Chapter 940: Chapter 941 Internal Conflict

"Internal strife? What a nuisance, yet daring to do so shows they don’t regard us at all."

Old Wei said coldly as he looked at the report in his hands. Setting down the report, he massaged his temples, thought for a moment, and then turned to walk into the darkness; behind him, a wisp of red candlelight gradually extinguished, and the room, filled with ancient texts, returned to darkness.

"Is there an urgent matter?"

Pushing up his glasses, the Grand Elder set down the documents in his hand and looked, puzzled, toward the corner of the room, where, although it appeared empty, he was too familiar with Old Wei. However, what could be the reason for his visit?

"Do you know about the split within the Hunters?"

Old Wei stepped out from the shadows and calmly faced the Grand Elder. Hearing this, the Grand Elder paused, finding it odd, and surveyed him,

"I wasn’t aware, but isn’t that a good thing? Even you must find those guys a headache? Now that they’ve split, they probably won’t have the same destructive power as before. Wait... what exactly caused their dispute?"

The Grand Elder thought for a moment, his expression growing serious as he gazed at Old Wei. Internal disputes could be bizarre, and if it were merely a matter of interests, that would be manageable. But if it involved ideologies...

"Different ideologies. One faction has completely sided with Melansis, even assisting Melansis in taking action against Estir."

Old Wei spoke with a hint of anger, prompting the Grand Elder to sigh with a look of realization,

"Your intelligence network is as formidable as ever, even getting information about what’s happening behind the scenes. Is Estir a Divine Beast?"

Though he seemed to recall the name, the Grand Elder wasn’t sure, especially because Estir, due to previous circumstances, rarely appeared before the public. Old Wei nodded,

"You’d better have them prepare. This time, the Divine Beasts might declare war directly in the Divine Land Region."

"This is truly..."

The Grand Elder had no doubt about Old Wei’s intelligence; he wasn’t in the mood for playing games. However, if Divine Beasts and Hunters were to battle in the Divine Land Region, he feared many countries would be affected. Lost in thought for a while, when he came to, Old Wei had already disappeared. Seeing this, the Grand Elder laughed self-deprecatingly, removed his glasses, and stood up.

It wasn’t just Great Xia that would be affected; other countries wouldn’t escape either. In fact, no country in the entire Divine Land Region would likely remain unaffected by this event. At least he could ascertain that there weren’t many Hunters active within Great Xia’s borders, especially since the G Organization was highly active in Great Xia; they wouldn’t be foolish enough to openly confront the G Organization.

Perhaps this was an opportunity to ally with some smaller nations? The thought occurred to the Grand Elder, who then spoke to the secretary outside the door,

"Tell Elder Li to wait for me at the entrance of the Central Institution."

"Aren’t you going?"

Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan somewhat surprised. At this moment, Agunas, who had been beside him, had already disappeared without a trace. Veronia, presumably because she didn’t recognize Estir, hadn’t left to search for clues. Feng Yuan stroked Xiao Ji’s head and said,

"I’m not going. It’s better to leave this matter to them to resolve for now. Besides, I don’t even know where Estir is."

"Could it be by the sea? I remember you saying that it seemed its first stop was to see the ocean."

Qi Chen speculated, staring at him for a while before Feng Yuan smiled and said,

"I don’t know, but even if it’s by the sea, with such a vast area, how could I find it alone? However, the commotion this time is massive. Except for the regional Guardian Divine Beasts, all other Divine Beasts without tasks have mobilized."

After all, there really was someone who took action against a Divine Beast, and they succeeded. Hence, those Divine Beasts naturally erupted in anger. Just then, Feng Yuan’s phone rang. After speaking for a while, he shook his head and said,

"This is all madness, but it’s okay."

"What happened?"

Qi Chen, curious, looked towards Feng Yuan, not understanding what had occurred. Putting away his phone, Feng Yuan picked up Pomiti and said,

"Najia also wants to join the search. Hasn’t it considered its own combat power isn’t that strong?"

