When Elder Hughes and Hal arrived at the Macefield Chamber of Commerce, Sandra and others were safely seated in the hall. They arrived in advance. Although they felt that the temple had no means to overturn the situation, no one dared to do so.
Be careless when it counts.
The winner wins everything, the loser loses everything, even his life.
Sitting at the top was Ashin, with Melissa standing quietly and respectfully beside him. The soldiers of the Iron Mask Corps stood side by side with their backs against the white wall, standing silently, creating a solemn atmosphere.
It was really well guarded, Hughes sighed in his heart. The strength of the Iron Mask Corps was better than he thought. These soldiers were wearing iron masks, but he could still see a lot of things. Everyone was on alert, but he didn't see it.
Which soldier's eyes wandered or his mind was absent.
It is not easy to do this. It is not difficult for soldiers to concentrate when encountering emergencies, but it is much more difficult to maintain their concentration in calm situations. Being able to do this
At one point, they are all elites, which shows that their training is very difficult in order to imprint discipline into their abilities.
Hughes focused his attention. No matter how elite the Iron Mask Corps was, if they could not be persuaded, it would be the worst thing for the temple.
Hughes smiled bitterly in his heart, he was not sure at all.
But at this time, there was no room for him to back down. He didn't waste any words and first bowed to A Xin above: "I've seen Senior Xin."
Ashin nodded: "Elder Hughes must have brought the sincerity of the temple. I wonder what conditions the temple is willing to offer?"
The attention of Sandra and others was immediately attracted.
Hughes was not used to such a direct style of acting, but at this time he was heartbroken and said straight to the point: "As long as the Mesfield family is willing to follow the temple, the Mesfield family will be the only wealthy family in Guangming Continent in the future. Regardless of whether the Mesfield family has
Whatever your need, the temple can meet it."
Several sneers rang out, but Huo Liuzhang and the others showed mocking looks. At this time, the temple still had such a condescending attitude, it was simply a matter of life and death.
"The temple is the temple. I have become accustomed to being the master of Guangming Continent. As for others, they can only be servants." Hal sarcastically said, not forgetting to add insult to injury.
But what he said was right.
The attitude of the temple is very clear. The temple must be the master and the Masefield family is the subordinate. And if the Masefield family joins the wealthy alliance, it will be as a partner. In the future, everyone will be the master of Guangming Continent. Although it will involve
The distribution of power and interests, but at least everyone is equal in status.
The difference is huge.
Sandra and others breathed a sigh of relief. They were most worried that in order to reverse the situation of the war, the Temple would be willing to promise to rule Guangming Continent with Masefield in the future. Of course, even so, they had reasons. The Temple had a covenant with them back then.
But the attitude of the temple still surprised them.
The Temple is tantamount to pushing the Masefield family in front of them. The Temple's arrogance is truly hopeless.
Ashin was noncommittal. He pretended to glance casually at the guard not far away. He looked at Tang Tian Qianhui and saw the wariness in each other's eyes.
The temple's arrogance and lack of retreat are becoming increasingly abnormal at this time.
Hughes didn't know why the great elder refused to give in at this time. Although he said that he would win over the Macefield family no matter what conditions, he refused to give the most important condition.
But fortunately, he didn't have any chips.
He calmed down and said in a deep voice: "The temple is willing to teach methods to resist the erosion of time, which can extend the life of Senior Xin."
The faces of Sandra and others suddenly froze, and a trace of panic flashed in their eyes. They finally understood that they had overlooked an important point. Senior Xin was a soul general.
Only then did they understand where the strength of the temple lies.
If there is a way to withstand the erosion of time, the time that Senior Xin will exist can be greatly extended. For the Masefield family, Senior Xin is their patron saint, and the value of this is self-evident in that it can prevent the family's patron saint from disappearing.
.
This was an offer the Masefield family could not refuse.
"Impossible!" Huoliu said suddenly: "The laws of the world eroded by time cannot be resisted by humans. You are talking nonsense."
There was a slight inflection in his voice, which showed the horror in his heart.
Instead, Hughes calmed down. In fact, he didn't really believe it at all, but he didn't care about that much at this time. He pretended to be confident and said: "It seems that you have forgotten that the temple was the first to start soul research, and I believe there is no such thing.
Who would invest more in this than the temple."
Hughes was full of confidence when he said this. Yes, who is more authoritative than the temple in terms of soul research?
Sandra, who had been watching with cold eyes, suddenly smiled and said leisurely: "Yes, when it comes to soul research, no one is more authoritative than the temple."
As soon as Sandra opened her mouth, an ominous premonition suddenly arose in Hughes's heart.
