The emissary was dead!
The emissary that Lu Jinyan sent to the Yalong City was poisoned to death. This news instantly spread throughout the entire Spiritual Weapon World. The Zhe Family's Patriarch immediately thought that the Sacred Academy was the culprit. Therefore, he immediately issued a statement accusing the Sacred Academy of killing the emissary. This was an agreement between him and the Sacred Academy. As long as the Sacred Academy killed the emissary, he would immediately jump out and accuse them in order to gain the trust of the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance.
The Sacred Institute would remain silent when he criticized them. This was what they had agreed on before. Just like what the Zhe Clan thought, the Sacred Institute remained silent and didn't say anything. In fact, this was tantamount to tacit agreement.
However, the Sacred Academy was also puzzled. They wanted to kill the emissary and were already prepared to do so. But they still haven't made a move, so how did the emissary die? Was it done by the Family Alliance? Couldn't they wait?
The Sacred Academy's people could only use this reason to comfort themselves. They didn't dare to contact the Family Alliance at this time. If they did, then the Family Alliance might be exposed. This was because the entire Spiritual Weapon World was now focused on the Yalong City.
The people of the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance criticized the Sacred Academy's actions while sending people to contact the Family Alliance. This time, the contact was very successful. The people of the Family Alliance were very willing to get in touch with them and even agreed to join the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance.
However, the Sacred Academy's people jumped out at this time. They clashed with the Family Alliance several times in the Yalong City. The families that supported the Sacred Academy also attacked the Family Alliance several times.
Upon seeing this, the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance's people immediately believed the Family Alliance. They contacted the Family Alliance more frequently and at the same time, they also promised the Family Alliance a lot of benefits.
When the Family Alliance saw this, they naturally wouldn't let go of this opportunity. They immediately opened their mouths and asked for a lot of benefits. The Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance immediately gave them the things that the Family Alliance wanted. However, it was worth mentioning that the Lost Soul City, Puhe City, Deer City, Blood-Knife City, Stoneox City, Roaring Tiger City, and Galloping Horse City didn't participate in this matter. They also didn't give the things that they gave the Family Alliance.
Although this matter made the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance very angry, they couldn't say anything. After all, the strength of these city-states was very strong. Moreover, the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance also saw that these city-states had a good relationship with the Lost Soul City. However, the Lost Soul City wasn't very interested in contacting the Family Alliance.
Now, the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance was divided into two factions. One faction was led by the 19-year-old Elephant City. During the first war with the Sacred Academy, they weren't very supportive and didn't contribute much. But after the war, when they saw that the Sacred Academy was defeated, they immediately started to lobby everywhere. It was as if the reason why the Sacred Academy won the war was all because of their contribution. At the same time, they also began to exclude the Lost Soul City and downplay Zhao Hai's contribution.
The other faction was led by the Lost Soul City-State. They were the main force during the first war with the Sacred Court. They contributed the most. The Lost Soul City-State was the leader of the Lost Soul City-State. Originally, there were only a few city-states that were attacked. However, the Galloping Horse City-State took the initiative to contact the Lost Soul City-State.
This time, when they contacted the Family Alliance, the Lost Soul City had a reserved attitude. In other words, they didn't agree to contact the Family Alliance.
But now, the 19-year-old Elephant City was the main force of the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance. The number of city-states in the 19-year-old Elephant City was about 5/6 of the total number of city-states in the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance. Because of this, Zhao Hai and the others didn't have any right to speak in the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance. This was because whenever Lu Jinyan and the others made a proposal, the 19-year-old Elephant City would vote on it. And in this vote, Lu Jinyan and the others' proposals generally wouldn't pass.
But the more 19-year-old Elephant City did this, the more united the Galloping Horse City and the other city-states were. This was because if they weren't united, then they would be bullied to death by 19-year-old Elephant City.
After the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance sent the things that the Family Alliance wanted, the Family Alliance immediately expressed their intention to join the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance. This made 19-year-old Elephant City and the others very happy.
But at this time, the news that several city-states of the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance were attacked came. These city-states were attacked in the same way. Suddenly, a large number of Sky Dance Realm experts appeared in these cities and attacked the army and the City Lord's Mansion.
