Lin Yun had originally thought that the Sacred Alliance had sent five Wu Sheng's to capture him because of what he had done previously.
Another reason was that they had sent five Wu Sheng's to capture him because of the incident with the Purple Flame Devil Blade.
However, Ji Leshan's words seemed to confirm that the Sacred Alliance's reason for doing this was not that simple.
Apart from these two reasons, Lin Yun could not think of any other reason for the Sacred Alliance to send five Wu Sheng's.
"The Ancient Sage," Ji Leshan continued to remind him.
Lin Yun suddenly understood. Back when he was in the Sky Martial Continent, he had killed many Ancient Sages in the Sacred Palace of the Ancient Sage. These Ancient Sages were the collateral descendants of the 'Five Founding Elders' of the Sacred Alliance. So this was the real fuse.
"I still don't understand." Lin Yun continued to raise his doubts. Did this have anything to do with Ji Leshan's tip-off?
"The Dark Sect," Ji Leshan reminded him again.
Hearing these three words, Lin Yun was not too surprised. He leaned back on the chair and drank his wine calmly.
Things gradually became clear. Due to some matters, the Dark Sect could not help the Northeast Region, so they could only give the Northeast Region to Lin Yun.
However, the Dark Sect could not take this lying down, so they secretly told the people of the Sacred Alliance that Lin Yun had killed the Ancient Sage.
The Dark Sect knew many things about Lin Yun. This was something Lin Yun knew.
However, what puzzled Lin Yun was that didn't The Seven Devils and the Sacred Alliance were fighting against the Sacred Alliance.
Why did the Dark Sect choose to tip-off the Sacred Alliance just to take revenge on him?
It seemed like the so-called alliance was not unbreakable.
"The Dark Sect did something wrong, so I also did something wrong. I was supposed to be a businessman." Ji Leshan shook his head helplessly, his words ambiguous.
However, Lin Yun knew that the Darkness Sect's actions might have violated the rules of the Saint Church. However, due to the Darkness Sect's current usefulness to the Saint Church, the Saint Church informed Lin Yun of this news through the Sea King Island.
Come to think of it, the Holy Church didn't want Tu Shenzong to die too early.
This way, the God Massacring Sect and the Darkness Sect would be able to form a balance. This was the most beneficial thing for the Holy Church.
Lin Yun was not stupid enough to believe that Ji Leshan had the authority to obtain this information.
The reason why Ji Leshan did this must have been authorized by the higher-ups. This was also why Ji Leshan said that he was supposed to be a businessman.
Businessmen only cared about profit and did not care about the affairs of the Jianghu.
However, it was obvious that Ji Leshan's actions this time had crossed the line.
Ji Leshan's words gave Lin Yun some understanding of this new era.
In reality, both the Sacred Alliance and the Anti-Union Religion had spies from each other, but they did not infiltrate the higher-ups.
Both of them turned a blind eye to this matter.
After all, these spies did not come into contact with anything important.
If one side insisted on eliminating the spies, the other side would definitely do their best to eliminate the spies.
Keeping the spies was a win-win situation for both sides, so no one would break this balance.
This was also why the Anti-Saint Church Alliance received the news that the Sacred Alliance was going to capture Lin Yun immediately.
As for Lin Yun destroying the Assassination Association and starting a war with the Dark Sect, the Anti-Union Religion did not care at all.
On the surface, the Seven Devils and the Saint Church were in an alliance. However, in reality, the Saint Church still looked down on the Seven Devils and did not think that the Seven Devils could be on equal footing with them.
To put it bluntly, with the Saint Church's strength, even if they lost a demon sect, they could still nurture another one.
In their eyes, the Seven Demon Sects were just cannon fodder in the war between them and the Sacred Alliance. They were just the icing on the cake.
Moreover, the actions of the Dark Sect this time had touched the bottom line of the Saint Church. Hence, some of the higher-ups of the Saint Church even suggested to assist Tu Shenzong to destroy the Dark Sect and make Tu Shenzong the new demon sect.
Of course, most of the higher-ups chose to wait and see. After all, both the Dark Sect and Tu Shenzong were just pawns in their eyes. There was no need to fear them.
In fact, Lin Yun understood some of this. After all, his Aeonic Shrine had also slowly grown from a small sect to a colossus in the Divine Territory. Hence, he was already used to such schemes.
However, Lin Yun did not accept the Saint Church's invitation because he did not want to have anything to do with these forces.
After a while, Ji Leshan seemed to recall something and said softly to Lin Yun, "Oh yes, I can give you a piece of news."
"I heard that apart from you, the Sacred Alliance also wants to capture one of your subordinates, Yasuo."
"What's strange is that they want to capture you because of the Ancient Saint."
"However, even our spies don't know why they want to capture Yasuo.
This seems to be a very confidential matter among their higher-ups. " Ji Leshan looked at Lin Yun with interest. This matter puzzled him. One of Lin Yun's subordinates was even more valued by the Sacred Alliance than Lin Yun.
This matter was indeed a little strange. Even the higher-ups of the Saint Church could not figure out why the Sacred Alliance wanted to do this.
They had even investigated Yasuo's background and discovered that he was just an insignificant person. They did not understand why the Sacred Alliance would make such a big move.
Lin Yun was silent. Others might not know, but how could he not know?
It was likely that the higher-ups of the Sacred Alliance had seen through the Purple Flame Devil Saber.
After all, Dao Ying was the one who had taken the Purple Flame Devil Saber from Yasuo. They would naturally think that this saber had originally belonged to Yasuo and that Yasuo was related to the Aeonic Shrine.
Poor Yasuo. He had been shot while lying down. Who knew how he would feel when he found out that he was on the list of the Sacred Alliance?
Ji Leshan was very tactful. He did not pursue the matter if Lin Yun did not say anything. This was very much to Lin Yun's liking.
"And among the five emissaries this time, one of them is someone you know."
Lin Yun smiled. He knew who this person was. It was Xiao Dao, or rather, the blue-robed Dao Ying.
Previously, he had accidentally removed the Immortal Limitation Seal in Xiao Dao's body, allowing the Sacred Alliance to gain another general.
After such a long time, Dao Ying's strength should have completely recovered and reached the Rank Five Wu Sheng realm.
After all, with the power of the Sacred Alliance, as long as the Immortal Limitation Seal in Dao Ying's body disappeared, it would not be difficult for them to restore Dao Ying's strength to its peak.
