"I can understand your feelings. Back then, we were also conflicted, but I've thought it through now.
It doesn't matter if the outer court belongs to the dynasty or the holy dynasty.
Think about it, why would we submit to the dynasty? "Outer King Eastcalm said to the Grand Elder and the others.
Clearly, after witnessing Cheng Yu's powerful strength, the elders no longer had the impulse they had before. This was the best opportunity for him to persuade these elders.
If he could convince them without a battle, that would definitely be for the best.
If he killed them, even if he and Cheng Yu chose seven new elders from the outer court, the strength of these newly chosen elders would definitely be far inferior to these seven.
Therefore, if he could directly persuade them to submit, that would definitely be the best outcome. It was also the outcome that Outer King Eastcalm hoped to see the most.
To Cheng Yu, he also hoped that the path of annexation would be smoother. Clearly, there were stronger elders in charge now, so he naturally hoped that these elders would be more sensible.
Although the attack just now had caused some damage to the seven Principal Elders, it would be best if they could use this damage to understand their own situation and choose the right path.
Therefore, he didn't plan on stopping Outer King Eastcalm from persuading the seven elders. He tried his best to ensure the integrity of the outer court. If he could keep every expert from the outer court, it would definitely be very successful.
Furthermore, there were still a few outer court matters waiting for him to deal with. He didn't want to stay here for too long.
"Of course it's because the dynasty is powerful. Furthermore, all the cities in the world are under the dynasty's control. Do we have any other choice?" Third Elder said matter-of-factly.
"That's right. It's precisely because the dynasty is powerful and almost the entire world is in the hands of the dynasty. By following the dynasty, we can be considered to have a backer.
More importantly, we really don't have any other choice. If we betray the dynasty, only death awaits us.
Therefore, none of us want to die so unjustly, right? "Outer King Eastcalm said.
"Of course. If we wanted to betray the dynasty, we would have died countless times long ago. How could we still be here today?" Third Elder said with a nod.
"In the past, we had no choice, but it's different now. We have another choice," Outer King Eastcalm said.
"But how can a holy dynasty compare to a dynasty? How much land did a dynasty occupy in the world? What about a dynasty? How much territory does it have in this world? "The Fifth Elder did not think that the Sacred Dynasty could be compared to a dynasty.
There was no point in choosing between the two. If the Sacred Dynasty was as powerful as the other dynasties, they would not have to be so conflicted.
No matter which faction they chose to rely on, they should be safe.
However, although the Sacred Dynasty had caused a lot of trouble for the dynasty in the past few years, and the dynasty did not have a way to get rid of the Sacred Dynasty in a short period of time.
However, they believed that the Sacred Dynasty would never be able to achieve what a dynasty had achieved. Moreover, the faster the Sacred Dynasty grew, the more likely it was that it would be destroyed by a dynasty.
It was not only because the Sacred Dynasty had swallowed up the resources of the other dynasties, but also because it would be easy to expose its power if it grew too powerful.
Right now, the Sacred Dynasty was still small, so they could appear and disappear unpredictably. The dynasty did not even know where the Sacred Dynasty's base was, so it was indeed difficult to eliminate the Sacred Dynasty.
However, if they were powerful enough, would they still be able to steal the resources of the empires without anyone noticing?
Therefore, if they followed the Sacred Dynasty, the chances of them being destroyed by the dynasty would be too high.
"Let's not talk about the strength of the Sacred Dynasty compared to the strength of the empires. Let me tell you the most realistic and direct question now.
If you choose to follow the Young Master, you can live today. If you choose any other path, only death awaits you.
Think about it. If all of you die, so what if the empires are stronger than the Sacred Dynasty?
Even if the empires destroy the Sacred Dynasty in the future, what does it have to do with you?
Moreover, can the empires really destroy the Sacred Dynasty? You've seen the Young Master's strength. Even in the inner court, I'm afraid not many people can compete with the Young Master.
I believe that even if the Sacred Dynasty has a powerhouse like the Young Master, it should at least have a Lord, right?
The Young Master is already so powerful. Will the Lord of the Sacred Dynasty be weaker than the Lord of the empires?
Not necessarily.
Therefore, if you choose to follow the Young Master now, not only will you survive, but we might even be able to see the Sacred Dynasty destroy the Sacred Dynasty one day! "Outer Prince Eastcalm tried his best to convince these people.
He had no other choice now. He had made a Heavenly Blood Oath. Although this blood oath could be removed, who could?
At least, he had never heard of anyone removing the Heavenly Blood Oath. He was now one step away from ascending to the Immortal World. He didn't want to fail at the last moment.
