For so many years, Su Mo had gone through a lot of hardships and hardships. He had been through a lot of ups and downs.
What kind of situation had he not seen before?
With his experience and shrewdness, he was no longer the young boy he used to be. Therefore, he saw through Di Long's schemes with a single glance.
Clumsy!
In Su Mo's eyes, Di Long's method was very clumsy and full of loopholes.
First of all, Ke Han had just participated in the Cleansing Ceremony and taken Ji Hailan as his slave. Why did he leave the Soul Pavilion so quickly?
Secondly, even if Ke Han had agreed to give up Ji Hailan, he could have just stated his conditions. Why did he have to go to the Eighth City to negotiate?
Finally, Di Long had always wanted to save Di Hong. Previously, in the Soul Pavilion, he had already forcefully made a move. If not for Pavilion Venerable Wu Yi stopping him, a battle would have been inevitable.
Now, Di Long had asked him to leave the Soul Pavilion and go to the Eighth City. Wasn't this a good opportunity for the enemy to attack?
Su Mo shook his head helplessly. He was not sure if Ke Han was involved in this matter, but he was sure that Di Long had a backup plan in the Eighth City.
However, since Di Long wanted to play, he would accompany him to the end.
With that, Su Mo stood up and walked towards the nearby palace.
Not long after, he summoned more than twenty Cabinet Masters.
These twenty or so Pavilion Masters were the ones who had tried to curry favor with him and wanted to befriend him.
"Brother Bai, what did you call us here for?"
A tall, stocky, and gray-robed official asked in confusion. They had just separated an hour ago.
This pavilion master's name was Ji Zhe, and his cultivation level was at the low extreme of the Dao Realm.
Most of them were in the Creation Realm. There were only three in the Dao Realm, and Ji Zhe was the strongest of them all.
Although he was of Dao Realm Cultivation, Ji Zhe was respectful towards Su Mo.
This was because he knew that a disciple of the Heavenly Soul Pavilion, and one with heaven-defying talent at that, would definitely advance to the Heaven Splitting Realm in a few years.
Making friends and establishing a good relationship in advance was far more practical than making friends later.
"Everyone, to tell you the truth, Di Long has invited me to the Eighth City. I am worried that he is up to no good and hence I have asked all of you to accompany me!" Su Mo went straight to the point.
"How dare Di Long!" Ji Zhe's face darkened.
"Di Long wants to plot against Brother Bai Yan?"
"He's too arrogant, he dares to provoke our Yan Meng!"
"Alright, we will accompany Brother Bai Yan!"
The others also spoke up one after another, all of them showing their indignation. Now, they were all in the same camp.
Previously, Su Mo had invited these people to the palace for a long chat.
Others wanted to rely on him, and he also expressed his intention to rope them in.
Therefore, everyone hit it off and decided to form an alliance.
There were even people who gave their alliance a very lame name — Yan Alliance.
As the name suggested, it was the Cabinet Alliance led by Bai Yan.
"Mm, very good!"
Su Mo nodded and said, "I'll go first. You guys follow me secretly. Once Di Long makes a move, you guys will attack together!"
Everyone nodded. Then, Ji Zhe said, "Brother Baiyan, Di Long's cultivation level is at the medium extreme of the Dao Realm. Although we have the advantage in numbers, I'm afraid we're no match for him!"
When everyone heard this, they all agreed with Ji Zhe's opinion. Indeed, even if they joined forces, they would not be able to defeat Di Long.
After all, only three of them were at the low extreme of the Dao Realm. The others were all at the Creation Tier.
The difference between the Creation Tier and the medium extreme of the Dao Realm was too big.
"Don't worry. I will not leave the Eighth City. In the Eighth City, Di Long will not dare to attack recklessly. Moreover, he will not have the chance to continue fighting!" Su Mo said with a smile.
When everyone heard this, they thought for a while and understood.
Yes, the Eighth City was the main city of the Eighth Branch of the Sun Slayer Tribe and it had a large population.
In the city, Di Long would definitely be afraid and he would not dare to attack recklessly. Otherwise, the damage would be too great and many people would die.
Moreover, once Di Long fought with them, there would be a huge commotion. The top powers of the Soul Tribe in the Eighth City would definitely intervene.
As such, as long as they could block one or two blows from Di Long, it would be enough.
"Everyone, don't worry. If you help me, I, Bai Yan, will remember your kindness!" Su Mo said in a deep voice.
"Brother Bai Yan, you are too serious. We are all part of the Yan Alliance and we should advance and retreat together."
"Yes, we will follow Brother Bai Yan!"
"There are so many of us. No matter how powerful Di Long is, I will not succeed!"
Everyone expressed their opinions. This was a rare opportunity for them to pledge their loyalty. If they helped Bai Yan this time, they would be on the same side as Bai Yan in the future.
Moreover, they guessed that this might be Bai Yan's test to see their loyalty. Otherwise, he could have informed Pavilion Master Wu Yi about this matter.
"Alright, all of you are straightforward people. Bai Yan thanks you in advance!"
Su Mo cupped his fists to the crowd and continued, "I will make a move first. Follow me later."
"Yes!" The crowd replied.
With that, Su Mo left the Eighth Soul Pavilion and headed to the Eighth City.
The Eighth City was very close to the Eighth Soul Pavilion. Su Mo walked slowly, a few dozen feet in a step. In a short while, he arrived at the gate of the Eighth City.
When he arrived, Di Long was already waiting at the gate.
"Bai Yan, why are you so late? Ke Han has been waiting for you!" Seeing Su Mo, Di Long hurried forward and asked anxiously.
"There is no hurry. Let's go and see him now!" Su Mo said with a smile.
"Let's go!"
Di Long called out to Su Mo and led him into the Eighth City.
The Eighth City was very prosperous and there were millions of Soul Tribesmen living in it.
After passing through the streets, the two of them came to the northern region of the Eighth City. The surroundings gradually became more remote.
"Where is Ke Han?" Su Mo asked without changing his expression. However, he sneered in his heart.
"In a yard not far away!" Di Long pointed to the front.
There was indeed a yard in front of them. It was not big and it was very quiet.
This yard belonged to the Di Family and it had been abandoned for a long time.
"Alright, let's go!" Su Mo nodded and walked toward the yard.
In a short while, Di Long and Su Mo arrived at the gate of the yard.
Di Long opened the gate of the yard.
However, Su Mo stopped in his tracks and had no intention of walking in.
"Bai Yan, why did you stop?" Di Long turned around and asked curiously.
"There seems to be an array here?" Su Mo pretended to be puzzled and asked.
In actual fact, he could tell at a glance that there was an array set up in the yard.
Once he stepped into the gate, he would fall into the array.
"Isn't it normal to have an array? Which mansion in the Eighth City doesn't have an array? Our Soul Pavilion also has a large number of arrays that can block out Spiritual Senses and Spiritual Thoughts. Otherwise, no one would be able to keep secrets! "
Di Long said with a fake smile. However, he was rather anxious and worried that Su Mo had already found out something was wrong.
Go in!
Come in!
Just one more step and it will be fine!
Di Long shouted in his heart. There were many arrays set up in this yard. Not only were there arrays that could block out Spiritual Senses and power, there were also trapping arrays and killing arrays.
As long as Bai Yan walked into the yard, he would not be able to call for help.
"That makes sense!" Su Mo nodded as if he believed Di Long's words.
Having said that, Su Mo lifted his foot and was about to walk into the yard!
Di Long was elated when he saw this!
Done!