And these cities that were attacked were all relatively important cities in the alliance against the Sacred Academy, including Elephant City and a few other cities. It seemed that the Sacred Academy had done this on purpose because the Sacred Academy was expressing its dissatisfaction with Elephant City and a few other city-states that were in contact with the family alliance.
Naturally, this made 19-year-old Elephant City and the others more determined to contact the Family Alliance. However, when Zhao Hai heard this news, he just sighed and didn't say anything. Then he sent people to contact the City Lords of the Lost Soul City-States and told them about his suspicions about the Family Alliance.
The people of these city-states were very dissatisfied with the suppression of 19-year-old Elephant City. Moreover, they believed in Zhao Hai's strength. Because of this, they chose to believe in Zhao Hai and strengthened the defenses of their city-states.
At this time, the Lost Soul City-State also began to install some formations in their city-states. These formations were installed in the main cities of their city-states. When these formations were installed, the people of the city-states couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
At this time, there was no need for Zhao Hai to say anything. All the city-states of the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance began to strengthen their defenses. This made it very difficult for the Sacred Academy to attack them with their teleportation formations.
Seeing that they were able to block the attack of the Sacred Academy, 19-year-old Elephant City and the others became even more proud. They began to proclaim how good their defenses were and how strong their command was. Then 19-year-old Elephant City hosted the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance Conference. This time, the conference was held in Elephant City.
This change in location was very interesting. In the past, the location of the Anti-Sacred Academy Conference was chosen by the various city-states. The most recent conference was held in Puhe City. This was because people believed that Puhe City was the one who shot the first arrow against the Sacred Academy. Therefore, the conference was held in Puhe City.
But this time, the conference was held in Elephant City. This meant that 19-year-old Elephant City wanted to weaken the influence of the Lost Soul City-State in the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance.
Lu Jinyan led Stone Hammer to Elephant City. Along with the two of them were 100 guards. These people were all wearing heavy armor. One could see that they weren't easy to deal with.
Just as the group appeared in the teleportation formation, a person immediately greeted them. The person bowed and said, "I have seen Sir Lu. Please come with me."
Lu Jinyan looked at the person who spoke. This person seemed to be around 30 years old. He had an ordinary appearance, but his eyes were shining. One could see that he was a clever person. Lu Jinyan looked at him and said, "Do you know me?"
The person smiled and said, "I haven't seen Sir Lu before. However, this teleportation formation came from Puhe City. Therefore, I guessed that the one who came was Sir Lu."
Lu Jinyan smiled faintly and said, "Right, lead the way." The person nodded and immediately led the way. At the same time, he also noticed Stone Hammer and the people behind him. Stone Hammer was wearing white armor while the soldiers behind him were all wearing black armor. They looked very formidable. Moreover, they were moving as one. Their killing intent was awe-inspiring. One could see at a glance that they were elites who had walked through mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
At this time, Lu Jinyan was sizing up Elephant City. This city was very big. In the middle of the city's teleportation formation, there was a large carving. On the carving was a giant elephant roaring towards the sky. It was very lifelike and very beautiful.
The streets of Elephant City were very clean. There wasn't a single speck of dirt to be seen. The clothes of the people on the streets were also very new. There were also all kinds of shops. It was very prosperous.
Lu Jinyan looked around as he followed the person. Before long, the group arrived in front of a courtyard. The person bowed to Lu Jinyan and said, "Sir Lu, the conference will be held the day after tomorrow. The City Lord's Mansion is too small, so it isn't very convenient to live there. Therefore, the representatives of the various cities are all living in the courtyards outside the mansion. This courtyard was specially prepared for you. Since you're the only one living here, it should be very convenient."
Lu Jinyan looked at the courtyard and nodded. This courtyard wasn't small and was very beautiful. It was a good place to live. Lu Jinyan nodded and said, "Alright, then we'll live here." Then he led the way into the courtyard.
This courtyard was very good. There were pavilions, terraces, and pavilions. There were rockeries, strange rocks, flowers, and trees in all four seasons. One could see a scenery with every step. It was very amazing.
