Anyone who wants me to kneel is my enemy.
As Xiao Chen finished speaking, everyone had different reactions.
Some people's blood boiled, some people's expressions changed slightly, and some people were thoughtful...
Xiao Chen took their reactions into his eyes, sighed slightly in his heart, and softened his tone a little: "This is my attitude, and it is also Longmen's attitude... This is not the first time I have expressed my stance, and it will not be the last."
"No one wants to kneel, not even my Lingxiao Sect."
Jiang Lingyun looked at Xiao Chen and said slowly.
"Master Xiao, I discussed my attitude and the attitude of the Lingxiao Sect with you last time in Longhai."
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Master Jiang, I think we can find a time to continue our conversation as we didn't finish it last time."
"Last time, my Xuantian Sect also participated."
Xuankong added.
"What did you talk about?"
Someone asked curiously.
"Build an alliance."
Jiang Lingyun replied.
"Establish an alliance?"
Most of those who were unaware of the situation looked surprised.
Both the Lingxiao Sect and the Xuantian Sect are major forces in the ancient martial arts world.
Not to mention, there is also the newly rising Longmen, which is quietly becoming the number one force!
Three forces, are you going to form an alliance?
It is no exaggeration to say that these three forces can almost sweep the ancient martial arts world!
"This alliance is to deal with the outer world."
Xuantian looked at everyone and spoke slowly.
"Just like what Xiao Xiaoyou said just now, we in Xuantian Sect don't want to live on our knees... If someone forces us to live on our knees, then they are our enemy."
Although everyone already had guesses, they were still quite uneasy when they heard Xuankong say this.
Do even forces like Longmen, Lingxiao Sect, and Xuantian Sect need to form an alliance when facing Tianwaitian?
What about them?
What should they do if someone forces them to kneel?
Live on your knees?
Or should I fight to the end, even if I die standing?
"My Xiao family is also in this alliance."
Xiao Yi spoke at the right time.
He knew the purpose of Xiao Chen calling them together today, and the two had discussed it before.
As the ancestor of the Xiao family, he will naturally cooperate with Xiao Chen.
The first step of this trip is to expand the influence of the alliance.
It would be best if we could attract a large number of strong people to join this alliance.
Xiao Chen had done this before, using both deception and trickery to get many strong people to join Longmen.
If it weren’t for this, it might take some time for Longmen to become the number one force in the ancient martial arts world.
Before, Xiao Chen persuaded the strong men to join Longmen, also with the intention of dealing with Tianwaitian.
But then he thought about it and realized that joining Longmen had its limitations.
This is because there are sectarianism in the ancient martial arts world. For example, Wu Cheng was originally the old Palace Master of the Seven Stars Palace. Normally, it would be impossible for him to join Longmen as an elder.
In the end, Wu Cheng agreed because Xiao Chen took out the "Return to Origin Divine Art" and he felt that he owed Xiao Chen a favor, so he joined Longmen.
Otherwise, no matter how much Xiao Chen could fool people, it would be impossible.
Therefore, Xiao Chen was thinking about how to break down the sectarianism and gather more powerful people.
Building alliances is a good way to do this.
However, whether the allies are trustworthy still needs to be examined... The first step before this is to get as many powerful people and forces as possible to join in.
At that time, we can slowly screen out true allies and eliminate those with ulterior motives.
In addition, everyone who can come to the Nangong family today basically knows what Xiao Chen’s attitude towards Tianwaitian is.
In this case, the fact that they still came is enough to say something.
Of course, there are definitely people with ulterior motives hiding among them, but most people... have the same attitude as Xiao Chen.
For example, Jiang Lingyun and Xuan Kong, not only did Long Hai say that they would not kneel, but he also said it in public today.
Based on this sentence, Xiao Chen felt that his trust in the two people could be improved a little.
"The Ye family will also join."
Ye Xing said slowly that their Ye family and Xiao Chen had been in the same boat for a long time.
“…”
Ye Tianlong opened his mouth. He originally wanted to say this, but with the Xiantian ancestor around, he, the old patriarch, had to step back.
"Haha, how can my Nangong family kneel down?"
Nangong Ting smiled.
"Master Xiao, I was there when Long Hai discussed the alliance."
Ximen Ping looked at Xiao Chen and said.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Well, you all know what happened at Cangxia Cliff...My Qingyan Sect and Qingyun Tower are irreconcilable."
Fang Liang coughed and spoke slowly.
"We share the same view as Patriarch Xiao. Not all people outside the Heavens are enemies, but those who make us kneel are our enemies."
"Who wants to kneel when they can stand? Do you still need your allies?"
"I have practiced hard for my entire life to become a congenitally strong man... I have never knelt in my life."
“…”
The rest of the people also spoke at the same time.
"Where's Senior Yang?"
Xiao Chen looked at the Sun Venerable, who had remained silent.
“Haha, Patriarch Xiao is indeed a peerless genius. Not only did he establish Longmen, he also formed an alliance to fight against Tianwaitian…”
Sun Reverend chuckled.
"But I think it's not that easy to form an alliance, right?"
"Yeah, it's not easy."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"The premise of an alliance is to share the same ideals..."
