What the man in front of him said caused Austin's heart to quiver. It was true that there were lots of martial enhancement materials in that place, and once the Bloodshed Clan disciples had them, they would never get it back.
However, he thought about it and said," There’s no need to worry. I’m sure many of the disciples from the Bloodshed Clan would die, and the disciples' belongings would land in the hands of those who entered the sacred grounds. On top of that, it's alright if this can kill quite a number of Bloodshed Clan disciples and allow those people to benefit from it.”
The middle-aged man in front of him also nodded after he heard this and said, "What you’ve said is right. How many days shall we wait?”
"At least another two or three days, perhaps? After all, if we go in too early, I'm afraid that the people of Pavilion Billow Cloud would leave late, too. If the people from the Pavilion Billow Cloud came later than that, we’d suffer a huge loss if we fight for a long period!" Austin thought about it before he finally said, "You people should continue observing what's happening in the forest. Report to me as soon as there is any news, do you understand?"
"Don't worry, First Fortress Master. We'll definitely report to you on time!" The middle-aged man gestured politely with his hands and quickly left.
At this moment, multiple bonfires were burning outside the forest. The elders and pavilion master of the Bloodshed Clan guarding outside the forest feasted on a delicious barbeque of monster beasts while drinking nice wine. It was evident that they enjoyed themselves.
"Daytime passed, just like that, and I'm sure they’ve had quite a handful of rewards. Haha! Those people have just entered this area recently, and there aren't many who are in the ultimate god level. This can be considered an experience for our disciples, and we, more importantly, can garner an impressive amount of precious items!" The First Elder of the Bloodshed Clan took a large sip of his wine and laughed loudly.
"Haha... The First Elder is right! The highlight of the day is that we made such a big commotion, and so many of us are guarding outside the forest. Surely, the Nine Armies must've heard something, yet they're hiding in their fortresses like tortoises. None of them dared come forward. Haha!" The Second Elder of the Bloodshed Clan chomped off a mouthful of monster beast meat he had in his hands, expression proud and haughty.
The Third Elder replied, "Haha! This means that the people of the Nine Armies understand themselves well. After all, their First Fortress Master is no match for our pavilion master. How can they fight against us when they don't have as many people in the ultimate god level as us? In the past, didn't they always swallow the insult when a few small altercations happened between us?"
The pavilion master of the Bloodshed Clan, Edward, had a smile on his face when he spoke in a serious manner, "You guys shouldn’t look down on the Nine Armies. We're much stronger than them, but no more than that. It's possible that they've not come forward to confront us because they don't know what we're doing to the people in the forest, don’t you think?"
The Fourth Elder nodded and said, “What the pavilion master said is correct—they probably haven't found out what’s happening here. After all, the people of the Nine Armies don’t always come and search for precious items here. They might have already searched for precious items and have been busy training recently, so they have no idea what’s happening in the forest."
"That’s impossible. With such a big commotion, they’ll definitely find out what happened the next day, even if they didn't realize it during the first day. We're some distance away, but the weather today is nice and the skies are clear. I'm sure their people will be able to discover that something is wrong over here when they stand on top of the high walls of their fortress, right? They must've seen something!" The First Elder shook his head and said, “I think the Nine Armies don’t dare come out because they're afraid of us or they're pretending that they didn't see anything, seeing as playing the clueless card will save them the hassle."
