Zhao Hai was still busy building the Heart Ridge defensive line. According to Zhao Hai's idea, the construction of the main body of the Heart Ridge defensive line would take a long time. Therefore, Zhao Hai had a lot of things to do now.
While Zhao Hai was busy, a disciple suddenly ran to Zhao Hai's side, cupped his fist and said, "Sect Master, I just received news from the sea. It said that there are people from the Demon Spirit Realm heading towards us. Looking at their appearance, they seem to be people from the Yi Sect. This is because they came from the Yi Sect's domain." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Sect Master, I just received news from the sea.
When Zhao Hai heard this, he couldn't help but be surprised. Then he looked at the disciple with some puzzlement and said, "You mean people from the Yi Sect? Are they really from the Yi Sect? "
The disciple said in a deep voice, "Yes, Sovereign. The news from the sea is indeed so. Those people came out from the territory of the Yi Sect. They bypassed the territory of the Holy Gate from the sea and are rushing towards us. There are only eight people in total, but their strength is not bad. They also have a mount, which is a giant eagle."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Let the people in the sea keep an eye on them. But don't touch them. Don't take the initiative to contact them. Just keep an eye on them." The disciple nodded and then turned around and left.
When the person left, Zhao Hai turned to Sheng Kuang and Che Rong and said, "Kuang 'er, Rong' er, if those people are really from the Yi Sect, what do you think they want to do?"
Sheng Kuang thought for a moment and said, "Father, the Yi Sect and the Holy Gate have always had a grudge. They signed a truce agreement with the Holy Gate before. I think they want to sit on the sidelines and watch. This time, they came to us. Could it be that they want to cooperate with us to deal with the Holy Gate?" Che Rong also nodded. Obviously, he also thought so.
Zhao Hai replied, "It's hard to say right now. We'll have to wait for them to arrive. But since they only sent a few people, it means that they have good intentions. Otherwise, they wouldn't have sent people to get in touch with us." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright.
Sheng Kuang nodded and said, "It seems like they came with good intentions. Let's wait and see."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly, then he looked at the Holy Gate and said, "They came with good intentions. But it's hard to say whether they will send troops with us to deal with the Holy Gate. I don't think they will send troops with us to deal with the Holy Gate. Look at our current situation with the Holy Gate. We have the Chicken Heart Mountain Range, which is easy to defend and hard to attack. However, the Holy Gate also has the Wolf Ivory Mountain Range. It's easier to defend and harder to attack than the Chicken Heart Mountain Range. In this case, if the Yi Sect participates, on the surface, it seems to be very beneficial for them. Both of us can deal with the Holy Gate. But if we think about it deeply, if they really send troops, then the losses won't be small. I think the Yi Sect should know how many troops we have in the Demon Spirit World. They should also know about our fighting strength. What if we attack them after dealing with the Holy Gate? I'm afraid they're worried about this. Therefore, they shouldn't join us in dealing with the Sea Exploring Sect. "
Sheng Kuang and Che Rong nodded. Then Che Rong turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Adoptive Father, if they really don't want to send troops with us to deal with the Holy Gate, then why did they send people this time?"
Zhao Hai replied, "They want to establish a good relationship with us first. No matter what, we've already occupied the South Sea. Moreover, we have the Chicken Heart Ridge as well as the ocean as our backing. We can be considered as having a firm foothold in the Demon Spirit Realm. We can be considered as the third major force in the Demon Spirit Realm. In this case, it wouldn't be wrong for them to establish a good relationship with us."
When Sheng Kuang and Che Rong heard Zhao Hai's words, they couldn't help but stare. Then they nodded. They felt that Zhao Hai's words were reasonable. Although the Holy Gate had been defeated by the Sea Exploring Sect several times in the Demon Spirit Realm, the Holy Gate still had the deepest foundation. The Yi Sect was a little worse than the Holy Gate. And because the Sea Exploring Sect was an outsider, it could be said that they were the weakest. However, the Sea Exploring Sect could also be said to be a fierce dragon. In this case, if the Yi Sect had a good relationship with the Sea Exploring Sect, it would only be beneficial for them. If they were in the Yi Sect's position, they would also make the same choice.
