In the Eternal Sacred Land, although the crisis was temporarily resolved, the mood of everyone, including Jiang Chen, was not lighthearted. Undoubtedly, after Jiang Chen extracted the essence of their lives from those two protectors alive, everyone knew a mortal grudge now existed between the Eternal Sacred Land and Elder Guang Du.
The Second Saint Master expressed his concerns, "Jiang Chen, I've heard that those two protectors were Elder Guang Du's most trusted and reliable aides. Now that we've eliminated them completely, haven't we severed all possibility of negotiating with Elder Guang Du?"
The Second Saint Master was somewhat uncomfortable, not because Jiang Chen refined the essence of the two protectors, but because Jiang Chen did not share any gains with him or the Eternal Sacred Land.
Thus, although his words were courteous, there was nonetheless an undercurrent of emotions.
