"The affairs of the Human Race shall be decided by all elder brothers."
Li Ping'an performed a formal greeting with folded hands and said earnestly:
"I will do my utmost to prevent Minghe from merging with the Inner Heavenly Dao."
"Time is of the essence; I will depart immediately to return to the Great Mage."
"Take care of everything, elder brother."
"Hmm," Xuanyuan Huangdi said gravely, "The moment Minghe merges with the Inner Heavenly Dao is the day our Human Race's Golden Immortals fall into the demon's path. You need not feel pressured by this, we must ensure that enough enemy forces are annihilated without suffering needless losses on our side."
Li Ping'an seemed to hesitate, wanting to say more.
However, he did not elaborate further, and with another formal gesture towards Xuanyuan Huangdi, he turned and hurriedly left.
Before rushing back to the Northern Continent, Li Ping'an specifically asked Jade Pool one more question.
