Right now, the Hou Clan and three other families were forming an alliance with the Xiong Yun Gang, sealing the pact with blood oaths. Additionally, with so many external forces present, was this not an excellent opportunity for mischief?
Mo Qingning's eyes swiftly turned as she decided on a course of action. Pulling along her junior Qing Yuan, she quickly headed toward the Xiong Yun Gang's main stronghold, unable to suppress the smile that crept across her lips, evidently harboring some malicious scheme.
......
Xiong Yun Gang Main Stronghold
The square in front of the main hall was packed inside and out with a dense crowd of three to four thousand people. A three zhang high platform stood proudly in the center, vacant except for four small desks, each bearing a small bowl with a cup of clear wine.
Directly to the south of the platform, apart from the onlookers crowded around, stood four distinct groups, clearly positioned closer than the rest. Each group comprised around a hundred individuals, the weakest among them at the Gang Qi Realm. Leaving aside their identities, the mere presence of these four hundred or so individuals was enough to make others keep their distance.
"Leader Duan, it's almost noon. It's time to announce the start of the ceremony!"
Duan Hong, who was deep in thought to the right, furrowed his brows as he heard Shen Guyun's words from the left. His gaze towards the platform didn't prompt him to step up right away. Instead, the suspicion in his eyes grew even more intense.
Duan Hong harbored one question in his mind.
How could the three families possibly agree to make him the Alliance Hierarch?
Indeed, Pingtian Gate's strength was notable. Compared to the other three families, which had endured the battle at Longxiang Ferry, Pingtian Gate had not been involved in significant conflicts during this period and had likely preserved most of its power. This was the foundation of his confidence to propose himself as the Alliance Hierarch.
But the problem was that all three families had agreed, and that left him conflicted.
Shen Gufan and Wan Renjue were dead. Even if the power of the Shen Clan and Xiong Yun Gang were damaged, they were far from fearing Pingtian Gate. As for the recently mythical stories about the Hou Clan, they should be even less inclined. Hou Yuxiao was rumored to have single-handedly fought against Wufa, and even if it wasn't to that extent, his strength was likely not below Duan Hong's. At this moment, the Hou Clan was indeed at its peak.
Duan Hong, of course, wanted to be the leader of the Hexi Alliance.
However, everything was going too smoothly.
So smoothly that he sensed something was definitely amiss.
"Father, there's no use in doubting now that things have come to this point. Our more than three hundred thousand sect members have already relocated to Jiujun and Yuzhao counties, and Leiyin Temple has also entered Jianye Prefecture. This Hexi Alliance is bound to be established. According to what I've learned these past days, the other three families are not as united as they seem. Once you become the Alliance Hierarch and then apply your tactics to divide the three families, Pingtian Gate will truly control the alliance, and with that... the power will be immense..."

With a slight gesture of his hand, Duan Hong silenced his son Duan Yun. After mulling things over for a moment, he lifted his head and stamped his foot lightly. With a leap, he stood on the platform and turned to gaze down at the crowd, his expression turning stern:
"Everyone gathered here today knows the purpose of this assembly. I am grateful to Master Wan and the heads of the Shen and Hou families for thinking highly of Duan, entrusting me to preside over this alliance ceremony. Should there be any shortcomings, I hope for everyone's understanding!"
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Duan Hong immediately got to the point:
"Without the protection of the Holy Church, our land of Hexi may face greater misfortune in the future. To prevent our people from becoming displaced and suffering, our four families have come together to form this alliance today. We've invited you all as witnesses. From now on, we will advance and retreat together. We don't aim for expansion but seek stability for Hexi. We ask our neighbors to be at ease!"
"After the battle of Longxiang Ferry, the three families joined forces to defeat Leiyin Temple, and now they have brought Pingtian Gate into the fold, further strengthening their power. Such wild ambition is clear for all to see, yet they still claim they have no desire for expansion, heh, laughable..."
Discordant voices arose immediately!
Hou Yuxiao, who had been sitting quietly in front of the Hou Clan, slightly turned his head and looked toward the person speaking in the crowd, a glint of cold light flashing through his eyes.
