章節 264: Ethical Dillemas

Outside the portal area, the atmosphere felt calmer than before since there were no soul beasts wandering around. It had been over an hour, making it no surprise that the area was busier with more people arriving.

Especially from various academies, sects, and even the imperial faction.

Prominent figures from various academies, sects, and even representatives from the imperial faction could be seen mingling.

Among the familiar faces were Long Gongyu, the esteemed elder of the Long family, and the elder from the Wudang sect. Notably, there were elders from the Heavenly Demon sect present as well.

Despite the historical animosity between the Wudang sect and the Heavenly Demon sect, an unusual scene unfolded where members from these two rival factions engaged in peaceful conversations. Long Gongyu's presence seemed to bridge the gap, acting as a mediator. His connections and understanding with both sects played a crucial role in this rare display of harmony.
