"In other words, that kid Xiao Zhang likely went behind the Demon Sect's leadership, acting first and reporting later. He must have used a summoning order to call in all these masters." The speaker was an elderly man with a gaunt, withered face.
He had already lived for over nine thousand years, not far from the ten-thousand-year limit of an Immortal. He was practically a living fossil in the Hall of Envoys.
As such, he knew many things others did not.
"So, how should we handle this?" someone asked.
The elder contemplated for a moment, then said, "Our target is Mo Qi. I doubt the Demon Sect wants a large-scale conflict with us, so as long as we don't harm Xiao Zhang, they won't fight to the death."
"We outnumber them. We'll dispatch a group to hold back the Demon Sect, while the rest of us shatter the array as quickly as possible and capture Mo Qi!"
"Excellent! A viable plan!" The elder's proposal was unanimously approved.
