After leaving Tianyang Sect, the old city lord of Zishan City felt a little regretful.
His regret was not because he rejected the price offered by the Supreme Elder of Tianyang Sect. No matter how calm he was, he would still think the price was outrageous.
With these spiritual stones, you can find someone to kill these monks.
What he regretted was that he was a little too aggressive. The Tianyang Sect claimed that it was the number one Nascent Soul force in the Fanyang Kingdom. Even if they could not reach an agreement with them, they would never be allowed to reach an agreement with the Five Sacred Mountains Palace.
If this is really negotiated, it will make their current situation in Zishan City even worse.
If his actions contributed to the formation of this incident, he would definitely regret it to death.
After returning to Zishan City.
He quickly summoned the commander.
When the commander saw the old city lord like this, he knew that he would not get a good result. This was exactly what he thought. With the character of the old city lord, it would be a problem if the negotiation could be successful at this time.
"The Tianyang Sect is simply outrageous. One pill formation in the later stage actually requires at least two hundred high-grade spiritual stones, and two of them cost two hundred and fifty yuan each..."
The old city lord couldn't help but speak, while the commander stood aside and listened quietly.
In his personal opinion, the price offered by Tianyang Sect is a bit high, but it is definitely not as outrageous as what the old city lord said. If he were the supreme elder of Tianyang Sect, the price offered would be lower at best. .
Speaking of the latter, the old city lord also expressed his worries.
“…What do you think about this?”
“There is no possibility of cooperation between Tianyang Sect and Wuyue Palace.”
"How to say it."
"City Lord, think about it, Wuyue Palace now has the advantage, and it has also called the Danjie from the Three Small Kingdoms area. There is no reason to go to Tianyang Sect, and Tianyang Sect is our fan. The number one Nascent Soul force in the Yang Kingdom is even less likely to take the initiative to put down its face.”
The Grand Commander said something that the old city master liked to hear. He said this, but he also added in his heart, Tianyang Sect is looking for it. The Five Sacred Mountains Palace may need some external force as long as it is difficult for them to suppress the Xingxiu Gate.
In the battle between the two Nascent Soul forces, Wuyue Palace, which has the upper hand, is the best choice for this external force.
It is impossible for this external force to choose the current Zishan City, just like it is impossible for Zishan City to go to Xingxiu Gate if they need support.
They really went to Xingxiu Sect, which may be the driving force to promote the cooperation between Wuyue Palace and Tianyang Sect.
“It seems that I worry too much.”
“City Lord, it’s a good thing to worry, so that you can be more prepared.”
“Well, you That's right." The old city lord nodded with satisfaction.
After chatting for a long time, the old city lord felt much better.
This was the reason why he felt at ease leaving the big and small affairs of Zishan City to the commander-in-chief. He felt that the commander-in-chief was very similar to him and could think of many things together, which won his heart.
"Next, you arrange for people to attach themselves to the alchemy force. If there is only one alchemy monk, there is no need to go."
"Yes, the city lord." The commander-in-chief knew very well that the current master of the old city What to do, "What is the bottom line for our bid?"
"If it is the late stage of pill formation, it will be up to thirty high-grade spiritual stones."
"Understood." The commander could only nod. head.
For the old city lord, thirty high-grade spiritual stones were already quite good. Before going to Tianyang Sect, fifteen high-grade spiritual stones would have been a lot.
If it were the same situation as before, it would really be possible for thirty high-grade spiritual stones to summon a late-stage pill-forming monk.
Now...the commander-in-chief doesn't have much confidence in his heart.
Things were quickly arranged by him.
Five days later, he received a message saying that some affiliated alchemy forces still wanted to think about it, and the affiliated alchemy forces that gave replies all refused for various reasons.
Finding a suitable reason for refusal already shows great respect for their sect in Zishan City.
There has been no reply yet. The commander-in-chief feels that they will not agree in the end. Now they should be spending their energy to find out the current situation.
As the commander-in-chief thought, the affiliated alchemy forces that did not respond were all under investigation.
A certain affiliated alchemy force in Zishan City.
“How’s the investigation going?”
"The results have been obtained. Many alchemy monks have appeared in Wuyue Palace recently."
"The alchemy forces affiliated with Wuyue Palace have supported Wuyue Palace?"
"No, according to the latest news According to the news, they haven’t moved. The extra pill-forming monks seem to be from the Three Small Kingdoms area, from Zishan City..."
"Of course you are looking for a reason to refuse, don’t just blame me on the price. I need to stay in retreat for a long time recently."
"Yes."