Zhao Hai said in a deep voice, "I think the people of the Yi Sect can also see that we will definitely fight with the people of the Holy Gate here in the next period of time. If they establish a good relationship with us at this time, they will have the initiative. Whether they help us deal with the Holy Gate or watch us fight with the Holy Gate, they can make the choice at any time. This may be their plan. They just want to sit back and reap the benefits."
Sheng Kuang coldly snorted and said, "Well, now is not the time to offend them. After we deal with the Holy Gate, we will deal with them. They also want to see us make a fool of ourselves. At that time, we will let them know that our joke is not so good."
Che Rong also nodded, and then said in a deep voice, "It's strange. We can be regarded as outsiders here in the Demon Spirit World. Why would the people of the Yi Sect rather cooperate with us, an outsider, than cooperate with the Holy Gate? Is their hatred really so deep? If that's the case, then we don't have to worry about anything. "
Zhao Hai shook his head and then said in a deep voice, "No, we can't rest assured now because this matter won't be so simple. The reason why the people of the Yi Sect are willing to come to us now may be because they think that we will confront the Holy Gate here for a long time. The longer we confront the Holy Gate, the more advantageous it will be for them. Therefore, they came to us to show some goodwill. But if we really take down the Holy Gate in one fell swoop, then their attitude towards us will change immediately. At that time, we will still be enemies, and they will even join forces with the Holy Gate to deal with us."
Che Rong nodded and said in a deep voice, "If we really take down the Holy Gate, then we will be a threat to the entire Demon Spirit Realm. They will definitely treat us as enemies."
Zhao Hai nodded and then said, "No matter what, we can't fall out with them now. That won't be good for us. Alright, don't worry about them. As long as they don't cooperate with the Holy Gate to deal with us, it's fine. Even if they really cooperate with the Holy Gate to deal with us, it's not a big deal. We just have to wait for them."
Sheng Feng and Che Rong both nodded. Zhao Hai flew forward. He wanted to see how the construction in front was going. Zhao Hai was sizing up the Chicken Heart Ridge defense line and building it into a huge ten-story mountain city. Although it wasn't as tall as the Cloud Mist Peak, their city was bigger than the other side. This was because the people of the Yi Sect only built their mountain city on the Cloud Mist Peak. Zhao Hai built his mountain city on the entire Chicken Heart Ridge, which was much longer than the Cloud Mist Peak.
The reason why Zhao Hai built the Chicken Heart Ridge defense line like this wasn't just to use it as a defensive line. If he really took down the Demon Spirit Realm in the future, then the Chicken Heart Ridge could become a huge populated area. Therefore, he wanted to build it so big.
After three days, Zhao Hai finally received news that the eight Demon Cultivators had contacted them from the South Sea. They claimed to be people of the Yi Sect. This time, they were ordered by their Sect Master to meet Zhao Hai.
After hearing the news, Zhao Hai immediately had the group sent to Chicken Heart Ridge. He wanted to meet them in his study. Zhao Hai didn't say anything.
Soon, these people were sent to the Chicken Heart Ridge through the transmission formation. Then they were led to Zhao Hai's study. At this time, in addition to Zhao Hai, Sheng Feng, and Che Rong who were standing behind him, Wen Wenhai, Ding Chunming, and some other Elders of the Sea Exploring Sect were all present. Fortunately, when Zhao Hai's study was built, he intended to use it as a small conference room. Therefore, even with so many people sitting inside, it didn't seem crowded.
The people of the Yi Sect were led into the study. Zhao Hai looked at the person walking in front. This person was very strong. He had long arms, strong muscles, a thick neck, big nostrils, thick lips, and heavy hair. He looked like a gorilla.
After this person entered the room, he first looked at Zhao Hai. Then he cupped his fist towards Zhao Hai and said, "Yi Sect's Twelve Forms Elder, Great Ape, greets Sect Master Zhao Hai. On behalf of the Yi Sect's Sect Master, I wish Sect Master Zhao Hai good health and longevity." After that, he gave a big bow to Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Great Ape Elder is too polite. Zhao Hai is also polite. Please send my regards to your Sect Master. Come, let Great Ape Elder sit." As soon as his voice fell, a disciple immediately responded. Then, he brought chairs for Great Ape Elder and a few others and asked them to sit down.
Great Ape Elder said in a deep voice, "Yes, thank you Sect Master Zhao Hai." After that, he led a few people to sit down.
