Turns Out, I’m In A Villain Clan! Chapter 734 An Agreement Among the Top Clan
Previously on Turns Out, I’m In A Villain Clan!...
Qin Head quietly looked around the hall.
Every gaze was focused on her.
Seeing this, Qin Head sighed inwardly.
Since the truth would eventually come out anyway, there was little point in hiding it any longer.
It would be better to reveal some information herself and maintain a good relationship with the other top factions.
Qin Head's charming smile returned.
"Since everyone is so curious..."
She slowly opened her mouth.
"I suppose there is no harm in telling you what we know."
The expressions of everyone present immediately changed.
But while the others focused on Qin Head, Long Head remained completely silent.
He had not spoken a single word from beginning to end.
He simply sat there with his eyes slightly lowered, as though he had not even heard Ye Head's question.
No one knew what he was thinking.
However, since Qin Head was willing to answer their questions, no one paid much attention to Long Head.
All eyes were focused on her.
Ye Head was the first to speak.
"So, are the rumors outside true?"
Qin Head did not immediately answer.
She glanced around the hall before slowly nodding.
"Yes!"
Her single word caused the atmosphere to change instantly.
"We also suspect that the True God's Legacy is located somewhere within the Eastern Continent."
She paused briefly before adding,
"And according to the information we have gathered, the Desolate Heaven Empire is the most likely location."
Boom!
The moment those words fell, the entire hall erupted into commotion.
"So the rumors are actually true?"
"The Qin Clan already knew about this?"
"They might have already gotten a head start!"
"If they have been investigating the Desolate Heaven Empire for some time, they might have already narrowed down the exact location of the True God's Legacy!"
"We might already be too late!"
"I heard the Tianyuanmen Sect has already sent people toward the Eastern Continent!"
The voices of the various faction leaders overlapped.
The calm atmosphere from earlier completely disappeared.
Everyone understood what this meant.
If the True God's Legacy was truly located in the Desolate Heaven Empire, then every moment they wasted here was another moment for their rivals to get ahead.
Ye Head's expression became slightly solemn.
"Silence!"
His voice was not particularly loud. Yet the moment it echoed through the hall, every voice immediately stopped.
The countless figures turned their attention toward him.
Ye Head slowly swept his gaze across the hall.
"Since the rumors regarding the True God's Legacy have been confirmed, there is no reason for us to waste any more time here."
"We will all send our people to the Desolate Heaven Empire and search for True God's Legacy ourselves."
Everyone remained silent, listening carefully.
"However, before we do that, I would like to suggest an agreement."
Ye Head's expression became serious.
"People whom we sent will not attack one another until the True God's Legacy is found."
The moment these words were spoken, several people nodded thoughtfully.
"After all, if we start fighting among ourselves now, the one who benefits from our conflict might be someone else."
"If our people waste their strength fighting each other, another faction could take advantage of the situation and obtain the True God's Legacy before us."
"Therefore, I believe it would be better to make things clear from the beginning."
Ye Head's proposal was straightforward.
And it benefited everyone present.
If they agreed not to fight each other while searching for the True God's Legacy, they could focus entirely on finding it instead of worrying about their rivals attacking them from behind.
No one had any reason to reject such an agreement.
"I agree."
"So do I."
"There is no reason to fight before we even find the True God's Legacy."
One after another, the faction leaders agreed.
Soon, the agreement was finalized.
However, there was one obvious detail.
The agreement only prohibited them from fighting until the True God's Legacy was found.
It said nothing about what would happen afterward.
But everyone understood why.
Once the True God's Legacy was discovered, who would actually remain obedient to the agreement?
The moment the location of the legacy was revealed, the real battle would begin.
Everyone would want it.
And no one would willingly watch another faction take the True God's Legacy.
Therefore, there was no need to include anything beyond that point.
The agreement was quickly signed by the various factions.
One after another, the leaders added their names.
Finally, it was the Long Clan's turn.
Long Head picked up the agreement and quietly read through it.
He remained silent for several moments.
Because of this, Ye Head and the others couldn't help but look at him.
(Could he be planning to disagree?)
After all, everyone else had already signed.
Long Head slowly placed the agreement down.
Then, he stood up.
"I have something to say."
The hall immediately became quiet.
Everyone looked toward him.
Long Head's expression remained calm.
"I sent my son, Long Haotian, to the Eastern Continent to search for True God's Legacy."
He paused.
"However, it has already been several months since I last received any message from him."
A faint trace of concern appeared in his eyes.
"I don't know what happened to him."
Long Head looked around the hall.
"Therefore, if any of you can protect my son or have obtained information regarding my son..."
He paused briefly.
"I am willing to offer a hefty reward in exchange for it."
The moment those words fell, several people exchanged glances.
Long Haotian was an important figure of the Long Clan.
If he had disappeared for several months without sending any message, something had clearly happened.
Though some of them wondered what could be there in such a remote place to trouble someone like Long Haotian, who was already in the Golden Immortal Realm, they did not think too much about it.
After all, the Eastern Continent had much weaker cultivators compared to the Central Glorious Continent.
What could possibly happen to someone of Long Haotian's strength?
Several faction leaders nodded.
"Long Head, you don't need to worry too much. I will definitely instruct our people to protect Long Haotian if they encounter him."
"Indeed. If we find him, we will immediately inform the Long Clan."
"With so many of us sending people to the Eastern Continent, finding Long Haotian shouldn't be difficult."
"That's right. You can rest assured!"
One after another, the various faction leaders expressed their willingness to help.
Although they had their own motives for heading to the Eastern Continent, there was no reason for them to refuse such a small request.
Besides, the Long Clan was one of the Top-5 Strongest Clan. So if they could make the Long Clan owe them, it would come in handy in the future.
Long Head listened to their words and slowly raised his hand.
"Thank you, everyone!"
His voice remained calm, but there was a faint trace of sincerity in his eyes.
After all, Long Haotian was not only his son.
He was also one of the greatest geniuses of the Long Clan.
With his talent and current cultivation, there was a possibility that Long Haotian could one day step into the Supreme Immortal Realm.
Therefore, Long Head could not simply ignore his disappearance.
Even if asking the other factions for help was somewhat embarrassing for him, he had no choice.
Long Haotian was his son with the most promising future.
"Then, I will trouble everyone."
Long Head gave a slight nod.
Qin Head merely smiled as she listened.
She already knew what had happened from Qin Lingxiao.
She also knew that Long Haotian had been detained by a clan known as the Bai Clan in the Desolate Heaven Empire.
However, Qin Head had absolutely no intention of revealing this information.
Why would she?
If the other top factions went to the Eastern Continent and clashed with the Bai Clan, then the Qin Clan could simply watch from the sidelines.
Let the others fight.
Let them weaken each other.
The more chaotic the situation became, the more opportunities the Qin Clan would have.
If she revealed everything she knew now, the other factions would undoubtedly become cautious.
They would investigate the Bai Clan carefully before making any move.
Then stirring between them would be difficult.
Therefore, Qin Head simply maintained her charming smile and remained silent.
She had no intention of saying anything more than necessary.