Situations similar to this occurred among many Danjie forces affiliated with Zishan City.
Unlike the Danjie forces in the Three Small Kingdoms region, they are sandwiched between the two Nascent Soul forces. As for who will be attached to them in the end, naturally whoever wins in the end will be attached to them.
Especially the fight between two major forces in the same area. Small forces like them will not be involved until the critical moment.
However, it was beyond their expectations that the Danjie forces in the three small countries could participate.
If they were in the Three Small Kingdoms area, faced with such a situation, they would not easily participate, even if they support the Wuyue Palace, which has an advantage. You must know that this is a dispute between the two Nascent Soul forces. In the struggle, no one knows the outcome until the last moment.
Baijing County, Lei family.
As one of the alchemy cultivating families in Baijing County, the Lei family is also an affiliated alchemy force in Zishan City. Their final choice is somewhat different from other alchemy-forming forces in Zishan City.
Because Zishan City wanted their support, they directly summoned the senior monks of the family to hold an emergency meeting.
"...This is all the news that can be obtained."
"It is all supported by the Danjie forces in the three small countries."
"Wait a minute, are any of these pills from the royal family of the Qing Kingdom?" The head of the Lei family needed more specific information.
"There is the Qing Kingdom royal family."
"Clan leader, what you think is...the Qing Kingdom royal family has all formed pills, and it is possible to dispatch their Nascent Soul clan leader."
< br>"Well, I think it is possible, and there are some possibilities. The Nascent Soul monk from the Qing Kingdom royal family is now in Fanyang Kingdom."
"I think this possibility is too small."
"But if this is really the case, Zishan City will be very dangerous." The head of the Lei family quickly made up his mind, "At this time, I think we cannot hesitate, but must be decisive! If we miss the opportunity, we want to have it again later. It's difficult." When the senior officials heard this, their eyes were fixed on the clan leader. The clan leader's obvious intention was that the Lei family would now take sides.
"Isn't it too early now?"
Some family leaders have not yet decided. The most stable way should be for Wuyue Palace to attack Zishan City.
“It’s getting late. This is also an opportunity for us. After seizing this opportunity, I think the family will have better development space in the future.”
"I agree with the patriarch."
"Based on the information we have now, the risk is relatively small and the benefits are relatively high. It is worth a try."
Some of the senior officials who have expressed their stance have already agreed.
There is an advantage to joining the team now. After Wuyue Palace really destroys Zishan City, their Lei family will be compared with other alchemy forces affiliated with Zishan City, whether it is the attitude of Wuyue Palace towards them or the subsequent attachments. The resources that Wuyue Palace needs to donate every year are definitely much better.
“If we perform well, our Lei family’s position among the forces affiliated with Wuyue Palace will definitely be superior to most of the alchemy forces currently affiliated with Wuyue Palace.”
You should know that there are no Dan Jie monks from Wuyue Palace’s alchemy forces to participate in this contest between the two Nascent Soul forces.
As for whether the foundation-building monks are involved, it is not easy to check. Compared with the monks at the pill-forming level, the impact of the foundation-building monks on the battle situation is almost negligible, so the support can be very covert.
The Advantages of Wuyue Palace For the alchemy forces affiliated with Wuyue Palace, there is no need to participate in it compared to the alchemy forces affiliated with Zishan City. If they succeed in occupying the team and sect, there will definitely be benefits. But the benefits gained cannot change the current situation of their family, giving them the possibility to move forward to a higher level.
If it fails, it will really be over.
In their view, the benefits and risks are obviously not equal.
After the Lei family made the right bet, it was completely different from the Danjie forces currently affiliated with Zishan City.
After a long discussion, they finally listened to the clan leader and directly occupied the Wuyue Palace. However, it was not possible to directly join the team now. They needed to dispatch the alchemy monks to join the battlefield, which would have to be later.
Taking a side is definitely not just words, everyone will say it, you must take actual actions.
Half a month later.
Lei Yuanji, the family leader at the peak of Lei family foundation building, has secretly come to Wuyue Palace.
When he came to Wuyue Palace, he naturally wanted to meet the Supreme Elder of Wuyue Palace.
After expressing his intention to come, the monks of Wuyue Palace did not give him any trouble, and he soon met the Supreme Elder Yu Qingyun.
"I have admired my senior for a long time, and today I met him."
Yu Qingyun did not take it seriously to Lei Yuanji's polite words, but asked directly: "Can you represent the Lei family?"
"Yes, senior, I am here on behalf of the Lei family. However, the elders in the family who are in the Dan-formation stage have some inconvenience, so I will do it for them."
