Now He Shouzhong is obstructing him in every possible way, as if he wants to go back on his word.
He Shouzhong looked at the young master with cold eyes: "Wan Yan, do you want to die?"
"He Shouzhong, you don't need to threaten me. To put it bluntly, everyone joins the cult just for profit. If there is no profit, why should we join this cult at a time when the situation in the Holy Kingdom of Tuntian is tense?"
Wan Yan's voice was sonorous and powerful: "Don't fool us with divine envoys and divine power. We are all masters. Compared with martial arts talent, must we be inferior to you? You think that the divine power of the divine religion is powerful and it is the blessing of the gods. I think so. You think that power is too dangerous, and you have gone completely crazy."
"Master Wan, don't hurt the harmony." Seeing He Shouzhong's expression gradually becoming indifferent, he said to Hongyu: "He Shenshi also has good intentions. After all, none of us can tell whether this palace is in danger or not. If you break in rashly, you will really encounter the back-up force left by the powerful heavenly being... "
"enough!"
Wan Yanduan gave a shout, stared at the silent He Shouzhong and said: "He Shenshi? It's so majestic. You dragged the entire He family into the god's religion and lorded it over Linzhou, but you seem to have forgotten Well, the head of the He family is not you, He Shouzhong, right?"
"Wanyan!"
He Shouzhong suddenly became angry.
What he is most taboo about is others using his position as the head of the He family to make a fuss.
At that time, the He family's affairs were well known to everyone, and the entire Linzhou regarded the He family as a laughing stock. Within the family, many clan elders respected him openly, but secretly commented that he was a waste. As the legitimate son, in the end, But he couldn't keep what he deserved, and instead let an illegitimate son take over.
For He Shouzhong, this matter was like an inversion. Anyone who mentioned it would remind him of his original humiliation.
"Why, you are so angry?" Wan Yan was not afraid. He looked at He Shouwei who was silent and said: "Master He, do you think what I said is wrong? Is it possible that the He family can have the status it has today because of He Shouzhong?" What’s the credit? Now He Shouzhong is acting arbitrarily and has tied the interests of the entire He family to the interests of the divine religion. If you are not careful, the foundation of the He family will be destroyed!"
"This guy, don't be a 'fool'."
Lu Li cursed in his heart.
The timing of Wan Yan's appearance was really too 'coincidental', and he targeted He Shouzhong as soon as he opened his mouth, and cleverly brought up the topic of the He family, forcing He Showei to choose a stance.
Such an arrangement has too many traces, and it is obviously not Wan Yan's own idea.
Recalling He Shouwei's words before, Lu Li knew that this guy had wanted to deal with He Shouzhong for more than a day or two, and he definitely had some confidence or a few reliable allies.
Now it seems that Wan Yan is one.
What about the rest
Lu Li glanced at the other grandmasters. So far, none of these people had clearly expressed their attitudes. Whether it is the Divine Religion or the He family, they seem to be drifting with the crowd.
"Master Wan, this is a family matter of the He family. I'm afraid it's not the turn of outsiders to take care of it."
He Shouwei seemed to have made his position clear after some struggle.
"Haha, family matters? Your He family is about to become the lackeys of the cult now. What family matters are there to talk about?"
Wan Yan sneered and said: "Don't you think so? The divine religion has been in a latent state for the past eight years in Linzhou. Without the He family to fuel the flames, the divine religion would not be able to quickly establish itself. Regarding the nature of the divine religion, , you all should be well aware of it. It is a complete cult! Once the Heaven-Devouring Holy Kingdom reacts and investigates to the end, any force that colludes with the divine religion will not gain much benefit!"
"In my opinion, it is better to divide the treasures in Tianren Cave now and draw a clear line with the divine religion to avoid being liquidated by the Heaven-Swallowing Holy Kingdom in the future."
Several grandmasters were silent.
They were not fools, so they could naturally tell that something was wrong with Wan Yan's attitude.
It was so obvious that he was targeting He Shouzhong, and even the divine sect. Unless Wan Yan was crazy, there must be someone behind him to join forces.
Why
Someone looked at He Shouwei, trying to find some clues from his expression.
