The White Tiger Esteemed Emissary, who was behind the Black Tortoise Esteemed Emissary, froze for a moment when he heard the latter speak. Then, a look of wild joy spread across his face.
Among the few at the gathering who knew the identity of Grandmaster Gong Buyu, the Black Tortoise Esteemed Emissary was undeterred by whether he would receive an accurate response. Merely this attitude was enough to dispel any potential dissatisfaction from the Supreme Taoist.
If they could establish a relationship with the Supreme Taoist through the Cultivation Conference, even Emperor Xia would be overjoyed.
While various thoughts were swirling among the attendees, Gong Buyu, who was brought to the forefront, frowned slightly and said coldly:
"You handle the matters of the Cultivation Conference yourselves. It has nothing to do with me."
