Chapter 870

Luo Tianzong, the main hall.

The sect master Duan Mu Rui sat on the chief, with the 24 immortals sitting on both sides of him, each with a breath as vast as the sea.

A group of immortals are discussing how to deal with the prisoners of the dynasty. As the suzerain, Duan Murui has been listening quietly, his back is straight, and he has never dared to interrupt.

Although he was the suzerain of Luo Tianzong, among the twenty-four people present, the youngest was his own master, and most of them were even big men at the level of Taishizu.

Everyone was arguing vigorously, and a messenger disciple suddenly broke into the hall.

"Sect Master, Patriarchs... Urgent news is coming from the capital!"

"If there is any news, we will wait until the meeting is over!" Duanmu Rui frowned and hurriedly said.

"Wait a minute." The old white-bearded Daoist sitting on the left side of Duanmu Rui raised his head and glanced at the communication disciple, then turned to face Duanmu Rui and said, "Sect Master, since it is urgent news, let him speak. Anyway, we are here for a while and a half. There will be no discussions at the meeting.”

"The Patriarch is right." Duanmu Rui nodded quickly.

The white-bearded old Daoist, holding a whisk in his hand, is the oldest in the group of patriarchs, and the old sect master who made the decision to close the mountain gate tens of thousands of years ago. If you count the time of self-seal, this one is nearly 13,000 years old.

Duanmu Rui knew that the old man with the white beard did not directly overstep himself and gave orders to the disciples who were communicating, but he was expressing his attitude towards his suzerain.

"What is the urgent news, tell me."

"The news came from the capital. This morning, huge ravines appeared in various places one after another. Now there are eight ravines that have been discovered, which almost run through the entire continent." Climb up. According to the current situation, they are all monsters in the Transcendent Realm."

As soon as the communication disciple said these words, the entire hall fell into silence.

Not only Duanmu Rui, but all the patriarchs present, including the white-bearded old man, were stunned.

"Have you confirmed the authenticity of this news?" The old white-bearded Taoist frowned, the first to regain his senses, and immediately asked.

"It has been confirmed that more than one capital city has discovered this matter. Moreover, the news that several sects such as Wuchen Sect and Xiaoyao Sect have received before us, and now there are rumors that the mountain gate will be reopened." The communication disciple respectfully road.

The hall fell silent again.

"You can contact the Dufu now, and we will ask for specific information." The white-bearded old man no longer cared about Duanmu Rui's face, and directly waved at the communication disciple.

The communication disciple immediately stepped forward, took out the communication spar, and contacted the capital.

After some communication with the capital, the expressions of everyone in Luo Tianzong were not very good-looking. After rejecting the communication disciple, the white-bearded old man looked at Duanmu Rui, as if he wanted to let him retire as well.

Duanmu Rui also saw the hesitation of the patriarch, and took the initiative to stand up and cup his hands, "The disciple has retired."

"No need, you stay too, you will know about this sooner or later." The white-bearded old Taoist sighed slightly, and finally let Duanmu Rui stay.

"If you want me to say, it's the disaster caused by those outsiders!" A middle-aged Taoist priest with a big beard couldn't help but speak for the first time. "If it weren't for them, Xuan Lei wouldn't be here at all! They should all be expelled!"

Obviously, Luo Tianzong had already learned that these forces of the Dynasty were outsiders.

"It was indeed caused by outsiders, but what's the use of complaining now?" A fat Taoist priest next to him shook his head and said, "If you drive them out, will these visions end and the catastrophe will not come? "

"Now that the catastrophe has come, it would be unwise for us to fight the outsiders. It is better to join them to fight against this catastrophe." A grizzled old man did not agree with the expulsion. Most of the rest of the people are masters with perfect feathering, and some have strengths comparable to those of immortals."

"These wolves have ambitions. In order to obtain resources, they can even attack our mountain gate." The bearded Taoist objected very firmly. "Joining with them, are you not afraid that they will stab in the back?!"

"I also have this concern." The silver-haired old Daoist sitting on the right side of Duanmu Rui couldn't help frowning and opened his mouth. His silver hair was tied into a bun by a black wooden hairpin.

"These outsiders, they came to our world for the purpose of obtaining resources. From their behavior, they did not regard us as human companions at all, but regarded us as remnants of the ancient era. For them, our The Era has long since perished, and it is a matter of course and acceptable for us remnants to perish. Even if an alliance is reached, once the catastrophe has completely come, they can withdraw from our world at any time and watch our life and death from the sidelines.”

"Anyway, I don't trust these outsiders." The silver-haired old man paused on the ground with his crutches.

"Junior Brother, I can understand your concerns." The white-bearded old Taoist who held the whisk in his hand finally stroked his beard with one hand and said, "But these outsiders belong to dozens of different forces and cannot be generalized. Moreover, the issue of trust is also a problem. It can't be solved."

Hearing this sentence, everyone's eyes fell on the face of the white-bearded old man.

"What they want is resources, we can just give them resources." The white-bearded old man stroked his beard with one hand and smiled lightly, "As much as they contribute, we will give as much as possible."

"We don't actually need mutual trust with them, we just need to reach an employment relationship. I also believe that these people are definitely willing to accept employment, after all, their purpose is to obtain resources."

"Uncle Master's idea is really good." The gray-haired old man nodded in agreement, "The employment relationship is more stable than the alliance relationship, and we are the employers and have the initiative."

"At the moment, it seems that this is the only way to do it." The fat Taoist nodded slightly.

"I think we can discuss this employment proposal with other sects, and let everyone share the hired resources. In this way, each sect only needs to pay a small part." The white-bearded old man added.

Several people with dissenting opinions also fell into silence.

"Since you don't have any better suggestions, let's vote now." The white-bearded old Taoist glanced around the crowd, "Raise your hand for those in favor of hiring."

Including Duanmu Rui, only six of the twenty-five people at the scene did not raise their hands.

"Nineteen to six, the voting result is already obvious." The white-bearded old man smiled, "That's the decision!"

"Senior brother!" The silver-haired old man sitting opposite said again, "According to you, we should let the people from the dynasty go and give them resources to fight for us?"

"Of course not." The white-bearded old man stood up with a smile on his face, "Since he is a prisoner, he will naturally be treated differently."

"Mark them as slaves and become war slaves! Let those outsiders know that the sect cannot be deceived!"
