The battle at Tianshui had attracted the attention of the world.
Against the remnants of the Zhongli Sword Sect, not only did the alliance fail to fulfill its promise of capturing and killing the Yun family, even Elder Mo Yundi was killed.
This caused the hearts of the people to waver, and the Martial Alliance's prestige was greatly damaged.
Ever since the World Martial Arts Tournament was successfully held twenty years ago, with a group of Soul Conduit experts heading to the upper realm, these experts were enviable, but it also weakened the Martial Alliance's strength.
The top powers and upper echelons were all taken away at once. Even Red Tail did not stay for long, and could only be remotely controlled through reincarnation. The alliance fell into chaos for a period of time.
And when the few large factions regained control of the situation, the alliance could no longer return to its former state.
Without Red Tail's voice that suppressed everything, it was inevitable that there would be internal strife. Hence, compared to twenty years ago, the alliance's control was actually much weaker.
And the incident at Tianshui seemed to have become a fuse. The Martial Alliance that seemed to be at its zenith seemed to be in a precarious situation overnight.
But at this critical juncture, the alliance made a decision that surprised countless people.
It forbade anyone from discussing anything related to "Goddess Zhongli". Even verbally mentioning her would be seen as treason!
With this order, the world's warriors were in an uproar.
Some people said that the Martial Alliance had lost its mind. If someone disobeyed the alliance's rules, then they should think of ways to kill her. Who would order their own people to shut up?
There were also people who said that there were vile people causing trouble within the alliance. If not, with the alliance's original intentions, there would not be such a literary inquisition.
But most people saw the collapse of a great building. They saw the weakness behind the behemoth …
…
"Alliance Leader Qin, please reconsider! With this order, it is no different from destroying the Great Wall … "
"That's right. If the Alliance Leader wants to take that Goddess Zhongli's life, us old fogeys can just pay a visit. Why is there a need to issue a gag order?"
"Alliance Leader, please take back the order!"
Martial Alliance City. In the Martial Alliance headquarters, a group of white-haired old men were surrounding a middle-aged man in discussion.
These people were the pillars of the Martial Alliance. They were Soul Conduit realm grandmasters, but due to their old age, they did not go to the upper realm.
And the person they surrounded was the current Alliance Leader of the Martial Alliance, who was also the Venerable Heaven Sect's Sect Leader, Qin Yuezhi.
Qin Yuezhi had a bitter smile on his face as he persuaded these old men one by one.
He was the direct disciple of the previous Venerate Heaven Sect Master. Although he was powerful and talented, his seniority was not high. These people in front of him were his seniors.
Now that they had come knocking on his door because of his "random orders", Qin Yuezhi really couldn't just chase them all out.
After much persuasion, he finally persuaded the group of ancestors to return. Only then did Qin Yuezhi heave a sigh of relief. At the same time, a figure in red appeared in front of him.
Qin Yuezhi didn't dare to be negligent. He hastily saluted and said, "Milord."
Even though he was the Alliance Leader of the Martial Alliance, Qin Yuezhi did not dare show any disrespect to the person in front of him. This was because she was the one who established the Martial Alliance!
Red Tail nodded lightly and said, "Continue to target Yun Tianyang. This time, send a Spirit Realm warrior to hold the line."
"Yes." Qin Yue nodded, but then said, "Milord, as the saying goes, even a lion uses its full strength to catch a rabbit. That Yun Tianyang is only one step away from the Soul Conduit realm, what if …"
Red Tail smiled and said, "I just want to see if there is such a possibility."
…
Two months after the muting order was issued, the Martial Alliance's Elder, Soul Conduit warrior, Li Jin, personally came to the northwest region. He was ordered to capture Yun Tianyang and his disciple.
Li Jin was a person with extremely high martial talent, having entered the Soul Conduit realm at the age of forty. However, he was a cold and ruthless person, and he was also greedy and lustful. His arrival could be considered a calamity in the northwest region.
In a short span of half a month, countless family clans in the northwest region were wiped out. Large numbers of innocent people died, but in exchange, Li Jin's family received ten thousand taels of gold, as well as a house full of beautiful wives and concubines.
The entire Western Region was in a state of apprehension. The muting order became even more prevalent, to the point where one could see the road ahead.
The Martial Alliance's reputation in the northwest region fell once again. While many people hated Li Jin, they also hated the Martial Alliance.
Finally, on the third month after Li Jin arrived in the northwest region, something major happened. Yun Tianyang and six companions had secretly infiltrated Li Jin's residence and killed him in one fell swoop!
A martial arts grandmaster at the Soul Conduit realm had died in his own residence. When this news spread, it immediately attracted the attention of the world.
The next day, Yun Tianyang led a group of people from the pugilistic world to attack the northwest's capital, Large City. He had opened the curtains of a military resistance against the Martial Alliance.
And in this battle, Yun Tianyang had demonstrated the strength of a Soul Conduit realm warrior. He was a warrior at the true Grandmaster realm.
Even his six companions had demonstrated impressive strength. Nearly all of them were not far from the Soul Conduit realm, and they had the bearing of a young hero.
Some busybodies even gave them the name of "Northwest Seven Tigers", and they were instantly in the limelight.
…
"I personally watched Yun Tianyang's battle with Li Jin. He broke through at the last moment." Red Tail reported what she had seen dutifully.
"Is he also a child of providence?" Gu Nan asked.
"No." Red Tail shook her head. "There is providence lingering around him, but it seems more like it comes from the outside world … It was A Xiu's excess providence that was distributed to him."
Gu Nan could not help but laugh. He never expected A Xiu's providence to be so rich that it was enough to be distributed to others.
Red Tail added, "A Xiu is still short of a breakthrough, so after they take down Large City, they plan on developing in peace for a period of time."
"How can we let them have peace?" Gu Nan curled his lips and smiled. "We have to give the children some pressure … I'll go there myself."
…
Large City.
Yun Tianyang, who was known as the leader of the "Northwest Seven Tigers", was leisurely practicing his fists in the yard. And there were six other young men and women in the yard.
"Boss Yun, when are we going to storm Martial Alliance City?!"
"That's right! Old Yun, just one word from you and we will definitely go through fire and water! "
"I'm talking about the two of you." A woman beside them said helplessly, "You are all famous figures in the pugilistic world. Can't you be more particular!"
The person who had spoken earlier was a bald man. He rubbed his bald head and said, "I, Mo Wen Tian, am such a person. If I want to learn from those big shots to put on airs, I will never be able to do it!"
Hearing his companions bicker, Yun Tianyang slowly retracted his fist force and said helplessly, "Don't be anxious. My master is in reclusive training again. We also need some time to recuperate."
"And my master said …" Yun Tianyang paused for a moment before saying, "We should not underestimate the Martial Alliance. There might be enemies in there that she cannot deal with."
The other six were stunned when they heard this. They knew how strong Yun Tianyang's master, the woman known as Goddess Zhongli, was.
"Boss Yun, if you were to fight your master now, would you be able to beat her?" The person who spoke first asked cautiously.
Yun Tianyang gave a wry smile and replied without any hesitation, "I can't even take one strike from my master … The stronger I am, the more I feel that my master's realm is unattainable."
Mo Wentian smacked himself in the head with a "pa" sound and exclaimed, "Doesn't that mean that the Martial Alliance also has such a super expert!?"
"Yes." Yun Tianyang nodded. "Master told me that if I see a silver-robed, silver-masked person, I should run as far as I can."
At this moment, a manservant ran in and said loudly, "Sirs, there is someone outside requesting an audience!"
"Who is it?"
