According to their understanding, apart from the Sword Cry Sect, which was a third-grade sect, the rest of the sects in this so-called alliance were mostly second-grade forces. They didn't even have a Wu Huang to oversee them.
Of course, there were two or three third-grade sects among them, but the strength of their sect masters was below that of the third-grade Wu Huang, so they were nothing to be afraid of.
Even if they gathered an army of a million, without a powerful leader to lead them, they would still be a pile of loose sand.
Fei Teng knew that the dragon and phoenix sitting on his back was not someone to be trifled with. Just the aura of the phoenix that leaked from the dragon and phoenix almost suffocated him, and he could not help but want to bow down in front of him.
"Brother Dragon and Phoenix, please don't make a big fuss when you arrive," Zhong Shudao advised. He was well aware of the strength of the dragon and phoenix. Apart from Lin Yun, the dragon and phoenix were probably the strongest in the Northern Region Army.
Such a master was not someone that the Sword Cry Sect and the other sects could resist.
"I'll only protect you." The dragon and phoenix lowered their heads, unwilling to speak anymore.
Zhong Shudao revealed a bitter smile. How could he not know the reason why Lin Yun sent the dragon and phoenix along?
However, he thought that the sect master of the Sword Cry Sect had been his good friend for decades, so such a thing would not happen.
After a while, Fei Teng said softly, "Lord Zhong, the Sword Cry Sect is just ahead."
A city appeared in front of them. Looking down from above, the crowd was densely packed, and it was quite a spectacular sight.
"I haven't been here for many years. I wonder how Old Jian is doing." Zhong Shudao revealed a sincere smile and instructed Fei Teng to descend.
After a while, the three of them arrived on the ground. However, before they could get close, they were stopped by four burly men.
"Stop! This is the Sword Cry Sect. Unauthorized people are not allowed to trespass! " These four burly men had a dignified aura. They were all dressed in white robes with a thin sword embroidered on their chests. Obviously, they were disciples of the Sword Cry Sect.
"Little brother, please inform Sect Master Jian that Zhong Shudao requests an audience." Zhong Shudao smiled softly.
"Zhong Shudao?"
"The vice sect master of the Ruyi Sect …"
For a moment, the four men looked at each other. Obviously, they didn't expect Zhong Shudao to appear here.
"Mister Zhong, please wait for a moment. I will go and report this immediately!" A burly man bowed to Zhong Shudao and immediately ran into the sect.
"Zhong Shudao, you'd better be careful," the Dragon and Phoenix Beast said in a strange tone after the burly man left.
"Why do you say that?" Zhong Shudao turned to look at the Dragon-Phoenix Beast and asked doubtfully.
"Just now, when we looked down from above, we saw many people in the city."
"That's not surprising. The Sword Cry Sect has always been with the sect. Moreover, this place is located in a bustling area, so it's normal for there to be a lot of people coming and going." Zhong Shudao didn't take this matter to heart.
The corners of the Dragon-Phoenix Beast's lips curled up, revealing a cold smile. "Ninety percent of them are cultivators, and less than ten percent are mortals."
The Dragon and Phoenix Beasts were naturally sensitive, and their Divine Senses were second only to Lin Yun's. From the moment he set foot here, he had already sensed that this city was not simple.
There were actually more than a million cultivators in a city. Something must have happened.
At this moment, a hearty laugh reached everyone's ears. "Shudao! Long time no see. How have you been? "
Everyone looked up and saw a man in his early forties. He wore a sleeveless shirt and his arms were exposed. His muscles bulged and his skin was bronze in color. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he looked rough. This man was the Sect Leader of the Sword Cry Sect, Yi Jian.
"Old Jian!" Zhong Shudao saw Yi Jian and the two of them immediately embraced.
"What brings you here? Come, come, let's find a place to catch up. " Yi Jian laughed heartily. Then, he glanced at the Dragon and Phoenix Beast and Fei Pei. He frowned and said with some mockery, "Isn't this the Sect Leader of the Spiritual Beast Sect, Sect Leader Fei?"
The matter of the Spiritual Beast Sect surrendering to the Northern Region Army had already caused an uproar. However, Yi Jian didn't know that Fei Pei would actually appear here.
"Sect Leader Jian." Fei Pei cupped his hands and smiled. The Dragon and Phoenix Beast stood at the side and didn't pay attention to Yi Jian. He was now thinking about why so many cultivators had gathered in this city for no reason.
It was impossible for the Sword Cry Sect to gather a million soldiers.
Then, the only possibility was that the dozen sects that the Sword Cry Sect had allied with had all gathered here today to discuss something.
After a while, Yi Jian led the three of them to the guest room of the Sword Cry Sect. He even ordered some food and wine to be served. He was prepared to catch up with Zhong Shudao.
"There are no less than 20 Wu Huangs in the city." The Dragon and Phoenix Beast secretly transmitted their voices to Zhong Shudao.
Zhong Shudao seemed to be deep in thought. He smiled and continued to drink and chat with Yi Jian.
"Dao of Calligraphy, now that you're here, you must stay here for a few days." Yi Jian sighed and patted Zhong Shudao's shoulder regretfully. "My condolences about the Ru Yi Sect."
He had been friends with Zhong Shudao since he was young. When he grew up, he became the Sect Leader of the Sword Cry Sect, while Zhong Shudao became the Vice Sect Leader of the Ru Yi Sect.
When the Four Major Sects had dominated the Northeastern Region, Yi Jian had chosen to become a slave of the Four Major Sects in order to protect his sect.
Over the years, he had secretly provided resources to the Ru Yi Sect many times.
"Old Jian, I've come this time because I have something to tell you." Zhong Shudao wanted to get straight to the point. He knew that Yi Jian definitely knew that he was here on behalf of Tu Shenzong.
Indeed, Yi Jian's raised hand froze in mid-air after hearing Zhong Shudao's words. After taking a deep breath, Yi Jian looked at Zhong Shudao and said calmly, "Shudao, as a friend, I welcome you."
"But now, you are already a sparrow on a branch. You have become a phoenix."
"If you're here on behalf of Lin Yun's envoy, please leave."
Zhong Shudao was not surprised to hear this. Instead, he took a sip of wine.
Although he was a peak rank 5 Wu Huang, he had never advocated martial strength. After joining Tu Shenzong, he mostly helped Lin Yun deal with internal affairs.
"The other Sect Leaders have arrived, right? You're here to discuss how to help the Hundred Possibilities Sect, right? "Zhong Shudao did not reveal his emotions and sneered.
It was not hard to see that Yi Jian seemed to be against the Northern Region's army. Currently, only the Hundred Possibilities Sect's army was comparable to the Sword Cry Sect's alliance in the Northeastern Region.
Moreover, there were at least 20 Wu Huangs in the city. The other sects must have gathered in the Sword Cry Sect to discuss something.
