The Qin King, dressed in a golden dragon robe, strode into the hall under the protection of a group of guards.
"Hahahaha! For all of you to be able to attend my birthday banquet today, I am extremely grateful. Many thanks! "
"You're too kind, Qin King!"
"It's our duty!"
Tie Wuya's eyes lit up at the sight of the Qin King. He strode forward and cupped his hands. "Deputy Commander of the Light Law Bureau, Tie Wuya, greets the Qin King!"
"Hahaha! You must be tired, Lord Tie! "The Qin King laughed.
"Qin King, this lowly one …"
"Hahaha! Lord Tie, you're a guest from afar. You must drink more today. Please, take a seat! "
The Qin King greeted Tie Wuya politely. Without stopping, he walked past Tie Wuya and headed for the throne at the top of the hall.
"This …"
Tie Wuya was stunned. He wanted to ask the Qin King for help, but he was rebuffed. The Qin King clearly didn't want to talk to him.
"My Lord, what should we do?" A guard asked in a low voice.
Tie Wuya gritted his teeth for a moment. Then, he sighed helplessly and said in a low voice, "Looks like this Heavenly Cauldron City can't be compared to the Imperial Capital. It is indeed a lawless place. However, since we are paid by the Emperor, we should also be loyal to him! No matter how difficult it may be, I must bring the culprit to justice and show the might of the heavens! "
Qi Feibao also said viciously, "Yes, yes! Lord Tie, you must not let them go. When I was in trouble, Lin Xuan was also nearby. He might be the culprit. That guy is too lawless … "
Tie Wuya looked coldly at Qi Feibao and said, "Don't worry, I will give the Duke an explanation. Let's go!"
He wasn't in the mood to attend the Qin King's birthday banquet. He left with his men and the corpse.
Although the Qin King saw the corpse, he couldn't be bothered to ask about it.
The Heavenly Cauldron City was his fief. He only knew that the foundation of his ancestors could not fall into the hands of the non-humankind. Lin Xuan and the people from the Demon Abyss could help him defend the city against the non-humankind, but what could the Light Law Guards do for him?
Moreover, the Guanglu Guards were actually arresting people at his birthday banquet. They clearly didn't put him, the Duke of Qin, in their eyes. Why should he meddle in other people's business?
Then, the birthday banquet officially began. The King of Qin, the upper echelons of the military, and the leaders of the major forces repeatedly raised their glasses. The atmosphere was lively, and the main hall was filled with singing and laughter.
Lin Xuan drank while coldly observing the people who came to attend the banquet. A few people who had recently been in the limelight attracted his attention.
The princess of King Qin's Mansion, Yu Qingshi, was always by King Qin's side. She was a young woman with a cold face and a demonic temperament. At the same time, she was also the Saintess of Demon Refining Lake. She was a character that could not be ignored.
The Commander of the Heavenly Cauldron Army, Yang Tianding, was a young general with a sinister temperament. He was also the second in command in the Heavenly Cauldron Army. The first in command was his father, Yang Wanfeng.
The Commander of the Jinhua Army, Li Yanfeng, was a young expert in the way of the sword. He was like an unsheathed sword. His gaze was so sharp that no one could look directly at him.
The Sword Maste's Lian Shisan, on the other hand, was an average-looking young man with a dark face. He sat quietly in a corner and didn't eat. He only drank the wine that he brought himself.
Other than that, Di Ying, Gu Xinghun, Chu Tianshuo, and Yin Qi were all here. Lin Xuan even saw Muyun Hai and Wu Yishan.
However, today was obviously not a good time to make a move. Lin Xuan didn't make a move.
He was only secretly thinking about how to find an opportunity to wipe out the Keelung Sect in one fell swoop.
Halfway through the wine, Shui Qianxun came over and raised her cup to Lin Xuan. She smiled sweetly and said, "Lin Xuan, this time, King Qin intends to lead the formation of the Martial Arts World Alliance. What do you think?"
