One person intimidated the Cultivation Alliance. It wasn't that the sects were afraid of him, but at least no one dared to openly oppose him. Strength determined status, this was something that everyone was well aware of. If Yue Qianchou's side had lost the previous battle, the sects would've forced him to cough up 60 million spirit stones, and that would've been a light punishment. There were probably a lot of people who wanted to get rid of him.
"Yue Qianchou, it's not like anyone is scheming against you. Everyone is willing to fork out money because they want some benefits. Otherwise, the sects wouldn't throw away the spirit stones they've worked so hard to save. But you've also suffered heavy losses. We're all members of the Cultivation Alliance, so it's not right to ask for anything from you. Forget it, the Blood Demon Palace won't bring this up again. "Wen Zhongping waved his hand generously and returned to the Blood Demon Palace's side as if nothing had happened.
Hearing this, Zhu Xianxian was so angry that he nearly crushed his own teeth. Did the Daluo Sect not suffer heavy losses? Did the Daluo Sect not belong to the Alliance of Cultivators? Did the Daluo Sect have to ask for something from the Alliance of Cultivators?
He was angry, but he also understood that in the cultivation world, there were always superfluous things. Sending help in a snowy weather was nonsense. As long as there were benefits to be gained, there would be endless cases of people taking advantage of the situation. If it were someone else, the Daluo Sect would've done the same. In the cultivation world, not protecting one's own interests was the same as cutting off one's own path to survival.
"The Blood Demon Palace has already set an example. Can the Hexapath Demon Sect still be a villain?" Yuan Jiukui laughed and walked back, waving his hand as he walked. "This matter is over, over."
The other sects didn't say anything either. It was as if doing something like this was normal. No one would feel embarrassed. In the grand scheme of things, it wasn't for personal benefits. They were fighting for the entire sect. What was there to be embarrassed about?
Luo Kun's face was ashen. Everyone in the Daluo Sect was silent, having experienced the fickleness of the world. As the second largest sect of the righteous path, once they lost their power, they were still worthless.
None of them were good! Yue Qianchou sneered.
Quan Deming of the Supporting Immortal Island coughed and looked around at the crowd. "Since there are no other opinions, when the reinforcements from the Daluo Sect arrive tomorrow, the 263 sects of the Cultivation Alliance will coordinate according to the original plan and strive to annihilate the Wuji Island in one fell swoop, eliminating a major threat to the Chinese cultivation world."
While everyone was nodding in agreement, someone suddenly said, "Elder Quan, if the foreign cultivators of the Limitless Island are defeated, it's more likely that they will flee to the south. My Sword Sect leads the thirty-six sects, and we defend the south. Although there are many people in the thirty-six sects, there aren't many people with profound cultivation bases. In order to prevent any accidents, how about this? Wasn't Yue Qianchou and the other rogue cultivators not included in the original plan? Why don't you coordinate with us to guard the south as well? This way, I'm sure it'll be much safer. "
When everyone heard this, they looked over and saw Duan Tianbo of the Sword Sect making his plans. Only then did everyone remember that the combat strength of Yue Qianchou's subordinates was obvious to all. They were extremely powerful. As long as the other side didn't send a late-stage Tribulation Passing expert, the remaining 400 people should have no problem dealing with one or two thousand people.
His words woke everyone up from their dreams, and the various sects immediately became active. The Sword Sect, which was ranked fourth among the righteous sects, had jumped out. How could the Hexapath Demonic Sect, which was ranked fourth among the demonic sects, let it play a one-man show? Putting the demonic sects' face aside, they couldn't let go of such a great benefit.
Yuan Jiukui chuckled and said, "Duan Tianbo, you're wrong. In my opinion, the Wuji Island is just a motley crew. Once they lose, it's unlikely that they will flee to the south. Think about it, the Supporting Immortal Island is in the south with tens of thousands of disciples and experts. If they flee to the south, they will definitely be worried about being attacked by the Supporting Immortal Island. Therefore, it's unlikely that they will flee to the south. "
"Yuan Jiukui, according to what you said, do you think they will give up what's close at hand and go to the east?" Duan Tianbo sneered with disdain.
