Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 661 - 656: Xuanyuan Hall Council
```
"This sudden change, too unexpected, the Alien Race has attacked so quickly; there's no time to prepare!"
Fourth Hall Master Hong Wuji also had a stern face, his palm slammed down onto a stone table nearby, which naturally could not withstand a blow from a Great Power of the Yin-Yang Realm and instantly turned into powder.
The people of Xuanyuan Hall all wore grim expressions. In truth, they felt helpless. They all knew chaos was imminent and had made some preparations in secret. However, the sudden two years' advancement of the timeline had certainly disrupted some of their plans.
"The key issue is, at this critical moment, why is the First Hall Master nowhere to be found? Where on earth has he gone?"
Doubt was also apparent on the face of the Fifth Hall Master at this time.
Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze swept towards the empty chair at the forefront. That was the First Hall Master's seat, and he had never missed a meeting at Xuanyuan Hall before, except for this time.
Moreover, at such a critical juncture of great chaos, the First Hall Master should have received the message from the Great Wall of Heaven, but he had disappeared without a trace.
"I've heard the First Hall Master has already reached the legendary Peak Realm. Could it be he's seeking the opportunity to make a breakthrough?"
Seventh Hall Master Zhao Xuanzhen took the initiative to speak up. In Xuanyuan Hall, the First Hall Master had often helped him, and over the years, he also frequently took care of the juniors from the Tianyong Pavilion entering the Outer Battlefield.
Now that the First Hall Master was under suspicion, he felt compelled to stand up and say something in his defense.
Even though he himself felt the reason was somewhat far-fetched.
When Zhao Xuanzhen spoke these words, everyone's expressions shifted slightly. The incident that had occurred in Duel City had already spread, and they all knew that the First Hall Master had reached the apex of the Yin-Yang Realm, the Peak Realm!
It is known that the Peak Realm is the closest to that legendary Realm above the Yin-Yang Realm.
To be at the Peak Realm means the legendary Realm is within reach at any moment.
Currently, it appears that on the surface, the only person known to have reached the Peak Realm is the First Hall Master. Now Zhao Xuanzhen's excuse seemed far-fetched indeed, but it wasn't entirely impossible.
"Whether he's in the Peak Realm is up for debate. Which of you has truly seen his Realm?"
The Second Hall Master of the Bu Family suddenly let out a cold snort at this time.
Everyone looked askance at this remark, aware of some discord between the Second Hall Master and the First Hall Master. This was not any major secret.
"Let's not dwell on whether it's the Peak Realm or not. But if he truly cared about Xuanyuan Hall and the bigger picture, he wouldn't have chosen this time to look for a breakthrough opportunity."
"Ever since he returned from Duel City, he disappeared. Just now, I also transmitted a message to him through the Sound Transmission Jade Tablet, but got no response."
"The First Hall Master couldn't possibly have missed the message. With the Alien Race Army's massive invasion, his sudden disappearance at this time might be fishy, and no one can be sure."
Bu Family Patriarch said, his voice tinged with cold disdain.
The other five individuals in the Great Hall changed color simultaneously. The Second Hall Master was implicitly suggesting a grave accusation against the First Hall Master, linking the invasion of the Alien Race Army and the First Hall Master's absence, which was no small matter!
"Second Hall Master, your words are too severe. The invasion of the Alien Race Army is a matter for the Great Wall of Heaven. In recent days, the First Hall Master has been leading the juniors in the Source Secret Realm; both matters are not related."
Zhao Xuanzhen said it at this time, and the others harbored similar thoughts. However, they all knew the Second Hall Master deliberately slandered the First Hall Master and did not point out anything else.
"Speaking of which, has the former Third Hall Master been found?"
The speaker was a beautiful middle-aged woman, the Eighth Hall Master from the Flora Sect.
Zhao Xuanzhen's expression tightened slightly at this moment. The Third Hall Master was an elder from the Li Family of Tianyong Pavilion and had been chased away by Ye Feng during his first visit to Xuanyuan Hall—an episode that left him rather helpless.
Although they were all from Tianyong Pavilion, the Third Hall Master, driven by greed and the instigation of juniors from his family, challenged Ye Feng.
Most absurdly, he was defeated by Ye Feng, who at that time was only at Half-Step Golden Core.
However, everybody knew that the Third Hall Master was not strong; to put it simply, he ascended to his position through connections and was not even at the strength of the Yin-Yang Realm, facing much criticism.
"No need to search for that guy; he's dead. When we found him, his body was almost completely eaten by an Alien Beast, with only his head remaining. He was probably ambushed by an Alien Beast while recovering."
"He wasn't strong to begin with and had the audacity to provoke the younger generation; he got what he deserved."
Bu Family Patriarch spoke dispassionately, his tone clearly conveying disdain for the Third Hall Master.
Although he didn't care much for Ye Feng, he despised the actions of the Third Hall Master even more and looked down on him.
"Let's not dwell on this for now. What we need to solve is how to arrange the last month, and what should we do with Earth?"
Bu Family Patriarch didn't linger on the topic of the Third Hall Master but began discussing with everyone how to deal with the impending chaos.
The assembled individuals immediately fell silent, one after another speaking up.
