Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios In the Lesser Dragon City Lord Mansion, Long Tianlin was sitting in his study, and opposite him stood a black clad man. This black clad man was extremely small and skinny, and his looks were ordinary, with nothing special about him. Most importantly, he was very weak, not even at the Consolidating Equipment Stage.
The black-robed man stood there and said, "City Lord, the situation is like this. City Lord Zhao Hai and the others have killed more than 1200 people from the Holy Academy. Of the 1500 people from the Holy Academy, only 300 of them were able to return. This time, the Holy Academy has suffered a big loss." The black-robed man nodded and said, "City Lord, the situation is like this. City Lord Zhao Hai and the others have already killed 1200 people.
Long Tianlin nodded and said: "Alright, I understand. You may leave." The black clad man nodded and turned to leave. As soon as the black clad man left, Long Tianlin immediately said: "Big Grandfather, do you think Zhao Hai can defeat the Saint Academy?"
"Little Young Master, in the past, I really did not think that Zhao Hai and the others could defeat the Saint Academy. After all, the Saint Academy's strength is there for all to see. However, now, I am not so sure. Little Young Master, this Zhao Hai is a person that I cannot see through. For him to be able to defeat the Saint Academy in such a situation, that is really beyond my expectations. At that time, I thought that it would be good if he could hold his own against the Saint Academy, but now, it seems like I have underestimated him."
"Big Grandfather, previously, Zhao Hai sent someone to inform us that he would send someone to contact the Family Alliance, and he did indeed do so. However, the result was that the Family Alliance did not even care about the people he sent. I heard that the Zhe Family did not have a good attitude towards the people they sent. However, do you think that after the Family Alliance knows about this, they will want to work with Zhao Hai again? If they really work with Zhao Hai, what should we do? "
"Little Young Master, don't worry. In my opinion, the possibility of those fellows from the Family Alliance working with Zhao Hai is not high. Those fellows from the Family Alliance are not as good as their ancestors. In the past, those fellows from the Family Alliance were not bad, otherwise, they would not have been able to force our Long Family to this extent. However, those fellows from the Family Alliance are not as good as they used to be. They have all become too arrogant, and they do not put anyone in their eyes."
"But now is not the time. This time, Zhao Hai has defeated the Holy Court, and he has fully displayed his strength. Even if the Family Alliance is arrogant, they would still cooperate with Zhao Hai, right?" "Not necessarily.
Little Young Master, you should know that the Zhe Family and Zhao Hai have a grudge. A disciple of the Zhe Family died in the Lost Soul City-State. I heard that the Zhe Family also sent people to deal with Zhao Hai. Later on, when Zhao Hai's strength became stronger and stronger, they gave up on this idea. But now, Young Master, you shouldn't overestimate those fellows. To be honest, they are far worse than their ancestors. If their ancestors were still alive, then they would certainly cooperate with Zhao Hai for the sake of the family's development. But now, those people from the Family Alliance think that they have developed to the extreme. They don't need to form an alliance with others, let alone an enemy like Zhao Hai. Therefore, when the news of Zhao Hai defeating the Holy Court spread, they might not necessarily cooperate with Zhao Hai. On the contrary, they might cooperate with the Holy Court. "
"Cooperate with the Holy Word? Are they crazy? Is the Holy Court better than Zhao Hai? Don't they have any enmity with the Holy Court? Aren't they afraid that the Holy Court will swallow them in one bite? "
"That's why I said that Little Young Master shouldn't overestimate them. They are a group of arrogant fellows. If they weren't so arrogant, then our Long Family wouldn't have been able to develop so smoothly. Moreover, those fellows really don't have any enmity with the Holy Court. It can be said that their status today is all thanks to the Holy Court. They don't have any direct conflict with the Holy Court. Therefore, it is very possible for them to form an alliance with the Holy Word."
"If that's the case, then our days will be even more difficult. However, our alliance with Zhao Hai will be more reliable. If Zhao Hai can defeat the Holy Court in the future, then it won't be difficult for us to restore our rule over the Yalong City. Great Grandfather, what do you think the Holy Court should do now?"
"I don't know, Little Young Master. In fact, the Holy Court has made a lot of mistakes in the past. If they didn't make so many mistakes, then Zhao Hai wouldn't have been able to defeat them so easily. So I really don't know what they will do now. Those fellows of the Holy Court are even more arrogant than the Family Alliance. I really don't know what they will do now."
"Then it seems like we can only wait and see what the Holy Court will do next. At the same time, we also need to see what Zhao Hai will do next. Before they come to a conclusion, we shouldn't expose our strength. Compared to them, our Long Family is still too weak."
