Chapter 1541: Thinking Through

The clout of major sects such as Taiyi Fantasy Sect was even greater than that of many imperial households in continents and subcontinents. Except that their heads were not emperors, these major sects had already reached the pinnacle of mundane sects. The heads of these major sects could even match the emperor and those lords and chancellors in Xuanyuan Hill in influence. In fact, those royal households in other continents and subcontinents could even be neglected by them.

‘In this case, what on earth do they root for Xuanyuan Infinity the third prince of Emperor Xuanyuan? In other words, what valuable things are worth such a great risk for them?’

Zhang Tie’s eye light turned profound unconsciously as he watched the heavenly knights of the major sects at present…

In the beginning, Zhang Tie thought Lord Guangnan loved Fang Xinyi purely which had nothing to do with age and social status. After knowing that Qionglou Pavilion was a member of Imperial Alliance, Zhang Tie realized Fang Xinyi’s real position and role of Fang Xinyi for Lord Guangnan.

‘Does Lord Guangnan know Imperial Alliance? After all, it was Imperial Alliance that exterminated the Great Wilderness Sect, which would definitely leave some clues. Given Lord Guangnan’s great influence in South Border, Lord Guangnan must have known the inside story of the extermination of Great Wilderness Sect. If so, Fang Xinyi might only serve as a compromise of Lord Guangnan to Imperial Alliance or a tacit agreement between two parties——Bai Suxian’s dad has completely known the background of Fang Xinyi. Therefore, Fang Xinyi might be an informer of the Imperial Alliance on Lord Guangnan’s side and the liaison between the two parties at critical moments.’

In this sense, Zhang Tie thought through many things at once.

‘Lord Guangnan must have seen too many kinds of women; but how could he seduce his daughter’s bosom friend? Lord Guangnan didn’t explain it to Bai Suxian because it’s involved with Imperial Alliance and of a great impact. It would not be good if Bai Suxian knew it. On the contrary, it would be good if Bai Suxian turned hostile against her and complained about him, which could better cover the public.’

In addition, Fang Xinyi officially married Lord Guangnan and became the queen after the news that Emperor Xuanyuan was missing spread across the world, which represented the official compromise and tacit agreement between Lord Guangnan’s Mansion and Imperial Alliance to a certain degree.

‘Given the response of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion after this underground space of Great Wilderness Sect in Centralpillar Mountain was discovered, Lord Guangnan must have long known that Imperial Alliance determined to get something from the underground palace and would dispatch a great batch of powerhouses here. Therefore, only the third uncle of Bai Suxian arrives here on behalf of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion. Not even a single heavenly knight has been dispatched here by Lord Guangnan’s Mansion, which appears that they were not that active at all.’

A couple of days ago, Zhang Tie was wondering that even though Lord Guangnan didn’t come here, that employed Yueyang Immortal of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion who would like to take Zhang Tie’s kid as his disciple should come here. However, Yueyang Immortal didn’t come here. By contrast, the founder of Jiang Clan arrived here out of curiosity. At that time, Zhang Tie even thought that Lord Guangnan had completely handed the things here to him on behalf of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion. However, given the current situation, Zhang Tie realized that Lord Guangnan’s Mansion just wanted to avoid conflict with the Imperial Alliance here and didn’t want to be used by the Imperial Alliance. Therefore, a shadow knight was the highest level that Lord Guangnan’s Mansion dispatched here.

A few days ago, Zhang Tie didn’t understand it. Now, he realized that the shadow knight dispatched by Lord Guangnan’s Mansion denoted that the sect was neutral in this event.

Given the overall strength of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion, although Bai Suxian’s third uncle was just a shadow knight, he might also get some benefits when necessary. Although Bai Suxian’s third uncle couldn’t match the powerhouses of the other major sects, he had definitely a vantage point over those independent, valiant knights. Furthermore, Zhan Tie could be his helper.

Given this point, Lord Guangnan should at least be neutral towards the next emperor of Taixia Country, Xuanyuan Infinity or Xuanyuan Changying. Previously, Lord Guangnan should favor Xuanyuan Changying, who, no matter what, was the orthodox heir of Emperor Xuanyuan. However, given the fact that Emperor Xuanyuan disappeared and the power displayed by Imperial Alliance and the current situation facing Taixia Country as a whole, Lord Guangnan had to consider about it. Instead of making a choice, he remained neutral. Nor did Imperial Alliance completely trust Lord Guangnan; therefore, they put Fang Xinyi on Lord Guangnan’s side as another guarantee.

This was a tacit agreement and compromise between Lord Guangnan’s Mansion and Imperial Alliance.

‘What a motherf*cking old fox! I was almost cheated by you!’ Zhang Tie swore his father-in-law inside loudly after thinking it through. ‘This old guy is too smart. If not I’ve already got the information about Imperial Alliance from late Immortal White Bones and figured out something here, I really wonder how long would the old guy cover it from me.’

‘Now that Lord Guangnan’s Mansion remains neutral, I wonder about the attitudes of the other lords’ mansions in Taixia Country and whether do they know Imperial Alliance or not?’

When he thought about the power displayed by Imperial Alliance and the possible catastrophe caused by different forces for scrambling for the throne of Emperor Xuanyuan, Zhang Tie couldn’t stand feeling grim inside as he gritted his teeth.

When Zhang Tie was thinking about it, Treasureflame Immortal the deputy head of Demons-kill Valley had shown his dissatisfaction about the mannered overwhelming deed of Taiyi Fantasy Sect, Heavens Holding Pavilion and Qionglou Pavilion. Soon after that goddamned old witch of Qionglou Pavilion finished her words, Treasureflame Immortal had burst into laughter as he released his surging war intention. At the same time, a terrifying strong qi of heavenly knight appeared to him. Watching the other heavenly knights at present, Treasureflame Immortal said with a sneer, “What you want to do has nothing to do with us Demons-kill Valley. We Demons-kill Valley would come and leave free. We would not take away anything that doesn’t belong to us; however, if something belongs to us, even Emperor Xuanyuan couldn’t take it away from us…”

“What do you mean, Treasureflame Immortal?” Swords Immortal’s voice turned cold at once.

“I mean our Demons-kill Valley pursues truth in terms of killing. We fight and kill until death. This is also the lifetime faith of our Demons-kill Valley. In this world, except that our Demons-kill Valley could set rules for ourselves, nobody else could do that for us. If we find something here, we will take it away, whatever it is. If anyone else would like to set rules and talk about reasons for us, you should ask whether the sabers and swords in the hands of the knights of Demons-kill Valley agree with it or not…”

“Kill…kill…kill…” Soon after Treasureflame Immortal finished his words, all the disciples of Demons-kill Valley behind him roared in unison while some of them directly released their battle qi smokes and tornadoes.

The atmosphere across the Dongtian of Great Wilderness Sect became intense all of a sudden…
