The Hall of Youth, as the name suggested, was a hall for young people.
It seemed that the old guys at the Demon-slaying Hall had run out of ideas. They had to make every possible effort so they gathered the young people together for a discussion.
Of course!
Young people were easily impatient. The atmosphere in the city was so depressing.
If the young people did not find something to do, something could go wrong. The Demon-slaying Hall must have considered this.
Anyways, Ji Mengtian's abilities were acknowledged by the old guys.
Patriarch Li's name was Li Shang. He was a patriarch with great power at the Demon-slaying Hall, second only to Patriarch of Law Enforcement.
It was said that Patriarch Li was lecherous …
Yang Xuan and Xiao Conglong looked at each other, their eyes revealing a hint of worry and bewilderment.
Was Ji Mengtian trying to trade her body for a position as a patriarch?
On this thought, Yang Xuan and Xiao Conglong pulled a long face. Ji Mengtian was their goddess. If she was stolen by an old warrior, they would feel as disgusted as swallowing flies.
Ji Mengtian glanced at the two of them as if she had seen through their dirty thoughts.
She casually waved her sleeve, revealing a piece of jade with a red dot on it.
"Virginity Sand ~"
Yang Xuan and Xiao Conglong's eyes glowed. Smiles bloomed on their faces. They were in a good mood.
Ji Mengtian glanced at them coldly and said, "Go and gather all the young masters and young ladies in the city. Gather all the young masters and young ladies from families above the sixth rank. Um … don't call those that are close to Lu Li."
"Alright ~"
Yang Xuan and the others knew they could not come to any conclusion but it was pointless.
They had to find something to do. They were willing to be ordered around by Ji Mengtian.
Yang Xuan and Xiao Conglong sent out some young masters and young ladies to invite people around with their invitations.
Yang Xuan had enough influence. In an hour, nearly 100 people had come to the yard.
Ji Mengtian didn't invite them to a banquet. Instead, she went to a secret underground hall in the yard.
The secret hall was not spacious. It was a bit crowded with nearly 100 people. Only a few of them could sit together.
There were no delicacies, no musical instruments. Fortunately, Ji Mengtian and the other beauties were a feast for the eyes.
With so many people gathered together, everyone had been bored to the point of going crazy recently. It was rare for them to be excited.
Ji Mengtian sat at the head of the table and glanced at everyone. After a while, she said, "Liu Zhangfeng, Tian Bao, Gu Yue … The 27 of you can leave now."
The 27 people who were called out were confused and angry. What did Ji Mengtian mean?
You can summon them at your beck and call?
Did they think they were slaves?
"Hmm?"
Seeing that many people did not move, Ji Mengtian's pretty face turned cold, and a murderous aura surged from her body.
The twenty-seven people who were called out immediately kept quiet out of fear and hurriedly got up and left.
After they left, Ji Mengtian activated the Inhibition Formation in the Dark Hall and said, "Lu Li and I are mortal enemies. The families of the 27 are related to Lu Li, more or less. Therefore, I asked them to leave.
Anyone here … if you want to side with Lu Li, you can leave now. When the meeting starts, you won't be able to leave even if you want to. "
Swish swish swish ~
Many people felt uncomfortable. Was Ji Mengtian doing this to deal with Lu Li?
Not even the Samsara Palace and Deputy Master could defeat Lu Li. How could she not give up?
Thinking of Lu Li's means and the forces he had, many people felt uneasy.
Lu Li was at the Demon-slaying City. If he knew that they were discussing with Ji Mengtian about how to deal with him, would their families be implicated?
"Lady Ji, I am sorry!"
Some young masters and young ladies left at once. Ji Mengtian had a death wish, but they did not want to die with her.
Ji Mengtian did not ask them to stay. She watched them leave indifferently.
The Dark Hall was already crowded but now it was empty. At least half of the people had left, leaving less than 40 people. Most of them were young masters and young ladies from forces affiliated to the five major families.
"Good!"
Ji Mengtian ordered the Inhibition Formation to be activated. She glanced over the hall and said, "Those who are staying are all loyal and brave. When we finish this, I believe your families will rise up soon and you will benefit greatly. I promise on behalf of the Master of Hall of Youth."
The young masters and young ladies sitting down were anxious. However, their families had been marked by the five major families and it would be difficult to erase the stigma.
Even if they went to Lu Li's side, Lu Li would not even spare them a glance …
One young lady was worried. She stood up and said, "Lady Mengtian, the human race is in danger. I think we should figure out a way to solve the crisis. Internal strife … can wait."
"Ha, ha ~"
Ji Mengtian smiled and said, "I am not a person who has no sense of propriety.
This discussion is for the safety of the human race. If we can do this, we will be heroes that save the human race. Our names will go down in history. Your families will prosper because of this. "
"Really?"
They were excited. They looked at Ji Mengtian nervously. She continued after a pause, "According to reliable information — the Asmodian Lord wants the Wicked Bead in Lu Li's hands very much. He has been calling on the four alien races to attack the four cities just to get the Wicked Bead.
Therefore … if we can get the Wicked Bead, we will have a chance to reach an agreement with the Asmodian Lord. He will retreat and the four alien races will not attack us for ten thousand years. We will have a chance to take our time. "
"Um …"
Everyone was moved. People in the Dark Hall began to discuss. If they could reach an agreement with the Asmodian Lord, they would go down in history as heroes of the human race.
However, no one present was an idiot. Someone immediately asked, "Miss Ji, how did you get this reliable information?"
How could anyone know what the Asmodian Lord was thinking?
Who was qualified to meet the Asmodian Lord, the leader of the alien races?
They would be killed before they could even get close to the Asmodian Lord.
Ji Mengtian did not hide anything. She put it plainly, "You all know that there are moles among the four alien races, right?
We, the Samsara Palace, have moles among the Asmodians. They are sons of higher-ups and they are soul slaves. They are absolutely loyal. The information came from the Asmodians. "
"Yes!"
Some nodded. Yang Xuan and the others were sure of this. The Hades Society had moles among the four alien races as well.
It was unavoidable that the four alien races had moles among the human race.
For example, in the small battlefield, some humans were captured, taken in as soul slaves by the alien races and released secretly. Without careful screening, no one would know.
But someone else raised a question, "Lady Ji, what if the Asmodian Lord still wants to attack the city after we give up the Wicked Bead?
They can tear up the agreement. "
"That is okay ~"
Ji Mengtian continued with assurance, "We humans believe in Emperor of Heaven Reverse and so do the Asmodians. They believe in Emperor of Asmodian.
As long as we reach an agreement, we can have the Asmodian Lord swear in the name of Emperor of Asmodian that he will not betray us. Do we humans have the courage to break the blood oath? "
Of course not. Emperor of Heaven Reverse was not an immortal. He was an immortal.
Who would have the courage to swear in the name of Emperor of Heaven Reverse and then betray it?
What if Emperor of Heaven Reverse would punish them and kill them?
"The question is … how can we get the Wicked Bead?"
A weak voice came. It was a young lady's question. As soon as she finished her words, everyone quieted down.
Many people were so excited that they seemed to be on steroids. But now, they all became listless.
They seemed to have forgotten the most important question. How could they get the Wicked Bead?
If they could get the Wicked Bead, Deputy Master would have killed Lu Li a long time ago. They wouldn't have to waste their time here …
"That is why I have gathered you here!"
