"Elder Tian, the Jiuyou Netherworld Beast seems suppressed beneath this abyss by you, but they actually have other plans. Right beneath our feet, a thousand zhang deep, they've set up a great array. Though its exact formation is unknown, beasts so scheming surely bear ill intent. If that array is activated, it might be a disaster. We must retreat at once." Ye Lanfeng spoke bluntly, without concealment.
"Retreat, easy for you to say. We've poured all our strength, barely completing this seal. Now that success is in sight, retreating would be to waste all our efforts." Tian Annan said, flicking his sleeve, filled with resentment towards Ye Lanfeng, though he couldn't show it. Whether Ye Lanfeng's words were true or not, Tian Annan would never listen.
"Oh, you claim the beasts have set up a great array, and so it is? I could say they have one beneath our Holy Court, would you believe me?" Another elder, clearly siding with Tian Annan, spoke dismissively, unconvinced by Ye Lanfeng.
