Chen Xiaojun's voice was like an ice bead falling to the ground: "With the foundation of a top-tier power like the Haotian Sect (a reserve of elite Soul Douluos of the same level) and their fierce tradition of cooperation... would it be difficult to form several groups? Or even a dozen groups? Such a 'Double Hammer Soul Douluo' combination...?"

A dozen or so groups?
Each group possesses terrifying destructive power comparable to a Title Douluo.

The air in the side hall of the ancestral hall seemed to freeze.

Everyone, even seasoned veterans like Chen Xun and Chen Hong, felt a chill creep up their backs, instantly spreading across their entire spines, making their hair stand on end!

This is hardly a problem involving "one or two people".

This is simply a revolutionary, top-tier fighting force capable of sweeping away any regional adversary.

A single Title Douluo is enough to guard a region, but a group of well-coordinated, complementary martial arts masters who can unleash power several times greater than a single individual... that power is enough to crush any existing balance.

Chen Xiaojun's voice, carrying a cold, realistic analysis, continued to echo in the fearful silence: "This force, while still inferior to us, doesn't face the entire continent like we do..."

These words sent a chill down Xue Shiqiong's spine: "Not even as good as the Chen family?!"

Chen Xiaojun pointed to the area that Chen Zhang had drawn on the map earlier: "If the Haotian Sect's goal is merely the central and western regions, wouldn't that be enough to establish its dominance over the world?"

"Just imagine, if the Clear Sky Sect possessed the combined power of these dozen or so 'Double Hammer Soul Douluos,' coupled with their massive number of Soul Masters (at least several thousand directly subordinate and peripheral members), they could completely eliminate dissidents and achieve 'unrivaled supremacy'..."

"At that time, our Chen family will be completely and cleanly driven out of the entire Midwest, and may even spread and threaten our layout space throughout the Central District."

"Don't doubt its possibility." Chen Xiaojun said decisively, throwing the harsh reality at everyone. "This is not determined by the will of any one person; it is driven by naked power and interests."

"Don't forget how much their arrogant and fierce generals and their vast vassal forces will expand and grow once they have the opportunity to control the Midwest?"

"They crave territory, resources, and absolute hegemony."

"This bottom-up surge is enough to drive any leader to make the most radical choices."

"The Haotian Sect will inevitably embark on a bloody path of full-scale expansion and elimination of dissidents."

"And we, the Chen family, who blocked this piece of the pie, are their primary thorn in their side."

“At that time,” Chen Xiaojun’s voice was low, but every word was like a knife, “the various worries and fears of our elders will not just be risks, but an inevitable and devastating blow.”

“We will lose our strategic foothold, our living space will be compressed, all our past investments will be lost, and our future development will be hindered at every turn.”

"All of this is a hundred times, a thousand times more terrifying than the price we might pay for risking intervention today!"

Chen Xiaojun concluded decisively, "Intervention may be risky, but there is still a way out! Sitting idly by and watching will surely lead to a dead end."

Fear, lingering dread, and the chilling feeling of being forced to recognize the other party's potential threat swept over everyone present like an icy tide.

What Chen Xiaojun depicts is not just a powerful enemy, but a war behemoth that will inevitably expand and crush everything after obtaining the terrifying key.

Allowing the Xuanhuang Tang family to be completely absorbed by the Haotian Sect is tantamount to personally feeding this behemoth and equipping it with the sharpest claws and teeth.

This vision of the future is far more brutal than any of the current difficulties.

Chen Xun and Chen Hong's gazes met silently in the air, passing over the crowd.

His deep eyes held a mixture of solemnity and sharpness, as if he were standing on the edge of an abyss or facing a treacherous peak.

The hall was deathly silent, save for the heavy breathing of the crowd. The scene depicted by Chen Xiaojun had forced them to reassess everything.

……

The clear sound of Xia Qingyun setting down the wine pot stood out sharply amidst the stillness.

"alright,"

Her voice was calm and even, "You've said enough. Go outside for some fresh air, relax, and clear your heads. Xiaojun, stay here."

Her words were like pebbles breaking through the ice.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if they had been granted a pardon, and their tense nerves relaxed slightly.

They stood up and their footsteps hurried as they left the oppressive side hall.

Soon, only Xia Qingyun, Chen Xun, Chen Hong, and Chen Xiaojun, the grandfather and grandson, remained in the room.

Xia Qingyun's gaze fell on Chen Xiaojun, calm yet carrying an all-knowing power.

“Now, my dear grandson,” she began slowly, “tell me your real reason.”

Chen Xiaojun blinked, feigning innocence: "Grandma, aren't my reasons sufficient?"

“You little rascal,” Xia Qingyun shook her head slightly, but there was no reproach in her eyes. “Playing word games with me won’t work.”

"Explain these points to me clearly."

She held up a finger: "First, what makes you so sure that top-level techniques like 'ring explosion' and 'nuclear explosion,' which even the Haotian Sect considers secrets, are so-called 'universal profound techniques'?"

Then came the second finger: "Secondly, the Haotian Sect and the Xuanhuang Tang Family have been separated for hundreds of years. How many years of enmity and estrangement have accumulated? How can the chasms in people's hearts be filled so easily?"

"You expect them to put aside their differences and cooperate seamlessly, even fusing their soul skills, in a short time? Do you really think it's that easy?"

She looked into Chen Xiaojun's eyes and questioned him clearly and logically: "Okay, even if we take a step back and assume that Haotian Sect really did annex the Xuanhuang Tang family, they would have already digested it."

"Based on the exaggerated power you described, the Haotian Sect is at most at the threshold of a super power."

She paused, her tone carrying a sense of control over the overall situation, "The Haotian Sect may be formidable, but it's not enough to make you so wary."

"Given the size of the three major families, suppressing a sect like the Clear Sky Sect is not impossible, and it might even be easier than imagined (such as the alliance with Seagod Island and Soul City), not to mention the rapid development in the future."

Her eyes flickered slightly as she finished her sentence: "So, you're using this reason to convince us to make such a heavy bet on Lancashire?"

Then, her tone became slightly more forceful, "Are you going to keep hiding it from me?"

As Xia Qingyun meticulously analyzed the situation, Chen Xun and Chen Hong's gazes became even more focused and sharp, locking onto Chen Xiaojun's face as if they were physical objects.

Chen Xiaojun forced a smile and waved his hands repeatedly: "Grandma, how could I? How could I dare to play tricks on you?"

Chen Hong, who had been silent all along, spoke up in a deep voice: "Speak, Xiao Jun, tell us what you really think."

Chen Xiaojun's smile faded.
