If he hadn't personally witnessed Qin Feng break open the Hua Le Palace in just a short time, the King of Radiance would never have made such a rash decision.
The Grotto Heaven within Chongming Hall was where the Chongming Race had invested their efforts for tens of thousands of years. The King of Radiance was utterly unwilling to entrust the lives and fortunes of his people to an outsider.
But if he refused, the fate of the Bright Saint King Butterfly race was a clear warning of what awaited them.
"You two Elders, go and restrain some of our kinsmen!"
A glint of coldness flashed in the King of Radiance's eyes.
A portion of his kinsmen had been thoroughly brainwashed by the Barbaric Ancestral Court, becoming its die-hard loyalists. To preserve the Chongming Race, the King of Radiance didn't mind sacrificing them first.
"Yes, my King!"
The two Elders were filled with sorrow.
'This was the best path forward they had.'
...
"Quite a treasure!"
