With those words from Mu Jinyu, the atmosphere at the scene couldn't help but become tense.
Le Le and Ren Xiaoyao's relationship with Dragon King Hall was already not very good, and for some of the tense organization leaders, their faces turned visibly unhappy.
Ren Xiaoyao spoke up, "What now, the trouble that your Dragon King Hall has caused, you need us all to help solve it? We only asked you to explain yourself and exert more effort in this matter, are you actually thinking of getting physical with us?"
Le Le and Ren Xiaoyao didn't want to fight with Dragon King Hall. Given the current situation, causing internal strife was definitely not the wise choice.
Even if they wanted to settle scores with Dragon King Hall, it would have to wait until this dark turmoil was over.
What they wanted was for Dragon King Hall, representing the Huaxia Faction, to contribute a significant quantity of gold in this matter.
Mu Jinyu was well aware of their intentions. He looked at them coldly and said, "I had no intention of getting into a fight with you, but if you think of dumping the blame on Dragon King Hall and making us pay the price, then don't even think about it!"
"You say that it is because of my junior brother that this dark turmoil has arisen, but I can also say, if it weren't for the 'Omniscient' ones speaking carelessly, how would my junior brother have ended up in this damned place?"
Li Yaotong's face froze upon hearing Mu Jinyu's words.
If they really wanted to shift the blame, it could actually fall on the heads of the Omniscient.
After all, if it hadn't been for someone thinking that Xiang Mantang was being too reckless and needed to calm down, or maybe to give him some guidance, and then letting him come here, probably this dark turmoil wouldn't have happened.
Mu Jinyu didn't even look at Li Yaotong's face; he wasn't really trying to shift the blame onto the Omniscient, he just felt that everyone had a responsibility.
He continued, "Moreover, after my junior brother arrived at this place, he found the Folded Space where demons were imprisoned. I suspect that there is someone behind this!
Mu Jinyu himself didn't know for sure whether there was someone causing trouble.
He just felt it to be quite possible.
Although Xiang Mantang was smart and had the experience of freely entering and exiting Kunlun Ruins, it's not plausible that he would immediately know how to enter a place with a Folded Space.
If it was that easy to enter, the demons would likely have caused trouble long ago, and there would have been no need to wait for Xiang Mantang to take action.
He initially suspected that this dark turmoil was orchestrated by the Omniscient leading Xiang Mantang into it.
But then again, he felt that the likelihood wasn't very high since all the interactions the Omniscient had with Xiang Mantang had already been logged by Gao Yu.
So, while the Omniscient were suspicious, other organizations that usually kept a low profile, like Heavenly Palace and Paradise Lost, could also be likely suspects.
Even Fallen Splendor and Brilliant Divine Authority, organizations that bore some grudge against Dragon King Hall, weren't beyond suspicion!
Mu Jinyu's cold gaze swept over everyone, warning, "Don't let me find out who pushed my junior brother into this!"
He didn't utter any threats, but his tone made his stance clear.
Le Le's heart tightened, but he kept his composure.
The faces of Ren Xiaoyao and the others looked slightly worse, appearing as if they wanted to say more.
Li Yaotong hurriedly intervened, "What are you doing fighting among ourselves at a time like this? This matter can't be entirely blamed on Dragon King Hall, and my Omniscient has indeed been negligent. Let's all take a step back!"
With Li Yaotong speaking up, Ren Xiaoyao took the opportunity to back down, "Hmph, for the sake of this guy, let's just drop this matter for now!"
He also wanted to blame Li Yaotong. If it were normal times, they would probably have already taken action against the Omniscient.
But now, in such a dark and tumultuous era, many things are shrouded in secrecy; they are all in the dark, and without the help of the "Omniscient," their situation would have likely been even more difficult.
Dependent on the "Omniscient," he naturally wouldn't trouble the "Omniscient."
Upon hearing Ren Xiaoyao's words, Mu Jinyu arched his eyebrows, maintaining his tough demeanor as he coldly sneered, "Waiting to bring up past events another day? I'm always ready to accompany you!"
Ren Xiaoyao's expression stiffened upon hearing this.
He had just been saying some face-saving words, indicating that this matter should be let go, but to his surprise, Mu Jinyu, the one who had erred, was even more hard-lined than him, leaving him somewhat unable to step down gracefully.
"Alright, alright, let's all take a step back and stop talking about it," Li Yaotong hurriedly interjected.
Eventually, Mu Jinyu snorted coldly and said no more.
Seeing that they hadn't come to blows, Li Yaotong finally relaxed a little and then continued, "I haven't finished what I was saying earlier, about the issue of suppressing demons...
The world's gold reserves are probably not enough to suppress all the demons and this method of suppression may not be very safe either. As the years pass, successors unaware of the perils of the Golden Coffin could sell it or melt it down, and if they release the demons that way, it would be very dangerous.
Therefore, the correct approach is to find the Folded Space that originally contained the Tide of Chaos and the first Demon and to completely secure them again..."
Le Le's gaze flickered as she spoke, "The only solution may indeed be this, but none of us knows where that original Folded Space, which held the demons, is located."
Lucifer suddenly said, "It doesn't matter if we can't find it; the Kunlun Mountain in Huaxia once had the Folded Space of the Kunlun Ruins, which can also be used to contain these demons."
Ren Xiaoyao cast a glance at him and said, "If you want to provoke the people of the Heavenly Palace, I don't mind you doing so."
Upon hearing the two words "Heavenly Palace," Lucifer immediately fell silent.
The group also moved past the topic of imprisoning the demons in the Kunlun Ruins.
After all, it was said that there were beings above the God Realm in the Kunlun Ruins, and should they throw demons in to cause chaos amongst them, provoking them to come out, they feared none of them would be able to bear the consequences!
So even though mentioning this plan could indeed throw Huaxia into disarray for a while, thinking of the consequences, they still didn't dare to actually carry it out.
Unless, the dark chaos eventually became absolutely uncontrollable, only then would they burn all bridges and lure the demons to the Kunlun Ruins, to let the people of the Heavenly Palace have a taste!
But this could only be the last resort.
"Alright, the task of finding a suitable Folded Space can't be rushed; being anxious won't help, so we can only take it step by step. For now, we seem to have some understanding of the patterns in confining demons, so let's go deal with the demons first."
Li Yaotong shifted the topic.
"Hmm, then let's split up and take action," the group said.
Why split up? Naturally, they would first check their own territories for any discord, and only afterward would they begin to scour the world for traces of the demons!
Li Yaotong understood their thoughts and didn't force them, allowing each power to allocate a location to inspect.
Representatives of the various powers quickly dispersed.
Mu Jinyu watched with his Divine Sense as the last person left, then turned to the unmoving Jian Ruyan and asked, "You should know Ah-Xiang's whereabouts, right? Tell me clearly."
