Old scoundrel, always trying to plot against others, did you finally meet your match this time?

The Divine Phoenix woman saw Elder Jin's awkward state and secretly laughed in her heart, but said out loud, "Xiao Mu's suggestion makes sense. Why not call Gu Mei, Xu Lang, Chen Ming, and Qin Gui over and search their divine senses to see if Xiao Mu has passed the secret to them?"

"Rest assured, Elder Jin, I'll use the Human Emperor Seal to assist in searching the divine senses so that Gu Mei, Xu Lang, Chen Ming, and Qin Gui will not be harmed."

Kid, you've got guts!

Elder Jin glared fiercely at Xiao Mu, cursing silently. If the Divine Phoenix woman really searched the divine senses of Gu Mei, Chen Ming, and others, his secret plots against Xiao Mu would immediately be exposed to everyone.

As the head of the eight Grand Elders of the Alliance, if it were known that he was only self-serving, scheming just to keep the reward for cultivating in the Human Emperor Tower in his own hands, his prestige would be ruined.

He quickly said, "I don't think it's necessary. Since Xiao Mu claims he told Chen Ming, Xu Lang, and Gu Mei in advance about the reward, it must be true. Searching their divine senses over such a small matter is making a fuss over nothing."

This was the first time the Divine Phoenix woman had seen Jin Yuan so embarrassed. She was secretly pleased, but outwardly said, "I think Elder Jin's agreement seems a bit forced. Why not go ahead and search?"

"No need, really, no need!"

Jin Yuan was anxious and quickly waved his hand, "Divine Phoenix woman, there's truly no need to make a mountain out of a molehill. I believe what Xiao Mu says."

"Doesn't Elder Jin think it's unfair to Xu Lang, Chen Ming, and the others?" the Divine Phoenix woman asked again.

"How could it be?" Jin Yuan replied, "Since everyone knows the first merit reward is to cultivate in the Human Emperor Tower, how can there be talk of unfairness?"

"Since Elder Jin feels the search of divine senses is unnecessary, I won't insist," the Divine Phoenix woman nodded, but her tone grew serious, "However, please remember, Elder Jin, if anyone spreads rumors of unfairness in private, I will pursue it seriously."

"No, no, of course not, of course not," Jin Yuan hurriedly agreed, quite embarrassed.

He wouldn't normally be so afraid of the Divine Phoenix woman, but unfortunately, she caught him red-handed this time.

"Regarding the cultivation reward in the Human Emperor Tower."

The Divine Phoenix woman changed the topic, not wanting to continue pursuing Jin Yuan's responsibility. After all, for someone of this old scoundrel's status and position, even if he plotted against Xiao Mu, it couldn't bring him down.

Therefore, the Divine Phoenix woman straightforwardly changed the subject, "Regarding the reward of cultivating in the Human Emperor Tower, Xiao Xiao, you said that as long as you can enter the Human Emperor Tower for cultivation, you could reach the mid-stage of the True God Realm?"

"Wait a moment!" The second Grand Elder, Qi Gu, suddenly spoke, "The cultivation reward for the Human Emperor Tower can only be obtained with the first merit, and Xiao Mu is not the first merit yet."

"Divine Phoenix woman, telling Xiao Mu about the first merit reward now—isn't it a bit premature?"

I have just left seclusion, and these old scoundrels want to cause me trouble, do they think I can't suppress them anymore?

Unhappy inside, the Divine Phoenix woman glanced at Qi Gu without showing it, "Elder Qi, what do you mean by that?"

Qi Gu, not afraid, said, "Of course, after comparison and confirming the first merit, the reward can be granted. Chen Ming, Xu Lang, Gu Mei, Qin Gui, and Huang Yuan have already come out of the Creation Space, haven't they? Call them over, check the Merit Record, and everything will be clear."

The Divine Phoenix woman couldn't help but look at Xiao Mu when she heard this.

"Heh!"

Xiao Mu, clearly feeling targeted, couldn't help but sneer, "Elder Qi wants to compare merits? Whether we compare or not, I am still the first merit, but how could you rest easy if we don't compare? You want to compare merits? Fine, call the others over and see if anyone's merit can surpass mine."

Xiao Mu didn't care about comparing merits. Not to mention he once pursued and killed a large group of Variants from the Heavenly Court, just the fact that he personally killed four strong beings at the True God Level meant that no one could compete with him in merit.

Killing one Divine Spirit is one merit point, killing a being at the early stage of the True God Realm is five merit points, but killing a strong being at the True God Level gives fifty merit points.

This means that even without counting the merits of killing other True God Realm and Divine Spirit Realm beings, just the fact that Xiao Mu killed four strong beings at the True God Level gives him two hundred merit points.

This means Chen Ming, Qin Gui, and the others would need to kill at least forty beings at the True God Realm to match him.

However, how many strong beings at the True God Realm from the Heavenly Court entered the Creation Space? Altogether, it might not even be possible to gather forty people.

"I'll go call them."

Fei Xuan, ranked fourth among the eight Grand Elders, suddenly spoke up. Without waiting for the Divine Phoenix woman or Jin Yuan to agree, he directly flew up, riding a cloud to fetch the Variants from the Human world who came out of the Creation Space.

"Old scoundrel has another scheme, Old Zhou, from what I understand of these old scoundrels, to prevent the first merit from falling into Xiao Mu's hands, they probably have another dirty scheme—letting their people transfer all merits to one person to compete with Xiao Mu. Old Zhou, why don't you go over and supervise Fei Xuan."

Seeing Fei Xuan fly away, the Divine Phoenix woman immediately guessed something and used her divine sense to transmit the message to Zhou Xuanmen.

She didn't move her mouth or body; her divine sense transformed into words, directly contacting Zhou Xuanmen's divine sense to convey her intention.
