Without Zhong De, Xi Xuan would immediately collapse.
"This … …" The sect leader's heart shook and his expression changed.
Chief Elder made the final decision.
He had to admit that the possibility of Ban Xia's plan being realized was high. If Tian Huan sent out top experts, with them as spies, the possibility of success was high.
But this hope that came from the sky was mercilessly shattered by that bloodthirsty madman, Zhong De.
So when Mu Shuang and Gongye Xiao Rong objected at the same time, their voices could not be ignored.
※ ※ ※
The opposing side thought that Tian Huan was far from needing a core member of the sect like Li Xian Er as a hostage. It would be good to eliminate Mo Cloud Sea, but it was unnecessary to pay such a great price. Also, they thought that Tian Huan's strength surpassed Mo Cloud Sea and they should not fear competing with Mo Cloud Sea. Just like now, when Tian Huan attacked, they had the upper hand. In terms of overall strength, Mo Cloud Sea was not on the same level as Tian Huan.
Li Xian Er's words were powerful.
"Abyss Fiend Prison!" Ban Xia said a name that had been forgotten long ago.
Suddenly, Li Xian Er stepped out and said calmly, "I am willing to go."
"We can hint to Tian Huan. They will naturally think of a solution. We only need to provide some assistance in secret. Without a leader, the sect leader will come out to clean up the mess, and the situation can be stabilized, "Ban Xia said gravely." Also, we can push the matter onto Mo Cloud Sea. "
Mi Nan's side thought that Xi Xuan would not dare to harm Li Xian Er. Li Xian Er was a hostage but she was not in danger. If they could complete their strategic goal of allying with Xi Xuan, Tian Huan would be in an invincible position. Otherwise, with Mo Cloud Sea competing with them in forging, and their battle power being weaker than Kun Lun, Tian Huan's future would be dangerous.
"I am willing to go. Actually, everyone knows that the danger this time is not high. Also, even if there is danger, I think we should agree to Xi Xuan. Because Mo Cloud Sea is more dangerous than Xi Xuan and filled with vitality. "
"I have seen Zuo Mo and interacted with them before. I know how powerful they are. An opponent like this should not be underestimated. This is a rare chance. If we grasp it, we can resolve a great problem once and for all. Also, do not forget Kun Lun. "
"He is crazy! He wants to take all of us down with him! "The Xi Xuan sect leader's furious and shrill voice echoed in the secret room. He almost couldn't believe that Zhong De had unexpectedly refused to ally with Tian Huan. He really couldn't think of any reason why Zhong De would not ally!
Not only that, but the people with real power in the sect, Mu Shuang, who was one of the top ten battle generals, and Gongye Xiao Rong, who was believed to have the strength of a top battle general, were also strongly opposed.
Ten whole years of peace!
Ban Xia was also troubled by this problem. He thought and then his eyes lit up. "We can get Tian Huan's Li Xian Er to come as a hostage! Li Xian Er was the granddaughter of the sect leader of Tian Huan, and the leader of the young disciples. She was equivalent to Kun Lun's Lin Qian. Tian Huan would not allow anything to happen to Li Xian Er. If Tian Huan is willing to let Li Xian Er come as a hostage, it means that they are sincere. "
The Sect Leader's eyes lit up.
These things could never be written on paper. If they were leaked, his position as the Sect Leader would be immediately overthrown! Zhong De was one of his most important bargaining chips. Zhong De's existence was what made Tian Huan and Kun Lun wary.
Originally, he had just been biding his time and had not avoided Zhong De in everything he did. Because he knew that Zhong De only had three years left to live. Xi Xuan would be his in the end. Even though the Tian Huan envoys had gone to visit Zhong De first, he still maintained his calm even though he was slightly discontent.
Ban Xia was confident and said with a smile, "Sect Leader, you have forgotten that we have a great advantage."
Gongye Xiao Rong's expression was panicked. He was about to speak when Li Xian Er gave him a calm gaze.
The two sides continued to argue. Because the matter involved his granddaughter, it was not convenient for the sect leader to express his stance. The Chief Elder who had the final say closed his eyes and did not speak.
"What place?" The sect leader stilled.
Did he not know that he only had two more years to live?
But it wasn't that no one agreed. For example, Mi Nan of the top ten battle generals.
"What is our advantage? Money! We are richer than Kun Lun! This is our greatest source of confidence. We should spend as much money as possible to buy over the factions. We need allies. If we want to fight against Kun Lun, we need allies. Xi Xuan is the most suitable ally for us. It is vast and has a large population. Once Zhong De is eliminated, there will be no one in power. They can only rely on us. We will provide them with shen equipment and aid. They will be able to equip enough battalions to help us fight against Kun Lun. An enormous amount of cannon fodder is what our Tian Huan needs. The existence of Mo Cloud Sea will continuously weaken us. We will have to compete with them for materials and the market. Tian Huan will become poor. Without money, we will not be able to recruit other factions. We will lose our greatest weapon, and we will be in a hopeless situation. "
This power could not be ignored.
