He was the most respected person in the room. Even within the six royal clans, the black tortoise clan held immense influence, surpassed only by the white tiger clan. Everyone regarded him as their leader.
The black tortoise clan's leader spoke up, "Enough of these trivial complaints."
A silence enveloped the meeting hall.
The grand elder of the white tiger clan then proposed, "I suggest we form an alliance with the three sects, as well as the Sacred Heart Sect."
All eyes turned to him. "Why would the three sects ally with us? The Sacred Heart Sect aside, haven't we seen enough of the humans' frailties over the years?"
The elder from the white tiger clan retorted with a cold smirk, "Didn't we exploit the divisions amongst the three sects when the eight royal clans ventured into Great You? If not, power would have been split evenly."
Whispers filled the room before a consensus was reached.
