(First update!)
Jian Wushuang and Gu Mo both had their own thoughts. However, they had yet to shed all pretense of cordiality. Hence, it was inevitable for them to exchange greetings when they met.
"Alliance Master Su Han, this way please."
Gu Mo led Jian Wushuang into the Corpse Palace and soon arrived at a big hall.
The big hall was dazzling with long tables placed on both sides. In the middle of the hall, close to a hundred beautiful dancers were dancing gracefully and gracefully. It was a moving scene.
After Jian Wushuang and Gu Mo stepped into the hall, the dancers did not stop. However, a middle-aged man in a long robe and a woman in green stood up from the tables on both sides.
"Alliance Master Su Han," the middle-aged man in the long robe greeted.
"Greetings, Alliance Master Su Han," the woman in green appeared to be rather humble.
"Oh, Mr. Sheng Long and the Purple Dress House Master. Both of you are here too?" Jian Wushuang glanced at the two of them and was not surprised at all.
He knew that this banquet was not ordinary. Not only the Corpse Palace, but the Divine Dragon Pavilion and the Purple Dress House would also be present.
"Since Palace Master Gu Mo invited us personally, both of us will not decline," the woman in green, the Purple Dress House Master said.
"Haha, everyone, please take a seat." Gu Mo sat down in front of the long table at the top and waved his hand as he laughed.
Jian Wushuang and the other two then sat down in their respective seats.
"It's rare for the three of you to gather at the Corpse Palace. Come, let me give you a toast," Gu Mo raised the wine cup in his hand and said with a smile.
Jian Wushuang, Sheng Long, and the Purple Dress House Master raised their cups and drank together.
After downing the wine, Gu Mo wiped the corner of his mouth and said seriously, "The three of you, actually, I invited you here for one thing."
Jian Wushuang, Sheng Long, and the Purple Dress House Master immediately looked at Gu Mo.
"I'd like to see what Gu Mo wants to do." Jian Wushuang secretly sneered.
"The three of you should know that the Danyang Continent is too big. It can be said to be boundless. Moreover, there are countless sects, powerful forces, and clans on this continent. Let's not talk about the top five forces, there are many first-rate and second-rate forces on the Danyang Continent. As for third-rate forces like us, there are even more," Gu Mo said in a clear voice.
Jian Wushuang's expression did not change.
However, Sheng Long and the Purple Dress House Master frowned.
They looked for Gu to invite him to attend the banquet because they wanted to solve the Sword Alliance's problems.
He wanted to find out if there was a powerful force behind the Sword Alliance and what the Sword Alliance Master's motive was.
It could be said that the banquet was to attend. Jian Wushuang to the Danyang of the Danyang Continent.
However, Gu Mo mentioned the situation in the Danyang Continent as soon as he opened his mouth. This made Sheng Long and the Purple Dress House Master feel strange.
However, Gu Mo continued, "The situation in the Danyang Continent is too complicated. The battle between the various forces is also extremely crazy. In such a crazy battle, third-rate forces like the Corpse Palace, the Sword Alliance, the Divine Dragon Pavilion, and the Purple Dress House are like lonely boats drifting in the storm all year round. They're extremely fragile and can be annihilated at any time. I believe the few of you feel the same way."
Gu Mo looked at Jian Wushuang and the other two with a smile.
Jian Wushuang only smiled faintly.
However, Sheng Long and the Purple Dress House Master's expressions changed completely.
They could tell that something was wrong with Gu Mo's words. It was not going to go according to what they had agreed on.
"Palace Master Gu Mo, what are you trying to say?" Sheng Long asked in a deep voice.
"Haha, what I want to say is actually very simple. The Corpse Palace, the Sword Alliance, the Divine Dragon Pavilion, and the Purple Dress House are all gathered in the same territory. If we are alone, we will be pitifully weak. If we encounter a second-rate force or a powerful expert, none of us will have any room to struggle. However, if the four of us can unite and form a rope, even a powerful second-rate force will not dare to attack us easily. We will have a greater chance of surviving in the Danyang Continent in the future. Isn't that perfect?" Gu Mo smiled.
"Unite into a rope? May I know what Palace Master Gu Mo intends to do? "Sheng Long asked.
"An alliance. The four of us will unite and form a new force," said Gu Mo.
"An alliance? I think it's a merger? "Sheng Long's eyes were cold.
"You can say that." Gu Mo nodded with a smile.
Sheng Long and the Purple Dress House Master's faces turned completely gloomy when they heard that.
They finally understood that the real purpose of Gu Mo's banquet was not to target the Sword Alliance.
The Bone Devil's true intention was to merge or swallow the three forces in one go.
As for the so-called investigation of the Sword Alliance's origin and targeting the Sword Alliance, it was just an excuse. His purpose was to gather them to the Corpse Palace.
After all, Sheng Long and the Purple Dress House Master wouldn't attend Gu Mo's banquet in the Corpse Palace if there were no conflicts between them.
However, Sheng Long and the Purple Dress House Master took the initiative to look for them this time …
"Palace Master Gu Mo, we were invited here to resolve the matter of the Seven Absolute Palace and the Blood Water Gang being destroyed by the Sword Alliance. As for the alliance you mentioned, the Purple Dress House is not interested," said the Purple Dress House Master directly.
"The same goes for the Divine Dragon Pavilion." Sheng Long solemnly said, "If Palace Master Gu Mo's purpose of hosting this banquet is to form an alliance, there is no need for this banquet to continue. Goodbye."
Sheng Long stood up and walked out of the hall after saying that.
The Purple Dress House Master also left. Only Jian Wushuang continued to sit there cross-legged.
Gu Mo only smiled as he watched the two of them leave and did not seem to have any intention of stopping them.
However, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Sheng Long and the Purple Dress House Master just as they reached the hall's entrance.
"The banquet has just begun. Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
A cold voice came from the person's mouth.
This was an old man with an ice-cold body that seemed to have no vitality at all. His voice also seemed to have no vitality.
"Shi Mo!!"
Sheng Long and the Purple Dress House Master's expressions changed drastically.
Shi Mo was Gu Mo's elder brother and was also an extremely powerful Peak Heaven Ultimate God. He was at least much stronger than Gu Mo and Sheng Long.
However, Shi Mo was not the only one. There were also two other figures standing behind him. The two figures were a man and a woman. The aura they emitted had also reached the level of Peak Heaven Ultimate God.
