"Yes!"
Deng Ziheng, Chen Qing, Huang Mei, and the others responded in unison.
Everyone understood that although the Demon Sect forces entrenched on Black Profound Island had been uprooted, this battle had caused the relationship between the Celestial Treasure Upper Sect and Yanzi Dock to completely deteriorate.
The undercurrents in the Thousand Reefs Sea Region had yet to subside.
Leaving Deng Ziheng, an expert of the True Essence Realm, to hold down the fort would both deter those itching to make a move and allow them to respond to any unexpected incidents.
Afterward, the group returned to the Celestial Treasure Upper Sect's stronghold in Dongji City for a short rest.
About the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, a disciple hurried to Huang Mei's side and whispered a report.
Upon hearing this, Huang Mei turned to Luo Zhixian and said respectfully, "Peak Master Luo, Elder Gu Sitong, the ancestor of the Gu Family, requests an audience."
