Chapter 79: Rejecting Sun Ru's invitation

Both Grand Elder Guoliang and Grand Elder Gong Xian rose to their feet in unison, their expressions etched with adamant resolve as they vehemently opposed Sun Ru's proposal. Unlike the Sun Clan, they don't have so many seventh layer and eight-layer Qi Gathering Realm cultivators to treat them like guard dogs. Qian Guoliang and Xin Clans cherished their disciples as prized talents. Each disciple accompanying them was an important asset to their respective clans.

They had invested years of resources and time in nurturing them, a single loss would be bleeding to their respective clans.

The tension in the air was palpable, thick with the unspoken fear of potential casualties. Both of the grand elders knew that even a single carelessness could spell disaster for their clans. The presence of Li Meiren, the esteemed sister of the Qian Clan's matriarch, and Miyuki, the sole daughter of the Qian Clan patriarch, only heightened the stakes.
