Chapter 413: 360

Translator: 549690339

Zhao Baiyang didn’t come to visit Tie Qianshan as a friend, but with a purpose.

At his repeated inquiries, Tie Qianshan hesitated, not immediately providing a response.

As Pei Xuanjing conjectured, although Zhao Baiyang had kept a low profile in these years, he never stopped his actions. He incorporated Diamond Gate under his command, gathered parts of the Yinsi’s power, and even integrated several branches of the White Lotus Sect, greatly increasing his strength.

He was here to invite him to join the alliance he was about to initiate: The Heretical Alliance.

“Hehe, I really don’t understand what you, brother Tie, are hesitating about?” Zhao Baiyang looked at the indecisive Tie Qianshan and sneered: “Considering the current state of affairs, can’t you see through it with your wisdom? Do you think you alone can protect Tie Sect?”

Tie Qianshan remained silent, he also knew that Zhao Baiyang’s words were not wrong.

If the union of several major sects of the Taoist School was just the beginning, then the merger of the Demonic Cult, Buddhism School, and the family alliances after the revival of Heaven and Earth undoubtedly pushed this kind of alliance to the peak.

Besides, countless medium and small forces are not willing to be left behind. They are also seeking to unite, in order to have more assurance to survive in the upcoming situation, or even to advance one step further.

Not to mention other places, only on the Northwest Dao, countless forces have openly or secretly united. As a great power on the Northwest Dao, Tie Sect has also received numerous olive branches from other forces.

Tie Qianshan understood that if the Tie Sect did not make a decision immediately, they would likely be isolated and abandoned, becoming the cannon fodder of the times.

Just as he was preparing to respond, Zhao Baiyang once again ascended Tie Zhangshan and invited him personally.

However, facing the invitation from his once ‘close friend’, Tie Qianshan was somewhat hesitant and dared not make a decision lightly.

“Nowadays, the Mire Sect has indeed strengthened its strength by incorporating the Diamond Gate, Yinsi and several branches of the White Lotus Sect. It is almost on par with the top alliances. However, I, Tie, have been puzzled for a while and I wonder if you can answer the question.” Tie Qianshan sighed and spoke up.

“Hmm?” Hearing Tie Qianshan’s hesitation, Zhao Baiyang was not angry, but his eyes were smiling.

As they say, only buyers complain about the goods.

If Tie Qianshan had no intention of joining, he would have refused outright. However, since he raised doubts, it showed that he had considered joining. If he could dispel his doubts, everything would fall into place.

“Brother Tie, feel free to ask.” Zhao Baiyang said with a smile.

Tie Qianshan didn’t shy away and directly spoke: “Your Mire Sect is gathering with the Diamond Gate and Yinsi, who are both deeply hated by the Great Ming dynasty. The Yinsi is also despised in the martial arts world. This congregation, I’m afraid, will unleash suppression from many parties.”

The Mire Sect, Diamond Gate and Yinsi. The alliance of these three forces is not small, but there are also many enemies and opponents. If the Tie Sect were to join, it would probably become the target of many, making Tie Qianshan apprehensive.

After all, although Tie Sect is not on par with top-tier forces, it is a dominant power in the Northwest Dao. If it wants to join somewhere, it will surely be wooed. Joining this Heretical Alliance may be too risky.

Hearing Tie Qianshan’s concerns, Zhao Baiyang twitched his mouth, indeed the other party was worried about this problem.

This was the biggest obstacle he encountered when inviting others. Indeed, by incorporating these people, his strength increased, but he also had to undertake their enemies, especially Yinsi, being a killer organization in the martial arts world. They had made many enemies, and this would be all counted towards him in the future.

However, he already had a solution to this problem, so there was no need to worry too much.

“Rest assured, brother Tie, I already have a solution. If this is what you are worried about, then be at ease!” Zhao Baiyang confidently said.

Aside from Zhao Baiyang and Tie Qianshan on Tie Zhangshan, other factions had also received Pei Xuanjing’s invitations.

Demonic Cult, Xue Wuheng playing with the invitation in his hand, his expression was cold, hard to tell whether he was pleased or angry.

Even though the Demonic Cult was shattered by Master Sanfeng six hundred years ago, being able to reunify it again, even if it relied on the factor of Pei Xuanjing and the coincidence of Heaven and Earth’s revival, Xue Wuheng’s capabilities cannot be underestimated.

This formidable figure of the Demonic Cult, even though he keeps a low profile in the martial arts world, other powers cannot dare to belittle him, especially Buddhism School and True Martial Sect, powers that have substantial enmity with the Demonic Cult, kept a close eye on him.

After the reunification of the Demonic Cult, he took advantage of the liaison of the elder of the Blood Demon Sect to make amends to Pei Xuanjing, indicating that he did not want to be enemies with him. This was all because of the factor of Buddhism School and True Martial Sect.

Those in the Demonic Cult who believed that Pei Xuanjing had a deep relationship with True Martial Sect and irreconcilable with them were suppressed by Xue Wuheng.

The people did not know that if he did not have some concerns, Xue Wuheng would even want to put aside the feud with True Martial Sect.

If it wasn’t for the revival of Heaven and Earth, they would have no future to speak of, and it wouldn’t matter to continue entanglement with True Martial Sect.

But now, after the revival of Heaven and Earth, the future is vast. How could Xue Wuheng want to delay his future over some old affairs?

Thus, after Pei Xuanjing came out of seclusion, found out that he had been deceived, and demanded compensation, Xue Wuheng did not hesitate to agree.

However, this one invitation made Xue Wuheng somewhat hesitant.

“This meeting at Shenxiao Mountain is inevitably not simple and is feared to be related to the issue of the Great Ming marching outside the border.” Xue Wuheng speculated in his heart. “Although I don’t know why Pei Xuanjing is so eager to take action, his actions like this will certainly require some benefits; otherwise, no one would support him, and some people might even impede him.”

As for the matter of the Great Ming sending troops outside the border, all the factions actually had an idea. After all, the army of one million, trained by the Minister of the Ministry of War, Wang Qiong, can’t just be for decoration.

Moreover, the ministers of the Taoist School, including Pei Xuanjing, were promoting this matter, which was very clear to the people like Xue Wuheng.

Although they did not know what the benefits the Taoist School was plotting, but based on the principle that not profiting is a loss, they secretly had an understanding that if the Taoist School wanted to monopolize, they would definitely not let it go.
