Chapter 2624 The God of Wine Takes the Lead
Chapter 2624 The God of Wine Takes the Lead
The God of Wine has clearly expressed his feelings to everyone, but he didn't mention the elixir at all. After all, he and Qin Fei had already divided these things up, so why would he take them out again?
As Qin Fei said, if you're offered a piece of fatty meat, you might as well eat it; once you start, you'll want more.
Since he didn't bring up the matter of the elixir, no one present dared to bring it up either, so they simply let the matter drop.
Although they felt it was a pity that they couldn't win over the god of wine, the elixir had been wasted.
But if you look at it from another angle, this is actually a good thing.
If Dionysus chooses not to help anyone, then his existence is essentially transparent, and the balance of power among all parties will not be broken. Isn't that a good thing?
“Senior Dionysus, if it were just for this one thing, I don’t think you would have gathered so many of us together on your own initiative, would you?” Zhang Tuo, the head of the Zhang family, asked.
"Yes."
Dionysus nodded, and then said, "I can see that you are very smart. I called you here not only for this matter, but also for another important matter that I want to discuss with you."
"Senior, please tell me."
Everyone present immediately focused their attention on Dionysus.
"I think everyone knows why you've come here. After some exploration, I've discovered a passage back to our ancestral land. However, the ancestral land is currently shrouded by a Great Dao that refuses entry to anyone of a high level. If we want to go back, we must confront it head-on, or even destroy it."
"Destroy...the Great Dao?"
Upon hearing this, everyone in the room couldn't help but change their expressions.
No one expected to hear such a shocking story from the god of wine.
The Great Dao is ruthless and possesses extraordinary offensive power; how can human beings contend with it?
Isn't that like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, courting death?
Seeing the shocked expressions on everyone's faces, the God of Wine did not offer much explanation. He slowly said, "According to my observation, the Great Dao within the ancestral land is collapsing on its own, and its collapse will accelerate after being attacked!"
At this point, Dionysus glanced at everyone and said, "Therefore, we need all parties to mobilize their forces and take joint action."
"Senior, those who defy the heavens will surely suffer divine retribution. Can we stop them?" someone asked with concern.
"Whether we can stop them or not, we still have to go. If the road back were so easy, why would we have been trapped in another world for thousands of years?"
Dionysus took a slight breath: "I'm just here as an intermediary to offer my advice. Those who want to listen can listen, and those who don't can stay here."
"No, since you're willing to step forward and take the lead, then of course we should all respond enthusiastically. My Wang family is willing to provide ten Dao Profound Realm experts!" Wang Fuqi, the head of the Wang family, was the first to state his position: "If that's not enough, we can add more people later!"
Since the Wang family had already said so, Zhang Tuo, the head of the Zhang family, naturally followed suit, saying, "My Zhang family is also willing to contribute ten people."
If Dionysus hadn't brought this up publicly today, even after a long time, it would have been difficult for everyone to truly unite.
Each faction has its own circumstances. When everyone comes together briefly for the same goal, they probably all have their own agendas, making it difficult to truly form alliances.
So since Dionysus is willing to step forward and take the lead, that's naturally the best thing.
"Our Divine Martial Sect will also send ten people!"
Since the two top-tier powers had already expressed their stance, Liang Xia, the sect leader of the Divine Martial Sect, naturally wouldn't stand idly by and immediately expressed his willingness to send people as well.
Hearing the three major powers stating their positions, the God of Wine remained silent until the surrounding conversations subsided before slowly saying, "Do you think the Dao Profound Realm is very powerful?"
"Or are you planning to use people of this caliber as cannon fodder?"
Dionysus spoke softly, but after he finished speaking, everyone present fell silent.
Clearly, they had all discerned the hidden meaning in the myth of wine.
That means the Dao Xuan realm is not enough.
"Senior, what level of people do you think we need?" In the end, it was the head of the Wang family who took a deep breath and stepped forward.
Silence is useless; eventually, they will have to ask the questions.
"My suggestion is that the stronger the better, even if it means we have to take the stage ourselves!"
Although he had not yet comprehended the power of the Heavenly Dao on Earth, as long as people of their level were to participate, the Heavenly Dao would surely unleash extremely severe divine punishment upon them. Those with weaker strength would likely be annihilated on the spot if they encountered such power.
Therefore, instead of sending people at the Dao Xuan Realm level to their deaths, it would be better to use truly top-tier experts from the very beginning.
"So what do we need to do?" Zhang Tuo, the head of the Zhang family, asked at this moment.
"I'm just sharing my thoughts with everyone for now. Some people haven't even arrived yet, so we'll have to wait a bit longer."
The Li family hasn't even come from there yet. As a top-tier power, if they don't send people, others certainly won't agree to send people either.
The idea that "one generation plants the trees so another can enjoy the shade" only applies to a single force. For something like this where everyone is working together, we definitely have to wait until everyone is present before we can discuss it.
"Alright, we are all willing to follow your instructions, senior."
Since things had already been discussed to this point and no one had any objections, the matter was naturally settled.
"It's all gone."
Having said what needed to be said, the God of Wine did not take up any more of everyone's time. With a wave of his hand, he removed the array that had enveloped the entire council hall.
Outside the hall.
Qin Fei watched almost the entire conversation. Although he couldn't clearly see what each person said, he had a general understanding of the meeting's content.
No wonder Dionysus refused to let him attend the meeting; perhaps he felt uncomfortable with the content of their conversation.
However, Dionysus is definitely wrong about this.
I will not object to them taking action against the Heavenly Dao on Earth.
Because the Heavenly Dao on Earth is indeed a deceptive thing, and it's even possible that it was intentionally left behind by someone to suppress all cultivators on Earth.
If the Heavenly Dao on Earth could be completely destroyed, perhaps the cultivation world on Earth would also usher in an unprecedented period of prosperity.
Therefore, Qin Fei definitely supports their conversation.
"Judging from your eager look, you're probably already cursing me out in your heart, aren't you?" Just then, Liang Xia walked out of the council hall and removed the sealing power from Qin Fei with a wave of her hand.
"Swearing is not something a person of my character should do. You're just judging me by my own petty standards. I never said I was going to swear at you," Qin Fei replied, patting his sleeve.
"That would be best if it weren't there."
"Young friend Qin, welcome to our Wang family."
Just then, Wang Fuqi, the head of the Wang family, came out of the council hall and took the initiative to extend an invitation to Qin Fei.
"I will definitely go when I have time," Qin Fei said politely.
"Our Zhang family's doors are always open for you." Zhang Tuo, the head of the Zhang family, came out at this moment and invited Qin Fei.
To be honest, Qin Fei was quite surprised that the heads of two top-tier forces had both taken the initiative to invite him to be their guest.
However, Qin Fei quickly regained his composure after the unexpected incident.
He knew that the reason they respected him was entirely because of his master. Without the God of Wine, he would probably be nothing more than an ant that could be slapped to death in their eyes.
Sometimes, one's background really is quite important.
At the very least, it has allowed Qin Fei to enjoy social status and benefits.