This Lei Yuanji must explain. Now that he has come to Wuyue Palace on behalf of the Lei family, it must mean that the Lei family has abandoned the dark side and sided with Wuyue Palace. There is no need to be sneaky. It is best for the clan leader in the Dan-formation stage to come, which is more effective. show their attitude.
"Okay, on behalf of the Lei family, please tell me something real. When are you going to take action on the Lei family's pill formation?" Yu Qingyun asked what he wanted to know most.
This is also the most important.
The Baijing Lei family is now siding with their Five Sacred Mountains Palace. There are three pill-forming monks in their family. No matter how hard it is, they have to send out a pill-forming monk to help their Five Sacred Mountains Palace deal with Zishan City, and they do it for free. kind.
This can show the sincerity of their Lei family.
"When Guizong attacks Baijing County, our Lei family will send out two Jie Dan to support them." Lei Yuanji said that the Lei family had already discussed this.
It is very important for the Lei family that the Wuyue Palace reaches Baijing County.
At this time, the Lei family can take action to minimize their own danger.
Many of the places that used to be the sphere of influence of Zishan City are now conquered by Wuyue Palace, and the Danjie forces that were previously affiliated with Zishan City are now in a shrinking state and do not take any sides with the two sides. Naturally, Wuyue Palace did not make things difficult for them. For Wuyue Palace, as long as they did not help Zishan City a little bit, it was already good. Of course, it would be best if they could directly stand with them, but such a situation has never happened so far. .
"Before this, our Lei family will secretly give your sect all the help we can."
"Forget it, so that you don't expose yourselves before this." Since the other party is willing to give out two pills, Yu Qingyun feels that some things can be avoided. The help that the Lei family can do is in secret, and it is not of great use to them. .
The most important thing is that this can also prevent them from obtaining too much information from Wuyue Palace.
In Yu Qingyun’s mind, it cannot be completely ruled out that the Lei family’s idea of siding with their Five Sacred Mountains Palace is Zishan City, but this is unlikely.
Seeing that the Lei family sent the Foundation Establishment Peak, they must have come to the Five Sacred Mountains Palace secretly, so the possibility is even smaller.
“Listen to your seniors.”
Lei Yuanji was overjoyed when he heard this, and at the same time he felt very comfortable. Secretly helping Wuyue Palace might expose them. Before Wuyue Palace attacked Baijing County, they did not want to be exposed and were already siding with Wuyue Palace.
The two sides talked very quickly.
Lei Yuanji left without wasting much time.
Yu Qingyun asked the foundation-building disciples to see him off.
"Baijing County...it seems it won't take long." Yu Qingyun couldn't help but say.
He had received information from Zishan City before, indicating that Zishan City had been in contact with many of their affiliated pill-forming forces some time ago, so he knew without much guessing that Zishan City definitely hoped that their affiliated forces could produce a few knots at this time. Brother Dan, support their Zishan City.
Now it seems that not only are there no Dan-Jie forces that agree to them, but one of their affiliated Dan-Jie forces is also asked to join forces with their Five Sacred Mountains Palace.
Being able to make such a decision also requires you to bear certain risks.
And he, Yu Qingyun, will not let such a risk arise. He wants to show other Danjie forces that it is right to defect to their Five Sacred Mountains Palace and contribute to the elimination of Zishan City. There will be benefits.
The extent of the benefits depends on how powerful the power is.
Such good news needs to be shared.
Soon, the Yuanying monks, including Li Qianqing, received news that the Baijing Lei Family, an affiliated force of Zishan City, was siding with their Five Sacred Mountains Palace.
This news can show that their operation in Wuyue Palace went smoothly.
In the minds of many of the alchemy-affiliated forces in Zishan City, it is likely that Zishan City will be destroyed by their Five Sacred Mountains Palace.
After the news came to Li Qianqing.
Li Qianqing had just finished practicing the second skill of the "Three Skills of Destroying Gods", the secret technique of spiritual consciousness.
“The second secret of the three secrets of God Destruction is finally complete.”
He spent a lot of time on the cultivation of the second secret, but it was all very worthwhile. After the second skill of "Three Divine Skills" has been cultivated to the level of Dacheng, now he has a lot of hope to directly kill the opponent's Yuanying even if he is facing a late-stage Nascent Soul monk who has a stronger spiritual consciousness than him.
Whether he can kill him smoothly depends on how well the monks in the later stage of Yuanying protect him. A surprise attack is the best for him. If the opponent has more protection measures, he wants to complete the kill. It also takes some effort. (End of this chapter)
