There were many forces in the Breezy Plains, and judging from the incident this time, they all had considerable strength. There were six pseudo-Sanctuary powerhouses, and there were many Legendary powerhouses who were at the peak of the Legendary-realm.
If it had been in the past, Cantory naturally wouldn't have taken them seriously when they were obviously disunited. It was because the power of any force was not enough to cause trouble for the Gilded Kingdom, even if it was a small alliance formed by several forces. After all, the Gilded Kingdom and the Illuminati had unified power, and they were not something that a few local forces could contend with.
However, through this incident, Cantory could clearly feel that the forces of the Breezy Plains had already shown that the Tower of Dusk was the leader. Cantory was not a popinjay, and since he could become the envoy of the Gilded Kingdom, he definitely had some ability. Besides, his father was the chancellor of the Gilded Kingdom, and as long as he was not a fool, he would be able to see the changes in the situation at this moment.
If the strength of the Tower of Dusk was similar to that of the other forces, Cantory could still optimistically think that the situation of the forces being led by the Tower of Dusk might only be temporary. However, the problem was that the power displayed by the young president of the Tower of Dusk and the powerful Sky Castle shocked even Cantory, let alone the people of the other forces.
Cantory completely believed that from today onwards, the Breezy Plains would probably really bid farewell to the situation of being disunited, and all the forces would gather together under the leadership of the young president of the Tower of Dusk. In that case, the original plan of the Gilded Kingdom to gradually encroach on the Breezy Plains would probably all go to waste.
Cantory was the person in charge of the expansion plan of the Gilded Kingdom in the Breezy Plains, and he naturally didn't want his plan to fail just like that. Hence, when Elder Zumar, Lin Li, Elvis, and the others flew over from the battlefield, Cantory looked at Lin Li with some unconcealable fear and hatred in his eyes. He even hoped that Elder Zumar could immediately attack and kill the person who was going to ruin his plan.
Unfortunately, in the battle with the dragon corpse just now, Elder Zumar was definitely the one who put in the most effort, not to mention who had the greatest credit. This was probably what they meant by 'no credit, no hard work, no hard work, no fatigue'. Although Elder Zumar did not have any serious injuries on his body, he had obviously consumed a lot of mental strength and mana, and probably couldn't even exert half of his usual combat power.
Given Elder Zumar's current state, it would be extremely difficult for him to take down a true Sanctuary powerhouse. Besides, there were also a few pseudo-Sanctuary powerhouses and a group of Legendary powerhouses. More importantly, the other party also had a powerful Sky Castle, which was a peerless war weapon that could even severely injure a powerful existence like the dragon corpse.
In fact, Cantory was now worried that Lin Li would target him at this moment. Given Lin Li's strength, if he were to really make a move at this time, even Elder Zumar, a high-level Sanctuary powerhouse, would probably only be able to take care of himself at most. The others would probably be left behind. The Gilded Kingdom had already suffered a great loss in this battle, and even though the Gilded Kingdom was a great country, it was impossible for them to not take the elites seriously.
Hence, when Elder Zumar landed on the ground, Cantory immediately led his men to greet him, and formed a clear line between them and the people of the Breezy Plains. Besides, under his secret signal, the others also secretly kept their guards up in case the people of the Breezy Plains launched a sudden attack.
Seeing the behavior of the people of the Gilded Kingdom, the people of the Breezy Plains also had different reactions. Some looked disdainful, while others seemed a little angry. Those who were disdainful were clearly very confident in their strength after watching the battle just now, especially that of the president of the Tower of Dusk. On the other hand, those who were infuriated felt that the Gilded Kingdom was burning the bridge after crossing it. After all, they were invited to assist them, and now that their problem had finally been solved, they became wary of them. That was burning the bridge after crossing it.
At this moment, Lin Li led Elvis and the others to land on the ground of the forces of the Breezy Plains. Seeing the behavior of the people of the Gilded Kingdom, Elvis endured the pain in his body, and grinned before turning his head to look at Lin Li. It seemed that if Lin Li really gave the order to attack the people of the Gilded Kingdom, Elvis would really be the first to rush forward.
