"If only Lin Yi bro was here, he'd have a way," Ziyu said suddenly.
"That's for sure- with Boss Lin Yi's strength, that Xue Jianfeng isn't even worthy of carrying his shoes, and he's acting all high and mighty, asking sis-in-law Lingshan to come with him- he's just asking to die," Kang Xiaobo said angrily.
"But we don't have a way to contact Lin Yi boss right now- even if we wanted to write him a letter, we wouldn't be able to get him to come back," Chentian smiled bitterly.
"Water from afar can't quench thirst right now- we can only rely on ourselves for this. Right, we need to tell Senior Lin Dongfang as well- maybe he'll have a way?" Qikun slapped his forehead.
"Right, right!" Everyone nodded- Lin Dongfang's performance last time had left a deep impression on them, dealing with a couple of Sky class full mastery was like child's play to him. Maybe he'd have a way to deal with this as well!
"Also, sis-in-law Lingshan, the spirit practitioner you mentioned just now- it sounds like the Archaic Alliance came up with an excuse, but if it's true, we might be able to do something about it," Chentian said thoughtfully.
"What do you mean?" Lingshan didn't understand, and the others looked confused as well.
"Think about it- this Archaic Alliance is coming at us aggressively, and with our strength in the common world, we have no way to fight back at all. Even if they have a rule that says they can't disturb the order of the common world, rules are dead, and people are alive. As long as one of them wants to disturb the common world, they can just find an excuse to do so easily. That Xue Jianfeng is the one doing it, isn't he?"
Chentian said. "That's right- it's obvious that he's using this as an excuse," Lingshan nodded.
Using the fact that two disciples of the Archaic Alliance had died as an excuse to barge into the Supernatural Investigation Bureau. Not only did he force the secular world to investigate, he even took the opportunity to suggest recruiting disciples with outstanding aptitudes from the secular world. He even wanted Xue Jianfeng to leave with him. It could be seen that Xue Jianfeng's focus wasn't on this primordial spirit cultivator. This was purely an excuse.
"So, looking at the big picture, it's not just us, but all the practitioners in the common world are faced with two choices. One is to submit to the Archaic Alliance's tyranny and do whatever they say," Chentian analyzed.
"Isn't that too infuriating?" Lingshan and the others frowned- they weren't as strong as them, but this was the common world- what right did the Archaic Alliance have to call the shots here?
"That's right, it's infuriating- if there's pressure, there'll be resistance. It'd be fine if the Archaic Alliance chose to go easy on us, but if they find an excuse to force things, I'm sure most of the powers in the common world won't be satisfied, especially the ancient sects and noble houses." Yu Bing nodded.
It wasn't hard to understand- it was better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix. These people used to be the masters of the common world, but suddenly they had to bend their knees and listen to someone else's orders. This wasn't something they could get used to in a short amount of time.
Unless the Archaic Alliance went all out and massacred all the powers in the common world- that was the only way they'd be able to intimidate everyone. Fortunately, there weren't any signs of that happening yet.
"Then we only have the second option- of course, we don't have the strength to do that, so we can only try our best to work with them on an equal footing instead of obeying them without any principles." Chentian sighed.
"Equal footing? Is that even possible? " Everyone couldn't help but look at each other in dismay. The premise of an equal cooperation was that both sides had to be on the same level. Although there were many cultivation powers in the mortal world, and all of them added together could be considered huge, they paled in comparison to the Archaic Alliance. There was practically no comparison.
"It doesn't sound very reliable, but it's not impossible if you think about it. Think about it, if the Supernatural Investigation Bureau were to unite all the powers in the common world, everyone would be on the same side. Even the Archaic Alliance wouldn't be able to let their guard down, right?" Chentian said. "That's right.
"That's a good suggestion. Usually, it's not very practical to unite all the powers, but this is a special situation- the Occult Investigation Department might be able to take the lead," Yu Bing agreed.
"Alright, I'll discuss this with Chief Feng. We'll do it as soon as possible." Lingshan nodded, but was still a little worried. "But even so, our individual strength is still too far away from the Archaic Alliance. It'll be hard for us to fight for the right to speak, right?"
After all, strength determined the right to speak. Being strong in the common world- they could at most guarantee a chance to talk, but when it came to specific matters, their individual strength wouldn't have the right to speak, and they'd still be at a disadvantage.
To put it bluntly, a group of kids wouldn't be able to change their weak position in front of the adults. Even if they fought on the spot, they'd only get beaten up. Even if they fought for a chance to talk, they'd still be led by the nose by the adults.
"What if that primordial spirit practitioner is one of us?" Chentian asked.
Everyone froze at the words, only reacting after a long while. Yu Bing clapped his hands. "Old Wu, you're good! Not bad, not bad! If that primordial spirit practitioner really exists, then he's definitely not from the Archaic Alliance. He's very likely a part of the common world- it's just that we've never paid attention to him before. Plus, he has a grudge with the Archaic Alliance, so it shouldn't be too hard to get him on our side."
"Since this primordial spirit practitioner can kill two of them, he must be very strong. I'm sure he'll be a threat even to them. That'll make things easier!" Qikun nodded.
This was like a group of children suddenly appearing out of nowhere and being able to beat up the adults. Even if the adults still had the advantage, at least they wouldn't dare to be as unscrupulous as before. After all, if they really forced the other party into a corner, they would flip the table and get beaten up.
"You're right- even if we can't find this primordial spirit practitioner, we still have Senior Lin Dongfang. At least we'll be able to hold the fort." Kang Xiaobo added.