Therefore, since he had already joined the Sacred Dynasty, he could only think for the Sacred Dynasty.
Moreover, he could only hope that the Sacred Dynasty could really defeat the empires. This way, at least he wasn't forced to make the choice back then, but at least he didn't make the wrong choice.
"…" The few elders in charge fell silent. They had to admit that the Outer Prince's persuasion was very effective.
At least they now believed that Cheng Yu was really strong. He was so strong that he wasn't even on the same level as them.
If they didn't make the right choice today, they might really die here.
After all, the Outer Prince was now a member of the Sacred Dynasty. Therefore, he knew how the Sacred Dynasty would treat them.
"Now that things have come to this, we don't seem to have any other choice. We don't want to die. We only hope that the Sacred Dynasty can really protect us from being annihilated by the empires! "The few elders in charge looked at each other before the Great Elder said.
"Don't worry. Although the empires are strong, our Sacred Dynasty isn't weak either. If they want to annihilate our Sacred Dynasty, it won't be that easy.
I can tell you all without hiding anything. If the Sacred Dynasty is annihilated, even if the empires survive, they are destined to be replaced by other forces! "Cheng Yu said.
"Is the Sacred Dynasty really so powerful?" When the few elders in charge heard Cheng Yu's words, they felt a lot more relieved. However, they also had a lot of doubts about this.
"Regardless of whether it's true or not, you have no other choice now, right?" Cheng Yu smiled faintly.
"This …" Everyone was stunned. This was true. As long as they didn't want to die, this was the only way to survive.
"Since it's so, then you guys should make a Heavenly Blood Oath. Your Outer Prince has also made an oath!" Cheng Yu said directly.
"We still have to make a Heavenly Blood Oath?" Everyone was somewhat unhappy.
It was already very good for them to agree to follow the Sacred Dynasty. Now, they actually wanted them to make a Heavenly Blood Oath. This was clearly not giving them any way out.
"Otherwise, why do you think I believe that you won't betray me? If you let us see that you are obedient and loyal to the Outer Prince, then I can save you from doing this.
Unfortunately, the position of the Outer Prince in your heart is not as important as the empires in your heart.
Since it's like this, I naturally won't believe you! "Cheng Yu said without any trace of politeness.
If there was no need for them to make a Heavenly Blood Oath, then why would he spend so much time to come to the Eastern Peace Outer Dynasty and set up this trap for them?
Although the status of the elders in charge was still a distance away from the Outer Dynasty, their significance to the entire Outer Dynasty was equally great.
Therefore, he would never allow anyone to be outside of his control in the external court that he had control over.
"We …" Cheng Yu's words made the few elders in charge very embarrassed.
The Outer Prince was just beside them. Although the Outer Prince had tried his best to persuade them from the beginning and had told them everything clearly, they still didn't listen.
However, they still didn't listen to Cheng Yu. It was only until they had personally fought against Cheng Yu did they truly understand what Outer King meant.
Thinking about it this way, they were indeed not loyal enough to the Outer Prince.
They should have known from the beginning that the Outer Prince wasn't the kind of person who would easily betray him. But now, he was helping the Sacred Dynasty to persuade them. This meant that he had a better understanding of the Sacred Dynasty.
At the same time, the Outer Prince had no choice but to join the Sacred Dynasty because he couldn't defeat Cheng Yu.
Therefore, after thinking about it carefully, they understood that they had actually misunderstood the Outer Prince.
And now, Cheng Yu had directly put it out there. It really made them feel very embarrassed.
"You don't have to say anything else. Make a Heavenly Blood Oath. From now on, we will still control the Eastcalm Outer Dynasty together." The Outer Prince didn't really care about this matter.
It was already the greatest fortune that these people didn't choose to fight to the death. After all, this matter concerned their lives. They didn't listen to him and chose to walk their own path. There was nothing wrong with that.
"Outer Prince, we're sorry. We understand!" Hearing the Outer Prince's words, the Great Elder didn't hesitate anymore. He made a Heavenly Blood Oath in front of everyone.
Following that, the other Principal Elders also made a Heavenly Dao Blood Oath.
In this way, Cheng Yu finally took in all the most important figures in the Eastcalm Outer Dynasty.
With these people around, even if the other people in the Outer Dynasty had bad intentions, they would know how to solve these problems even without Cheng Yu around.
Similarly, in order to maintain close contact with the Eastcalm Outer Dynasty, the creation of communication jade slips was absolutely indispensable in controlling the Outer Dynasty.
After passing the method to the elders, Cheng Yu didn't stay for long. The next day, he left the Eastern Calm Outer Court.