"Actually, everyone knows that in terms of combat power, we are lacking compared to Kun Lun. If there is only us and Kun Lun left in the end, the ones that will fall will be us. "
What he worried about the most was not Zhong De's power, but what would happen to Xi Xuan after Zhong De died? He furiously searched for youths that were beginning to show their talent. He hoped to find Zhong De's successor. The fear of death gnawed at his mind day and night. He woke up in nightmares countless times.
He did not need to live in fear like now. Ten years! He had enough time to slowly find new geniuses. A sect as large as Xi Xuan, how could they not have geniuses? If he was given time, he would definitely be able to do it.
"Sect Leader, this is a one in a thousand chance!" Ban Xia, the sect leader's confidante, came forward and said, "Use Mo Cloud Sea's death to trade for ten years of peace for us, what is there to hesitate about? Shen equipment? If we form an alliance, we can buy shen equipment from Tian Huan. At that time, Tian Huan and we can work together to fight against Kun Lun. This is the power of the three strongest. "
A hesitant expression flashed across the sect leader's face. "But if Zhong De dies, and Kun Lun and Tian Huan change their minds and attack us, what do we do?"
Mi Nan had an important position in Tian Huan. He was fifty eight this year, and was at the prime of his life. The battalion he controlled was the strongest battalion in Tian Huan, the only battalion named [Tian Huan], [Destiny Ring]!
"You say?" the sect leader suddenly raised his head and said in a trembling voice.
The greatest faction in Tian Huan was naturally the sect leader of Tian Huan. The sect leader's personality was peaceful, but he was usually fair and everyone respected him. Adding on that he had the support of a transcendent existence like Chief Elder, no one could stop him.
Gongye Xiao Rong had great influence among the disciples. While his defeat at Gongsun Cha's hands had caused him to not be as dazzling as before, it was glorious to be able to escape death.
Chief Elder opened his eyes at this time and had an admiring expression. He slowly said, "You people can't even see as clearly as a little girl. After we return, the position of the next sect leader will be in your hands. "
The sect leader said dejectedly, "That madman does not agree, what can we do? If we disobey him, he will kill all of us! "
The sect leader's expression relaxed. This was a good idea but he thought of another problem. He shook his head and said, "With Li Xian Er's strength, who among us can match her? It is too dangerous to be a hostage of such a person! "
Li Xian Er's beautiful face was as calm as water. Her usual playfulness was nowhere to be seen. Only her voice echoed in the hall.
Why?
At that time, he would be the true master of Xi Xuan, the true sect leader of Xi Xuan!
Did he know that he did not have long to live and wanted to take everyone down with him? This madman! Yes, it had to be!
Mu Shuang was one of the ten great battle generals, but the faction behind him was not as strong as Mi Nan. He also only paid attention to the war and had no interest in the affairs of the sect.
The hall was completely silent. Everyone was stunned by Li Xian Er's words. Mi Nan, Mu Shuang, Gongye Xiao Rong and the others all had ugly expressions. Many of Li Xian Er's words were things that people usually discussed in secret, but no one had ever said them out in the open.
Mi Nan was powerful and had gathered a group of people around him. He could be considered the second strongest faction in Tian Huan.
The Mi Family almost monopolized all of Tian Huan's material business and had great wealth. Due to this, the Mi Family wanted to kill Mo Cloud Sea as soon as possible. In these years, Mo Cloud Sea's rise had severely damaged the Mi Family's business.
Receiving the secret message from the sect leader of Xi Xuan, the upper echelons of Tian Huan were troubled.
Mi Nan was ranked third among the ten great battle generals, just below Xue Dong and Zhong De. He was ranked above Mu Shuang who was ranked seventh. He was one of the most powerful people in Tian Huan. Also, the Mi Family was one of the traditional powers of Tian Huan. Almost every generation had a powerful person.
Xi Xuan's request was very simple. They needed a hostage, and they specifically wanted Li Xian Er. This was not something they could decide. Li Xian Er was the granddaughter of the sect leader, and the most talented genius of the present young disciples. Her future was limitless, and it was highly likely that she would succeed the next sect leader.
The sect leader of Xi Xuan was filled with terror. That madman could do anything. If he wanted everyone to die with him, then he would definitely do that!
The hall immediately quieted.
Yet, suddenly, Tian Huan showed him ten years of peace!
The sect leader of Xi Xuan could not understand, but in his eyes, Zhong De was a madman, a madman that could do anything.
Once Zhong De was not present, Xi Xuan would be a piece of fat meat that had lost its resistance. It was unknown if Tian Huan would abide by the previous agreement. If Tian Huan did not abide by the previous agreement, then Xi Xuan would be in a dangerous situation.
Ban Xia lowered his voice. "We cannot defeat him, but someone else can."
"Since Zhong De is the greatest problem, then we will get rid of this problem!" Ban Xia's tone was dark. He made a chopping motion with a vicious expression. "Tian Huan's intentions are clear. They have finally realized that Mo Cloud Sea is their greatest enemy. In order to defeat Mo Cloud Sea, they are willing to do anything. "
Ban Xia was his true confidante. He had grown up with him from childhood. Many of his schemes had been completed through Ban Xia's hands.
The two sides had fought fiercely.
