Chapter 2777: Chapter 2778: Heart Demon Arises
In the grand hall of the Dihuang Sect, numerous high-level members gathered once again."Ancestor, although Hua’er acted recklessly in this matter, it was for the sake of our Sect. If he can really fight Ye Luo to a draw, it would also help restore some face for our Sect!" An Elder immediately said.
This Elder came from the same lineage as the master brother, so naturally, he was a bit biased in his words.
"Indeed, that kid Ye Luo is too arrogant. It’s necessary to suppress him!"
Many Elders echoed in agreement.
But those truly in high positions, like the Grand Elder and several Deputy Sect Masters, remained silent. They knew that the real orders came from the Ancestor, and no matter what others said, it was futile.
As expected, the Ancestor squinted, swept his gaze around, and finally let out a cold laugh.
"Have you all forgotten what I’ve told you in the orders before?"
With these words, the originally noisy scene in the great hall came to an abrupt stop.
The Elders and Hall Masters looked at the Ancestor in fear, obviously understanding what the Ancestor’s words meant! It meant that even if the master brother drew with Ye Luo this time, his fate would still be sealed! The outcome would be inescapable death!
"Ancestor, have mercy!"
The clansmen of the master brother’s lineage knelt and begged for mercy, for according to the rules, if one defied the orders, their entire clan would suffer.
"This time, it was his own decision, unrelated to you, the punishment will not extend to your clan!" The Ancestor said faintly.
Only then did these people breathe a sigh of relief. The Ancestor was decisive and ruthless, even towards his own Sect members, which is why the one-man rule phenomenon was formed in the Dihuang Sect.
However, after this, no one dared to speak further, and all looked towards the Ancestor.
"Do you really think I am ruthless? Hua’er is, after all, the top genius of our Dihuang Sect, and I am also reluctant to let him fall. However, with the life and death arena set, do you think he can walk away from it?" The Ancestor spoke coldly.
The cultivators below were immediately stunned. In their view, both Ye Luo and Hua’er were peerless geniuses of similar age, and even if Ye Luo was stronger, it didn’t mean he could kill Hua’er!