"At present, the Alien Race Army isn't numerous, so why not directly gather all our forces beforehand and annihilate all the Alien Race members that have entered our Human Realm?"

Fourth Hall Master Hong Wuji spoke in a cold voice.
Upon hearing this, everyone's faces lit up; they thought it was a good idea.
However, at this moment, the Bu Family Patriarch glanced at him and directly said, "If it were as easy as you think, there would have been no need to build the Great Wall of Heaven in ancient times."
Hong Wuji's expression stiffened upon hearing this, as if he had also realized something, and he immediately closed his mouth and said no more.
The Bu Family Patriarch didn't say much but looked at the crowd and said in a deep voice, "The situation is not as simple as everyone thinks. The strength of the alien race army is very formidable!"
"Now the other side has only sent out a vanguard team to take the lead. Apart from those thousands of Foundation Establishment Realm and Martial King Realm soldiers, their high-end forces include two hundred in the Golden Core Realm and approximately fifty Great Powers of the Yin-Yang Realm!"
"This is only because the Gate of Whirlpool temporarily cannot allow so many strong warriors to pass through; hence, they sent out this number of people."
"Moreover, more powerful beings will continue to come through the Gate of Whirlpool. According to the people of the Northwest's calculations on the Great Wall of Heaven, the maximum number of Great Powers of the Yin-Yang Realm that the Gate of Whirlpool can admit is up to eighty!"
The Bu Family Patriarch informed everyone about the situation of the Demon Horn Tribe Army outside the Great Wall of Heaven, which was reported by people from the Northwest Little Mountain Village.
The gathered Hall Master-level powerhouses all changed their expressions at this — two hundred in the Golden Core Realm and nearly fifty Great Powers of the Yin-Yang Realm?
The number of Golden Core Realm warriors was actually not that concerning — if all the forces gathered their Golden Core Realm Great Masters, they would also have a number ranging from two to over three hundred.
But the Great Powers of the Yin-Yang Realm, in the entire Outer Battlefield, the Yin-Yang Realm Great Powers from the Four Great Powers only added up to about thirty.
Naturally, that's the official count; the actual total number from all the powers combined is unclear. However, according to what the Bu Family Patriarch said, if the alien race army really brought eighty Great Powers of the Yin-Yang Realm, then that would truly be troublesome!
"How many Great Powers of the Yin-Yang Realm are there from the People of the Northwest at the Great Wall of Heaven?"
Fourth Hall Master Hong Wuji directly asked.

Everyone knew about the People of the Northwest — they were actually the warriors from the Northwest Little Mountain Village. Everyone knew that the warriors from the Northwest Little Mountain Village were the ones defending the Great Wall of Heaven and more or less understood the reasons behind it.
They also knew that the warriors from the Northwest Little Mountain Village were numerous and each was extremely powerful. However, nobody was concerned that the presence of the people from the Northwest Little Mountain Village would pose a threat to them.
The people from the Northwest Little Mountain Village were born to defend the Great Wall of Heaven and had no intention of competing for interests with the Great Powers. As long as one did not provoke the people from the Northwest Little Mountain Village, there wasn't much concern.
"It's not clear in detail. According to what they said themselves, there are about twenty."
The Bu Family Patriarch explained further, relaying the message received from the Great Wall of Heaven.
Twenty Great Powers of the Yin-Yang Realm!
Everyone was also shocked and marveled at the strength of the People of the Northwest.
The several Great Powers of the Yin-Yang Realm then started discussing the upcoming situation.
Time passed, and another day went by.
This day, the hearts of those in the Outer Battlefield were filled with trepidation, the Great Powers had already begun to enter a state of preparation for war, and everyone had become aware of the situation at the Great Wall of Heaven, with only a month's time remaining.
The news had also slowly begun to reach Earth, though it was still confined to the main figures of the Great Powers and the major families.
Earth, Xuanyuan Nation Utility Pavilion.
"The alien race army has already invaded, and there's only one month left to prepare!?"
Grand Sect Leader Zhao Gongming froze in shock, his face filled with disbelief.
Standing in front of him was none other than Zhuge Wuming!
Zhuge Wuming's expression was also very solemn; he had just received the news from personnel returning from the Outer Battlefield and immediately ordered to prevent its spread, choosing first to inform Zhao Gongming.
"Seal the news, seal all the news!"
Zhao Gongming regained his composure and immediately said, his eyes conveying a sense of urgency.
Seeing this, Zhuge Wuming replied at once, "Don't panic, I've already given the orders. No need to worry."
Of course, he wasn't a fool; this news couldn't yet be disclosed to everyone on Earth. If it suddenly reached the ears of the general populace, it would result in complete chaos.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Gongming breathed a sigh of relief and his face remained grave: "I hadn't expected the alien race army to come so suddenly. Wasn't it said that the Outer Battlefield and the legendary Great Wall of Heaven could still hold out for a few more years?"
He was aware of the existence of the Great Wall of Heaven and knew that the situation there was extremely tense, but the information he had indicated that the Great Wall of Heaven could last another three years. Yet now, things had drastically moved forward.
Zhuge Wuming looked out the window with a worried gaze, "Indeed, it's too soon..."
