Taoist Priest Jing Ying did not take this matter to heart. In fact, he also wanted to teach Zhao Hai a lesson, because Zhao Hai had killed so many of their people before. If he did not teach Zhao Hai a lesson, and really managed to wipe away the enmity with a smile, the disciples of the Xuanjian sect would feel extremely uncomfortable. From the moment Zhao Hai appeared in the Transmission array of the Xuanjian sect, it could be seen that the ordinary disciples of the Xuanjian sect were still very hostile towards Zhao Hai.
It was precisely because of this that Taoist Priest Jing Ying could not show too much friendliness to Zhao Hai. This was also for the sake of the peace of the Xuanjian sect.
However, it was different now. Just now, he had already tested Zhao Hai, and he knew that Zhao Hai was very strong. Now, he did not dare to underestimate Zhao Hai, and he believed that the other people from the Xuanjian sect, once they saw Zhao Hai's skills, their hostility would decrease by a lot.
This was just like an ordinary person. If you were defeated by someone who was inferior to you, you might feel extremely angry. However, if the person who defeated you was someone who was stronger than you, or even someone who was much stronger than you, then you might have no choice but to accept it. Right now, Zhao Hai was like this. His strength was enough to make many disciples of the Xuanjian sect face the strength of the Sword Defense Sect seriously, and no longer treat the Sword Defense Sect as a force that was inferior to the Xuanjian sect.
After Zhao Hai sat down, Jing Ying looked at Zhao Hai and smiled: "I always thought that you were someone who only knew how to use your mouth, but now it seems that your strength is not bad either. In your hands, the Sword Defense Sect has developed very quickly, and your strength seems to have increased by a lot. I originally did not know the reason, but now I more or less know."
Zhao Hai said in a deep voice: "Daoist Priest is too polite, let's talk about serious matters. Daoist Priest, I think you already know why I'm here. I wonder what you think of my suggestion?"
Jing Ying looked at Zhao Hai and said in a deep voice: "Your suggestion is very good, really, I agree very much. The matters of the South Sea should be settled by us, the people of the South Sea, and those large sects should not extend their hands into it. Therefore, I still agree with the alliance you mentioned, as long as you can convince the seventy-two islands of the South Sea, then we can support you in forming this alliance."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, I'm relieved to hear your words. You're right, the South Sea should be solved by the people of the South Sea. The South Sea is our domain. Strictly speaking, we're a family. We're like brothers in a family. We can fight to the death behind closed doors, that's our business. But if other people want to occupy our home, that's absolutely not allowed." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "You're right.
Jing Ying nodded. At this time, Daoist Priest Fierce Tiger also said, "If the three of us join forces, then we can resist the large sects. But what I'm worried about is that the free trade zone will slowly decline."
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "No, I don't think so. This is because we are the closest to the South Sea. We can buy the best goods here. The large sects also need these things. So as long as we do it well, as long as we do it fairly, as long as we have the strength to maintain the stability, then the free trade zone will continue to exist."
However, what they don't know is that the Free Trade Zone doesn't make much money. Shops like ours don't collect a lot of crystal stones, it can even be said to be very little. We only collect crystal stones like ordinary stalls. Although there are a lot of crystal stones, they aren't very useful. In the Free Trade Zone, all the transmission formations are free, anyone can use them. Moreover, because there are a lot of people, the transmission formations don't stop working every day. Because of this, the Sword Imperial Sect can only exchange the crystals we collect for higher grade crystals for the transmission formations. In addition, the Free Trade Zone also needs a lot of disciples to guard it. Not only do the disciples have to complete the sect's missions, they also have to give the sect a reward. Because of this, the Free Trade Zone really doesn't make much money. However, people don't know about this, they think that the Free Trade Zone is very profitable. In fact, I made this Free Trade Zone so that the people from the Great Sects wouldn't secretly deal with us in the buffer zone. This way, it would be easier for us to deal with them. To be honest, I didn't think that the Free Trade Zone would develop so well. "Zhao Hai nodded, then he continued," The Sword Imperial Sect needs a lot of disciples to guard the Free Trade Zone. Not only do the disciples have to give benefits to the sect, they also have to give a lot of rewards. Because of this, the Free Trade Zone really doesn't make much money. However, people don't know about this, they think that the Free Trade Zone is very profitable. In fact, I made this Free Trade Zone to prevent the people from the Great Sects from secretly dealing with our buffer zone. To be honest, I didn't expect the Free Trade Zone to develop so well. "
Jing Ying and Daoist Priest Fierce Tiger quietly listened to Zhao Hai's words. They were also skeptical of Zhao Hai's words. They believed that the free trade zone wouldn't be able to collect too much money, but they should still be able to make some money. Unlike what Zhao Hai said, they shouldn't be able to make any money.
However, they didn't point it out. They only pretended to comfort Zhao Hai. This time, the matter had passed just like that. Zhao Hai didn't say anything. After eating, they returned to their place of residence.
