Upon hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s words, Heavenly Lord Purple Flame and the other three nodded.
“That’s right. Looking at the current situation, joining forces with the Sect of Infinite Boundaries to fight against the Eastern End and the Central Plain is our best choice.
However, this matter is of great importance after all. Therefore, we need to seek your opinion.
If you don’t agree, we naturally need to discuss this matter again.”
As Heavenly Lord Purple Flame and the others finished speaking, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan could clearly sense it.
On the side, the expressions of Perfected Lord Glowleaf and the others clearly became a little nervous.
It was as if they were afraid that they would hear a different opinion from the four Heavenly Lords.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan could understand that.
If their roles were reversed, they would also have similar worries.
However, they were clearly thinking too much.
In the current situation, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan naturally wouldn’t reject such a suggestion.
Clearly, they were also very aware that if they rejected the Sect of Infinite Boundaries’ request, they could potentially turn their allies into enemies.
Of course, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan would not do such a thing.
So in the next moment, Jiang Chengxuan said,
“My wife and I have no objections to this matter.
However, I personally feel that we can discuss the details after Sect Master Dongfang arrives.”
Upon hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s words, Shui Xianlan, Perfected Lord Glowleaf, and the others present heaved a sigh of relief.
Heavenly Lord Purple Flame and the other three smiled and nodded.
“Of course.”
With that, Heavenly Lord Purple Flame turned to Shui Xianlan and said,
“Fairy Shui, you can tell your Shifu about this matter. Tell them that our Northern Border has already agreed to the alliance.
However, we still have to wait for your Shifu to arrive before we can discuss the details of the alliance.”
“Yes, Senior Purple Flame.”
Shui Xianlan immediately complied respectfully.
Then, she bowed to everyone present. In front of Jiang Chengxuan and the others, she took out the communication jade talisman that belonged to the Sect of Infinite Boundaries and sent a message to her Shifu, Dongfang Tianxing.
After a while.
Shui Xianlan’s communication jade talisman lit up.
She looked at everyone present and said respectfully,
“Seniors, my Shifu said that he will arrive at the Northern Border soon.
At that time, he will discuss the details of the alliance with the seniors.”
“Good!”
Jiang Chengxuan, Heavenly Lord Purple Flame and the others nodded slightly.
After that.
Shui Xianlan and the others were very tactful and did not stay any longer.
After they left, Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Heavenly Lord Purple Flame, and Heavenly Lord Xuan Yang discussed some details and decided on a general direction.
A day passed in the blink of an eye.
Heavenly Lord Purple Flame, Heavenly Lord Xuan Yang, Heavenly Lord Everlasting Mountain, and Heavenly Lord Infinite Ocean didn’t leave Mount Mystic Tai.
Instead, they all stayed behind to wait for the Sect Master of the Sect of Infinite Boundaries, Dongfang Tianxing, to arrive.
Swoosh, swoosh—
At this moment, an extremely powerful ray of light suddenly flew toward Mount Mystic Tai from the distant sky.
Sensing the aura of this light, Jiang Chengxuan and the Heavenly Lords all flew to the sky above Mount Mystic Tai.
Shui Xianlan, Perfected Lord Glowleaf, and the others, who were temporarily residing in the Jiang family, followed suit.
They looked at the streak of light that was rapidly approaching from afar, and joy appeared on the faces of Perfected Lord Glowleaf and the others.
“Shifu!”
They could not help but exclaim in surprise.
Jiang Chengxuan and the others’ expressions changed slightly as they looked at the light from afar.
After the light was about a thousand miles away from Mount Mystic Tai, it gradually began to slow down, revealing Dongfang Tianxing’s figure.
Before he arrived, Dongfang Tianxing’s hearty laughter came from afar.
“I am the Sect Leader of the Sect of Infinite Boundaries, Dongfang Tianxing. Greetings, fellow Daoists.”
As he spoke, Dongfang Tianxing cupped his fists at everyone.
Seeing this, Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Heavenly Lord Purple Flame and the others returned the greeting.
When Dongfang Tianxing approached, Heavenly Lord Purple Flame smiled.
“Fellow Daoist Dongfang, you’re finally here.
Let me introduce them to you. These are all my fellow cultivators in the Northern Border.”
Clearly.
From the looks of it, Heavenly Lord Purple Flame and Dongfang Tianxing were clearly old acquaintances.
After Heavenly Lord Purple Flame finished introducing the two parties,
Dongfang Tianxing immediately looked at Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
“So you two are Fellow Daoist Jiang and Fellow Daoist Shen.
I’ve heard of the two of you before. Now that I’ve seen you, you really live up to your reputation.”
