"If it was another city, it might be very difficult to move the Cheng family, but for Hong City, there is a huge advantage, and it is closely related to the Cheng family, that is, the entrance near Hong City!" said the Xian Yue City Lord.
"Entrance to the secular world? What does the Xian Yue City Lord mean? "Everyone was stunned, obviously not understanding what the Xian Yue City Lord meant.
There was an entrance near Hong City that led to the secular world. This was something that everyone present knew.
However, what did this have to do with the Cheng family helping them? Everyone really didn't understand.
"Vice City Lord Meng, what I mean is, although the Cheng family is in charge of all the entrances to the secular world, they do not control these entrances in the Cultivation World.
If we hand over the control of the entrance near Hong City to the Cheng family, I think the Cheng family will be willing to help our Hong City! "said the Xian Yue City Lord.
"Hand over the control of the entrance to the Cheng family? But that entrance is not our Hong City, we don't have the control of the entrance, right? How can we hand it over to the Cheng family? "said Vice City Lord Meng, puzzled.
How could he give something that he didn't even have to others?
"You can't say that, at least the entrance is in the territory of Hong City. Does Hong City not have control? If you seal the entrance, then the people of the Cheng family can forget about entering or leaving through that entrance. Therefore, Vice City Lord Meng can use this condition to seek help from the Cheng family.
As long as the Cheng family is willing to send troops to help us, then we will be saved! "said the Xian Yue City Lord.
"Will this work? I am afraid that the Cheng family will not be so easily persuaded! "said Vice City Lord Meng with some doubts.
Of course, he knew that the Cheng family could help them through this crisis, but using this method to persuade the Cheng family to send troops to help them felt a bit childish.
"Sometimes the simplest method is the most effective, otherwise, we really have nothing that can make the Cheng family take a liking to us!" said the Xian Yue City Lord after thinking for a while.
"Xian Yue City Lord, I think that even if your method succeeds, it is tantamount to leading a wolf into the house, breaking your own hands and feet!" said the Guang City Lord.
"Guang City Lord, do you think there is any problem with the Xian Yue City Lord's method?" asked Vice City Lord Meng.
"I just think that this is not appropriate. Think about it, compared to the White City Alliance, I think the Cheng family is much more terrifying." said the Guang City Lord.
"How so?" Vice City Lord Meng continued to ask.
"Some time ago, we followed City Lord Hong to the secular world. Vice City Lord Meng also knows about this!" City Lord Guang said.
"That's right!" Vice City Master Meng nodded.
"Back then, we wanted to go to the secular world precisely because the Cheng Family's power was continuously growing, and it was already affecting the interests of our cities.
Our original plan was to weaken the Cheng Family's power and not let them expand any further. But now, Xian Yue City wants to hand over the control of the entrance near Hong City to the Cheng Family. Isn't that equivalent to letting the Cheng Family expand into the cultivation world? City Lord Guang said.
"This …" Deputy City Master Meng was dazed. It seemed to make sense.
"Vice City Lord Meng, I think City Lord Guang is right. Although the entrance is within Hong City, it concerns the interests of all the nearby cities.
If you hand over the control of this entrance to the Cheng Family, won't we not only have to face the ambition of the White City Alliance to annex us, but we also have to face the threat of the Cheng Family? "City Lord Huang also said.
In this battle to protect Hong City, City Lord Huang could be said to be very active and made a great contribution to the defense of Hong City. There were even some casualties among his people.
However, the issue of handing over the control of the entrance was obviously not very agreeable to him.
They already couldn't control the Cheng Family, and if they led them to their doorstep, wouldn't that be courting death!
"Everyone, of course I understand what you mean. We really don't want the Cheng Family to continue to expand like this, but don't forget.
Even if we don't do this, do you think the Cheng Family won't continue to expand?
Moreover, the control of this entrance originally belongs to everyone, so it can even be said that the Cheng Family has a share of this control.
It's just that the Cheng Family seems to have the intention to develop in the secular world, so they don't plan to enter the cultivation world yet.
If we let them have this idea, whether we hand over the control or not, it seems that we can't stop them, right?
At the very least, this entrance is within Hong City, so Hong City has a reason to hand over the control to the Cheng Family.
What's more, this is a time of life and death for all of our cities. Look at how powerful the White City Alliance's army is, and the other cities aren't willing to send troops to support us.
How long do you think we can last like this? When the time comes, we won't even be able to protect our cities, so what use do we have for the control of this entrance? "The Xian Yue City Lord said.
"This …" Everyone looked at the densely packed army of the White City Alliance outside the city. If they didn't have even more powerful reinforcements, it would be impossible for them to drive away these enemies.
If Hong City couldn't be saved, then more cities would be lost.
If even their own city became the White City Alliance's, then what difference would it make to who had control over the entrance?
At the very least, this place was no longer their territory.
"I support the Xian Yue City Lord's idea. Based on the current situation, we definitely won't be able to defend Hong City.
When the time comes, Hong City will belong to the White City Alliance, so the entrance will naturally be under their control. It won't have anything to do with us.
Instead of letting this entrance be controlled by the White City Alliance, it's better to use it as a bargaining chip to ask the Cheng Family to send troops! "City Lord Long said.
In any case, his Long City had already been occupied by the White City Alliance. Now, the other cities were like a plate of loose sand, and they were not united at all. With just their few people, they wouldn't even be able to protect Hong City, let alone take back Long City.
If the Cheng Family could step in, not only would they be able to protect Hong City, but they could also take back Long City. Of course, he would support such a good thing.
"With this analysis, the Xian Yue City Lord's idea is indeed very meaningful. However, I'm afraid that this won't be able to convince the Cheng Family! "Vice City Lord Meng said worriedly.
After hearing City Lord Long's words, he was actually somewhat moved.
In particular, he said that if they couldn't even defend Hong City, what use would they have for the control of this entrance?
