Chapter 526 I agree
Fang Lijuan stood in a room with a magic array above her head. A few minutes later, a few projections appeared in the room.
“I’m glad you accept my invitation,” she said.
“What is your purpose? Be blunt,” said Huang Yuan.
“You are all intelligent people, so you should guess my purpose: an alliance,” said Fang Lijuan. “These 6 are currently too powerful–especially Wang Wei–and might remain so until the Heaven Will Battle.
“So, we must band together and get rid of them first before we fight amongst ourselves.”
“Hmph, I don’t need anyone else’s help to defeat these people.”
“Is that so? Do you think having an innate treasure with outlaw Daos makes you a big shot?” commented Sun Jiaolong. “Without that book, you are essentially useless.”
“Are you the one talking? Are you even worthy of being called a Heaven Chosen without your sword?” Huang Yuan snapped back. “You weren’t even present for the secret realm, and something tells me it’s because you were too scared.”
Sun Jiaolong sneered but did not say anything more. It was a calculated move not to participate in this secret realm. He figured his chances were low acquiring the inheritance. And even if he did succeed, he would not be able to keep it.
The other powerful Emperor Lineages would pressure him and his dynasty to hand it over. And with the Great Wu Dynasty’s weakness, he does not believe they could withstand the pressure.
“Now that all the men have finished showing their ego, let’s talk about the alliance,” said Mo Xingyun. “I think it’s a great idea, but we can do more.”
“What do you have in mind?” asked Fang Lijuan.
“We can invite the other 5 except for Wang Wei; he’s the real threat.”
“That’s pointless. I know Tong Ruobing; she would never accept the invitation,” said Chen Chen.
“Not now, but not necessarily after the second round.”
“What do you mean? Be direct,” said Fang Lijuan while looking at Mo Xingyun, who smiled cunningly.
“I can honestly tell you once Wang Wei reaches his peak strength, he will be able to slaughter all of us in a few minutes. And not just him, Di Tian is the same as well.”
The others frowned.
“Aren’t you being a little dramatic? There is no way the gap is this big,” asked Huang Yuan.
“Have any of you heard of the Nine Extremities Foundation?”
They looked at each other before shaking their head. Then, Mo Xingyun explained what it was, making the expression of the others very ugly. Then, they returned to normal.
“I know what you’re thinking, but it’s futile. Even if you were to try to walk the same path as Wang Wei, you would fail. Anyway, I know you will try anyway.”
When Mo Xingyun learned about this information, she also wanted to walk on the path of establishing this supreme foundation, but she did not meet the requirement and failed. And it was not because of the enormous amount of resources required.
“Back to the main topic,” said Chen Chen. “What do you mean the others will join us?”
“After they experienced the horror of Wang Wei’s strength, a few of them should be susceptible to the idea of an alliance.”
“Your plan is feasible, and we can draw other people into our alliances,” said Fang Lijuan. “But if Wang Wei and Di Tian are so powerful, does it make sense to unite?”
“Yes, more than ever,” added Mo Xingyun. “We will use tactics, underhanded methods, and large numbers to wear out these two before killing or taking their powers.”
“Wang Wei has Li Jun and other Generals to protect him. And I’m assuming it is the same for Di Tian. So, these tactics might not work on them,” said Chen Chen.
“Then we need to unite our Generals to quickly take out theirs before we get to them,” commented Sun Jiaolong. The group became quiet, pondering the feasibility of this alliance.
Although it looked good on the surface, there are bound to be many issues, mostly involving the class of their egos. Nevertheless, this might be the only option they have for now.
“How about we take some time before making a decision?” said Huang Yuan. Then, they all looked at each other before nodding and ending the Communication Array.
Western Continent:
Mo Xingyun smiled after everything ended; she could guess these people wanted to test the Nine Extremities Foundation. It’s a shame they will be disappointed.
As expected, almost a month later, they regrouped for another discussion.
“So, have you tried?” asked Mo Xingyun, and no one responded to her.
“Can you tell us what we are missing?” asked Chen Chen. “You can name your price.”
“Are you sure you want to know? It won’t change anything?” After seeing the determination in these people’s eyes, she smiled before telling them her price.
“A bit expensive,” muttered Huang Yuan.
“I know your Divine Dao League is poor, so you can owe me a favor instead,” said Mo Xingyun, making Fang Lijuan grit her teeth.
“No need. I can still afford such a price.”