Zhao Hai glanced at them, then nodded and said, "I have heard of the name of the Yi Sect for a long time. I wanted to visit them, but I have been troubled by ordinary people all this time, so I couldn't make the trip. Please forgive me. This time, Great Ape Elder can come. It is really a blessing for the Sea Exploring Sect and Zhao Hai."
Great Ape Elder quickly replied, "I wouldn't dare. How could I dare to accept Sect Master Zhao Hai's words? Sect Master Zhao Hai is too polite. Today, I came here on the orders of the Sect Master to pay a visit to Sect Master Zhao Hai."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Great Ape Elder is too polite. I don't like to speak in a roundabout way. I feel that it's meaningless. Therefore, I'll be frank. Did Great Ape Elder come here just to see me?" Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Great Ape Elder, you're too polite. I don't like to beat around the bush.
As soon as Great Ape Elder heard Zhao Hai, his eyes lit up. He was a Beast Cultivator, so he didn't like to speak in a roundabout way. It was too boring. Before, he was just being polite. This made him feel very uncomfortable. Now that Zhao Hai said this, he felt very cordial. He immediately said, "Thank you, Sect Master Zhao Hai. I also don't like to speak in a roundabout way, but since the Sect Master has instructed me, I have no choice but to speak in a roundabout way. Hahaha."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Hai and the others laughed. Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Great Ape Elder doesn't need to be like that. If you have something to say, just say it. I don't have any restrictions here."
The Great Ape Elder nodded, then he cupped his fist towards Zhao Hai and said, "Sect Master Zhao Hai, this time I came to see you on behalf of the Sect Master. I want to form an alliance with you. I wonder what Sect Master Zhao Hai thinks about this?"
Zhao Hai stared, he didn't expect the Great Ape Elder to be so direct. He didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point. However, Zhao Hai liked it very much. He looked at the Great Ape Elder and said, "Good, good. Great Ape Elder's character is really good. There's no problem in forming an alliance. The Yi Sect and our Sea Exploring Sect have deep enmity with the Holy Gate. We came to the Demon Spirit Realm this time for revenge. The Yi Sect might not know what the Holy Gate did in our Sword Spirit Realm. They instigated a civil war in our Sword Spirit Realm. In the end, our Sea Exploring Sect joined forces with the other sects to end the civil war. But then they sent troops to invade our Sword Spirit Realm, causing us to lose at least half of our people. In the end, the Holy Gate managed to force our way out of the Sword Spirit Realm. It took us ten years to recuperate. Even so, our Sword Spirit Realm's population hasn't recovered. How can we not take revenge? Therefore, we came here to seek revenge from the Holy Gate. "
The Great Ape Elder also nodded. He didn't know what the Holy Gate did in the Sword Spirit Realm, but he somewhat believed in Zhao Hai's words. If they invaded the Sword Spirit Realm, they would've done the same. Therefore, he believed that the Holy Gate would've done the same. Therefore, he didn't doubt Zhao Hai's words.
Zhao Hai looked at the Great Ape Elder and said, "But forming an alliance is one thing. I want to hear if the Yi Sect has any conditions? Or after the alliance, will there be any cooperation between us? "
Although the Great Ape Elder had a straightforward temper, it didn't mean that he was a fool. He immediately understood the meaning of Zhao Hai's words. Zhao Hai wanted to ask him why they formed an alliance, and if they would cooperate with the Exploration Sea Sect to attack the Holy Gate after the alliance. The Great Ape Elder had long expected Zhao Hai to ask this question, so he didn't think about it and said to Zhao Hai, "Replying to Sect Master Zhao Hai, our Sect Master said that there are no conditions for our alliance. Moreover, this alliance agreement only confirms that both sides are allies. There is no right to command each other. As for how we will cooperate, I'm really sorry. Previously, our Yi Sect had a great battle with the Holy Gate, and our losses were quite heavy. Now, we have no way to attack the Holy Gate, so I hope Sect Master Zhao Hai can forgive us." The Great Ape Elder's words were very clear. Their alliance with the Holy Gate was just a verbal agreement. They didn't care about the Holy Gate, and the Holy Gate didn't care about them. However, they were already considered allies. As for cooperating with the Holy Gate, it was impossible. They wouldn't attack the Holy Gate now.
Although the Great Ape Elder found some excuses for them not to attack the Holy Gate, who were Zhao Hai and the others? They still understood the meaning of the Great Ape Elder's words, and their faces didn't look too good.