"Little Young Master, it's good that you can think this way. Although our Long Family has recovered some of our strength, it's still far from our peak. If our Long Family was at its peak, then we can directly participate in this matter. But now, we can't, we need to restore our strength first."
"Yes, Great Grandfather, I understand."
At the same time, in the living room of the Yalong City's Zhe Family, a group of people was sitting. These people were from the Family Alliance of the Yalong City. Naturally, they were discussing the latest news.
The Zhe Family's Patriarch, Zhe Yujiao, looked at the people in the living room and said, "Everyone already knows that the Holy Court has been defeated. Although it's not a total defeat, they still lost miserably. What do you think about this matter?"
Nobody spoke, everyone was silent. To be honest, they thought that it was impossible for the Holy Court to be defeated. It was precisely because of this that they were impolite to the emissaries sent by Zhao Hai. But now that Zhao Hai won, they found it hard to accept. At the same time, they also felt a sense of crisis.
The Zhe Family's Patriarch looked at them and said, "Are you still thinking about joining Zhao Hai's side? If you really have such thoughts, then our Zhe Family can only apologize. We won't join Zhao Hai. "
Everyone looked at the Patriarch, then one of them said, "Old Zhe, we know that you and Zhao Hai have enmity. But is it because of this enmity that you don't want to cooperate with Zhao Hai?"
The She Family's Patriarch shook his head and said, "Of course not. I don't want to cooperate with Zhao Hai, not because of hatred, but because of benefits. The current situation is very clear. The alliance that Zhao Hai established has become more stable, it wouldn't be as easy to break through as before. They are now united. As long as they are united, they would have the qualifications to challenge the Holy Academy. Although the Holy Academy has suffered a loss, it can't be considered a defeat. The foundation of the Sacred Academy hasn't been damaged. Moreover, they have a lot of city-states under their control. Although these city-states aren't directly controlled by the Sacred Academy, the Sacred Academy's control over them is still much stronger than other city-states. Because of this, the Sacred Academy still has the strength to fight. However, compared to the alliance, the Sacred Academy is still lacking."
However, the Holy Court's Patriarch isn't as strong as the Holy Court. "Everyone nodded, they also agreed with this point. Although they were arrogant like Long Tianlin's Great Grandfather, they weren't idiots. To be able to sit on the Patriarch's seat and rule such a large family, how could they be idiots? They can also see that the Anti-Holy Court's Alliance was truly united. It can also be said that the Anti-Holy Court's Alliance was now truly established.
On the other hand, the Holy Court's situation wasn't very good. Although the Holy Court's defeat didn't hurt its foundation, it still lowered its prestige once again. It also broke the myth that the Holy Court was invincible. Because of this, the influence of the Holy Court on the other city-states was reduced once again. Correspondingly, some clans who were close to the Holy Court might have other ideas. This also caused the Holy Court's strength to decrease. If one only looks at its surface strength, then the Holy Court was no longer as strong as the Anti-Holy Court's Alliance.
When the Zhe Clan's Patriarch saw that everyone agreed with him, he continued, "But our Yalong City hasn't participated in this matter. This puts us in a very advantageous position. Our Yalong City isn't weak. If we side with either side, then the other side will have a headache. This is also the reason why I didn't agree to cooperate with Zhao Hai. But now, we must make a choice. Since the Holy Court suffered a loss and the Anti-Holy Court won, then both sides will enter a period of relative peace. I'm afraid that there won't be any war between the Holy Court and the Anti-Holy Court. In this case, our Yalong City has become the focus of their attention. If we don't make a choice, then we might offend both sides. Therefore, it's time for us to make a choice."
Everyone nodded. The Zhe Clan's Patriarch's words were reasonable. The Yalong City was a considerable force. Whether it was the Anti-Holy Court or the Holy Court, both sides wouldn't turn a blind eye to this force. In the past, when both sides were in a war, they didn't have time to deal with them. But now that both sides have entered a period of relative peace, they would certainly find a way to deal with the Yalong City. This was because they didn't know if the Yalong City was a friend or foe, and they were also very strong. This made both sides feel uneasy. Therefore, if the Yalong City's Patriarch didn't take a stance, then they might offend both sides.
It's worth mentioning that the Zhe Clan's Patriarch didn't call them the Clan Alliance. Instead, he referred to them as the Yalong City. It can be seen that they didn't put the Long Family in their eyes. In their opinion, the Yalong City was theirs, the Long Family wasn't in their consideration at all.
Long Tianlin's Great Grandfather said that they were too arrogant. These words had some truth to it. These people from the Family Alliance were indeed too arrogant. In their minds, they already had complete control over the Lesser Dragon City-State. The Lesser Dragon City-State was now theirs. In their eyes, the Long Family had already ceased to exist.
