Penglai City.
Located on the East Sea Coast.
Spanning a vast area, surrounded by waters on all sides.
The fishery here is flourishing, with residents often going out to sea for generations; the entire city is exceptionally prosperous.
At this moment.
In a certain hidden secret chamber, the light is dim.
Only a single white candle is quietly burning here.
Around it sit more than a dozen people, their faces hidden in the shadows, making it difficult to discern them.
"What should we do? The news from Elder Long Teng has arrived. The new Saint Son sent by the Celestial Demon Sect this time is extraordinarily powerful, somewhat uncanny. With just one palm, he injured five elders at once, and even killed three elders, Long Yun, Long Xiao, and Long Ting. Elder Long Teng suggests they keep a low profile for now. Should we take this opportunity to withdraw?"
A hoarse and sharp voice came from the center.
"Withdraw?"
