At this point, everyone understood the purpose of this mission.
It was very simple. Tomb's leader had already considered that even if the Underworld and the Sacred Alliance formed an alliance, it would be unrealistic for them to completely defeat the Celestial Realm.
If the two sides were in a deadlock and the Celestial Realm fought to the death for the Celestial Realm's Saintess, the Sacred Alliance would most likely sue for peace and release the Celestial Realm's Saintess.
This was not what Tomb wanted to see.
This organization only wished to see the world in chaos. What they wanted to see was the Sacred Alliance, the Underworld, and the Celestial Realm fight to the death.
The three people on this mission were the Sacred Alliance's Deputy Alliance Master, the Sacred Alliance's Sacred Leader, and the Yellow Emperor's former direct disciple. All three of them had an inseparable relationship with the Sacred Alliance.
Therefore, if the three of them captured the Celestial Realm's Saintess, the Celestial Realm would blame it on the Sacred Alliance. In this way, the Sacred Alliance would completely lose the bargaining chip to sue for peace and could only fight to the death with the Celestial Realm. Even if it did not work out, the conflict between the Celestial Realm and the Sacred Alliance would only deepen.
In this way, Tomb could sit back and reap the benefits.
Lin Yun and the other two looked at Purplewing Maniac with calm expressions on their faces. However, each of them had their own ulterior motives.
Whether it was Lin Yun, Ye Lantian, or Yinshi, none of them had placed Tomb's so-called mission first.
Lin Yun guessed that Tomb's purpose was definitely not that simple.
Apart from this obvious purpose, Tomb had another unstated purpose. He wanted to obtain the Celestial Realm's Saintess as a bargaining chip and hold this bargaining chip in his hands.
This was because when Tomb and the Celestial Realm went to war, the Celestial Realm's Saintess would become the best weapon against the Celestial Realm.
Lin Yun knew that Tomb wanted to find out if he was lying from the Celestial Realm's Saintess after killing the Storm Dragon King.
After all, when Lin Yun killed the Storm Dragon King, he had lied that the Celestial Realm's Saintess had taken the wind element core.
As long as they obtained the Celestial Realm's Saintess, they could get to the bottom of everything.
However, Mu had taken everything for granted. They didn't know that the Heaven Realm's Holy Maiden was actually Lin Yun's subordinate. Her true identity was also one of the Primordial Shrine's 72 Martial Saints.
Even if the Celestial Saintess ended up in Tomb's hands, she would help Lin Yun. would be.
"I hope the three of you can complete this mission well." Madman Purplewing stared at the three of them and said solemnly, "Tomb doesn't care what conflicts you had in the past. Since you've become a member of Tomb, you must prioritize the mission."
The following meeting was nothing more than a discussion about when the Celestial Realm, the Sacred Alliance, and the Underworld would go to war.
"There's no clear information about this yet, but it shouldn't be far," Madman Purplewing said.
At the same time, in the outside world.
The entire Celestial Realm was in an uproar.
The Sacred Alliance had just been promoted to the Fifth Sacred Land. Before they could consolidate their strength, they had joined forces with the Underworld to declare war on the Celestial Realm.
Although the news of the Celestial Realm's Saintess being captured by the Sacred Alliance had spread like wildfire, the Celestial Realm and the Sacred Alliance had never made a clear statement about this.
Everyone was waiting with trepidation. The war between the three Sacred Lands was bound to change the entire Celestial Realm.
Although wars between the Sacred Lands had not happened in the past hundred years, Emperor Wu rarely showed up.
This time, the main battlefield was set in the Sacred Alliance. Samsara Heavenly Emperor, Jiuquan Underworld Emperor, and the Space Lord would definitely appear in person.
Such a scene had not been seen since the destruction of the Eternal Shrine a hundred years ago.
Naturally, this war concerned the three Sacred Lands. As for the remaining Sacred Lands, the Tide Realm governed by Zixia Fairy and the Senluo Realm governed by the Senluo Empress, their attitudes became extremely important.
However, what the outside world did not know was that the leaders of the Gang of Ten, the Seven Blades Sect, and the Ghost Face Sect, who originally belonged to The Seven Devils, had gone to the Sacred Alliance to accept the invitation of the Space Lord.
After the leaders of the Gang of Ten and the Seven Blades Sect had negotiated with the Sacred Alliance, they had returned to their bases. The leader of the Ghost Face Sect, Lan Fengyuan, had arrived late.
At the Lord Peak, the Sacred Temple was heavily guarded. Two figures were standing on the edge of the cliff.
On the left was a tall and thin middle-aged man with a divine sword on his back. He was the leader of the Excalibur Sect, Jian Xiaoyao.
As for the person standing next to him, his blue hair was raised towards the sky. The smile that was usually on his face was now gone, replaced by a look of sorrow.
"Sigh … How many years has it been since I last saw such a scene?" Without a doubt, the person standing next to Jian Xiaoyao was the leader of the Ghost Face Sect, the Personality Lord, Lan Fengyuan.
Jian Xiaoyao picked up the wine gourd at his waist and took a sip. "That's right. You escaped decades ago and never came back to visit, right?"
Lan Fengyuan's face darkened. Back then, in order to study the power of the bloodline, he had captured many soldiers of the Sacred Alliance as experimental subjects. In the end, he was wanted by the Sacred Alliance. In desperation, he could only betray the Sacred Alliance and set up his own sect.
Now, the Seven Devils had almost completely fallen out with the Sacred Alliance.
Although there was still the Anti-Alliance Contract between the two parties, it was like an empty contract to them now.
Now that the Yellow Emperor had been promoted to Emperor Wu, even if the Anti-Union Religion and the Seven Devils formed an alliance again, they would not be able to fight against the Sacred Alliance like before.
Today, Lan Fengyuan had struggled a lot before he decided to keep the appointment.
The day of war between the Celestial realm and the Sacred Alliance was not far away. The Sacred Alliance must be trying to recruit more people during this time.
To put it bluntly, they were here to be cannon fodder. Naturally, the Sacred Alliance had to give them a price.
"Sect Leader Jian, you and I are acquaintances. There's no need to beat around the bush. Just say it." Lan Fengyuan pondered and went straight to the point. He would feel uncomfortable if he stayed here for another second.
"You still have the same temper." Jian Xiaoyao smiled and continued, "My request is simple. This time, when the Sacred Alliance goes to war, the Ghost Face Sect has to contribute. The outcome is not important."
Lan Fengyuan was silent for a long time before he smiled bitterly. "Fang Mingguang and Luo Tianying have agreed. Also, Tian Yin?"
At this point, Lan Fengyuan remembered that a few months ago, the Intelligence Faction had completely surrendered to the Sacred Alliance and became a pawn of the Sacred Alliance.
In such a battle, Tian Yin naturally needed to contribute his strength.
