Chapter 803: Is this the reason for the Dao One Sect's strength?

Feeling their lifespan slip away bit by bit—this feeling simply couldn't be described in words.

Therefore, the two Qingyun Sect Ancestors had only one thought at this moment, which was to enter seclusion and sleep, so they could at least live a few more years.

Facing the Ancestors who were in a bad mood, Chen Qingyu didn't dare to be presumptuous and appeared hesitant and conflicted.

Seeing this, one of the Ancestors ate a spirit fruit, felt his lifespan increase by a few days, and said, "Better than nothing."

"Speak, what is the matter?"

"Oh, this disciple wishes to ask the Ancestors to take action."

"You want to strike first to gain the advantage?"

Hearing this, the two Ancestors' gazes turned unkind; this brat had no good intentions.

It wasn't to say that striking first was wrong; in fact, if the plan was good, there might even be unexpected gains.

But if they were to strike first, to say nothing else, the two old fellows would definitely be the most dangerous.

At that time, the best result for Yu Mo and the others would be mutual destruction, and the worst result would be that the two of them were killed by Yu Mo and the others, while Yu Mo and the others were seriously injured.

But regardless of which result it was, it was unacceptable to them personally.

Either way, it looked like they were going to die.

Facing the unkind gazes of the Ancestors, Chen Qingyu hurriedly spoke up.

"No, no, this disciple didn't mean that. It's just that in the last two days, the Dao One Sect's actions have been very strange, and this disciple suspects that there must be a secret hidden within the Dao One Sect."

"And although this disciple has already taken action personally, the Dao One Sect's Lingcheng has strict defenses, and this disciple could not enter, so I wish to ask the Ancestors to take action personally."

Chen Qingyu said truthfully; there was no other way.

In his conjecture, as long as he could figure out the secret of the Dao One Sect, he would be able to know what the Dao One Sect wanted to do.

Hearing this, the two Ancestors' gazes finally softened a bit, though they didn't agree immediately.

Weighing things in their hearts, what the two of them were worried about was nothing more than the reaction of Yu Mo and the others.

To put it bluntly, they were still cowards.

Just as Yu Mo had said before, like these Ancestors, don't look at how they were all nearing the end of their lifespan; many of them were actually very afraid of death.

This was human nature—the longer you live, the more afraid you are of dying.

Not to mention that they were standing at the pinnacle of the Eastern Continent, holding endless resources and power in their hands—who would be willing to give that up?

Seeing the Ancestors' concerns, Chen Qingyu whispered.

"It is just to investigate; if the Dao One Sect reacts fiercely, at worst we can give them some compensation."

Up until now, the Dao One Sect had shown no signs of taking action. In Chen Qingyu's view, it was impossible for a war between the two sects to break out over such a small matter, right? That didn't make much sense.

Hearing this, after pondering for a long while, the two Ancestors finally nodded.

"The two of us will take action on this matter, but we cannot guarantee success. If Yu Mo and the others............."

They didn't finish, but the meaning was already very clear.

Once the reaction of Yu Mo and the others was too great, they would withdraw in time.

Hearing this, although Chen Qingyu was somewhat dissatisfied in his heart, he still nodded in agreement.

He then respectfully exited the Ancestors' residence.

The next day, at the poetry gathering, looking at the Dao One Sect's spot, where only a single handymen disciple sat alone, everyone's mouths twitched.

This was simply going too far; at least there was a companion before, but today you only sent a single seedling? And what the hell is that Meridian Opening Realm cultivation?

"What are you looking at? Let's begin."

This handymen disciple spoke with a look of annoyance; just because he was the weakest, he was sent to participate in this Dongwen poetry gathering—could the strong just bully people?

Hearing the disciple's completely impolite words, a sound of grinding teeth immediately erupted.

There was no need to doubt it; if this weren't a Dao One Sect disciple, the people of Dongwen Academy would have likely torn him to pieces long ago. ===== CHAPTER 804 =====