"Ahem, President Felic, everyone, thank you for coming to help this time. We still have to report the matter here to the kingdom and the Illuminati as soon as possible, so we won't take up too much of your time. As for the things we discussed earlier, please rest assured. We will immediately carry out the agreement after we return. " After receiving Elder Zumar's signal, Cantory knew that it was not the time to get into a conflict with the forces of the Breezy Plains even though he was indignant. Hence, he had no choice but to bear with the resentment in his heart and compromise.
"Well, I believe that with the strength of the Gilded Kingdom, they won't go to the extent of ruining their reputation over such a trivial matter." Lin Li did not plan to attack the people of the Gilded Kingdom, even though the Tower of Dusk and the Gilded Kingdom could still be considered enemies, and a battle would probably be inevitable in the future. However, if they were to fall out now, the conditions that they had previously discussed would definitely be nullified, and that would not be in line with the principle of maximizing benefits.
Besides, the Gilded Kingdom was not to be trifled with. Although Lin Li was confident in the strength of himself and the Tower of Dusk, he was not so arrogant as to think that he was really invincible. At least, Lin Li was not absolutely confident that he could make Elder Zumar of the Gilded Kingdom stay. If he could not take down the high-level Sanctuary powerhouse, he would not be able to hurt the foundation of the Gilded Kingdom even if he destroyed everyone else here.
Besides, it was not a good time to start a war at all. Lin Li had more important things to do, and if he were to really start a war with the Gilded Kingdom, most of his energy and time would be involved in it. How would he have time to consider other issues? War had always been the last resort to solve problems, and Lin Li was not that free to take the initiative to start a war at this juncture.
Hearing Lin Li's words, the people of the Gilded Kingdom all heaved a sigh of relief. They were originally really worried that the young president of the Tower of Dusk would act impulsively because of his young age. Since the other party was still thinking about asking for compensation, it clearly showed that the other party did not intend to fall out with them at this juncture.
Due to the fact that the Gilded Kingdom had suffered considerable losses in this battle, there were still plenty of things to deal with. Hence, Lin Li and the people of the various forces of the Breezy Plains did not continue to stay there. Anyway, they did not have to worry about the Gilded Kingdom going back on their word. If the Gilded Kingdom really did something so shameless, it would probably be difficult for them to develop in the Breezy Plains in the future. Besides, they would also become the laughing stock of the entire Anril.
After Elvis and the others bid farewell to Lin Li respectfully, they left Cage Island with their people. On the other hand, Lin Li returned to the Sky Castle above his head. The mageweath of the Sky Castle lit up again, and it flew away from the sky of Cage Island in the direction of the Tower of Dusk.
Watching the Sky Castle gradually disappear into the distance, Cantory retracted his envious gaze, turned around, and said to Elder Zumar, "Elder, I'm afraid that kid from the Tower of Dusk has taken advantage of us this time. With this battle, he has already established his prestige in the hearts of the forces of the Breezy Plains. I'm afraid he will be our biggest obstacle in the future."
How could Elder Zumar not see the problem that even Cantory could see? In particular, the performance of the people on the battlefield just now made him even more aware of how obedient Elvis and the other pseudo-Sanctuary powerhouses were to the young president of the Tower of Dusk. When Lin Li left the battlefield, they actually did not hesitate too much, and still chose to insist on staying on the battlefield. It was no longer a simple cooperative relationship, but a kind of obedience from subordinates to their superiors.
Elder Zumar even believed that as long as the young president of the Tower of Dusk raised his arm and called for help, the forces of the entire Breezy Plains would probably gather immediately. Besides, it would not be a loose alliance, but a truly massive force. If the situation of the Breezy Plains became like that, the difficulties that the Gilded Kingdom would face in developing in the Breezy Plains would definitely increase exponentially.