“Hehe, Sect Master Dongfang, you flatter me.”
Jiang Chengxuan immediately shook his head with a smile.
“Sect Master Dongfang has come from afar. If you have anything to say, let’s go to the main hall first.”
As he spoke, Jiang Chengxuan extended his hand and made an inviting gesture. Soon.
Led by Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, they arrived at the Jiang family’s reception hall.
“Fellow Daoist Dongfang, I believe the people from the Eastern End and Central Plain have already sent you a message before you came, right?”
At that moment, Heavenly Lord Purple Flame asked Dongfang Tianxing.
Dongfang Tianxing did not hide anything and nodded his head.
“That’s right. Before I came here, the people from the Eastern End and Central Plain did send a message to my sect.
They ask me to give up all resistance and submit to them.”
As expected.
Heavenly Lord Purple Flame and Jiang Chengxuan’s hearts skipped a beat.
Dongfang Tianxing continued, “But I didn’t agree to them.
After all, many things in the past had proven that if we really submitted to the Great Ling Imperial Palace, it would not end well.
Instead of that, I might as well fight them with you.”
This was a decision Dongfang Tianxing had made before he came.
This made Jiang Chengxuan and everyone present praise Dongfang Tianxing’s boldness and courage.
One had to know that before this, the Northern Border didn’t give Dongfang Tianxing a definite answer.
However, he made his decision first before he even came, leaving no way out for himself.
That was probably the main reason why Shui Xianlan was so nervous when she was facing Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan yesterday.
“In that case, let’s discuss the details of the alliance.”
Finally.
As the hosts, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan spoke.
Hearing their words, Dongfang Tianxing and Heavenly Lord Purple Flame turned to look at them.
Shen Ruyan smiled.
“In my opinion, if possible, try not to place the battlefield in the Western Desert where you are, Sect Master Dongfang.”
“Huh?”
Hearing Shen Ruyan’s words, everyone was stunned.
However, Dongfang Tianxing quickly reacted and could not help but say in surprise,
“Fellow Daoist Shen, you said to try not to put the battlefield in the Western Desert.
“Are you intending to…?”
“That’s right.”
Shen Ruyan nodded.
“I think, given the current situation, we can push the battle line forward, placing it in the range of the Abyss of Celestial Beasts.”
“Place it in the Abyss of Celestial Beasts?”
Hearing her suggestion, everyone present could not help but be shocked.
At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan’s voice suddenly rang out.
“Everyone, don’t forget, it hasn’t been a hundred years since the end of the Demonic Calamity.”
■Well…’
Reminded by him, everyone came to a realization.
Indeed.
It hasn’t even been a hundred years since the end of the Demonic Calamity.
During this period, the human race will be free from the harrassment from the demons.
At this time, as long as they don’t provoke the demon race, the demon race wouldn’t dare to engage in any direct conflict with them.
Even if the demons in the Abyss of Celestial Beasts knew that they were starting a war there, they could not do anything to them.
Most importantly, this strategy would prevent the Western Desert from being directly affected by the war.
Even if there were any impacts, it would be confined to the Abyss of Celestial Beasts and its demons, causing no harm to their human race or the Western Desert.
“That’s a good idea.”
Dongfang Tianxing couldn’t help but show a hint of joy on his face.
If this could really be implemented, it would be beneficial without any harm to their Western Desert.
After all, in wars of such a scale, it was inevitable for Soul Formation Heavenly Lords to intervene.
Once that happens, the destruction to their world would be tremendous and irreversible.
It’s said that where the Supreme Celestial Sect is based, it has become a wasteland.
Within tens of thousands of miles, there’s no spiritual qi, no life.
It’s a terrifying scene.
As long as there was the slightest possibility, Dongfang Tianxing would do his best to avoid such a scene appearing in the Western Desert.
“In that case, may I ask who will come to the Western Desert to provide support?”
Dongfang Tianxing asked his most concerned question.
After all, in a war between two sides, it would be impossible for his sect alone to withstand the combined forces of the Eastern End and the Central Plain.
Only with support from the Northern Border could they possibly stand against the joint forces of the Eastern End and the Central Plain.
Hearing Dongfang Tianxing’s question, the Heavenly Lords present exchanged glances.
Finally, Shen Ruyan smiled and said,
“For this battle, my husband and I, along with Everlasting Mountain and Infinite Ocean, will go to your Western Desert for support.
With you, Sect Master Dongfang, and your esteemed wife, our combined strength of six should be enough to withstand the first wave of attacks from the Eastern End and Central Plain near the Abyss of Celestial Beasts, especially if we prepare in advance.
What do you think, Sect Master Dongfang?”
