Popular science says oxygen is poisonous, and the whole internet scolds me for being sick

Neither the Fourth Elder nor the Fifth Elder possessed any fighting talent.

Instead, they tend to be more suited to support staff.

Just like the Third Elder, who now has no interest in extraordinary cultivation.

They only care about the brothel area within the Ghost Tiger tribe, which belongs to their own territory.

The Fourth Elder and the Fifth Elder were also managing their own areas.

However, compared to the Third Elder, their area was not as prosperous.

In terms of combat, neither of them had much experience with high-level battles.

Both of them were brought on as replacements.

Unlike the three elders, who had truly experienced the baptism of blood and fire during the tribal wars.

Of course, they couldn't tell just how strong Ye Zhen really was.

They felt that things like fighting and killing should be left to the subordinates.

Having already reached the elder level, why bother with all that hard work in cultivation?
Even if something really big happens, there's always a tall person to handle it, right?
The Fourth Elder was already secretly thinking about this vacant elder position.

How can I place my own people inside?

But when he heard that the Grand Elder actually wanted him to take action personally...

The Fourth Elder then realized that things seemed to be getting a little serious.

"You piece of bullshit, what do you know!" The Third Elder glared angrily. "That's a rare treasure, do you understand?"

Upon hearing the Third Elder insult him, the Fourth Elder retorted, "The Third Elder must have been wandering around in his belly, and his memory has deteriorated."

The Fourth Elder looked at the Third Elder with a mocking gaze.

It is widely known that the Third Elder often indulges in a life of extravagance and debauchery.

Therefore, among the five elders, the third elder was the one they looked down upon the most.

The Third Elder's current state of decline is, of course, due to his own reasons.

Above him, only the First Elder and the Second Elder were pressing him down.

However, all three of them came from the tribal wars of that time.

They knew each other inside and out, and there was even a sense of camaraderie between them.

The First Elder is the face of their Ghost Tiger Tribe, so naturally he cannot indulge in pleasures and neglect worldly affairs like the Third Elder.

The Second Elder, however, was a cultivation fanatic, single-mindedly pursuing extraordinary power.

Therefore, the Third Elder naturally became the freest and most powerful person.

Therefore, the most profitable area in the Ghost Tiger Tribe is managed by the Third Elder.

The people below have actually been tattling on each other all along.

Some of them genuinely disliked the Third Elder, while others were instigated by the Fourth and Fifth Elders.

They are both their people, and they also want a share of the pie from the Third Elder.

However, in the elder's view, no matter what, the profits of the Ghost Tiger tribe would ultimately belong to the tribe.

The Grand Elder didn't care at all whether any of his subordinates earned a little more or a little less.

No matter what, the meat will rot in the pot anyway.

Moreover, although the First Elder claims to be neutral, he is generally biased towards the Third Elder.

The Fifth Elder and the Fourth Elder were furious, but there was nothing they could do.

The Third Elder, his eyes red, cursed, "Even if I waste my days every day, I'm still no match for you fourth-tier cultivators who rose through crooked means!"

"If you're not convinced, let's have a fight!" Although the Third Elder and the Second Elder had always been mortal enemies, this was also the case on the surface.

But the Second Elder was not the goal that the Third Elder had always pursued.

Upon hearing the invitation to fight, the Fourth Elder immediately backed down.

Because he knew that if he were to fight, he would definitely not be a match for the Third Elder.

Even he knew that the Third Elder and the Second Elder were once equally renowned.

The two were evenly matched, locked in a fierce struggle. Everyone had witnessed the Second Elder's strength just now.

The elder was furious and slammed his hand on the table.

A clear handprint was left on the table, with even the fingerprints clearly visible.

"You want to fight, huh? Go and take care of that outsider."

"Whoever solves this problem will be the next Grand Elder." When the Grand Elder got angry, even the surrounding air seemed to freeze.

The other three people present immediately fell silent.

However, after hearing the elder's words, each of them had a gleam in their eyes.

It was as if the death of the Second Elder had swept away all the gloom that had shrouded them.

The position of the Grand Elder is practically unchallenged within the tribe.

In ancient times, it would be like that of an emperor.

Don't be fooled by the fact that everyone here is an elder; they actually make all sorts of decisions and such.

The Grand Elder makes all the decisions.

Now that they have the opportunity to sit in this position, how could they not be tempted?
If that's the case, the Fifth Elder immediately stepped forward.

"Elder, we are all serving the tribe."

"Where is there any talk of who contributed more or less?"

"I volunteer," the Fifth Elder said, patting his chest. "Elder, I'm so eager to improve myself."

The Fourth Elder looked at the Fifth Elder; the two were originally on the same side.

Because among the five elders, only two of them were promoted after the tribe became powerful.

But now that they saw the position of the Grand Elder, they both made a move at the same time.

"Elder, how can we trouble you to take action personally?" The Fourth Elder also stepped forward. "I can also share the tribe's worries."

The Fourth Elder and the Fifth Elder exchanged a glance.

The Third Elder watched coldly from the sidelines.

The elder seemed to be resting with his eyes closed, his fingers gently tapping the table.

"Good." The elder suddenly opened his eyes. "Since you two are both willing to dedicate yourselves to the tribe."

"I will send the two of you together to defeat that alien superhuman."

"This time, success is the only option; failure is not an option," the Grand Elder said in a deep voice.

This is tantamount to making a solemn pledge.

The two looked at each other again.

"But if that's the case, whose credit should it be?" the Fourth Elder asked.

The Fifth Elder also had this question.

"After you've dealt with the outsiders," the Grand Elder said calmly, "I will make my own judgment."

The Third Elder chuckled from the side, "So eager to claim credit? Wait until you've dealt with the extraordinary outsiders."

The Third Elder knew that this couldn't possibly be resolved so easily.

As for the Grand Elder offering his own position as a bargaining chip...

There must be such a reward for people to be willing to give their lives for it.

After all, for these elders, it was already the end of their road.

The Grand Elder originally intended to take action himself, but things turned out differently than he expected.

Instead, they let the fourth and fifth elders work together.

"There's no time to lose, you two should set off immediately," the elder urged the two of them.

After the Fourth Elder and the Fifth Elder left the Holy Temple...

"Fourth Elder, we must work together now," the Fifth Elder said with a grin, "to help our tribe solve its problems." (End of Chapter)
