The Origin Sect's elders had assembled in the Great Hall. No elder could reject since they had been summoned by the Sect Master.

From the Grand Elder to Hugo Corlett, every elder had gathered in this vast hall. Hugo Corlett had already learned of Patrick's meeting with the Sect Master, which was to discuss something related to it.

He was a little worried as he thought that Patrick had complained to the sect master. And the Sect Master was going to provide him justice.

"No. He doesn't have any proof against me," He whispered with a confident expression.

On the right and left sides, there were seats. There's also a single throne on a higher platform.

.

That Throne was for the Sect Master while the elders sat on the seats placed on both sides.

This hall was constructed in a similar interior to that of the Royal Court.

The Sect Master of the Origin Sect wanted to experience the same feeling like a King within the Origin Sect. Thus, this Grand Hall was designed like this.

The customs in this Grand Hall were similar to the customs in the Royal Court.

Every individual who stepped into this Grand Hall would pay their respects to the Sect Master with a simple kowtow.

That person was only permitted to sit in his seat once the Sect Master gave him permission.

When the elders noticed Patrick seated on the far end of the Sect Master's left-hand side, they were taken aback.

Only the elders were allowed to take their seats in this Hall.

"How dare you sit here?!" An elder roared at Patrick. This man was quite an old-looking fellow with an ancestral aura around him.

He was a supporter of Hugo Corlett, and he was well aware that Patrick was his rival. As a result, he wasn't kind to Patrick and intended to cause him trouble.

Patrick spoke with a calm gaze, "Sect Master allowed me to sit here."

As if to support that statement, the sect master's voice resounded in the Grand Hall, "That's indeed right."

The elder who wanted to look for trouble against Patrick immediately fell silent. He didn't expect the Sect Master to come to Patrick's side so soon.

He looked in Hugo Corlett's direction and shook his head lightly. Hugo Corlett understood the meaning behind that signal.

The elder was basically notifying that he had done all he could. He won't be getting involved in this scene for a while.

Hugo Corlett had expected this after seeing the sect master involving himself and coming to Patrick's defense.

The Sect Master waited for the elders to take their seats before speaking with his loud and clear voice, "I have summoned you all for two important reasons. The first is that we have a new elder of the Origin Sect. His name is Patrick Kewin."

Patrick Kewin stood up, and all the elders within the Grand Hall swept their eyes at him at least once.

Most of them were uninvolved in the rivalry between Hugo Corlett and Patrick. They looked at Patrick and recalled that this was a genius of their sect from a decade ago.

"During these years, he had stayed and managed the Origin Sect Branch within Veninza City. But now he has returned and will stay here as the Outer-Sect Elder," The Sect Master finished speaking.

An elder suddenly spoke up, "I do not wish to doubt the Sect Master's judgement but not just anyone can become the Origin Sect's Elder, especially not of the Main Branch."

His words didn't annoy the Sect Master. He was quite familiar with this elder and knew that this man had an honest and frank personality.

"He possesses a solid 5 Star Cultivation. It shows that he possesses a strong foundation and hasn't used some kind of supplements to break through. His Ardor is quite pure and dense enough. Is that enough to convince you, or do I ask him to demonstrate?" The Sect Master spoke.

His query was directed at all of the other elders. He wanted to know whether they had any concerns about his decision.

Naturally, no elder dared to speak against his decision. Even if they were slightly unsure, they knew that it would be best if they kept their mouth shut at this moment.

Only the Grand Elder possessed the age and prestige to speak anything against the Sect Master. But he stayed silent at this moment.

As there were no further responses from these elders, the Sect Master launched the second bomb.

"The Origin Sect Branch in Veninza City has fallen out with the Dragon Tiger Palace. The Dragon Tiger Palace invaded our territory, and despite being warned, they refused to leave. Our warriors attacked them to force them to leave our territory."

"And now, the Dragon Tiger Palace intends to retaliate by destroying our Origin Sect Branch in Veninza City," The Sect Master finished speaking.

All of the elders' facial expressions shifted at the same time. They had not anticipated clashing with the Dragon Tiger Palace.

The Dragon Tiger Palace was a major source of raw alchemical resources. A conflict with them meant that the Origin Sect would no longer be able to concoct their own pellets.

The Origin Sect would need to pay a high price if they tried to obtain those resources in a roundabout way.

"Patrick Kewin, I believe the Sect Master just mentioned that you were the leader of the Origin Sect's Branch in Veninza City. I am wondering how you could have allowed this conflict to develop to such an extent?" These words were spoken by a middle-aged elder with a mocking tone.

Patrick remained silent at those words. He actually had no answer since this conflict arose because of Azaroth.

The Sect Master's voice suddenly resounded in the Grand Hall, "Silence!"

The elders were shocked to hear this voice. They turned towards him and then heard him speak, "I don't need some internal fighting among us. For now, our enemy is the Dragon Tiger Palace. Remain focused on that. Give me ideas on how we should deal with this situation."

"Yes, Sect Master," The elder who had previously questioned Patrick murmured in a low tone.

At this moment, Hugo Corlett suddenly spoke up, "We should immediately try to contact the Dragon Tiger Palace and try to placate them. If this situation can be resolved through some gifts, then that's for the best."

The Sect Master nodded his head at the suggestion. This was indeed a reasonable suggestion.

"A most logical decision. However, I have something else in my mind," The sect master spoke with a calm tone.

Hugo Corlett sat on his seat while gazing in the sect master's direction, curious to hear what he wanted to say.

"I want to use this dispute against the Dragon Tiger Palace," said the Sect Master, a cunning smirk on his face.

"How will we do that?" An elder asked. His question was very natural. In fact, the other elders were thinking the same thing.

The Sect Master spoke resolutely, "You don't need to know the details. Just stay prepared to send a warning note to the Dragon Tiger Palace. If they try to destroy the Origin Sect Branch within Veninza City, the Origin Sect will use all its resources to destroy them."

All the elders were quite surprised as they heard this statement. They didn't expect that the Sect Master would go to such lengths to save the Origin Sect Branch in Veninza City.

"The King can't punish us since the Dragon Tiger Palace is the one in the wrong. We are just protecting ourselves," The Sect Master added at the end.
