"Qiang Li, what happened?"
Ma Deqing looked at Master Pangli's darkened expression and asked in a deep voice:
"Didn't you go to negotiate with the Patriarch of the Ling Family from the Changqing Continent? Did they agree?"
"I'm sorry, Sect Leader, the negotiations fell through!"
Master Pangli said in a low voice, then briefly recounted what had happened during his visit.
Ma Deqing frowned, his expression turning grim. The atmosphere in the hall instantly became cold and murderous.
"That Female Patriarch also has a Late Stage Golden Core Cultivation?"
He frowned and said, "Besides her, does this Ling Family of the Changqing Continent have any other Cultivators at the Golden Core or True Pill Level?"
"From what I saw with my own eyes, there were two other early-stage Golden Core Female Cultivators present. As for whether there are more Golden Core Powerhouses in hiding, I cannot be certain."