"That's right. Once they lose, they will most likely take a detour to the east." Yuan Jiukui gestured to the crowd and said, "If we go south, even if we pass through the Supporting Immortal Island, we will reach the vast Demon Ghost Domain. Do you think that the motley crew of Everlasting Island can cross the Demon Ghost Domain and go back? That should be impossible. "
Speaking of the Demon Domain, Duan Tianbo was stunned. Even he didn't believe that anyone could cross the Demon Domain. Since he couldn't find any reason to refute, he could only look at Yuan Jiukui with a sullen face and continue, "Fleeing to the west is the hinterland of the Chinese Cultivation World. Not to mention the frontline of defense, if you go deeper, you'll find sentries everywhere. Once you're defeated, the sects entrenched there won't let you off easily. There's no need to mention the north. That's the closest route for them to escape. That's why we gathered our strongest forces to attack from the north. That's why the north isn't suitable for them to escape. "
After saying that, Yuan Jiukui hugged his stomach and looked at everyone. He laughed and said, "In that case, we don't have to worry about the south, west, and north. The place that we need to focus on is the east. That's why I feel that Yue Qianchou and the other wandering cultivators should coordinate with us to defend the east. That way, we won't be able to block them all, but we can at least reduce the number of fish that slip through the net. "
The debate was well-founded and the demonic sects cheered, while the righteous sects looked inferior in comparison. The Six Path Demonic Sect's late-stage Tribulation Transcendence Revered Elders slightly nodded and looked at Yuan Jiukui with praise. Yuan Jiukui slightly bowed to the elders and retreated. He seemed to be quite proud of himself.
The Daluo Sect's Luo Kun glanced coldly at Zhu Xianxian. He had also heard that Yuan Jiukui and Yue Qianchou had almost fought in the Hundred Flower Valley. However, Yuan Jiukui had expressed goodwill toward Yue Qianchou several times, and after that, he and Yue Qianchou had gotten along peacefully. How could he be like this fellow who couldn't distinguish the severity of the situation?
When Luo Kun compared the two sides, he couldn't help but feel sick in his heart. They were both external managers of their sects, but the disparity between them wasn't small. My Da Luo Sect simply picked a pig to be the manager.
The Allure Beauty glanced at Yue Qianchou, only to see him crossing his arms in front of his chest. Although this matter involved him, he didn't say a word. Half of his eyebrows were raised, and it seemed like the cold smile on his face never stopped. Luo Kun couldn't help but shake his head. These people's words were better than singing. Could it be that Yue Qianchou was that good of a manager? If that was the case, then he wouldn't be Yue Qianchou.
Quan Deming looked at the various sects inquiringly. Seeing that no one said anything, he nodded and said, "Since that's the case, all wandering cultivators will return to the east."
Yuan Jiukui immediately beamed with joy as he looked at Yue Qianchou with a smile that said, "We're on the same side now." Who would have thought that Yue Qianchou would greet him with a face full of ridicule? Yuan Jiukui couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. This fellow was too daring. Who did he learn this from? Yuan Jiukui was really afraid that Yue Qianchou would do something bad at the critical moment.
"Yue Qianchou, do you have any objections?" Yuan Jiukui had no choice but to ask in advance so that no one would stab him in the back.
When the various sects heard this, they looked at Yue Qianchou and found that this fellow's indifferent attitude was really thought-provoking! The Sword Sect's Duan Tianbo was instantly amused. Or rather, he was gloating. Who could make this fellow's decision?
As expected, Yue Qianchou looked Yuan Jiukui up and down and said in a strange tone, "You're asking me what opinions I have? You all turned a blind eye to me and made the decision first. Now you're asking me what opinions I have? It's the first time I've seen such an unreasonable person in the cultivation world. "
Putting aside Yuan Jiukui's embarrassment, the one who was the most embarrassed was Fuxian Island's Quan Deming. It seemed like he was the one who made the final decision. Quan Deming opened his mouth and said with a bitter smile, "I've been negligent. Yue Qianchou, you don't have to be calculative. If you have anything to say, you might as well say it."
"I have to give face to Elder Quan, and I've always been an honest person. I won't beat around the bush. Since that's the case, I'll speak the truth. If there's anything unpleasant in my words, please don't take it to heart."
Yue Qianchou glanced at the various sects and slowly said, "I've already been schemed against before I even arrived. Whether you all admit it or not, it's a fact that everyone is well aware of. I originally came here with a bellyful of hot-bloodedness. I wanted to do my utmost for the Chinese cultivation world, even if I had to die a thousand deaths. But there are deaths that are heavier than a mountain, and there are deaths that are lighter than a goose feather. Dying in battle for the Chinese cultivation world is heavier than a mountain, and dying from being schemed against is lighter than a goose feather. Everyone, you've really disappointed me! Since that's the case, instead of leaving me with lingering fear, it's better to let me continue to do my utmost until my death. I think we wandering cultivators shouldn't be included in this matter! "
The various sects looked at each other in dismay. It turned out that he just wanted to go it alone. Duan Tianbo looked at Yuan Jiukui, who had just spent a lot of time talking but was now in a daze. He couldn't help but smile. Fight, my ass! So what if they won?