After the person led Lu Jinyan into the courtyard, Lu Jinyan said, "Sir Lu, there are servants and cooks in the backyard. All the necessities have already been prepared. Tell them what you want to eat and they'll prepare it for you. If you have any other requests, you can tell the servants to look for me and I'll take care of it for you. If you don't have any other requests, then I'll take my leave."
Lu Jinyan nodded and said, "Go, we don't need anything. You can go and do your own things." The person nodded, then he turned around and left. After the person left, Lu Jinyan and Shi Chui went to the mansion's living room.
After the two sat down, a servant immediately came out. One of the servants bowed to Lu Jinyan and said, "Sir, we're the mansion's servants. May I ask if there's anything that Sir needs?"
Lu Jinyan nodded and said, "Bring some tea. You can go and prepare lunch. Lunch is good enough, there's no need to be too good. Go." The person nodded and then left.
Before long, the tea was served. Then the servants left. Seeing that the people had left, Lu Jinyan turned to Shi Chui and said, "Brother Shi, what do you think about Giant Elephant City?"
Shi Chui replied, "It's average, it looks fake. Compared to Lost Soul City-State, it's a far cry."
Lu Jinyan smiled and said, "Yes, I have the same feeling. Haha, the streets are very clean, and I don't see a single beggar. But no matter how you look at it, it looks like it was just cleaned, and it looks very deliberate. The surrounding houses have also been renovated. As for the people on the streets, although their clothes look very new, this is also the most strange part. Don't they need to work? Why are they wearing such new clothes? "
Shi Chui smiled faintly and said, "It seems like City Lord Nian has invested a lot in this conference. Do you think that they will choose an Alliance Leader during this conference?"
When Lu Jinyan heard Shi Chui, he couldn't help but stare. Then his expression sank as he said, "He dares? What qualifications does he have to be the Alliance Leader? Did the City Lord say that? "
Shi Chui nodded and said, "The Young Master just casually said that. Moreover, he also said that if Nian 19 wants to be the Alliance Leader, then he can be. However, as the Alliance Leader, he doesn't have the authority to control anyone."
Lu Jinyan stared, then he immediately understood what Shi Chui meant. He said, "City Lord means that Nian 19 can be the Alliance Leader, but he can only be the Alliance Leader in name. He doesn't have the authority to control the other city-states. What about during wartime? Even during wartime? " This point was very important. If Nian 19 can control the other city-states during wartime, then it would be very disadvantageous for them. If Nian 19 were to plot against them during wartime, then they wouldn't be able to do anything.
Shi Chui replied, "During wartime, we can order the armies of the other countries. However, if the order is unreasonable, then as long as the five City Lords oppose it, then the order must be canceled. This is our bottom line. If they don't agree, then we will withdraw from the Anti-Holy Academy Alliance."
Upon hearing Shi Chui, Lu Jinyan also relaxed. Zhao Hai's proposal of canceling the order if the five City Lords oppose it was very targeted. At this time, the Lost Soul City had more than five allies. If they feel that Nian 19's order was unreasonable, then they can unite with a few others and have Nian 19's order rescinded. This way, they wouldn't receive a mission that would send them to their deaths. At the same time, they also wouldn't need to be afraid of Nian 19.
Lu Jinyan said, "Is the City Lord still busy? When would he be able to attend such a meeting himself? To be honest, I really can't hold them back anymore. I'm afraid that only the City Lord can control the situation. "Shi Chui smiled and said," Don't worry.
Shi Chui smiled and said, "Don't worry, the Young Master will take care of you. The Young Master is too busy right now, he doesn't have the time. Also, isn't this good? Let them cause trouble, they really think that they can block the Sacred Court's attack. Haha, how ridiculous, do you think the Sacred Court's attack is that easy to block? Let them do what they want. We just need to stabilize the situation according to the Young Master's instructions. We don't need to care about other things. "
Lu Jinyan nodded. Right at this time, a voice came from outside, "Reporting, Stone Ox City's Castellan Shi Potian, Roaring Tiger City's Young Castellan Hu Shengwei, Blood Knife City's Castellan Tian Guizhuang, Deer City's Castellan Lu Yiyuan, and Galloping Horse City's Castellan Ma Yinglong are here to visit Castellan Lu Jinyan!"
