The leaders of other advanced spiritual race clans who owned the spiritual treasures also nodded their
heads in unison. All of them firmly believed that if they took out their spiritual treasures, the other
spiritual race clans would do whatever it took to get their hands on them.
"Where there's a will, there is a way. Although I know that you all have your own considerations, I hope
you can think things through for the sake of the Wild Spirit Land and the spiritual race's future.
Otherwise, if the calamity beasts continue to harm us like this, the spiritual race will suffer a lot sooner
or later," Townsend said slowly.
As soon as they heard Townsend's words, the other leaders started to whisper and exchange thoughts
with one another. However, most of them just wanted to join in the fun and excitement. After all, some
of them didn't have any spiritual treasure in their hands, so they didn't have to worry about anything.
"But Patriarch Townsend, even if we are willing to take out the spiritual treasures and use them to deal
with the calamity beasts, how sure are you that we can defeat the beasts? What if we can't suppress
them? What if all our efforts are in vain?" the patriarch of the Giants Clan immediately clarified.
"I know what's on your mind. But if you follow my plan, I'm sure that you have nothing to worry about,"
Townsend promised with utmost confidence.
"So, what's your plan then, Patriarch Townsend? Tell us in detail. We'd like to hear it," the patriarch of
the Wood Clan inquired.
"My plan is to form a powerful spiritual race army to break down the nine calamity beasts one by one.
After studying and observing those beasts thoroughly, I have found out a way on how we can deal with
their weaknesses. First, we will use their weaknesses against them to restrain their power. After that,
we will use the power of the nine spiritual treasures to deal with them. We have the overwhelming
advantage in the number of fighters that we have. With that being said, we can cause them serious
injuries. After that, it will be easy for us to take advantage of that opportunity and seal them. I assure
you that this plan is foolproof and absolutely safe! So what do you think?" Townsend asked after briefly
explaining his plan to those present.
Soon after, the other leaders turned to each other and started to discuss what they thought about the
plan. Of course, they had varying opinions about it—some agreed, while others objected.
"If that's the case, then perhaps, we can think about it further," Jill said. At that time, she had put aside
their clan's feud with the Heavenly Demon Clan. She believed that Townsend's plan was well-thought-
out.
"Then I'll take it as your consent, Matriarch Jill. What about patriarchs from the Wood Clan, the Ghost
Master Clan, and the Giants Clan?" Townsend asked as he looked at the three patriarchs for their
input.
Meanwhile, the three patriarchs looked at each other in the eye as if they were coming into terms with a
unifying answer. Then, after careful consideration, they all nodded their heads in agreement.
"Oh, right. I have one more question. Ever since the emergence of the spiritual treasure of the Butterfly
Divine Clan, we have not yet found which spiritual race clan owns it now. If we do not get the Butterfly
Divine Clan's spiritual treasure, these nine spiritual treasures wouldn't be able to gather together,
right?" the patriarch of the Ghost Master Clan wondered.
"You don't have to worry about that. I have also invited a representative from the spiritual race clan who
currently possesses the spiritual treasure of the Butterfly Divine Clan. However, the representative
hasn't arrived yet," Townsend said as he turned to look at Rocky.
When Rocky saw Townsend's eyes looking straight at him, he could not help but narrow his eyes
slightly. In fact, Rocky did not expect that Townsend knew that the spiritual treasure of the Butterfly
Divine Clan was in Cherry's hand at the moment.
"Is it true that the whereabouts of the Dragon Master Clan's spiritual treasure is also unknown as of
now? It seems that the Dragon Master Clan has vanished along with the spiritual treasure. And
besides, here appears to be a human who doesn't share the same faith with us. Now, I am starting to
wonder if he will ever be willing to give us the spiritual treasure in his hand." At that point, some
patriarch turned to look at Rocky maliciously as if he had something to do with it. However, Rocky
seemed unbothered by it. He had nothing but a poker face as he sat comfortably beside Marcia.
Not long after, he was under the watchful eyes of everyone in the hall.
"Now that the human beings in the Wild Spirit Land have suffered from the harm of the calamity beasts,
our Holy Dragon Empire is no exception to this chaos. Therefore, I will take out the spiritual treasure if
deemed necessary," Rocky replied in a very calm tone.
"Should you change your mind, all the spiritual race clans will suffer. I think you'd better hand over the
spiritual treasure in your hands and let Patriarch Townsend keep them so that all of us can be rest
assured," another patriarch urged.
On the other hand, the rest patriarchs followed suit and nodded.
"I'm sorry, but I can't do what you're asking of me," Rocky sneered. Obviously, the Heavenly Demon
Clan was setting him up so that he could hand over the spiritual treasure of the Water Master Clan
without any choice.
The patriarch who had spoken before banged his fist on the table and shouted angrily, "You are nothing
but a mere human. How could you be so arrogant in front of us? How dare you ignore the spiritual
race?"
"If there's nothing else you need from us, we'll leave now." Rocky gave him a quick emotionless glance
and ignored his raging voice. Soon after, he gave Marcia a nod, signaling that they should leave.
"Hand over the spiritual treasure, or you won't be able to get out of here alive!" that patriarch
threatened. In that instant, he seemed to be determined to make things more difficult than they already
were for Rocky. In the blink of an eye, he stood in front of him, ready to stop him from leaving.
Marcia saw this and immediately rushed to Rocky's side to protect him. Suddenly, she turned to
Townsend and said, "Patriarch Townsend, is this your way of entertaining your guests?"
"The patriarch's worries are reasonable. Moreover, this spiritual treasure is worthless in your hands,
Prince Crimson. If you are willing to give it out so generously, then we will be very grateful," Townsend
said seriously as he raised his brows.
"No matter what you do, I refuse to give it to you. In addition, if you do want to gather the nine spiritual
treasures to deal with the calamity beasts, then I strongly advice you not to provoke me. Otherwise,
you will suffer the consequences!" Rocky said with a cold look on his face. He felt those people might
think of him as a weak cat that could be bullied if he did not show his true strength.
"You audacious bastard! You just got a spiritual treasure by luck, didn't you? We may still make it
without this one..." that patriarch said aggressively as his face fumed with rage.
"Only this one, huh? Who said that I only have one spiritual treasure in my hands?" Rocky taunted.
The faces of all the patriarchs changed upon hearing his words.
"Just so you know, the spiritual treasure of the Dragon Master Clan is also in his hand. I suggest that
you have to think things over," Marcia said coldly.
Her words shocked all the clan leaders around. Never had they expected that the spiritual treasure that
should belong to the Dragon Master Clan would be in the hands of Rocky.
"I think Patriarch Townsend knows very well how many spiritual treasures I have! But, it seems that he
never planned to tell you. Perhaps he has other plans..." Rocky said in a mocking voice.
All the other leaders' eyes fell on Townsend. His face also twitched in anxiety as he could not hide the
fact that he knew that the Dragon Master Clan's spiritual treasure was also in Rocky's hand.
"Even though you have two spiritual treasures, so what? Without the two, we can still deal with the
calamity beasts..." that patriarch still insisted with all his might.
"No. In fact, he has three. The spiritual treasure of our Butterfly Divine Clan can also be considered to
be in Prince Crimson's hand." A delicate voice suddenly rang out as a feminine figure walked in from
outside the hall. Everyone's eyes were wide open as they wanted to see who was behind such an
enthralling voice full of momentum.
