After cultivating immortality for a hundred years, the predecessor has become the daughter of destin

The common enemy that Xia Wuyou mentioned was naturally not difficult for the girls to understand.

Both the demon clan and the monster clan have faced the same huge threat in recent years.

That is the gradually awakening dragon clan, which began to emerge from the four seas and move towards the entire continent, and even had conflicts with various parties.

And just as Xia Wuyou said, the reason why everyone gathered together at this time was because of the appearance of the dragon clan.

But even though they understood this, the women were still dissatisfied.

Qiu Ninglu was the first to sneer, her eyes full of disdain, "Common enemy? Humph, that sounds good. Who knows if there is any conspiracy behind this? Don't let us work hard for the so-called common goal, only to end up benefiting some people."

As she spoke, she glanced at Xia Wuyou intentionally or unintentionally, her eyes full of doubt.

Murong Jianqi was not to be outdone, her eyes shot towards Qiu Ninglu like a sharp blade.

"Master Qiu, please don't be so sarcastic. We are facing a powerful enemy now. If you still care about your personal gains and losses, it would be too narrow-minded."

Qiu Ninglu naturally would not be afraid of the other party, and immediately retorted: "Miss Murong, as a member of the human race, you must know that those who are not of my race must have different hearts..."

Hearing this, Kong Zhaoling couldn't help but speak. She frowned slightly, with a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone, "Master Qiu, this is a bit too much. We are all sitting here for the sake of the people of the world. It's not good to make groundless speculations."

Shangguan Liushuang smiled and said, "Humph, what do you mean by the people of the world? It's just for your own benefit. Instead of arguing here, I think you should first make your conditions and bottom lines clear to avoid disputes later."

Chen Rongyue had been silent the whole time, but she finally spoke at this moment. Her voice was calm but carried unquestionable majesty: "Everyone, since we are all here, we should put the overall situation first. If we fall apart because of some meaningless conflicts, that would be truly irresponsible to ourselves."

However, Qiu Ninglu didn't buy her words. She turned her eyes to Gu Cheng and asked in a deep voice: "Gu Cheng, tell me, what is your intention in gathering us all here? You have a close relationship with Her Majesty the Queen, have you discussed something in advance?"

Gu Cheng felt helpless and was also troubled by this sudden questioning.

After pondering for a moment, Gu Cheng knew that he could not let these women continue like this.

However, just as he was about to speak, Xia Wuyou spoke first: "Master Qiu, Gu Cheng is just an opportunity for us to get together. I activated the Ten Absolute Formations only to eliminate the spies within, and I have no other intentions. As for cooperation, we naturally have to be honest with each other and discuss together."

Kong Zhaoling couldn't help but interrupt again, "That being said, we demons have never been bound by rules. If we cooperate, we can't be restricted too much."

Shangguan Liushuang sneered, "Do you, the demon race, still want to reap the greatest benefits from the cooperation, but don't want to bear the corresponding responsibilities?"

For a while, the conflicts between the women continued to escalate, and the atmosphere in the hall was so tense that it seemed like it was about to explode. The tense atmosphere was so overwhelming that people could not breathe.
Gu Cheng was caught in the middle, wanting to calm the dispute, but for a moment he didn't know where to start. Obviously, before facing the real big thing, these women all had their own ideas.

Looking at the tense atmosphere between the women, Gu Cheng sighed inwardly, knowing that if he didn't stop it in time, this cooperation would probably fail before it even started.

He took a deep breath and took a step forward. A powerful pressure suddenly emanated from his body. The pressure spread out like a substance, causing the women who were originally arguing fiercely to feel a chill in their hearts and their voices suddenly stopped.

Gu Cheng looked at everyone seriously and said slowly: "Enough! Now that the dragon clan has appeared in the world and the enemy is at hand, you are all arguing over some meaningless suspicions and interests. Have you forgotten how powerful our common enemy is? If we can't unite as one, how can we fight against the invasion of the dragon clan?"

Qiu Ninglu opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but when she met Gu Cheng's stern gaze, she swallowed her words back. Kong Zhaoling also lowered his head slightly, with a trace of shame on his face.

Seeing that everyone had quieted down, Gu Cheng softened his tone a little: "I know that there are grievances and differences among you, and you all have your own considerations. But this crisis cannot be dealt with by one person or one force alone. Only if we work together can we have a glimmer of hope."

Chen Rongyue nodded slightly and said softly: "Gu Cheng is right, we really shouldn't waste our energy on each other anymore. I am willing to put aside my prejudices and cooperate with everyone honestly on behalf of the Tianjian Sect."

Murong Jianqiu also said: "I am the same. For the sake of the people of the world, we can put aside the past grudges for the time being."

Kong Zhaoling gritted his teeth and said, "Although we, the demon race, yearn for freedom, we are not unreasonable people. As long as the conditions for cooperation are reasonable, we are willing to follow the arrangements."

Shangguan Liushuang snorted and said, "Forget it, I don't want to waste time on this meaningless quarrel. Let's cooperate, but let me be frank. If anyone dares to play tricks, I, Shangguan Liushuang, will not let him off easily."

Qiu Ninglu was silent for a moment, and finally said: "Okay, for Gu Cheng's sake, I will put aside my doubts for the time being. But if someone betrays me or makes trouble, I will not let them go."

Seeing that everyone's attitude had finally softened, Xia Wuyou secretly breathed a sigh of relief and showed a relieved smile on his face: "It's great that everyone thinks so. Since we have decided to cooperate, let's be honest with each other and discuss the next plan together. I will first share with you the intelligence I have about the enemy."

As he spoke, Xia Wuyou waved his sleeves lightly, and a huge map appeared in front of everyone, which listed in detail the distribution of power of the four sea dragon tribes, their approximate strength, and several key action trajectories.

Everyone gathered together and carefully looked at the information marked with red lines on the map. The tension and confrontation just now gradually dissipated, and was replaced by a solemnity and focus on working towards a common goal.

Gu Cheng looked at the women in front of him who had finally calmed down, and his heart was filled with emotion.

Xia Wuyou glanced in the direction of Gu Cheng and finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Gu Cheng still held a very important position in these people's hearts.

Otherwise, I would not have the opportunity to facilitate cooperation between these mutually hostile forces this time. (End of this chapter)