"Like-minded, well said."
The Sun Reverend smiled even more.
"I should know more about Tianwaitian than you do, because I have been to Tianwaitian three times..."
Hearing what Sun Zun said, everyone was shocked. He had been to the Heaven Beyond Heaven? And three times?
"During these years of seclusion, I have also been to the outer world... About ten years ago, I came back again."
Reverend Sun continued.
"It's similar to the ancient martial arts world, but also different... Compared to the larger environment, it's actually more cruel."
"All known teleportation arrays have people from the Dragon King. How did Senior Yang get there?"
Xiao Chen looked at Sun Zun and asked with a frown.
He didn't think that Venerable Sun would go from the no-man's land to the outer heaven... a place where one could hardly survive without a single death, three times?
Not likely.
Hearing this, everyone looked over. Yes, how did he go?
"Back then, the Sun Moon Sect discovered a teleportation array that could lead to the Heaven Beyond Heaven..."
Reverend Sun said slowly.
“…”
Everyone's eyes widened. The Sun Moon Sect had a teleportation array that could go to the Heaven Beyond Heaven?
"Unfortunately, the teleportation array collapsed later, so the last time, I came out from Wangling Mountain."
After Sun Zun finished speaking, he looked at Xiao Chen.
"You can ask the current Dragon Lord about this matter. He knows about it."
Xiao Chen frowned. Does Mr. Long know?
Since Venerable Ri said so, then it should be credible, and there is no need to lie to him.
Otherwise, he could ask Master Long and he would be able to see through the lie.
But the first half is pretty true.
That teleportation array, did it really collapse?
He was not surprised that there was an unknown teleportation array that could lead to the world beyond heaven.
The old fortune teller had told him before that China is so big, who knows where the teleportation array left behind might be in some corner.
There were many teleportation arrays back then, and although most of them were destroyed, there might have been some missed.
Not only in China, some independent spaces may also have teleportation arrays leading to the outer world... For example, the one in Guiyuan Realm is possible.
Furthermore, Xiao Chen suspected that Xiao Sheng went to Tianwaitian. If he didn’t go through Wangling Mountain or the uninhabited area, how did he get there?
Therefore, the teleportation array definitely exists, it’s just very hidden.
"In the past, the existence of Tianwai Tian was a secret. Not only did Tianwai Tian want to hide this secret, but the ancient martial arts world also did so. Everyone knew it tacitly."
Reverend Sun said this, his eyes sweeping across the entire audience.
"Everyone present here basically has a lot of influence in the ancient martial arts world... This secret is not really a secret to you, right?"
“…”
The silence of Jiang Lingyun and others was indeed not a secret, as they had known it for a long time.
But Zhao Lao Mo felt that he was hurt. What does "basic" mean? He is not within the "basic"?
In other words, he couldn't beat him, otherwise he would have used his black steel claws to smash a few holes in the old guy's head.
"Tianwaitian has been planning for many years, and each has its own purpose... Sect Master Xiao just said that whoever makes us kneel is the enemy, and the same is true for my Sun Moon Divine Sect."
When Reverend Sun said this, he looked at Xiao Chen.
"But has Patriarch Xiao ever thought about one thing? Certain forces in the Heavenly World will not necessarily make us kneel, but... those who go against us will die."
"Those who oppose me will die..."
Xiao Chen frowned, he understood what Master Ri meant.
"For example, Qingyun Tower, they used Qingyan Sect's layout to achieve their goal..."
Reverend Ri looked at Fang Liang again.
“…”
Fang Liang's face looked a little ugly. This matter was not very glorious.
"Qing Ming doesn't care about the life or death of Qing Yan Sect for this... and some forces are planning to give the ancient martial arts forces sweet benefits to make them work for them."
When Venerable Ri said this, he took a sip of tea.
"At this time, if you don't kneel, you can still get benefits... I wonder how many ancient martial arts forces can resist this temptation?"
“…”
Xiao Chen thought of Xingxiu Island. For the time being, it seemed to be the case.
They talked to him about cooperation and promised him many benefits.
However, he never agreed.
“We cannot generalize about the forces outside the Heavens… The general environment has changed. Many forces outside the Heavens are about to emerge. This is a general trend that cannot be stopped.”
The Venerable Ri put down the bowl.
"Master Xiao also said just now that the premise of an alliance is to share the same ideals... In fact, there are some forces in the outer world that can become allies."
Xiao Chen looked at the Sun Reverend. What force was behind the Sun Moon Sect?
Lord Ri, are you coming to him for cooperation?
"Why do I feel like this old guy is here to mess things up?"
Old Demon Zhao whispered to Thunder God.
Then, he saw Reverend Sun looking at him, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart and shut up.
"I understand what Senior Yang means."
Xiao Chen's thoughts flashed through his mind and he smiled.
"However, we don't know much about Tianwaitian now. The only thing we can do is to prepare in advance..."
"Haha, I'm just giving you a reminder."
The Sun Reverend also smiled.
"Cooperation is based on equality between both parties... Kneeling is not cooperation! This is the same idea as that of Patriarch Xiao."