It's a pity that He Shouwei looked helpless at this moment, as if Wan Yan had removed the last fig leaf. Not only was he unexpected, but he was also quite embarrassed.
The He family is now firmly controlled by the divine religion, and he, the head of the family, cannot escape the blame.
He couldn't refute Wan Yan's words because they were all facts.
"Master Wan, Master He, there is no need to break up the peace over a trivial matter. Now is the time when we need to work together. We still have to put the overall situation first."
Xiang Hongyu still plays the role of peacemaker.
However, while he was speaking, he had secretly changed his position and quietly left He Shouzhong's side.
If He Shouzhong was alert enough at this moment, he would have discovered that his position formed an offensive and defensive angle with Wan Yan and He Shouwei.
If Wan Yan or He Shouwei take action suddenly, Xiang Hongyu can both defend against and join forces with the two of them.
"Overall situation? For whose overall situation?"
However, Qu Zun, the oldest among the people, gave a meaningful sneer: "For the overall situation of the divine religion, or for the overall situation of our Linzhou family?"
"The overall situation of the divine religion is our overall situation."
He Shouzhong said calmly, then looked at Wan Yan and said: "If you have any dissatisfaction with the divine religion, wait until the great envoy arrives and talk to you in person."
"Also, if you are not afraid of any formation back-up hidden in this palace and insist on entering, I, He Shouzhong, am not a villain who can ruin people's wealth. You can go ahead and I will never stop you."
"He Shenshang, that's not what we meant."
Among the remaining three masters, one of them did not want to risk entering the palace, and sighed: "What Master Wan said is indeed reasonable, but Tianren Cave is full of dangers. If we are not careful, with our strength, then You can’t escape the fate of death.”
He looked at the corpse of the grandmaster covering the bridge, and continued: "Back then, this powerful celestial being was able to kill thousands of grandmasters, and no one could step into the palace. This proves that the grandmaster is like an ant in his eyes. You can kill if you want, and you can crush him to death at will. Who can guarantee that... there won't be any back-up for him in this palace? Have you forgotten those puppet armors just now?"
When the puppet armor was mentioned, all the masters fell silent.
Those immortal warriors who survived by chance showed expressions of lingering fear.
The Puppet Armor that fell through the crack just now caused them heavy losses. If they hadn't been lucky enough to have a Grandmaster beside them to open the way, they would have died in the Puppet Armor's hands by now.
"Okay, stop arguing." At this time, He Shouwei suddenly said.
"The great envoy hasn't arrived yet, and we can't just sit here and wait. The palace must be explored, so why not do this. We sent two grandmasters with some immortal realms to check the situation around first. After all, is there anything in the palace? There is a danger that none of us can be sure of.”
"Instead of just sitting here arguing, it's better to do something."
Hearing He Shouwei's words, Qu Zun immediately shouted: "Two Grandmasters? Who to send? Who is suitable?"
Several others also looked at He Shouwei, waiting for his answer.
No matter which two masters are sent to explore the surroundings, they are likely to encounter danger. At this time, who to send and how to arrange it may become a new round of debate.
Several grandmasters actually didn't care about the life or death of others, and they were also able to accept the solution proposed by He Shouwei. However, they naturally want others to do things that require personal risk.
He Shouwei looked around, and finally said solemnly: "Since I made this proposal, count me in."
"Which Grandmaster is willing to be with He?"
The atmosphere suddenly fell into silence.
For a moment, no one paid any attention to He Shouwei's words.
Even He Shouzhong said nothing.
"I go."
After a moment, Xiang Hongyu stood up, looked at He Shouwei and said, "Since the head of the He family is willing to take the lead, let Xiang go with the head of the He family."
"Okay." He Shouwei nodded in agreement without saying anything, and then said: "Master Xiang and I approached the palace to investigate, and the others may wish to search nearby. Those puppet armors appeared a bit strange before, be careful of their comeback."
"Master He, don't worry."
"The most dangerous tasks have been taken over by you. Leave small things like this to us."
A few people were naturally happy to do so.
He Shouwei nodded, and then exchanged a look with Xiang Hongyu.
Xiang Hongyu immediately said: "If the great envoy arrives, please inform him in time."