Mo Xingyun shrugged her shoulder before sending the group a Soul Contract with her signature. And after they all signed, she told him the reason for their failure.
Sun Jiaolong sighed, “Is the difference between us so great?”
“Now you understand,” added Mo Xingyun. “Of course, you guys could still walk the orthodox path like Di Tian.”
Everyone sneered. Who wants to keep reincarnating while suffering countless trials and tribulations?
“How do you know so much?” asked Fang Lijuan.
“You don’t need to know that. Now, what about our alliance? Any decision.”
“I agree,” said Chen Chen, without hesitation. He remembered the humiliation he suffered at Xu Shi’s hands in front of the secret realm; he did not want to feel so weak and powerless again.
“I agree,” Sun Jiaolong said. Wang Wei took the Human Destiny Sword from him, ruining a lot of his plan and drastically weakening him. Although the Demon Destiny Sword has made up for some of his losses, it was not enough. Furthermore, he has not discovered the sea race’s destiny sword.
“I agree,” said Huang Yuan while clutching his hand. All his life, he has been undefeated, suppressing anyone who stood in his way to the top. However, after coming to the Myriad Emperor World, he has suffered defeats after defeats.
Although he had adjusted his mindset years ago, sometimes, he could not help but wonder whether it would be best to remain an overlord in the lower realm than suffer this kind of humiliation at the hands of the younger generation. Nevertheless, Huang Yuan did not regret his decision; he did not want to be a phoenix amongst a group of chickens.
“I agree,” said Fang Lijuan, the person with the least emotional change after this decision since she facilitated this alliance. Over the years, she had to learn to control her pride and not be influenced by her bloodline or the false glory of the Divine Dao League.
So, no matter the method used, she must prove the Dao.
“I also agree,” said Mo Xingyun with her usual charming smile that seems like she’s always scamming somebody. Despite her calm demeanor, she feared that some of these people would be scared by her information and decide to seal themselves and compete with another generation.
Luckily, these people know that this Glorious Age is a time full of destiny, granting them the highest chance of becoming an Eternal Emperor. In any other generation, they have to rely entirely on their natural talent. Unfortunately, no one here can confidently say they could accomplish such a feat.
“If we want to form an alliance, we must hide from Wang Wei for a while.”
“His Fate Reading Ability is really annoying,” said Sun Jiaolong. “However, he will learn of this alliance eventually.”
“Most likely, but the longer we can hide from him, the more advantageous the situation is for us,” said Mo Xingyun. “Plus, we also need to guard against his Fate Shadow Guards. These pesky things seemed to have amazing infiltrating abilities.”
“Do you know something we don’t?” asked Fang Lijuan.
“I know a lot of things you don’t. For example, Di Tian’s Sleepers are even more elite than Wang Wei’s Fate Shadow Guard. So, I will sell you guys some method to prevent them from infiltrating your armies and General.
“Army and General? Wait, does that mean these two have already infiltrated our factions?” asked Sun Jiaolong.
“What do you think?”
“So, you’ll help keep our armies pure, but not our faction?”
“It’s too risky if you guys started to clean up your factions. Wang Wei would notice something wrong. Plus, my methods do not guarantee you can find all their spies.”
Everyone in this room was intelligent, so they quickly caught into something. In these short two meetings, Mo Xingyun managed to shift the power balance of the entire alliance in her favor.
Without them even realizing it, she became the de facto leader, and there seems to be nothing they can do to change that fact.
“Do we need a name for our alliance?” asked Mo Xingyun, who could guess what these people were thinking.
“I say we call it the Suppressing Fate Alliance.”
“How does the name make sense if we target Di Tian and Wang Wei?”
“I like the name; plus, I feel he is more of a threat.”
The others looked at each other before nodding in agreement. In the current stages of the alliance, Mo Xingyun had the advantage. So, it’s no problem to bend to her when it comes to minor things such as this.
Chrono Chaos Realm:
Wang Wei opened his eyes before muttering: “The month is already approaching?”
He then looked at all the crystals before him with a smile. He raised his head to look at the 360 [Future Budda Self], and his smile became more radiant.
“Are you done?” asked Wang Wucheng.
“Yes. We can leave. But can I come back to cultivate?”
“Bring back the Deceiving Heaven Longevity Art, and you can do whatever you want.”
Wang Wei smiled, “Don’t go back on your words.”
Then, the two, no, three, left this eerie place. And as soon as Wang Wei arrived outside, he received a communication talisman from Shadow Two about the battle in front of the secret realm.
