The people in the Council Pavilion were indeed hesitating. The more unusual the action, the more sincere it seemed.
"But we still don't understand why the Eastern Peak Sect would do such a thing."
One elder shook his head and said, "Though your Eastern Peak Sect is getting stronger, in terms of influence or even your bloodline, it's not enough to become a first-rate Great Sect. Even if we wanted to support you, it would be difficult to elevate you."
At this point, Du Feng clenched his fist: "Naturally, the elders can see that most of the people in our Eastern Peak Sect have lowly blood. If we want to become a more powerful sect, we must pass the hurdle of the City Lord Mansion. To be honest, we have approached the City Lord, but he was unyielding. In desperation, we turned to you, elders."
The leading elder angrily said, "What boldness, wanting to bet on both sides. What do you take us for?"