On the contrary, Huo Liuzhang and others, who were initially panicked, immediately became calm. They knew Sandra very well, and since he spoke, there must be something he could do.
Sandra continued leisurely: "Thank you to the temple for helping us study for so long. We will definitely carry forward these results. There are still many good things in the temple, and we will cherish them."
Huo Liuzhang and others' eyes lit up. Yes, as long as the temple is captured, everything in the temple belongs to them.
Hughes's heart skipped a beat, but he kept calm on his face and sneered: "Really? Even if you capture the temple, you will only get ruins."
"Perish together? You have overestimated the bloody nature of the elders." Sandra chuckled: "Not everyone is willing to be buried with the temple. We also have many friends in the temple. As long as the temple has this thing
, then it will be ours."
Hughes's face finally changed. There was an elder colluding with the enemy!
There was boundless bitterness in his heart. In fact, he had been unwilling to admit it. These wealthy families had been secretly planning this action for an unknown period of time. Their infiltration into the temple may have been going on for many years, and Hughes has been aware of it over the years.
Looking back now, there were many signs in the past, but I only thought that these people were deliberately making friends, and I never expected that their intentions were so big.
At this moment, Ashin suddenly said lightly: "I don't need it."
His eyes turned to Xiaoran involuntarily. Here, Xiaoran was probably the only one who could understand him best and how difficult the long years were.
The two people's eyes met in the air, and Ashin felt the warmth and concern in Xiaoran's eyes.
An imperceptible smile couldn't help but bloom at the corner of his mouth.
Feels great.
Suddenly, a glimmer of understanding arose in his heart. Before meeting Miss Xiaoran, his world was only the past, but now, his world is still the present.
I don't just live in my memory.
The world of black and white seemed to become brighter, more alive, more vivid and with different colors at this moment, even if he was just a soul general.
very nice.
Ashin's eyes turned to Elder Xius and said: "If that's the case, I'm sorry..."
A smile finally appeared on Sandra's face, knowing that the temple had completely failed.
"It still failed!"
Suddenly, a low, majestic and unfamiliar voice interrupted Ashin's words.
Ashin suddenly stood up, his eyes widened, and he stared at Hughes. Everyone else stood up in shock, looking at Hughes with a ghostly expression on their faces.
The unfamiliar voice just now actually came from Hughes's mouth.
Everyone could see that something was wrong with Hughes. Hughes's body was stiff and motionless. His eyes were unfocused and unfocused. Only his mouth could open and close. The scene in front of them was so weird that everyone felt a chill rising from behind.
Standing up, the hairs on the hair stand on end.
Sandra stared at Hughes with horror on her face: "Great Elder!"
"Haha." Hughes remained motionless, opening and closing his mouth, and his voice seemed to resound from his chest: "Sandra, I didn't expect you could still hear my voice. We haven't seen each other for twenty years."
Sandra's expression returned to normal: "Yes, I haven't seen her for twenty-three years."
"Your memory is always better than mine. I really don't want to meet. The old friends from back then are now having to fight to the death." The great elder sighed.
"I'm just taking back what belongs to us." Sandra said calmly.
"Everything in Guangming Continent, including you, only belongs to the temple." The great elder's tone was calm, but extremely domineering.
Sandra was unmoved: "That's why we have this war."
"Twenty years ago, I understood your disobedience, but it was difficult for me to attack you. Everything is over, Sandra. Thanks to this war, a new era is about to begin."
Sandra's face darkened, and he felt a little uneasy.
"Guangmingzhou does not need famous families, Guangmingzhou only needs temples." The great elder's voice was full of fanaticism, and Hughes's body was trembling.
Sandra suddenly understood, and there was disbelief in his eyes: "You have to deal with all the famous families!"
"Do you understand now? Sandra, you have regressed." The great elder's voice became more and more fanatical: "The temple needs rebirth, Guangming Continent needs rebirth. Only I can give them new life! It's a pity, Sandra, you see
It’s not here anymore.”
Elder Hughes, who was trembling violently all over, suddenly burst out with a wisp of white flames.
Holy flame!
The pure and gentle holy flames showed how profound Xius's attainments were. The holy flames enveloped Xius' whole body, like a man on fire.
Everyone feels the breath of danger, but they don't know where the danger comes from.
Tang Tian's movements were the fastest, and he attacked Elder Xius almost as soon as the holy flames emerged. His intuition was extremely sharp, but at this time, his heart was enveloped by an unprecedented sense of danger.
Death! He smelled death!
Ever since he realized the Awakening Divine Equipment, how long has it been since he experienced the feeling of being threatened by death?
The warning sign was so strong that all the hairs on Tang Tian's body stood on end involuntarily.
puff!
Elder Hughes' head exploded like a watermelon, but his body did not fall.
