Chapter 1008 - Preparing Their Ambush
Inside the meeting room, one of the people there suddenly spoke after a long moment of silence in the room, "Is it true that my father is dead?"
"Yes, it's true. His life tablet is destroyed, and news of what happened at the Stairway to Heaven has already spread throughout the entire realm; it will only be a matter of time before the people in the upper heavens learn of the massacre."
"Have we notified our family in Third Heaven yet?"
"No, not yet."
"Then what the fuck are we doing here?! We need to notify them as soon as possible! We also need to have someone watching the Stairway to Heaven just in case he fails and stays down here for a little longer!"
"If this Yuan is talented enough to slaughter the Seven Legacy Families and our Ji Family while we're working together, there's no way that he wouldn't be able to ascend the Stairway to Heaven."
"I'm going to notify the family in Third Heaven! Time is of the essence right now! We cannot allow this criminal who has been sentenced by the Heavens to get away with his crimes!"
The direct descendant of Lord Ji left the room shortly after while everyone else remained in the meeting room to discuss their future.
"Now that the majority of our forces along with Lord Ji are dead, our family has practically become a chicken on the chopping board waiting to be slaughtered by our enemies. The moment our enemies learn the truth— that our family is defenseless, they will definitely attack us and try to replace us."
"This is a disaster not just for us. Even those in the upper heavens will be affected by this mess."
"What can we do? Go into hiding? How many years will it take before we can regain enough strength to manage this realm again? The Spirit Heavens will be destroyed by the wars that will soon plague this land before then!"
"We cannot do this alone. We've sustained too much damage to survive by ourselves now."
"Then we can only request for reinforcements and assistance from our family in the upper heavens for the time being."
Meanwhile, the Six Spiritual Academies were also having a meeting of their own to talk about the recent events.
"I don't want to make any speculations, but there is only one person that I can think of who could possibly make such a scene…" Sect Master Xiahou sighed.
"Are you talking about Yuan? That was my first thought as well. He also slaughtered the Gu Family and the Universal Music Academy." Sect Master Li said.
"According to our investigation, the corpses there belonged to the Seven Legacy Families and the Ji Family…"
"Besides them, who else could possibly amass such a massive army?"
"But why would they attack Yuan? Do you think it has anything to do with what happened at the Spirit Healing Academy?"
"Will they even tell us about it? I doubt they would want to talk about such a massive loss…" freёwebnoѵel.com
