Qingyun Peak, Hidden Moon Pavilion!
"What pressure can I have? “
Yu Haoran said arrogantly in the face of Liu Guangwei's teasing.
"When I, Yu Haoran, am 20 years old, I don't dare to say that I can comprehend the power of laws and break through to the Martial Sage Realm, but I am confident that I can break through to the seventh grade of Martial King."
However, everyone present felt that Yu Haoran's slightly arrogant attitude just now was to be expected.
After all, with Yu Haoran's current speed of advancement, as well as his talent and potential that were constantly improving, it had been more than three years. Perhaps his statement just now was a bit modest.
"Ninth Junior Brother, Sister-in-law, Junior Brothers, I'm sorry!"
Just as Yu Haoran and his fellow disciples were discussing how to quickly improve their cultivation without affecting their foundation, Chu Zhongyu, who had finally figured it out after nearly half an hour of thinking, removed the artifact that blocked out the sound, and then came in front of everyone, sincerely apologizing to them.
"Eldest Senior Brother, what are you doing?" Liu Guangwei, who quickly got up, stopped him.
"Junior Brothers, during this period of time, I have been completely blinded by the power of the Sect Leader. Whether it was intentional or not, I must have done a lot of things to let you down and even hurt you. Senior Brother apologizes to all of you."
"Eldest Senior Brother, you didn't do anything to let us down. We are all willing to help you."
Huang Zonghua, who was good at persuading, tried to persuade Chu Zhongyu while giving Yu Haoran, who was still sitting cross-legged, a look.
However, Yu Haoran didn't get up in the face of Huang Zonghua's look. He just looked straight into Chu Zhongyu's eyes and asked.
"Have you thought it through?"
"I have!" Nodding his head, Chu Zhongyu replied.
"Have you thought it through?"
"Yes!"
"How much time have you given yourself?" Yu Haoran raised his voice and continued asking.
"Two years!" He closed his eyes and a hesitant expression appeared on his face. In the end, the hesitance turned into determination.
After opening his eyes again, Chu Zhongyu said in a firm tone.
"Willingly?"
"Willingly!"
"Not bad, you didn't disappoint me!"
The fact that Chu Zhongyu chose to give him the shortest amount of time meant that Chu Zhongyu was aware of the Hundred Chi Gate's current situation. It also meant that he knew that all of this was because of him.
Therefore, Yu Haoran nodded his head in satisfaction and praised with deep gratification.
"Eldest Senior Brother, take a seat!"
Then, he reached out and pointed at the grass beside him. Yu Haoran nodded and sighed.
"Eldest Senior Brother, perhaps you are still unconvinced in your heart. Perhaps you still have some fantasies about the sect."
"But let me tell you the truth. In at most two years, you will discover that the current situation of the sect is far more serious than what I have described."
"Ninth Junior Brother, I don't feel any dissatisfaction in my heart, but as you said, I still have a trace of hope for the sect."
Chu Zhongyu said with a complicated tone as he turned to look at the sect.
"After all, the Hundred Chi Gate is a second-rate sect that has been passed down for thousands of years. How can it be defeated so easily?"
Yu Haoran didn't say much about Chu Zhongyu's fantasies about the sect, nor did he reveal any more inside information.
He wanted to leave all of this to time and let the ruthless reality pierce through Chu Zhongyu's fantasies.
Then, Yu Haoran began to change the topic and didn't talk about sad topics.
However, Chu Zhongyu stopped him.
"Ninth Junior Brother, I came to find you this time not only to see Sister-in-law, but also to find you for a very important matter." Seeing that Yu Haoran was about to change the topic, Chu Zhongyu hurriedly stopped him.
"What is it?" Yu Haoran asked with a frown.
"Ninth Junior Brother, have you heard of the Qin Alliance?"
While explaining, Chu Zhongyu took out a glittering invitation card from his storage bag. It was made of purple gold that was a hundred times more valuable than gold.
After thinking about it carefully, Yu Haoran realized that he had never heard of the Qin Alliance in his previous life. He took the invitation card from Chu Zhongyu and looked at it carefully.
The content of the invitation card was very simple. The Emperor Qin's Kingdom would hold a pledge ceremony on the 28th of January, which was the day before the Lunar New Year in the Emperor Qin's Kingdom's capital, Xianyang.
"Eldest Senior Brother, when was the Qin Alliance established? Which factions are participating?" Yu Haoran asked doubtfully as he closed the invitation card made of purple gold.
Facing Yu Haoran's question, Chu Zhongyu bitterly smiled and replied.
"Ninth Junior Brother, after receiving the invitation card from the Emperor Qin's Kingdom's messenger, I looked at the secret letters and information left behind by the previous Sect Leaders. There was no mention of the Qin Alliance in any of them."
"After that, I went to visit the twelve Elders, Vice Sect Leader Lie, and the Peak Leader. They also did not know about the Qin Alliance."
After hearing Chu Zhongyu's explanation, Yu Haoran was even more doubtful.
After that, he turned his head to look at He Ruyu, hoping to get information about the Qin Alliance from the Xiangshan Bandit Group, which had a lot of connections with the Emperor Qin's Kingdom.
Unfortunately, He Ruyu also shook her head with a doubtful expression.
"Qin Alliance!"
He closed his eyes and softly muttered the two words "Qin Alliance". He started to think about the development of the Emperor Qin's Kingdom in his previous life.
In the end, he seemed to have guessed the meaning of the Qin Alliance. He also roughly knew why Eldest Senior Brother and He Ruyu did not know about the Qin Alliance.
"Eldest Senior Brother, what do you mean?"
Although he had guessed the reason why the Emperor Qin's Kingdom held the Qin Alliance, Yu Haoran did not reveal it. He only asked Chu Zhongyu why he gave him the invitation card.
"Ninth Junior Brother, this …!"
Facing Yu Haoran's interrogation, Chu Zhongyu, who had just figured it out and adjusted his mentality, answered embarrassedly.
"Eldest Senior Brother, do you want me to represent the Hundred Chi Gate and go to Xianyang, the capital of the Emperor Qin's Kingdom to participate in the Qin Alliance?" Chu Zhongyu was too embarrassed to say it out loud. Yu Haoran easily guessed his true thoughts, so he asked straightforwardly.
"Alas!"
Since Yu Haoran had already guessed his thoughts, Chu Zhongyu did not continue to hide it and explained in detail.
It turned out that there had been more than one bloody conflict between the Hundred Chi Gate and the Emperor Qin's Kingdom because of the Limitless Border.
Although the Hundred Chi Gate's strength had declined greatly over the years because of the factional fighting, it had always been in a defensive situation and even in a state of retreat.
However, the grievances accumulated over hundreds of years would not disappear just because the Hundred Chi Gate took the initiative to retreat.
Therefore, after knowing that the participation of the Qin Alliance required one to go to Xianyang City, the capital of the Emperor Qin's Kingdom, whether it was the 12 Elders, Lieyan or Gao Luanping, they all refused to represent the Hundred Chi Gate to participate in the Qin Alliance on the grounds that they were in closed-door training to make a breakthrough.
