127: Chapter 127 The Golden Dragon Clan's Counterattack

For a moment, the atmosphere in the great hall was tense, and everyone was filled with righteous indignation.

However, some Elders also put forward different views.

"I think we should be more careful. After all, even the Clan Chief is unable to deal with the means the opponent used on the Young Clan Chief," a relatively composed Elder said, frowning.

His words caused the Elders to fall into deep thought; they realized that the matter might not be as simple as it appeared on the surface.

At this moment, an Elder stood up with a look of worry on his face: "We need to deliberate carefully and must not act rashly. Since the opponent has the ability to break the Restriction, it suggests that he is likely targeting our Dragon Clan, or perhaps there is another force supporting him from behind. If we act recklessly, we might fall into the opponent's trap."

This Elder's words resonated with the others, and they began to think calmly.

Finally, after some discussion, they decided to first dispatch an envoy to the Azure Divine Domain to investigate the situation and contact local forces to obtain more information.

At the same time, they would strengthen security within the Dragon Clan to prevent similar incidents from happening again.

After making the decision, Long Batian's mood calmed slightly, but the worry in his heart grew even deeper; he was afraid that Long Yan would not be able to hold on.

In the days that followed, the high-ranking members of the Golden Divine Dragon Clan waited in the great hall for news.

A tense atmosphere permeated the entire Dragon Clan.

The clansmen were also waiting for the news brought back by the envoy, hoping to uncover the truth and find the culprit who harmed the Young Clan Chief as soon as possible.

Three days later.

The envoy to the Azure Divine Domain returned, but the news he brought was disappointing.

The strongest force in the Azure Divine Domain stated that they were unaware of this matter.

If the Dragon Clan wanted to find the culprit, they would not stop the Dragon Clan from acting within the Azure Divine Domain, provided that it did not excessively affect them.

Upon hearing this news, the Elders began another heated discussion, and the hall was filled with a tense atmosphere.

After some intense debate, the Elders gradually calmed down and began to think of countermeasures.

At this moment, Long Batian broke the silence, turned his head to look at the brawny man sitting at the head of the left side, and asked: "Grand Elder, do you have any thoughts?"

His gaze was sharp, as if he were expecting a powerful response from this brawny man.

The brawny man known as the Grand Elder was burly and muscular, with a look of determination and decisiveness on his face.

He gazed at Long Batian and replied with firm eyes: "Clan Chief, I believe we should take strong counter-measures. We cannot retreat just because the opponent is also at the God Emperor Peak. After all, Baichuan Holy Academy has always refrained from interfering in the disputes between major forces, so there is no need to worry about them intervening in this matter."

His voice was low and powerful, revealing a sense of resolute determination.

Long Batian nodded slightly in agreement and added: "The Grand Elder is right. Since the opponent dares to provoke us, we must make them pay the price!"

His tone revealed a hint of coldness and ruthlessness.

Then, he turned to the other Elders and continued to ask: "Does anyone else have any other opinions?"

At this time, another Elder stood up to speak: "Clan Chief, I agree with the Grand Elder's point of view. We cannot show weakness; we must demonstrate our majesty and power. But at the same time, we must act cautiously to avoid causing greater trouble. After all, the situation is complex now, and we need to weigh the pros and cons."

His words emphasized a firm stance for a counterattack while reminding everyone to pay attention to strategy and consequences.

Long Batian listened to his words, pondered for a moment, and said: "Hmm, what you say makes sense. We must strike the enemy with the force of thunder, but we must also consider the possible chain reactions. We need to be fully prepared to ensure everything is foolproof."

His eyes flashed with a wise light, and it was clear that he had already begun planning the next move in his mind.

The atmosphere in the hall became tense, and everyone realized the severity of this incident.

Long Batian stood up, his hands behind his back, and announced: "Good, then it is decided! Long Wentian, you take people to investigate this matter immediately. Once the identity of the culprit is confirmed, we will launch a retaliatory operation!"

His voice was like thunder, shaking everyone's heart.

Subsequently, Long Batian once again urged the Elders: "Remember, you must act carefully and not let the enemy detect our plan. Everything must proceed according to the plan, and there must be no mistakes whatsoever!"

His gaze swept across the room, as if he could see through everyone's thoughts.

Finally, he waved his hand to signal the end of the meeting, and the Elders left one after another to carry out their tasks.

Only the Grand Elder and the High Priest remained in the great hall.

He turned his head again to look at the old man on the right and said: "High Priest, do you have any good suggestions?"

The old man pondered for a moment and said: "I also agree with the Grand Elder's view, but we should make additional preparations. After all, the opponent's strength is not weak; even if we send out a God Emperor at the Peak, we may not be able to find them. We can use the golden dragon bead in the clan to ask Vice Dean Qiu Tianji of Baichuan Holy Academy to calculate the specific location of the opponent. After all, Yan'er is the hope of the clan and cannot afford any mishaps!"

"Good, the High Priest is truly the strategist of our clan. Although the golden dragon bead is precious, we have already obtained the Legacy within it, so it is fine to give it away," Long Batian said appreciatively.

Long Batian thought for a moment and said: "Wentian and the others can only attract the enemy's attention and surely won't be able to find the person behind this. This time, we have to rely on ourselves. The Grand Elder and I will go to the Azure Divine Domain in secret to find the person behind this."

"Three days later, if we haven't found them, we will notify you. By then, High Priest, you will take the golden dragon bead to Baichuan Holy Academy and ask Vice Dean Qiu Tianji to calculate the opponent's location."

The High Priest nodded.