Quan Deming frowned and said, "Yue Qianchou, we're all part of the Cultivation Alliance. Before the war, all sects should obey the unified arrangement. It's not good that you guys aren't included!"
"It's true that all sects should obey the arrangement. But the key is that we're wandering cultivators. We don't belong to any sects, so we naturally don't need to follow the rules of the sects. "Yue Qianchou said with some emotion," More than 600 people! We've only just arrived! More than 200 people died in the blink of an eye. If we didn't have some ability to protect ourselves, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to stand and talk right now. Everyone, it's not that we don't want to follow the rules! But the lesson we just learned with the lives of 200 people is unforgettable! "
Two hundred dead people were a bunch of reasons, but what about a thousand dead people? Everyone cursed inwardly, their eyes inadvertently glancing at the Da Luo Sect, who didn't look happy.
"You may be wandering cultivators, but since you've already joined the Cultivation Alliance, you should at least do your part! The Cultivation Alliance's budget of spiritual stones — "
Before Quan Deming could finish, Yue Qianchou waved his hand and interrupted, "Elder Quan, don't worry. We wandering cultivators may be weak, but we're the most trustworthy. We'll never take money and not work. Even if we're not in the scope of the overall arrangement, we're still loyal. If you don't believe me, just wait and see. "
"What exactly do you mean? Just say it! "Quan Deming didn't want to spar with him anymore. No matter how much he beat around the bush, he wouldn't get anything practical.
"It's very simple." Yue Qianchou patted his chest and said, "We wandering cultivators fight independently and look for opportunities on our own. We don't need to be included in the Cultivation Alliance's overall arrangement for the time being. We'll talk about the overall arrangement after our wounded hearts have calmed down a little. What do you think? "
All the sects looked at each other, but no one expressed their opinion. They were all wondering how long it would take for their wounded hearts to calm down, especially when it came to 'looking for opportunities'. That was quite unreliable. What if they couldn't find an opportunity? Also, everyone had to pay for the expenses of more than 400 wandering cultivators. The thought of someone taking money without doing any work made no one happy. Although it wasn't a lot, it was still unfair!
"This …" Quan Deming pondered for a while, then looked at everyone and said, "Fu Xian Island isn't in a position to make decisions for everyone. I wonder if anyone has any different opinions?"
At that moment, Hundred Charm Demon Lady stood up and said with a smile, "I've spent some time with the wandering cultivators, and I'm quite confident in their ability to look for opportunities to fight. Perhaps it's more suitable than our overall arrangement. On behalf of the Pink Sect, I agree that the wandering cultivators fight independently."
Of course, you agree. Perhaps you've already slept on the same bed with Yue Qianchou. You're a family! All the sects looked at Hundred Charm Demon Lady ambiguously.
At that moment, the four major families naturally wouldn't pass on the responsibility. Bi Shan said in a deep voice, "The four major families agree."
Ten Thousand Demons had their own plans for Yue Qianchou, so they also agreed. Hexapath Demon Sect's Yuan Jiukui looked around and laughed, "It seems like my previous thoughts were a little shallow. Since Ten Thousand Demons agree, then Hexapath Demon Sect will also support it!"
"Fu Xian Island will listen to everyone's opinions. If anyone has any different opinions, feel free to voice them. Don't let it affect tomorrow's battle," said Quan Deming.
Most of the sects remained silent, clearly unwilling to do so. However, no one was willing to offend Yue Qianchou in front of them. This fellow's way of doing things was a little vengeful, and his strength was displayed in front of everyone. There was nothing that couldn't be resolved, so it was best not to provoke him. Everyone expressed their protest with silence.
"No objection means you agree! Thank you for your understanding and support. " Yue Qianchou nodded and turned to Quan Deming with cupped fists. "Elder Quan, everyone's opinion is clear. Please make the final announcement! This will give us the right to fight. "
Everyone's expression twitched. They had never seen someone as shameless as him. Quan Deming looked around in shock and asked in a loud voice, "Are there really no objections from the sects?" He looked around and no one said anything. He could only smile bitterly and say, "Since no one objects, then let's do it!"
He felt embarrassed to say anything, so he could only reply perfunctorily. Yue Qianchou didn't think much of it. After all, this was what he wanted. He turned around and cupped his fists to thank everyone. However, most of them turned around and left. Who would want this kind of thanks?
