Chapter 751: The Factions Respond, Seven Days Later

The next day, Wuji Manor spread the two announcements across much of the Southern Region. The region was too vast to send them everywhere, and people farther away would have no idea what the dispute was about anyway.

Holding the banquet at Wuji Division was more convenient. If Taiyi Realm elders came as guests, the Minotaurs would find their entry troublesome. At Wuji Manor, that problem disappeared.

The banquet was scheduled for seven days later, and the declaration of war against Tianluo Manor was also made public, likewise set for seven days later.

Other forces believed Qin Xiao’s choice of this timing was clearly deliberate, likely to gauge the attitudes of various parties at the banquet or to get everyone to take sides.

Meanwhile, Qin Xiao himself had already returned to Seven Stars Tower with Qin Ling.

The craftsmen from Seven Stars Tower had long been sent back, as the tower was already completed. As for the Hu sisters, they remained at Seven Stars Tower.

This was also Hu Li’s deliberate move. Since even Wuji Manor had pledged allegiance to Seven Stars Tower, the two sisters were in the same position wherever they were. They still needed to get closer to Qin Xiao; the Hu family’s hope lay with Qin Xiao.

Qin Xiao had spared the Wuji Manor cultivators partly out of regard for Hu Li. He had learned that Huang Ji, Wuji Manor’s Manor Lord, backed the Hu family, and so had offered them surrender and incorporation.

Except for Tian Shu, all Seven Stars Envoys had reached the ninth grade of the Heavenly Immortal Realm. They were now jointly attempting a breakthrough. If successful, all Seven Stars Envoys would reach the Golden Immortal Realm, and their combined strength would be capable of confronting the Taiyi Realm.

With nothing else to do, the Hu sisters followed Shui Bowen to tinker with formations. The reason the two sisters didn’t return home was because Hu Li permitted it. Surprisingly, Shui Bowen also didn’t return to the black market and stayed at Seven Stars Tower. Naturally, Qin Xiao wouldn’t drive him away.

Meng Sanqian and Li Feifei still hadn’t emerged, which puzzled Qin Xiao somewhat. Was the breakthrough really that difficult?
