"What they do is their business. It does not mean that our Li Heavenly Clan should act the same way," the old man said.
"Hmph, you truly are soft-hearted." The old woman was very displeased. She then turned to the juniors and said, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and go in!"
"Hold on. Did I give you permission to enter?" But as soon as the old woman finished speaking, the old man spoke again.
"What exactly do you want?!" The old woman actually flew into a rage at this moment, shouting furiously at the old man.
"Even if the Chu Heavenly Clan's juniors enter and destroy the main formation, they will only be able to slow down the opening of the Upper Realm Gate. They cannot close it. The connection between the two worlds is already a foregone conclusion — no one can change that."
"Therefore, letting them go in is nothing but a redundant move."
"Furthermore, whether or not we campaign against the Great Thousand Upper Realm is a decision for the Clan Chief to make. You have no right to decide this," the old man said.
"And if we miss the opportunity to attack the Great Thousand Upper Realm, can you bear the responsibility for that?" the old woman asked.
"I can bear it," the old man said.
"Bear my ass."
The old woman actually cursed out loud — it seemed she was truly infuriated by the old man.
She then turned back to the eight juniors and said, "I told you to go in and stop the Chu Heavenly Clan's juniors from destroying the main formation of the Upper Realm Gate. Did you not hear me?"
"Er..." At that moment, the eight juniors looked at the old man, their faces showing expressions of difficulty.
After all, both of these two were Supreme Elders — figures neither of them wished to offend.
"Let us not make things difficult for the children. Since neither of us can settle this matter, why don't we have all the elders vote on it?"
"Those who agree to enter, take one step forward. The minority will yield to the majority." The old man, seemingly unwilling to put the juniors in a difficult position, came up with this compromise.
As soon as he said this, among the elders kneeling behind them, a full ninety percent took one step forward.
Only a mere ten percent felt they should not enter the Upper Realm Gate.
"Haha! Now what do you have to say for yourself?" Seeing this, the old woman was immediately overjoyed.
The old man, however, wore a displeased expression and sighed helplessly, "You lot are truly foolish."
"Supreme Elder, if we encounter the Chu Heavenly Clan's juniors, what should we do?"
At this moment, the strongest among the eight juniors — a male — asked the old woman.
"With the great battle imminent, there is no need for mercy. If you encounter the Chu Heavenly Clan's juniors, kill them without exception," the old woman said.
"That is inappropriate," the old man said.
"Listen to me," the old woman snapped.
"Understood."
The eight juniors cupped their fists and bowed, answering in unison.
