While Lin Mu and his companions were waiting in the Inheritance grounds in these six months, other events were unfolding in various parts of the Rust Sky World.

Back in the Capital of the Dao Wind Empire, a secret meeting was currently taking place.

It happened in the temple of the Four Guardian beasts and was attended by several influential and powerful people.

Several seats were set in a circular hall, allowing all the people occupying it to have a clear view of the center where a large Formation Screen was floating.

Everyone focused on the Formation screen that depicted a rough doughnut shaped map with several borders drawn on it. The map was highly detailed, showing every twisting and winding river, edges of territory that zigzagged through the land in a nonuniform manner as well as the complex topography.

Several names also hovered on the map, labeling the territories as well as various locations within them. Ring Mist Kingdom, Rock Drop Kingdom, Great Wave kingdom, Purple Sparrow Kingdom, Cloud Fall Knight, Dragon Plane Kingdom, Dust Light Kingdom, and Steel Heart kingdom.

These were all the members of the Eight Kingdom Alliance, showing that this was a map of their continent.

"The conflict only seems to be getting worse." An old man spoke. He had a long beard that seemed to reach his waist and was bound at the bottom to his belt. One of his eyes seemed to be clouded, showing that it didn't work while the other eye had a sharp look to it.

"War Minister, we need to prepare some response to the war in the Eight Kingdom Continent." Another man dressed in the armor of a general spoke.

"General Po Jun, we need to tread carefully here, we cannot be the first ones to act." War Minister replied. "As of now, the conflict has nothing to do with us and as such we are not liable to participate in it. Isn't that correct, High Elder Juxue?" he asked looking at another old man.

This was none other than the High Elder of the temple of the four guardian beasts and was the overseer of the current meeting.

"It's correct." High Elder Juxue nodded. "As per the rules of the Immortal Court as well as the Temple of the Guardian beasts, this conflict is an internal matter of the Eight Kingdom Alliance. We do not recommend participating in it." He stated.

"But we cannot just sit around like this." General Po Jun protested. "If we don't do anything and the conflict spills over, the very balance of the entire Rust Sky World's powers can change. Their conflict can very well turn into a Transcontinental War!" he said out loud.
