Peerless Battle Spirit-Chapter 2308: Reshuffle, Part Two
Chapter 2308: Reshuffle, Part Two
The following day, the Li Clan's headquarters in the First Immortal Realm...
Unlike usual, the place was decorated with lights. Many spectacular rare phenomena were occurring in the sky. The lands of treasures which the disciples were not allowed to visit at normal times were now open.
The disciples and elders of the Wang Clan, Wu Clan, and other factions arrived from all directions. They were having conversations with one another, resulting in a lively sight.
It had been a while since the Li Clan could enjoy such peace.
In contrast, the atmosphere inside the Li Clan's meeting hall was extremely tense.
The old man with black hair and white brows which the Heaven-Reaching Dao Tree had transfigured into was seated at the leading spot.
On his left were the new Patriarch of the Li Clan, Li Posheng, and the new Patriarch of the Wu Clan. On his right were the new Patriarch of the Wang Clan, Heaven Highness Huangyun, nd Heaven Highness Duanmu.
Below them were Rulers of Dao of various factions, and also the Patriarchs, leaders, and exceptional geniuses like Li Yangfan from their respective factions.
These people were the core members of the new alliance, the Li Wang Alliance.
There were not many people. Only thirty of them were participating in the meeting. The Masters of Dao were not qualified for it.
"It's decided then. Cultivator Huangyun and I will set up the dojos for ten days. In addition to it, we will train the Rulers of Dao for three months," the Heaven-Reaching Dao Tree declared.
"Sure!"
Heaven Highness Huangyun, Heaven Highness Duanmu, and Li Posheng nodded.
The new Patriarch of the Wu Clan wore an awkward expression. Even though his status was comparable to the other four, he did not have a say in major decisions. He could only give his suggestions.
"Now, let's discuss how we should treat Qin Nan. I will say it bluntly. Considering our current circumstances, I believe not only we should not treat Qin Nan as our enemy, we should lend him a hand secretly when necessary too," Heaven-Reaching Dao Tree said.
"How so?"
Heaven Highness Duanmu refuted it, "Ye Zhaoxian's strength is unmatchable. No one among the Heaven Highnesses can possibly challenge him. Besides, Cang will surely achieve the Heaven Highness Realm too when the God's Breath Battlefield is accessible again after two years."
"They will obviously be in charge in the future. All we have to do is fawn upon them. I also think we can join hands with Cang and Ye Zhaoxian to take down Qin Nan together."
"The Ownerless Heaven Pattern, Undying Cycle Mountain, and the successions left by Huangfu Jue, we just need to claim anyone of them to increase the overall strength of our alliance!"
Many Rulers of Dao were convinced by the words.
It was true that if they did join hands with Cang and Ye Zhaoxian, Qin Nan would have no chance of defending himself.
Qin Nan's faction only had a single Heaven Highness. Even if the Four Demon Ruler was also Qin Nan's man, he only had two Heaven Highnesses by his side.
Heaven Highness Duanmu observed everyone's reaction and said indifferently, "Senior Duanmu, you are currently the leader of our alliance. You must not be affected by personal feelings whenever you make a decision. I heard your disciple is pretty close with Qin Nan..."
He had long held a grudge against the Heaven-Reaching Dao Tree when it became the leader of the alliance.
The Heaven-Reaching Dao Tree looked at Heaven Highness Duanmu in silence. Li Yangfan too noticed others' gaze at her, but she remained expressionless.
Heaven Highness Duanmu was interrupted by a cold voice before he could finish, "Duanmu, that's enough! Senior Heaven-Reaching is saying it for the alliance's sake."
The person who spoke was Heaven Highness Huangyun.
Heaven Highness Duanmu was not convinced. He said, "Senior Sister, how is helping Qin Nan going to help us?"
Heaven Highness Huangyun let out a sigh and said, "Let me ask you. Do you think our alliance will stand a chance against Cang and Ye Zhaoxian in the future? Do you think once Cang and Ye Zhaoxian reclaim their strength and become Supreme Highnesses, they will let us achieve the Supreme Highness Realm too?"
Heaven Highness Duanmu was stunned, "Senior Sister, are you saying..."
Heaven Highness Huangyun nodded slightly. He looked at the crowd and said, "Fellow cultivators, we have no idea how strong a Supreme Highness is. Only Senior Heaven-Reaching knows it. However, there's one thing we know for sure. The whole situation in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm will change again if Cang and Ye Zhaoxian achieve the Supreme Highness Realm."
Many people nodded.
The situation had changed dramatically after many had achieved the Heaven Highness Realm, let alone the Supreme Highness Realm.
"That being said, let's not worry too much. According to Senior Heaven-Reaching and my speculation, once either Cang or Ye Zhaoxian achieves the Supreme Highness Realm, their alliance would crumble as they turn against one another."
"It's definitely favorable to us."
"Besides, it's impossible for our alliance to be the strongest in the Primary Upper Realm. Our goal is to remain firm and extend our glory in this new era."
"Therefore, it is necessary for us to help Qin Nan secretly. He's the only one that can go against Cang and Ye Zhaoxian."
"If Qin Nan did rise, he would be able to maintain the balance between him, Cang, and Ye Zhaoxian. He would also owe us a favor. If Qin Nan failed to rise, it's not too late for us to change our mind either."
The Rulers of Dao fell into deep thoughts after hearing the words.
"That being said, if anyone insists to become a slave to Cang and Ye Zhaoxian, feel free to say it now."
Ruler Huangyun's eyes flickered coldly.
It was the reason why she had formed an alliance with the Li Clan.
She did not want to give away the Wang Clan's achievements over thousands of years so easily.
She would only surrender when she did not have a choice. For example, when either Cang or Ye Zhaoxian had conquered the Primary Upper Realm.
It was not the time yet!
"Senior Heaven-Reaching, I apologize for my lack of understanding of the greater picture," Heaven Highness Duanmu brought his fists together and said with a wry smile.
"It's not your fault. You just aren't familiar with Cang and Ye Zhaoxian."
The Heaven-Reaching Dao Tree said, "I shall use this opportunity to share the ancient battle with you all. I do know a little about Cang and Ye Zhaoxian's personality."
The meeting continued.
The authorities were planning their next steps.
