Chapter 2739: Someone Will Naturally Speak for Me
After thinking it through and seeing it openly, there's naturally nothing to get hung up on.
Although I just had a meal at Ye Zhangqing's place, eating another meal together with the Clan Chief now is also completely fine.
The two elders were still eating with grease all over their mouths, the speed of their dry rice was no slower than before.
Even the Iron Peak Clan Chief was stunned; these two old fellows, their speed like wind sweeping away clouds, is a bit faster than the elders and sturdy men.
"I said, can you guys be a bit more refined?"
"Clan Chief, I'm already refined, I'm eating with restraint."
"You call that eating with restraint? Leave some for me, you ate it all."
The Iron Powder Clan Chief's face turned black; a plate of vegetables, he didn't even get a single chopstick, and was completely eaten clean by these two old fellows.
The three ate to their heart's content, but others were completely unaware of this.
The other elders who were on the same side as these two elders learned that they had gone to Ye Zhangqing's residence, and then went straight to the Clan Chief's place.
Naturally, they all thought the two were surely going to ask the Clan Chief to order the execution of those human race members.
After all, it was clear to them why the two went to Ye Zhangqing's place; they knew this was the Clan Chief's order.
Although they were still puzzled, not knowing what the Clan Chief meant by this.
But now that they've gone, the two going to see the Clan Chief—what else could it be for besides this?
Thinking that the leader big brother had gone, and everyone was on the same side, the other few elders didn't hesitate much and immediately rushed toward the Iron Peak Clan Chief's place.
The matter is everyone's affair, so naturally there's no reason to let anyone single-handedly take the lead.
At the Iron Peak Clan Chief's residence, the three had just finished eating, feeling fully satisfied and took a comfortable breath.
At that moment, they heard that several elders were requesting an audience.
Upon hearing this, the two elders' faces changed, their expressions instantly becoming complex.
As for the Iron Peak Clan Chief, he seemed completely indifferent, even giving the two a glance with a look of watching the show, appearing detached and eager to watch the drama.
"Let them come in."
He then said with a smile, "You came really fast, but your leader big brother is gone, and you still want to pull some tricks."
Not long after, those elders were brought in.
Seeing the Iron Peak Clan Chief and their own two leader big brothers present, they all showed an expression of 'as expected'.
As they expected, the matter is exactly so.
Since that's the case, they surely must play their part, lending their big brother a helping hand.
Thinking this, the Iron Blade Elder in the crowd spoke first.
"Clan Chief, the human race……."
I originally wanted to say, the human race matter shouldn't be delayed any longer; killing a few post-heaven human race members, what's there to hesitate about? Just kill them.
But before the Iron Blade Elder could finish speaking, one of the elders present interjected.
"Enough, don't say it."
"Huh???"
"I haven't even spoken yet, and you tell me not to say it?"
Hearing this, the Iron Blade Elder looked at his own leader big brother, eyes full of suspicion—'Why can't I say it?'
As for the Iron Peak Clan Chief seated above, he wore a look of watching the show, with no intention to interject.
Facing the Iron Blade's gaze, that elder felt utterly helpless, but what could be done now?
Continue to kill Ye Zhangqing? Besides anything else, he himself couldn't bear to do it.
So, he could only accept defeat.
But the Iron Blade Elder didn't know these things; the two made eye contact, and from his own leader big brother's eyes he saw a hint of helplessness.
A flash of inspiration struck him: had they hit a wall at the Clan Chief's place? Or was the Clan Chief still undecided?
For such a small matter, why have they been hesitating all along? If so, then let us add fuel to the fire.
Thinking this, the Iron Blade Elder felt he had understood everything, and immediately gave his leader big brother a reassuring look.
"Huh???"
But regarding this, the elder was completely bewildered—'What kind of look is this? What does it mean? What are you telling me to set my heart at ease about?'
For a moment he had no idea, and at that moment the Iron Blade's gaze fell upon the Iron Peak Clan Chief again.
His expression was resolute, showing that he had made some kind of decision.
Seeing the Iron Blade's expression, the two elders were instantly startled, already sensing that something would happen—this old thing's expression surely wouldn't produce anything good.
They immediately prepared to speak up again to stop it.
"Wait……"
But the words reached their lips, still not as fast as the Iron Blade, who got ahead by a step.
Only hearing the Iron Blade's words ring out, he gazed fiercely at the Iron Peak Clan Chief and said:
"Clan Chief, this is merely a few post-heaven human race members; what does it have to do with my Iron Peak Tribe? Kill them, then kill them."
"These days, we elders have repeatedly advised, yet I don't know what the Clan Chief still hesitates over; it's just a small matter—must we really keep hesitating like this?"
"Iron Blade Boldly, please Clan Chief, now order the extermination of the human race."
"Damn it."
Upon hearing this, the two elders' faces turned black—indeed, they really couldn't squeeze out anything good.
"Kill whom? Kill the human race? How could that be done?"
As for the Iron Peak Clan Chief, hearing these words that were almost disrespectful, he showed no change in expression and had no intention to get angry.
On the contrary, he looked with a smile at the two former leader big brothers and said with a laugh:
"What do you think? How should this matter be handled?"
Well, seeing that the clan chief clearly had the look of someone watching a show, the two elders also knew they couldn't stay out of it.
Immediately, they could only steel themselves and speak.
"Don't bring this up again. My Iron Peak Tribe, and indeed the entire Barbarian God Tribe, have no grudge whatsoever with the Human Race."
"If there's no grudge, how can we indiscriminately kill the innocent? Since the Human Race has mistakenly entered our Barbarian God Tribe Divine Realm, they are our friends. Friends coming from afar should be welcomed; how could we harm our friends?"
"Exactly. If anyone says that again later, I, the old man, will be the first to object. The Human Race is our Iron Peak Tribe's friend; we must treat them well."
Huh???
As the two finished speaking, the other several elders in the room all went dumbfounded, staring at their own two leading brothers as if struck by lightning.
Their eyes were filled with doubt and incomprehension, plus questioning.
No, shouldn't these words be coming from your mouths?
Don't forget how we came together; it's nothing more than the two of you pulling us together.
Now that the team has been formed, you two leaders have actually turned against us.
The Human Race is our Iron Peak Tribe's friend; why didn't you two say so earlier?
Just now, when he spoke, the aggressive Tie Dao stood there dumbfounded, with only one thought repeatedly churning in his mind.
"Have I been sold out? I was supposed to follow the elder brother in the charge, but halfway through, the elder brother betrayed us and turned to charge at me."
Inside, he felt a mixture of five flavors.