Not only Najia, but many Divine Beasts were not skilled in combat. Yet, they had their own friends, perfectly able to move with their more combat-capable friends, compensating for their lack of strength. In some aspects, they possessed unique attributes, perfectly capable of handling some issues that couldn’t be solved with strength alone.

As for Najia? It didn’t have many friends, or almost none, since it had been asleep for far too long. And the Vermilion Bird that accompanied Wu Feng? As a long-inherited Divine Beast, it could certainly join the Earth Qilin and the others. Nagna, even more so, Feng Yuan guessed it must be with Lorraine Tower, protected by it, those Hunters really couldn’t do much to it.

Although he was not devoid of the ability to track Divine Beasts, the disturbance caused would be too great. Although the rules of the forest were weakened at this time, Feng Yuan could feel that Estir had not yet suffered too severe an injury, so he could wait until they found it before making a move.

"Do they also need to investigate the Netherworld? But do those people really have the capability?" Veronia asked, somewhat puzzled. Feng Yuan glanced at Veronia and said,

"They said they want to search the Netherworld?"

"Those Ghost-type Divine Beasts seem to think so, but I believe it’s unlikely." The Netherworld was no benign land. Ordinary people who ventured in without sufficient strength could perish within minutes under the dense Breath of Death, and even those Sacred Beast Level Beastmasters, how many dared to linger long in the Netherworld? Therefore, he didn’t think those Ghost-type Divine Beasts would find anything.

Feng Yuan suddenly thought of something and spoke with an inexplicable expression, "It’s not entirely impossible, in fact. How about this, Xiao Ji, come with me to the Netherworld later; we might just stumble upon an unexpected discovery."

"How so? They shouldn’t have the capability to survive in such a place."

Veronia looked at Feng Yuan with a hint of surprise, to which Feng Yuan mysteriously smiled and said, "Have you forgotten what type of civilization backs them?"

"Technological civilization? This... seems likely indeed." Veronia suddenly realized; a major feature of a technological civilization was its many mechanical creations. If those machines could continue to perform production tasks according to set programs, placing them in the Netherworld might not be impossible, but...

"Still, if that’s the case, how can they avoid the corruption of the Netherworld?" The corruption of the Netherworld didn’t merely involve the Breath of Death harming living beings; it also included the Corrosion Effect on different objects. The machines might be immune from the Breath of Death, but the corruption of the Netherworld was unavoidable.

"Energy Barriers and such? As long as they do not interfere with the machines’ operations, they can entirely use more aggressive energy barrier defense strategies." Feng Yuan placed Pomiti on the table and, addressing the thoughtful Little Green Snake, said,

"I’ll entrust it to your care for a while; we’re stepping out." Little Green Snake shook its head and hissed at Feng Yuan, who looked over. Veronia turned her head with some displeasure and translated,

"It says it wants to go with you; it feels like it should contribute." "Oh? That’s possible too... then, I’ll leave it to you～" Little Green Snake hissed and nodded its head. Xiao Ji immediately issued a loud eagle cry as if to say it could also help. Qi Chen glanced at Feng Yuan and said,

"Should I help you look after Pomiti?" If those people were really up to something in the Netherworld, he doubted whether Feng Yuan could attend to Pomiti. After thinking it over, Feng Yuan stuffed Pomiti into Qi Chen’s arms and said,

"Well then, I’ll trouble you～" "Where do we start?" Veronia looked puzzled at Feng Yuan. Even though they had now reached the Netherworld, the Netherworld’s vastness was no less than that of the real world, and without a target, finding those folks might be difficult. Feng Yuan gently patted Xiao Ji and said,

"If those things in the Netherworld intend to cause trouble, in any case, the flow of the Breath of Death will be abnormal, so we’ll rely on you two. If you feel that the flow of the Breath of Death is unusual somewhere, you can check it out. Of course, if there are anomalies on the spatial plane, you can look into those too."

Hearing Feng Yuan’s words, Xiao Ji and Little Green Snake immediately began sensing their surroundings, and Veronia, tilting her head, looked puzzled; both Xiao Ji and Little Green Snake’s powers were still weak, their sensing range ought to be limited.
