"What, is it as I said, that old guy Qin Wu failed to return?"

Seeing Qu Hun rush into the hall in a hurry, Bai Mu raised an evil smile on his lips.

"Elder Bai Mu knows everything. It is true that Qin Wu did not bring anyone back."

"Just how should we respond next? Elder Bai Mu, do you really believe that the Imperial people will abide by their agreement?"

Qu Hun pursed his lips and asked in a low voice.

"Ha, don't worry, at most it's just another play with them."

"The internal battle within Tianyu Empire is not over yet, and the true successor has not yet been selected. It is impossible for them to kill us."

"At most, a few Snow Clan warriors will die, and the old guys who followed Qin Wu will be given to the empire as gifts."

Bai Mu said casually, having already decided the fate of the four elders who followed Qin Wu in his heart.

Listening to this, Qu Hun couldn't help but feel a slight tremor in his heart. He couldn't help but feel a little entangled now.

Just when Bai Muzhi walked to the bed with great satisfaction and looked at the snowy scene outside the castle.

Suddenly, a Snow Clan warrior broke into the hall, looking panicked.

"Elder Quhun, it turns out you are at Elder Bai Mu's place."

When the Snow Clan warrior saw Qu Hun here, his expression became much calmer, and he hurriedly spoke.

"Huh? What happened?"

Seeing the outsiders arriving, Qu Hun and Bai Mu both calmed down their expressions and asked in a solemn voice.

"Reporting to the two elders, the Qingbei Marquis of the Tianyu Empire has led an army to the border."

"At the same time, they also sent news that they were sending people to negotiate with them about the release of Great Elder Qin Wu."

The Snow Clan warrior couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva as he spoke, and spoke nervously.

"The Great Elder was captured by the Qingbei Marquis?!"

Bai Mu pretended to be surprised and shouted at the Snow Clan warrior.

"Yes, yes Elder Bai Mu. Based on the aura sent by the imperial soldier sent by Qing Beihou, we can tell that the great elder has indeed fallen into their hands."

The Snow Clan soldier said with an embarrassed expression. No one could have imagined that the Great Elder would be caught by the Empire.

"Damn it, why didn't you explain this to me earlier!"

Bai Mu pretended to be angry and shouted, then rushed out of the hall and went straight to the conference room in the castle.

When Qu Hun saw this, a dark look flashed in his eyes, and he followed quickly.

Not long after, the two people headed by Bai Mu came to the conference room.

In the conference room, seven other elders except Bai Mu and Qu Hun had gathered.

It's just that the middle position is vacant at this time.

In addition to the nine elders, there was also the imperial soldier who came to report in the conference room.

He was seen arrogantly looking at the other elders in the conference room.

Although he was just an ordinary messenger in the Qing Beihou army, he knew that he was representing the empire at this time.

Even when facing these high-ranking elders in the snow country, there was no look of fear at all.

"What's going on!"

Bai Mu walked into the conference room with a solemn expression and sat directly in his seat. At the same time, he took a deep look at the imperial messenger.

His eyes were different from those of other elders, with a deep hostility and malice.

Faced with such a gaze, the messenger couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"Elder Bai Mu, you are finally here."

"According to what this imperial messenger said, the Great Elder must have indeed been captured by the Qing Beihou."

"Then the Marquis of Qingbei asked us to send a representative to negotiate with him."

"The specific content of the negotiations is not yet known, but the trip is very dangerous. We are discussing who should go."

One of the four elders who followed Qin Wu said with a worried look on his face.

"Well... I already understand this matter. If someone must be involved in such a dangerous situation, then you might as well leave this task to me."

Bai Mu nodded slightly, and immediately stood up with a righteous look.

But his appearance immediately aroused the suspicion of the four elders who followed Qin Wu.

"Elder Bai Mu, this matter needs to be discussed together with me."

"Now that the Great Elder is away, we should work together as a team instead of showing off one person's power."

An elder spoke in a deep voice. This person was the one who made a fuss about the past feud between Qing Beihou and Bai Mu yesterday.

When Bai Mu heard these words, his eyebrows suddenly darkened.

"Okay, then according to the rules of the Council of Elders, we will vote to decide who will go to negotiate."

After Bai Mu said this, he raised his hand and pointed directly at himself. The three elders following him also pointed at him without any surprise.

The other four elders who followed Qin Wu all pointed at the candidates they had already decided for negotiation.

At this time, the eyes of the seven people in the field were all focused on Qu Hun.

The four elders on Qin Wu's side all looked as if they were sure that Qu Hun would choose their side.

After all, Qu Hun has been following the Great Elder ever since the Elders Council was established.

This time the Great Elder was in danger, it was reasonable for their side to send someone to negotiate.

However, in their expectant eyes, Qu Hun slowly stretched out his hand and pointed at Bai Mu.

This move immediately caused shock to the four elders on Qin Wu's side.

"Elder Quhun, what are you doing?"

"Have you already betrayed Great Elder Qin Wu?"

The four of them looked at Qu Hun in astonishment, and some even slammed the table and stood up, accusing him loudly.

Qu Hun could only bow his head in the face of their accusations.

"Heh, four elders, you actually said that Elder Qu Hun betrayed Elder Qin Wu?"

"Isn't the principle of our Elders' Council at the beginning to treat each other fairly and justly?"

Facing the accused Qu Hun, Bai Mu chose to stand up and stand by him, speaking calmly.

At the same time, the three elders who followed Bai Mu also stood up and looked at them unkindly.

Obviously, they were not as cunning as Bai Mu, and they just expressed their hostility simply and clearly at this time.

"You!"

The four elders on Qin Wu's side, looking at this situation, had already guessed that Qu Hun had been won over by Bai Mu.

At this time, they had lost Qin Wu and no longer had any substantial authority in this Elders' Council.

"It seems that the four elders are so anxious about the capture of Elder Qin Wu that they can't help but feel a little uncomfortable."

"In that case, please go back to your own halls and rest for a while, and wait for this storm to pass."

Bai Mu shook his head and pretended to be regretful, then clapped his hands, and immediately a large number of Snow Clan warriors rushed into the meeting room.

These Snow Clan warriors quickly surrounded the four elders, staring at them fiercely.