Lin Xuan drank the wine in his cup and muttered, "The Dragons clan is too strong. With the Martial Arts World in its current state of disunity, I'm afraid it will be difficult to resist them.
If we can unite the martial artists of the Heavenly Cauldron City, it will be a good thing for all of us.
However, when the alliance is formed, there will definitely be a selection of leaders. When the time comes, the Devil Abyss will have to fight for the right to speak. We don't want to become cannon fodder. "
"Lin Xuan, the few of us have already thought about it. If you intend to fight for the position of Alliance Leader, we will definitely support you!" Shui Qianxun said.
"We'll talk about it when the time comes."
Lin Xuan smiled noncommittally.
Currently, the Magic Lotus Sect's overall strength was the weakest among the six paths of the Devil Abyss. However, because of Lin Xuan's existence, a large number of Magic Lotus Sect experts had gathered in Heavenly Cauldron City. This made the Magic Lotus Sect led by Lin Xuan the strongest.
This was especially true in the past few days. Ever since Lin Xuan announced the rules for selecting the Saint and Sect Leader, a large number of Magic Lotus Sect elites had rushed to Heavenly Cauldron City every day. This caused Lin Xuan's influence to expand rapidly.
In addition, as the Sect Leader, Lin Xuan's status was higher than Shui Qianxun and the others. It was reasonable for them to elect Lin Xuan as the leader.
However, Lin Xuan also knew that the other sects weren't weak either. If they wanted to fight for the position of Alliance Leader, it wouldn't be an easy task.
When the wine was almost finished, King Qin stood up from his throne and said with a loud voice, "Everyone, we are now in the middle of a large-scale invasion by the non-humankind. Countless human beings are dying in the hands of the non-humankind with every passing second. It is not proper for me to hold a birthday banquet at this moment.
However, today, I sincerely invited everyone here for a birthday banquet. There's another important matter that I need to discuss with everyone.
The foreign tribes are very powerful now. Half of the cities in the Summer State, Que State, and Wu State have fallen. The humans are retreating in defeat and have suffered heavy casualties.
This isn't because the humans aren't strong enough. It's because we aren't united enough.
Now, the three Flood Dragon Clans are approaching Heavenly Cauldron City and may launch an all-out attack at any time. Although the Heavenly Cauldron Army is brave, it's difficult for them to hold the fort alone. I'm sure everyone here doesn't want to see Heavenly Cauldron City fall.
Therefore, I suggest that the martial artists in Heavenly Cauldron City form an alliance to fight with the Heavenly Cauldron Army!
Of course, the war is a righteous act. Whether you want to participate or not is up to you. I won't force you!
Now, let's invite the leaders of the various forces to the Conference Hall for a small gathering to discuss the details. "
After King Qin finished speaking, he led his subordinates out of the hall.
Instantly, the hall was filled with discussions.
"King Qin actually wants to form an alliance of the martial arts world. This hasn't happened for hundreds of years."
"Yes! However, the foreign tribes are coming aggressively. If we're still scattered, I'm afraid we won't be able to defend Heavenly Cauldron City. "
"My foundation is in Heavenly Cauldron City. I must have a place in the new alliance."
"…"
More than half of the people who came to attend King Qin's birthday banquet were locals. Their foundations and forces were mostly in Heavenly Cauldron City or even the Summer State. No one wanted their home to be conquered by the foreign tribes. Therefore, they were more enthusiastic about forming an alliance.
As for some of the foreign forces, they didn't have enough manpower. If they wanted to protect themselves from the attack of the foreign tribes and fight for the Noble List and the inheritance of the Human Emperor, joining the alliance was a good choice.
Therefore, most people were enthusiastic about the alliance that was about to be formed.
Of course, there were exceptions.
Mu Yunhai and Wu Yishan looked at each other and saw the coldness in each other's eyes.
Wu Yishan sneered in a low voice. "Thanks to Lin Xuan, the Keelung Sect no longer has a place in Heavenly Cauldron City. It seems that the survival of Heavenly Cauldron City has nothing to do with us."
