Lin Junrong was the first to react: "Elder Zheng, do you mean... the Nether Spirit Race?"
Fengg Xia had an epiphany: "Elder Zheng is correct; the Nether Spirit Race is ambitious, and they could launch an attack against our Human Race at any moment. Compared to their threat, the cultivators outside the Star Sea, trying to steal our secret manuals, are nothing."
Some elders expressed doubts.
"Elder Zheng, your words do make sense. However, it is the affair of the Heaven-supporting Sword Sect or Jinghang Mountain to thwart the Nether Spirit Race's attack. Although our Star Sea is also a Major Sect, we can't call the shots."
"Elder Zheng, we're aware of the Nether Spirit Race threat. But how does that relate to the secret manuals we protect in the Star Sea?"
The elder intended to say his own secret manuals, but as the words left his mouth, he realized they didn't sound right.
