High Martial Arts: Invincible Starts from Basic Archery novel Chapter 776

Chapter 776: Chapter 609: The Song Family’s People Have Arrived

Elder Council Building.

Top Floor.

In the spacious conference room, sat five elderly figures, as they did the day before.

The atmosphere was heavy with tension.

After a long silence, the elder with the surname Su, seated at the northern end, slowly spoke, "An hour ago, an incident occurred in Jiangnan City. I assume you all have heard the news by now; let’s discuss our thoughts."

"What’s there to discuss."

As soon as the words fell, the elder in white beside him angrily burst out, "That brat has no regard for our Elder Council. Not only did he kill members of the Revival Association, but my son also died at his hands. This vendetta, my Xu Family must avenge! The members of the Jiangnan Martial Arts Association, none of them will escape!"

The elder with the surname Su nodded.

He understood the reaction of the elder in white.

After all, it was Xu Lian who led the team, not members of the other four families.

"Old Qin, what’s your view?"

He looked towards the elder in black.

"I agree with Old Xu."

The elder in black spoke coldly, "This matter has blown up too much. If we don’t kill that brat as a warning, our Elder Council’s reputation will take a severe hit moving forward."

"Easier said than done."

The elder surnamed Zhao snorted.

"We may not have witnessed the battle firsthand, but from others’ accounts, that Chen brat’s strength is terrifying. To kill him, we would have to mobilize the patriarchs of our families. Xu Hu, can you get your Xu Family’s patriarch to act? Or are you suggesting other families’ patriarchs should act?"

"Zhao, what do you mean by that?"

Xu Hu stood up angrily, "Do you think dealing with that brat is solely the Xu Family’s business? The Elder Council’s reputation being tarnished and becoming a laughingstock isn’t just our problem!"

Zhao Chunyuan fell silent.

Xu Hu had a point.

This has become a significant, ugly affair.

Including the Song Family, five Celestial Realm Martial Artists and over a dozen Revival Association elites were killed to the last man.

Now, countless eyes are on the Elder Council’s response, and some families are gloating over their predicament.

But as he said earlier,

involving their patriarchs in this affair, to kill Chen Fan would be highly unpleasing for their elders, who would feel that these juniors can’t even handle a minor issue.

Furthermore, even if their patriarchs were willing to act,

what if they got injured?

That brat killed mid-stage Celestial Realm Martial Artists like slaughtering chickens; he is at least a late stage of Celestial Human Realm, perhaps even a Divine Cultivation Realm Martial Artist.

If their patriarchs had an accident, at best they wouldn’t get selected in the next Elder Council term; at worst, they’d be suppressed by other families, causing their family power to plummet.

The risks are too significant.
