Chapter 180 - 180 The Debate in the Elder Hall
180 The Debate in the Elder Hall
When Dorgan saw Su Ming, he immediately stood up from his seat and quickly explained,
“Great Prophet, we’re discussing the current development formation of the Elf Valley.”
“Some of us now think that the Elf Valley is developing rapidly enough and that we should stop for a while.”
“But the other group of people think that we should continue to expand outward.”
Su Ming cast him a glance but did not show much of a reaction. When he met Zelda’s gaze, he saw a faint hint of helplessness in her eyes. When she saw Su Ming looking at her, she could not help but shake her head slightly.
Su Ming averted his gaze and ignored all the elders in the hall. Instead, he walked straight to the main seat in the Elder Hall and sat down.
The main seat in the Elder Hall had been set up for him, the Great Prophet.
Once he sat down, Su Ming swept his gaze across the crowd before he spoke to the only person standing, Dorgan.
“Take a seat, Elder Dorgan.”
Dorgan opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but when he met Su Ming’s gaze, he quickly sat down.
Once Su Ming saw him sit down, he said slowly, “Elder Dorgan, you just said that you’re divided into two different camps for the future development of the Elf Valley?”
Dorgan immediately nodded.
Su Ming cast him a glance, then paused for a moment before he asked, “What about you?”
After hearing this question, Dorgan was stunned.
When the other people in the hall heard this question, they could not help but look at each other. Someone realized something, and his expression changed as he subconsciously looked at Dorgan.
Dorgan’s expression also changed slightly when everyone looked at him.
After a long while, he said, “Great Prophet, what do you mean?”
Su Ming met his gaze with a calm expression. His tone was also very indifferent.
“What I mean is, since you’ve said so much just now, and you also said that there will be a conflict between two different camps.”
“I’m very curious now. What’s your attitude toward this matter?”
When he heard that, Dorgan first cast a glance at Su Ming, and there was a slightly hesitant look on his face.
However, when he saw Su Ming’s eyes staring at him, Dorgan knew that he could no longer avoid the question he was going to face today.
After a bitter smile, Dorgan slowly said, “Great Prophet, since you have experienced what happened before, you should also understand that the crazy expansion of the Mount Tai Tribe was inseparable from me.”
When Su Ming heard that, he nodded his head faintly.
Seeing this, Dorgan continued, “The reason why we expanded so crazily at that time was partly because of the capital and confidence that Mount Tai showed me, which made me choose to believe him.
“At the same time, I also believe that expanding outward is indeed a way to let the people in the tribe live a better life.”
After a short pause, Dorgan’s expression became a little bitter.
“But I’m sure you know what the final result is.
“Not only did we fail to let the people in the tribe live a better life, but we also provoked many enemies we can’t afford to provoke.
“Fortunately, you appeared in the end, Great Prophet, and saved us from the crisis of extinction.
“Therefore, in the Mount Tai Tribe, we all have the same opinion on expanding outward.”
Dorgan’s gaze turned slightly and swept across the other Elves in the field.
“Our tribe will not agree to expand.”
When Su Ming heard that, he first cast an indifferent glance at Dorgan, then looked at the other elders of Mount Tai Tribe who were sitting in the same row as him.
“Do you all have the same thoughts?”
The elders looked at each other for a while, then turned their heads to look at Su Ming and nodded.
When Su Ming saw their reaction, he also nodded his head slightly.
“If that’s the case, I roughly understand.”
“But this is not something you can decide,” Su Ming continued after a slight pause.
Dorgan’s expression changed.
The expressions of the other Elf elders of the Mount Tai Tribe also changed slightly, and the way they looked at Su Ming also changed.
Light, discontented swishing sounds quickly rang out in the arena.
“Does the Great Prophet want to be a dictator?” He asked.
“That’s right. His current appearance reminds me of Mount Tai. It’s a little scary!”
“That’s right. Is it a wrong decision to join the Elf Valley?”
As the people in the field spoke, they were also sizing up Su Ming. Their expressions were also rather unpleasant.
However, Su Ming’s next words caused their expressions to change again.
“At the same time, this matter is not something I can decide.”
Dorgan and the people of the Mount Tai Tribe suddenly became a little confused. After looking at each other, Dorgan could not help but ask, “Great Prophet, what do you mean? If even you can’t make this decision, I’m afraid no one else in the Elf Valley has the right to make it.”
Although the other elders did not speak, their expressions clearly showed that they had the same thoughts as Dorgan.
After all, they had pretty much come to understand just how awe-inspiring Su Ming was in the Elf Valley.
It could be said that Su Ming was an existence who stood by his words in the Elf Valley.
This was not to say that he was a tyrant or dictator, but that his prestige was too high.
As long as he put forward an idea, no one would object.
After all, the countless precedents in the past could prove that Su Ming’s decisions were never wrong.
Under such circumstances, no one would raise any so-called doubts about Su Ming!
This was also the reason why the sect elders were puzzled and did not believe Su Ming when they heard that he could not decide on this matter.
When Su Ming saw their reactions, he only cast them an indifferent glance.
“Dictator? I’ve never wanted to become that kind of person.”
“The reason why the Elf Valley needs to expand is also decided by all the members of the Elf Valley and all the allies.”
After a slight pause, Su Ming’s gaze swept across the people in the field.
