they could include an outsider, Huangfu Ji.
Qi Xuansu then reported the matter again to Sage Qingwei.
Soon, the participants were finalized. The level was extremely high. Besides Qi Xuansu and Huangfu Ji, only four others were present—Sage Donghua, Sage Qingwei, Sage Cihang, and Great Sage Jiang. These were the top four figures of the Golden Tower Council.
This meeting was held in the Chiming Palace.
After outlining the situation, Qi Xuansu concluded, “It’s clear the ancient gods are divided internally. This is highly detrimental to overall stability.”
Great Sage Jiang looked toward Huangfu Ji. “What is your view, Daoist Huangfu?”
Huangfu Ji cautiously expressed a conservative stance. “Although the Western Daoist Order has long supported Kukulkan, such divisive tendencies are unacceptable to us. We cannot ignore them.”
Sage Donghua spoke bluntly. “What are everyone’s thoughts? Let’s set aside our internal disagreements for now. Regardless of approach, these ancient gods are crucial forces in resisting the Steam Evangelical Sect. Whatever we do, we must minimize losses.”
Sage Cihang added, “If we want to minimize losses, we nip it in the bud. If we keep dragging things out, it will become a quagmire that could pull everyone into it.”
