Upon hearing this, the expressions of the various sect leaders changed. Could it be that Yu Zhenzi really intended to act stubbornly? How should they proceed from here?

Although they were already united, none of them wanted to become the sacrificial pawn at the end and create a wedding dress for others.

So even if a great battle really came, they could not go all out, after all, if they fell, what would become of their sects?

However, Yu Zhenzi’s next words caused their expressions to change once more. None of them spoke again, instead, they silently listened to Yu Zhenzi’s suggestion.

“But, I also know that you will not let my Hua Tian Sect take the entire Upper Green Sect for ourselves, so I have another plan.

The Upper Green Sect’s 50% of resources go to me, and the remaining 50% are divided by you. In this way, I believe you can also accept it.

In exchange for your acceptance, I can swear by the Heavenly Dao that as long as you do not plot against my Hua Tian Sect, within the next five thousand years, we will not harbor any ill intentions towards your Sects and coexist peacefully. What do you think?”

When these words were spoken, everyone present couldn’t help but ponder in their hearts. Hua Tian Sect would indeed gain a significant increase in strength with 50% of the Upper Green Sect’s resources.

However, since Hua Tian Sect is already the strongest right now, exchanging for five thousand years of peace wouldn’t be so bad either.

After all, for cultivators, breaking through the Nascent Soul stage would increase their lifespan by 3,000 years, but who could guarantee that Hua Tian Sect would still have two Nascent Soul Masters at the same time after 5,000 years?

Seeing that they were moved, Yu Zhenzi spoke again, “If you agree to this proposal, our Hua Tian Sect is willing to immediately let go of our prejudices and work together to investigate the cause of Chenyangzi’s death.

After all, just as fellow Daoists have said, Chenyangzi’s death is too unusual, and we should indeed conduct a thorough investigation.

Although Chenyangzi was injured before, it is impossible for a Nascent Soul Master to die so silently. If it is said that a Divinity Transformation Venerable was behind it, this is also impossible.

Because the Heavenly Dao simply would not allow a Divinity Transformation Venerable to take action in our Desolate Regions. There is a reaction from the Heavenly Dao when they take action.

So, I’m afraid that the hidden culprit has a cultivation level at most of a Nascent Soul Master, but if this is the case, the means of the other party must be extremely terrifying, otherwise, why would it come to this?”

The other sect leaders looked at each other at this moment, and Tian Ningzi of the Heaven Heart Sect suddenly spoke up, “I think what Daoist friend Yu Zhenzi said is not unreasonable.”

As soon as he said this, the emotions of everyone present seemed to be released all at once. Dandingzi, who had his eyes closed at this moment, sighed in his heart.

In the end, it was all for the sake of their own interests. Would the disciples of the Upper Green Sect ever have imagined such a situation?

Next, the sect leaders began to discuss how the Upper Green Sect should be divided. After all, a 50% share for the Hua Tian Sect was a bit too much.

As they were discussing enthusiastically, Dandingzi suddenly stood up. In an instant, everyone’s gaze involuntarily turned to him.

“Fellow Daoists, since you have already decided to negotiate, there is no need for me to stay here.

My Dan Ding Sect’s ancestral teachings are to maintain permanent neutrality and advance or retreat together with the other sects. So as for the fate of the Upper Green Sect, you can decide for yourselves.

No matter what the outcome is, my Dan Ding Sect’s position has always been the same. I suddenly remembered that I still had a lot of things to deal with due to the Beast Tide, so I will return to my Sect today.”

With these words, the expressions of the other sect leaders couldn’t help but change slightly, then returned to normal. Yu Zhenzi took the initiative to speak up at this moment.

“Over these years, you have indeed gone through a lot of trouble to provide spiritual pills to support our sects in fighting against the Beast Tide. Daoist friend, since you have other matters to attend to, it’s only right that you return to your Sect first to handle them.

So, we won’t see you off. Since Chenyangzi’s death is too strange, we will definitely do our best to investigate it. There’s no need for you to stay and waste your time with us.”

“Thank you all for your understanding. Dandingzi, taking my leave.”

After saying this, Dandingzi left with a smile, leaving the sect leaders sitting together to negotiate. By the time Dandingzi returned to the Dan Ding Sect, the final decision had also been communicated to him.

In the end, the Upper Green Sect could not avoid being divided and disbanded by the remaining three sects and four paths. However, the Hua Tian Sect ultimately seized 30%, while the remaining 70% were divided among the other six sects.

From then on, there were no longer three sects and six paths in this Desolate Region. Instead, it became two sects and six paths. As for the death of Chenyangzi, they indeed did not go back on their word. Each major sect sent out a joint investigation team to station themselves at the original sect gate of Upper Green Sect for investigation.

As for why so many people stayed behind, whether they genuinely wanted to investigate the cause or had other intentions of suppressing the original Upper Green Sect disciples, it is unknown.

At this moment, when the Dan Ding Sect received the news, they each had their own thoughts. However, the upper echelons of the Dan Ding Sect remained consistent in their actions.

At this time, they still kept the Mountain Protection Formation active, after all, the cause of Chenyangzi’s death had yet to be found, and they couldn’t be too careful.

At the time when Liang Sheng received the news, he couldn’t help but sneer. What was the difference between these cultivation sects and the mundane world imperial dynasty?

It was only when one was alive that everything was possible. Chenyangzi had died; their former allies became wolves due to a few words.

That’s why he also had to be careful. Only by living, living well, and cultivating his strength could he truly guarantee his own longevity.

However, Liang Sheng had some speculations about Chenyangzi’s mysterious death because an unharmed death is something that people of the same realm could actually achieve, although it would require some means.

For example, the Nail-Head Seven Arrows Technique.

Before, Chenyangzi’s lifespan was said to be less than eight hundred years. If a Nascent Soul Monarch desired to curse him to death, it was indeed possible.

However, Liang Sheng did not share this conjecture with others. In any case, the murderer was likely a Nascent Soul Monarch, so why should a small Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator like him come forward and court death?

As a mere “Foundation Establishment” now, and with the Dan Ding Sect’s style very much in line with his preferences, he should only focus on cultivating and growing instead of getting into trouble.

Seeking the Immortal Dao?

Ultimately, it’s all about self-preservation!