Zhao Hai was also very clear that he was able to force Daoist Priest Jing Ying back in one move today because he was extremely lucky. Firstly, it was because Daoist Priest Jing Ying didn't want to damage the main hall of the Xuanjian sect, so he didn't use his full strength. It was just a test, and secondly, it was because his control over his strength was indeed stronger than Daoist Priest Jing Ying's. In addition, Daoist Priest Jing Ying should also want to form an alliance with him and not really want his life, so after being forced back by him, he didn't attack again. Instead, he gave him face and directly agreed to the alliance between the two sides. If he really fought with Daoist Priest Jing Ying, Zhao Hai didn't have the guts to guarantee that he would be able to defeat Daoist Priest Jing Ying. If he wanted to defeat Daoist Priest Jing Ying, he would have to use his full strength.
Moreover, Zhao Hai had a feeling that Daoist Priest Jing Ying wasn't that simple. He felt an extremely dangerous aura from Daoist Priest Jing Ying's body. This aura wasn't very strong, but it had always existed. This made Zhao Hai know that Daoist Priest Jing Ying definitely had some tricks up his sleeve that he didn't know about.
After resting in the Xuanjian sect for a night, Zhao Hai and the others directly returned to the Jianyu sect. However, the people from the various sects that followed Zhao Hai did not return to their respective sects, because their diplomatic mission this time had yet to be completed.
This time, they had at most completed half of their diplomatic mission. There was still half that had yet to be completed. Both the Mysterious Sky Sect and the Xuanjian sect had gone, and it was relatively smooth. However, they had yet to go to the seventy-two islands in the South Sea.
Zhao Hai's face was calm. He let everyone rest in the Jianyu sect for a few days. At the same time, he sent someone to contact the seventy-two islands in the South Sea. He wanted to go to the seventy-two islands in the South Sea.
The reply from the seventy-two islands came back very quickly. They didn't make things difficult for Zhao Hai. They directly agreed to his request and agreed to let him go to the seventy-two islands in the South Sea.
After Zhao Hai received this news, he immediately prepared to take action. This was because his recent movements had attracted the attention of the large sects. Now, the gazes of the large sects were focused on him. They wanted to see what he wanted to do. Zhao Hai felt that it was better to settle the matter with the seventy-two islands in the South Sea as soon as possible.
On the third day after the return of the Xuanjian sect, Zhao Hai led everyone to the seventy-two islands in the South Sea. Their first stop was still the Spirit Crab Island.
Speaking of which, Zhao Hai actually didn't dislike the Spirit Crab Island at all. However, what the seventy-two islands did before was indeed a little too much. The conflict between the two sides was also something that couldn't be helped.
As soon as Zhao Hai and the others appeared in the teleportation formation, someone immediately came up to them. Zhao Hai recognized this person. It was Lin Feng, who he had met before. Lin Feng previously represented the seventy-two islands in the South Sea and had formed an alliance with the Sea Exploration Alliance. Although they immediately broke the alliance after they returned, he was still familiar with Zhao Hai. Therefore, the seventy-two islands sent him to welcome Zhao Hai.
However, Zhao Hai also saw another person beside him. This person's status was obviously higher than Lin Feng's. He looked to be in his fifties and wore a warrior's uniform. He looked very spirited, and his skin was dark. He looked like an old fisherman who had been fishing at sea for a long time.
However, Zhao Hai didn't dare to not look at him. As his eyes opened and closed, they shone brightly. His body was full of vigor. With one look, one could tell that he wasn't an ordinary person.
As soon as Lin Feng saw Zhao Hai appear, he immediately bowed to Zhao Hai and said, "Greetings, Sect Leader Jianjiu. How have you been?"
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Mr. Lin, you're too polite. Thanks to you, I've been doing well."
Lin Feng smiled and then said to Zhao Hai, "This is the Elder of the Spirit Crab Island, Elder Duan Zhong. Elder, this is the Sect Leader of the Jianyu Sect, the Leader of the Sea Exploration Alliance, Sect Leader Jianjiu."
Duan Zhong looked at Zhao Hai and said in a deep voice, "I've heard of Sect Leader Jianjiu's great name. The name of Sect Leader Jianjiu's Blood Fox Sword can stop children from crying at night in the South Sea."
"It's just a false reputation. Don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously." Zhao Hai said with a smile. However, his words angered Duan Zhong. The reason why he said that Zhao Hai's name could stop children from crying at night was to mock Zhao Hai. He even deliberately mentioned the name of the Blood Fox Sword. Zhao Hai only got this name because he attacked the 72 South Sea Islands. Now that Duan Zhong mentioned it, it was obvious that he was up to no good.
However, Zhao Hai pretended not to hear it and continued to answer humbly as usual. This was also the biggest mockery to the 72 South Sea Islands. It would be strange if Duan Zhong's expression was good.
Duan Zhong looked at Zhao Hai and said in a deep voice, "Sect Leader Jianjiu, please." He did not mock Zhao Hai because he was only in charge of receiving people. If he really offended Zhao Hai, the upper echelons of the Spirit Crab Island would not let him go.
Recently, the upper echelons of the Spirit Crab Island already knew about Zhao Hai's actions. They wanted to know what Zhao Hai wanted to do, why he went to the Xuantian Sect and the Xuantian Sect, and then came here. What was his purpose? If Duan Zhong angered Zhao Hai and made Zhao Hai angry, the upper echelons of the Spirit Crab Island would not let him go.
