There are countless geniuses in the world of cultivation, but only my junior sister Sha Diao

Gu Xia didn't plan to show herself so early. She wanted to see how these people would react, so she and the other three concealed their presence and observed the old foxes exchanging veiled remarks.

It must be said that those who can become heads of families must have some extraordinary qualities.

For example: extremely shameless.

Clearly, they had been observing coldly from the beginning, yet now, with just a few words, they had shifted all the blame onto the demons, while conveniently absolving themselves of any responsibility.

Of course, in Gu Xia's view, the demons were not good people, and they themselves were not necessarily clean either.

If she can understand it, then the Ye family head must understand it even more clearly.

He said these things simply to vent his pent-up frustration, since he had anticipated this situation.

It's true that you only feel the pain when the knife falls on your own head.

Previously, the Ye family head and these people shared similar thoughts, remaining indifferent to matters that didn't concern him. However, after experiencing a near-extinction crisis, he finally realized this.

Blindly giving in will not get them the results they want.

The fact that the demons dared to so brazenly attack the Ye family might be because they saw through the demons' true nature of preferring to remain neutral.

Therefore, he not only had no objection to helping Gu Xia trick everyone into coming, but was actually happy to see it happen.

Since the Ye family has already taken the plunge, do you guys still want to stand by and wait to reap the benefits?

There aren't even windows, let alone doors.

Let them all come down.

Of course, the other prominent families were unaware of his true thoughts.

After they hypocritically expressed their sympathy for the Ye family, they saw that the old man, the Ye family head, had a smiling face and would offer them tea one moment and then suddenly change the subject the next, never getting to the point.

Who knows where the Ye family would get tea after being struck by lightning and reduced to ruins?

They had no interest in enjoying tea, and their carefully maintained composure gradually turned into a state of impatience.

While they were talking, several family heads with high levels of spiritual awareness quietly extended their divine senses, trying to investigate the surrounding situation and find out if the person they imagined undergoing tribulation was actually here.

However, the Ye family head was cunning and shrewd, and had long anticipated that they would pull this stunt.

The Ye family was completely covered by isolation talismans in all directions. As soon as the divine sense reached out, it hit a wall. After trying everywhere without success, it could only slink back.

Seeing the Ye family head holding his teacup with such a composed demeanor, what else could these people not understand?

Damn it, that old bastard did it on purpose!!

Since that's the case, they might as well stop pretending.

The head of the Su family had always disliked him, and was the first to retort, "Enough, head of the Ye family. You surely know why we're here today. Why go through all this trouble?"

"I wonder how those people my patriarch sent are doing now? Where has your Ye family imprisoned them?"

With one person taking the lead, the others naturally couldn't hold back and asked the same question one after another.

The Ye family head appeared calm on the surface, but inwardly he was laughing so hard he wanted to die.

He knew these old rivals all too well. Even at this point, they were still trying to test him. On the surface, they were asking about the dozen or so missing cultivators, but their eyes clearly revealed something else entirely.

They wanted to ask about the tribulation lightning tribulation during the tribulation stage, but were afraid that the Ye family had a close relationship with the other party and that speaking rashly would offend them.

In fact, if we're really going to talk about it, everyone here has had dealings with the other side.

It's just a coincidence that the Ye family, despite their misfortune, somehow gained the upper hand.

The head of the Ye family casually put down his teacup and immediately felt refreshed.

Yes, he did it on purpose.

A bunch of old guys deliberately annoyed him so many times, now it's finally their turn to feel uneasy, isn't it?

"Everyone, please be patient."

He smiled and raised his hand, "Those people are naturally fine."

After saying that, Patriarch Xie spoke in a deep voice, "What do you mean by the matter of life and death you mentioned in the jade slip?"

The head of the Ye family raised an eyebrow, and instead of answering, asked, "What are your thoughts on the Demon Clan's attack on the Ye family?"

Opinions? What other opinions could there be?

The head of the Su family sneered, "Is that even a question? Isn't it all because of the trouble your good son caused?"

He has always been inexplicably confident, and from the very beginning he scoffed at the idea of ​​these direct descendants joining the Five Sects.

Having finally seized a ready-made opportunity, they immediately began to criticize indiscriminately.

"I've said it before, none of those direct disciples are any good."

The family heads, who hadn't even had a chance to speak before their child was suddenly scolded, were all bewildered.

The four members of Gu Xia's group, who were secretly eavesdropping, were speechless.

6Wow.

You know how to stir up hatred.
