Chapter 677: Advice
A Way to Survive
The Tianwu Auction House was jointly managed by the four great clans that ruled the Imperial City. No faction on the continent dared offend them, or else they'd be annihilated.
The Nephrite Holy Son and the four elders were worried about this.
At first, they'd guessed that Feng Hao was a disciple of some hidden clan who'd come out to gain experience. It wouldn't be a big deal to offend such a person, but things were different now. The Imperial City's Feng House was a transcendent entity to the Nephrite Sacred Land. Compared to it, it was like comparing a small hill to a towering mountain.
Therefore, they were all afraid that Feng Hao would bear a grudge. If he really did pursue the matter, the Nephrite Sacred Land would suffer a devastating blow.
"Ah! … "
The elder in the lead sighed softly, his eyes filled with unease.
The other three elders were the same. The Nephrite Holy Son had lost his former luster, and the light in his eyes dimmed. He looked a little depressed.
Making a powerful enemy for the sacred land wasn't what he wanted. What worried him was the battle in three years...
Victory?
He was afraid it'd be an even greater blow to the sacred land.
Defeat?
That might mean the sacred land was headed for defeat and destruction.
It could be said that the two paths were both dead ends!
Upon seeing this scene, the eyes of the Beimang Holy Son, who was sitting at the side, flickered, and a glint flashed through them.
"Ahem! Ahem! "
He coughed lightly a few times to attract their attention. With a gentle smile, he asked, "Do you know of the Radiant Alliance?"
"The Radiance Alliance?"
They didn't understand at first, but they quickly understood.
The current Beimang Forbidden Land was actually a subsidiary faction of the Radiance Alliance. Back then, the Radiance Alliance's invasion had caused quite a ruckus. As one of the sacred lands, how could they not know?
"Actually, you might not know, but the Radiance Alliance is planning to enter the Imperial City..."
The corners of the Beimang Holy Son's mouth curved into a meaningful smile as he spoke slowly.
"What?! The Radiance Alliance is going to enter the Imperial City?! "
The five of them were startled, and their pupils dilated.
Very few people knew about this matter, but it was no longer a secret in the eyes of the upper echelons.
All these years, the Radiance Alliance had been expanding rapidly, and they had recruited many formidable martial artists. Furthermore, they did not reject anyone. Even if they were the most evil and wicked people, they would still accept them. What's more, their slogan was to cleanse the world of evil.
Moreover, the effect was also very good. After some evil people entered, they would turn over a new leaf in a year at most. They would become good people at the level of Bodhisattva. Bemoaning the state of the universe and pitying the fate of mankind was their consistent style. Although many people had a doubtful mentality, these people would do good all their lives until they died, so no one could find fault with them.
And now, it had already expanded to the point where it could compete with the Imperial City's aristocratic families …
"That's right!"
Under their shocked gazes, Bei Mang's Holy Son slowly nodded and admitted it.
"Hiss! … "
The few of them gasped, and a trace of astonishment flashed through their eyes.
Although they knew that the Radiance Alliance was very powerful and could annihilate a Sacred Land, they had never imagined that the Radiance Alliance had already expanded to such a transcendent level.
"Since I have already told you, then I will not hide anything from you."
Bei Mang's Holy Son revealed a carefree smile and said mysteriously, "I will not hide it from you. This time, the Radiance Alliance chose the Feng Clan to enter the Imperial City!"
"What? Feng Clan? "
The few of them trembled as they looked at him with indescribable astonishment.
Didn't this mean that the Radiance Alliance wanted to chase the Feng Clan out of the Imperial City?
"Haha! Without an emperor weapon, the Feng Clan is already a toothless tiger. There is nothing to be afraid of. "
Bei Mang's Holy Son's smile was still gentle, but his words caused the hearts of the five of them to turn cold. They seemed to have seen the Northern Sea Sacred Land of the past.
This Great Alliance, which had always carried the slogan of bemoaning the state of the universe and pitying the fate of mankind, was actually a ruthless tiger. Previously, after occupying the Northern Sea Sacred Land, they were ruthless and had yet to stop their pursuit.
Now that they were facing the Feng Clan, they would probably do the same thing, right?
But this was exactly what they wanted. If the Feng Clan were to fight the Radiance Alliance, their strength would be greatly reduced...
Back in the day, the Feng Clan had entered the Imperial City and became the number one clan there. Moreover, it had persisted for a long time. Their prestige was truly awe-inspiring, and no one dared to provoke them. However, after losing their emperor weapon a few thousand years ago, the Feng Clan had been on a downward slope, falling from the number one clan to the bottom. If it weren't for their strong foundation, they would have been chased out of the Imperial City long ago!
This time, if they were to fight the Radiance Alliance, the Feng Clan's position would be in jeopardy.
However, even if they were chased out of the Imperial City, the Nephrite Sacred Land was far from being able to contend with them. A starving camel was still bigger than a horse. Annihilating the Nephrite Sacred Land was as easy as blowing off dust for the Feng Clan, so there was nothing for them to be happy about.
"In the Imperial City Battle, there will be ten matches between the younger generation. The Radiance Alliance will only be qualified to challenge the Feng Clan if they win six or more …"
The Northern Mang Holy Son smiled faintly. "I hear that the Radiance Alliance is recruiting talents. I'd like to try my luck as well. If I can win one match for the Radiance Alliance, I'm sure they won't be stingy with the rewards."
His words immediately stirred the hearts of the others.
That's right, if they helped the Radiance Alliance in this matter, the Radiance Alliance wouldn't sit idly by when the Feng Clan came looking for trouble with the Nephrite Sacred Land in the future.
With the Radiance Alliance's support, they wouldn't have to fear the Feng Clan's vengeance!
The Northern Mang Holy Son's lips curved up imperceptibly when he saw their expressions.
He'd done a great service this time!
"Northern Mang Holy Son, how does the Radiance Alliance recruit us?"
The Nephrite Holy Son hadn't fully recovered yet, so the old man in the lead asked when he caught the Holy Son's gaze.
After all, they were afraid of being swallowed up by the Radiance Alliance.
"Haha!"
How could the Northern Mang Holy Son not understand what they were thinking? He explained, "When this is over, I'll still be the Northern Mang Holy Son, and I'll be rewarded handsomely by the Radiance Alliance. Of course, I can also choose to pledge allegiance to the Radiance Alliance."
"So that's how it is."
The group heaved a collective sigh of relief.
If that was the case, they could still accept it.
"Many thanks for the information, Northern Mang Holy Son!"
The old man cupped his hands at the Northern Mang Holy Son, flashing the classic smile of someone who'd been sold and still helped count the money.
"Haha, what are you saying, senior? Helping our alliance head through this crisis is my duty as an elder."
The smile on the Northern Mang Holy Son's face deepened.
The more they conversed, the more harmonious they became. Soon, they were as close as a family.