However, Elder Zumar did not say much about this issue, and instead nodded calmly. He turned around to look at Cage Island, which had already returned to peace, and said, "Okay, it's time for us to go back." After saying that, he used the Domain World to bring everyone up, and flew straight towards the fleet at sea.
In fact, there was no problem at all for the Gilded Kingdom's team to come over from the sea this time. Besides, they had always been coming to Cage Island by sea before this. This time, just like what the forces of the Breezy Plains thought, the Gilded Kingdom did have the intention to show off their strength, and wanted to shock the many forces of the Breezy Plains by destroying the Blackwater Swamp and the Leviathan.
However, Elder Zumar probably did not expect that this operation would instead help the Tower of Dusk establish its prestige among the various forces of the Breezy Plains. However, Zumar was not very concerned about that. In the face of absolute strength, that would actually not affect the overall situation.
"Elder, when we go back this time, should we invite a few elders over again? I believe that with you and a few elders joining forces, the Tower of Dusk will not be able to escape destruction even if they have a Sky Castle." The fleet began to return, and Cantory, who was sitting on the flagship with Elder Zumar, was a little indignant. After all, he was the special envoy of the Gilded Kingdom, and was in charge of the expansion plan of the Gilded Kingdom in the Breezy Plains. If he could really destroy the Tower of Dusk, it would definitely be of great help to his future plans.
Of course, that was just the reason on the surface. On the other hand, Cantory also had some resentment towards the Tower of Dusk, and the experience of asking for help this time was really unpleasant for him. Others might not think much of it, but it was only right for him to humble himself when asking for help. However, Cantory was a person who could make him yield to many people in the Gilded Kingdom. Now, he actually had to lower his head to a bunch of country bumpkins, and was even mocked by them. That was simply the most humiliating experience of his life.
Besides, Cantory might not be willing to admit it, but he was probably still a little jealous of the young president of the Tower of Dusk. After all, he had always been known as a genius, and could be said to be the best of the younger generation in the Gilded Kingdom. Now, there was a genius who was younger than him, but had already stepped into the Sanctuary-realm. How could he accept that?
In order to get Elder Zumar to agree to his suggestion, Cantory even said with a solemn expression, "Elder, according to the information we received, the Tower of Dusk has already begun the construction of battleships, and seems to have pointed their future development towards the Endless Ocean. Besides, that Felic is ambitious, and his target might be our kingdom. "
However, Cantory had been watching the battle from the sidelines, and did not really join in the battle against the dragon corpse. Hence, his understanding of Lin Li's strength was limited to the fact that Lin Li was a true Sanctuary powerhouse. However, Elder Zumar had a very clear understanding of Lin Li's strength, and knew that Lin Li was a high-level Sanctuary powerhouse who was not inferior to him.
Hence, Elder Zumar did not agree with Cantory's proposal, and instead shook his head slightly. He said, "You can't see Felic's strength too clearly yet, so it's not strange for you to have such an idea. Although Felic is young, I'm afraid he's not inferior to me in terms of strength. When dealing with such a Sanctuary powerhouse, if we can't completely suppress him with a thunderous momentum, once he escapes, we'll have to be prepared for endless revenge. "
Elder Zumar was not exaggerating at all. That was actually the reason why there were very few Sanctuary powerhouses in Anril who would form deadly feuds with each other. Even if Sanctuary powerhouses could not become friends, they would at most not interact with each other, and would rarely fight as soon as they met. If one did not have enough confidence in killing the other party, they would have to be prepared to be plotted against and pestered in the future. Although the lifespan of Sanctuary powerhouses was extremely long, it would be too much of a loss if they were to waste it on such matters.
That was also the reason that the Ashen Warlock dared to directly threaten the people of the Gilded Kingdom and the Illuminati, and tell them not to bother him for no reason. He even destroyed the Gilded Kingdom's envoys. However, faced with the Ashen Warlock's actions, the Gilded Kingdom and the Illuminati had no choice but to tolerate it. They did not dare to go against the Ashen Warlock.
